"President Min, thank you very much for your kind invitation. Today's dinner was very nice, thank you." Zhou Jing stood in the lobby of the private club and said goodbye to Cui Xiuying's grandfather.
"President Zhou is very polite. You are a relative of Xiuying's child. Come and sit at home when you have time. We are all outsiders." The speaker was Xiuying's mother, Min Zhaoxi.
Relative? Haha, Zhou Jing glanced at the slightly embarrassed Cui Xiuying and felt funny in his heart, but he did not intend to expose it but smiled and said to Xiuying's father Cui Zhennan and Min Soxi:
"Uncle Cui, Aunt Min, there will be opportunities in the future."
"Okay, Xiuzhen, Xiuying, send our guests off for us, Executive Zhou. We'll see you later."
"See you later."
Cui Xiuzhen is Xiuying's sister and a famous musical actress. Today she met Zhou Jing for the first time. Before that, she was quite curious about this recently famous figure.
After meeting, Cui Xiuzhen was even more surprised. He was indeed a man who had been to the Blue House. Zhou Jing was obviously three years younger than her, but he did not fall behind in the face of her usually majestic grandfather.
He is neither humble nor arrogant and talks eloquently, but his eyes are particularly sharp under his spring-like appearance. Although sometimes he cannot understand what he is talking about, the aura of a superior person that he unconsciously reveals is indeed very attractive.
However, Cui Xiuzhen also saw some signs, that is, Zhou Jing and his sister were not as close as imagined. Although he was very polite to Xiuying on the surface, it was this politeness that made them alienated from each other.
"Zhou Jingxi, thank you for your advice on my grandpa's company this time. I hope you will take care of me in the future, please." Cui Xiuzhen once again expressed her gratitude to Zhou Jing before leaving.
There were dark clouds over the house some time ago, and she knew more about the inside story than Xiuying. Judging from the atmosphere at tonight's dinner, things had obviously turned around, and that was undoubtedly the result of the man in front of her.
"Cui Xiuzhen, xi, you're welcome, Xiuying is my relative, haha..." Zhou Jing narrowly blinked at Cui Xiuying next to him, which immediately made the other party blush.
"Ahem..." Xiuying coughed softly to cover up her embarrassment, then calmed down and said: "Oppa, Miane, Jinghao couldn't come today because he had something to do. Next time he has a chance to bring Douding with us.
Let’s get together, four of us.”
"Well, we'll make an appointment then." Zhou Jing smiled and nodded in agreement.
At this time, Jin Yulong had already driven the car over. Zhou Jing was about to get in the car, but as soon as he reached the door handle, he suddenly remembered something, so he turned around and walked to Cui Xiuying.
"Xiuying, do you have time now? I want to... talk to you alone."
"Mo? Oppa, what do you...mean?"
Cui Xiuying obviously had a misunderstanding. She thought Zhou Jing had bad intentions, and Cui Xiuzhen had similar thoughts, but unlike her sister, she was more entangled in her heart.
Although she thinks Xiuying's father, Zheng Jinghao, is quite nice and the two families are family friends, it is completely different to compare him with Zhou Jing.
With such a perfect brother-in-law, a very absurd scene appeared in Cui Xiuzhen's mind. The tall sister cuddled up next to Zhou Jing and looked like a happy little girl. Not to mention that the scene was not inconsistent at all.
Therefore, although Xiuying was thinking uneasily, Xiuzhen actually smiled strangely like an aunt. However, the situation was soon ruthlessly broken by Zhou Jing's words.
"Cui Xiuyingxi, please don't get me wrong. I just want to talk to you about Girls' Generation. We might as well talk about some things. What do you think?"
Zhou Jing's sudden honorific made the scene immediately cool down. Only then did Cui Xiuying realize that she had made a mistake. In shame, she almost wanted to refuse on the spot but...
"Okay, Ernie, you go back first, Zhou Jing and I will find a place to talk about something."
After saying that, Cui Xiuying quickly got into Zhou Jing's car, and Zhou Jing made an apologetic expression to Cui Xiuzhen and got in the car right after, leaving Cui Xiuzhen confused as to what the two of them were doing.
The atmosphere in the car was a bit depressing. Cui Xiuying stared out the window without saying a word. She knew very well why Zhou Jing wanted to talk to her alone. It was just about Jessica.
To be honest, this made Cui Xiuying very unhappy but there was nothing she could do about it. Who could make the situation better than others? She secretly glanced at Zhou Jing beside her and wanted to know what he was going to say later.
Intimidation? Or a silent beating, just like what he did to his grandfather at the dinner just now. Thinking of this, Cui Xiuying felt a strong sense of unwillingness in her heart.
Why is he so good to Jessica? Is it just because he is Xiujing's Ernie? With this thought, Cui Xiuying became more and more angry, but the man seemed to be in a trance and didn't say a word. It was really annoying.
At this time, Zhou Jing closed his eyes and recalled the details of Taeyeon's meeting in his office that night. The final result made Taeyeon very satisfied, but Zhou Jing smelled an unusual smell in the process.
Cui Xiuying and Pani didn't seem to be very willing. Zhou Jingshen knew that no matter how strong the fortress was, it would be breached from the inside first, so it was necessary to eliminate this unstable factor before the final showdown.
It's just that he didn't tell Taeyeon his true thoughts because he didn't want the team leader to bear the burden again. Taeyeon has been under too much pressure recently. Zhou Jing hopes to hear a cheerful aunt laugh instead of seeing a
Melancholy Sheep.
Still in the private room of Lantingxuan, Zhou Jing skillfully boiled water to make tea, while Cui Xiuying sat opposite and remained silent, just mechanically taking the teacup and drinking tea and waiting for Zhou Jing to speak first.
Seeing Xiuying like this, Zhou Jing couldn't bear it. He pressured Xiuying to this point before he could say anything, which showed that he really should make a certain decision.
So he poured tea for the other party again, smiled slightly, and then said in a calm tone: "Xiuying, what do you think of Xiuyan's matter? It's just the two of us today, and I hope you can talk openly and honestly."
Sure enough, this is the topic. Cui Xiuying took a sip of tea and asked Zhou Jing with a wry smile, "Does my opinion matter? Oppa Zhou Jing."

With a smile on her face, Xiuying was stunned after hearing this.
She stared at Zhou Jing closely, trying to see what the other party was planning, but Zhou Jing's clear eyes made her get nothing. After a long time, Xiuying suddenly laughed and said with some fun:
"If I say that I am very dissatisfied with Sika, or even agree with the company's practices to a certain extent, Oppa, what will you do?"
Cui Xiuying originally thought that Zhou Jing would become furious, but to his surprise, he was indifferent. He just lit a cigarette and waited quietly for Xiuying to finish what he said.
This made Xiuying feel like she was punched in the cotton wool, and it also made her realize that it was too childish to play tricks in front of this man.
"Okay, I admit that the company's actions will cause great harm to Girls' Generation no matter what the outcome is, and all the consequences will ultimately be borne by us, so I have no objection to Taeyeon." Xiuying sighed quietly.
said.
"But you are very unwilling to do so, aren't you?"
"Of course I'm not willing to give in. I believe you can definitely help Sika solve the brand problem, and JK Group's planning will be restarted, but what about us? Girls' Generation has been saved, but Sika's resources are also too good.
Bar."
Now that the words had been spoken, Cui Xiuying no longer hid it, and vented out the resentment that had been accumulated in her heart for a long time, while Zhou Jing just listened silently and did not express any opinions.
It's really nice to complain to your heart's content, but Xiuying felt uneasy next, secretly hating herself for being so popular. She said everything that should be said and shouldn't be said. What to do now, ugh...
"When the moon waxes, it loses; when it is full, it loses. It was my negligence, Xiuying, Miane."
"ah?"
Choi Kyung's sudden apology surprised Choi Soo-young, and his next words made Soo-young's eyes widen and instantly turned into an emoticon.
"Xiuyan did get too much. I don't deny that it was because of me. I thought that sharing benefits would make you feel balanced. Now it seems that I want to be simple. And I'm afraid Xiuying is not the only one who has the same idea. If things continue like this, you guys
There is no way nine people can go on together."
"Don't worry, I will renegotiate with Xiuyan and give you a satisfactory answer. As for..." Zhou Jing paused for a moment, but then made up his mind and promised,
"After the incident is over, Soo-yeon will be Soo-jeong's Unnie to me, not Jessica of Girls' Generation. So far, Girls' Generation...has nothing to do with me, how about it?"
Cui Xiuying was completely stunned when she heard this. She had no idea that Zhou Jing would choose to draw a clear line with SNSD in order to dispel her or other people's concerns.
I have to say that this is a good thing for Xiuying, otherwise he would always stand behind Jessica and put a lot of pressure on other members. Even if they are dissatisfied, everyone will not speak out easily. Over time, resentment will inevitably arise, and eventually.
..
But what good would it do to Zhou Jing? This was something Cui Xiuying couldn't figure out. Seeing that Zhou Jing was about to get up and leave, she hurriedly called him to stop him.
"Oppa, I don't understand why you are doing this. Is the integrity of girlhood important to you? I remember you are not a fan of ours."
Zhou Jing smiled faintly in the face of Cui Xiuying's question mark face, "Yes, I am indeed not a long-cherished wish, but I know it is not easy for you to reach the top, and it takes an instant for you to fall from the clouds."
"I don't want you to make mistakes because of your youthful impulsiveness, and I don't want to see you become the second Tara."
After saying that, Zhou Jing left the private room without looking back, while Cui Xiuying felt a little moved in her heart, and for no reason, she felt a little guilty about that figure from behind.
