Chapter 158 - Chapter 158: The Reason Theyre Hungry (1) (1/2)

As soon as the call ended, he thought he ry call fro tiot was a busy tone on the other end

‘……This is scarier than her being angry’

Maybe she is extrery, or perhaps,he could do since there was no response whether he called or sent a text

“Hey, what should I do? Kaya th is not even strong enough to handle soive up living in society”

“……You cold-hearted bastard”

“If I really was cold-hearted, I would not have let you out of your slave contract after just one day”

Jo Minjoon could only sigh in silence after listening to Anderson Why did Anderson have to drag him into this

“Are you going to ain today?”

“I’ht time, it doesn’t look like ould stop for breakfast anywhere; it ht be better to just make it on our own But we should probably ask everybody else as well Since it is our last one, theyit on our own”

“……Wouldn’t it take too long to go to a restaurant? Wefrom a convenience store”

“Then let’s just sleep in Since we don’t have enough time”

“I suppose”

However, seven hours later, at 5:00a face to face in the kitchen Anderson, who had just coh the door, had a ‘I knew this would happen’ expression on his face before speaking

“Didn’t you say let’s sleep in?”

“Yes……but I could not fall asleep”

“I heard your alar off earlier Even if you try to look like you’re so sleepy you ht die, do you think I would believe you?”

At Anderson’s deduction, Jo Minjoon aardly looked around Anderson let out a laugh Even though he lied, it was hard to be angry at him

“You idiot Whatever Let’s justyou’d like to cook?”

“Seeing as how you’re asking, sounds like you have so you want to cook”

“Yes There were s I felt at Tokyo Harmony yesterday First……”

Jo Minjoon opened the refrigerator There were quite a few different items in there, but maybe because they redients that were lacking Jo Minjoon looked at Anderson and asked

“Let’s go shopping”

Even though it was already summer, at dawn, before the sun had even started to coround were both cold Jo Minjoon pulled the zipper on his cardigan all the way up and put his hand in his pockets He shook his body trying to warm up

“Ah, it’s cold I shouldn’t have worn these shorts”

“In the first place, you are wearing a long sleeve and a cardigan Why would you wear shorts? Did you not expect it to be cold?”

“I thought the heat from the top would balance with the chill from the botto, the balance between cold and hot must be very important”

“Well, we are chefs after all This type of habit isn’t bad”

“Not bad but cold”

Anderson shook his head left and right Then, as if he could not hold back anymore, he started to speak

“Hey an around your waist”

“……Ah Anderson I didn’t know before, but you’re actually kind of smart”

Anderson’s cheeks started to turn red at Jo Minjoon’s response

Market Jo Minjoon opened hisat the fish available on display

“For restaurants, do you think there are places that get their ingredients froe supermarkets rather than street et their stuff froo to a street ht by theo make direct contracts with fish suppliers At our place, each ingredient is procured directly fro place to place, looking at the quality of the ingredients Wouldn’t it feel like you were playing a puzzle game?”

Jo Minjoon started to s about it was fun Anderson raised an eyebrow and looked towards Jo Minjoon

“Why are you looking at me like that”

“……The , you ros like that How are you like that? You knohat you need to kno You know it isn’t just a relaxed and cushy job and that behind the glitz and glanificant amount of stress Look at Sa as him cared so much about our opinions, even if it may have been for the camera It’s a difficult job A painful one too”

“Of course I know Why wouldn’t I know?”

Jo Minjoon stopped looking at the face of a Pacific saury and turned his gaze towards Anderson When their eyes met, Anderson shi+vered for a second Half a year No enerally understand as in someone’s mind

But every so often, there were times like this when Jo Minjoon showed him an expression that was hard to understand It was like he was an elder who had aze was full of sweetness and affection

‘……Maybe it’s because he had planned on beco a teacher?’

There was no time to come up with an answer Jo Minjoon opened his mouth

“But Anderson Even that difficulty is entertaining for me Of course, in the moment, my chest feels stuffy and it is painful, but maybe it’s because work and play is the saets tensewhat I’ht reat to be full”

“I’m sure you’re full too You’re just like me”

Anderson briefly opened his mouth at Jo Minjoon’s words Jo Minjoon looked like he had some confirmation about Anderson, but initially, Anderson did not have that confirmation Anderson hesitantly opened his mouth

“What……just what is it that you believe in me?”

“Passion”

There was no hesitation in that answer Anderson looked at Jo Minjoon after hearing him speak as if it was an obvious answer

“My……passion?”
