"Ah? Was there someone next to you just now?"
Chi Jingyuan was stunned for a moment after hearing Ming Jingnan say this... He said that he felt that his girlfriend's reaction just now was a little dull.
According to his understanding of Mingjing Nan, a sentimental, introverted, emotionally rich, and romantic person, after he deliberately created an atmosphere of first depression and then praise, when she was extremely disappointed, she suddenly received the collaboration song "Fireworks", and learned that it was a gift for their 100th day anniversary. She should have been so happy that her heart was filled with joy and her lips were curled. She should have been softer during the phone call just now, and was so moved that she cried, which was in line with expectations.
This pulling technique has always worked for him...and it's not a bad thing. Most girls just like it and enjoy it.
Chi Jingyuan originally thought that he had not acted well before, and Ming Jingnan had seen through his flaws. He was a little disappointed that he did not live up to his expectations... After all this time, it turned out that there was someone next to him...
Now the tone and accent are right... I thought to myself, listening to the soft, sticky, and extremely soft baby voice with sobs in the nasal cavity on the phone.
"It's okay if there are people. Anyway, there's nothing to say. It doesn't matter..."
"Anyway, the matter of this song can't be kept secret."
Chi Jingyuan thought about the conversation just now. Maybe they showed their affection inadvertently, which might make some people jealous, but there is no need to care too much... As her girlfriend, it is normal to be envied and jealous.
"Um……"
Mingjing Nan was excited. He resisted the urge to cry, sniffed, and asked in a hoarse voice, seeming a little dissatisfied: "Why do you have to work overtime to finish this song? You have a cold and still... you are so tired and hard..."
"how do you know?"
Chi Jingyuan, who was drinking orange juice and happily feeling his girlfriend's attachment, was stunned.
How did Ming Jingnan know about this? He never said anything... Although he considered finding an opportunity to reveal it indirectly or inadvertently to make his girlfriend more moved.
But it hasn't been implemented yet...
"It's because... when Sana and the others were chatting before, Sehun oppa said... He said that you've been working overtime every day recently and have been busy with the collaboration song, and you also caught a cold, sniff..."
"He said that? Ah Xi, why does this guy have such a big mouth..."
After learning the reason, Chi Jingyuan blurted out a complaint... However, when he felt that Ming Jingnan on the other end of the phone was obviously more moved and attached, he couldn't bring himself to say the following words.
This hanged man seemed to have... helped him unintentionally?
Um... I'll treat him to a meal next time.
"…Because I had thought about this song before, and I wanted to give it to you as a gift today…but I was too busy recently, and there were a lot of things to do at school, so I didn't have much time to do it. Plus, writing lyrics in Japanese is a bit difficult for me…"
Without paying any attention to Wu Se-hun's big mouth, Chi Jingyuan casually explained: "Then it was too late, so of course I had to work overtime, otherwise I wouldn't be able to make it in time for today... Xiaonan, you don't really think I forgot that today is the 100-day anniversary?... I don't know why you Japanese girls care so much about this."
"That's right, I care! That's why you pretended not to know before! You just wanted to see me disappointed and cry!"
"This is also a little fun between lovers~" Chi Jingyuan laughed, and his tone was a little teasing: "Then... Did Xiaonan feel surprised?"
"Um……"
Mingjing Nan nodded vigorously. Today was truly the happiest day for her in recent times. Such a romantic surprise was simply irresistible to her. She surrendered in the first second.
The emotion she felt when she heard the song "Light up the Fireworks" in the music room at that time still surges through her body like an electric current, making her feel light as if in a dream, her heart burning as if she had been tickled by a cat, and her body became limp when she heard her boyfriend's voice.
She sniffed and was too lazy to pretend to be reserved. Although her voice was small, she was very persistent: "Wait a while, Yuan-chan should have time... I miss... I miss you."
Since Chi Jingyuan has always remembered today, his previous forgetfulness was intentional, so what he said before about not having time today must have been false.
She couldn't wait to see her boyfriend and spend some time alone together.
But Chi Jingyuan on the other end of the phone suddenly hesitated. After two seconds, he said, "That's not necessarily true..."
"Liar! It's not enough that you fooled me once, that's too much!" Unexpectedly, Ming Jingnan got a little agitated all of a sudden, and complained in a baby voice, even his voice was a little louder.
"Really? I just told you that I have a production meeting to attend later. I don't know when it will be over after the meeting. You don't have a day off tomorrow. If I waste more time on the way back and forth..."
"Then I'll take a taxi here myself!" The girlfriend seemed very stubborn and interrupted him and made a suggestion.
"Ah, what are you talking about?"
But when Chi Jingyuan heard her say this, he couldn't help but frowned, and his tone became a little heavier.
The words "take a taxi yourself" instantly reminded him of the story of Zico and Seolhyun that he had heard from the other members in casual conversation.
Because she was photographed many times taking a taxi to ZICO Apartment late at night, netizens and even many people in the circle including EXO members made mocking comments and rumors about Kim Seolhyun, saying that she was "a spendthrift" and "worthless".
Maybe he has some PTSD, but Chi Jingyuan actually really hates the term "paying for someone else". He also extremely dislikes the girls he is dating being commented on as "paying for someone else" and "not worthwhile" by other people after dinner... Although his relationship with Mingjing Nan has not been exposed to the public, such comments may only exist deep in the hearts of some teammates and insiders.
...But when he thought about it, the very idea of this happening made him feel disgusted.
Even though it might be an impressive thing for some people to talk about having a popular and beautiful idol pay for him... he doesn't need these things to show off.
He is Chi Jingyuan!
The sudden increase in the volume made Ming Jingnan stunned for a moment, but Chi Jingyuan paused, then immediately restrained his tone, thought about the time arrangement later, slowed down his tone, and gave instructions: "Well, I'll try to finish it quickly, and then I'll drive to pick you up after I'm done, whether it's the company or the dormitory, you just wait for me there... But I guess it's too late to eat, so you can eat first."
Although it was impossible to clearly know what Chi Jingyuan was thinking in these few seconds, Ming Jingnan seemed to have sensed something from his attitude. His voice suddenly became extremely soft, and he responded with a nasal tone:
"Well...I'll wait for you!"
…………
In Twice's practice room, the eight members were chatting excitedly.
After the impact of the 'anniversary collaboration song' "Fireworks", and after witnessing such an enviable experience and relationship of the first member of the group to fall in love, except for the short-faced youngest member who kept silently repeating "those who show off their affection will die quickly" in his heart, everyone else couldn't help but have some more thoughts.
It could be envy or jealousy of Ming Jingnan, it could be curiosity about Chi Jingyuan, or it could be dissatisfaction with the company's laissez-faire attitude.
At least...it gives these young girls some more subtle longings for love.
However, some members who were more confident and believed that they were as good as Ming Jingnan in all aspects or even better than him became more hesitant and cautious.
…Mingjing Nan was such a great example. Her love experience was so romantic and touching, with a fireworks festival, and a collaboration song anniversary surprise. If I were to fall in love, I couldn’t be much worse than her, right?
“Mina is really…”
Momo Hirai kept talking about the love story she had just heard... She was also one of the witnesses of the club incident, and she also knew that after that, Minami Nai had a long period of being a dream girl...
I was extremely surprised when I found out that she was dating Chi Jingyuan. Now that I know how their relationship went, I feel even more deeply that these two sisters are so happy that it makes me jealous.
Originally, she had always felt that Kim Heechul, who was caring, close to her and had an ambiguous relationship with her, was very good, took good care of her, and was very romantic. If they really dated, he would be considered a high-quality boyfriend even in the circle... But after making such a comparison, especially after hearing about "Fireworks", personal resources, fashion week introductions, and this and that, she suddenly felt something strange in her heart.
Especially as a Japanese girl, I have a natural special complex about summer and fireworks. The unique meaning and yearning for them are difficult for members of Peninsula to understand.
"…Tsk, tsk, the fireworks display is so romantic."
After thinking for a long time, he couldn't find the right words, so he could only click his lips and look at Minatozaki Sana next to him while speaking.
"..."
Minatozaki Sana nodded slightly, her smile a little faint, but she did not hesitate to directly confirm her statement.
...Need I tell you? I'm Japanese too. I'm a native of Osaka!
"Oh, right." Momo Hirai seemed to have suddenly remembered something. She turned her eyes and asked curiously, "By the way, what was Chi Jingyuan's ringtone on the phone just now? It seemed to be a Japanese song, and it sounded pretty nice..."
As she spoke, she hummed a few lines of a tuneless melody as she recalled the past.
Hearing her question, Minatozaki Sana's smile froze, and it seemed to become a little forced, and she answered with a squeezed mouth:
"It's...Unrequited Love."
"That's the name. I'll search it...but how did you know?"
"Because I knew it before."
"Wow, it's quite popular... the song title is good..."
After the members chatted for a while, Minami Naoi came back after finishing her phone call.
After a period of settling down, the atmosphere now is not as awkward and subtle as when I first learned about "Fireworks".
No matter what, it's her own ability that she can find such a good boyfriend... Mingjing Nan herself is excellent both in appearance and in character, and has a lovable personality. Members who have been together for a long time have also confirmed this.
Although I can't help but feel envious...but I'll just keep this somewhat timid emotion hidden in my heart. They are all proud of being able to debut as idols and being loved and pursued by so many people.
At least on the surface, this emotion cannot be expressed too obviously, and one must not fall into a disadvantage!
After Mingjing Nan came back, she was pulled by Hirai Momo to complain and question her. She was also very patient and talked to Hirai Momo with an apologetic look on her face. After chatting for a while, Yu Jeongyeon quietly came over and sat next to her. She hesitated for a second, and in Mingjing Nan's curious and concerned eyes, she whispered to Mingjing Nan, but also seriously:
"Mina, well, although Jingyuan Oppa is really a very good Oppa and treats you very well, and the company didn't say anything for some reason..."
"But I think... Mina, you should talk less about love in the group. Well, although it is really romantic and enviable, it is because of this... After all, we are still rookies. If we talk too much about this kind of thing, it will not have a good impact on the group and the members..."
Yu Jeongyeon spoke in a very low voice and paused while organizing her words. She seemed to be worried that her choice of words or tone would be inappropriate and would make Mingjingnan feel uncomfortable after hearing it.
"I know."
However, Ming Jingnan did not look angry at all. Instead, there was a gleam of guilt in his eyes. He nodded and spoke softly.
Although Yu Jeongyeon spoke intermittently, she immediately understood what the other party meant... As the first member to fall in love during the group's rapid development and rising period, more important things have not been dealt with by the company. If she often shows off her relationship, it will have a very bad influence on others and will be detrimental to the atmosphere and development within the team.
Mingjing Nan is so smart, of course she understood. She herself is a relatively low-key person. In fact, she felt guilty about affecting other people because of her love... If she hadn't been so moved and excited by the surprise today that she lost her composure for a moment, and if this collaboration song really couldn't be hidden from others, she would definitely not have said so much.
In fact, she already felt a little regretful when she said the latter part.
However, she will definitely be very low-key in the future, and will try her best to eliminate some bad influences, regardless of whether Yu Jeongyeon reminds her or not... However, she was quite touched by this sister's kind reminder.
After a pause, Ming Jingnan continued in a low voice but very seriously:
"I will definitely pay attention in the future, and I will definitely not affect the group's work. Um... I'm sorry, unnie."
Hearing Ming Jingnan's tone, Yu Jeongyeon seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and immediately laughed. In a voice that no one else could hear, she asked a few more private questions in a rather gossipy manner...
After Yu Jeongyeon left, Son Chaeyoung came over again, leaning against Ming Jingnan and asked in a sweet voice, "Ouni...will you come with us to get a manicure later?"
Mingjing Nan looked at the second youngest member who was grinning with her little tiger teeth, expecting to ask questions. She seemed to sense her emotions and suddenly smiled, tilting her head and looking at her sweetly:
"So you want me to go..."
…………
"..."
Chi Jingyuan packed up his things, closed the door, and walked out of the music room. After checking the time, he took the elevator and started going downstairs. His car was still in the dormitory complex, so he needed Cui Zhichang to drive the nanny car to take it back for him.
Although he has made great use of his time, it is after all related to his serious solo work. He certainly cannot deal with it perfunctorily. He can only try his best to be more efficient. Therefore, it is not early after the meeting.
Fortunately, the SM building is not far from JYP, and it won’t take long if the drive goes smoothly.
...After Chi Jingyuan walked out of the elevator, he quickly came to the coffee shop on the first floor again. While Cui Zhichang was driving to the parking lot, he prepared to buy two drinks and bring one for Ming Jingnan as well.
"One glass of orange juice, and another... Hmm, something with cola flavor, or something carbonated... Hmm, this is it, pack it up... Thank you."
After waiting for two minutes, Chi Jingyuan took the two packed drinks and turned around to leave.
He had only taken two steps when his fast pace suddenly slowed down and he soon stopped a little outside the cafe.
He looked at Pei Zhuxuan who was also looking at him in surprise a few meters in front of him, paused for a moment, and laughed:
"What a coincidence?"
