Chapter Eighty-Four: Quite Real
ooking at the boy standing before her, Li Xiuman nodded in approval. 。The boy before me was tall, about 182 centimeters I'd say. He was in great shape, clearly having gone through specialized training...They had eaten halfway through their meal and chatted quite a bit. Sun Seungwon and Ji Kyeong-won were also becoming more familiar with each other, no longer as hesitant to speak as they were at first.
Although she's not as playful and teasing with Ji Jingyuan as Jiang Seqi yet, she has become more lively and is starting to blossom into her true self.
After he got to know her, Chi Jingyuan discovered that Sun Shengwan was indeed quite lively and loved to laugh.
She sometimes liked to suddenly retort a few words to Jiang Sheqi, and Jiang Sheqi didn't mind, smiling and joking with her. It was clear that the two people's relationship was indeed quite good, they were very compatible.
What interests Ji Jingyuan the most is that Sun Shengwan likes to make expressions when speaking. He doesn't shy away from any strange, exaggerated, or even ugly expressions. His facial expressions are very rich and change with his tone of voice, which is quite interesting to watch.
She is a very real girl.
She's a little bit overweight.
Just now, two girls were joking around and having a laugh. Now they're chugging drinks to get hyped up. Ji-yeong was holding the tongs and arranging the meat on the grill. He glanced at the two of them and mentioned someone he saw earlier: "Se-ki, that Park Soo-ah you told me about last time, I saw her while waiting for you guys today."
"How do you like it Isn't it beautiful"
Ginger replied with her lips but kept her eyes on the grill.
"She's pretty, but she seems aloof and not someone who is easy to get close to."
Qǐ Jǐngyuán first clipped a piece of meat for her and then another piece for Sūn Shèngwán. The latter smiled and expressed his thanks.
"I'm not very close with Juhyeon Unnie, but we often practice together. She's probably an introverted personality, a little shy, but she's still quite kind to people she knows well."
Ginger Shih recalled and summarized her impression of Jennie.
"And I think she doesn't look well, she gives off a very gloomy vibe overall." Chi Jingyuan added.
"You sure notice a lot of things..."
Jiang Shibaqi glanced at Chi Jingyuan.
Chi Jingyuan shrugged. "My observation skills have always been pretty good. I not only noticed that her complexion wasn't good, but I also sensed that she might dislike me quite a bit."
"If your complexion is not looking good... perhaps it's because of the recent stress, or maybe you heard some gossip or nasty comments that made you feel down. It's possible."
Jiang Shiqi took a big bite of the wrapped grilled meat, her cheeks bulging. She chewed and thought for a moment before saying: "Although Joohyun unnie hasn't been a trainee for many years, she... when she joined the company, she was already older. Years have passed, and recently the company hasn't had any girl group projects. Her age has been increasing, and the pressure of waiting and waiting must be enormous."
And although her singing and dancing skills weren't the most outstanding among the trainees, she received a lot of attention from the company because...
"Because he's handsome." Chi Jingyuan added.
"He's really handsome, because Yan is very beautiful." Jiang Seqi nodded, and Sun Shengwan on the side also nodded in agreement, even though she was eating something.
"Being beautiful is a big advantage, but that advantage might be more popular with guys than girls... you should understand."
Ginger Siqi pursed her lips at Chi Jingyuan, without saying much.
Chi Jingyuan nodded to show he understood.
"As for why I dislike you…"
Jiang Shiqi's strange eyes looked over, "I don't know the specific reason, but I guess it's because of your 'airdrop', right"
“Being a rookie debut is really something to be jealous of, especially for trainees who have practiced for a long time or are older. And it's happening right around me... If I wasn't close to you, I definitely wouldn't like you, even if you were really handsome.”
Chi Jingyuan looked at her, with no particular expression.
Then I'm really grateful to you.
…………
After dinner, Chi Jingyuan and Sun Shengwan exchanged contact information. Their ** company 94Le has also gained another member.
Then the shop owner even ran over to ask Chi Jingyuan for an autograph, wanting to frame it and put it on the wall of the hotel as advertisement.
Ji Jingyuan didn't refuse, and instead smiled and said that he hoped his autograph could be placed next to Sunny's. The boss readily agreed, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
After that, everyone went back to their practice rooms. It's said that Lee Mi-ju later let loose on them, scolding several senior trainees who usually bullied others quite harshly. This really put some of the older trainees in their place and made many younger trainees feel much more comfortable.
It could be said that Chi Jingyuan did a good thing.
After participating in the K-Wave Music Festival, EXO-M spent about ten hours on a plane and returned to the peninsula on the morning of the 15th.
As M team's manager, Lin Xuanjun, was bringing them back to their dormitory, K team happened to be preparing to go to the company. The two groups came face-to-face.
At the dormitory door, Chi Jingyuan glanced over and found that the members of Team M really looked bad. They looked exhausted from their journey, as if they had been traveling for days. They weren't wearing makeup, and each person's dark circles were so prominent they looked like eye shadow. Their entire faces wore a look of exhaustion.
The skin also looks average. As the oldest member of EXO, Kim Kai is probably more sensitive, and his face has a lot of acne. At first glance, it looks quite uncomfortable. On stage, he would need to wear heavy makeup to cover some of it up.
Although others weren't as severely ill as Jin Geox, they didn't fare much better either.
Both sides greeted each other, Team K went to the company for practice, and Team M seemed to have already checked in before and is now returning to rest.
It can be seen that they are really tired and need a good rest.
The good news is that after this schedule is finished, M Team hasn't had many announcements recently, so they can get a pretty relaxed period to recuperate.
They are like their K team.
Over the next few days, they would run through their scheduled events. If they couldn't get a schedule, they would practice at the company.
One time, I also got a performance gig in Gangwon-do. They drove for a long way in a van to get to the venue.
As soon as they stepped out, it started raining. When they arrived at the performance venue, the rain had gotten heavier and heavier. The members rehearsed in their raincoats, and when it was time for the official performance, they changed into their stage outfits. As soon as they appeared, they were instantly drenched by the heavy rain. Afterwards, they performed two stages in the pouring rain, so much so that their eyes were struggling to stay open.
It was amazing that the performance went so smoothly with hardly any mistakes. On the way back in the van, the members weren't complaining at all. Instead, they looked at each other's messy appearances and laughed together, finding it quite amusing.
During those few days in late October, Chi Jingyuan took on the role of a human kite.
He flew to Japan on the 23rd with EXO members and seniors from his agency to participate in some activities there, and prepare for the ** Town concert that will be held in three days.
However, Ji Jingyuan flew back to Seoul in the early hours of the 25th and attended the Peninsula Fashion Idol Awards ceremony with Jung Eun-ji in the evening.
First published on the Chinese Novel Networkquite haggard, her eyes were slightly red, and there were two noticeable pimples on the side of her mouth and cheek.I think I might have a heatstroke.And the gaze between Ji Jingyuan and Bae Joo-hyun...
