Chapter 1205 Just figure it out
"…Why are you so late? You're always this late. Kim Taeyeon is acting like a captain again, and has to be the last one to arrive?"
"Ah, when did I ever put on airs?"
"Yeah, it's impossible to move a short body."
"Ashi."
"Ouni, we just ran into Irene in the parking lot and talked for a while."
"Oh? Irene? What did you say?"
"They are going to shoot a magazine cover..."
Kwon Yuri, Choi Sooyoung and others who arrived in the hotel box first were originally teasing and bickering with Kim Taeyeon and Ji Kyung-won who were late. After hearing Seohyun's explanation, they paused for a moment, and Kwon Yuri and others secretly glanced at Ji Kyung-won.
Before, Ji Jingyuan and Bae Zhuxuan's relationship was not a secret within SM. Everyone in Girls' Generation knew about it and had witnessed it many times. Suddenly, Ji Jingyuan's ex-girlfriend, several sisters with good eyesight, immediately looked at Ji Jingyuan's expression.
Ji Jingyuan's expression didn't change much, but when they heard Xu Xian talking about Bae Zhuxuan's going to shoot a magazine cover, and her cooperation with GUCCI will be officially announced soon, and her fashion resources will soar, the expressions of Choi Sooyoung and others suddenly froze.
Of course they were aware of this matter. After all, when the news of cooperation with GUCCI was circulated within SM, they also competed for it...but they just couldn't snatch it away from Yoona.
As a result, Yoona Lim was not able to snatch the spotlight from Bae Joo-hyun...the younger female idol who they always thought had little presence.
...Although Yoona was the one who was defeated and embarrassed in front of everyone, Bae Joo-hyun actually stepped on their heads indirectly.
It's been so long now, and we're all adults now, so we won't dwell on this.
But at this moment, I suddenly heard that I had met Pei Zhu, and that their cooperation had already been finalized, and various bonuses had already poured in before it was officially announced.
To be honest, even Girls' Generation, which has experienced many ups and downs, feels a little jealous.
...This is a top luxury title, there are only a few of them in the entire peninsula, who wouldn’t want it?
Just look at Yoona’s expression and you’ll know…Huh, no reaction, just a plain smile?
It's a weird look!
Because of Bae Joo Hyun's sudden intrusion, this dinner started in a slightly weird atmosphere. After eating for a while, Huang Miying, who had been holding back for a long time, finally couldn't help it anymore. She looked at Chi Jingyuan and asked tentatively, "Jingyuan, did you help with Irene's GUCCI collaboration?"
As soon as this question came out, everyone around looked over...even Lin Yoona, who basically knew the inside story.
In fact, both they and the people inside SM knew very well that this matter must be the work of Ji Jingyuan. How could Bae Joo-hyun, a junior female idol with no background, be involved in such a thing?
Only Chi Jingyuan has enough power in the company and at GUCCI...it's just that Chi Jingyuan has been pretending not to admit it before, so it has always made people wonder.
But this time, it was the first time I asked him directly.
"Forehead……"
Being asked this question suddenly, feeling the gazes of a group of older female idols, Chi Jingyuan blinked, and did not say those perfunctory words before, but nodded lightly and responded casually: "Yeah, I guess so."
Although it was expected, the feeling it gave people was different when Chi Jingyuan actually said it in person.
…The sisters around me have been in the circle for more than ten years and have seen good and bad things, especially in terms of men and women. Most of the idol couples in the circle are attracted to each other's bodies and fall in love with each other. After a passionate relationship, they quickly return to calm. If they can conceal it and not cause trouble to each other, they are considered "good lovers", and there are even fewer who can provide some help in their careers.
When it came to Chi Jingyuan, he was given resources that made the assistants jealous, and she was even his ex-girlfriend...
When he admitted this, the surrounding area exploded instantly.
"Oh my god, this is too big a deal."
"I remember hearing from my agent that the company had already made the selection, so Jingyuan, did you directly change the company's decision and force Irene in?"
"Tsk tsk, I wonder who was pretending to have nothing to do with him before."
"..."
A group of older girls who were jealous of each other chattered and vented their jealousy. All kinds of teasing came at Chi Jingyuan, making him overwhelmed. After Cui Xiuying shouted a few words, she suddenly frowned and remembered something very important: "That's not right. Didn't you and Irene break up a long time ago?"
After this question, the others fell silent again.
"Yes."
Chi Jingyuan ate the food without raising his head. He just nodded gently and said as a matter of course: "Breaking up doesn't mean we have become enemies. Isn't it normal to take care of each other a little?"
This sentence seems to be more damaging than the previous admission.
"Ah, why can a man be so handsome? I'm moved~" Huang Miying covered her chest, swayed back and forth, and then hugged Kim Taeyeon and shook her, causing Captain Kim to push her away in disgust.
"Jingyuan, why don't you consider Noona~ Although Noona is not as good at pretending as Yoona, she is very caring."
"Is this even possible after breaking up?"
"Does Irene know about this herself? I just saw Jingyuan and you didn't seem to have much communication with her."
"Last time, didn't you say Jingyuan was dating Twice? And Irene here... oh~ Yoyo, Jingyuan is not behaving well~"
In addition to envy, jealousy and hatred, the members of Girls' Generation suddenly developed a strong interest in the relationship between Ji Kyung-won and Bae Joo-hyun.
They said they broke up, and they've been separated for such a long time, how could it still be like this?
"Hey, why do you care so much?"
Seeing a group of gossipers chattering around, Kim Taeyeon took the initiative to help Chi Jingyuan who didn't know how to explain.
She waved her fist confidently, "Isn't it normal to break up because of a little quarrel or conflict? You see, the two of them broke up, and Jingyuan won't talk about it... But Irene is so beautiful, and there are so many people chasing after her. After being apart for such a long time, have you heard any news about her being in a relationship? She doesn't even have an ambiguous partner, right?
As she spoke, Kim Taeyeon took a sip of wine and said with a bit of disdain on her face, "The things that young people like Jingyuan and Irene play with are outdated. If you can't understand them, don't ask them!"
"..."
Kim Taeyeon's words immediately made everyone around her fall into silence and contemplation, as if everyone was shocked by her words.
A few seconds later, Seohyun was the first to speak, nodding in approval and saying, "Irene is indeed very beautiful."
Irene unnie...
The corner of Chi Jingyuan's mouth twitched. He was inexplicably tickled by this address and Xu Xian's serious look.
But what you said is also true...If we don’t consider the seniority and juniority, Seohyun would really call Bae Joo-hyun "unnie".
"Kim Taeyeon, you shouldn't have forgotten that you are the oldest among us, right?"
Lee Sunkyu stared at Kim Taeyeon with dead eyes and reminded her rudely. The people around her echoed her, and she started to act like a spoiled child and kept saying "be quiet!"
However, since Kim Taeyeon said so, they all knew a little about the strange relationship between Ji Jingyuan and Bae Zhuxuan. They looked at each other with different expressions and had their own opinions.
What are the 'things that young people play with'? It's just that the men are scumbags and unfaithful, and the women like them too much and can't bear to let them go, so they can only stay close to each other and not too close, as if it's so fresh.
But this topic also made the atmosphere around them lively. People who could drink a lot toasted one after another, everyone's voices became louder, and some topics gradually began to drift more and more.
"Hey, hey, but..."
As she was talking, Choi Sooyoung, whose face was slightly red from drinking, suddenly looked at Chi Jingyuan and asked curiously, "Jingyuan, you and Irene broke up. Irene has been single for so long. How do you satisfy your physiological needs?"
After she finished speaking, she counted on her fingers: "I remember she was born in 91, so she is 26 this year. Tsk tsk, this age is the most powerful..."
"Forehead……"
Chi Jingyuan was instantly shocked by this extremely straightforward question. Looking at Cui Xiuying who looked serious and seemed to really care about this issue, he felt like thunder and lightning were roaring in his heart.
...I can only say that Choi Soo-young is worthy of being an adult idol who has been dating her boyfriend for eight years and has even lived with him for several years. When she gets excited, she has no reservations about talking about such somewhat dirty and private topics.
"Choi Soo-young is really going to die."
"Hey, you can ask that?"
"But it's true, what Xiuying said is right... This is very important for women."
"It's just a breakup, an emotional breakup, not a physical breakup, don't worry~"
"Hahahaha, you're so understanding."
The other Girls' Generation members were not much better, all of them looked indifferent. Even Yoona, who looked the most elegant, and Seohyun, who was the most intellectual, did not blush or feel shy at all when faced with this topic. Instead, their eyes were sparkling with curiosity and excitement, and the look and smile when they looked at Ji Jingyuan were a little strange.
If Girls' Generation's fans saw them like this, their filters would definitely be shattered.
"..."
When he met this group of young women approaching their thirties, Chi Jingyuan didn't know what to say for a moment.
It feels like no matter what you say, these adult idols will automatically imagine it as they wish.
When Choi Soo-young saw Chi Jingyuan's expression, she seemed to have understood something. She took the initiative to pick up the wine glass and clinked it with Chi Jingyuan. After drinking, she patted his shoulder and advised him earnestly: "Sometimes women have great needs in this regard. It is not enough to just give emotional value. Jingyuan, you have to remember to pull the string if you want to fly the kite...
"Even a cactus needs watering from time to time~"
…………
Under the madness of this group of lustful girls from Girls' Generation who exposed their true nature, Chi Jingyuan also drank a lot of alcohol and was not sent home by his assistant until very late.
He has already bought a plane ticket for tomorrow and will have to rush back to Neon Osaka early the next morning to start his activities.
However, just as he was lying on the bed, half asleep, the cell phone next to him suddenly rang. Picking it up, Chi Jingyuan's mouth curled up slightly.
It was Bae Joo-hyun who called.
Although we haven't been in touch for a while, it doesn't feel strange to receive a call suddenly.
And after the chance encounter today, he had a feeling that the young lady was going to contact him... Even if the other party didn't call, he was actually prepared to send her a text message.
"Are you asleep?"
As soon as the call was connected, Bae Joo-hyun's familiar voice came from the receiver. The volume was not loud, and there was a hint of restlessness in the background. It was obvious that she had not returned home yet.
"No, I just lay down." Chi Jingyuan yawned and replied lazily: "Are you still filming?"
"Well, we're going to have to change a lot of backgrounds and costumes this time, so we'll probably be shooting until one or two."
The young lady's voice sounded a little soft and a little tired: "I just ate something. Now it's time to rest. I ran out alone."
“How was the shoot?”
"It's definitely much better than the magazines I've shot before. The photographer, Cody, and the costumes are all more professional. Magazines like this wouldn't have asked me to do covers before... And the staff are all very easy to talk to. I felt that as soon as I arrived today..."
Bae Joo-hyun obviously had a lot to talk about. She talked about what happened today in a rather long-winded manner, with a little excitement in her tone. It was obvious that this kind of filming, which she had not been able to experience before, and the attitude of the staff made her feel very special.
While she was talking, Chi Jingyuan was listening carefully, interrupting from time to time to ask a few questions... Although they had been on the phone for quite some time, there was no sense of strangeness, and the tones of both of them were very natural.
There is no intimacy like when we were dating, but it feels like we have returned to the time before we started dating.
"When did you come back this time? Didn't XO go to Neon?"
After talking about her own affairs, Bae Joo-hyun took the initiative to ask about Chi Jingyuan.
"I have work here. Didn't you see that Girls' Generation is all here? I'm working as a producer for them... I arrived yesterday morning and I'm leaving this morning."
"Are you in such a hurry? ...After we met, did you go out to eat with Taeyeon and the others?"
"yes……"
Chi Jingyuan briefly talked about his dinner with Girls' Generation, and then he mentioned some private things that happened to those girls after they drank too much.
"Oh, the group of people at the back were all drunk, and they were able to dig up things from a few years ago... Oh, and they even talked about you."
"Discuss me? Discuss what about me?"
"Forehead……"
After sending that sentence, Chi Jingyuan felt that he seemed a little reckless.
How could she say such things? It would make Bae Joo-hyun feel like someone was talking about her private affairs behind her back.
But after hesitating for a while, Chi Jingyuan still said it out loud, and simply said what he said at that time: "They...they are discussing how you can solve your physiological needs."
Because after thinking about it, he firstly didn't want to lie to her, and secondly, he had some subtle thoughts in his mind.
"Ah! How did we start discussing this?"
Pei Zhuxuan, who was originally a little curious, immediately became quick and high-pitched when she heard it. Chi Jingyuan could feel her surprise, anger, and obvious embarrassment through the receiver.
If she was discussing this topic with Ji Jingyuan alone, Bae Joo-hyun wouldn't really care. After all, they have been together for so long, and they are considered an old married couple and know each other too well.
But it was different when being discussed by the Girls' Generation group. It felt like my privacy was being brought out and being stared at.
She paused and asked doubtfully, "Did you say something?"
Why are they suddenly discussing her? Or are they suddenly discussing her privacy?
"How is that possible? I'm just sitting here with nothing to do and suddenly I'm talking about this?"
Chi Jingyuan's voice was full of innocence, and he explained helplessly: "Because I met you in the parking lot before, and then your agent told me about GUCCI, and they were talking about you while we were having dinner... I guess they were envious."
"It was normal at first, but then they probably got drunk... and they knew that you and I had broken up... and they ended up talking about this."
As he spoke, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but complained speechlessly: "These women who are almost thirty years old really start to eat whatever they want after drinking a little bit of wine. They dare to say anything. It's really a burden..."
However, Chi Jingyuan's complaints seemed to have hit Pei Zhuxuan's sore spot. She was a little annoyed because of being discussed just now, but her tone suddenly became cold, and her voice without emotion came out word by word:
"I am also a woman who is almost thirty."
Hearing her words and the change in tone, Ji Jingyuan instantly recalled Xu Xian's words "Irene unni". The corners of his mouth twitched, showing that her expression was extremely wonderful. He wanted to laugh, but was afraid of angering the little sister.
"..."
One of them was upset and the other was reluctant to speak, so the originally harmonious and relaxed atmosphere on the phone suddenly took a turn for the worse and became silent in an instant.
Chi Jingyuan could only hear Bae Zhuxuan's slightly rapid breathing through the receiver.
Only ten seconds passed, but the breathing sound gradually became lighter until it was barely audible. After two seconds of silence, Pei Zhuxuan's voice suddenly came from the other end of the phone:
“…Heh, forget it. It’s normal for Girls’ Generation’s unnies to be curious. So…are you curious?”
At this moment, Bae Joo-hyun's voice was no longer as hasty and angry as before. Instead, it became very calm, and there seemed to be a hint of teasing in her tone.
"Forehead……"
Chi Jingyuan was a little speechless.
"Just do it yourself, okay?"
Pei Zhuxuan's voice was agitated, and her speech speed suddenly accelerated, with obvious anger, as if she had thrown in the towel: "My boyfriend was stolen by someone, and I don't want to date other people... This is the only way, what else can I do?"
"Chi Jingyuan~"
As she spoke, the young lady suddenly called out Chi Jingyuan's name: "Are you very proud to hear me say this?"
"..."
Chi Jingyuan, who was lying on the bed, blinked.
Well, hearing Bae Joo-hyun say that, it is true a little bit.
Although he and Bae Joo-hyun have a tacit understanding, it is another matter to say it out loud. Anyone would feel proud to know that his ex-girlfriend is still thinking about him.
...but how can I say it?
Just when Chi Jingyuan wanted to say something to ease the atmosphere, the young lady's voice came to his ears again.
"Watering... Hehe, Sooyoung really understands. This metaphor is really vivid. Why doesn't she share her experience of living together with you and come up with another good metaphor at the same time~"
After retorting to Choi Sooyoung who was discussing her private affairs, Bae Joo-hyun paused for a moment, sneered, and said lightly: "But... what she said is really right."
"Chi Jingyuan...you can do whatever you want."
