"Sure enough, he is the second-ranked Peninsula artist with an annual income of 55 billion."
After Sunny waited for a while at the appointed place in an alleyway outside Girls' Generation dormitory, she looked at the eye-catching white coupe that appeared in her sight and slowly stopped in front of her. She first hugged her chest with both hands.
I drove the car around twice and then opened the gull-wing door. I stood at the door and couldn't help but smack my lips.
"You're driving such a handsome car just after you got your driver's license... Did you buy it with your share of the money?" She stepped into the passenger seat and then reached out to pull the car door. She looked quite skilled. It was probably not her first time.
A car with this kind of door.
As expected of a senior who has been in the industry for eight years, he is much more knowledgeable and mature and charming than some little brats who have never seen the world.
Watching her put on her seat belt, Chi Jingyuan stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the address that Taeyeon had just sent him. He put his hands on the steering wheel and looked at the road ahead, but he casually chatted with Sunny.
He said: "That's not...it was a gift from my brother."
"Sure enough, he is a member of the royal family." Sunny looked around at the interior of the car and sighed.
They also bought their own cars during their teenage years. The most expensive one among them, except for Lim Yoona, is probably Kim Taeyeon's Mercedes-Benz, but her car only costs about 200 million, but she only needs more than one.
Of course, it doesn't mean that you can't afford something more expensive, but if it's not very rare, you will naturally consider that your income and consumption level are equal.
Chi Jingyuan seemed very natural, moving his head from side to side: "That's right, how else could we airborne."
"Haha..." As soon as the word "sunny" came out, he seemed to think of the time when the two first met a few years ago. He couldn't help but laugh. He turned his head and glanced at Chi Jingyuan who was driving. He had first met a few years ago.
The face that I thought was very good-looking is still the same, but the appearance does not seem to have changed significantly, but the temperament has become much more capable and mature, and the aura exclusive to TOP idols is also clearly visible.
Chi Jingyuan also turned to her and tilted his head. They looked at each other and laughed, then turned back and continued driving, feeling a little happy in their hearts.
He really enjoyed this kind of intimacy and nostalgia between friends without any ambiguity.
fine.
The address Kim Taeyeon posted was a barbecue restaurant in Sindang-dong, Jung-gu, Seoul. It was a little far away from Girls’ Generation’s dormitory in Gangnam-gu. Fortunately, it was late at this time and the traffic flow on the road had reduced a lot, so there were no traffic jams along the way.
We arrived at our destination soon.
The parking lot is right at the door. After Chi Jingyuan parked the car, the two of them put on disguises, got out of the car and walked towards the store. Before Chi Jingyuan entered, he looked up at the door with the characters "Golden Pig" written on it.
Shop sign.
He muttered a few words, and he felt that the name of this store seemed familiar. It seemed that someone from EXO had recommended this store to him, but he forgot whether it was Kim Junmyun or Oh Sehun.
The business was really good. It was already eleven o'clock. When Chi Jingyuan and the two came in, there were still many diners queuing up outside, waiting for their meal. Once they entered, the brightly lit lobby on the first floor was also overcrowded, and waiters kept shuttling in and out.
The dishes, the sound of sizzling oil and the aroma of barbecue permeate the surroundings, making it difficult not to feel your index fingers wide open when you are in it.
"Hello, do you two have an appointment?"
"My friend has already come here first, on the third floor."
Chi Jingyuan said something to a waiter who took the initiative to greet him. As soon as he said the words, the waitress's expression immediately changed when she looked at him. She looked at Chi Jingyuan and Sunny with some curiosity and exploration in her eyes, and also
Not sure if he recognized it or not, he quickly came to his senses and looked away. He said, "Please follow me." Then he led the two of them upstairs, introducing them as they walked.
This barbecue restaurant is very large, with three floors in total. The first and second floors are the hall and private rooms mainly used for dining.
Generally, pets are not allowed in hotels, but this restaurant is an exception. There is a special area on the second floor where pets can be brought to eat. Although you have to call in advance to inquire, it is generally quite considerate.
The third floor has the smallest area, but is generally not open to the public. According to the waiter, it is usually reserved for debut artists or celebrities. At the moment, there seems to be only one table of people dining on the third floor. No wonder the waiter heard that Chi Jingyuan
When a few people went to the third floor, they immediately looked strange. They obviously knew that they were also artists, but I didn't know whether they recognized them or not.
Just when Chi Jingyuan and Sunny followed the waiter to the second floor and were about to go up to the third floor, suddenly a woman's voice came from not far away and stopped him.
"Excuse me……"
Chi Jingyuan looked back and found that she was a young woman in her thirties, slightly fat, with a delicate face and wearing professional attire. She looked quite mature. At this time, she looked at Chi Jingyuan with some surprise: "Maybe... it's a starring role
Chi Jingyuanxi from "Misborn"?"
Although she used probing and questioning sentence patterns, Yue was quite certain, and she must have recognized it.
"..."
Looking at the young lady in front of him who might be a fan of his own or the drama "Misheng", Chi Jingyuan thought for a moment and did not deny it. He nodded and returned: "Hey, I am Chi Jingyuan, Anihasai."
Yo."
He took the initiative to put down his mask, saluted slightly and said hello with a smile.
Seeing Chi Jingyuan so close, both the fan Nuna in front of him and the waiter in front of him brightened up and looked at Chi Jingyuan's face greedily.
"I'm so lucky. When I came out to make a phone call, I accidentally glanced at you and thought it was you... The hair color mainly exposed from the hat is really eye-catching. Today's meal is really lucky."
Although this Noona smiled happily, she was not as crazy and at a loss as ordinary student fans when they saw Chi Jingyuan. She was admiring the other party's pleasing sight and her words were also very organized.
"Haha, I'm very lucky too."
Chi Jingyuan smiled and said modestly.
The other party was obviously an older, more mature and sensible fan. He neither asked for a photo nor an autograph, which made Chi Jingyuan quite relaxed. He couldn't help but chat for a few words. He didn't deliberately distance himself or get too close.
Very well handled.
"Miah Nei, I was so happy that I forgot the time. Jingyuan Xi is here to have dinner with friends." Fan Nuna suddenly remembered that he had wasted a lot of time. His eyes glanced at Sunny next to him, but he had no interest in talking to her.
He apologized a little embarrassedly: "Then I won't disturb Jingyuan Xi, Fighting, I will support you."
"Kangsangmita."
After thanking each other, the other party left without any entanglement. Chi Jingyuan and Sunny looked at each other, pursed their lips, and went upstairs to the third floor without stopping.
The area on the third floor was much smaller, and there were several private rooms of different sizes. Under the leadership of the waiter, Chi Jingyuan and the other two walked directly into the room on the left. Before they even entered, they could hear the sound of Thai people inside.
Sister Yan’s familiar voice.
"Watching a movie? What movie to watch? Are there any good movies recently?"
"I heard that "Heo Sam-gwan's Blood Seller" is very good, but it seems that it was released in January and has not been released yet... and "Twenty", which will be released soon, starring Kim Woo-bin and Lee Jun-ho, should also be good.
Okay...Jingyuan is here!"
As soon as Chi Jingyuan entered the box, the room suddenly became lively. He recognized the people inside with a glance, Kim Taeyeon, Huang Miying and Kim Heechul.
These three people felt a bit small, and he thought Jin Qifan was there too.
"Jingyuan, come quickly!"
"Hey Yigu, the two busy people from Wuli are finally here, let the brothers and sisters wait like this." Jin Heechul stood up immediately when he saw the two people coming in, and jokingly walked over and patted Chi Jingyuan with a smile.
shoulders, and then opened his hands to Sunny as if he wanted to hug him. Sunny, whose mask was taken off, walked past him without even looking, and sat on the seat next to Huang Meiying completely ignoring him.
Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but laugh in his heart, and Jin Heechul didn't care either. He smiled and signaled to the waiter that the food was ready, then closed the door and pulled Chi Jingyuan to the position opposite the three sisters.
"Ah, didn't you say it will end at ten o'clock? It's already past eleven o'clock after all this time. Have you ever taken my birthday to heart?" Kim Taeyeon started to feel happy when she saw the two of them, and then quickly stopped.
He folded his arms across his chest as a gesture, and looked at the two people complaining as if he was angry.
As the protagonist of this meal, Kim Taeyeon, who is one year older, is dressed very beautifully today. Her long black hair is slightly curled and hangs from the sides of her neck to her chest. She wears a white fluffy snowflake jacket with the same color as the inner lining.
The bottom shirt looks very delicate. In early March, she had already put on a pink hip-covering skirt before her lower body was over. The skirt stopped abruptly close to her knees. On her feet, she stepped on a pair of white round-toe high heels, holding her hands
He crossed his chest, crossed his legs, and swayed his right foot.
Just by looking at her dress, I thought she looked like she had just recorded a program. She is delicate yet dignified, giving her the look of a mature woman.
After all, it was in 1989.
"Of course I don't, Jingyuan doesn't know."
Sunny seemed to be afraid that Kim Taeyeon wouldn't be angry, so she replied as she should, then took her chopsticks and started to look at the side dishes on the table. Her lazy look seemed to be done deliberately to annoy her, which made Chi Jingyuan laugh for a while.
.
"Ani, I wasted a little time when I went back to change clothes." Chi Jingyuan explained briefly and changed the subject with a smile: "Nuna, what were you talking about just now? Do you want to watch a movie?"
Glancing at Sunny angrily, Kim Taeyeon acted like she was too lazy to care. After all, she was not really angry. She quickly smiled and nodded: "Just now Pani suggested that we go to the movies together when we are free. I said
I want to watch a horror movie."
"Yi~" Huang Meiying frowned and fanned with her hand, as if to dispel some strange smell: "If you want to watch a horror movie, you have to go by yourself. I just checked that there are no good movies on the peninsula recently. The subject matter
It’s all quite boring, I want to watch a Hollywood blockbuster.”
"Tch, if outsiders hear this, you will be dead." Taeyeon curled her lips and warned, then looked at Chi Jingyuan: "Jingyuan, do you want to find a chance to go see a movie together in the next two days?
?”
"..." Chi Jingyuan raised his eyes and thought about his recent itinerary, and shrugged: "Of course it's no problem if you have time, but I've been very busy lately... and I just looked at it yesterday.
, there are no recently released movies that I am more interested in?"
"What do you want to see?" The eyes of several people nearby glanced over.
"What I'm more interested in is a cartoon that has just been released in Neon, but has not been introduced in the peninsula yet, "Doraemon: Nobita's Heroes of the Universe"."
Feeling the gazes of several people, Chi Jingyuan looked at them with great interest, and Amway was very confident: "I saw the preview introduction, it must be very good. This time the theater version is mainly about..."
"yi~~cartoons..."
"Hahaha Jingyuan, your hobbies are really quite contrasting. It's so interesting." When they heard that it was a cartoon, several sisters were a little disgusted. Kim Heechul laughed and patted his shoulder. Regarding his Amway
I have no interest in it, but I find his hobby very interesting.
As soon as Chi Jingyuan looked at the expressions of several people, he knew that they were not interested at all, and their enthusiasm suddenly died down. He shook his head and sighed in his heart.
No vision at all.
The same goes for the EXO group. Chi Jingyuan once took the initiative to bring up watching a released animation together, but no one responded at all and was ignored. Several people turned to watch a suspense movie that had just been released.
piece.
Chi Jingyuan was a little helpless, and he didn't know when a relative with similar hobbies to his would appear in his circle of friends.
At this time, there was a knock on the door of the private room. After Huang Meiying responded, the door was pushed open. Several waiters came in with carts and prepared the oven and all the dishes. After asking if they needed help with the barbecue, they were rejected.
Then he politely left and closed the door.
"Ah, I can finally eat. I'm starving to death." Huang Meiying glanced around the fresh and bright dishes, stretched out and clapped her hands with satisfaction.
"Wait a minute, let's sing the congratulatory song first!" Kim Heechul saw Huang Meiying looking like she was about to stretch out her chopsticks, and quickly interrupted her, took out a cake that had been prepared with candles from the side, and took it out casually.
He took out a lighter and lit the candle, then gestured to Chi Jingyuan with his eyes.
Chi Jingyuan took the cake knowingly, stood up and raised it in front of Kim Taeyeon. Several people nearby also clapped and sang a congratulatory song. Looking at Sunny, who was having trouble with Taeyeon just now, he also smiled and clapped his hands.
of joy.
“Birthday thick card Hamida~”
“Birthday thick card Hamida~”
The singing voices of several people soon filled the entire box. Kim Taeyeon smiled very happily. Her eyes stayed on everyone's face for a second, and she couldn't control her joy and said "HOHO".
He laughed boldly, then quickly reached out to cover his mouth, laughing so hard that he lowered his head and shook several times.
"I'm going to blow!"
After waiting for a few seconds, Kim Taeyeon raised her head again and made a declaration. Then she used the singer's lung capacity, puffed up her cheeks and blew out all the candles in an instant. At the same time, several friends nearby also
There were cheers and cheers, and the scene suddenly became very lively and warm.
In fact, no one likes to eat the cake, but it just serves a symbolic purpose. After blowing out the candles, Chi Jingyuan put it aside and clapped and cheered along with several others.
"Eat first, and chat while you eat." The protagonist Kim Taeyeon gave the order with a wave of her hand, and several people put on the aprons given by the hotel and started to move.
"Want a drink?"
"Forget it, I drove here."
"I can't even drive...Okay, forget it."
After a brief exchange, as the youngest among the friends present, Chi Jingyuan naturally took the initiative to pick up the tongs and scissors and started grilling and cutting the meat, and started serving the sisters.
Although the waiter should generally be responsible for the operation, these people are all artists after all, and their conversations are very private. It is not appropriate for outsiders to be present, so the maknae Chi Jingyuan can only do it for him.
He doesn't think it's okay. When EXO gathers for barbecue, even though Wu Sehun does most of the time, he occasionally helps when he sees that Wu Sehun is too busy. After all, it is one of the maknae's jobs.
"The more I think about it, the more unhappy I become."
After chatting for a while, she wrapped a piece of barbecue and ate it in her mouth. Before she could swallow it, while she was still chewing, Kim Taeyeon thought of something and frowned. Just now, her face was full of joy because of blowing out candles. She was very fickle.
He looked at Chi Jingyuan with sharp eyes: "Last time I asked you to go out to play in Xia Kingdom, you didn't go. This time I asked you to watch a movie but you didn't go. Today, the junior is not here. Who are you performing for?"
"I didn't say not to go..." Chi Jingyuan blinked innocently, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by a few excited people next to him.
"Jinjia? Is Jingyuan dating a junior in the company?"
"Which junior is which junior?"
Sunny, who was happily eating a piece of barbecue just handed over by Chi Jingyuan, was stunned for a moment. She was surprised to join in the gossip with Kim Heechul, and looked at Kim Taeyeon with interest.
Huang Meiying was there last time, so she wasn't curious at all. She ate barbecue and watched the fun with a smile.
Everyone here is very close relatives, and there is no need to worry about who will tell. Kim Taeyeon first looked at Chi Jingyuan, turned the meat over with chopsticks, and pursed her lips: "It's red velvet's."
That captain, Irene, Bae Zhuhyun, that female trainee who was very famous before."
"Really? Didn't Red Velvet just debut? Has it been half a year?" Sunny's eyes widened and he glanced back and forth as if he had heard wrongly.
"Irene? Her and Jingyuan?" Jin Heechul was also a little surprised.
"I felt there was something wrong with these two people when they were backstage after the last Golden Record. I don't know exactly whether they are dating, but it is definitely not an ordinary relationship."
Kim Taeyeon wrapped a roasted meat and looked at Chi Jingyuan before feeding it into her mouth. She said firmly: "At that time, the two of them were whispering and laughing. The intimacy was definitely not that of ordinary friends. Plus, later on we
The look in her eyes when she called Jingyuan out, tut tut..."
Recalling the scene at that time, Kim Taeyeon also vividly imitated Bae Zhuhyun's expression and eyes. Huang Miying who was watching next to her laughed loudly and kept applauding as an atmosphere group, while Chi Kyungwon sighed and shook his head.
.
He just debuted a few years ago, and when he first met this sister, he came to the lounge to ask for his contact information. She obviously came with a purpose at that time, and Chi Jingyuan could see it clearly, but as for whether the purpose was to have a serious relationship,
He doesn't know how to make friends with the younger generation. After exchanging contact information, sometimes this sister will send some photos or messages that are beyond ordinary friends.
However, with the passage of time, the relationship between the two gradually changed as they got to know each other better and found that they were closer to each other. The previous ambiguity slowly disappeared, and only friends remained.
Even the relatively pure friendship between siblings feels much more sincere than before.
Maybe it was because she remembered that she had taken the initiative a few years ago but failed miserably, which made Kim Taeyeon a little angry. When she mentioned Bae Zhuhyun, who was obviously ambiguous with Ji Kyungwon, her tone was a little unkind for some reason.
However, she quickly adjusted and added after finishing the barbecue in her mouth: "Speaking of which, I saw that child just now. In the afternoon, Red Velvet was recording a live promotional video before their comeback. The company asked
I made a guest appearance, and some kids even gave me birthday cakes."
"Really, you and Irene?" Sunny looked at Chi Jingyuan and raised a curious eyebrow. Several other people also looked over.
"I'm not dating." Chi Jingyuan didn't hide any privacy. He paused mid-sentence and felt that the people next to him seemed to be a little disappointed because they didn't hear the gossip and answers they wanted to hear. He laughed and added.
One sentence: "As for other aspects, just a little bit..."
