Chapter 2: Reunion Again

Lee Jaemin slowly opened his eyes, the sunlight was a little dazzling, and after adapting to it for a few seconds, his vision became clearer, and he saw a white-walled courtyard and a green lawn.

Where is this? He jerked over and sat up, swaying to his feet, and found himself lying on a hanging chair in the courtyard. His neck was a little stiff, and when he turned his face slowly, his ears buzzed, and the whole person was stunned. Isn't that in the courtyard of his house when he first returned to Seoul a few years ago?

A few years ago? The feeling of a splitting headache hit him, and he shook his head vigorously to make himself more sober, and his thoughts were still confused. I don't understand that weishenme would have the idea of "a few years ago", not long after he came back from the United States, when he went out at noon today, he suddenly became dizzy and fell on the hanging chair in the yard.

However, what was going on at that concert, the scenes flashed through my mind like a slide, and then twisted and stretched. The memories that seemed clear and abnormal just now seem to wake up from a long dream, and other things that happened in the dream are quickly forgotten, only the scene and feeling of the concert are still profound, and the heart-wrenching pain still seems to linger in my mind.

Suddenly, there was a ringing in the pocket of his jacket, and Lee Jae-min put his chaotic thoughts aside first, and hurriedly took out his mobile phone to see that there were many missed call prompts at the top of the screen, and the name of the caller ID was "Xiao Dese". The corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile, and a delicate and beautiful girl seemed to appear in front of him.

Xiao Dese, named Lim Yoon-a, is 18 years old this year and works as a trainee at S.M, the largest brokerage company in South Korea.

When Lee Jae-min was 12 years old, he moved with his adoptive father to Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul. Because his adoptive father has a more old-fashioned personality, and he has always been very strict with him, and he is too demanding and has a lot of rules, he has followed the rules no matter what he has done since he was a child, and he feels like a serious little adult, and this character has not improved until he went abroad.

Although such a character is very pleasing to adults, Lee Jae-min can't make friends of the same age because of this. gets along with his peers, and others feel that he speaks and does things awkwardly, so they will unconsciously reject him. When I lived in Yeongdeungpo District, there was a little girl who was an exception, the youngest daughter of her adoptive father's senior, Lin Yun'er, who he sometimes called "Little Dese", who was 5 years younger than him, and usually liked to pester him to make trouble. And not only is he helpless to love Yun'a, but he is often teased by Yun'er who comes up with strange ideas. In this way, for several years in Yeongdeungpo-gu, he always followed a small tail behind him until he went abroad at the age of 18.

After returning to Seoul from abroad, one day at the end of January, he met Yuna on the bus home, and he didn't see her this year, she changed a little bit, she became a girl since she was a child, but fortunately she recognized herself at a glance.

S.M's company is not too far from his residence, and Yuna basically runs to him to play whenever she has time. After two months of getting along, the two lost the restraint and strangeness after reuniting, and he even gave Yun'er a set of keys to the house. Yun'er gradually became spoiled and naughty with him like she did when she was a child, and she was no better than before.

“oppa! Why is your phone always unanswered? The phone was connected, and Yuna's complaining voice came, "Aren't you coming to our company to sign a contract?" I've been running back and forth between the hall and the practice room a lot, where have you been? Can't get through on the phone? ”

Listening to Yuna's voice a little like a little boy, Lee Jaemin's smile became even stronger, this is her performance when she is angry, you don't have to think about it to know that she is pouting and staring at her phone, "I was going to go in the afternoon, but I don't know why I fell asleep in the yard." ”

"Asleep?! You actually ...... such an important thing" Yun'er snorted speechlessly, and then asked urgently, "Your voice?" Is it unwell? Did you go to the hospital? If you contact the minister about signing the contract again, there shouldn't be much of a problem. ”

Lee Jaemin himself was also startled, his voice was unusually dry and hoarse, he covered the microphone, coughed lightly a few times, felt that his throat was much better, and then continued to say into the phone, "I'm fine!" It's good to take a break. ”

A girl's cold shout was faintly heard on the mobile phone, "Ah~ Yun'er, you are really calling here in the corridor." Director Kim is going to announce something very important, hurry up..."

"Sister Sika, I'll go back." Yun'a's voice became quieter, and then it returned to normal, "Oppa, I have an urgent matter here to hang up." By the way, there is a half-day off on the weekend this week, so I'll bring them over then. I usually take good care of me, and you, as an older brother, have to entertain Xiexie and them well. ”

Listening to Yun'er's tone, Lee Jae-min knew that it was bad, she must have been thinking of playing tricks on herself, this method of black-bellied is very instructive, and she was about to say that it was okay to entertain her friends well, but she couldn't have the idea of playing tricks on herself, and before she could speak, she heard that Yuna had hung up the phone.

"Oppa, I'm giving you a chance to show off your cooking skills. Don't forget to contact the minister, otherwise the contract will be in vain. Okay, give me a call in the evening. Also, be sure to take good care of your body! Lee Jaemin looked at his phone funny, Yuna hung up the phone and immediately sent a text message, watching Yuna spell out the cute smiley face symbol after the text message, his heart warmed, this little girl!

Putting his phone in his pocket, Lee Jae-min sat down in the sling chair again, trying to recall that long dream in the afternoon. I only vaguely know that my identity seems to be a well-known composer of S.M Company, and my memory is like a blur of the veil, only the scene of the concert is still clear, and even every subtle change of her expression on the stage is vivid.

It suddenly occurred to him that there is an idiom in Chinese that "it is like a world away", which is exactly how haode describes his mood at this time. Is it a dream, but it feels so real. If it's true, it's only '07 this year, and that concert seems to be something that won't happen in the next few years, ...... It can't be!

Leaning back in his chair, he turned his head to look at the delicate two-story building behind him, where he now lived, and used a large part of his savings, so he had to find a part-time job with a very relaxed time while he was studying.

Lee Jae-min's adoptive father was a professor at Jeju University before his death, and after his retirement, he became an editor of an economic newspaper. Before his death, his adoptive father consulted him and divided the inheritance into two parts, one to give back to his adoptive father's alma mater in Jeju and one to leave to him.

In fact, after going to the United States, he was slowly influenced by the sense of independence there, in addition to large sums of money such as tuition fees, the usual expenses were earned by himself part-time. Half of his savings now come from his adoptive father's legacy, and the other half is from those years — when he was in college in the United States, he got a part-time job at a music company near his school, helping them produce all kinds of music.

The reason why he used a large amount of money to buy this house is not that he doesn't know how to plan his life, but he doesn't pay attention to anything else, but he has higher requirements for residence and daily diet, and another reason is that the profession of composition requires a large space to do a recording studio.

Although the geographical location here is a little off, because the area is relatively large and the price is very cheap, Lee Jae-min bought it. He believes that even if he doesn't have much money left, he can make a good life in the future with his own efforts.

Last month, he got a job as a trainee composer, and the pay was very good, and he had planned to sign a contract with S.M today, but that dream in the afternoon, or that future concert, made him hesitate.

In that dream future, he completed his current life plan and became a fairly successful composer, but so what. In the dream, he seems to be powerless to resist the pressure of many media, and even a random resolution of the high-level meeting of S.M company makes him have to comply with it, and hurt the people who care about him......

Time passed unconsciously, and when Lee Jae-min lay down on the hanging chair in contemplation, he found that the sky was already full of stars, and the night in Seoul was a bit biting cold, but his spirit was getting stronger and stronger, and his eyes seemed to burst into light.

Whether it was just a dream in the afternoon, or his future, it wasn't what he wanted. He doesn't want to be the person who can't even resist, he wants to let people control their own lives, at least so that the regrets in their dreams don't happen in reality......

A life choice? The dream that was suppressed in my heart a few years ago broke out of my shell. Perhaps, we have to do more and go further.

Lee Jae-min picked up the phone and put it on his forehead, and for a long time, he showed a determined expression on his face, got up and dialed a call: "Uncle Han, hello, I'm Lee Jaemin, I'm sorry, excuse me!" ”

Han Zhixiu is a close friend of his adoptive father in South Korea, and he is a relatively important news column PD of MBC TV.

"It's in Min. No interruptions, I'm idle at home now, haha. There was a silence on the phone, and then a neutral and very kind voice came, "I heard from your aunt that you came to visit me at home last month, and it just so happened that I had a shooting mission to go to Guangzhou." Okay? Are you used to living after returning home? ”

"Xiexie Uncle Han cares, and he's still used to it." Lee Jae-min replied respectfully, "Uncle Han, I want to shoot in the next episode of Yoo Jae-seok's infinite challenge, is there a way?" ”
