The presidential election in South Korea, held every five years, is approaching its final voting day. Everyone is concerned about who will be the next satisfactory leader while working hard to quickly welcome the long-awaited holiday.
"Are you asleep?" Park Soo Eun tapped Anna on the shoulder.
Anna was propping herself up with one hand on the table. Although her eyes were filled with moving videos, she was so exhausted that she had to zone out.
Park Soo Eun placed a coffee in front of Anna, who rubbed her bloodshot eyes and took a sip.
"Ah... this is killing me," Anna sighed. "I feel like my soul is about to leave my body."
"How much work do you have left?" Park Soo Eun asked.
"Well... even if I work at full capacity, it will take about two more days, and that's just for editing. Subtitles, special effects, background music—there's still a long way to go..." Anna felt a sense of despair just thinking about it.
Looking over at Dong Wan, who said he was just resting his head on the table but had already fallen asleep and was even snoring a bit, Anna couldn't bring herself to wake him.
Park Soo Eun glanced at the progress and saw there were still over fifty hours of video that hadn't been roughly edited yet. She looked at Anna with sympathy but encouraged her with a smile, saying, "Anna, you're already doing much better now; you're much faster than I expected."
"Thank you, Park Soo Eun," Anna replied with a grateful smile, though her dark circles under her eyes were getting deeper.
Zhao PD checked the time; it was already past ten in the evening. It seemed that even the air in the studio was filled with an atmosphere of exhaustion, and everyone looked too tired to show any expression. Zhao PD clapped his hands, and everyone turned to look at him upon hearing the sound.
Zhao PD said, "Let's call it a day."
Upon hearing this, everyone collectively sighed in relief as if they had received good news.
"And," Zhao PD continued with a smile, "let's go have barbecue later; Miao PD and I will treat."
As soon as they heard "barbecue," everyone's previously drowsy eyes lit up instantly. Li Xiuyu asked, "Barbecue? Really?"
"Of course it's true. Hurry up and get ready, we'll meet at Samsun BBQ Restaurant soon," Zhao PD said as he turned and walked out.
Nothing seems more real or uplifting than a barbecue meal. Everyone, despite having dark circles under their eyes, suddenly felt excited, and their pace in packing up quickened significantly.
At this time, there were no customers at Samsun BBQ Restaurant. It seemed that Zhao PD and Miao PD had made a special reservation. A large group of people walked in, and without further ado, the auntie brought out enticing snowflake beef, placing slices on the grill. Before long, it began to sizzle and smoke, filling the entire Barbecue Restaurant with a delicious aroma. Hungry Anna felt her mouth watering.
"Come on, everyone, cheers!" Miao PD raised his glass and downed his Soju in one go, shaking off the fatigue of the day.
"Cheers!" everyone followed suit.
After a few rounds of drinks, everyone's faces were slightly flushed. Not thinking about how much work awaited them tomorrow, at this moment, eating barbecue and drinking Soju felt incredibly blissful.
With no more work to do, the auntie at the Barbecue Restaurant squeezed in front of a small television to watch news about presidential candidates, continuously discussing which one was better.
The most ordinary people live the most ordinary lives.
As the gathering ended, it was nearly one in the morning. Everyone began to disperse when Andy's call happened to come through.
"Are you done yet?" Andy asked.
"Just finished," Anna replied.
"How are you getting home?"
Anna glanced at the subway station nearby and continued walking as she said, "I'm taking the subway; I'm already waiting."
"Okay. I won't be able to go home today or tomorrow; just take care of yourself," Andy said.
"What happened?" Anna asked.
"Company matters need urgent attention, so I’ll probably be working overtime for the next couple of days."
"Alright, then call me if you need anything," Anna said.
Andy smiled and replied, "Dear Miss Anna, just take care of yourself and don't make me worry."
"I know."
After hanging up, the train arrived at the station. The carriage was quite empty, with only a few people scattered around. Since it was late at night, some were engrossed in their phones while others slept heavily against the windows.
Anna tried to take her phone out of her bag but accidentally pulled out her wallet as well, which fell to the ground. As she bent down to pick it up, a sharp pain shot through her neck. Instinctively, she touched it but felt nothing unusual.
Once seated again, she wanted to play with her phone for a while, but fatigue washed over her like a tidal wave. Rubbing her eyes, it became increasingly difficult to stay awake. Leaning her head against the glass window, she began to doze off. Just before her heavy eyelids closed completely, she saw a small, thin figure wearing a mask and a baseball cap walking toward her...
With a thud, her phone fell from her hand to the floor, and then everything in front of Anna faded into endless darkness...
Dear readers, with your enthusiastic support, my novel is officially launched! Thank you for your love and recognition; I hope you will continue to support and accompany me. I will work hard to update and write even more exciting stories for you!
Launching means there will be fees involved, and I understand that your money is hard-earned. Therefore, based on past recharge experiences, I would like to recommend a few cost-effective mobile recharge methods so that every penny you spend is worthwhile!
First, I recommend "Alipay," which allows you to exchange 1 yuan for 100 Lemon Coins. You can pay directly using online banking or Alipay balance. If you don't have online banking, you can also use quick payment methods! It truly works with all major banks, suitable for everyone regardless of online banking availability. Next is "Mobile UnionPay Quick Recharge," which has an exchange rate of 1 yuan for 80 Lemon Coins and allows direct recharges without needing a card. If both of these seem cumbersome, I also recommend the easiest recharge method: "Bind Mobile for Automatic Recharge." By simply binding your phone number, it will automatically recharge 700 Lemon Coins for you every month for just 15 yuan, and unsubscribing is very convenient. If mobile recharging gives you headaches, then feel free to return to webpage recharging; here’s the link:
That's all I have to say! Lastly, thank you for your collections, flowers, and monthly votes! Thank you for your support! I'm off to write now~~~ BYE~~~~
