At night, the floors of SM Company are still brightly lit, as if it were daytime, but when you walk around the corner, you suddenly encounter a figure, which is really surprising.
No, does this person walk without making any sound?
Chi Jingyuan was stunned for a second, then frowned and looked at the figure who had not returned so late, lingering like a ghost.
As soon as he glanced over, his eyes flickered.
Wearing a dark coat over a light yellow long-sleeved shirt, gray sweatpants and light-colored sneakers, with a bag on his right shoulder, he was dressed in a standard sportswear-like trainee's attire, nothing special about it.
But the white baseball cap with a duck pattern on the opponent's head is very conspicuous.
Chi Jingyuan knew this ghost, a girl he had not seen a few times but was quite familiar with, Pei Zhuhyun.
Because she was selected into SM Rookies, her hopes of debuting have greatly increased. Recently, she has been practicing until very late. Bae Zhuhyun has just finished practicing and is about to return to the dormitory. Since there is no one around, she is a little distracted and thinking about something.
, unexpectedly, a person suddenly came out from beside her and bumped into her.
She was obviously startled by the sudden encounter with Chi Jingyuan. She took two steps back in shock and swayed her body. She looked much more exaggerated than Chi Jingyuan.
After being frightened, she quickly looked over with her eyes. At that moment, Pei Zhuxuan recognized Chi Jingyuan, her eyes brightened obviously, and the panic on her face immediately disappeared.
"Anihasay..."
Pei Zhuxuan saluted and said hello in a low voice, glanced at Chi Jingyuan, and then lowered his head slightly unnaturally.
"Anihasay..."
Chi Jingyuan also nodded in response. He glanced up and down at Pei Zhuxuan, who had her head lowered, and his eyes stayed on her hat for a few seconds, but he didn't say much. After saying hello, he tightened his shoulder bag, and then
Walked towards the door.
He had just walked a few steps when he heard footsteps coming from behind.
This sister is making noises when she walks. She didn't know what happened just now.
He didn't pay attention at first, but when he walked around a corner, he found that the footsteps were still behind him. Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but stop and look back.
Pei Zhuxuan also immediately stopped, glanced up at him, then immediately looked in the direction of the floor, and began to study the direction of the floor texture.
"Senior, are you leaving the company too?"
A few meters away, Chi Jingyuan took the initiative to speak.
"Inside, get ready to go back to the dormitory..."
Pei Zhuxuan responded in a soft voice. The brim of her hat covered her forehead and eyes, making it difficult to see clearly. After finishing speaking, she hesitated for two seconds and added: "Jingyuan Xi debuted before me, so you should be the senior."
"
"Miah Nei, I'm used to it..."
Chi Jingyuan nodded and didn't ask any more questions. He turned around and continued walking towards the door. As he walked, he took out a mask from his bag and put it on his face.
He had to practice dancing in the evening, so he wore a loose hoodie and sweatpants. While dancing, he felt sweating and a little hot. However, the temperature this month has been relatively low, and it will be a bit cold especially at night.
He walked in front, and Pei Zhuxuan followed silently, blinking and looking at Chi Jingyuan's back, seeming to be thinking about something in his mind.
After walking out of the side door, a wave of cold air hit his face. Chi Jingyuan stood there and took a deep breath. At the same time, he opened his collar a little and blocked his chin slightly.
What's interesting is that Chi Jingyuan stood still, and Pei Zhuxuan also stopped there after following him out of the door. He rubbed his hands and feet without moving, as if he was waiting for him to go first and let him lead the way. Chi Jingyuan looked at
I thought it was very interesting.
After staying for two seconds, Pei Zhuxuan seemed to feel that her behavior was a bit funny. She quickly lowered her head and lowered the brim of her hat. She nodded slightly to Chi Jingyuan and was about to leave. However, just as she took a step forward, the other foot
Before he landed in the air, Chi Jingyuan's voice suddenly came over:
"Ex... Zhu Hyunxi, if you don't have anything more important to do and go back to the dormitory... do you want to take a walk? I happen to be fine now."
After hearing this, Pei Zhuxuan turned around in surprise and saw Chi Jingyuan smiling and pouting at him, as if he just made a very ordinary proposal.
Chi Jingyuan can be regarded as a whim. In addition to being a little interested in hearing news about the girl in front of him from Jiang Seulqi, he found that the two of them were really destined, just by chance since he entered the company.
We have met him several times. Today, when he was practicing alone until so late and preparing to go back, he still met Bae Zhuhyun. He didn't know what evil he had done.
As for the homework that I originally planned to go back to review, it doesn't matter if I delay it for a while.
"Uh... Gui."
Pei Zhuxuan was obviously a little grand about this sudden invitation. She pondered for a while before nodding and softly responding.
After responding, Chi Jingyuan gestured to her, and Pei Zhuxuan silently walked to Chi Jingyuan's side, slightly one step behind, and followed him forward.
The two people who were completely unfamiliar with each other walked side by side in this strange way. They didn't speak much along the way. They could only hear the continuous faint footsteps echoing in the alley under the moonlight.
After walking for a while, they arrived at the riverside walkway next to SM Company. Chi Jingyuan remembered that the reason why he was very impressed with this senior trainee who never said a few words was because he saw him crying bitterly last time here.
The atmosphere was not awkward, just a little strange.
Chi Jingyuan would look back at her from time to time, but Pei Zhuxuan seemed to be afraid of him. She looked at each other and quickly looked away, not knowing what she was afraid of.
After looking back again, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but speak: "Zhu Hyunxi, I feel like you are afraid of me. Have I done such a thing to make you so scared?"
"Ani, it's not like that..."
Pei Zhuxuan quickly shook her head and waved her hands, but did not continue.
"If it's not fear, it's something else..."
Chi Jingyuan looked her up and down. When he saw the duck, he suddenly laughed: "Isn't it because of the hat?"
"…………"
As if she was worried about what was said, Pei Zhuxuan pursed her lips and said nothing.
After that chance encounter by the river, Pei Zhuxuan got this Pokémon co-branded baseball cap from Chi Jingyuan. This hat has always been with her. She cherishes it very much and wears it often.
When she is in a bad mood, she will look at the silly Kodak above for a while. At such times, she can't help but laugh.
Sometimes she would look at the hat quietly in trance, inexplicably remembering some things that had happened in the past.
Unknowingly, this hat became something she liked very much and was very important to her.
But Pei Zhuxuan remembered very clearly that at that time, Chi Jingyuan lent her the hat just because he was worried that someone would see her when she went back with a face full of runny nose and tears. But now she feels guilty about taking it for herself, and at the same time she is also very worried.
I'm worried that Chi Jingyuan will take the initiative to ask for it, because Pei Zhuxuan is really reluctant to let it go.
This caused her to always be a little timid when facing Chi Jingyuan, not daring to look him in the face, for fear that the other party would think of him and take his hat back.
After hearing that the other party thought about it and pointed it out, Pei Zhuxuan became a little nervous, pursed her mouth, and seemed to be in a low mood.
At this time, I heard Chi Jingyuan chuckle and say casually:
