Chapter 2 Prince No. 1 Store

When Lee Min-joo hurried to the cafe and saw the person sitting in front of his nephew Lee Sung-hyun, she said unexpectedly: "Park Jin-tae? Why are you here? Sung-hyun, was he who signed the contract with you?"

‘Aunt, do you know Editor Park?’

Looking at his aunt who looked unexpected, Lee Sung-hyun was actually even more surprised. And there was another surprise, naturally the website editor Park Jin-tae. He didn't seem to have expected that Lee Sung-hyun's aunt would be Lee Min-joo, the powerful female lawyer.

Seeing that both aunts and nephews were very surprised, Park Jin-tae also stood up and smiled and said, "Hello, Lawyer Lee! We're meeting again! I really didn't expect that Sage Xi is your nephew. This time, it was indeed me who signed a contract with Sage Xi, which was just a good thing!"

After hearing Lee Min-joo, Park Jin-tae also briefly explained the contract with Lee Sung-hyun today. When he heard that his nephew thought about online novels, Lee Min-joo was even more surprised.

He said with a curious look: "Sage, did you write that book "Coffee Prince No. 1 Store"?"

Li Minzhu, who usually pays attention to some lively topics on the Internet, occasionally goes online to read books.

She has always been paying attention to this online novel of "Coffee Prince No. 1 Store". But she never expected that the author, whose pseudonym "Man is not a sage", was actually her nephew.

Facing his aunt's incredibleness, Lee Sung-hyun blushed a little and said, "Yes! When I first came to Seoul, I didn't like going out. When I came here to have coffee, I suddenly had the story of "No. 1 Store" and thought about writing it out.

At that time, I just wanted to find something to do to pass the time, but I didn’t expect it to attract such great attention. However, now that I live independently, I should support myself. I feel a little embarrassed to spend your money all the time!"

‘Ah! You guy, are you still so flirting with your aunt?’

Li Shengxian, who was beaten up, naturally did not dare to say anything in front of this powerful aunt. He also knew that since his parents passed away, these relatives in the family were afraid that he would do something stupid after he was unable to think about it.

As long as he speaks about what he wants, his relatives will find a way to buy it for him. Even if Lee Sung-hyun wants to live alone in Seoul, he is worried about his grandparents who come here, and finally agree to him to come to Seoul.

The whole family has only one purpose. I hope that this Li Shengxian, who has lost his cheerful laughter on his face, can regain his past self. But in Li Shengxian's opinion, it is so difficult to find what he has lost!

Lee Min-joo, who learned about the incident, quickly took the contract from Park Jin-tae and looked at it. She found that there were no contract traps, so she handed it to Lee Sung-hyun and said, "Look at this contract, are there anything that needs to be changed?"

Li Shengxian, who also looked carefully, was not surprised by the sharing of physical publishing. However, when he saw the post behind, he frowned and said, "Can he change it by cooperating with the website promotion and conducting a signing meeting?"

Although it was the first time that this happened to happen, Li Shengxian still knew that some authors would cooperate with the website to conduct some signing meetings after publishing books. But Li Shengxian is not used to too lively scenes now.

‘Sage Xi, the signing meeting is also a good publicity channel for the author. Every time the signing meeting, we will arrange for reporters to follow up and report. It is still very helpful for enhancing your fame.’

Park Jin-tae, who didn't understand why Lee Sung-hyun resisted such a good thing so much, still explained it in a timely manner. However, Lee Sung-hyun didn't seem to care much about this good thing that ordinary authors would not refuse.

‘Editor Park, I am still a student. I applied to study at home with the school, and I also applied under the name of not being used to the classroom teaching environment. I am not used to such lively occasions. So, can this article be modified?

Of course, if a book fan asks me for my signature, you can give me the book. I will meet the conditions of these book fans. As for the signing meeting, I still don’t adapt to it. In that case, it will affect my emotional and physical recovery.’

Just when Park Jin-tae felt very puzzled, Lee Min-joo quickly said, "Editor Park, just remove this one! You don't have to hold a signing party, you can save a lot of publicity for your website.

My nephew’s situation is a bit special, and I hope your website will consider it. If Editor Park is in a dilemma, I can call your President Kim. I believe that he will give me some face on this issue."

In fact, when Lee Min-joo appeared, Park Jin-tae realized that when signing a contract with Lee Sung-hyun, the website could not take any advantage. The reason is very simple. Lee Min-joo's identity is not as simple as a lawyer.

So Park Jin-tae quickly smiled and said, "Okay, since it involves the physical recovery of Sage XI, I can make the decision to avoid this and don't disturb President Kim. When the contract is signed, I will report to him when I go back."

As Lee Sung-hyun had no other opinion, he signed his name on the signing contract, Lee Min-joo quickly filled in his name in the guardian column. Park Jin-tae was also in time and handed a copy of the stamped contract to Lee Sung-hyun.

After signing the contract, Park Jin-tae stood up shortly after waiting and said, "Lawyer Lee, Sage XI, the company still has something to deal with, so I will take the lead. I will contact you again when the books are officially released."

After shaking hands and saying goodbye, he looked at Park Jin-tae who left the cafe and Lee Min-joo who sat down again, and said with some concern: "Sage, aren't you used to staying in a crowded place now?"

For Li Minzhu, Li Shengxian's physical and mental recovery is the most important. She originally wanted to take Li Shengxian to see a psychiatrist, but she was worried that she would touch Li Shengxian's sensitive and fragile nerves. In the end, she still chose to let Li Shengxian adjust slowly.

‘No, I just think I will not be able to adapt to that kind of occasion. Anyway, writing books is just a little interest in me. In a short period of time, I never thought about not being famous. Moreover, I was afraid that I would deceive them in school.

After all, I applied for self-study at home in the name of physical rehabilitation. If the school knew that I would not go to school to attend classes, but I was doing some signing and signing sessions outside. I was afraid that the school would not agree to continue self-study at home, right?’

I understand that Li Minzhu is still very concerned about his physical and mental recovery. Lee Sung-hyun, who doesn't want her to worry, quickly came up with a reason to persuade and comfort. In fact, he is really not very used to too lively occasions.

When you usually go shopping, Li Shengxian will choose time with relatively few traffic. Although this kind of lone life is a bit lonely, Li Shengxian feels that there is no pressure, but he is more quiet and comfortable.

Li Min-joo, who rushed over, didn't stay in the cafe for too long. As one of the few well-known female lawyers in the Seoul legal profession, there are still many clients who look for her. Seeing that she had something to do, Lee Sung-hyun asked her to go to work first.

Li Shengxian, who was alone in the cafe, saw that lunch time was coming, and there were more customers in the originally quiet cafe. He packed up his things, quickly left the cafe, and returned to his residence by the Han River with his computer bag on his back.

This one-bedroom and three-living house was also purchased and decorated by Lee Sung-hyun's father during his lifetime. Although Lee Sung-hyun's family rarely returned to Korea before, they also purchased this house, and occasionally returning to Korea saves money on staying in a hotel.

In general, Lee Sung-hyun's family conditions are relatively superior to many people. The apartment where Lee Sung-hyun lives is priced at hundreds of millions of won, and ordinary working families cannot afford it.

Back at the slightly empty and quiet home, he stood in front of the window and was stunned for a while, listening to the protest from his stomach. Lee Sung-hyun was also very skilled and began to go into the kitchen to cook lunch.

Every time he cooks, Li Shengxian can feel that these are obviously Chinese dishes. If he were in the United States before, he wouldn't have cooked them at all. Even though his mother was an authentic Chinese, the dishes she cooked were more inclined to Chinese.

Sometimes, Li Shengxian would feel that at this moment he is no longer the one in the United States. Instead, he has changed to another person. Some of these delicious Chinese dishes are not even his mother who can't cook them. Then how could he do it?

Perhaps because he couldn't find the answer too many times, Lee Sung-hyun no longer thought about these questions over time. At least he knew that the messy memories that came out of his mind allowed him to be completely accustomed to living alone in Seoul.
