"Where are you?" came the familiar voice of my second brother on the phone.
"I'm busy, I have something to talk about."
"You think I don't know you have a day off today? What are you busy with? Forget it... Nuna's birthday is going to be in two days. Remember to call her and don't forget the gift."
"Do you even need to say this?"
"You are so arrogant now that you haven't seen anyone for several months. How do I know whether to remind you or not?"
Chi Jingxu on the phone made a weird sarcastic comment, and then got down to business without waiting for Chi Jingyuan to reply: "That's it, I had a phone call with Dad a few days ago and we talked about your schooling.
...You have been studying at Yonsei for several years. You are already a senior this year. You will graduate soon, right?"
"Um, it seems so."
Hearing this topic, Chi Jingyuan paused in his heart and responded in a muffled voice.
Not counting the year he took a break from school when he first debuted, he had already reached the year of graduation before he knew it...
How come it goes by so fast?
He didn't need to think about it to know what his second brother was going to say next.
"There are only a few months left in your senior year. Do you have any problems graduating by then... How many times have you been to school in the past few years? I guess you will definitely not be able to pass the attendance rate alone, right?"
"Do you still remember that the reason why your family allowed you to enter the entertainment industry and become an idol was because you were admitted to university. Although this diploma is actually useless... But if you can't graduate from university, I don't care, dad.
They want to save face, so you have to think about how they will react when the time comes."
Mingjing Nan leaned quietly behind Chi Jingyuan, listening to a somewhat unfamiliar voice on the phone. Although he had never heard this voice before, Chi Jingxu's appearance quickly came to mind.
She had met her boyfriend's brother at the police station and at the family concert, and was very impressed by him.
But now, listening to the tone of the conversation between their brothers, I always feel that the Chi Jingxu in my impression, who is unsmiling and very aura at first sight, does not seem to be as arrogant and unapproachable as he appears...
And...she secretly glanced at Chi Jingyuan, and it turned out that her seemingly omnipotent boyfriend also had a headache~
"I have been writing the thesis for a long time, and I have checked my credits. If nothing else happens, it should be..."
Chi Jingyuan's tone was obviously hesitant: "It shouldn't be a problem, right."
At the same time, he was also confused and a little anxious.
At the end of every year, Chi Jingyuan's biggest headache is academic matters. He is not a good student in the first place, and he is extremely busy with work. Every time he comes back from work, he gets a headache when he sees the textbooks.
It has been four years, but this year is the graduation year, and it is not as simple as before. Credits, papers, professional results, and all kinds of things are all put together.
Although it is not a big deal if you fail to graduate this year, if you pay attention next year and go to school more to make up for your attendance, you will actually be able to graduate successfully by then. Ji Kyung-won will still be able to get the title of 'Yonsei University Graduate'
, it’s nothing more than a year late.
YoonA-senpai has been studying at Dongguk University for several years. She is 4 years older than me, but she just graduated last year. She even took so many photos wearing her bachelor's uniform and looked like a top student. People who didn't know it thought she was a top student.
Which top student is here...
But... Although Chi Jingyuan wanted to pay tribute to his idol, he also knew that what his second brother said was right. It would be a bit embarrassing if he couldn't graduate this year. If others didn't tell him, his parents would definitely have objections, and they might really get involved by then.
He goes back to school.
It's a bit overwhelming just thinking about it.
"...I have contacted Professor Jin, and he said that he can accommodate the attendance issue and there will be no problem, but for papers and other exams, you have to rely on yourself..."
"Well...that's fine, don't worry."
Chi Jingyuan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and gave his second brother a thumbs up in his heart.
Even if his grades are average, at least he still has some cultural background. He is at least a lot better than those high school students. It shouldn't be a problem to make up for it at the last minute... Besides, Professor Jin is also responsible for the thesis.
Finally I don’t have to pay tribute to my idol...it’s really a pity when I think about it.
"You must take it to heart, this is not what I said, it is what dad said..."
Chi Jingxu gave a final warning, and after Chi Jingyuan patted his chest and assured him that there was no problem, he felt relieved. After casually asking Chi Jingyuan about his current situation, his tone changed and he entered the time to tease his younger brother as usual:
"By the way, I just realized...did you bring a girl home some time ago?"
Chi Jingyuan had just given a thumbs up to his second brother in his heart, but suddenly, when he heard Chi Jingxu's joking question, his heart froze as if it was a conditioned reflex.
Sure enough, he immediately felt that the hands around his waist suddenly tightened, making him breathless for a moment.
"It's been so long...how do you know?"
However, Chi Jingyuan remained calm and looked relieved that nothing had happened. His tone was calm and he asked curiously.
"Didn't I go on a business trip some time ago? I heard what the servant said after I returned home a few days ago. I didn't pay much attention to it at first..."
Chi Jingxu explained casually, and then he started to torture Chi Jingyuan with great interest and fun: "It doesn't matter if you play outside every day, this is the first time I've seen you bring a girl home.
,Why, Mr. Chi’s idol is tired and ready to retire and get married?”
"Stop using your disgusting assumptions there."
The second brother went too far. Even without looking back, Chi Jingyuan could feel Mingjing Nan's body becoming a little stiff. He couldn't help but cursed harshly and quickly explained: "There were too many people outside that day.
It’s convenient, just go to the cinema at home and watch a movie...and it’s not the kind of relationship you think, just a familiar friend.”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! On the outside, Chi Jingyuan is calm, but in his heart, Chi Jingyuan has scolded him countless times.
Yeah, Xiba, if I had known I wouldn’t have turned on the hands-free...
"Maybe...but, tsk tsk, your first love didn't even see you bring him home...Oh, no, I remembered, you licked your face and invited her over many times,
But they don’t want to, hahahahaha,”
It was obvious that he had caught his younger brother's sore leg again. Chi Jingxu's laughter on the phone seemed extremely wild.
"Axi...Chi Jingxu, why don't you die?".
"Hahahaha, don't be angry, it's not cute at all...Okay, okay, you can make up your mind, but remember to do it when I'm at home next time, so that I can open my eyes..."
Facing the second brother's provocation, Chi Jingyuan's breathing became a little heavy and he didn't want to respond to him at all: "Is there anything else?"
"Let me think about it...I heard that you bought a new property some time ago?"
"Well, I bought it in the first half of the year. What's wrong?"
"As expected of a big star, don't you have a lot of money and no place to spend it? My family has dozens of houses in the center of Seoul alone, let alone other districts. If you change one house every day, it won't be the same every month.
Are you sick? You have to pay for it yourself?"
"You are really right, there is just too much and there is no place to spend it... In addition to the ones that were invested in you, there is still a lot of money left from last year's share, so I have nothing to do with it..."
Chi Jingyuan replied in a bad tone. He felt that the body behind him seemed to soften a little. After a pause, he said casually: "Besides, the one I bought myself feels different from the one at home."
"What's different?"
Obviously he disagreed with Chi Jingyuan's words. The second brother said in a strange tone: "If you have too much money and no place to use it, I just took over my shares in JYP and sold them to you at a discount."
"I'm not interested. My idol is pretty good...and isn't it the same for everyone?"
"Well, it's up to you..."
He hadn't chatted with his brother for a long time. He felt very good after the phone call. The second brother did not deny Chi Jingyuan's statement. After a few final words, he lazily said goodbye: "Okay, I won't talk to you.
said……"
"Oh yes, there is one more thing."
When he was about to hang up the phone, he seemed to remember something again, and this time the second brother's tone became much more serious: "You should have seen the news, just the one two days ago... The wind direction in the peninsula has not been very good recently.
Okay, there may be big changes in the political arena, so please pay attention and keep a low profile."
Hearing the second brother's serious tone, Chi Jingyuan's expression became serious.
A major event occurred in the peninsula recently, which has had a profound impact on all walks of life.
In fact, there was some foreshadowing a long time ago, but it was only exposed a few days ago.
Ever since the news about "interference in politics" came out a few days ago, the situation on the peninsula has suddenly become weird. As more and more revelations come out, the upper class has become more and more turbulent, and the lower class citizens are also talking about it. Even the entertainment industry
The literary and art industry has been affected a lot and has obviously become more restrained in many aspects.
However, although the top management seemed to be in a rough situation, Chi Jingyuan was very open-minded and looked like he was just watching the excitement.
"I know...but I've always been very low-key..." He reached out and tapped the keyboard, first responded seriously, and then his tone became casual again: "And what does it have to do with me? I'm just a person.
Just an idol."
"It's okay if you understand... remember graduation! Failed~"
As the phone was hung up, the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became a little weird. Chi Jingyuan looked at it, while Mingjing Nan behind him didn't say anything. He still held him like that, but his mood was obviously because of what he just heard.
There have been some changes.
"It's Tzuyu..."
However, Chi Jingyuan didn't seem to feel the change in the atmosphere. Instead, he said frankly and directly: "Last month, or some time, we made an appointment to go see a movie together, and it was the "Train to Busan"."
"Um……"
Although he didn't look back, Najing Nan certainly knew that her boyfriend was explaining to her, so she arched her head and responded softly.
"But that day was a holiday, and there were too many people outside. It was not very convenient to find several places. I happened to have a private theater at home, so we came back and watched it at home..."
Chi Jingyuan briefly and comprehensively told what happened. He must not be secretive at this time.
And what he said was absolutely right. It was just a simple movie... except that the companion was Zhou Ziyu, and there was a young stolen kiss along the way.
"It's Ziyu..."
Mingjing Nan's face was blocked on Chi Jingyuan's back, and his voice was erratic and a little subtle.
Although Mingjing Nan was shocked and sad when he first heard Brother Chi say this, but after Chi Jingyuan explained it, he gradually worked hard to suppress the emotion... At least that's the case now.
.
And although we don't have much contact, you can tell something from this phone call... Chi Jingyuan's serious-looking brother seems not to be so serious when getting along with his family in private.
If it were anyone else, she would be a little unhappy and justifiably jealous, but when it comes to Zhou Ziyu... she always feels a little bit guilty.
It was as if she had taken away the other person's most precious thing... Even though she mustered up the courage to pursue her love openly, the other person actually had no ambiguous relationship with Chi Jingyuan.
However, there will still be a little bit of that feeling.
Chi Jingyuan paused, casually looked at his little girlfriend's expression, and then shrugged, with a helpless expression: "It's a very simple thing, my brother prefers to joke... Next time we have time, we will go back together.
trip."
"Um……"
Mingjing Nan nodded first, then leaned on Chi Jingyuan and said softly: "This place is actually quite good."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! If Chi Jingyuan said this before, she must be very happy, but now... there is always a feeling of being outranked.
"It's quite good. This is a property I bought myself... But at least I can recognize the door and be considered a guest."
"Okay~"
Mingjing Nan responded obediently, and then stopped talking.
She didn't know if she had let go of this matter in her heart, but she lay quietly on Chi Jingyuan's back, seeming to be thinking about something.
"Gen-chan what are you doing?"
After a while, Mingjing Nan's mood slowed down a bit, and he gradually became interested in listening to the constant sound of keyboards in his ears. He sat up from the sofa, leaned against Chi Jingyuan, and looked with his head.
The computer asked curiously: "What kind of lyrics is this...?"
"Didn't I mention it to you last time that I wanted to collaborate with you on a song?"
Chi Jingyuan nodded and turned his head to look at Mingjing Nan's profile.
"Is this the song?" Najing Nan's eyes lit up when he heard it. He stared at the broken words on the screen, full of expectation and seriousness.
Feeling the eagerness and joy of his little girlfriend next to him, Chi Jingyuan reached out and adjusted the angle where she was leaning, looked at the screen and said:
"Well, this is the song I told you before. The song is almost ready...but I've been a little busy recently and haven't had time to write the lyrics. And I don't want to fill in the lyrics of this song casually like ordinary Kpop.
I wanted to write it...to be more realistic and romantic, as a kind of commemoration...so there has been little progress recently, and I only have a few sentences until now."
Najing Nan looked at the screen without blinking, her mouth slightly opened: "Is this a new song written by Yuan-chan?"
"It's not a new one..."
Hearing this, Chi Jingyuan shook his head, raised his head and looked at the ceiling and recalled: "Actually, after the fireworks show ended that day, I sent you to the station, and I already had inspiration on the way back. At that time, I already had the general concept of the melody and song.
Appeared in my mind..."
"Even I have rarely encountered this kind of burst of inspiration in so many years, when my thoughts are so clear... I felt quite surprised myself, and then I thought about it..."
He chuckled, looked at Nai Minami's profile and lips close at hand, and tilted his head: "Maybe it's because you look really good in a yukata."
"..."
The simple joking words were like thunder and drums, making Mingjing Nan's heart roar. She glanced at the smiling face of her boyfriend beside her dimly, blinked, and then looked at the words she had just written on the computer in just a few seconds.
Line lyrics:
"Now I still think about the coastline I looked around that day."
"The words written on the beach, and... your back."
She stared blankly at these two lines of lyrics, and the images etched in her memory instantly emerged, and an uncontrollable emotion surged out of her heart. At this moment, she really wanted to hug her boyfriend and give him a sweet kiss.
But at the same time, I suddenly remembered the ‘movie’ just now, Zhou Ziyu, and many things.
My mood, which had been very good today, suddenly became complicated. Mingjing Nan suddenly became quiet, looking at the screen in front of him in a trance.
She didn't know how long it had been quiet, but Chi Jingyuan next to her had already started typing on the keyboard again. Then she sniffed slightly, pursed her lips, and her brows and eyes suddenly became serious and determined.
She buried her face on Chi Jingyuan's shoulder and shouted softly, her voice slightly muffled by Chi Jingyuan.
"Source-chan~"
"Huh? What's wrong?" Chi Jingyuan glanced at her and asked casually.
"Before, except for Sana, didn't I tell anyone else about you and me?"
