Finished......

In the dreary atmosphere of the conference room, it was so quiet that there was no sound, and the whole meeting was held from six o'clock in the morning until more than three o'clock now, and most of the day made everyone full of tiredness, but they still couldn't think of a solution.

At this point, in the face of such huge pressure from public opinion, many of the staff members present already had the answer in their hearts, but no one was willing to take the lead in saying it.

This time, CCM couldn't do anything even if it tried its best.

Rao was fully prepared before, but no one expected Jiang Hudong to jump out, and the timing was completely good, just because not long after the incident of VIP and YG touching Li Zaiting, the public's impression of Li Zaiting's disrespect for his predecessors had just begun to dissipate.

first used scandals to disrupt all the preparations of the CCM company, and then Jiang Hudong casually joked on the national hit variety show, and then handed over the matter of guiding public opinion to the reporter of KBS TV Entertainment News, with a clean and neat approach, so that people could not grasp the slightest handle.

"Okay, everyone is tired, let's go back first, if anyone thinks of any solution, tell me immediately...... In the court, you stay for a while!! Looking around, Kim Kwang-so snuffed out his cigarette and leaned back in his chair with a tired face, his sluggish black face lacking any energy. Seeing that Kim Kwang-so finally spoke, all the staff members present were almost secretly relieved as if they were burdened, and the hearts that had been carrying them were also relaxed.

There was a sound of bumping tables and chairs, and all the staff involved in the meeting left their seats one after another, and when they came back to their senses, Li Zaiting quickly got up and bowed to the departing staff one by one to apologize, and now, he knew that this was all he could do.

After everyone left the conference room, Lee Jae-ting hesitated slightly, and then walked to the position of Kim Kwang-so's head with some embarrassment, and pulled a chair and sat down. No one else was present, and the gloomy expression on Kim Kwang-so's face became easy-going.

Re-lit a cigarette, Kim Kwang-so looked at the silent Lee Jae-ting, groaned slightly, and then took a deep breath of the cigarette and exhaled, "... In the court, maybe after this time, you will have to rest for a long time, if you are usually fine, you can stay in the company and make music, I hope you will have a chance to start anew in the future......"

An indescribable sense of frustration haunted his heart, and Li Zaiting nodded silently, his confused thoughts making him not know what to do.

"It doesn't matter if Jiang Hudong's joke is true or not, the important thing is that the public thinks it's true, as a national MC, the words that come out of his mouth will be believed by countless people, news and reporters are just puppets, unless we can get people with higher achievements than him to come out and help you, otherwise we don't have the slightest chance to ......"

After speaking slowly, Kim Kwang-so sighed, "... The only thing I can think of right now is drag! Drag it until the end of the qiē, drag it until the public's bad impression of you fades, and then see if you can find a movie to bring you back. But even if that's the case, I don't know how long it will take, maybe months, maybe years......"

What to do?!

Dragging his tired body back to the 404 music room, Li Zaiting rested his head on his arms and lay on the chair weakly. Things got to this point, and when he thought about it, he realized how stupid he was.

Before that, he always thought that he knew the entertainment industry very well, but now, he realized that his understanding of the entertainment industry was too one-sided and too superficial. At least, he never thought that Jiang Hudong, one of the 'three mountains', would jump out to help Lee Seung-gi black himself regardless of his image.

When a person's identity, status, and achievements have reached a certain height, any shortcomings in this person will be overshadowed by the light of merit, even if this person is a spurned addict or a heinous murderer, just as Stalin killed millions of his own people, and countless people labeled him 'great'.

A 'national MC' who is high up and cares for his juniors, a newcomer who has just debuted not long ago and has long been discredited, the public will choose who to believe, and the result is clear.

It's really unwilling......

Squinting slightly, Li Zaiting sighed secretly, if there was no accident, he knew that his path to the entertainment industry would be completely gone.

"oppa......" A cute and weak call slowly put away his thoughts, Li Zaiting, who was lying on the computer chair, turned his head, and at the door of the music room, I don't know when there was a young and weak figure.

Park Ji-yeon pursed her mouth tightly and gently took small steps to Lee Jae-ting's side.

"Oppa, are you sad?!" casually put the takeaway on the computer table, Park Ji-yeon affectionately bent down and lay on Lee Jae-ting's chest, her little hand resting on her delicate little chin, tilting her head to look at Lee Jae-ting's eyes fixedly, so many things happened at once, she was very worried that her villain uncle would not be able to bear it, or she would not be able to think of something 'completely stupid'.

"I didn't ...... I'm fine!! Lee Jae-ting smiled lightly and rubbed Park Ji-yeon's little head dotingly, he wanted to say no, but when he saw that the little face that was always cheerful and happy on weekdays was full of worry, and when the words came to his mouth, he couldn't help but change his words again.

At this time, lies will only make people more worried, and he doesn't want this innocent little girl to worry too much about himself.

"Then let's have dinner together, okay?!" Park Ji-yeon blinked, her voice was a little weak, and she didn't have her usual grinning appearance at all.

"Okay......" Looking at Park Ji-yeon, who looked like a good baby, Lee Jae-jeong smiled slightly, and couldn't help but raise his hand and pinch the fleshy little face in front of him.

As if acquiescing to Lee Jae-ting's actions, Park Ji-yeon rarely did not burst into a rage, but wrinkled her cute little nose and spit out her little tongue at Lee Jae-ting, and immediately took the takeaway that was put aside.

The meal was not very rich, just a very simple Jeonju bibimbap, although Lee Jae-jeong had no appetite, but Park Ji-yeon, who was already hungry and couldn't stand it, ate it very deliciously.

"Here, eat more meat!!" Seeing Park Ji-yeon's mouth stuffed and muttering, but her eyes were staring at the only few pieces of pork belly in the lunch box, Lee Jae-jeong pursed her lips, picked up chopsticks and sandwiched all the meat into her lunch box.

For some reason, every time he saw this little girl eating, he felt very funny.

"Inner ???" Looking at the sudden extra pork belly in the bowl under her eyes, Park Ji-yeon raised her little head blankly, and immediately, her little hand quickly sandwiched the pork belly into Li Zaiting's bowl, leaving only the two smallest pieces of pork belly for herself, "Oba needs to eat more meat, so that he can have the strength to seek revenge on those villains." ”

Revenge?!

I don't know why, seeing Park Ji-yeon, a little person who shares food when she comforts people, and that little face full of honesty, Lee Jae-jeong's heart warmed, and suddenly he was a little sad, which made this cute little girl worry, and he found that he was very useless.

After a while, putting away his thoughts and trying to manage his expression, Lee Jae-jeong rubbed Park Ji-yeon's little head dotingly, reached out and put the meat back again, "You eat first, and when we go home in the evening, oppa will cook Celestial Empire dishes for you to eat." ”

Blinking, Park Ji-yeon looked at Lee Jae-jeong, who was smiling again, motionless, as if confirming something.

Comforting people, sometimes just a word, a simple pat on the shoulder, but sometimes it takes a lot of thought and energy, the simple and ignorant Park Ji-yeon is not very good at comforting people, she can only think of this simple and clumsy method.

But at this moment, she found that her badass uncle didn't seem to have the sullen appearance just now.

After a while, after dinner, Lee Jae-jeong asked Park Ji-yeon to go back to the dormitory to pack her clothes, so that she could take them home together after she finished practicing at night.

Now, there is no need to hide in the company and not show up, and now he doesn't care if anyone is following him to secretly take pictures and expose scandals. Moreover, if he had the opportunity, even if he couldn't be an artist in the future, he made up his mind to make the idiots who insulted him pay the price.

The night was as dark as ink, and the sky was full of stars......

On the way home, Li Zaiting silently looked at the familiar scenery on the side of the street while driving, and couldn't help but feel a little melancholy. For some reason, looking at it, he always felt as if he was back to what he was before his debut.

I stayed in the company every day until the end of the practice class in the evening, and then went home with Park Ji-yeon, got up early the next morning, sent Park Ji-yeon to school, and then came to the company to report, from 9 to 5 in the morning, day after day, every day.

"By the way, oppa, there's something I forgot to tell you just now..."A cute whisper interrupted Li Zaiting's confused thoughts.

In the car, Park Ji-yeon, who was sitting in the co-pilot, gently tapped Lee Jae-ting's arm and muttered angrily, "... The president arranged for me to participate in a modeling contest, and he asked me to ask if you could write a promotional song for me......"

Lee Jae-ting, who had long been surprised by Park Ji-yeon's big grin and forgetting about the small problem, smiled clearly, and a wisp of tenderness overflowed inexplicably from his mouth, "... Okay, no problem at all... By the way, haven't you always wanted to learn how to compose songs? I'll teach you together tomorrow. ”

Speaking of this, Lee Jae-jeong suddenly remembered that Park Ji-yeon, Han Eun-jeong and Park Hyo-min always wanted to learn to compose music with him but never had the opportunity, and now, he found that he had time to teach these three girls well.

"Okay, okay...'hey'......" Park Ji-yeon had just clapped her hands and screamed in joy when she was interrupted by a sudden ringing of 'emptiness' phone.

Park Ji-yeon was stunned, then very obediently took the mobile phone placed on the car window and looked at it, and then handed it to Lee Jae-ting, "Oppa, it's Kim Jong Kook Oba calling." ”

Rubbing Park Ji-yeon's little head, Lee Jae-jeong took the mobile phone before he could speak, and Kim Jong-kook's voice on the other end of the phone had already come, "Zaitong, come out for a drink!" ”

People want to drink a glass or two when they are troubled, especially men, for things that can eliminate troubles, Li Zaiting did not refuse, because he wants to get drunk now, and then forget all his troubles, even if it is a temporary forgetting, he also feels a lot more comfortable.

The place to drink is not in any nightclub bar, but in the food stalls by the Han River, Kim Jong Kook does not like to go to nightclubs, and Lee Jae-jeong also does not like the kind of noisy and chaotic places.

After sending Park Ji-yeon home, Lee Jae-jeong poured a bottle of Jinlu as soon as he found Kim Jong-kook.

"In the court, if you want to open up a little, sometimes it's so dark in the entertainment industry, maybe, it will be like what Brother Guangzhu said, it will get better after a while, look at me, isn't my brother slowly boiling now?!" Putting down the wine glass, Jin Zhong Chinese patted Li Zaiting's shoulder in a long voice, and his words were full of helplessness.

When Lee Jae-ting and Liu Renna first broke the scandal, he faintly noticed that something was wrong, how could someone secretly take so many photos in such a secret place as the gym? Although he guessed that it was a good thing that Lee Seung-gi did, he thought that Lee Seung-gi wanted to use the scandal to smear Lee Jae-ki's anger in court, but he didn't expect that the final matter would develop to such an irreparable point.

"Brother, I'm fine, I'm just a little unwilling, but then again, brother, are the two of us considered difficult brothers? You haven't boiled it out yet, I'm ready to start boiling it again!! Although he planned to use alcohol to kill his sorrows, Li Zaiting didn't want to say too much about the previous things, and even God couldn't change what had happened, so he didn't want to worry about himself anymore.

"Hahaha, that seems right......"

"Come on, brother, let's have a toast for this!!"

From singing to football, and from football to variety shows, there seems to be more and more troubles, and more and more wine is drunk.

"Hey! Brother, you're not going to get drunk, are you? Can you still drink it?! ”

After shaking his dizzy head, Li Zaiting saw Kim Jong Kook lying on the table motionless as if he was asleep, so he took out his mobile phone and made a call to Kim Jong Kook's agent to ask him to come and pick up people, and then drank alone in the food stall.

More than 20 minutes later, he politely rejected Kim Jong Kook's agent's offer to send him home, and the somewhat dazed Lee Jae-jeong still did not leave, and now he didn't want to go home, because he found that he didn't seem to have drunk enough, and he still had so many troubles in his heart that he hadn't forgotten.

Drinking alone is the most uncomfortable, no one talks, no one chats, no one clinks glasses, only loneliness and loneliness accompany you......

A long time ago, Li Zaiting always thought that Zhenlu's 10-20 soju was not intoxicating at all, but when he vomited a few times and needed to lie on the table to try to keep the last trace of consciousness to hold his mobile phone, he was dizzy, and he found that he was very wrong.

"Hey! The kid seems to be drunk and asleep? The phone rang for so long and I didn't answer!! ”

At one o'clock in the morning, seeing Li Zaiting lying motionless on the small wooden table, the mobile phone on the table kept ringing, and the boss of the food stall couldn't help but walk over with some worry......

"Inside?! … Drunk?! Excuse me, where is your store located? …… Okay, okay, I'll rush over right away, I'll be there soon, please help me take care of him first......"

Hurriedly put down the phone, the pretty girl with a worried face ran out of the room with anxiety and anxiety, and came to the side of the road to stop a taxi.

"Driver, please hurry up, I'm in a hurry!!" On the way to Hangang Park, the moment she got into the car, the girl felt for the first time that she hated taxi drivers so much, and that she was driving so slowly for such a short distance.
