Chapter 977 You have to do it
"I want to fall in love, does anyone have any recommendations?"
Bae Joo-hyun looked at him with crooked eyes, straightforward but casual, but her smile made it seem as if she was just talking about something that had nothing to do with her.
But the gentle voice made Chi Jingyuan's pupils shrink and his heart tremble when he heard it. Looking at the smiling young lady in front of him, he felt a sense of surprise.
After the halftime MC hosting half an hour ago, Bae Joo-hyun was in a low state and suddenly got angry because of his casual words. Although Ji Jingyuan seemed helpless on the surface, he actually knew the reason why she was in a bad mood.
Nonsense, he wrote the lyrics of "Loved", how could he not know it?
I just received her text message about meeting her, and Chi Jingyuan originally thought that she was going to talk about the lyrics of that song.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened his mouth, Bae Joo-hyun suddenly attacked him with a straight ball.
Pei Zhuxuan's straightforwardness surprised him a little, and what she said...
She said she wanted to introduce a boyfriend, but how could he not understand what Bae Joo-hyun meant?
It’s called a recommendation, but the candidate couldn’t be anyone else except Chi Jingyuan.
It's obvious that they want to get back together.
This straight ball really caught him off guard, and for a moment he was hesitant and didn't know how to respond.
Because... he has a girlfriend now, and he is quite satisfied with Ming Jingnan and the current situation. Although he does have special feelings for Bae Joo-hyun, he has no intention of breaking up directly because of her.
Under normal circumstances, if his ex-girlfriend asked him this kind of question suggestively, he would just smile calmly and then reply, "What kind do you like? I'll introduce you to someone."
In his opinion, Bae Joo-hyun's hints and tests were still a little immature. If he said this, he would immediately take the initiative and block the other party's so-called tests, and immediately gain the upper hand.
But when the words came out of his mouth, Chi Jingyuan hesitated again.
Even if it was just a casual remark to regain the initiative, even though they had broken up for a long time, he still felt a little uncomfortable with the words "introducing a boyfriend to Bae Joo-hyun".
Moreover... with a young lady who I once dated, had a sweet time with, and was extremely familiar with, why should I fight for the upper hand and initiative in pushing and pulling...
He also felt that there was no need for this.
So suddenly, I was in a state of hesitation.
After she opened her mouth, Bae Joo-hyun seemed to be just looking at Ji Jingyuan with a smile, waiting for his answer, but in fact she was paying attention to his reaction. After noticing Ji Jingyuan's hesitation for a moment, Bae Joo-hyun's expression did not change, and she still had that beautiful smile on her face.
But I suddenly felt relieved and became excited.
Of course she knew that Chi Jingyuan had a girlfriend now, and she didn't expect that she could make him dump that junior just by asking casually.
She just wanted to express her attitude and test his thoughts and ideas.
...Now, the goal has been achieved.
Just when Chi Jingyuan was thinking about how to reply, Pei Zhuxuan did not let Chi Jingyuan think and hesitate for too long. After noticing the hesitation in Chi Jingyuan's heart, she immediately smiled again. Her face under the delicate makeup seemed to be brighter than before: "It doesn't matter if you don't have it now, don't worry, just remember it and help me keep an eye out."
She tilted her head and looked into Chi Jingyuan's eyes with clear eyes: "I'll ask again after a while."
Uh……
Chi Jingyuan, who was thinking about how to reply, heard her say that and saw the seriousness hidden in the smile in her eyes. His heart stagnated. Although the entanglement just now dissipated with her words, a feeling of helplessness and emotion brewed in his heart at the same time.
It was said to be a recommendation, but both Ji Jingyuan and Bae Joo-hyun knew the truth. How could Bae Joo-hyun really ask him to introduce a boyfriend?
After noticing that he was a little hesitant, she immediately gave him some leeway, saying, "Ask again later," which actually meant, "I can wait for you to break up."
It's said in a rather euphemistic way, but the meaning is quite straightforward.
However, this kind of straightforwardness was rarely seen in the Bae Joo-hyun who was a little shy and passive in his memory.
Therefore, Chi Jingyuan also felt a slight sense of strangeness... He always felt that the young lady who was once so familiar to him had become a little different now.
I used to call her "little sister" in my heart because Bae Joo-hyun has a gentle personality. Although according to the descriptions of Kang Seul-gi and Son Seung-wan, she is quite authoritative and has a bad temper in the team, but when she gets along with Ji Kyung-won, she is very obedient to him and never gets angry no matter what. Although he is three years older than her, it is actually Ji Kyung-won who takes the absolute initiative when they get along with each other.
But now, in the nearly half year of separation, no one knows what changes have taken place in her, or whether she has returned to her true nature and no longer deliberately suppresses her personality and attitude in front of Chi Jingyuan...
Today, Bae Joo-hyun seemed to have really become an older sister in front of her. She became proactive and straightforward. The older man's dominance was displayed very naturally under the premise of their extremely familiar special relationship, making people feel involved and suppressed, but not disgusted.
Although she took the initiative by hitting the straight ball, she did not act very aggressively. Seeing that Chi Jingyuan was in trouble, she immediately stopped while she was ahead. This combination of holding back and letting go actually made Chi Jingyuan feel as if he was being dragged and pushed by his emotions.
For a moment, Chi Jingyuan was a little tired of coping, but at the same time, he couldn't help but ignite a very strange interest and feeling.
"Why aren't you wearing earrings today?"
Just as Chi Jingyuan was thinking about Bae Zhuxuan's changes, the young lady looked at his ears again, staring at the empty earlobe at this time, and asked in a gentle voice.
"Ear studs?"
Chi Jingyuan touched the earlobe reflexively, and his hand paused slightly, as if he understood why Bae Joo-hyun suddenly changed her attitude.
"When I was putting on makeup before the pre-recording the day before yesterday, Sister Cody said that the trendy outfit would be best paired with earrings, which would make me look younger and more fashionable. It was my first solo performance, so I was nervous and wanted to make it perfect... So I found a more suitable one, and since I don't have pierced ears, I used ear clips... Did you see it?"
Chi Jingyuan's expression remained unchanged, and he returned to his original posture. He smiled and asked back, and then without waiting for Pei Zhuxuan to answer, he continued: "Today's style is another style. Cody said it doesn't matter whether I wear it or not, so..."
He shrugged his shoulders, his tone slightly casual, and the brief hesitation just now seemed to have long been blown away by the wind.
Chi Jingyuan gradually understood the transformation of Pei Zhuxuan... He couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, because this was the influence he caused himself.
Although it was Cody's request when she was putting on makeup the day before yesterday, he actually recommended another style of earrings. When he specifically chose the moon earrings given by Bae Joo-hyun, he actually had a subtle thought in mind.
If Bae Joo-hyun saw this, she would just flirt with him/her... Just like everyone who still has some special feelings for their ex after breaking up, wanting to know how much they mean to the other person at this moment.
Well, here comes the result of the test…the young lady caught him off guard.
"First time wearing earrings?"
Pei Zhuxuan blinked, and her eyes returned from her earlobe to his eyes. She curved her eyebrows and smiled at him pretentiously: "Wear it more often in the future, it's super handsome!"
She smiled beautifully, without any shyness or hesitation, as if she was not the one who had just proposed the idea of 'introducing a boyfriend'. She looked very smiling, but her aura was very different from before.
In the past, even when they were dating, she never made any requests to Chi Jingyuan. When she gave him earrings, when she heard Chi Jingyuan say that he never wore earrings, she just pursed her lips, a little disappointed and didn't mention it again.
But now, when the two of them had not shown any signs of getting back together, she very naturally and legitimately made a small suggestion.
When a person's mentality and ideas change, the pattern and attitude towards people will also change accordingly.
But Bae Joo-hyun became a little different.
Or maybe it could be said that the Bae Joo-hyun who never got angry in front of Ji Kyung-won before was just a little inferior and passive for various reasons, so she deliberately lowered her posture and suppressed her personality, trying to show her perfect side and created an incomplete image.
This is her original self, gentle yet strong, considerate and attentive, enthusiastic yet somewhat domineering. She is the captain who has Kang Seul-gi and Son Seung-wan completely under her control, making them both friendly and fearful of her.
"I'll wait a little longer to see how fans respond to today's first stage performance."
Chi Jingyuan looked at the young lady who seemed to be reacquainted with him, and did not refuse. He smiled and nodded: "If it's good, you can try it more."
"It must be good. I'll get the kids to give you some good reviews when I get back... Let's go back first."
Pei Zhu winked at Chi Jingyuan with a smile, patted his shoulder naturally, and led the way towards the security door.
After just two steps, she seemed to suddenly remember something, and looked at Chi Jingyuan and said, "By the way, do you remember the song you played for us in your music room before? The one without lyrics yet."
"song?"
She suddenly said this, and Chi Jingyuan was a little unresponsive. He looked puzzled, raised his eyes and tried to recall for a while. The memory from a long time ago finally came back to him, and he suddenly realized: "Oh, you are talking about that song..."
Last year, when the two were still dating, he once took Kim Taeyeon to the music room to listen to songs in his music library, and also called Bae Joo-hyun to listen with them.
At that time, there were several unfinished works, especially one song which only had the melody but no lyrics. Chi Jingyuan also casually mentioned that this song was a girl group song and he might try to submit it to Red Velvet in the future.
But that was a long time ago, and if Bae Joo-hyun hadn't told him, he would have really forgotten about it... Even if he thinks about it now, what he remembers most is not the song, but the memory of how he and the young lady showed their affection in front of their sister Kim Taeyeon.
It's rare that Pei Zhuxuan still remembers it...
"Have you written the lyrics?" asked Bae Joo-hyun.
"Not yet... I've been too busy lately and haven't had time to perfect it."
Chi Jingyuan didn't know why she brought this up, so he shook his head: "And I don't have any inspiration."
"That……"
Pei Zhuxuan seemed to have heard the answer she wanted to hear. She raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at Chi Jingyuan and directly explained her purpose: "Can I try... to write the lyrics for this song?"
"you?"
Chi Jingyuan thought he had heard it wrong and looked at Bae Joo-hyun in front of him with some disbelief.
She smiles sweetly, but her eyes are serious.
She is beautiful enough, but Chi Jingyuan finds it difficult to associate her with writing lyrics, and he can't help but have some divergent thoughts in his mind.
The young lady suddenly had this idea... Could it be that she saw that Kim Taeyeon's song "I" was written by her herself and it looked simple so she thought she could give it a try?
But did you know that half of the lyrics of Kim Taeyeon's song "I" were written by me? The original version of that song couldn't be released with those gibberish words, right?
"Why, do you doubt that I can write it?"
Facing Chi Jingyuan's slightly questioning gaze, Pei Zhuxuan did not seem angry. She just smiled but did not avoid his gaze.
"Uh... that's not the case."
Chi Jingyuan gave a fake laugh, although that was what he actually thought in his heart.
But after thinking about it for a while, he didn't refuse: "If you want to write it... then give it a try. I was going to submit this song to Red Velvet after it's finished. You're just the right person for me... It's just writing lyrics anyway. If it doesn't work, it doesn't matter."
"Then it's settled~"
As if she had anticipated Ji Jingyuan's attitude, Bae Joo-hyun was not surprised or delighted. She just smiled and made an OK gesture.
"Well, I'll send you the song when I get back...If you have any problems, call me."
"call~"
Bae Joo-hyun waved goodbye to Chi Jingyuan without any hesitation. Her eyes were bright and her smile was still there. She behaved very naturally.
But the moment she turned and left Chi Jingyuan's sight, after taking two steps, the smile on her face remained, and the corners of her mouth were curled up in a beautiful arc.
She first expressed her feelings and thoughts by "introducing my boyfriend" and at the same time tried to find out Chi Jingyuan's attitude.
After getting the answer you want, you should stop while you are ahead. You should not make the other party feel conflicted or pressured, but you can also show your persistence.
Later, an opportunity was found to connect the two people's work together, so that they could communicate with each other frequently and openly.
Relationships are most likely to heat up when working together... Bae Joo-hyun, who has worked with them before, knows the situation well.
Since she has decided to get back together, she will naturally try her best to find ways and fight for it, and at this time Chi Jingyuan's girlfriend Ming Jingnan naturally becomes the biggest opponent.
She didn't want to be like that bad woman Bae Suzy, who maintained an intimate relationship with Ji Jingyuan when he had a girlfriend.
But as long as they are not married, snatching men is a common thing on the peninsula. Even little girls in school don't have any psychological burden, and they can learn it without any teacher or experience.
Not to mention an idol like her who has only been in the industry for two or three years and has experienced a lot of things and ups and downs, and knows her own ups and downs.
Thinking back on the previous breakup now, apart from her hatred towards Bae Suzy, what she regretted most was that she had voluntarily withdrawn without any chance to fight for it.
After that, she experienced a period of depression and loss, the looks from people around her, her idol’s work, the members’ gossip, her bestie’s advice, and her own real experiences…
The most intuitive feeling she gets is that the things she likes are excellent things, and the people she likes are excellent people...
It's not given, but snatched.
If you don't fight for it, other women who know what's good will swarm in and push you out. Not only will they not thank you, they will also laugh at and spit on your weakness and naivety, and step on you.
She had suffered a loss once, and that painful lesson made her grow a lot, becoming mature, strong, calm, and even cruel.
and……
It was not a sudden idea for her to suddenly bring up the idea of writing lyrics for the song, but she had had a similar idea for a long time. In fact, when she heard the song at that time, she liked it very much and was deeply impressed. When she heard Chi Jingyuan say that he had not written the lyrics yet, she had already had the idea of giving it a try, and she had a vague outline of it.
After a series of emotional twists and turns and breakups, her thoughts became clearer and clearer. She had even thought of some of the content, especially the song title, beforehand.
It's just that because we have broken up and the most important man is no longer around, I didn't express my thoughts out loud and humiliate myself.
But now, since she had decided to snatch him back, she could say it out loud in her heart, and she could use the lyrics and the song title to launch another fierce attack on Chi Jingyuan:
'It's You'
