"Of course, Sister Jiayi, Brother Zhou Jing also calls me Xiaoxian."
"Well, actually I don't quite understand why Tiffany insists on Zhou Jing to forgive her? It's been so long, so it's logically unnecessary."
Xu Xian, who was touching up makeup in front of the sink, heard this question and his hands trembled, and the lipstick was a little crooked. When Yan Jia saw this, he hurriedly took out a cotton pad from his bag and handed it to Xu Xian.
"Thanks."
Xu Xian took the cotton pad, dipped it in some water and wiped off the crooked lipstick in the mirror, while thinking about how to answer Yan Jiayi, but thinking about her thoughts drifted back to the waiting room of the Pengcheng fan meeting.
"I want to sincerely apologize to Zhou Jingxi. It may be a little late but I should do it. Please."
Pani bit her lip and looked at Jessica firmly. The room immediately fell into silence. Everyone turned their attention to Pani, feeling that Pani today seemed very different from usual.
Jessica was also surprised by Pani's attitude, so she was stunned for a moment before patting Pani's arm and slowly said:
"No, if he had a grudge against you, he wouldn't have suggested that I propose to the company that you replace Xiujing and me to develop the American market."
"Yes, yes, Oppa is not a stingy man," Taeyeon quickly agreed after coming back to her senses.
As a result, before she finished speaking, there was a cold snort in the corner. It was obvious that someone disagreed with Jessica and Taeyeon's words. Everyone looked at the corner in surprise and found that it was Lin Yoona who had been silent all this time.
Why, this second maknae is going to rebel, and she actually dares to humiliate the eldest sister and the second sister. Although Yoona will be a little shy in front of the unnies on a daily basis, it is rare to see her acting like this.
So Cui Xiuying winked at Quan Yuli, gesturing to clean up Yun who committed suicide together, but Yuli showed complete indifference, which made Xiuying very confused.
Yoona, on the other hand, uncharacteristically walked directly in front of Pani, Jessica and Taeyeon. Only then did everyone notice that her deer eyes were slightly red, and there seemed to be tears flashing, and her pretty face was frosty.
There was a hint of anger.
"Onies, Oppa Zhou Kyung is certainly not stingy, but don't you think that the entire Girls' Generation owes him an apology? And it's not just Panioni."
"this"
Everyone was speechless for a moment, and immediately understood what Lin Yuner was referring to. They thought that when they were young, they held a meeting and voted to block Zhou Jing. Although the matter was settled in the end, and even the sponsor Yuli had apologized to Zhou Jing in person, but what about the others?
?
Could it be that everyone just laughed and fooled around without mentioning anything? In Yoona's opinion, a face-to-face apology is essential, and it's best to treat him to a meal together. No wonder Zhou Kyung is ready to draw a clear line with Girls' Generation.
,really.
"Yoona." Kim Taeyeon opened her mouth to explain a few words but was unable to refute. The others lowered their heads involuntarily. Only Seo Hyun Shi Ran came to Lin Yoona's side.
"Yoona Unnie is right, Sika Unnie, the nine of us Girls' Generation are one, and you are not just Doudin's Unnie."
Jessica was stunned immediately. Of course she knew what the maknae meant. Her stance on this matter should be that of Jessica from Girls' Generation, not Jung Soo-yeon, Zhou Kyung's sister-in-law.
So even though she, Yoona and Sunny clearly expressed their opposition at that time, as long as it is Girls' Generation's fault, we must shoulder it together. This is called group spirit.
In this case, no one could stand by and watch what happened to Pani. Xu Xian gently picked up the cell phone held by Pani, and then silently entered Zhou Jing's cell phone number under Pani's surprised gaze.
I don’t know since when, Xu Xian has memorized these numbers by heart.
"Xiaoxian, Xiaoxian, are you okay?"
Yan Jiayi's shouts instantly pulled Xu Xian's thoughts back. He turned around and saw Yan Jiayi showing a concerned look. Xu Xian smiled and said lightly:
"Sister Jiayi, I'm fine. I was just thinking about the question you asked me."
"Oh, I'm just asking casually, don't take it too seriously."
"No, this is very important. Sister Jiayi, didn't you ask Sister Pani why she must get Brother Zhou Jing's forgiveness?"
"Um"
"He deserves that."
——
Zhou Jing held the thank-you note in his hand and stared at Pani closely without saying anything for a long time. Pani unconsciously lowered her head because she couldn't bear his gaze, and for a moment, the sound of a needle dropping could be heard in the private room.
There was no way, why was Pani's move so unexpected to Zhou Jing? After all, he knew very well that among the nine girls' generation people, in terms of stinginess, the one in front of him was definitely the one in front of him.
This is related to Pani's family background and experience. Zhou Jing learned these things from Shirley. Shirley used to live in the same dormitory with Pani when she was a child, so she knew her very well.
But here comes the problem, Zhou Jing doesn't want to see why Pani goes to eat again to fill up her belly, she has nothing to do.
In fact, there is a reason. In the past, the two people who had objections to Jessica in Girls' Generation were Choi Soo-young and Tiffany.
Since Zhou Jing wants to help Jessica solve the problem, he must understand the situation in advance. As the saying goes, knowing yourself and the enemy will never lead to a defeat. Only in this way can a balance point be found through the interests of the other party.
However, Zhou Jing was very surprised after hearing Shirley's introduction. At the same time, it also answered the question in his mind. Obviously Pani and Jessica are the only Americans in the group. Logically speaking, they should hug each other for warmth. How could this happen?
.
The story begins when Pani was 13 years old. She and Jessica were born in San Francisco on the other side of the ocean. She was the third eldest child in the family, with an older brother and older sister.
Originally, the family lived a relatively happy life, but when she was 13 years old, her mother died of cancer. From then on, Pani's life was turned upside down.
Her father gradually became addicted to various side projects to make quick money, and even became addicted to gambling. As you can imagine, huge debts suddenly fell on the entire family, and Pani's nightmare began.
Perhaps it was because her father often disappeared, so the debt collectors kept harassing and threatening the Pani brothers and sisters, even though she was just a young trainee at SM Entertainment at that time.
It can be said that during that period, Pani spent every day in fear. Although he made money after his debut, in order to pay off his father's debts and pay for his brother's tuition, Pani never spent money randomly and even left a bag.
I'm reluctant to buy it, and would rather save it just to pay for my brother's tuition.
The most hateful thing is that despite this, her father still does not want to repent, but intensifies his behavior, which makes Pani have to cut the knot quickly, because she understands that if things go on like this, it will have a fatal impact on her girlhood.
That's why she resolutely broke up with her father three years ago. The trouble was over, but the stingy habit has been continued by Pani to this day. It is estimated that she will not be able to change it for a long time in the future.
The story that happened to Pani made Zhou Jing sigh. No wonder, in the eyes of outsiders, she and Jessica should both be wealthy daughters from a beautiful country, but little did they know that they are the same person but have different fates.
On the other hand, Jessica's family is well off. Her parents bought a mansion in Seoul for her to live in when she was a trainee. After her debut, she became the top 3 most popular member of the group.
Forget it, later on, Jessica started to create her own brand, and the company also wanted to promote JK Group to enter the North American market. It would be a damn thing if Pani didn't have any objections to it.
It is precisely because of the above reasons that Zhou Jing thought over and over again before suggesting Jessica give up the JK group plan. Of course, Pani's factor was only one of them. He told Jessica that you can't have your cake and eat it too.
Don't be too ambitious. Only by concentrating and insisting on doing one thing can you do it best. Since Pani's dream is to develop in North America, there is no harm in leaving it to her.
Facts have proved that Zhou Jing's suggestion was correct, and a balance was once again formed within Girls' Generation, but he never expected that Pani would do such a thing in order to apologize. To be honest, he finally relented.
Zhou Jing believed that Pani had indeed made an unintentional mistake back then. After all, she was just a young girl who had just grown up at that time, and Zhou Jing just couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart.
But killing people can only be done with a nod, and Pani has already done this. If he doesn't hold on to it anymore, it will become an obsession.
So Zhou Jing took a deep breath and handed the thank you letter back to Pani. Seeing this, Pani hurriedly looked up and found that the cold look on the other person's face had long since disappeared, replaced by a soft gaze.
"Huang Meiyingxi, although you look good when you smile, please don't laugh randomly in the future, okay?"
"Gui, I will definitely."
Pani was overjoyed in her heart, but when she was halfway through her words, she suddenly realized that Zhou Jing's name for her had quietly changed. Wait, Sunny seemed to still have resentment for this.
That is, Zhou Jing will never call anyone close to him by his stage name. This also means that
Crescent smiling eyes appeared again, but the words Pani blurted out next caused three black lines to flash across Zhou Jing's forehead.
