Chapter 51: Advance Blessings

"You just had such a good time?"

Sunny sat on a stool, leaning on the table next to him, and looked very leisurely, holding a bag of small biscuits in his hand and feeding them to his mouth continuously, while chewing, he looked up at Chi Jingyuan and said with a smile: "And I've been paying attention for a long time, many female idols around me have glanced at you from time to time, so popular?" ”

Girls' Generation has already put on tonight's stage costume at this time, a pink fitted suit, and the handsome style has a little sweet feeling, which is quite eye-catching.

"Of course, I'm Chi Jingyuan."

Ji Jingyuan shook his head as a matter of course, and then made a joke curiously: "Nuna told me who has been peeking at me, which makes me happy." ”

"What? After knowing who it is, you have a clear goal, and then you can launch an attack on the fisherman's house? ”

Glancing at him, Sunny sneered, "How many more have you dated during this time?" ”

She still knows a thing or two about Chi Jingyuan's character, if she doesn't have an emotional foundation or really likes it, she won't take this kind of thing too seriously.

"How is that possible!"

Ji Jingyuan looked innocent as if he had been framed, and the acting skills in his eyebrows and eyes were simply amazing.

After that, he put on a very serious appearance, pursed his lips as if he was being interviewed, nodded and said: "I have only debuted for a few years now, and the company is relatively strict, and the time is very tight, so I must still focus on my career at present......

"Vomit ......" Before Sunny could finish listening, he pretended to vomit and almost squirted out of the cookies he had just eaten.

She quickly covered her mouth, looked at Chi Jingyuan with a frown, the two looked at each other for two seconds, one innocent and the other disgusted, and then laughed together.

"I haven't seen you for so long, Nuna, are you finally willing to come back from Neon?"

Ji Jingyuan pulled a stool from the side and sat down, and at the same time took a bag of unopened cookies handed over by Sunny, opened it and ate one while chewing.

It's crunchy and sweet, and it tastes pretty good.

After chewing twice, Chi Jingyuan picked up the bag and looked at the brand and name on the package.

"Who told you I haven't been back in a long time?" Sunny gave him a flick of his face.

"Taeyeon Nuna, didn't you say you stayed in Neon because you didn't bother to fly back and forth?"

"I'm too lazy to fly back and forth with them anymore because I have to come back a few times a week, and I have to host my radio show."

"Then you won't call me out for dinner when you come back? We're a combination. ”

"I leave every time I finish recording a show, and you EXO are so busy with both returns and concerts during that time, so I don't want to cause trouble."

Sunny may have eaten too many cookies and was a little thirsty, so he picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip, then stood up again and naturally took it out of the plastic bag next to the table and handed it to Ji Jingyuan.

As soon as she returned to the stool, she seemed to suddenly remember something, and looked at Chi Jingyuan: "No, don't you know that I have been hosting the radio?"

"What radio?"

"'sunny's FM' is a well-known radio show, and it's good to listen to." Hearing his reply, Sunny frowned, and looked over with a hint of murderous intent: "Wow, you really don't know my radio station at all, haven't heard a single episode?" ”

Because of the good taste, Chi Jingyuan stuffed several small biscuits into his mouth in a row, and when he was questioned, he looked at each other with a little bulging cheeks, and replied naturally after blinking: "Who still listens to the radio in what age, and I don't drive." ”

Because there was something in his mouth, his voice changed a little, and after he finished speaking, he quickly took a few quick bites and swallowed the biscuit.

"And you EXO still have so many radio shows?" Sunny laughed angrily.

"What can I do about it?"

Chi Jingyuan took a sip of water and said casually: "And the radio program recording is so easy, find a place where the camera doesn't shoot much, just let it go for a while, and the time will pass after a few perfunctory words." ”

"Assi, you're really ......" Sunny looked at him speechlessly, feeling that the meaningful radio program in his mind had been tarnished by this person.

The two chatted and chatted, and a few members of Girls' Generation who had just gone out came back, and as soon as they came, they saw Ji Kyung-won and Sunny sitting there chatting, and they all immediately smiled and surrounded them.

"Kyungwon, ......" Taeyeon saw that his eyes lit up, and he screamed after a few meters, and after walking quickly, his hands were compared to a gun posture, and he shot him hard: "Absolutely amazing!" ”

Then he reached out and tapped his head, leaning forward and grinning.

She is obviously one of the most eye-catching actions in the direct shooting of cos Chi Jingyuan's "dope", and it seems that these song sisters have also seen his explosive direct shooting in the past few days.

"Hahaha......" Hwang Mi-young and Kim Hyo-yeon also followed suit, and several members next to them also laughed.

"You're really good enough, a straight shot is so hot."

Kim Taeyeon walked over and directly reached out and grabbed a small biscuit from Ji Kyung-won's hand, stuffed it into his mouth and said while eating: "Now the company has also begun to send people to shoot directly during our more important stage performances, and I heard that other brokerage companies have also started ......"

"Leading the way, Yuanxi."

In the face of the appreciative and ridiculous eyes of several sisters, Chi Jingyuan did not speak very calmly, swallowed the biscuit in his mouth and chuckled, shook his head vigorously and shook the bangs in front of his forehead, and finally blew the wind on it to blow the bangs lightly, and the expression on his face seemed to say, 'Isn't this a normal thing'.

"Ah, you, haha......" Seeing his scared look, Kim Taeyeon couldn't help laughing, and together with Sunny, who had been patient for a long time next to him, he slapped Ji Kyung-won on the back a few times, and several people made a mess, which really attracted a lot of attention from the side.

The dream concert was held as scheduled in the evening, and EXO was no longer as young as when he first debuted, and I don't know how many platter concerts of this scale I have participated in.

I was quite excited when I participated in it before, but after they held their own solo concert, they didn't feel so much, and the platter concert still looked a lot inferior in comparison, whether it was the atmosphere or anything else, to some extent, it was a bit like a singing show with a large audience.

EXO performed a 12-member version of "overdose" in the penultimate appearance, and successfully completed the stage amid the cheers of the audience, which can be regarded as pushing the atmosphere of this dream concert to the highest position.

At the end of the song, all the artists came to the stage to sing the song for the World Cup promotion, and during the chorus, Ji Jingyuan stood at the forefront of the stage and fished behind his own members, while he also looked back a few times.

Looking at the rows of artists in the back, the sight was completely blocked at the back, and the cameras couldn't see the appearance of several groups of idols who kept padding their feet to rub the lens, he couldn't help but feel quite a little in his heart.

They all came from that time......

As the fireworks rose into the sky, this dream concert was completed amid the screams.

………

In the practice room, everyone in EXO sat there operating their mobile phones, and at the same time, they were very lively and communicating.

At their meeting in the morning, the company announced that all of EXO's social media accounts would be managed and operated by the members themselves, and that the company would only be responsible for operating the official accounts of the EXO.

At the moment, EXO's main social media is ins.

This is good news for many people, especially for the few social influencers who are very active in the members and like to soak in SNS every day, and they immediately smile when they hear it.

However, the company has also made business requirements for each member, clarifying how many pictures each person should upload in a month, and interacting with fans more.

After all, SNS is also a great platform to express yourself, communicate with fans, stay active and increase popularity, and you can't run it yourself and don't bother to leave it alone.

At the same time, the company's people and agents all emphasized that they must not post any content on SNS that involves sensitive topics.

This explanation is very serious, and SM is very aware of the impact and harm of this thing.

The members also knew very well and nodded earnestly in agreement.

After coming back, everyone began to take over their own ins accounts that were previously operated by the official, and they changed their names and uploaded pictures, and they had a lot of fun watching the number of fans and messages grow.

However, Chi Jingyuan put it away after a while and felt that it was not interesting, and he still preferred to watch it compared to sending it himself.

"Jingyuan, what is your account ID called? Have you followed me? ”

Wu Shixun manipulated his mobile phone, took the time to turn his head and looked at Ji Jingyuan, who was playing a game next to him, and asked.

"'thY.', search for yourself."

Chi Jingyuan was nervously fighting the boss, dodging the boss's killer blow one by one, and smiled with satisfaction before raising his head and replying.

"thY., what's a strange name?"

While typing these letters in a low voice, Wu Shixun pursed his lips.

Ji Jingyuan was busy and didn't bother to pay attention to him.

"Found...... I'm following you, remember to follow back. ”

After saying that, Wu Shixun clicked on Chi Jingyuan's ins and looked at it, and couldn't help but laugh within two seconds: "You have posted a photo until now and only half of your face has been revealed......"

"Bang ......"

Chi Jingyuan suddenly smashed the ground with his fist with hatred, it was just a small mistake, his character was swept away by the boss in seconds, and was carried back to the village by the cat car.

"Huh......" He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, adjusted his mentality, and then opened his eyes helplessly and looked at the few members who were aiming at him, and closed the game console archive and put it aside: "'thY.' is the abbreviation of theyuan., I got it up casually yesterday, and I will .........change it in two days."

"And to say that my reputation is strange, isn't it better than your xlkslb_cc or something, a series of English letters that you can't understand?"

"You just typed it on the keyboard."

Chi Jingyuan is not very interested in operating ins, and after getting it yesterday, he looked at it, so he casually gave a name and changed the previous 'EXO_Yuan' standard ID to show that he was operating it himself from now on, and at the same time took a selfie and uploaded it and didn't care about it.

He didn't wear much makeup in this photo, and only half of his face was from the bridge of his nose upwards, and he added a scissor hand that could only be seen halfway, which was perfunctory enough.

"My account has a representative meaning in English.,It's the initials of our EXO twelve people.,There's your name in it.,A lot of meals say that my ID is very interesting......"

After saying a word, Wu Shixun suddenly sighed again: "Ah Xi, your fans are already more than five million, why am I only one and a half million......"

"Also, why is there so much like and comment on this perfunctory half-face photo of yours?"

The more he looked at Chi Jingyuan's ins data, the more unhappy he became, he carefully took a few photos yesterday and uploaded them, and interacted with the fans who left messages several times, and the person next to him fiddled with it at will, and he didn't even look for the angle and took a ridiculous photo to upload it, and then he ran to play the game and didn't care about it at all, and now he has received so many likes from the meal......

Why?

Ji Jingyuan faced the resentment and jealousy of several members next to Wu Shixun, looked left and right, licked his lips, and winked at them:

"Probably because of ...... I'm good-looking? ”

"Die!"

…………

After the dream concert on the 7th ended, EXO began to run the itinerary, because of the previous concert, many of their things and invitations were postponed to the past few days, and the daily activities were full for a while.

In addition to the team itinerary, there is also a considerable amount of time spent on the personal resources that many members have also carried out one after another, such as Kim Jun-myun and Byun Bak-hyun's "Popular Ballads" MC, Byun Bak-hyun's own musical, Park Chan-yeol's "roommate", Kim Jong-in's fashion magazine shooting, etc.

It is worth mentioning that Kim Jong-in is very popular with the editors of some fashion magazines in the peninsula, and he is second only to Ji Kyung-won in this area in EXO, and has taken photos for several magazines since his debut.

Then it was all about the filming of the TV series.

Du Junxiu finally received the resources of the TV series, and he is also very serious and hard-working, although he is not the protagonist, he has been reading the script and studying in his spare time, and he often asks Chi Jingyuan for acting methods and skills, and he has been a little stunned recently.

The TV series he took over is called "It's Okay, It's Love", which is an SBS Shuimu drama cooperated by Zhao Yincheng and Kong Xiaozhen, both in terms of actor configuration and crew director and screenwriter, and the role of Du Junxiu is a scene of three men and four men, which is already very good for him who starred in a TV series for the first time.

When the show was casting, most of the other members of EXO except Ji Kyung-won went to auditions, and in the end, Du Hyun-so was selected and successfully took the first step towards the actor's route.

The reason why Ji Jingyuan didn't go is because he is already recognized as a representative actor of the young generation, this role of the third male and the fourth male does not match his current identity, and the age gap set by the protagonist is too big, and he can't take Zhao Yincheng's position, even if SBS launched an invitation, SM didn't care and didn't let him go.

If he goes, what will the other members try on?

Chi Jingyuan also read the script of this drama, and he feels pretty good, although there is less potential for a big hit, the ratings should not be very low.

However, filming a TV series in the concert schedule is really a very torturous thing, first of all, you have to negotiate the time with the crew, Du Junxiu has to go back and forth between the crew and Xia China, and the sleep time is less than a few hours a day, which can be regarded as really open-minded.

I don't know what other companies are like, for the biggest cash cow SM at present, it never refuses EXO members to receive personal resources, on the contrary, it will take the initiative to provide a lot of personal resources to help members develop.

In the past few days, Chi Jingyuan has been focusing on the shooting and promotion platform on the advertisement, because of his own appearance and temperament, family reasons, and the popularity of the TV series, especially because of the TV series "The Inheritors", his personal advertising resources are at the forefront of the entire SM company, and the entire EXO does not add up to as many advertisements as he alone.

Many advertisements are not only filmed, but also have many follow-up responsibilities after filming, such as cooperating with publicity, giving products a platform, etc

In the past few days, he has been busy with the backlog of notices before.

In addition to reiterating the legitimacy and reasonableness of his escape, he also spread a lot of news on many SNS through marketing accounts, and uploaded a lot of photos of him being excluded and isolated to prove himself.

It's just that Chi Jingyuan also took the time to take a look at those photos, most of them were some of the other members of him chatting together during the trip, and the back photos of him sitting alone next to him, plus the accompanying text, looked quite bleak.

However, as an expert, Ji Jingyuan knows very well that this kind of photo is too common, and he himself often makes a game console next to him alone during his trip, and the other members are the same, and many times they are playing with their mobile phones or thinking about things next to them, and just the photos of EXO can find a lot of this kind of 'crowding out pictures'.

Although this kind of picture taken out of context is ridiculous when you think about it, there are really a group of Wu's fans who believe it and begin to change their positions to speak for him on the Internet, making various statements in support of him.

It's just that the photos alone are really not too convincing, and I don't know if Wu Saike said so many amazing reasons to attract attention when he sued, whether there are really other tricks in his hands.

After a few days, the popularity of this matter on the peninsula is slowly decreasing, and the attention of other passers-by has become less than BTS fans, after all, BTS is now a second- and third-tier combination, although Wu is a popular member, it is not high, and bighit is only a small company.

But Chi Jingyuan found that Xia Guo's popularity was still quite high on the mainland scarf, and all kinds of revelation stickers, clarification stickers, whitewashing stickers, support stickers, and insulting stickers emerged in endlessly, which made him relish.

It's been made into a wonderful soap opera.

Under all kinds of disturbances, it was June 12th.

The temperature in the past two days has obviously been much higher, and it is estimated that it has reached 30 degrees today, and the sun is hanging in the sky and scorching the ground, which makes people feel very hot, and it is the afternoon time and there are not many pedestrians on the nearby roads.

Dressed in white and blue fat short-sleeved shorts and sneakers, carrying a shoulder bag, a mask and a Dolemon baseball cap and other camouflage suits, Ji Jingyuan stood in the shade of the alleyway near the JYP building, and sent a message on his mobile phone.

After waiting for about ten minutes, Zhou Ziyu appeared in Chi Jingyuan's field of vision, she walked briskly from the direction of the JYP building, and when she saw Chi Jingyuan's figure, she smiled on her face, sped up her speed and trotted over with two legs.

She was wearing a black T-shirt and sweatpants, and the T-shirt was painted with a smiling picture of a baby bear, which was childish.

Her hair was untied, and it was quite smooth on both sides of her head, but as she ran, the bumps along the way became messy.

Zhou Ziyu ran to Chi Jingyuan, first smiled at him, and then quickly lowered his head to tidy up the tips of his hair that were messed up with a slight gasp.

She rushed to the company after school at noon, and has been practicing dance in the practice room after taking a vocal lesson, and when she was resting just now, she suddenly received a message from Chi Jingyuan asking if she was free in the company, she was stunned for a moment and quickly replied.

Then the mood became a little anxious.

Although a few messages will be sent every few days, Zhou Ziyu has not met Chi Jingyuan in reality since the last concert.

At that time, she rejected Kong Xue's two friends' proposal to contact Chi Jingyuan to go backstage, but in fact, she really wanted to get closer, because the shock of watching the performance at that time was really unforgettable.

To this day, this feeling still comes to mind from time to time.

After waiting for more than 20 minutes, she received a message from Chi Jingyuan, and after saying a word to her friend, she hurriedly ran over, feeling a little happy and looking forward to it along the way.

"Why are you running in such a hurry?"

Chi Jingyuan looked at her like this, glanced at her and said angrily, and then took the shoulder bag in front of him, unzipped it, took out a gift box and handed it to Zhou Ziyu: "That." ”

This is a wrapped gift box, which does not look very large, and the black wrapping paper is neatly wrapped with pink ribbons.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦β€

Zhou Ziyu's expression changed slightly, and after being dull for a second, he took it with a happy face, looked at it carefully, and looked up at Chi Jingyuan with a deliberately puzzled look: "Why did you give me a gift?" ”

"Isn't your birthday June 14? Am I mistaken? Ji Jingyuan looked at her with a frown.

"How do you know my birthday is June 14th?"

With his hands around and the gift box on his chest, Zhou Ziyu looked at Chi Jingyuan, his big eyes blinked, and Tong Kong's expression was a little inexplicable.

"Didn't you mention it once when we chatted last year, and I wrote it down at the time......"

Chi Jingyuan pursed his lips, and then looked at Zhou Ziyu with contempt, as if he was looking at a fool: "And what are you pretending to be there?" Every few text messages sent in the past two days have to mention the date of June 14th...... Are you implying this? Ziyu xi, you're already making this clear, okay? Can you not be so naΓ―ve, when I'm an idiot. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Poof...... Hey, hey, hey......" Zhou Ziyu pursed his lips and held it for a while, his whole face was stiff, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, and finally he couldn't help laughing.

Her eyes are crooked, her smiling mouth is open to reveal neat little white teeth, although she looks a little silly, her whole face is obviously overflowing with happy emotions, and her face has both joy and a little embarrassment that her tricks have been ruthlessly exposed.

The hair that had just been tidied up because of running, and at this time, a few dull hairs unconsciously rose on his head, combined with the pure smile, which made Zhou Ziyu's whole person look very vivid.

"That, I'm not available on June 14th, we have a concert in Xia Guojiang City that day, and it is estimated that it will be the fifteenth or sixteenth when I come back, and the gift will be given to you in advance."

Ji Jingyuan couldn't help laughing when he looked at her happy appearance, shook his head and explained.

"Thank you, Jing Yuan Xi!" Zhou Ziyu smiled sweetly.

"Okay, I'll leave first when the gift arrives, you go back quickly, be careful of being caught by the teacher." Chi Jingyuan didn't mean to talk much, and said goodbye after the gift was handed over to her.

"Ah, are you leaving so soon?"

Zhou Ziyu smiled when he heard this, and said a little anxiously: "Why don't you ...... Why don't I treat you to a drink? ”

"No need, our plane at night flies to Xia Guo, I'll wait a minute, there's an advertising case to run, I took the time to walk over, and the agent is still waiting for me to ......"

Ji Jingyuan shook his hand, smiled at her, and turned around and walked in the direction of SM after saying goodbye.

Looking at the back of Chi Jingyuan, who left cleanly, Zhou Ziyu didn't react a little, and opened his mouth to say something, such as 'goodbye' and 'come on'.

It's just that before she could think of what to say, Chi Jingyuan, who walked out of three or four meters, suddenly turned around, blinked at her and shook her hand, and said with a smile: "By the way, I almost forgot to say it...... Happy birthday, it shouldn't matter if it's two days in advance. ”

"Let's go first."

Without waiting for Zhou Ziyu to respond, he turned around again, and while walking forward, he waved his hand casually to the back, and his pace gradually accelerated.

Until the end, Zhou Ziyu didn't think about what to say, just held the gift tightly, stood in the shade of the tree and pursed his lips, flashing big eyes and staring at the back of Chi Jingyuan leaving, until the other party disappeared around the corner.
