Chapter 120: Like a Brother
At the Korean-style low square table, four people sit in two rows, with two beautiful ladies on one side and two men who look like each other on the other. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Li Yiming is also among them.
Even with a cushion, he was still not used to kneeling on the tatami mat, so now he was sitting cross-legged across from the two attractive ladies, and Rao was still a cut above the man kneeling next to him.
The man next to him looked like he was only about thirty years old, and even the eyes that could best tell his age were extremely clear, coupled with his very fashionable dress, he should not look a few years older than Li Yiming. The two look alike, and those who don't know probably think they are brothers who are related by blood.
If it weren't for this, the four of them wouldn't have made jokes when they first met......
It's not so embarrassing, but after Zheng Xiujing took her sister to meet Li Yiming, she thought that the latter said that she was bringing a very good friend, so she took the initiative to wave and say hello, and even affectionately called "oppa" - only because she is Li Yiming's friend, you must know that she has always recognized life, and if she is not a familiar friend, she will be shy even if she takes the initiative to say hello.
This initiative is commendable, but on today's occasion... It's really a direct teaching, Zheng Xiujing wants to dig a hole in the ground and get into it by herself.
"Uh... This is, me, my dad, my dad is very easy-going, you can call him Joey. ”
When she heard Li Yiming's words, Zheng Xiujing had no other thoughts in her mind except embarrassment, she was really embarrassed! She had affectionately called the other side oppa a minute ago!
"I'm Yiming's girlfriend Zheng Xiujing, you're his good friend, I don't know what I should call it, oppa?" Zheng Xiujing didn't want to show her timidity because she wanted to see the man's good friend, and even showed a very gentle smile in her heart, who would have thought that just because she was different from the usual initiative, everything was messed up, and it was not enough to describe it as self-defeating.
The dishes had already been served, and the four of them were concentrating on the dishes in front of them, except for empty conversations such as "this dish is good" and "his family tastes really good", there was basically no communication during the banquet.
Halfway through the four-person "date", it was the eldest Mr. Joey who took the initiative to speak, and the atmosphere of the meal finally began to ease.
"Xiujing xi, you... How long have you been with Yiming? Mr. Joey temporarily put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth before looking up and asking Zheng Xiujing.
He speaks Korean, and although he has a non-standard accent because he hasn't used it for a long time, it's not like a foreigner speaking Korean, it's more like a Korean pretending to be a foreigner speaking Korean, and the logic of the sentences is correct and very fluent.
Zheng Xiujing hurriedly raised her head, I don't know if it was because of the joke before, or because it was the first time I met my parents, so my little face was flushed, but fortunately, the private room was decorated in an old-fashioned hanok style, and even the lights were not so bright, so it shouldn't be too obvious.
"I've been with Yiming OPPA for almost two months... Uncle. ”
"Oh......" Joey nodded in a long voice, not asking more.
Li Yiming glanced at him quietly, and put down his chopsticks himself, "But we have liked each other for a long time, almost since I first arrived in South Korea......
Joey raised his eyebrows, his real name like "Li Guoxing" really didn't have a bit of a sense of compatibility, with a strong sense of disobedience - perhaps because he was engaged in a profession like a photographer, and he has been working in a special studio for top fashion brands, his personality is very out-of-the-box like those art workers, never paying attention to generation, age and other things that are very valued in Asian countries, approachable at the same time, always have a liveliness beyond his age.
"Love at first sight?"
"Yes."
“No。”
Distinct answers came from the mouths of a man and a woman, and the two sitting opposite each other glanced at each other, and a gentle smile appeared on their faces after they staggered. The girl next to Zheng Xiujing glanced at her deeply, then glanced away at Li Yiming opposite, and smiled when she saw the gentle look on the faces of the two.
"Oh?" Joey's mouth became an "O" shape, "There's a story in it."
"Tell me, you... Who likes whom first? ”
Li Yiming was stunned, and Zheng Xiujing's answer seemed unthinking.
"I've been a fan of OPPA since before he came to Korea!"
Joey opened his mouth, he and Li Yiming were really similar in some places, their similar looks were secondary, and even some subtle expressions were exactly the same, "It's so good." ”
He didn't avoid suspicion and didn't make an evaluation because the person concerned was his son, but followed Zheng Xiujing's tone and said: "It's really a happy thing to be with the idol you like." ”
The tone is sincerely happy for the girl I just met today.
Zheng Xiujing, who heard the words, just pursed her mouth, but her cheekbones couldn't help but rise.
Joey gently slapped Li Yiming's chest, and said with a teasing expression: "Then it's Xiujing Xi chasing you?" ”
"It's not!" Li Yiming immediately denied it, "I'll confess first." ”
Before Joey could say anything, Zheng Xiujing was dissatisfied: "Is that a confession?" ”
Li Yiming was stunned, and he didn't seem to be very sure: "It should... Sort of, right? ”
Not only Joey, but even Zheng Xiujing's side has not spoken, and the woman she calls "sister" also laughed.
Seeing that they were laughing, Li Yiming touched the back of his head embarrassedly, "Hey... It doesn't matter if it's a confession or not, we like each other anyway.
"Yes, that's it!" He nodded earnestly, as if he recognized his words.
"That's not right!" Zheng Xiujing was obviously not very satisfied with Li Yiming's vague appearance, even if the elders were still here, they couldn't help but pout: "I prefer oppa." ”
"Is there one?" Li Yiming raised his eyebrows, and his expression was the same as Joey's before, as if carved out of a mold, "I think I like Xiujing a little more." ”
The tone is serious.
"Don't talk about that." Joey interrupted the two in time, otherwise it would be a long time to argue, "I heard Yiming say that Xiujing Xi has just released a new album, so she has been very busy lately, and it is really ...... to find time to accompany him in such a situation" He gave a thumbs up.
"Nope." Zheng Xiujing hurriedly waved her hand, Li Yiming, who was staring at her, had already noticed the flush on her face, probably because of the sudden meeting with Joey today, the blush was more obvious, and it didn't return to normal for a long time.
"Actually, I also had an appointment with OPPA today, so I took the time to come out." She looked ashamed.
"Oh-" Li Yiming nodded in unison, and couldn't help but glance at the person next to Zheng Xiujing, "That's why I introduced Sister Xiuyan to me......"
The girl nodded, embarrassed.
Li Yiming, who saw it in his eyes, thought of teasing her, "Then if it wasn't for something, Xiujing wouldn't have planned to see me?" ”
"Not really!" The girl hurriedly said, but because of the presence of her sister and Joey, she just changed the subject, "Ahem, let me introduce it officially." ”
She cleared her throat and pointed to her sister beside her with both hands, "This is my pro-Ernie, Jung so-yeon, but everyone usually calls her Jessica." ”
She pointed to Li Yiming and said to Zheng Xiuyan beside her: "This is ...... My male parent, Li Yiming. ”
"Hello."
"Hello."
The two nodded to each other.
The name Jessica, Li Yiming has not heard it, as early as when he first came to South Korea, after getting acquainted with Zheng Xiujing, he searched for her name on the Internet, and it turned out that Zheng Xiujing's information introduction, followed by "F(x) member", is "the sister of Girls' Generation member Jessica".
The name of Girls' Generation, even if Li Yiming rarely pays attention to the music industry, knows that they are the well-deserved NO.1 of the girl group in the Korean Wave, no one can match it in terms of status and achievements, and no one can shake its status as the No. 1 girl group in South Korea.
However, Li Yiming also knows that to this day, Jessica's resume has to add the word "former" to the title of "member of Girls' Generation".
Although there is not even news from S.M officials now, he knows that Jessica and Girls' Generation have long been separated, not speculation, but because the memory of hearing Zheng Xiujing and a certain member of Girls' Generation by chance in the coffee shop is still very clear.
Li Yiming is not stupid, on the contrary, he is actually very smart, since Zheng Xiujing brought this Jessica, the two sides only took a face-to-face, and he probably knew his girlfriend's thoughts.
Zheng Xiujing just mentioned that she had something to do with him, and Li Yiming affirmed his interpretation.
He and Jessica can be said to be completely different people, in fact, the circles of Li Yiming and Zheng Xiujing are completely different, if it were not for Li Yiming coming to South Korea, there would be no intersection at all.
Li Yiming listened to Zheng Xiujing's conversation with a young member before, and mentioned that her sister Jessica fell out with the company because of her personal branding, and Li Yiming had mentioned to Zheng Xiujing before that he planned to take out the money in the bank to make a little investment, of course, in order to surprise the other party, he had already prepared, and he did not mention it to the girl about setting up a brokerage company soon.
This Nizi... I guess she wants to get herself into her sister's personal brand and provide funds as an investment......
Although Zheng Xiujing didn't speak, Li Yiming had already guessed that he was not far from ten, not because he took it for granted, but in addition to this, Li Yiming really couldn't think of why the other party had to say that he had something to ask him to meet, and he also made a special trip to bring her sister Jessica with him.
Although Li Yiming knew, he didn't think there was anything to be embarrassed about, although he knew that he would definitely refuse-because the money was going to be used to prepare the company, and he didn't have the money to do anything else for a while.
It's not a big deal, pick things out, and say sorry to Zheng Xiujing's sister for being late, Li Yiming also feels that this is just an opportunity to explain, anyway, the establishment of Future is a matter of the past few days, and it doesn't hurt to expose this surprise to Zheng Xiujing in advance.
But......
Li Yiming looked at Jessica, who was smiling, and then glanced at Mr. Joey beside him, and couldn't help but feel a little desolate for the former.
She will definitely say things like "set up a fashion brand, let's see if Li Yiming Xi is interested", and when it comes to "fashion", and in front of Li Yiming's father, the queen photographer of the Olsen sisters' studio, things seem to be a bit big.
Oh no...... Li Yiming couldn't help frowning, because as long as Mr. Joey talked about fashion, he was a completely different face - obsessed, crazy, red-faced, really a living "fashion maniac".
"Amen." Li Yiming muttered, his heart had already begun to draw a cross for Jessica, and he only hoped that his crazy father was not in a bad mood today: only then what he said would not be so harsh, unacceptable, and impolite.
