Seeing Yu Dingyan and Minazaki Saka sneaking over and hearing the word mysteriously from their mouths at the same time, Chi Jingyuan asked strangely: "Who is it?"
"It's Mina, today is her birthday..." Minazaki Saka lowered her voice. She didn't know what she was thinking of when she said that. She tilted her head and looked over without knowing why.
It looks a little strange and not very natural.
"Today is Mina's birthday. After that, she will be twenty years old." Yu Dingyan was very normal and explained.
"Isn't she a neon person? Isn't the calculation of age different from that of Peninsula?" Chi Jingyuan interjected.
"According to the Peninsula, she is an adult..." He waved his hands indifferently and said with a smile: "It's a very important birthday, so we want to give her a birthday surprise..."
Chi Jingyuan felt a little weird when he heard what they said. He really didn't know that today was Ming Jingnan's birthday, and he didn't pay much attention to it recently.
Mingjing Nan is not like Zhou Ziyu who would send text messages to Chi Jingyuan when his birthday is approaching, saying things like 'Oh, it's June', 'I didn't have a good rest yesterday, I went to bed at 1 o'clock and got up at 4 o'clock' and so on.
Various hints and explicit stupid remarks. When Najing Nan occasionally contacted him recently, for example, the two of them chatted for a long time about Pokémon the day before yesterday. Although they were quite attached to each other, the girl did not mention anything about her birthday.
Category.
"Birthday surprise? What do you want to do?"
After thinking for a moment, Chi Jingyuan blinked and asked.
Seeing his expression, I guess there is a clue. The two of them looked happy. Yu Dingyan said quickly: "Just wait until the evening, when the practice is about to end, Jingyuan Oppa, find a reason to criticize Mina, be a little harsher.
, and then found an excuse to rush us to the door. After a while, when Mina was made sad by your scolding, we secretly turned off the lights, and then we came in with a birthday cake to surprise her.
"She might have shed tears at the time, and then she listened to us singing the congratulations and blowing out the candles... Wow, this kind of reversal is the most touching."
As Yu Dingyan said this, he closed his eyes for a moment, as if he had already imagined the scene, and he grinned proudly.
After Chi Jingyuan listened carefully, he asked with a strange expression: "Which of you came up with this? Lin Nalian?"
He thinks this plan is stupid...
"Ani, we came up with it together." As if she was worried about being given the credit, Minazaki Saka quickly added, opening her mouth slightly, with a sly expression, and looking at him with lively eyes, as if she was asking for credit.
appearance.
Chi Jingyuan opened his mouth and did not ask any more questions.
He didn't have any objection to this group of girls giving a birthday surprise to the little sister of his group, not to mention that Ming Jingnan's relationship with him was a little different, so it didn't matter if he ended the practice a little early, but Chi Jingyuan recalled his feelings for Ming Jingnan.
Jing Nan asked hesitantly, "In this case...will she believe it?"
He felt that Mingjing Nan was a very smart girl, and it would be difficult for a few people to deceive her with a 'birthday surprise' like this.
But Minazaki Saka looked at him and blinked: "If it were you Oppa, you should be able to do it."
Her eyes were large and very lively, shining brightly, and seemed to contain some other meaning.
"Hey, Oppa is the producer." Yu Dingyan also echoed, but her meaning seemed to be a little different from Minatozaki Saka. After nodding, she thought of something else and looked back in the direction of the practice room.
, added in a low voice: "When the time comes, Oppa will be stricter, just like what you said that day... about Nayeon Unni."
"..."
Inexplicably, he remembered Lin Nalian's wrinkled face and ugly cry that day. The corners of Chi Jingyuan's mouth twitched twice, and then without much thought, he nodded and agreed: "Okay, let's just say that."
"Thank you Oppa, Kang Sangmita!" The two people laughed immediately and happily thanked Chi Jingyuan.
After discussing some details of the 'surprise', Yu Dingyan and Minatozaki Saka returned to the practice room first, but Chi Jingyuan did not join them. He stood in the corridor outside and pondered for a few seconds, thinking of the two people from the previous two days.
When someone was discussing anime, he took out his cell phone and called his assistant Cui Zhichang:
"Hey, don't worry... Brother, are you in the company... Then go to our dormitory now. There is a box in the cabinet next to my bed. There are a few unopened ones in it... Yes, then look for one with a penguin pattern.
, the blue and white penguin, stupid, you can see it at first glance... Well, then find a gift shop to wrap it, it doesn't have to be exquisite, just wrap it... Send it to JYP, and give it to Jaehyun hyung when it arrives.
Just call him and give it to him..."
After explaining everything to the assistant in detail, Chi Jingyuan hung up the phone.
Forget it if you don’t know, but now that you know that Najing Minami’s birthday is today, which is an important birthday in the peninsula, naturally it’s better to prepare a gift. Whether it’s friends who have a common code, they still call each other ‘Ganba’
This is true for all gaming partners.
After returning to the practice room, Chi Jingyuan immediately felt several eyes on him. Except for Mingjing Nan, who had normal eyes, some of the other members who participated in the 'birthday surprise' were very calm, such as Kim Dahyun,
Zhou Ziyu, but also some like Sun Chaeyoung and Lin Nayeon, their eyes were burning, and their expressions looked like they were anxious to check their passwords and confirm they were teammates.
Chi Jingyuan didn't feel anything unusual. He chatted casually with Twice's manager Jin Sangmin. When he saw the two of them out of the corner of his eye, he felt a little speechless.
You two are like this and you still want to deceive someone named Jingnan...
Soon Lin Nalian seemed to realize that something was wrong with her expression, and immediately coughed and pretended to calm down, but the eyes that peeked over her from time to time revealed her inner excitement and expectation.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The next step is to continue practicing "Cheer Up" to get familiar with the newly changed choreography. At the same time, Chi Jingyuan will evaluate it according to the standards of a formal performance.
Everyone's movements and typhoons.
As the nine people of Twice danced "Cheer Up" over and over again, time slowly passed, and the sky outside the window gradually became dark. As the dance teacher left for dinner, and Jin Sangmin also left temporarily because of something, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but
I looked at the time without trace.
Some thoughtful people noticed his action immediately, and immediately felt a chill in their hearts, knowing that their plan was about to begin.
Sure enough, this time "cheer up" was halfway through, and Chi Jingyuan stopped at the bridge.
"Mina, your head is tilted too hard here, it seems a little deliberate."
"Ah, I'm sorry." Mingjing Nan didn't think anything was wrong when his name was called, and he quickly responded and nodded obediently to show that he understood.
"Come again."
Chi Jingyuan remained calm and pursed his lips with a smile.
He felt that the plan discussed by Twice and the others was a bit inappropriate. How could they criticize others without any reason at first? He had been in contact with them for so long and he had basically never lost his temper. It was too sudden and easy to see through. If he wanted to act, he would definitely
It is necessary to take it step by step, and to pretend that you are anxious about being made by Mingjing Nan before you have an attack, so that it will be more realistic.
"Do it again, it still doesn't feel right..."
"Inside……"
Chi Jingyuan shook his head again, this time his smile faded a little.
"It was okay this time...but my laughter was unnatural at the beginning."
"Come again."
"Um."
"Oh, it won't work this time."
His tone became slightly impatient.
After dancing several times in succession, Producer Chi was still dissatisfied. Ming Jingnan felt a little anxious, and her mood obviously began to fluctuate. When she stopped dancing, she was already a little nervous when facing Chi Jingyuan and others.
I can't laugh anymore.
Finding faults is the easiest, no one can dance perfectly.
In fact, based on Chi Jingyuan's understanding of Mingjing Nan, if she said at this time, 'Can you be more serious, you will drag the whole team to repeat it all by yourself?' This kind of words would be the most damaging to her.
Girls care about this the most.
But after thinking about it, he gave up saying that. It was just a joke for his birthday surprise, and it was better not to say such really hurtful words.
At this time, the other members of Twice also saw that the show had started, with different expressions on their faces as Chi Jingyuan and Mingjing Nan danced over and over again. At this time, the difference in acting skills was reflected. Some people had expressionless faces.
They kept wiping their sweat and pretending to be tired, while some people stared brightly, looking left and right every time they stopped, grinning as if they were joining in the fun, for fear that others would not notice.
I know she is a ghost.
Finally, after many interruptions, Chi Jingyuan felt that the atmosphere was about the same. When he stopped again, his expression became ugly. He looked at Mingjing Nan and frowned:
"Mina, I've said it several times, why can't I feel progress? Do you think what I said is wrong?"
"Ani...I..."
Najing Nan shook her head vigorously and tried to explain with a slightly louder voice. However, after she opened her mouth, she didn't know what to say and could only lower her head.
"Yeah! Do you want to see how you dance for yourself? There happens to be a DV next to you." Chi Jingyuan said angrily, pointing to a fixed camera set up next to him that was originally used to record behind-the-scenes. Then he saw the name
Jingnan still lowered his head and twirled his fingers, looking a little sad and not speaking, and finally emphasized his tone: "Did you become less attentive when your manager was away? Who is that..."
Chi Jingyuan stretched out his hand and pointed casually to the side: "Go and call Jin Shangmin over and ask him to keep an eye on it."
"...Oppa, no need..."
twThe others looked at each other, Minazaki Saka still frowned, pouted slightly, and pretended to persuade.
"Hurry up and go, everyone."
"oh……"
Hearing Chi Jingyuan's impatient tone, several other members hurriedly pushed and shooed them out. When Zhou Ziyu was about to go out, he blinked and looked back.
Chi Jingyuan breathed a sigh of relief after watching the crowd walk out of the practice room. However, when he turned his head and looked at Mingjing Nan again, he found that he had been a little depressed and anxious because of the criticism just now, and had kept his head buried.
Najing Nan, who was almost about to cry, suddenly raised his head, tilted his head and squinted his eyes slightly, looking at him with strange eyes through the bangs on his forehead.
"..."
Chi Jingyuan's heart tightened. He immediately felt that the girl seemed to have seen something. However, being on the stage, he still gritted his teeth and continued to perform, still frowning as before, looking as if he was being troubled.
He looked at her anxiously and angry: "When the agent comes, I'll see if you are still like that, Mina."
""Cheer Up" is the title song, and your weight is so heavy, so the expressiveness is really not good..."
While he was talking, Mingjing Nan looked at him, her dark eyes seemed to be talking and asking, but halfway through, she didn't know what she thought of, and she no longer looked at Chi Jingyuan, but
He lowered his head as before, as if he hadn't discovered anything, and started playing with his fingers again.
"you……"
Seeing the changes in her eyes before and after, Chi Jingyuan suddenly felt like he was being co-starred. He felt inexplicably embarrassed all over his body. He opened his mouth but didn't make a sound. He couldn't continue acting.
After roughly estimating that the time was almost up, he glanced at the lowered Najing Minami speechlessly for the last time, walked a few steps to the side, and turned off the lights in the practice room with a 'pop' sound.
This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Suddenly, the entire practice room became extremely quiet. You could only vaguely hear the breathing of two people and the restlessness outside from far to near. Through the light outside the window,
, Chi Jingyuan vaguely saw Mingjing Nan raising his head again, looking at him with bright eyes.
Soon, there was a burst of messy footsteps outside, and the door of the practice room was pushed open with a bang. All the other members of Twice, as well as several assistants, gathered around Saka Minatozaki, who was holding a birthday cake in the middle.
When I came in, there was an assistant behind me with a small DV filming the whole thing.
The cake is not big but looks quite delicate. Two candles have been inserted on it. In the dim light of the light, you can still see the letters 'mina' written in strawberry cream.
"Surprise!"
"Birthday rough card."
As soon as they came in, Lin Nayeon, Sun Chaeyoung and others immediately laughed and shouted loudly. Several people jumped and jumped to Mingjingnan and surrounded her and started to boo, and soon everyone took pictures together.
He began to sing a congratulatory song:
"Chengri thick kahamida."
"Salanghey to mina~"
Looking at the sudden surprise, Mingnan looked completely unexpected. She first grinned happily, looking pink and tender under the candlelight, and then covered her mouth with both hands, her eyes flashing.
Ah Xian looked like he wanted to cry with joy, his mist-covered eyes swayed from side to side, his gaze turned back and forth on the cake and the smiles of the members next to him, and then he suddenly glanced back and met Chi Jingyuan standing behind.
eyes.
At this time, Chi Jingyuan had already retreated to the back of the crowd, applauding gently, and laughing and humming songs along with the others. After noticing the way Najing Nan was looking at him, he naturally narrowed his eyes.
He smiled and tilted his head slightly.
From just now, he felt that Mingnan had seen through their plan, but now he still looked like he was in tears. He didn't know whether he was cooperating with the performance, or he was really moved.
Although the performance and plan are relatively poor, from the bent eyes and red eye sockets of Nai Minami, the happy and bright smile and expression, and the unrestrained exposed gums, the result of this plan should still be very good.
.
"Blow out the candles!"
With the blessings of the members, Nai Minami finally clasped his hands and closed his eyes to make a wish, then puffed up his mouth and blew out the candles vigorously. Then everyone cheered. This 'birthday surprise' was considered a complete success.
The assistant next to him turned on the light, and the other members gathered around happily, laughing when they talked about the performance just now:
"Hahaha, you must be scared. Wow, I was shocked just now."
"I almost laughed just now... Mina probably didn't see it, right?"
"Oh, why are you really crying? Stop crying."
Seeing Nai Minami really cry, with tears running down her cheeks, Sun Chaeyoung and Minazaki Saka hugged her with some concern, thinking she was scared.
"Ani..." Allowing the two of them to take advantage of him, Najing Nan reached out and wiped the corners of his eyes gently, then raised the corners of his mouth and explained in a soft voice: "I'm happy...I'm really happy."
"It was my idea!"
"Obviously we thought about it together."
"Unnie, here's a birthday card for you."
Chi Jingyuan watched behind the crowd for a while, watching the little girls hugging each other while crying, sometimes laughing, sometimes giving out prepared gifts, and sometimes arguing noisily over merit. He smiled and shook his head.
Then he walked to the side, took out a wrapped gift from his shoulder bag, and walked over.
He looked at Mingjing Nan, who still had red eyes and sniffed, but smiled brightly, without even having sex with her. He also smiled softly, stretched out his hand and handed the gift to Mingjing Nan: "Happy birthday.
"
"Kangsangmita."
Mingjing Nan raised his watery eyes and glanced at Chi Jingyuan, pursed his lips slightly, reached out and took the rustling hand and thanked her.
"Then that's it for today, I'm leaving first." After giving away the gifts, Chi Jingyuan said goodbye and prepared to leave.
"Oppa, let's go have dinner together later to celebrate Mina Unnie's birthday." Seeing that Chi Jingyuan was about to leave, Kim Dahyun hurriedly came up to try to stay.
"You go ahead, I won't go."
Although Mingjing Nan looked at him and nodded slightly with expectation, Chi Jingyuan refused directly.
If a group celebrates a member's birthday, what does it matter if he goes there?
Taking one last look at Mingjing Nan in the center of the crowd, Chi Jingyuan waved his hand, and walked out directly with Park Jae-hyun, followed closely by the twittering of farewells:
"Goodbye Oppa..."
…
"When did you discuss this with them?"
After midnight in the evening, after returning to the dormitory from the company and just taking a shower, while chatting with others and watching TV on the sofa, Chi Jingyuan received a text message from Ming Jingnan.
Although I don’t know where they went to have dinner to celebrate later, I think Ming Jingnan must have had a good birthday.
"At four or five o'clock in the afternoon, they secretly came outside and told me when you weren't paying attention..."
Chi Jingyuan leaned on the sofa and replied, briefly explaining, then thinking of the scene at that time, he asked curiously: "Then when did you realize something was wrong?"
"Hmm... I feel like you guys were acting. You could tell when you asked the other members to call their managers... But if you feel something is wrong, I'll feel it from the moment you say 'Yeah'."
"qingjia?"
"Because even if you wanted to criticize me, you wouldn't say 'yeah'. If it were you, you would probably say 'mina xi, do you want to see how you dance?' or something like that..."
Chi Jingyuan was a little surprised when he saw this, but it was expected.
From the very beginning, he didn't think that people like Twice with mixed acting skills could deceive Mingjing Nan.
I just didn't expect that I would be the first to be exposed...
"You know me so well?" He tilted his head and typed on his phone.
"hey-hey……"
"Then if you had guessed it in advance, wouldn't the effect of the 'birthday surprise' be greatly reduced?"
"No...even though there were some speculations, when the members came up to me holding the cake, I was really happy, touched, and very grateful to them at that moment."
"No acting skills?"
"No way (angry)... By the way, you knew today was my birthday before, so did you prepare a gift?"
Being a little dissatisfied at being questioned, Mingnan, who was lying on the bed, opened his mouth and then typed a question with some expectation.
"Well, although I really want to say this, I actually only found out when Sana and the others told me, and the gift was also prepared temporarily... You shouldn't be angry, right?"
"..."
When she saw Chi Jingyuan's text message, Mingjing Nan was not disappointed at all. It seemed that she had expected it. Instead, she smiled softly and looked at the little penguin and hat placed beside the bedside.
After touching her body lightly, she replied with a smile:
