Kim Taeyeon and Kim Hyoyeon showed gossipy smiles after entering the door.
Pei Zhuhyun pursed her lips in frustration, but in the end she had no choice but to laugh along with her.
In redvelvet, she is the eldest sister who has a very high status in the team.
Even though there are times when Jin Yelin takes advantage of her popularity and always does some outrageous things, but when it comes to the real say in the team, it depends on her as the eldest sister of the group.
Born in 1991, she is three years older than Seulgi and Seungwan, five years older than Park Sooyoung, and eight years older than Kim Yerin.
But in front of Kim Taeyeon and Kim Hyoyeon...
These two were born in 1989, so they are two years older than her.
In this country where the upbringing is morbidly orderly, being two years older is already a big gap, not to mention that in addition to being two years older, these two are seniors who debuted a full 7 years before her.
"Sister Taeyeon, sister Hyoyeon, why are you here?"
"Hehehe, I heard that you invited Liu Xin'an to this year-end stage?"
As someone who has had contact with Liu Xin'an, Kim Taeyeon smiled like a strange uncle and asked aloud.
Well, it was these gossips that made these two busy seniors come to their practice room.
She invited Liu Xin'an and it was not something that needed to be concealed. Moreover, Liu Xin'an would definitely come backstage when the time came, so it was only natural that Kim Taeyeon and Kim Hyo-yeon knew about it.
And no need to ask, Son Seungwan must have told Kang Seulgi.
"Well, are the sisters also going to participate at the end of the year this time?"
"The two of us? We're not going."
In fact, Kim Taeyeon has made a comeback this year, but because they will come back with a new project on January 1 next year, which is New Year's Day, they did not participate in the year-end Music Awards this time.
But Son Seungwan and Kang Seulgi have the chance to win. It's different. They have to take care of both sides, so it's very hard.
"Not to mention that, I watched your show. Is what you said true?"
Kim Hyo-yeon started gossiping excitedly, but before Bae Joo-hyun could answer, Kim Taeyeon rolled her eyes.
"Didn't I tell you it was true? Why don't you believe me?"
"You have too many dark histories of lying. I'd better listen to Irene herself."
"What? I met Liu Xin'an before they made it public."
"Oh, so."
"Haah..." Kim Taeyeon made a ridiculous sound, not bothering to prove anything.
Bae Zhuhyun smiled as she watched the two seniors bickering, and then responded to Kim Hyoyeon's gossip in a cooperative manner.
"Sister Hyoyeon, what do you want to ask about?"
"He really didn't know your identity, and then he stayed with you?"
"Well, I spent a lot of effort at that time to hide my identity."
"Oh, it's true. Such a romantic thing actually happened in reality. It's incredible."
...
The two sisters gossiped for a while and then stopped gossiping about Liu Xinan. They are both artists who have been debuting for so many years. Even Kim Hyoyeon, who was criticized for his outspokenness in the early days of his debut, has now developed his emotional intelligence.
.
After all, love is a relatively private topic. If we talk about it honestly, no one will be happy if we talk about it honestly, so the topic seamlessly switched to their new project comeback.
What makes them most dissatisfied is the lyrics of this song.
Obviously this project includes very capable girl group members, as well as super powerful seniors like boa, but the lyrics of this song are so... demeaning.
But there is no way, they are artists, they have to sing whatever songs the company gives them.
This is also the most helpless place as an artist.
Pei Zhuxuan sat aside, not interrupting but patiently listening to the complaints of the two older sisters and her younger sisters. When it was almost time to rest, she continued to pull her younger sisters to get up and prepare for practice.
What they have to deal with this time is the year-end awards of the three major channels, so they also have to prepare a few more songs for the stage.
Of course "queendom" cannot be left out, after all, they made their comeback this year with this song.
In addition to this song, they also prepared "psycho", their famous song.
Of course, apart from being a famous song, Bae Joo Hyun still had some selfish motives when choosing "psycho".
After all, her boyfriend also likes this song very much. If possible, she would of course want to perform it on stage for Liu Xin'an.
While he was sweating, the door of the always quiet practice room was suddenly pushed open, and Cheng Taiqian appeared at the door.
The first person who noticed Sung Tae-cheon was Kim Tae-yeon who came over to play. She smiled and waved to Sung Tae-cheon. They were both from the same company. Although Sung Tae-cheon had never taken them through Girls' Generation from beginning to end, her relationship with Redvelvet
Very good, you can be considered very familiar with Cheng Taiqian.
Sung Tae sneaked up to Kim Taeyeon and Kim Hyoyeon who were dancing with him and lowered his voice.
"come and play?"
"Well, what's the situation, Brother Taiqian, they are so busy, why do you still arrange work for them?"
"I have no idea about the above task, but they should like this job quite a lot."
"Huh? Is there a job you like?" Kim Taeyeon looked surprised. Who likes to work these days?
Soon, the singing ended, and Pei Zhuxuan raised her hand to untie her ponytail, tied it up again, and walked towards Cheng Taiqian.
"What's wrong, Brother Taiqian, what's the matter?"
"I'm going to change my clothes later. I have a video to shoot to say hello to the Chinese audience."
"Eh?"
This news made everyone stunned, and the first one to come to their senses was Bae Joo Hyun.
"Is it about the New Year's Eve party?" She heard Liu Xin'an mention this matter when she was chatting with him.
"Well, you are very popular in Xiaopo Station now, so they want to invite you to perform there. However, considering your schedule, the company does not plan to let you go there. Just take a video and send it over."
"ha?"
Hearing that the company did not intend to let them participate, Pei Zhuxuan and others were stunned for a moment, and then they exclaimed in unison.
Perhaps the exclamation was so loud that Cheng Taiqian himself was stunned.
"...You want to participate?"
The four people except Pei Zhuxuan nodded hurriedly, but Pei Zhuxuan did not join in the fun. She was frowning and thinking about the possibilities.
"Don't be kidding. You guys have a lot of schedules at the end of the year, and if you go to China to attend a party, you have to take time to learn two Chinese songs. In January, Seulgi and Seungwan, you guys, have a new song project, so you can't take the time.
Attended this party."
Cheng Taiqian frowned, wondering why these girls suddenly didn't know their priorities.
China is indeed a market that cannot be missed, but their foundation is definitely still in Goryeo.
Let’s finish the end-of-year itinerary first and then talk about the rest... There will be plenty of opportunities in the future.
This is indeed an issue that cannot be ignored. Sung Tae-cheon's scolding also made Jiang Seulgi and others calm down quickly.
Bae Zhuhyun took a deep breath and answered on behalf of the group.
"We know Brother Taiqian, so what is the content of the video taken later."
"I have a few words to say in Chinese. You guys should take a break first, put on your makeup and change clothes. You just want to say hello. There is no need to prepare a stage."
"yes."
"Oh, it's getting more and more amazing. Are you going to establish a foothold in China?"
Jin Xiaoyuan on the side couldn't stop praising her, and Cheng Taeqian looked back at her with a helpless smile.
"It's not that simple. There are still many problems waiting to be solved."
"But it's a good thing to receive an invitation, right?"
"That's true, but it's the end of the year...how can I find the time?"
...
"Ah~ it would be great if I could attend it live. The fans would definitely be very happy."
After changing her clothes, Jin Yelin still couldn't help but moan.
She knows very well that they can still maintain strong competitiveness after so many years since their debut and have experienced so many things, largely due to the love of Chinese fans.
Especially this year, the results of "queendom" clearly illustrate this point.
In the past, because they had no special advantage in the bonuses of foreign artists, they could only watch helplessly as K sucked the fans of Taiguo and Twice sucked the fans of Neon...
(Although Son Seung-wan is a foreigner in the setting, Canada is definitely not as influential as Asia)
But it's different now. Although they don't have this advantage,...the family members of their team leader are Chinese!
What a concept!
Pei Zhuxuan suddenly became a Chinese daughter-in-law (future), and this identity alone has won them the favor of so many Chinese people.
This is the market with the strongest purchasing power and the greatest potential in the world today!
"Seulgi and I have no problem. Sister Zhuhyun, how about you go and communicate with the company again?"
Sun Shengwan knew very well that in fact, the one who really wanted to agree to go to China was Bae Zhuhyun, so she and Jiang Seulgi exchanged a tacit glance and asked Bae Zhuhyun.
But what everyone didn't expect was that Pei Zhuhyun shook his head and showed a beautiful smile.
"Listen to Brother Taiqian. You and Seulgi have worked too hard during this period. If you fly to China again when you are so busy, you won't be able to hold on."
In fact, most of the year-end stages here are held separately in late December.
After all, there are three games to attend, and these three games will definitely not be held on the same day, so they are usually separated. For example, the SBS game is on Christmas Day on the 25th, and the KBS game is on the 28th...
So they were indeed able to take time out of these few days to go to China to participate in the rehearsal, and then officially appeared on the stage of the New Year's Eve party on the 31st.
It's just...not actually participating, just listing this schedule makes people feel tired.
Bae Zhuhyun has already brought the team to the forefront once because of his own selfishness, and Bae Zhuhyun does not want to do such a thing again.
So she simply followed Cheng Taiqian's suggestion and completely gave up on this idea.
It's a pity...of course it's a pity.
But there is nothing we can do about it.
"It doesn't matter?"
"Yeah, if your body is too busy because of your busy schedule, then it really matters. Don't think so much, just learn this Chinese paragraph first!"
Pei Zhuxuan raised her eyebrows and softly scolded the group of sisters who were constantly worried about him.
Her liveliness made everyone feel at ease, and they started practicing Chinese with the videos sent by Cheng Taiqian.
Naturally, the fastest learner was Pei Zhuhyun, who has a basic knowledge of Chinese. Now she is proficient in Pinyin. It was really easy for her to learn these few sentences to say hello and introduce herself in Chinese, so it didn’t take long for her to memorize this sentence.
In the heart.
And Son Seung-wan, who is very talented in language, quickly remembered these words. The main greeting was from Bae Zhuhyun. After all, popularity is a thing... everyone knows it, and the atmosphere in their team is still very good.
harmonious.
In order not to disturb everyone's silence, Bae Zhuhyun walked out of the room first and came to the place where he was going to record.
Sun Shengwan also walked out. She put her hand on Bae Zhuhyun's shoulder from behind, and was pushed away ruthlessly by Bae Zhuhyun.
"what?"
"It's so cold. I'm worried that you are in a bad mood."
"I think too much, I'm really fine." Pei Zhuxuan looked helpless. Why did everyone think she felt very uncomfortable.
"Looking at this, it seems that it really doesn't matter. Oh, our Sister Zhuhyun has grown up."
"ah!"
This roar frightened Sun Shengwan and she quickly apologized. She even muttered and acted coquettishly to please her like a child. Only then did Bae Zhuhyun turn her anger into a smile.
"You haven't seen Liu Xin'an for many days, right?"
Counting the time, Pei Zhuhyun has not seen Liu Xin'an for more than a week since December 9.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Their busyness during this period is obvious to all, and in order to ensure that they can meet the fans in their best appearance on the stage at the end of the year, even during the rest time, Bae Joo Hyun
I will take it out to do some body shaping exercises, such as Pilates.
How can I find time to run home and spend time with my boyfriend?
"Well...it's been almost ten days."
"Has it been so long?"
"Fortunately, we have video calls every day, so it doesn't really matter."
Speaking of Liu Xin'an, Pei Zhuxuan took out her mobile phone and after confirming that Liu Xin'an was not looking for her, she answered casually.
She is a very independent person. In the early stages of her relationship, she may have completely tied her heart to Liu Xin'an.
But now that they have been dating for a year, she has become accustomed to the feeling that Liu Xin'an is always there but does not need her to be with him at all times.
It's definitely better for couples to leave some private space for each other, just like now.
"Why won't he go home during the New Year?"
"Xin'an and the others celebrate the Lunar New Year. This year... it seems to be early February. He didn't go home until then."
"Sister Zhuhyun, do you want to come too?"
"I don't know. I haven't mentioned it yet. Let's talk about it then. If you're not busy, just follow me. If you're busy..."
"Follow me too?" Sun Shengwan winked, and his funny look made Bae Zhuhyun laugh.
"It depends on the situation, it's hard to say."
"Are you two almost ready?"
Cheng Taiqian walked in and asked with a smile after seeing the two chatting.
"Well, it's almost done."
"That's great. Take some footage and put it directly under your account when the time comes."
Cheng Taiqian waved to the door, and then several staff members specially responsible for filming and radio came in.
Because it is a greeting video to be placed at the New Year’s Eve party, professional photography is still necessary.
Soon, a camera was focused on Bae Zhuhyun and Son Seungwan. Facing the camera, the two people's originally relatively natural expressions instantly brightened.
Bae Zhuhyun even put her pretty face in front of the camera and lowered her voice, as if she was whispering in her ears.
"Right now, Seulgi and the others are still preparing. We are going to shoot a video to say hello to Chinese fans."
Not to mention that it will be broadcast at that time, even the staff in charge of filming Bae Zhuhyun can't stand it.
The male staff member who was responsible for taking close-up shots suddenly turned red in the face.
"I have learned a lot of Chinese recently, um... let me show you." Pei Zhuxuan took the bag she had put aside, picked out a vocabulary book, and showed it in front of the camera.
There are a lot of pinyin and some crooked Chinese characters written in the notebook.
But obviously, these Chinese characters are still unavailable for now. Realizing that the Chinese characters he wrote were exposed in front of the camera, Pei Zhuxuan hurriedly closed the notebook.
"Well... Chinese characters are still a bit too difficult, but please give me a little more time. I will appear in front of everyone with a better appearance."
Pei Zhuxuan put her hands on her lower abdomen, then whispered in a very cute tone, and did not forget to bow to the camera properly after speaking.
This series of actions made Sun Shengwan on the side look stunned.
The main reason is that this girl who usually likes to show off showed a very professional scene, which made it difficult for her to adapt for a while.
Fortunately, she is also a very professional artist when it comes to facing the camera.
"It's so false. I always brag about how good I am in Chinese."
"Yeah, don't tear me down!"
———
After recording the video greeting the Chinese fans, Bae Zhuhyun and others had time to have dinner.
Today they didn't eat those bland nutritious meals. Their recent activity level didn't require extremely low intake to maintain their figure, so they ate relatively normally.
"How about I pay and let Brother Xin'an deliver food to us?"
Ever since they last tasted the Bolognese Noodles prepared by Yoo Xin-an, Jiang Seulqi and Son Seungwan have become obsessed with the Bolognese Noodles.
It would be a waste not to use such a good cook. For this, they are willing to pay some money.
Of course, both Pei Zhuhyun and Liu Xin'an are short of money.
"Go, don't say stupid things." Pei Zhuxuan laughed and cursed. Before she could pick up Kuaizi again, her cell phone placed on the floor of the practice room suddenly began to vibrate violently.
Of course Pei Zhuxuan knew who made the call, because before eating, she had already told Liu Xin'an that she was going to eat.
She didn't avoid her sisters and answered the phone directly in front of everyone.
"Hello?"
"Where's dinner?"
"Um, what's wrong?"
"I heard that Xiaopozhan invited you, have you agreed?"
In addition to the routine chat with Pei Zhuhyun, Liu Xin'an also called to ask about this matter.
"Oh? How did you know that Brother Taiqian refused for us? We have too many things to do and can't handle it."
"Huh, that's fine. Fortunately, you refused. If you agreed, I would be embarrassed."
