Chapter 35: Sympathy

(Roll around for recommendations and favorites―.) ―)

Kim Tae-yeon's impression of Lee Ji-hyun has always stayed that he is a boy with a very passive personality, and he is always cautious, such as the initial "stage accident", and he will always deliberately keep a distance under his enthusiastic appearance, so deliberately that he will not attract attention.

Kim Taeyeon also paid attention to this detail because she liked to be sullen and silent.

Kim Tae-yeon has witnessed the whole process of his contact with Tiffany, and if it weren't for Tiffany's too enthusiasm, Lee Ji-hyun may still maintain a relationship that is not far away.

And even every time I greet him after the stage accident, Kim Taeyeon takes the initiative to nod his head in greeting, and he will respond with a smile.

So not only Lee Ji-hyun, but Kim Tae-yeon was also surprised that he would take the initiative to contact him.

At this moment, no matter how hard Lee Ji-hyun meditated, he couldn't find a suitable entry point for the topic, and seeing that Kim Taeyeon was more accessible than she imagined, he simply opened his mouth ruthlessly: "Has Taeyeon Xi seen the Infinite Challenge Song Festival?" β€œ

"Of course I did, and the fans knew that I was a fan of the infinite challenge."

"Would you be surprised if I said that I was going to participate in the Challengeless Song Festival as a guest producer?"

β€œmoοΌŸβ€œ Kim Taeyeon suddenly stirred, and her crossed calves straightened in shock, "You said you were going to participate in the Unprovoked Song Festival?" Or as a guest? β€œ

"Inside!" Li Zhixian's reply was simple and clear, and several smiley expressions were added to the back.

"Ah, why are you telling me this, wouldn't it be miserable if someone found you?" Kim Taeyeon's reaction was not to be surprised, happy or disbelieving, but to worry that he would be found out about revealing the program information at the first time, and he lectured him.

When Li Zhixian talked about the song festival, he regained his vigor and was in the mood, so he replied without thinking: "That's why I chose to tell you instead of Tiffany!" And as far as the two of us know, if you don't say it, I don't say who knows! β€œ

Kim Taeyeon was slightly stunned, and a question rose in her heart: Can she and him share this secret relationship?

But in any case, he shouldn't trust others so easily, so he continued to preach ruthlessly: "You didn't do the broadcast on the first day and the second day, can't you tell what you can say and can't say?" β€œ

I don't understand why Kim Taeyeon is so angry, Lee Ji-hyun blurted out the words that were in his heart: "I believe Taeyeon, I've only told you, and I'm silent about others." β€œ

Ignore Zico outright.

Kim Taeyeon looked at Lee Ji-hyun's reply in a daze, and she didn't react when the phone screen went off.

Seeing the "1" prompt that showed that the message had been read was conceited, and after waiting for a long time without receiving a reply from Kim Taeyeon, Lee Ji-hyun guessed if he was too abrupt, the relationship between the two was not close after all, and his fingers began to keep tapping apology on the screen.

"Click!"

"Can you tell me how you did it?"

A message suddenly popped up in the chat window, and Li Zhixian erased the unfinished text after seeing it, his eyes fluctuated slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Kim Taeyeon is really as good as she looks, and she will never live up to the trust of others, so she told her her about her mental journey: "It is to use your ostrich-like courage to fight hard, bravely recommend yourself to Kim Tae-ho PD, and persuade him softly." β€œ

Ostrich-like ...... Courage?

Kim Taeyeon muttered to herself alone, and then typed back, "Hmmm...... How can it be as simple as you say! β€œ

"If you talk about it from beginning to end, I'm afraid you may not be able to make it clear until late at night!"

"Then you can go into a little more detail, just a little! Dig it out! Then he made a little finger emoji.

In the online world, she is no longer the taciturn character in reality, her eccentric nature is revealed, and she plans to help him keep secrets, so why not satisfy her curiosity by the way!

Lee Ji-hyun told Kim Taeyeon for the first time about his preparations for the Ultimate's ballad festival: "Although the schedule for the festival was only confirmed today, in fact, I started preparing for this plan more than half a month ago. β€œ

"Wait a minute, if I'm not mistaken, you've only been with MBC for just over two months, right? How did you manage to prepare well in advance for the festival schedule? Lee Ji-hyun's story was interrupted by Kim Tae-yeon at the very beginning.

Lee Chi Hyun patiently explained to her: "The Ultimate-Tune Song Festival has become an infinitely challenging brand, and it is held every two years in the fall, so if you count the preparation time for the show, it is almost time to set the schedule around April." After calculating the time, I started preparing in advance in order to come up with a convincing reason for the special meeting of the Song Festival. β€œ

"Hmm~" Kim Taeyeon replied and motioned for him to continue, then changed to a more comfortable position and lay down, staring at the phone.

"Then half a month ago, I made an appointment with Brother Gaeko to meet." Like many Koreans, Lee Ji-hyun is also accustomed to sending long messages one by one.

β€œgaeko? That gaeko of DynamicDuo? Kim Tae-yeon couldn't help but interrupt him again, wanting to make sure that the gaeko he was talking about was not the one she knew.

"I'm going to call Gaeko Senpai!" Li Zhixian corrected her salutation.

"Nenene!" You can see her impatience between the lines, "But how did you know Gaeko's senior?" β€œ

"I met through my friend Zhihao's introduction." "Ah, you may not know Zhihao, do you know zico?" Li Zhixian then added.

"BlockB's captain zico?" Several MCs of the infinite challenge are not familiar with the music industry and don't know zico, and Kim Tae-yeon, as an "old-timer" in the idol world, basically knows more or less about this information.

"Well, you know him?"

"Ah, pinch, I met it during the event. How did you meet zicoxi? β€œ

"We've known each other since we were kids, and we're young."

"Oh oh oh!" Kim Taeyeon hit three times in a row to say that she understood, and was a little surprised that he would have such connections, but then remembered his identity as a composer, and suddenly understood.

"Ah, I forgot where you interrupted!"

"kekekekeke" A long list of laughing symbols was sent, and Kim Taeyeon herself rolled on the sofa with laughter, not paying attention to the sentence sent by Lee Ji-hyun.

Li Zhixian flipped through the chat logs, and continued with the previous story: "After meeting with Brother Gaeko, I explained the situation to him, and he readily agreed, so I had the first bargaining chip in the negotiation. β€œ

"Hmm!" It's still a simple word, but the punctuation marks are different, this time it means that she understands the meaning of what Li Zhixian said about chips. He is a composer who hits the streets, even if he has infinitely challenging internal relationships, no one will agree that he is messing around with the special of the Unprovoked Song Festival, but with the help of such a senior in the music world, the persuasiveness immediately becomes different.

"Then I began to look back and forth through the videos of the previous successful Unchallenged Ballad Festival, and I found a pattern, every time the composition of the Ultimate, the composition of the Ultimate, a topstar, plus a singer-songwriter with a sense of artistry, mixed with several groups of niche artists, infinite challenges always expect to form a diverse group to cater to the different requirements of the audience. So I thought that these groups of niche artists invited might be my chance! β€œ
