Chapter 736 Don't Ignore Me
After leaving a word, Chi Jingyuan walked out of the box without looking back.
He was already in a very bad mood tonight, and he wasn't in the mood to talk to the girls from Twice... not to mention that he was furious when he saw Zhou Ziyu's frustrated little face.
Li Shengli followed and led the way, while Chi Jingyuan slowed down a little, and while following, he looked at the decorations on both sides with some curiosity.
When he got off the elevator, he looked at Lee Seung-ri and said with a smile, "Brother, your club is doing pretty well."
"Just doing it casually... and it can't be said to be mine, I just took a small stake in it."
Li Shengli smiled when he heard it, and waved his hand without any strangeness, instead he seemed very familiar: "Jingyuan, if you are free, you can come over and hang out. If you come, please call me... This place is very private, and no news will be leaked."
"There will be a chance." Chi Jingyuan smiled and nodded as a response, then thought for a moment and added, "Thank you for calling me just now."
Although Zhou Ziyu was a little angry that she couldn't tell the difference between the times and was making a fuss about such things, this anger was only between the two of them. No matter what, if she was bullied, Chi Jingyuan would of course support her. Besides, Minatozaki Sana was actually quite familiar with him. If something really happened to them, it would be really bad to think about.
As for Lim Nayeon...it's just a bonus.
So he was quite grateful for Li Shengli's kindness. Of course, Chi Jingyuan also saw that this guy wanted to get in touch with him, so he took the initiative to thank him.
"What's there to thank me for? We've known each other for so long, it's only natural."
Li Shengli waved his hands to indicate that it was nothing, and then he thought of what happened just now and added: "What Changzheng and Zheng Junying did was indeed a bit too much. If it was someone else, it would be fine, but if it was your friend Jingyuan, I definitely can't just sit back and watch."
His righteous tone and his eager expression made Chi Jingyuan almost think that the news he heard from Park Jae-hyun about this brother was just a random fabrication...
However, since the other party was so enthusiastic to help, Chi Jingyuan certainly would not expose him. He just smiled and nodded, as a response to what he said.
After walking out of the elevator, Li Shengli seemed to remember something and asked tentatively: "By the way, Jingyuan, you have a good relationship with Twice, the new girl group? When did you start dating? And you even have a girlfriend there!"
Lee Seung-ri is well versed in the art of building personal connections. Sometimes it is not just about making friends with the person himself, but also about building relationships with his relatives and friends, which will be more effective.
"We have worked together before and have a good relationship." Chi Jingyuan nodded and did not deny it. He knew that if he said this, it would at least reduce some unnecessary trouble for Chou Tzuyu and others on Lee Seung-ri's side.
But the latter question made him stunned, and he asked in surprise: "Girlfriend? Twice?"
Chi Jingyuan was a little confused. He just came here after breaking up with his girlfriend...
"That's what Sana Xi said just now..."
Seeing Chi Jingyuan's expression, Li Shengli reacted instantly, and briefly recounted what happened just now, and then laughed: "But it may be that he was scared just now, and he said this to increase credibility."
"Ah……"
Chi Jingyuan also smiled and shook his head. He could tell that Minatozaki Sana was talking about Mingjing Minami... They really haven't reached that kind of relationship yet, but Chi Jingyuan wouldn't blame her for saying anything. At that time, it was understandable that she would say anything to save herself, not to mention that from Minatozaki Sana's perspective, Chi Jingyuan and Mingjing Minami did have this trend.
“Although we haven’t reached that level yet, the relationship is indeed very good.”
Having arrived at the underground parking lot, Chi Jingyuan emphasized this sentence, and then pointed to the car parked over there without any intention of staying to continue chatting:
"Brother, I'm leaving first."
…………
After Ji Jingyuan left after saying a few words, the three members of Twcie in the box had different expressions. Lim Nayeon and Minatozaki Sana stared at the direction of the door for a while, and when they came to their senses, they looked at each other again, and then turned their gaze to Kim Changjung and Park Jae-hyun around them, pursed their lips, not knowing what to say.
Although Chi Jingyuan came to rescue a few people like a god, he left quickly without even saying hello or a word. Only the little girls were left here. They still didn't feel comfortable with the surrounding environment and were full of resentment in their hearts.
Zhou Ziyu was still staring blankly in the direction where Chi Jingyuan left. She could no longer hear the sobbing voice from before. There were only some wet marks of tears on her face. However, her big eyes had lost focus and looked a little confused as if she had not reacted yet.
At this time, Park Jae-hyun came over. He glanced at the three girls in front of him, then also looked at the direction of the door, and said, "Jingyuan, he may not be in a good mood tonight..."
As he said this, he looked at Lin Nayeon and the other two who were staring at him after their attention was drawn to him, and smiled gently: "But don't worry about it, it shouldn't be about you."
Park Jae-hyun knew Ji Jingyuan best. As soon as they met, he noticed that Ji Jingyuan was in a bad mood and it was obvious that something had happened to him.
Before anyone could say anything, Park Jae-hyun continued, "Don't worry, I'll take care of this matter later... By the way, Nayeon-xi, Sana-xi, and Tzuyu-xi, do you have any requirements for the outcome?"
The few people who had been mumbling were stunned for a moment. Lin Nayeon wiped the remaining tears from her eyes and asked in confusion, "What, what request?"
Park Jae-hyun pointed at Kim Chang-jung who was still unconscious on the ground, and Jung Joon-young and Im Se-yong who were pinned on the table: "These are the people who did something really outrageous tonight. What kind of lesson do you want them to learn?"
"..." It seemed that this was the first time that Lim Nayeon had dealt with this kind of problem. She hesitated for a long time and even exchanged glances with Minatozaki Sana as if they were exchanging opinions. Then she clenched her fists and waved them fiercely, leaning her head forward and asking tentatively, "Beat him up?"
"Ha ha……"
Park Jae-hyun couldn't help but laugh, but he didn't ask any more questions. He just nodded and said, "I understand... It's getting late now. Do you want to go back now? I'll arrange a car to take you there."
Lin Nayeon and Minatozaki Sana, who had wanted to escape from here for a long time, immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, Oppa."
But Zhou Ziyu was still a little dazed.
"But...Oppa..."
Just when Park Jae-hyun arranged for someone to send Twice members out, Lim Na-yeon seemed to remember something, turned around to look at Lim Se-yeon over there, hesitated for a moment, and whispered to Park Jae-hyun: "Oppa, Se-yeon oppa didn't do anything, he just..."
She pursed her lips and didn't finish, but Park Jae-hyun nodded in understanding: ""
"Well, I see."
Lin Nayeon breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. She took one last look at Lim Seong-yeon, then took the initiative to pull Zhou Tzuyu, who was still motionless, and prepared to go out.
Just as they were about to leave, Lee Seung-ri, who had just followed Chi Jingyuan, opened the door and walked in. After taking a quick glance, he roughly understood the current situation, nodded slightly to Park Jae-hyun, and then smiled at Lin Nayeon and the other two: "Are you ready to go back? Do you want me to take you there?"
"No need, senior. Everything has been arranged with Hyun Oppa." Minatozaki Sana forced a smile and immediately declined.
In her heart, this senior was not a good person either.
"Then I'll take you to the parking lot."
Li Shengli didn't care. He walked out again just a few seconds after he came in, leading the way.
No one spoke along the way. After walking for a while, they came out of the elevator. Minatozaki Sana seemed to remember something. She looked at Li Shengli and asked in a low voice: "Senior...did you tell Jingyuan Oppa?"
Although Chi Jingyuan's sudden arrival made several people feel relieved, they still don't know how this oppa knew that they were being bullied here. After thinking for a long time, the only thing they could think of was Lee Seungri, whose attitude inexplicably changed and who spoke up for them.
"Inside."
Li Shengli nodded: "Because I have a good relationship with Jingyuanxi, after you said that you are his kinsman, I wanted to help you, but you also saw that Changzheng didn't give me face... Then I came out and talked to Jingyuan."
As he spoke, he glanced at Zhou Ziyu, squinting his eyes and smiling: "But Ziyuxi and Jingyuan have a really good relationship. When I first told him on the phone that his friend had encountered problems here, he didn't care much... I thought he was too lazy to care, but then when I mentioned your name, he directly asked me where I was..."
Li Shengli's tone was somewhat friendly. He looked at the short-faced girl who seemed dull but was listening attentively: "When I called Jingyuan, he seemed to be in JB District, which is far away from us... But he drove over as soon as he hung up the phone."
Hearing this, Nayeon Lim and Sana Minatozaki both looked at Chou Tzuyu in the middle with puzzled expressions. After hearing what Lee Seungri said, Chou Tzuyu's lips trembled and she stammered twice, sniffed, but lowered her head and said nothing.
Park Jae-hyun arranged for a driver to take them back in a Mercedes business car. After thanking Lee Seung-ri, the three of them got in the car and prepared to return to the dormitory.
After asking for the address, the driver drove like a robot. After getting in the car, Lin Nayeon and the other two did not say a word, and the entire car fell into a complicated silence.
Lim Nayeon, who was sitting on the left, was looking at the street scene outside the left window, while Minatozaki Sana, who was sitting on the right, was looking at the street scene on the right. The colorful fluorescent lights on both sides composed a series of colorful pantomimes on their quiet faces.
Only Zhou Ziyu sat in the middle, looking at her hands in a daze.
The impact of what happened tonight was too profound. Even though they were safely in the car and ready to go home, the aftereffects still lingered strongly in their hearts and required some time to digest.
They have attended this kind of dinner to introduce contacts more than once or twice. Before, it was just ordinary social interaction. They had encountered some despicable people, but none of them were as blatant as Jin Changzheng today.
The obviously strong invitation with bad intentions from the other party just now really scared Lin Nayeon and the others. Even if they brought up the company and Chi Jingyuan at that time, it was of no use at all, which was like calling out to the sky but getting no response.
At that time, Lin Nayeon was a little desperate. She was as scared as a frightened rabbit and didn't dare to say a word. She was already extremely insecure, and she seemed even more at a loss when encountering such a thing.
The same goes for Minatozaki Sana, she was filled with panic and fear but didn't know how to express it... She hadn't felt this way for a long time since her debut.
Just when several people were most frightened, Chi Jingyuan, who had just been despised by Jin Changzheng, suddenly appeared. With a ruthless and violent attitude that they had never seen before, he slammed the arrogant face of that disgusting man, solved the problem in a very short time, and then left quickly.
The reversal was really too fast. Although everything before was still vivid in their minds, even now, they still felt like they were in a dream.
However, the focus of some people's thoughts has shifted from Kim Chang-jung's affairs to Chi Jingyuan... Like Lim Nayeon, she looked out the window with unfocused pupils, and the scene of Chi Jingyuan squatting down and talking to Kim Chang-jung just now kept repeating in front of her eyes uncontrollably, as if she was watching her favorite TV series, and every word in every line emerged extremely clearly.
“Tzuyu…”
There was no telling how long the silence lasted. Lin Nayeon withdrew her gaze from the window and turned to look at Chou Tzuyu. She pursed her lips and stared at the youngest member who was not sure what she was thinking. After hesitating for a few seconds, she called out softly.
"..." Zhou Ziyu was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses and looked at his elder sister, and responded dully: "Ah?"
"Did... Jingyuan, did Oppa really tell you... told you that, that what?" Lin Nayeon's voice was a little stuttering and she didn't speak very fluently, but Zhou Tzuyu and Minatozaki Sana immediately understood what she meant.
She was seriously saying something like: "If you encounter someone bullying, just call him."
"Um……"
Zhou Ziyu, who understood the meaning, nodded slightly and responded silently, then turned her head and looked down at her feet. Her dark eyes were a little confused, as if she was lost in memories.
Upon hearing this, Lim Nayeon and Minatozaki Sana looked at each other, as if they both saw a hint of surprise and envy in their eyes.
In this mixed entertainment industry, one encounters all kinds of people and things every day in the music industry. It is filled with all kinds of oppression and injustice. As idols and artists, they suffer from grievances and oppression one after another.
For them, being able to have someone who tells you "If you see someone bullying you, just call him" to take care of you is such an enviable and even jealous thing...
Just when the two were feeling mixed emotions and their thoughts were drifting away, they were suddenly brought back to their senses by a burst of crying beside them. Lim Nayeon and Minatozaki Sana quickly looked towards the center.
Zhou Ziyu, who had been in a daze since Chi Jingyuan left, suddenly buried her head, covered her face with her hands and burst into tears. Her shoulders kept shaking, and her tears dripped through the gaps between her fingers onto her clothes like a burst dam, leaving a layer of wet marks in a short time.
But she didn't hear a thing. Her whole body was hunched over like a curled up bird. She cried and trembled, and kept muttering in Chinese that they couldn't understand in an extremely sad and aggrieved tone.
"He doesn't care about me anymore..."
………………
After leaving Lee Seung-ri's club, Ji Jingyuan drove aimlessly on the roads of Seoul again. He was the same as before. Although he vented some of his accumulated emotions after leaving, he still didn't know where to go.
But anyway, I just don’t really want to go back to the dormitory.
I don't know how long I drove around, but when Ji Jingyuan looked up, he found that he had actually driven to the old building of SM company Apgujeong.
He looked at the building not far away that was already full of traces of time, but the car slowly slowed down and stopped on the side of the road.
Chi Jingyuan has lived and worked in this old building for several years. It can be said that most of the idol's career was spent here, leaving behind many extremely deep and unforgettable memories... But after the idol and the senior management moved to the new building, this building has become a place for trainees to practice dancing.
But now that I'm here...
Chi Jingyuan found a place to park the car, put on his disguise, got out of the car, and walked straight to the north, which was the riverside.
One good thing about the old building is that it is very close to the river... and a lot of things have happened here, and it has some very special memories for Chi Jingyuan and Bae Zhuxuan who just separated.
Standing beside the fence of Yanjiang Avenue, Chi Jingyuan stood there quietly, looking into the distance at the inky black river surface and the brilliant and beautiful Shengshui Bridge decorated with lights in the distance.
The dim moonlight was almost invisible, and it penetrated the floating mist on the floating water surface, leaving stubborn silver shadows, which made people feel that the atmosphere was even more depressing. Meanwhile, the brilliant lights on the bridge in the distance were wantonly flaunting their own greatness, illuminating the surrounding water waves like daylight.
But the night was silent, and the river was silent too, leaving only the bridge there making noise.
Chi Jingyuan, who had not been here for a long time, looked at the familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar scenery. The anxiety in his heart seemed to be taken away a little by the night breeze, and his depressed mood seemed to have calmed down a lot.
At the same time, he couldn't help but recall many things from the past.
He thought of his first love, the woman and memories that had once touched his heart, now resurfaced in his mind, but he had lost the excitement and resentment he had at that time. Now he thought of it very frankly, and even remembered some interesting things he had experienced with her. He couldn't help but smile as he thought about it carefully.
He also remembered how he had forgotten the exact number of girls he had dated and been close to in high school after that, and how he had slowly grown from being young and naive to being able to handle things with ease. The growth experiences that he had never cared about before now appeared in scenes one after another, and sometimes when he saw his former self, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but cover his face with shame.
Then there are some people I met after becoming an idol, Son Na Eun, Jung Soo Jung...
Finally, Bae Joo-hyun's shadow appeared in front of him, from the beginning at the door of the old SM building, to the various encounters and experiences afterwards, to the later "Friday Couple", the official relationship, and the back view when he left today... Speaking of it, the important turning point in their relationship seemed to have happened where he is now.
Chi Jingyuan glanced around and determined based on his memory... it was on the stool about ten meters away on the left.
Unconsciously, so much time has passed...
By the way, his once favorite Psyduck hat seems to still be with Bae Joo-hyun. I wonder if the little duck’s treatment will suddenly drop after losing the face and care of its original owner.
He smiled softly, as if he remembered something...
And when the shadow of the young lady slowly disappeared from his sight, Chi Jingyuan suddenly felt an impulse in his heart. A melody, a rhythm, and an emotion were fiercely brewing in his mind.
This feeling was not unfamiliar to Chi Jingyuan. He knew that this was the inspiration for creation, but this time it seemed to be particularly strong, as if it was gushing out.
But Chi Jingyuan did not leave immediately. Instead, he stood there, gazing quietly into the distance as if he was still thinking about something. It was unknown how long it had passed, and he finally came to his senses when there seemed to be fewer pedestrians around him.
Taking out his cell phone to check the time, Chi Jingyuan let out a long sigh as if saying goodbye to Jiang Mian, who had been with him for a long time, then turned around and walked away.
Walking with the wind, inexplicably elegant.
No matter how much he missed the old building, memories are just memories. He drove back to the new SM building without hesitation and walked into his own music room.
In front of the device, Chi Jingyuan first sat quietly for a while, closed his eyes and recalled the inspiration and various messy thoughts just now, then he opened his eyes, took out his mobile phone, turned it to silent mode, and turned it upside down beside him, and typed a paragraph on the keyboard with a focused look:
"Our meeting has become an unforgettable memory."
"It's a good ending... that's enough."
…………
"Well……"
Chi Jingyuan, who had been sitting in front of the computer for who knows how long, stood up and stretched with great enjoyment. At the same time, he looked at the song that had been made on the screen in front of him with a smug smile, feeling a sense of accomplishment.
After stretching, he picked up his phone to check the time, but as soon as he opened it, he saw dozens of missed call notifications. Chi Jingyuan was a little surprised and took a closer look, and found that all these dozens of calls were from Zhou Ziyu.
He paused, and his comfortable posture quietly faded away. After sitting there in silence for a few seconds, he dialed her back.
The phone rang for less than a second before it was answered, which seemed to prove that the person on the other end had been staring at the phone and waiting. After Chi Jingyuan answered the phone, he didn't wait and asked directly, "Why are you calling so many times? What's the emergency?"
Then, he heard a choking voice, a hoarse crying voice, and a trembling and pleading tone coming from the phone:
"You, please don't ignore me..."
