Chapter 140: Chapter 140: The Mighty Power of the Hammer (Part 1)
The director came not long after. Now, there were four.
“Excuse me,” I said. Everyone stared at me.
“We only ordered four servings.”
Jong-chun nodded, his face clearly confused. Four servings for four people, right? Jinwoo, on the other hand, began to understand. Heejin also stared at the pot, clearly worrying about whether it will be enough.
Finally, Jinwoo raised his hand.
“Excuse me!” he called out to the server. “Can we have 10 servings, please?”
“Ten?” the server asked. “That might be a lot…”
Look at her. Worrying for nothing.
“It’s okay. Ten, please.”
“Oh…okay.”
The employee walked away, looking a bit uncertain. Jinwoo looked at me as I gave him a pleased smile. Joong-chun still remained oblivious. This guy can be really dense at times.
“Mr. Park, won’t 10 be too much?”
“Hahaha.”
Jinwoo started to laugh before he spoke.
“Mr. Cho. If you want to work with Sian, you should at least get to know her first.”
With a shake of his head, Jinwoo clicked his tongue at the director who continued to look confused. So, Jinwoo spoke up again.
“Sian will eat it all up.”
“What?!” Mr. Cho exclaimed.
Just wait until I actually eat all ten. That will definitely shock him for sure. Actually, I don’t think ten will be enough. Anyways, the ten servings came out, separated into three separate pots as we began to eat.
Soon, we were talking. Well, Mr. Cho was.
“I would really like add Sian more into the drama. Her action scene was amazing. She’s famous, as well as beautiful to boot. She suits the role oh so well.”
“Yes, that’s true,” Jinwoo said, looking mighty pleased. He was looking at me with a look of pride.
“That’s why I called you here, Mr. Park. I wanted to hear your opinion,” Joong-chun said.
“I’m okay with it,” Jinwoo answered. I stared at the both of them. Jinwoo then turned to me.
“What about you, Sian?”
“Do you want me to do it?” I asked. If Jinwoo tells me to do it, I’ll do it. Considering the things that I’ve put him through. Also, Heejin wants me to do it as well.
“Of course.”
“Let’s do it, Sian.”
“Come on, Sian~ Pleeaaaase?”
“Ugh.”
There’s no way I can resist Heejin’s cutesy whining.
“In that case,” I began. Everyone immediately straightened up, especially Joong-chun when I turned to look at him.
“Quit yelling at the rookie actresses.”
“Ah, of course! I was only doing it to try to help them improve, but…it’s not like I have to! Yes! I promise!”
“….”
This is why popularity is important. You get things done. Anyways, once I got his promise, I agreed to keep filming for ‘You From a Star’ as the bodyguard. But at that point, I had no idea just what I put myself into.

At the dorms.
We were all currently in the living room. Everyone was just doing their own thing. Tomorrow was the day we were going to be on ‘Do You Know the Brothers?”
“Hmm…my special talent…what should I do?” Jia muttered worriedly.
“Can I do something with my boobs?”
That was Yoo-jin.
“I don’t have a special talent either.”
That was Hainan.
“Just do whatever you want.”
That was me. Right now, I was cleaning. These girls are such slobs sometimes.
“Ew! Ji-hyun! What did I say about leaving your underwear around!”
“Oh! Sorry, Sian!”
“Ugh.”
I gingerly picked up Ji-hyun’s pink panties with the very tips of my fingers and tossed it into the laundry basket. And that’s when my eyes fell on a purple bra.
“Whose is this? It looks like Yoo-jin’s.”
Looking at the size, it had to be Yoo-jin’s. No one else would be able to fill this cup size.
“Sian. You can clean later. Sit down. We have to figure this out,” Yoo-young said.
“Okay.”
I immediately put down the laundry basket and joined in on the conversation.
“Should we make up a talent then?” Ji-hyun asked. We all went into deep thought, except my thoughts went off in a completely different direction.
“I should practice with the hammer.”
I picked up the plastic hammer in the middle of the living room, and brought it down on the floor.
Thwack!
The house began to shake, with the window breaking not long after.
Crinkle! Crash!
“….”
“Was I too hard?”
I looked at the hammer, which had broken upon impact. Everyone else shook their heads. No one was surprised anymore.
“Sian, you’re not actually trying to kill someone, are you?” Jia asked with an amused smile.
I gave her a shrug. Hey. You never really know.
“I can bark like a dog,” Yoo-jin suddenly said.
“Yeah, you’re a real bitch sometimes,” I said.
Yoo-jin pouted. Hmm, was I too harsh…?
“Hey, Si-dong Kang is hosting the show, right? I hear that he’s really strong,” Jia said.
“I’ll go against him,” I volunteered. Everyone readily nodded in agreement.
“But isn’t Jong-hyun so handsome?” Jia asked all of a sudden. She popped up a photo of Jong-hyun on her phone screen and everyone gathered around to be in awe over his photo. Jong-hyun Kim, the most popular male idol around thanks to his tall height and pretty face. He looked like a brat to me, but he was in his mid-30s, which made him practically an old man.
“I hope I’m paired with him,” Jia said.
“No,” I said.
“Hmph. You just want him for yourself.”
“Yeah, right. He’s not my type,” I said. Not like any men are my type. Especially those that try anything with my girls. I can’t forgive that. If anyone tried anything with my members, I’d chase them to the ends of the Earth.
“Then, me!” Yoo-jin shouted.
“No,” I said. Yoo-jin especially needed to find a good guy. Because of her figure, she got all sorts of creeps hanging around her all the time.
“Hmph. Then who do you think should be paired with Jong-hyun?” Yoo-jin asked.
“He should just be by himself.”
“Pfft.”
Everyone laughed at my answer.
We continued to chat through the night and in the end, we couldn’t come up with a single talent.
***
The next morning.
It was chaos.
“Hey, guys! Hurry up! Come on! Hurry!” Hak-gyu shouted at our door. We all hurried out.
“Come on, guys. Hurry.”
I did a quick check to make sure we didn’t forget anything or anyone. There was a phone on the couch. A phone on the table. A phone in the bathroom trash can. Wait. What’s a phone doing in there? Ugh. Gross. I wanted to just leave it there, but I gingerly picked it up. With the three phones, I ran out and joined the other members into the van.
“Who left their phones?”
At my question, everyone began to check their pockets. Jumi, Rhinzi, and Jia immediately raised their hands.
“Here you go,” I said, holding out the phones. The one in the trash can was Jia’s.
“Hey Jia, your phone was in the bathroom trash can.”
“Really? Why?”
“How should I know?”
After all, it’s not my phone.
“Oh, I guess I accidentally threw it away when I was going number two earlier.”
“Right.”
Sheesh, she needs to be more careful. Then again, she was so cute that I couldn’t be that mad at her.
Soon enough, we were off. And on our way, we began to think of our talent again. Then again, t’s not like we haven’t been talking about the same thing over the past few days. Don’t they get tired of it?
Just then, my phone rang.
“Huh?”
It was Si-dong. Oh yeah, we had exchanged numbers after Idol Dream Team. I then answered.
“Yes?”
– Sian!
Wow, he was loud. If Si-dong volunteered to roar like a lion, people wouldn’t know the difference.
“Hi, Si-dong. How are you?”
– I’m good! Where are you guys?
He was so loud, the other members had no trouble what he was hearing.
“We’re on our way.”
– Yeah?! Did you guys eat?”
“Yes, we did.”
– Oh, good! But what did you eat?!
“Uh…rice.”
– Rice?! That’s it?! Is that enough?!
“Jesus, you’re loud.”
Unfortunately, I had said that last part out loud.
– What? What did you say?
“I was talking to myself.”
– Wait, what? Aw, never mind. So where are you guys?
“Um, we should be there in about 20 minutes.”
– Okay, good! Let’s get a meal together before we film! My treat!
“Okay!”
That wasn’t me. That was the other girls. Si-dong really liked it.
– What’s this? Was everyone listening?
Even if they hadn’t wanted to listen, there was no way they would’ve been unable to. His voice was loud and clear throughout the whole van.
“Yes, everyone can hear.”
– Okay! Hurry, okay? I’m on my way to get pork belly right now!
“We’ll be there very soon.”
– Okay! Oh, and Sian?
“Yes?”
What now?
– What pork cuts do you like?
“I like all of them.”
Jesus, he asks too many questions. Of course I like everything. Isn’t that obvious?
– I thought so! I’ll buy a lot of everything, so hurry, okay?
“Okay~”
And that ended my call with Si-dong. My eardrums were ringing by the end of it.
Then, all of a sudden, Hak-gyu suddenly snorted from the front seat.
“What is it?” I asked.
“Oh, it’s just that Mr. Kang is really brave, don’t you think? He knows how much you eat, and yet he’s still treating you to lunch?”
“That is weird.”
Everyone nodded, realizing Hak-gyu had a point. I was curious as well. And it wasn’t like it was just for me, either. He’s buying meat for all of us. Maybe he’s just that rich. That makes sense. Like, loaded. I hear he owns a building in both Gangnam and Bun-dang. Oh, and a couple more in Myeongdong.
“Well anyway, he’s buying, so let’s get stuffed!” I said.
“Okay!” everyone shouted. It was so loud that I swear the windows were about to break.
Soon, we arrived at the station. Si-dong was waiting for us out front along with the rest of the cast and crew.
“Sian!” Si-dong shouted. I greeted him back just as happily. Hey, he’s buying me meat. Of course, I’m happy to see him.
“Hello!” all the members exclaimed in unison. All the staff members cheered, Si-dong being the loudest of them all.
“It’s so nice to meet everyone!” he shouted.
“Hey, Si-dong,” I said, leaning in.
“Yes?”
‘Can you shut up?’ was what I wanted to say but I suppressed that thought.
“Don’t we need to start shooting right away?”
“Nope. We still have an hour. That’s plenty of time for you guys to eat, right?” Si-dong said.
“Yes!” everyone answered.
“But aren’t we having a team dinner tonight?” I asked.
“Of course! We can eat now and later! We’ll just keep eating!”
“Nice.”
You know, Si-dong really is a great guy.
