Chapter 184 Sensitive Summer Glitz (10,000 Words to Save the Festival)
This meal is actually a little interesting, Jin Zhongming ordered sixteen dishes in a row, and it was ordered in accordance with the regulations of four cold, eight hot and four soups. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ info Eight girls arrived, I guess I just think that the other party really ordered so much, I'm afraid that in the end it will really be cheap Baker and tofu.
However, the chef in the private room who came to inquire about the specific taste frequently looked at Kim Jong-ming, and this also proved from the side that this restaurant is probably indeed very good, at least not the kind of 'Korean-style Chinese restaurant' that only sells fried noodles and sweet and sour pork...... And sure enough, when the dishes were served one by one, the excellent cooking level immediately conquered Kim Jong-ming.
"Don't you need to order a few bottles of wine?" Looking at Jin Zhongming, who was eating very comfortably, the first person to ask this question was actually busy.
"Feeling...... Wood didn't like to drink until he was socializing these years. Sika replied after a moment's reflection. "I often have barbecue or hot pot at night, and I have a little drink at night. β
"How boring is that?" said Parney, the first to be upset.
"Drinking alcohol is more important than eating food, and that's the essence of Korean hospitality. Sunny also seemed a little upset.
"It's okay to toast you with a few glasses of wine. Yuna's attitude was also a bit unexpected.
"Koreans still have to drink alcohol when they eat......" Hyoyeon's reaction naturally goes without saying.
"White or beer?" Before Sika could face the black, Jin Zhongming suddenly put down his chopsticks and took the initiative to agree.
"White!"
"How boring is the beer?"
"That's white. β
"It's okay to drink a little, and it's okay tomorrow. β
A few people gossiped, and it really felt like they had regained the demeanor of the Boom Party.
"Waiter. Jin Zhongming couldn't help shouting, and the voice immediately stopped, and then, the waiter standing at the door of the private room came in response.
"Except for this one to drive. Kim Jong Ming pointed to Sika and preached to the waiter. "The rest of the people come to a bottle of Moutai, the kind of ...... at 53 degrees"
The waiter looked at the crowd in the private room, and stopped talking, but finally turned back to get the wine without saying a word.
"What is this?" Sunny was probably the only one who wasn't scared and white-faced, and she was actually even smiling. "53 degrees, you think I'm going to be scared of this?"
"Nothing. Admiralty responded with a clear answer. "I've always admired Miss Lee Soon-gyu's drinking, and I didn't expect a bottle of wine to scare you...... It's gags other people's mouths. β
"I feel like you've changed a lot. Yun'a sighed faintly. "In the past, you liked to be lively, and you were never afraid to make trouble with us when you were eating......"
"How can a child not like to be lively?" asked Jin Zhongming calmly, while unscrewing a bottle of liquor and filling himself with a glass.
"And now?" Yun'er also unceremoniously straightened the upside-down cup, and then let the waiter pour herself a glass. "Why don't you like it now?"
Kim Jong Ming paused for a moment, and did not answer this question directly, but stared at the figures of the two wine delivery attendants one by one, Sunny and Hyoyeon naturally needless to say, both of them directly unscrewed the wine bottle and filled it for themselves, while Seo Hyun chose to let go of the cup like Yuna and let the waiter help pour a glass, as for Taeyeon and Yoo-ri, the two had no intention of moving at all.
"Bring me some brandy. When it was Pani's turn, she asked for a change of wine.
"See, no. Jin Zhongming pouted in front of him. "No one is born to drink, at least when I first met you, you didn't know how to drink, but now everyone's situation is very different, some people drink well and like to let go, some people drink well but don't want to drink, some people don't drink well but don't want to drink, some people don't drink well and still can, and some people don't drink well but have self-knowledge...... There are even people who order brandy in a Chinese restaurant, and I don't know if it's a nightclub...... So Yun'er, the question you asked is meaningless at all, people's energy is different in different environments, and it is natural that there will be changes...... I've been at home for a long time over the years, and although it's not necessarily that I don't like the excitement, I really just like the excitement in the sun. This...... Isn't that a normal phenomenon?"
Yuna didn't reply, but lowered her head and took a sip of 53 degrees, and then immediately choked and jumped.
Jin Zhongming held back a smile and did not look at the other party's embarrassment, but continued to bow his head and eat his own food.
However, no matter what, the wine table is a wine table after all, and the wine is indeed wine, and half a glass of 53-degree liquor is enough to make most people who are not good at drinking feel fluctuating, and once people feel fluctuating, many things become casual. What's more, the vast majority of people at this table are already very casual with each other.
Therefore, the wine table finally became presumptuous.
Everyone began to tell some stories, began to tease each other, began to lament some of the naivety of their youth, and began to dislike each other for talking about the naivety of their youth.
And slowly, the presumptuousness on the wine table finally spread to the entire private room with the expansion of body movements, and the atmosphere completely became 'lively'.
In other words, someone once popularized science, saying that if Girls' Generation and FX go to the TV station together, then when they come back, except for Kim Hee-cheol, the members of the boy group of S.M company will generally choose to evacuate early, because these two groups can overturn the roof if they get together in a private room to eat!
But why do you say that? There is no other, it is really because some of these people have too much of a detached personality! Some people drink and make fists and have no image; some people talk and foam at the mouth; and some people even use their hands and feet to act in a hooligan style......
"Where are you touching me?" Sunny was suddenly grabbed by Sika's arm in public.
"I didn't ...... I didn't touch anything...... "Sunny has always felt a little scared at Sika since he was beaten up in Japan.
"She thought you had drunk too much, too. Jin Zhongming leaned in next to Sika's ear and added fuel and vinegar. "So I wanted to take advantage of it, but I forgot that you didn't drink at all today. If you think about it this way, you don't know what she did after you drink too much......"
"Beat her up. Xiao Yuan coaxed beside him. "In the future, she will go to the point of no return, and every day she only knows that she will rely on her own alcohol to pour those juniors, and if she continues like this, it will be too late to go to prison one day. β
"Hey, don't hit people, from a better point of view, new CP, new CP!" After whispering, Jin Zhongming joined the ranks of coaxing again. "Dog Egg and Mao Mao, Dog Mao CP!"
"So Sunny are you underwhelmed?" The sober Sika ignored the two of them at all, and just continued to wrestle each other's wrists and scold. "I put up with it in front of the camera, but I was so ...... in private"
"I really didn't mean to, I just wanted to slap you on the thigh......" Sunny wanted to cry without tears, and even forgot to ask Kim Jong Ming what the new word was.
"Taeyeon came back one night and cried like a rabbit when he was in the Black Sea...... on the other side, Pani was also holding his brandy and was talking exaggeratedly to Yuli.
"Why do you want to use a rabbit as an analogy?" Before Yu Li could react, Xu Xian, who was caught in the middle, asked curiously first.
"Because the eyes are red!" replied not Pani, but Yuna, who was pouring herself a second glass of wine. "Is that what you mean, Ernie?"
"Yuna is so smart!" Pani quickly put down his cup and applauded.
"Yuna is really ...... this time It's really smart. Yuli couldn't help but praise Yun'er. "I thought I was describing Taeyeon as a pitiful rabbit who doesn't care......"
"How smart am I?" Yun'er lowered her head and took a sip of wine again, don't you say, although this mellow liquor is not as pleasant to drink as soju, it is also so fragrant that people can't control themselves, which is another kind of enjoyment entirely. "Because at that time, I used to cry with red eyes, and then I was laughed at like a rabbit. β
"At that time, Ernie and you and Taeyeon Oni were truly amazing. Xu Xian couldn't help but interject and comment. "If it weren't for the two of you at that time, Girlhood might have been forgotten. β
"I can't forget it. Yuna sighed with a big grin. "Whether it's a company or someone, they won't let us disappear so inexplicably......"
"Whatever you say. Yu Li also sighed a little. "It's not okay to be unconvinced by the two of you during that time, one is being looked down upon in the crew, and the other is watching the screen full of swear words on the radio every day...... Two people carry it for nine people, it's really amazing, and if you should praise it, you have to praise it!"
"If I only had white eyes, I wouldn't have cried. Yoona took half a sentence casually, but did not continue, but instinctively looked at the protagonist of the story, Taeyeon, her idea was very simple, if she would not cry like that because of her white eyes at that time, Taeyeon would not cry like a rabbit because of the swear words on the screen...... Could it be that she had encountered something similar to herself, but why hadn't she heard the other person say it?
However, Taeyeon, as the protagonist of the story, sat there quietly at the moment, neither participating in the fights nor the high-minded discussions, just helplessly scanning the people on the table, and from time to time lingering on someone, as if she wanted to say something, but there was a feeling of timidity and uneasiness.
The smart Yuna instantly understood, and sure enough, it was so.
"In fact, if you think about it carefully, the things of the past can be said here as a drink, and the current things can't be ridiculed as jokes in the future. At this moment, Kim Jong Ming suddenly raised his voice and inserted this topic, because he felt that he could take the opportunity to play it. "While you're all sane, I'm going to ask you something...... How did I hear that you've been in a bit of a mood with each other lately?"
The private room suddenly fell silent, Sika stopped beating people, Sunny stopped begging for mercy, Hyo-yeon stopped drinking, and a large group of people over there no longer remembered the bittersweet thoughts.
And among them, the first one to react and stare at Kim Jong Ming was Taeyeon, from her slightly excited expression, it can be seen that although she, the captain, is usually soft and collapsed, but she still has a sense of responsibility at the critical moment, and it is estimated that she also wants to talk about this matter. But obviously, she doesn't have the momentum of Jin Zhongming who can calm everyone down without slapping the table or formally holding an internal meeting, so she is looking forward to the other party's current mentions.
"It's not as serious as you think. Seeing that Yuri and Yuna were a little embarrassed, Pani immediately smiled and raised her hand in reply. "Yuna and Yori have been messing with each other for many years, and from before their debut to now, they haven't seen anyone really do what to whom...... Before, the main psychological pressure was too much for a period of time, and the statement of disbanding in five years made everyone a little angry, am I right?"
Yoona and Yori remained silent, but nodded their heads.
"That's good. Jin Zhongming responded casually.
Actually, Kim Jong Ming agrees with Pani's statement, Yuna and Yoo Li have been a little wrong since they started fighting for the faΓ§ade before their debut, and then they have pimples until now, ......which is a fact! It's already a clichΓ©. So I'm afraid it's really after entering the fifth year of debut a while ago, everyone is at a loss and nervous about the future, and the allocation of resources is a little urgent and serious, which re-reveals the contradiction, and now ...... Isn't there no longer this shackle spell?
"Oppa, thank you for your concern. It was rare for Yuna to stand up and toast so seriously.
"Feel free to do it. Jin Zhongming just ordered the table in the air, and after taking a sip, he turned his head to look at Xiaoyuan on the other side. "Leave that aside for the time being, I heard that Xiaoyuan and you also have a good show with Sika in Japan?"
"It just almost got into a fight. Hyo-yeon was a little embarrassed and a little nervous. "But didn't we fight in the end?"
"Almost a fight?" Jin Zhongming felt a little thundered. "You almost got into a fight? I thought you were just arguing a few words......
The private room was as quiet as the classroom, and Jin Zhongming was like a homeroom teacher on a night self-study patrol in front of these people, and when he asked this, everyone didn't know what to say.
"Why didn't you tell me then?" Kim looked back at Sika.
"I'm afraid you're thinking too much. Sika, who was sober, was also a little embarrassed. "And didn't there be a fight?"
"It's better to fight. Jin Zhongming sneered. "One pulls his hair and the other scratches his face, there is no need to wait for a five-year curse, it is best to quit the team together before the fourth anniversary of his debut!"
"That's right. "Sunny is probably the only one who dares to care about nothing in front of Kim Jong Ming right now. At that time, Xiaoyuan said a complaining word, and then Mao Mao probably misunderstood, and suddenly said some harsh words in turn, plus you also know that the atmosphere in the team was very bad at that time, so the two of them quarreled fiercely...... But in the end, there really wasn't a fight, because the two of them looked at each other and cried like dogs as they talked......"
"For example. Jin Zhongming hugged his arms and sneered. "But why didn't you tear into a dog, but cry like a dog? What do you think, Beck?"
The previous sentence can be regarded as a question to everyone, but the latter sentence of bowing his head to ask Baker is obviously a mockery of everyone.
Well, here's one more thing, the always steady Baker III was busy nibbling on a plate of elbows, and by the way, he had to prevent the tofu that was not as big as his head from coming to grab food, so he didn't care about his master's question at all.
However, glancing at the confrontation between the two dogs under the table, Jin Zhongming was a little weak at first, because he understood in an instant why the two didn't fight...... To give a very inappropriate example, just as Tofu obviously wanted to come over and eat elbows but didn't dare to provoke Baker at all, Xiaoyuan estimated that she was also very aggrieved at that time, because she felt that if she really did it, she would definitely suffer in the end.
The popularity and strength of the two sides are too different, and more importantly, it is ...... And its own existence. And if I think about it like this, it doesn't seem appropriate for me to discuss this topic that has already passed, because it will only make Xiaoyuan feel aggrieved again.
As soon as he thought of this, Jin Zhongming suddenly started haha: "In short, this kind of thing must not happen, but since it has passed and it is reconciled, then I won't say more...... In other words, I heard that some of you have been buying a house recently, who are you, have you bought it? Do you want me to help you evaluate it? Kara's real estate purchased by those people is all checked and handled by our company......
"I did have my eye on an apartment in the neighborhood...... "Yuna was the first to react from this blunt twist. "But I'm still hesitating, mainly because I have bought a villa for my family in Jiangbei before, and now I ......"
"Now everyone is actually hesitant. Yuli also interjected to explain. "Now our income can only buy an apartment, and we have generally bought an industry once in our hometown or Jiangbei before...... So, if the outlook was uncertain last month, it would have been okay to grit your teeth and buy it and take your family over, but now that the company's 7-year contract expires, there should be no big problem, and everyone has some other ideas. β
"I talked to my mom and dad. "Seo Hyun is always the one who is very stable. "We're going to rent a big house first and buy it in two years......"
"I bought an expensive piano in my hurry!" Xiao Yuan added with a complicated expression. "It's very expensive, like the kind in a fairy tale...... Hundreds of millions of won. β
"I've always wanted a piano like that, so I gritted my teeth and bought it. Xu Xian replied with some embarrassment. "After I bought it, I had to reluctantly rent a house...... I can't afford to buy it if I want to. β
"Anyway, that's good. Jin Zhongming squinted his eyes and secretly looked at Xiao Yuan's expression, and he was relieved to see that the other party looked calm. "Actually, like you said, it's normal to not be able to afford it now, and it's okay to try to buy real estate because of anxiety...... But as you all said, now your revenue share is also very high, and you still have at least three years of golden time to make money. Therefore, anyone, whether it is a house or a car, there is always no need to feel tired for these things, seize the opportunity to raise their own grades, and earn more advertising money, this is the king's ......"
Jin Zhongming obviously heard the sound of relief in the private room, and it was obvious that these people were still under a lot of pressure when facing him.
"But oppa, haven't you thought about changing houses?" Xu Xian suddenly asked seriously. "The current market value of your apartment is less than 3 billion won, right? β
"And then?" Kim pouted. "My car is still older, why don't you see me get another one? What do you care about me?"
"That's not what I mean. Sunny burst out laughing. "She must have thought of a recent rumor about you......"
"What rumors?" Jin Zhongming was puzzled.
"Some people say that you don't actually live in the apartment over there for a long time, but have reserved a large space on the top floor of your company for two whole floors, in which there is no shortage of bedrooms, bars and everything, and it is said that there are more than a dozen bedrooms alone......"
"And then?" Jin Zhongming couldn't help but laugh. "Is it still rumored that I often bring a dozen female idol actresses to live in and not come out?"
"There really ...... say that"
"Those two floors are obviously the office areas and conference rooms of various NGOs, and outsiders who have been there don't know how many of them. Jin Zhongming was speechless. "And Sunny ......"
"What?"
"Xiuying is lying on the bed and can't move, is the responsibility for gossip yours?"
"Kindness is like a donkey's liver and lungs!And such a big building, who knows if you will really do something inappropriate with Chu Long in it?!"
"Do you think I'm you? As soon as the mood came, I called someone to come and sleep in the bed...... I heard that Hyo-min came out to live in a rented house? Why do I think it's a little weird, you won't live with her one day, right?"
"You want to take care of it?!"
The atmosphere was lively again, and everyone withdrew from this somewhat sensitive topic before, and this time they drank more fiercely and made more trouble.
And after a while, the whole private room has been completely messed up, many people have been drunk and hazy, and the seating order has long disappeared. As for Yori, this girl also joined the ranks of fighting after Kim Jong-myeong's words, so in the end, the only two who remained sober were Taeyeon and Sika, who had not drunk. The two of them looked at the noisy private room, obviously having a headache and helplessness...... Taeyeon, in particular, threw her face on the table, and she didn't know what she was sad about.
When the time came to nine o'clock, when Jin Zhongming was shocked to find that his wine bottle was empty, he immediately decided to leave. Because he knows that if he drinks it again, even if the media gives face, it will be rumors that he is unbearable in private through illegitimate meals and passers-by, after all, the weather is quite hot today, and everyone is dressed very thinly, and a man and eight idols drink like this in a private room, no matter how you explain it, you can't explain it. So while he is still sober, let Sika help him to walk from the bustling Qingtan Cave Road, then the rumors will naturally disappear invisibly, and it can be regarded as for the sake of this group of bombards who have drunk too much.
Thinking of doing it, Jin Zhongming immediately lowered his head and said to Sika, asking her to go out and call the company first and ask S.M Company to send an assistant to pick up people, and then, after sobering up a little, Jin Zhongming also reluctantly stood up, and dragged Baker's dog chain and staggered out.
"Where's the tofu?" Xu Xian rarely got drunk. "Where's my tofu?!won't be eaten by Baker?!"
"In your bag!" Yuli wordlessly pushed the other party. "You were so scared that Baker would eat the tofu that you stuffed it whole into your bag, and now you ask where the tofu is...... Oh, no!"
"What?" Xu Xian found the somewhat sullen tofu from his bag and excitedly put it on the table. "What's wrong?"
"Where's Baker??!" Gully looked under the table in surprise. "You won't be eaten by your tofu, will you?!"
"Did you eat Baker?" asked Pani, righteously pointing to the tofu on the table. "It's like eating that big piece of meat just now......"
"How can you eat Baker with such small tofu?" asked Sunny, who had the best amount of alcohol, speechlessly.
"What about Baker?" asked Gully dissatisfied.
"I ...... I don't know. Sunny looked down for a moment, then gave up.
"Could it be that Sicaoni learned from me and stuffed Baker into her bag?" asked Xu Xian, staggering to his feet. "But Sikao ......"
Before he could finish speaking, he fell back into his chair with a thud.
"Hah...... Woo...... I'm going to have a dog too!" The only sober person in the room, poor Taeyeon, suddenly hugged her head nervously and laughed, and when she saw Tofu slipping from the table to her eyes, she hugged the other party nervously and whimpered, I don't know if she was crying, or if she was simply venting an unknown emotion.
At this moment, Yun'er, who had been lying on the table for a while, was woken up by the sounds around her, and then raised her head blankly, she looked around, completely unaware of the surrounding situation, but it didn't matter, she didn't bother to care, in fact, she was just going to go to the bathroom......
Coming out of the wall, a waitress immediately intimately supported Yun'er, this is the meticulous service of a high-end restaurant, and just when she was about to go to the bathroom, she suddenly saw Sika standing around the corner who had just put down her mobile phone, and Baker, who was honestly squatting in front of Sika...... Well, it seems to be using its tail as a broom and sweeping the floor non-stop!
Of course, the most important thing is that there is also Jin Zhongming, who is sitting on a chair in the hall drinking tea, and he is looking over this way.
"Yuna...... I've already called Director Han. Sika followed Jin Zhongming's gaze and found Yun'er, so he hurriedly waved his hand in this direction. "He'll bring someone right away, stay in the private room and don't go out!"
"Oh. Yun'er didn't know what to say, and then she was about to turn around and leave.
But at this time, in the corner of her eye, she noticed that Jin Zhongming, who was dressed in a white shirt, put down the teacup and put on his coat...... Seems to want to go!
"That...... oppa!" Just as Kim Jong-ming stood up and walked in the direction of the door, an inexplicable impulse prompted Yuna to suddenly turn around and call out to the other party.
"What?" Jin Zhongming leaned against the wall around the corner and looked back.
"Thank you, I can do it myself......" Yun'er declined the waiter's support, and the waitress who knew the opportunity knew that the other party had something to say, so she took the initiative to retreat after following the other party.
βoppaβ¦β¦ I just wanted to ask you something. Yoona tried to stand more upright in front of Kim Jong-myeong, but in the end she managed to stabilize her body by being grabbed by Sika's arm.
Say. Jin Zhongming leaned against the wall and hugged him.
"Why are you so good to us?" Although she had already slept once, Yun'er's eyes were still not blurry and sloppy at the moment.
"What?" Jin Jongming may not have heard clearly at first, or he simply did not react.
"I said, oppa, why are you so nice to us...... You're not a fan of us, are you? You're usually disgusted with us, aren't you? So why are you so nice to me, to us...... You see you've done so many things for us......" Compared to her eyes, Yun'er's was extraordinarily sloppy, but there was no way, this was a natural physiological reaction after drinking, and she couldn't control it.
Jin Zhongming completely understood what the other party meant this time, so he couldn't help laughing: "First of all, because I am a good person." β
"What?" this time it was Yuna's turn to faint.
"I say because I'm a good person. Jin Zhongming replied shamelessly. "As we all know, I am a very good person, and I may not help my grandmother cross the street, but I will definitely call someone who has been hit by a car. So there are some things that may seem serious from your point of view, and I would appreciate them...... But have you ever thought about it, no matter who it happens, I will do my best to do what I can...... So, don't take it personally. β
How could it not be taken to heart? Yun'er sighed slightly in her heart, but she also agreed with the other party's explanation, there are always people in this world who have some basic conscience, and there are always people who are willing to change some things, she can't refute this explanation that seems to be fake and empty. In fact, she also believes that the other party must have done something she didn't know about, but there were more similar things.
But......
"What else?" asked Yuna as she continued to stagger.
"And ......," Jin Zhongming glanced down at Baker, who came over to rub his leg. "Favors can be done casually...... It's not just you, but acquaintances from YG, idols and comedy artists who have worked together on variety shows, and actors who have worked together in TV dramas and movies. And since it's a friendship, then it's good to help those who can help it, so why not do it?"
Yun'er became even more temperless, and only then did she think that it seemed that the other party was a little more harsh on herself in this regard! Every time she auditioned, she either let herself get out of the way, or let herself not come at all......
"That'...... Anything else?" Yuna continued to ask tentatively.
"Yes......" Jin Zhongming paused, but still nodded.
"What?"
"I don't want to say it. Jin Zhongming smiled and glanced at Sika, who was waiting a little impatiently. "Yoona, are you sure you want to hear it?"
"No need. Yuna also glanced at Sika, who was carrying her arm, and then did not choose to continue asking, because she was as smart as she knew very well, and some things that were said and unspoken were not the same thing at all. "Be careful when you go back...... I'll go back and lie down for a while. β
"Then take a good rest. Jin Zhongming flicked the other party's head back, and then turned around and left directly. "Don't think too much about it......"
Looking at the other party's departing figure, Yun'er, who fell to the sofa in the lobby where the other party was originally sitting, did not answer.
The waiter helped open the door of the restaurant, and on the night of September, Cheongdam Cave, the glitz of midsummer with a unique temperature rushed to the face like a heat wave, and for a moment, Kim Jong Ming was stimulated by this heat wave and was a little dazed.
"Don't you drive?" Sika took Baker with one hand and grabbed Jin Zhongming's coat with the other, of course, the latter was more like a nominal support, but in fact, Jin Zhongming was really not drunk to that extent.
"No, I don't. Jin Zhongming adjusted to the air outside and looked around a little, the crowd is not enough, but the flow is no problem, many people can't help but smile kindly when they see themselves drunk, and they are bored and take out their mobile phones to take pictures. "Such a close distance...... Just walk back and drive back tomorrow morning. But Maomao, if you think that one person can't take care of me, you can try to call Ermao and ask Ermao to come over......"
"That's it. Sika replied weakly. "The bear child has been very happy filming Japanese dramas recently, and he has been filming quite hard, and he has to insist on going to school and doing his homework...... Anyway, let her have a good rest. β
"It's rare for you to be so considerate of her. Jin Zhongming smiled slightly. "Then don't call her, let's go back by ourselves. Belch...... Let's go straight to the north, and then walk along the embankment after we get to the edge of the Han River, where it's cool. β
"Listen to you. The corners of Sika's mouth turned up slightly, and she didn't argue or discuss.
In this way, the two walked through the lively streets of Cheongdam-dong, and then walked across the Hangang South Road in the tension of Sika, and then came to the south embankment of the Han River...... And sure enough, as Kim Jong Ming said, the wind here is probably because of the natural refrigerator next to the Han River, and there is really a refreshing feeling that penetrates the heart.
Jin Zhongming put on the coat he was wearing seriously, and then he walked up the stone embankment with open arms, walking along the embankment like a child against the wind, while Sika under the embankment tilted his head to look at each other while holding Baker, and followed the other party's footsteps step by step.
"Wood...... Do you like it here?" "It was as if I particularly liked the balcony at home. β
"This ...... It seems like it's really the same thing. Jin Zhongming grinned. "When I was at home, I could quietly observe the whole of Seoul from the balcony, and I liked it because I could use the lively Cheongdam-dong and Apgujeong behind me as a backdrop...... Have you ever noticed that I always like to find the quietest spot in the most glitzy place, and then quietly observe the glitz and bustle?"
Sika nodded slightly, "I probably understand what you mean." β
"Really?" Kim Jong-ming continued to walk two steps along the embankment disapprovingly.
"Actually, as you said tonight, people are always changing their thoughts and habits as the environment changes, and I am the same...... But Wood, what kind of environmental change has made you feel like you're in this state of mind?"
"It's hard to say, I don't know. Jin Zhongming turned his head and stared at the bright lights on the south side of the embankment. "Maybe it's disgust and disdain for that glare and glitz, maybe it's envy and ambition. But whatever the reason, that's how I chose it. β
"Wood...... I've always had a thought in my mind. Sika stopped suddenly, the night wind blew her hair and skirt, especially her hair, and her long hair kept fluttering in front of her, which once reminded Jin Zhongming of that summer night five years ago, but there was still Ermao at that time, and it was on the bridge.
And now, there are only two people, but they are under the bridge.
"Maomao, you say. Jin Zhongming lowered his outstretched arms and asked with a condescending smile crossed his waist. "I'm listening. β
"Wood, I've thought about it more than once. Sika brushed her hair and looked up at the other person, with a hint of seriousness in her calm tone. "If, I mean if, if the three of us hadn't met the company's scouts back then, or maybe I hadn't insisted on being an idol...... I...... You, are you still here, or are you still confined by the city and the country, what kind of life are you supposed to live, and are you still in the habit of hiding in a quiet place and watching the lights?"
"Maybe not, maybe there is. Jin Zhongming smiled and raised his hands. "Maybe there will be a similar life trajectory as now. But maybe as you think, I'm already in another bigger world, in China, in the United States, in Europe, maybe life will be a lot more exciting...... But Maomao, this kind of speculation is meaningless, why don't you ask, if it was a mistake back then, our two families didn't meet together, and I didn't see you at all, then I ......"
"I don't allow you to make such assumptions!" Sika interrupted in a deep voice. "It's different. β
"Why?"
"Because we are so deeply entangled with each other, from birth to now, many things are connected. Making that kind of guess means that I don't have you in my life, and that's a denial for the rest of my life. β
"Then here's the problem. Kim Jong Ming jumped off the embankment and came in front of Sika. "Mao Mao, from the beginning of the assumption is to deny your own life, but from the halfway to start the assumption, isn't it denying your half of your life? Now the fact is that you did meet the scout of S.M Company that day, and then you did choose to go there as a trainee, and then 7 years of trainee life, and then another 4 years...... Is it true that the whole 11 years have passed in vain? Haven't the events of these 11 years been integrated into the marrow of you and me? You can't accept the time that has changed since 22 years ago, can I accept that I don't have the reality of these 11 years? You can't accept that life has been stripped of me from the beginning, can I accept that the 11 years we have experienced together have come to naught?"
"Wood, I'm just ......" Listening to the other party's slightly hurried tone, Sika was obviously a little overwhelmed. "It's just that after I heard your conversation with Yuna just now, I feel like I've dragged down your life a bit......"
"Maomao, you just said it yourself. Jin Zhongming grabbed the other party's shoulders and continued to walk down the embankment. "The entanglement between me and you is too deep, and the bond between you and me has appeared since shortly after birth, and it has long been like a real blood tie that has entwined the two of us and can no longer be separated...... So, you're dragging me down, so what? I'm willing! As for what I said to Yun'a just now, it was a matter of course for us...... If it weren't for you, if it weren't for the fact that they were your teammates, what would it matter to me about their careers?!"
Sika was silent.
Walk on the main road, cross the East Lake Bridge, and you will already be at the door of your home.
