When the autograph session was about to end, another female fan appeared in front of me.
In the past, the number of places for EXO's nine-member autograph sessions was usually around 200. This time, Chi Jingyuan signed more than 100 by himself. In addition, everyone had to chat and give some feedback based on what the other person said. To be honest,
I was actually a little tired by now.
"Aniha Saiyo~"
However, Chi Jingyuan still maintained a just right smile and completed his work very well.
"May I ask your name..."
After seeing the fan sitting down, he took the initiative to take the album and autograph book, and at the same time raised his head and glanced at her.
She is also a woman in her twenties, with a fresh and beautiful face, especially her long eyes, which are very distinctive. However, she looks a bit older than him, maybe in the second half of her twenties.
Seeing this very distinctive appearance, Chi Jingyuan felt inexplicably that this female fan seemed vaguely familiar, as if she had seen her before.
But it was just a little bit, maybe he met her by chance during a certain interaction, and he really couldn't remember it.
"Anihasay~ My name is Li Zhizhi."
The female fan sat down and looked at Chi Jingyuan with a smile. She didn't look nervous. It was obviously not the first time she had faced Chi Jingyuan at such a close distance.
"...Perhaps we have met before?" Chi Jingyuan asked casually as he quickly wrote his name on the album cover and couldn't help but look up.
The name is very common. There are not even 10,000 but 8,000 girls with this name in the peninsula. I really can’t think of anything through the name.
"ha?"
Hearing that Chi Jingyuan had an impression of her, the female fan named Li Zhizhi seemed very happy and laughed directly. She looked at Chi Jingyuan with relief, nodded and said, "Maybe it's because I've been to XO twice before.
There was a book signing event, so Jingyuanxi still has some impression on me."
"Oh? Have you been to two XO autograph sessions? Let me tell you...which two were they?"
He said that he must have met her before. When he heard what she said, Chi Jingyuan understood. He lowered his head to sign and asked with a smile.
However, although he asked this, it was actually just out of politeness and he didn't really care... Because EXO has held too many autograph sessions over the years, and the number of fans who have signed autographs from him is countless.
Qing, so even if Li Zhihui said it, he probably wouldn't be able to remember it.
However, it is rare for him to feel that he has seen Mian Shan before and leave such an impression.
"I have bought XO autograph albums every time they come out over the years, but after buying hundreds of them over the years, I have only been able to get autograph quotations twice. Oh, and today is probably the third time...
…”
Li Zhizhi's eyes were locked on Chi Jingyuan. Although his voice sounded very happy, he didn't have much nervousness. Unlike many female fans who were too excited to speak before, he looked a little like he thought Chi Jingyuan was.
A good friend of many years:: "The last time was when "E" came back last year, and XO was at Yeongdeungpo."
"Was it there? What about the other time?"
Chi Jingyuan nodded in response, and his tone sounded somewhat understanding... But that was all it was. He really couldn't remember the autograph session. He only remembered that it was around the time of "Call Me Baby".
Sure enough, as he thought before, he had no impression at all.
"If it's the first time..."
Speaking of this, the female fan's voice suddenly became distant, and she recalled with an inexplicable color: "It was on May 11, 2012... I remember it very clearly, it was near the station in Jiangnan.
…”
"So early...12 years?"
Chi Jingyuan originally responded habitually, but after reacting, he was stunned for a moment, as if he thought of something from this date.
If we say that because he has held so many autograph sessions over the years, Chi Jingyuan's memories of many autograph sessions have been mixed together and become blurry. Even the autograph session for EXO's last comeback was a bit unimpressive.
But there are exceptions. After so many years since his debut, there are still a few memories of autograph signings that have a very special impression in his heart.
The most profound anomaly is what this female fan just said, about the scene on May 11, 2012...
Because that was the first autograph session held by EXO after their debut, and it was also the first autograph session that Chi Jingyuan attended.
And it's different from today's overcrowded autograph signings, because the autograph session when EXO failed to debut was extremely bleak. It was a public autograph session, but less than fifty people came during the whole process, and there were no assistants or assistants nearby.
There were many security guards, and XO, who had just debuted, was sitting in the deserted seats but forced to keep a smile on his face. The cold wind blew by made everyone feel cold, and his heart felt cold. He deeply realized the cruelty and indifference of the music industry.
Although his memory at the time was somewhat blurry, Chi Jingyuan was still deeply impressed by that autograph session.
After hearing the date and reacting, Chi Jingyuan looked at Li Zhihui in front of him with surprised eyes.
The female fan in front of me actually attended his first autograph session. In other words, she has been a fan of EXO since they first debuted? Even before their debut.
A true midwifery powder!
"Is it... our first autograph session?" Chi Jingyuan couldn't believe it, but asked tentatively.
"It's that scene."
Li Zhihui nodded with a smile and replied: "Jingyuanxi seems to have no memory, but I still remember it very clearly, because I went there just for Jingyuanxi. The way you signed your autograph for me at that time still reminds me of you.
It’s still fresh in my memory… Then, I’ll bring it over.”
As she spoke, she dug twice in the bag on her lap, took out an album and handed it over.
Chi Jingyuan quickly took it, and after taking a look, his heart suddenly shook.
This is a version of their EXO debut album "MAMA". The cover design looks a bit old-fashioned compared to today. On the cover, he has just debuted with scattered visual style hair and is wearing a black suit.
I put on a cool face, but now I look full of the atmosphere of the times and memories.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! There are also a few large words written in black oil pen on the cover of the album.
"Thank you for coming, it brings me great encouragement and support.
We will definitely continue to work hard.
I also wish you all the best
From Yuan."
Seeing these words, Chi Jingyuan suddenly couldn't help but feel a little lost.
He recognized that these words were written by himself...his former self.
Different from the freehand and skillful handwriting used when signing today, he had not signed many names at that time. His handwriting was very fair and youthful, and now he has been specially designed to write a beautiful and fashionable signature.
'Yuan' is different. The signature on the back cover is straight and straight but a little crooked. It has a youthful feeling of 'I want to sign more handsomely but I'm nervous because I haven't signed it often so I can't write it out'.
But this simple signature instantly filled Chi Jingyuan with memories and made his heart surge. At the same time, the eyes of the fans in front of him couldn't help but become eager.
This signed debut album is in excellent condition. The cover has lost its luster but has no scratches at all. It is obvious that it was taken out and looked at very carefully.
Moreover, Li Zhihui has come to sign autographs three times in the past few years. He has been fond of him for many years and has never stopped... Obviously, this is the most loyal and precious fan who has supported him since his debut.
Even though he and EXO have countless fans now, and they are "ten-year-old fans" on the Internet every day, Chi Jingyuan himself knows very well that at that time, EXO had just debuted and there were not many fans at all, and they were all criticized.
Fans who have been able to follow him from his debut until now are really rare, and each one of them means something extraordinary to him and is extremely precious.
Different from the previous business, Chi Jingyuan took the initiative to chat this time, asking her about her hobbies, her thoughts on this return, and if she had any suggestions.
"that……"
The two talked animatedly for a while, and when the time was almost up, the assistant came over to give a reminder, but was stopped by Chi Jingyuan with a wave of his hand.
Seeing this, Li Zhihui seemed to hesitate for a moment, took out his bag again, took out a small notebook, looked at Chi Jingyuan and asked tentatively: "Can you please Jingyuan Xi to write a blessing for me?"
I...I'm getting married."
"marry?"
Chi Jingyuan paused after hearing this and immediately smiled: "Really? That's such congratulations."
He glanced back and asked curiously with a smile: "Is the groom-to-be here today?"
"No, even though he bought two albums to please me, a lucky thing like signing the album won't happen to that unlucky guy~"
Li Zhihui shook his head and scolded the boyfriend who was not present angrily, but the smile on his face shone with warm happiness.
"Hehe, because it's actually thanks to you Jingyuanxi, and thanks to your song "Loved Before"..."
She smiled softly, with a look of reminiscence on her face, and said in a daze: "Although we were together, it was not very smooth. We have been separated and reunited over the years, and we always encountered some problems... We had actually broken up at that time.
, I was really in a bad mood those days, and I was thinking about letting it end like this... But on the 10th, you released your solo album. Of course, I listened to it immediately, and then I heard "Loved It"
"This song."
As she spoke, she seemed to be inspired by something, and after a short pause she hummed softly:
"We once loved each other, when we met."
"It becomes an unforgettable memory."
She eloquently told her little love story and softly hummed the chorus of "Loved Before". Although the word order and logic were slightly confusing, and her voice was trembling and slightly off-key, Chi Jingyuan listened.
Very serious and focused.
"When I heard the lyrics of this song, I really... felt sad and complicated, but also a little sweet. I always thought of some things in the past. There were the words 'The curtain fell quietly' and '
I loved you and that's enough', which made me wonder, 'Is this the end?'"
"Then, just when I was hesitating..."
"Then that night he suddenly appeared downstairs at my house, singing "Loved Before" loudly with his guitar..."
Li Zhizhi suddenly laughed, his tone became disgusted, but his smile was particularly bright: "It makes me... But, this song is really like what you said, it is really a song that makes people want to fall in love."
"So, we are actually very grateful to Jingyuanxi for this song."
Her emotions were a little complicated. She wiped the corners of her eyes gently to dry her eyes that were wet from her emotions. Then she looked at Chi Jingyuan and said in a funny tone: "I originally thought I would never get married.
I will always continue to act as 'your future girlfriend'. I really didn't expect that, Mi Ah Nei..."
Hearing her joking apology, Chi Jingyuan didn't say anything. He just looked at her with relief and satisfaction. He felt some empathy and moved in his heart, and said silently to himself:
In fact, I should be the one thanking you.
The time has expired, and the assistant next to me is ready to rush over again.
"Um……"
Sensing the movement next to her, Li Zhihui had no intention of staying. But before she was about to say goodbye, she suddenly thought of something. Looking at Chi Jingyuan, she showed an embarrassed smile for the first time and looked at him slyly: "Maybe there are some
It’s too much, but...can I hold my hand down?"
She pursed her lips and seemed extremely reluctant to give up: "I'm getting busier and busier at work, plus getting married... I may not have so much time to chase stars in the front line in the future. In fact, I don't have that much energy recently.
This autograph session may be the last time I attend...This has been my dream for a long time...I am worried that I will never have the chance again."
SM is very strict about the management of idol autograph signings and has never allowed physical contact between idols and fans during autograph signings. Although Chi Jingyuan is not very caring, intimate gestures such as holding hands are still very rare.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! For many Yuan fans, being able to have direct physical contact with Chi Jingyuan has always been a dream.
Hearing that she might no longer be able to pursue stars in the future, Chi Jingyuan felt a little uncomfortable and disappointed, but after hearing her reasons and looking at the anxious and expectant girl in front of him, he smiled brightly and spoke directly without hesitation.
Agreed.
He took the initiative to stretch out his left hand and grabbed Li Zhihuixu. Li Zhihui also slowly stretched out his right hand and moved closer tremblingly. After touching it, Chi Jingyuan took the initiative to shake it and interlocked the fingers of the two hands.
, stuck together closely.
"Ahhhh..."
The female fans below all witnessed this scene and discovered the special treatment of this female fan. They screamed and stood up with extreme jealousy.
"It feels so good,"
After achieving his long-cherished wish, Li Zhihui could no longer control his emotions. He pretended to be envious and relaxed, but tears were already flowing from his eyes: "I must be very happy to be your girlfriend."
Chi Jingyuan's hands were tightly clasped with hers, and he could clearly feel the girl's uncontrollable excitement.
"Maybe..."
He pursed his lips and said something uncertain, and then said: "But you will definitely not be worse than her."
Looking at the fan in front of him who has been silently supporting her since his debut, but may never see her again, Chi Jingyuan suppressed the emotion and touch in his heart, grinned at the corner of his mouth, curled his eyes, and smiled.
extremely brilliant:
"come on!"
…
After finishing the book signing and returning to her seat, Li Zhihui ignored the many glances from the side looking towards her. She took out the notepad that Chi Jingyuan had just returned to her, opened the first page, and saw what he had left for her.
talk:
"I'm really honored to meet you as an idol, and thank you for your love over the years. Your existence and love mean a lot to me.
I sincerely hope that you and your husband can live happily together...
Instead of "loved", write your "love senario" together!
Next, let me support you!
Must be happy~
FroYuan”
Looking at the last word 'Yuan' which was very similar to EXO's signature font when they debuted in 2012, Li Zhizhi also smiled brightly.
