"Didi!

The alarm clock, which is usually rarely heard, rang out suddenly in the dark.

The figure lying on the bed was wrapped in the quilt and did not move.

But after a while, perhaps because the sound in her ears was too noisy, she rolled over, stretched out her hand from the bed, didn't even take off the blindfold on her face, groped directly on the bedside table with her hand, and pressed the alarm clock button.

The dark room was suddenly quiet.

"Hmm......"

She let out a lazy nasal sound in her nose, turned back comfortably, pulled the covers back on, and leaned back on the pillow to continue sleeping.

However, within a few seconds, she jerked off the bed.

She suddenly remembered that she would never set an alarm clock, and she set an alarm clock today because ...... Gradually, the dazed mind finally came to his senses.

"Oh yes, I'm going to China......"

A sleepy muttering suddenly sounded in a low voice.

In the darkness, she wore an eye patch, hung her head weakly, and put her hands in her hairline, supporting her sleepy head.

How could she have woken up so early with her usual character, if it weren't for work...... No, it's also for their fans.

As soon as she remembered the expectant messages on Weibo before, she reluctantly raised her head, dragged the blindfold off her face with her hand, rubbed her fluffy hair by the way, and turned around to turn on the lamp at the head of the bed.

With a soft "pop", the light lit up, and the hazy yellow light shone on her face that subconsciously squinted her eyes, and also illuminated the shallow smile at the corner of her mouth.

It's strange that sleepiness is still painfully invading her brain and body, but her mood has become extraordinarily relaxed, and even a little inexplicably happy.

After all, compared to the other members of the group, her fate with China is the most peculiar.

Xiaoyuan is the original Chinese leader in the group, but she is the first member to open SNS in China, and when she decided to open her first SNS account on a Chinese social platform, this idea came very inexplicably, to be honest, even she herself can't say the real reason.

I have to admit that she was indeed the first person in the group to have a lot of contact with their Chinese fans.

Perhaps it is because of this that she is full of anticipation for the group's first FM trip to China.

She really wanted to meet the lovely group of people who supported her, and only last night did she make up her mind to set an alarm clock and force herself to wake up early, put on her makeup, and adjust her work so that she could meet their joyful eyes later.

After getting up and turning on the ceiling light in the bedroom, she looked at the messy bed, took a deep breath, tried to open her eyes wide, blinked, and then suddenly remembered one more thing.

Yesterday, she clearly explained to her agent that she would bring someone to her house before 3 o'clock, and if she hadn't gotten up yet, she would drag her out of bed and put on makeup.

Is there a temporary delay?

She turned her head to look at the clock on the wall, and the minute hand had crept past three o'clock.

No matter.

She shook her head, lowered her head and picked up her slippers beside the bed, ready to go to the bathroom to wash up first, and when she was done, it was time for someone to arrive.

However, after she walked out of the steaming bathroom wearing a pink headband, she looked in the direction of the door, still no one had pressed the doorbell, and she couldn't help blinking strangely, and walked to the dresser in the bedroom while stepping on her slippers, picked up her phone, and dialed a number.

"Sorry you ...... call"

After hearing the prompt tone from the other end of the phone, she was stunned, took the phone in front of her and looked at it, thoughtfully called up the interface of Kakao Talk, and sent a message to the agent.

[Ernie, what are you doing now?]

After sending this message, she sat in front of the dresser and waited for a while, seeing that the status had not changed to "read", she opened a group chat again and sent a message in it to ask: [Isn't Min Jingoni going to China with us today?]

This message was sent, and there was no movement in the group chat.

"What's the situation?" she muttered.

Immediately after, she looked at herself in the mirror, still pursed her lips, put down her phone, and picked up the cosmetics on the dresser by herself and started to do it first.

When the company's team comes, she probably won't have time to put on makeup at home.

Although she could simply deal with it on the road, she didn't want to go to the airport in such a perfunctory state to face their fans.

……

"It's because I'm too vulnerable, I feel a little lost, looking for answers in the fleeting night and dawn. There are many difficulties in front of the crossroads, and the starlight is my only guide, please tell me where to go......"

Suddenly, the phone on the desktop rang.

Zheng Xiuyan, who was wiping hand cream, glanced at the caller ID, and couldn't help but smile softly on her face.

She slid the answer button with her fingertips, and while continuing to rub her hands, she said familiarly, "Hmm." Have you sorted it out over there? Min Jingoni hasn't come to pick me up yet, will we meet up at the airport later?"

"The ......"

A voice rang on her phone, but she was slightly stunned.

"Yoon-a, why are you?"

“……”

The other end of the phone was inexplicably quiet.

Jung so-yeon leaned down in confusion, leaned her ear closer, and asked at the same time, "What's wrong? Is the signal bad? Why is Taeyeon's phone on your side?"

“…… What to do?"

For a moment, she felt as if she vaguely heard the voice of another member, Kim Hyo-yeon.

“…… Why don't you let Xiaoxian come to me?"

It was Sunny's voice, and unlike usual, the girl's volume was very low at this time.

“…… No way. ”

This time it was Xu Xian's voice, very strange, her voice was also very low, as if they were all afraid of what she heard on the other end of the phone.

"What then?"

“……”

After a small crackling sound, a voice that Zheng Xiuyan was most familiar with broke through everyone's discussion.

"Alright, I'm the captain, so I'll do it. ”

On this side, Zheng Xiuyan, who heard this, subconsciously frowned.

She was very familiar with each other, and she heard an unusual meaning just from this sentence.

Kim Taeyeon, what are you doing?

“Jessica？”

Soon, Kim Tae-yeon's voice came from the phone.

Her tone was also very low, not like before, as if she was trying to suppress something, and even called Zheng Xiuyan's full name.

"Hmm. I'm here. Is something going on?Could it be that our trip has been cancelled?" asked Zheng Xiuyan as she picked up her phone and frowned.

The phone was quiet for a moment, and then a sentence came:

"It's not that our trip was cancelled, it's that yours was cancelled. ”

Zheng Xiuyan, who was holding her mobile phone, was stunned.

What does this mean?

Immediately after, she heard Kim Taeyeon on the other end of the phone continue in a very calm voice:

“Jessica…… You've been fired from the company. ”

In a flash.

Zheng Xiuyan, who heard the news, had no other superfluous reactions, she just seemed to have heard something wrong, and answered softly with her mobile phone:

"Huh?"
