......

Cafe.

The girl, whose face had been obscured by her fisherman's hat, hurried open the door.

Before the waiter could greet her, she was already walking briskly towards the corner of the café.

"It's me late!"

"It's only been a few minutes," Cui Zhencheng pushed a cup of coffee in front of the girl before continuing to ask, "Reprimanded by the agent?" Miss Bae Su-chi?"

Pei Xiuzhi took off the fisherman's hat and put it on the corner of the table, revealing a beautiful face.

Faced with Cui Zhenzhen's half-joking and ridiculous inquiry, she couldn't help but laugh dryly, "How do you know......

Cui Zhencheng held his forehead with his hand, and said helplessly, "Nonsense, I'm not a singer, not an actor or a host, as soon as the reporter asked, you directly threw out his name, and JYP's people are not stupid......

Pei Xiuzhi pulled her hair behind her ears, picked up the coffee cup and took a sip, before she whispered, "When I said that last year, I didn't think they had any opinions."

Cui Zhencheng sneered, "You're still embarrassed to talk about this, it's good that Zhi'en is not here today, otherwise Gao Gao will tear down this café."

Although she was not present at the events of last year, which Pei Xiuzhi said, she gained the experience of being there in person during Li Zhien's dozens of "accusations" against Pei Xiuzhi later.

Last October, when Pei Xiuzhi was 20 years old and came of age, he was in China with his group ssA.

And Li Zhien at that time also happened to go to the capital to find Gu Heng.

So on the day of Pei Xiuzhi's birthday party, Li Zhien and Gu Heng both arrived at the scene.

There are no ups and downs in the birthday party itself.

It's just that at the end of the birthday party, in the quick question and answer session of the interview, when faced with the question "Is there a different ideal object after the age of twenty" asked by a media reporter, Pei Xiuzhi stretched out his hand and pointed at Gu Heng in the distance, and asked playfully

- "What do you think of Gu Heng's oppa?"

This short episode was truthfully put into the interview record and caused a lot of turmoil on the Korean Internet.

It's just that it is not her Pei Xiuzhi who is on the hot search on the website, but Lee Ji-eun.

Lee Ji-eun has a close relationship with Bae so-ji, which is known to most people.

So it's reasonable, the entry [iu: I treat you as a sister, but you want me to call you sister-in-law] stayed on the hot search all day.

And Li Zhien also blew up for a month because of this incident.

Pei Xiuzhi, who usually calls "Zhi'en Zhi'en", called "Zhi'en Oni" for a month, and was reluctantly let go.

Pei Xiuzhi held his chin and gently stirred the coffee cup with a stirring stick with one hand, "Isn't there a saying in Huaxia, if there are dates, there are no dates......

Cui Zhenzhen hesitated for a moment and said, "But you also know Oppa's attitude."

Although it was Li Zhien who was killed in last year's incident, Pei Xiuzhi also took advantage of this little joke to put his mind in the palm of his hand and tentatively handed it to Gu Heng.

Gu Heng's handling was simple, and he directly called Pei Xiuzhi's Abba and Mom with a phone call. ….

Then Pei Xiuzhi had one more oppa, and Gu Heng had one more sister.

So the one who was most completely injured became Li Zhien.

The sentence "How do you know that you recognize your sister, can't you recognize your younger brother more" that broke out in silence, not only made Lee Jong-hoon laugh for several months, but also asked Gu Heng.

Thinking of this, Pei Xiuzhi puffed out his mouth and said stubbornly, "Anyway, I have patience."

Cui Zhencheng sighed and persuaded, "You, let's concentrate on filming first, you are the first heroine of the movie in "Peach and Plum Blossom Song" this time, and you are still cooperating with Liu Chenglong's predecessors, and the company will definitely not let you come randomly."

Bae Su-chi-wo ......

She was caught in the middle, and she really didn't know who to help.

"I know," Pei Xiuzhi nodded, suddenly smiled brightly, and proposed, "How about traveling to the capital together after I finish in August?"

"You can ask oppa yourself first, I won't be a pathfinder for you......" Cui Zhenzhen saw Pei Xiuzhi's thoughts at a glance.

"Okay......

Taking out her phone from her bag, she was about to dial the number when a new call suddenly arrived.

"Gu Heng oppa?"

Pei Xiuzhi was stunned for a moment, and then pressed on.

「oppa？」

"yes, it's me."

"I was about to call and tell you~ After the movie is finished, how about I travel to China with the truth?"

「...... Whatever you want." It seems that it was because she pulled Cui Zhenzhen, but Gu Heng did not refuse after hesitating.

"Good!" Pei Xiuzhi's tone subconsciously brought a little cheerfulness.

"But there's one thing you did first."

"Uh-huh?"

"Cleared up the scandal."

"Huh? Oh......"

......

"Clearing up the scandal?"

Sitting in the passenger seat, listening to Gu Heng's phone call, Sunny smiled, "Do you think Pei Xiuzhi is not beautiful enough?" That's the first love of the people."

"I don't have that kind of heart for her, so why give her hope." Gu Heng looked at the road ahead and replied.

"It's only been the past few days that I've discovered that you're really irrational sometimes."

Gu Heng paused, and then said, "I'm not ruthless, but even if I reluctantly agree to her, there will be no good results, and when the time comes, it will make it difficult for her to get along with Zhi'en."

"You've got a good reason," Sunny shook his head, pointing, "but still ruthless."

Gu Heng no longer defended himself, concentrated on driving the car, and headed towards the airport.

Sunny leaned back in his seat and stretched, admiring the scenery along the way.

The temperature in the middle of summer is annoying, but it is also the time of year when the vegetation is at its most lush and green.

"When will you come back to Seoul?" Sunny asked casually.

"It's hard to say, but it should be a trip before the end of the year, and the group's investment in South Korea should always go over and see the progress."

"At the end of the year? That's still half a year." Sunny's eyebrows furrowed, and he stopped talking.

"It depends," Gu Heng remembered the incident that Li Ran had reported to him a few days ago, but he shook his head and chuckled, "What, if I go to Seoul, Miss Li Chunhua will take the time to pick up the wind and wash the dust for me?"

"It's a beautiful thought." Sunny snorted.

Between the two small talk, the sedan sped down the road.

......

The lobby of the capital airport is still as bustling and noisy as when Sunny came a few days ago. ….

Gu Heng helped her pull the suitcase and came to the check-in check-in counter.

"Bring these pastries." While Sunny was busy rummaging through her documents, Gu Heng handed the bag in her hand to her.

"So many pastries?" Sunny, who had finally found the ID used for check-in, raised his eyes and raised his eyebrows.

"It's not much, just some special pastries from here."

Gu Heng helped her put the pastries into the box, and continued to explain,

"You can also give it to ...... Yoo-ri, Taeyeon, Yoo-ri came here last time to promote the new drama, and I was too busy to entertain her, even if it is to express my apologies."

"Alright," Sunny nodded slightly, "I'll relay your greetings."

"Okay."

Check-in was completed quickly.

Gu Heng looked at Sunny, "Then I wish you a safe journey."

"OK, then I'll go."

Sunny waved at him and headed towards the security checkpoint, turning back after a few steps.

"Huh?"

"Are you really just rejecting Pei Xiuzhi for those reasons?" Sunny asked earnestly.

"You don't have to answer me, just answer yourself."

......

Incheon Airport.

Flights take off and land non-stop.

Although it was already late in the evening, the airport terminal was still bustling with people.

"Sunny Ernie! Over here!" Kim Ha Na stood on tiptoe outside the passage and beckoned.

Sunny tucked his chin and his sunglasses slipped off the bridge of his nose half an inch, allowing him to see Kim Ha Na's position.

Jin Ha Na also walked up quickly, took the suitcase from her hand, and said with a smile, "Ernie, welcome back~"

"Thank you, Hana." Sunny stroked the little girl's hair, "Let's go."

Although her trip to Huaxia this time is not a public itinerary, it will still be a little troublesome if she is accidentally recognized here.

Outside the terminal, she got into the back seat of the nanny car while Kim Ha Na put her suitcase in the trunk.

Looking at Lin Yun'er, who was sitting quietly in the back seat, a smile appeared on Sunny's face,

"It's rare that our Yun'er has such a conscience for Ernie and came to pick me up in person!"

It's just that for her affirmation, Lin Yuner didn't feel flattered.

Glancing at Sunny, she spoke, "Didn't you send me a message last night asking if I had time to pick you up?"

Sunny sat down next to her and chuckled, "Didn't you say you could come?" Ernie will never force us to allow a child."

Lin Yun'er puffed out her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but when she saw Kim Ha Na get into the car, she swallowed the words back.

"Sunny Ernie, where are you going?" Kim Ha Na asked, leaning on the steering wheel.

"Let's go back to the dormitory." Sunny thought for a moment and replied briefly.

The group has grown to the present, and many of the members have their own residences outside, including herself.

But the rooms in the dormitory are still there.

"Roger!" Kim Ha Na stepped on the accelerator and the nanny car drove away from Incheon Airport.

"Sunny Ernie is having fun in Huaxia these days? Why haven't I seen you post ins?" Kim Ha Na asked curiously as she glanced at Sunny in the rearview mirror.

Hearing this, Sunny blinked and said, "Well, I'm still quite happy, and I have taken revenge for slaughtering a certain big dog several times." ….

"Revenge? Did this friend offend Ernie?" Kim Ha Na laughed twice at her statement.

"Offended?"

Glancing at someone beside him who was frowning slightly, Sunny sighed, "Sort of, if you really want to count it, it should be more serious than offending."

Lin Yuna moved her gaze out the window.

Kim Ha Na seemed to suddenly realize that there was some subtle atmosphere between the two of them in the back seat, and closed her mouth tightly.

Twenty minutes later, the nanny van arrived at the Girls' Generation dormitory.

"Ernie, do you need my help moving it up?"

"No, there's an elevator."

"Mm-huh, okay~" Handing the suitcase to Sunny, Kim Ha Na was about to say goodbye, but suddenly remembered something, and said to Lin Yun'er, "Yun'er Oni, the script of the audition invitation I gave you a few days ago is still ......"

"I'm almost done, today...... I'll get back to you tomorrow."

"Okay, Ernie bye-bye~"

......

Pushing open the door of the dormitory, Sunny didn't bother to change his shoes, and couldn't wait to trot into the living room and lie down on the sofa.

"It's still comfortable to come back, the house is the greatest blessing in the world

Blessed ......"

Lin Yun'er silently walked in with her suitcase and closed the door.

"Ernie, will you put your suitcase in your bedroom?"

"Don't need it yet, just put it there," Sunny beckoned to Lin Yun'er and moved her seat, "Come here."

When Lin Yuna sat down, she asked, "What about the audition invitation that Hana just said?"

Lin Yun'er pursed her lips, "It's a normal audition invitation."

"You're going to pick up the ride again?"

「...... I haven't figured it out yet." Lin Yun'er was noncommittal.

Sunny sat up from the couch, "Yuna...... Didn't you hear his words?"

Lin Yun'er turned her face.

"Ernie."

"Huh?"

"Why bother him? Your words bothered him, didn't he?" She said softly.

Sunny is speechless and funny,

"Since you don't take his word seriously, what do you care about me and him? It's just that I'm going to pull him in a relationship tomorrow, and it's okay with you, right?"

Lin Yun'er was dumbfounded for a while.

Seeing that she was speechless, Sunny didn't continue.

Getting up, she laid her suitcase flat on the floor in the living room, opened it, and took out a whole bag of six or seven boxes of pastries from it.

Sunny stacked the boxes of pastries on the table, "This guy bought so many in one go, he's dead."

Lin Yun'er, who was silently thinking about something, was raised by her words.

The exterior decoration of these boxes of pastries is not exquisite, even the plastic boxes are transparent.

Probably only when giving gifts to close friends will it be so informal.

Lin Yun'er's gaze fell on it, but she was stunned for a moment.

"Ernie." Lin Yun'er suddenly spoke.

"Huh? What's wrong?" Sunny was planning how to distribute the pastries, turning his face to look at her.

"These pastries, are ......" Lin Yun'er's palm, quietly curled up and clenched in a place where Sunny couldn't see, "He gave it?"

"Or else?" Sunny simply opened one of the boxes and took two pieces out of it, "Oh, try the taste?"

Lin Yun'er let go of her hand and took a piece stiffly, her tone was a little strange, "Did he say anything when he gave you these pastries?" ….

"Ho," Sunny looked at Lin Yun'er in some surprise, "You're starting to care."

She threw the pastry into her mouth and said with a smile, "But this pastry is nothing special, it's just a supple, and he also said that he didn't entertain Yuli when he went to the capital to do publicity last time, which can be regarded as an apology."

"Oh....."

"This tastes good, why is it still a little familiar to eat, do you know this pastry?"

「...... Glutinous rice cake."

Staring at the purple and white, small and cute pastries in her palm, Lin Yun'er lowered her eyes slightly and gave an answer in her heart, and then said softly,

"The last time Olioni went there to promote, it was last year."

"What do you mean?" Sunny was stunned.

Lin Yun'er didn't answer, but said cautiously, "Sunny Ernie, can you give me a box?"

"Of course......" Looking at Lin Yun'er's appearance at this time, Sunny felt a little worried in his heart, "You're okay, Yun'a?"

"Ani, I'm fine." Lin Yun'er shook her head in denial and took a box of pastries in her hand.

Sunny was still a little relieved, and was about to say something, but Lin Yuna said,

"Ernie, in fact, the script for the audition invitation is a Chinese movie......

Sunny was slightly stunned.

"I didn't disobey him."

Lin Yun'er also put the glutinous rice cold cake in her palm into the box, "It's just ......"

......

It's just that those ordinary moments we have experienced together are all after we are separated,

Suddenly it became so dazzling.

......

.1. Glutinous rice cake is an apology gift from Gu Heng to Run'e during the blind date.

.2. Happy Winter Solstice, book friends! Remember to eat dumplings!.

Ah, the sea
