"Thanks for the hospitality, then I'll go first."

Ji Jingyuan was at the door of the restaurant, smiling goodbye to Kong Shengyan who was standing next to him.

"Where, I should be thankful that such a trendy artist as Jing Yuanxi didn't forget about me as a little actor, and was willing to come out to eat together."

Kong Shengyan stood next to her, carrying a blue bag, dressed in a light-colored casual dress, not wearing high heels, but wearing white flat shoes, the overall temperament looked very good, showing a young and lively feeling, the clothes are also some brand goods, the price is not cheap, it can be seen that the family conditions should be good.

She chuckled toothily at Ji Jingyuan, and as she looked at him, she ran a blow at her hair with her right hand.

"Everyone is a newcomer, don't worry too much about this, the conditions of Shengyan Xi are very good, you just need to wait for an opportunity."

Ji Jingyuan chuckled and shook his head, saying that he was just lucky. Then he smiled shyly: "And it's really an honor to have a beautiful Nuna to dinner." ”

Chi Jingyuan is also wearing casual equipment today, if the canvas shoes on his feet are replaced by a pair of slippers, it will make people think that he lives upstairs, just come down to have a casual meal.

"Hehehe......"

Kong Shengyan covered her mouth and laughed a few times, saw Chi Jingyuan's goodbye eyes, waved her hand at him, and asked tentatively, "Then, let's talk next time?" ”

"Inside."

Ji Jingyuan nodded, and then the two said goodbye with a smile.

After Ji Jingyuan watched Kong Seung-yeon's back disappear around the corner, he put on his mask and hat, and then walked out of the restaurant as well.

This hat is one of Chi Jingyuan's many favorites, a Pokémon co-branded baseball cap, with a wide-eyed duck in the center of the hat and a blank look on his face.

It looks like it gives people a sense of superiority in IQ, and the mood will become better.

Today is November 17th, and the hard practice for the special stage since the beginning of the month has come to an end in the past few days, because Team M has already flown to Xia Guowan to record the show yesterday because of the trip.

In addition to running some announcements, there is also Yahoo! Qimo Celebrity Entertainment did a series of programs for Team M, mainly to show the characteristics of each member, and to film some members' interactions and private performances.

The people of Team M are gone, and Team K alone can't practice anything, so they are much easier than the hard work they had some time ago.

However, I have been practicing for more than half a month, and now there is basically no problem with these stage performances.

They would have danced a few Cover Stage dances, but now they are learning and familiarizing themselves with the new choreography, and at the same time polishing some details for the stage effect, such as group dancing more neatly and more dynamically.

Trainees or artists after their debut usually don't just stare at one or two songs when they practice, they usually learn to dance some classic songs of their predecessors and some popular dances.

In addition to practicing more dances to increase their strength, there are many variety shows that also allow artists to perform dances of other groups, which also makes them need to learn a lot of songs and dances of other groups.

is a very popular song like "Incantation", Chi Jingyuan didn't know how many times he skipped it when he practiced before, and he was already familiar with it.

Not to mention "Incantation", he can dance "GEE".

While practicing this morning, Ji Jingyuan received a message from Kong Shengyan and asked him if he had time to have a meal together in the evening.

The last time the two were filming an advertisement together, they met and exchanged contact information, and during this time, they would occasionally text each other to say hello, and nothing else was said.

Suddenly received a message from her today, Chi Jingyuan happened to be idle for the past two days, so he simply agreed directly, and then he said goodbye just now.

The place to eat is very close to SM company, a restaurant with a very nice decoration and very fashionable style in Cheongdam-dong, which is less than 10 minutes walk from the company.

During the meal, she didn't say anything else, just chatted about some interesting things that happened recently, and the difficulties of filming some commercials, including the recent scolding by the director on the set again, and some embarrassing things that the agent sighed every day.

Kong Shengyan is quite cheerful, likes to laugh, has a good grasp of the atmosphere, expresses closeness, and does not have some awkward ambiguity while getting closer, which gives people a good feeling.

Chi Jingyuan now has a dating partner, so there is nothing else to do, just eat, make friends and appreciate the beauty by the way.

He also said some EXO things in a relaxed tone, such as the past when he was a marginal transparent person when he was on a TV show, and the staff couldn't even call their members by name.

Their EXO combination name is colloquially unpronounced 'E', so 'EXO' should be pronounced 'XO'.

However, so far, he has participated in so many program recordings, and he has never seen a few staff members who can pronounce their names correctly.

The two of them, who hadn't spoken a few words before the meal, became more familiar, and for Ji Jingyuan, Kong Shengyan was an independent individual, and her impression was no longer just 'Jiang Shiqi's friend'.

But that's the end of it, that is, in a knowing, somewhat familiar friendship.

Ji Jingyuan walked out of the restaurant and stood on the side of the street, the slightly cool temperature and the noisy sound he suddenly heard made him feel as if he had stepped into a new world, and the light from the various signboards around him was a little dazzling, and he couldn't help but squint his eyes.

Sweeping around, they set a time for dinner relatively late, and now it is even more late after eating, and the flow of people has decreased a lot.

At this point, it seems that the members have almost returned to the dormitory, and it will not take long to walk from here to EXO's dormitory, and it will take less than half an hour to get there.

However, he didn't really want to go back to the dormitory now, and after thinking about it for a while, Chi Jingyuan walked slowly along the road towards the north, that is, the direction of the company.

It was getting late, and there were not many pedestrians on the road, and some of the pedestrians he met from time to time would look at the pattern on the hat he was wearing, and more would look back with a casual look after passing sideways.

The figure and temperament are still more eye-catching at night.

The voices of people who kept echoing around and the sound of horns from time to time as cars speeding past made Chi Jingyuan feel a strong breath of life, and he felt that he had been holding back in the practice room for a long time, and he was a little unaccustomed to it.

He walked along the road, crossed the Olympic Boulevard, and after about ten minutes came to the observation walkway next to the Han River.

SM's Cheongdam-dong building is located close to the Han River, less than 200 meters away in a straight line, and I heard that there are many artists and trainees who like to come and relax when they are not working.

Chi Jingyuan had practiced with the members at night before, and he came a few times in his free time, but they were all a group of men, and some people were arguing that they didn't want to go back.

If the peers are replaced by beautiful female seniors, I don't know if anyone will say that they are bored.

This time, he was alone, with an appreciative eye, Chi Jingyuan stood in front of the railing of the walkway along the river, staring at the gorgeous river scenery on the opposite bank and the lights on the Seongsu Bridge in the distance for a long time.

"Ugh."

After a long time, I don't know what I thought of, Chi Jingyuan sighed lightly, took a step, lowered his head slightly, and walked slowly along the railing by the river.

There are few people on the riverside, and it will be scattered for a while before people occasionally pass by.

As he walked, suddenly a figure appeared in front of him in Chi Jingyuan's perspective, and he raised his eyes and swept over.

A girl with long hair was standing in front of the railing at this time, her hands folded together on the railing, her forehead resting on her arms, her head bowed and buried deep in her arms, the whole person looked a little rickety, and it looked like she could be blown away by a gust of wind at any time.

As if hearing footsteps and stopped, the girl turned her head sideways to look this way.

As soon as he saw this face, a name appeared in Chi Jingyuan's heart.

Bae Joo-hyun.

Compared with the last time we met, her face didn't seem to have improved much, except for the teasing that didn't go away, her lips were still a little dry, and her eyes were a lot redder than last time, and I didn't know if it was due to physical reasons or something else.

There was a touch of mist in her sad eyes, and she collided with Chi Jingyuan's gaze, which made Chi Jingyuan feel an indescribable sense of fragility.

After less than a month, in different places and different scenes, the two came to the same eye again.
