Chapter 1413 Good Night
"Uh, I understand."
On a street in Gangnam District, Seoul, a black Mercedes was parked on the side of the road, and Ji Kyung-won was on the phone in the driver's seat.
On the other end of the phone was Park Jae-hyun, who was reporting to him on the follow-up handling of the incident.
First, regarding Hwang Ha-na, although Ji Kyung-won took Minatozaki Sana away, he certainly wouldn't just let her go after a couple of simple blows, and he also instructed Park Jae-hyun to handle the aftermath.
Park Jae-hyun, of course, knew a lot. A quick search revealed that this woman was a complete scoundrel. She had done almost everything that spoiled brats from the peninsula did: assault, bullying, causing serious injury and disability, drug use, and more.
There's no need to even fabricate a crime; just pick one and you're good to go... Park Jae-hyun plans to use a few pretexts, like drug use, to send her in jail, let her calm down for a while, and then ask Ji Kyung-won for advice.
Chi Jingyuan considered it briefly and then agreed. He didn't care much about the woman's affairs, although for this arrogant chaebol heiress, going to jail would be like killing her.
Just like Hwang Ha-na bullied Minatozaki Sana, Ji Kyung-won's punishment of her was the same... it was all just casual.
Although her family might pull some strings, we won't see her for at least a few years.
As for his lackeys, Chi Jingyuan didn't even bother to ask.
Then there's JYP. Of course, they found out about this big thing immediately after the lockdown was lifted. When they learned that it was Sana Minatozaki who was being harassed by Hwang Ha-na, they were immediately in a bit of a headache.
If it were anyone else, it wouldn't matter, but Twice is JYP's cash cow right now, and they absolutely can't afford to have any problems. However, after finding out that it was Hwang Hana, a rich girl, they suddenly felt a bit uneasy.
Based on their usual behavior, they're probably still planning to make Sana Minatozaki apologize.
However, shortly after, Park Jin-young received a call from Park Jae-hyun and learned that Ji Kyung-won had intervened and helped. After learning that Minatozaki Sana's phone was broken and she couldn't be contacted, and that Ji Kyung-won had taken her away, Park Jin-young's expression became quite interesting.
Although Park Jae-hyun didn't elaborate, Ji Kyung-won could roughly glean some information from his tone... From Park Jin-young's perspective, he certainly knew about Ji Kyung-won's relationship with Chou Tzu-yu, and also knew that he had dated Mina, but they had broken up.
Now suddenly there's another one, Minatozaki Sana... Park Jin-young doesn't know what to say. There are only four green cards in the group, and now three of them are involved with Ji Kyung-won.
Okay, if you say you're helping because you're a good friend, then I'll believe you.
Nothing more was said after that. JYP will definitely ask Sana Minatozaki after she returns. However, they also said that they plan to handle this matter discreetly and not tell the other members. As for today's original filming, it has been postponed.
Chi Jingyuan hung up the phone and looked at Minatozaki Sana next to him.
She seemed to really like the iPhone X that Ji Kyung-won gave her; she liked the model and the color. When Ji Kyung-won and Park Jae-hyun were talking on the phone about Hwang Ha-na, she didn't even look up or interrupt.
With her slender, pale fingers tapping rapidly on the screen, Minatozaki Sana was changing her SIM card... Just after returning to Seoul, Ji Kyung-won's assistant had already brought over the phone that Minatozaki Sana had broken, as well as her coat.
"Oppa, I've never seen this color of phone before!"
Sana Minatozaki was engrossed in playing with her phone, its blush-red metal casing standing out even in the train carriage: "Many people in the group, like Nayeon unnie and Jihyo, use iPhone X, but no one has ever bought this color."
"It wasn't bought here."
Chi Jingyuan didn't explain further, casually saying, "It's kind of custom-made... but I heard Apple might release this color next year."
"It was custom-made?" Sana Minatozaki blinked, looking down at her new phone with a sweet smile. "No wonder it looks so good! I like it even more now! Thank you, Oppa."
"Well……"
It's just a cell phone. Chi Jingyuan couldn't quite understand the obvious fondness that Minatozaki Sana showed for the phone. He had only thought that it would be inconvenient for an artist to be temporarily unable to use a phone after it was broken, so he gave her one to use temporarily. He figured she would probably buy a new one after a couple of days.
Chi Jingyuan didn't dwell on this, but instead told Minatozaki Sana, who was next to him, what JYP meant: "That's about it."
"Is that so? It's good that the other members don't know."
Sana Minatozaki kept her head down, fiddling with her phone, her rosy lips pursed in a habitual way: "Let's not let them worry."
As she spoke, she seemed to smell something strange, sniffed her clothes, and wrinkled her nose.
Although most cosmetics are quite fragrant, when so many things are mixed together, even the fragrance can become somewhat pungent.
"Is it convenient to go straight back to the dorm now?"
Chi Jingyuan noticed this and looked at the stains on Minatozaki Sana's body and head, casually saying, "Want to come to my place to wash up?"
He felt that if he went back to the dormitory like this, others would immediately recognize him.
"And then?" Upon hearing this, Minatozaki Sana put down her phone, slightly raised one eyebrow, and locked her gaze on him without surprise. Instead, her eyes seemed to be calmly waiting for the next page of his script.
"And then what?" Chi Jingyuan asked in confusion.
What happens after you take a shower?
After taking a shower?
Chi Jingyuan blinked and instantly realized what was going on.
"Oppa, you really have bad intentions. What are you planning to do?"
Sana Minatozaki drawled out her words, her voice sweet and soft yet alluring, her eyes slightly upturned, her gaze strange, revealing an undisguised disdain: "Oppa often invites girls to your house... to take a bath?"
Her words sounded like a reproach, but her eyes showed no rejection whatsoever. Instead, they were like hooks, bright and sparkling as she stared at Chi Jingyuan. Her pupils were moist and shimmering, and in the hazy light, the crystalline look seemed to be either expectation or indulgence.
The look on his face seemed to say, "If you invite me again, I'll go with you."
Sure enough, Chi Jingyuan was hooked, and his heart stirred slightly involuntarily.
Just as he was being stirred up and preparing to say something, Sana Minatozaki seemed to sense it as well.
But the next second, Minatozaki Sana closed her eyes, and the mesmerizing, intriguing glint of complex emotions in her eyes receded completely like the tide, neatly restoring her usual clear and bright appearance.
She glanced at Chi Jingyuan with a hint of arrogance, then looked away with a smug look in her eyes, as if to say, "I gave you a chance, but you didn't seize it."
"I'm not that kind of woman!" Minatozaki Sana smugly remarked.
Chi Jingyuan was momentarily speechless.
Although he hadn't initially thought that way and it was just a casual suggestion, Sana Minatozaki's gaze and expression just now really made him start to have some thoughts.
All the tempting entanglements and probing came to an abrupt end, leaving him with an involuntary sense of emptiness and regret.
What is Oppa thinking about?
Sana Minato looked over again, tilting her head to look Chi Jingyuan up and down, as if she had figured something out. Her curious eyes clearly held a sly smile.
She raised her chin, her tone slightly smug: "I'm not that kind of woman."
“I know, you’re Sana.” Chi Jingyuan couldn’t help but roll his eyes, feeling like he’d been tricked.
"It's good that Oppa knows~" the little fox smiled smugly.
"Then, shall I just take you back to your dorm?" Chi Jingyuan's lips twitched, and he stopped looking into Minatozaki Sana's eyes, looking straight ahead.
Despite being covered in dirt and looking disheveled, her eyes were so bright.
"Hmm, it's still early, the members' schedules should still be up, I'll just go back and take a shower... ee~ it really smells awful."
Minatozaki Sana nodded, then tugged at the corner of her clothes and sniffed it, fanning herself in disgust, and subtly shifted her little bottom a tiny bit away from Chi Jingyuan.
Seeing that Chi Jingyuan had already started the car, she changed the subject, also out of curiosity: "Oppa, where are you going later?"
"When I got back, Shirley asked me to go drinking with her that night."
Chi Jingyuan didn't hide anything, saying as he drove, "She's already gone. I'll go over after I drop you off at your dorm."
"Is that Sulli-senpai? I'm so envious of you guys being part of the 94 Line~" Upon hearing this, Minatozaki Sana pursed her lips. She was obviously familiar with Ji Jingyuan's circle of friends.
After a pause of one second, she asked curiously, "But what did you mean by 'Oppa'? I didn't see Oppa answer the phone."
"I noticed you seemed to be thinking about something just now, and I didn't want to disturb you, so I hung up the phone and sent you a text message instead."
"Does Oppa think I'll be moved?"
"Can you?"
"Hehe, guess what?"
The car drove smoothly for a while before finally stopping on a quiet side road near Twice's dorm... This is where Ji Kyung-won always parks when picking up Tzuyu... and Mina.
Sana Minato peeked out the window, a knowing glint in her eyes, then looked at Ji Jingyuan and said with a teasing tone, "Oppa, you really know our dorm area well. I didn't even know there was such a close yet secluded place here. You must have been here many times. You're such a good oppa."
This Osaka girl is really good at being sarcastic; even Ji Kyung-won didn't know how to respond.
Chi Jingyuan glanced at him sideways.
Forget it, seeing how unlucky she is today, and how pathetic she looks now, I won't hold it against her.
"Oppa, I'm going now. Drive carefully on your way back."
Sana Minatozaki unbuckled her seatbelt, grumbling as she pushed open the car door.
"Okay, I understand." Chi Jingyuan waved his hand.
Just when everyone thought that Sana Minatozaki would leave immediately, she didn't get out of the car right away. Instead, she stopped there and turned to look at Ji Jingyuan.
Their eyes met, and Chi Jingyuan's gaze met Minatozaki Sana's, as if he were drawn in.
Her beautiful eyes were like lake water bathed in moonlight, clear and gentle. The slight redness at the corners of her eyes still lingered, but it added a touch of soft warmth to her almond-shaped eyes.
Sana Minatozaki looked at her, her eyes slightly upturned, carrying a unique charm:
"Good night."
…………
Sana Minato ran towards her dormitory, her figure quickly disappearing into the night.
Back in the dorm, Sana Minato breathed a sigh of relief the moment she opened the door. The dorm was indeed empty; the other members must still be out on their schedules.
...Not only did the company not want to make this public, but Sana Minatozaki herself also didn't want the other Twice members to know.
Besides not wanting to become the center of attention because of this and to worry other friends.
She also has feelings and stories she wants to hide.
She carefully placed her new phone on the bedside table to charge it before quickly walking into the bathroom.
Turn on the shower, and warm water cascades down, enveloping your body with a comfortable temperature. Steam gradually rises, filling the entire bathroom and blurring the outline of the mirror.
Water streamed down her hair, across her cheeks, and over her shoulders, washing away sweat, dust, and residual makeup, bringing an indescribable feeling of refreshment.
Sana Minatozaki stood in front of the shower, closed her eyes, and let the water wash over her body. The stimulation of the hot water against her skin made her more energetic, and the scenes from today involuntarily floated into her mind.
In the end, it's only been a few hours since Hwang Ha-na broke into the beauty salon, but now it feels like a long story, with its beginnings, developments, twists and turns, the abyss of extreme repression, the redemption at the last minute, and the exhilarating comeback.
Fortunately, the story had a decent ending.
...Regarding this section...
I was really angry when I was bullied, insulted, slapped, and even forced to kneel down. It felt like my heart was being crushed, as if the whole world had fallen into darkness. Even when Chi Jingyuan appeared, it was still gloomy and dark.
But when the hot water was poured over him and his mind was clear, he thought about it again and found that he didn't seem to care as much or care as much anymore.
Even now, looking back, the first part of her memories of the beauty salon seems insignificant in this story. In comparison, what keeps replaying in her mind and causing emotional fluctuations is the latter part of the story.
Thinking of how Chi Jingyuan took her for a high-speed drive to help her release her emotions, Minatozaki Sana couldn't help but smile slightly, her eyes filled with laughter.
They even race cars! That's really wicked.
However, the feeling of speed and the thrill of leaving all her worries behind were truly captivating to her.
Of course, the most important thing is the person who is with her.
The warm water continued to wash over her, sliding down her jawline and gathering in the hollow of Minatozaki Sana's collarbone before meandering downwards through a steep valley.
At the same time, a sense of confusion arose in her heart.
What did it mean when she explained the kiss to Ji Kyung-won before, saying "it wasn't a thank you" but also "didn't say she liked me"?
Isn't it just a matter of being grateful and liking it at the same time?
She is very clear about her own thoughts and feelings. In fact, these feelings started a long time ago, and the source of the outburst should be the DMC incident in 16.
It's just that those things interrupted our contact and we lost touch... but it still stays in my heart.
Today, it seems that the severed threads have been restored, and the emotions that have been suppressed for a long time have erupted even more intensely and fiercely than before.
Even though nothing was said explicitly, it was clearly better than when there were no conflicts.
After all... she and Chi Jingyuan never used kisses to express gratitude before.
...And what 'ordinary friends' can express their feelings with kisses?
But in this way...
How should she face Chou Tzu-yu and Mina?
Thinking of the two people in her group, Sana Minatozaki wiped the water off her face, opened her eyes and looked at the mirror that was blurred by steam. She reached out and wiped it, revealing a clear mirror area.
In the mirror, her hair was wet and clung to her shoulders, water droplets dripping from the ends and leaving fine streaks on her fair skin.
The warm water brought a rosy glow to her face, like a ripe peach with a healthy sheen, making her skin appear even brighter and smoother. However, there was a handprint on her left cheek, not very clear, but still noticeable... She would have to be careful to cover it up later.
Further down, the water flowed down her slender shoulders, outlining her smooth shoulder line and slender waist. Her waist and abdomen were firm yet soft, while her front was undulating and perky.
She silently looked at herself in the mirror, letting the hot water pour down and wash over her, the steam enveloping her.
Just as the steam was about to envelop the mirror again and blur its surface, Sana Minatozaki in the mirror suddenly curled the corners of her mouth and raised the corners of her eyes, chuckling softly, as if her previous troubles and doubts had all vanished.
The now-blurred mirror reflected only a single, charming, and alluring smile.
I'm Sana!
