Chapter Eighty-Seven: Yes, It Must Be
"How do I hear that you seem to have a few, do you want to count them again?"
Seeing that Hirai Tao's counting is a little unreliable, a number just now seems to have been counted two or three times, and Najing Nan looked at the front and said with some concern.
"I've counted it so many times, I'll count you."
After counting several times, Hirai Tao glanced at her angrily, stood back and snorted softly: "It's not that I'm here to see my boyfriend, mina, you can count it yourself if you want to do so." β
Mingjingnan's momentum was a little weak, and his eyes looked ahead, but he still stubbornly whispered: "Obviously, you said you were coming......
"......" Hirai Tao opened her mouth slightly, opened her eyes in disbelief, looked at Mingjing Nan in front of her, stared at her for a few seconds before nodding stiffly, and gave up on herself: "Okay, I have to pull you to come, it has nothing to do with you, in fact, you don't want to come at all......"
Although he has known each other for less than a year, he can be regarded as knowing Mingjing Nan, a trainee sister of the same nationality, who gets along every day.
I used to think that she looked very gentle and weak, and her voice was soft and a little hoarse, but after getting to know him, I found that he was actually a person with his own ideas and opinions.
Then I slowly found out that she was also quite strong, obviously her family was very good, but she worked hard and could endure hardships for her dreams and goals, and when she first came, she was very tired and hard to practice every day, and the surrounding environment was also very unfamiliar, but Mingjing Nan was able to grit her teeth and persist until today.
Later, after getting acquainted with it, I found some of her hidden attributes, such as some likes stinky beauty, and usually a little sullen, although there is no performance on the surface, but the inner activities and feelings are very rich.
Today, I found out that this sister is still a little hard-mouthed.
Momo Hirai was a little speechless.
Obviously, Mingjing Nan has said it several times in front of him in the past two days after seeing the matter of Chi Jingyuan's ratings convention, and he has almost made it clear in and out of his words, and he is a little annoyed to listen to it, so he casually said, "Then let's get up early that day and go together." As soon as she finished speaking, Mingjing Nan immediately agreed to forget it, and now it actually became that she wanted to come?
Forget it, in fact, she really wants to come.
β¦β¦
"Thank you very much for your love and support for me and our crew of "Unborn", I feel really happy to see so many viewers so early."
"I hope everyone will be lighter, after all, there are 100 people...... I'll have to go back to filming later. β
"I don't know if the fried chicken and coffee we bought are to your liking...... Anyway, I tasted it and thought it was quite delicious. β
"Hahaha......"
After packing the things he bought and putting them neatly on the table at the back, after preparing for a while, Chi Jingyuan stood on the small stage with the microphone, and made a simple opening remark.
It's the first time to complete the ratings convention, but this kind of occasion is not much pressure for Ji Jingyuan, he has experienced this kind of scene too many times in the more than two years since his debut, even if he is stared at by so many people, he doesn't feel uncomfortable in his heart.
After saying a few words, the convention was officially completed, Chi Jingyuan stood on the small stage, and the staff had come to the front of the queue and let people go one by one.
At the first in line was a little girl with a ponytail, who looked like she was not very old, she was fifteen or sixteen years old, and she was obviously still a student, and Chi Jingyuan felt that she was a familiar face at first glance.
He had already met this fan several times when he was working at Seoul Plaza, and often came to squat at the door early in the morning.
Today I can be the first in line this time, and I don't know how early she came.
casually glanced at it, and found that the four or five people in front of him were all old fans who often came to Seoul Plaza to squat at him, and they were all loyal fans who were not very old, or had more leisure and money in their spare time.
In fact, after seeing Ji Jingyuan so many times, these fans will not be as excited as ordinary meals, just because of the love and support for Ji Jingyuan in their hearts, they are driven to participate in all idol-related activities.
Chi Jingyuan didn't put on much makeup on his face today, it looked very natural, wearing a standard suit and a dark blue tie, completely dressed as a white-collar worker in the workplace, and the logo figure completely supported the upright suit, and the appearance looked no different from Zhang Kelai in the play, but the temperament was a little different.
Even though there are many office workers around who are wearing similar clothes, he is still the most conspicuous one.
"Thank you for your support, Consanmida ......"
Ji Jingyuan slapped his hands with the first girl, took the fried chicken and coffee handed over by Park Jae-hyun next to him and handed it to her personally.
After a brief smile and a casual hello and chatting for a few words, he changed to the next person, and a fan was almost less than a minute, forty or fifty seconds throughout the whole process.
It's also a ratings convention, and it's not a paid fan meeting or anything like that, you don't have to say too much and don't have to be so solemn, and if the 100 rankings are too long for each person, the whole event will take too long, not only delaying others from going to work, but also making him rush back to the crew to film after a while.
After the few old fans at the forefront of the team, it was finally the turn of a woman in her thirties who was dressed as a white-collar worker, and she was obviously much more mature than the student fans in front of her.
""Unborn" is really good, and Jing Yuanxi's performance is also very good."
βfightingοΌβ
Although he was very happy after seeing Chi Jingyuan, he was not too excited, he smiled softly and high-fived him, said some words of support and encouragement, and expressed his love for "Unborn" and Zhang Kelai.
This kind of mature and rational powder of about thirty generations brings Chi Jingyuan a completely different feeling from the student fans of ten generations, although they all have the same support for themselves, but one is more restrained and firm, and the other is flamboyant and loyal.
Either way, being supported by his fans will make him feel happy and happy.
In the interval between the substitutions, Chi Jingyuan glanced at it, and the white-collar workers wearing workplace uniforms in the neat team accounted for about three or four percent, which was already a large proportion.
Chi Jingyuan's choice to star in the drama "Unborn" is really important in retrospect, after four episodes of the TV series ratings continue to rise, the TV series is becoming more and more popular, and Ji Jingyuan, as the leading actor, is one of the most profitable, especially his acting skills in the first few episodes have given many viewers a lot of shock, and they have lamented that his progress is too great.
In addition, the biggest advantage is that Chi Jingyuan is in the twenties, and the popularity and favorability of the white-collar class in the thirties and thirties have greatly increased, which has made up for his idol shortcomings.
As one of the main classes of society, white-collar workers in the workplace have passed the age of chasing stars, and it is very difficult to gain their favor and support, but the drama "Unborn" has unexpectedly been liked by many white-collar workers in the peninsula, and even with Chi Jingyuan, he has become a young actor that they like and agree with very much.
As fans high-fived one by one, portions of food were handed out, and although the queue in front of them was still long and endless, the statistics from Park Jae-hyun's side and the few fried chicken coffee remaining on the table showed that the 100 places were about to be completed.
There are a lot of people, but it's not very tiring to just give a high-five and say a few words, and in the face of these fans who support him, Chi Jingyuan showed a sunny smile and an excellent state.
A girl who quickly walked in front of him made Ji Jingyuan stunned for a second, because this person made him feel a little familiar.
On the surface, he was silent, he thought about it quickly in his heart, and soon matched the face he remembered when he went to the club with Pei Xiuzhi.
She is one of the three female trainees who went to the club with Lee Jun-ho.
And he seems to have seen this girl's stage in last year's trainee showcase, but he was not very impressed.
I didn't expect her to come to today's event, shouldn't a neon trainee still be her own meal?
Looking at this girl who was smiling a little embarrassed and covering her forehead, Chi Jingyuan took the initiative to stretch out her right hand and asked in a small voice with a smile: "Anihassai, are you ...... momoοΌ β
There is a VJ carrying a camera next to it to shoot, and it will be used in the behind-the-scenes footage that "Unborn" will be released publicly in the later stage, but it's not too close, and the noise around it is very loud and noisy, and you can't shoot it if you talk quietly.
"Inside, does Yuan's predecessor still remember me?" Hearing his name, Hirai Tao was very happy, his eyes lit up, his head was raised, and his bangs shook a little, and at the same time, he quickly stretched out his hand and slapped Chi Jingyuan lightly.
She really looks like a fan, and she is obviously a little excited in the face of Chi Jingyuan.
"Inside...... Thank you for your support of our Unborn, Kang Sanmida. β
Ji Kyung-won responded with a smile, then turned around and took the coffee and fried chicken from Park Jae-hyun's hand, and handed them to Hirai Momo while politely thanking him, with a good smile on his face, but it was no different from when facing other fans.
But being able to remember her name made Hirai Tao very happy, and in the face of Chi Jingyuan's thanks, she was a little excited and bowed, and after seeing the staff signal that the time was up, she left briskly, and stood nearby after walking out and waited for her friend with a smile.
Ji Jingyuan already had a premonition after seeing this neon trainee named Momo.
Sure enough, the next girl who came over was the trainee named Mina, and she was also the most impressive one in the club trio that day.
I was deeply impressed because the conflict that night was caused by her, and then when I was at the police station, I was always upset by the people who watched with tears in my eyes, and finally took the initiative to ask him for contact information before leaving, but he directly refused.
I can't remember a series of things.
Originally, he was also a person from two worlds, but Chi Jingyuan thought that he would not be able to see each other after meeting once, but he didn't expect to meet here today.
It's been getting cold during this time, and the temperature in the early morning is also a little low, Nakai Nan is wearing a black jacket with red stripes on the edge at this time, and the zipper is pulled to the position of the collarbone to reveal the white crewneck shirt lined inside, and a pair of light-colored sneakers are stepped on under the tight slacks, and the overall look is both youthful and sporty, but it is quite eye-catching.
A head of long black hair draped over his shoulders to reveal the left side of his forehead, his face was obviously covered with makeup, his upper lips were slightly upturned, his mouth opened slightly, faintly revealing a touch of white teeth, and his lips were shiny and shiny, I don't know if I wore lipstick or what.
At this time, he stood in front of Chi Jingyuan and looked obviously a little cramped, the sleeves of his coat were long, his hands were clutching the lower edge of the cuffs, and only two or three knuckles were exposed inside, looking up at Chi Jingyuan, who was much taller than her, his eyes were unblinking, and his eyes were rippling with water waves, as if he was telling something.
She pursed her lips as if she wanted to smile better, but no matter how she looked at it, she felt a little nervous.
Mingjing Nan really feels that his heart is beating hard now, and he has imagined the current picture several times before, and he has prepared a lot of abdominal drafts to say something, but when he really stood in front of Ji Jingyuan, he realized that there was no point in doing that.
This is the second time we have met in reality, but at this time, Chi Jingyuan, who is wearing a suit and has a business smile on his face, is completely different from the last time I saw Chi Jingyuan at the club and the police station, obviously there is no change in appearance, but it gives her two completely different feelings.
"I ......" Minami Nai wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the other party.
"Anihassaiyo ......"
Ji Jingyuan smiled oh said hello and then stretched out his hand, stopped in the air and shook it at her.
Mingjing Nan, who was interrupted and sluggish for a while, also hurriedly poked his right hand out of the cuff, and after raising it, he seemed to hesitate, and then blinked his eyes, and hit Chi Jingyuan's hand at once, making a crisp sound.
She's still working hard, and she doesn't know if she wants to show her enthusiasm or if she wants to vent something.
Chi Jingyuan felt that the other party's palms were sweaty, a little sticky.
"Thank you for your support of our Unborn, Kangsanmida."
Ji Jingyuan didn't call out her name, but expressed his gratitude for the other party's presence with his trademark polite smile, and then took the food and handed it to her.
Although Mingjing Nan did leave a deep impression on him, Chi Jingyuan didn't have anything special about her, she was just someone she met by chance.
That is, he is very good-looking, and his temperament is quite unique.
Najing Nan's hand that was shrunk in his sleeve before reached out and took the coffee and fried chicken from Chi Jingyuan's hand, but his face suddenly deteriorated, and his shining eyes suddenly darkened a lot.
Because she found that Chi Jingyuan didn't seem to have anything special about her, as if he didn't have any impression of her anymore.
This feels terrible.
After that, the time came, and at the suggestion of the staff, Najing Nan left the stage with his things, and when he went down, he couldn't help but look back and stare at it, at this time Ji Jingyuan had already begun to greet the next fan.
Seeing Hirai Tao waving to him, Minami Nakai was in a very bad mood and slowly walked over there, and the emotions in her heart were a little complicated.
I had prepared a lot of words and wanted to say them when we met, but after I really stood here, I realized that I didn't have this opportunity at all.
She didn't expect to really say anything on this occasion, and Mingjing Nan just wanted to see if she could be treated a little differently, such as Ji Jingyuan still remembering herself, calling her name and taking the initiative to say hello or something.
She's happy just that.
It's a pity that there is no one, as if she is just an ordinary fan, and there is no difference from other audiences who participate in the event.
"What's wrong, why are you upset to see your boyfriend?" Seeing that his face was obviously a little bad when he came over, and he was far less energetic than the famous Jing Nan who was not as energetic as before, Hirai Tao asked suspiciously while drinking coffee.
"......" Najing Nan walked to the side and pursed his mouth, not knowing what to say.
Do you say that people don't remember themselves at all?
"This coffee tastes good, and I eat the fried chicken very well, and the seniors are really attentive to this activity." Momo Hirai took a large sip of coffee and swallowed it in his mouth, commented on it and asked, "Did you say anything?" Surely you remember your name, right? I think he should be quite impressed with you. β
"Why do you say that?" Hearing this, Najing Nan raised his head and looked at her.
"Of course, as soon as I got up, he asked me if I was momo, and he obviously recognized me directly. He remembers my name, mina yours, not to mention. β
Hirai Momo rummaged through the paper bag, put a smaller fried chicken in his hand and fed it into his mouth, and said while enjoying eating: "After all, people helped you out that day, and you also asked him for contact information, if I were him, I would definitely remember you." β
ββ¦β¦β
Nan Nakai was a little stunned when she heard it, and what Hirai Momo said was a little different from what she had just imagined in her heart.
What she thought was that Ji Jingyuan didn't take the events of that day and the three inconspicuous trainees to heart, and had completely forgotten about them.
But Momo Hirai said that he recognized Momo directly and called her name.
That Chi Jingyuan should probably remember himself.
So why did he call Momo's name, but not Mina's name to say hello? and deliberately pretended not to recognize it, which made her depressed for a while.
Why treat her specially?
Don't......
A thought popped up in Nan Mingjing's heart, and after a short hesitation, his mood instantly improved.
For some reason, she suddenly had a conjecture in her heart.
Definitely!
Cheering himself up in his heart, thinking about it, Mingjing Nan couldn't help but purse his mouth, a smile appeared on his face, and in just a few seconds, the whole person suddenly became clear from a sullen state, and the corners of his mouth didn't know when they were raised.
She glanced at Hirai Momo, ignored the other party's extremely weird eyes, took out the coffee that was still hot and held it in her hand, took a sip of it, enjoyed the sound of 'ha', and nodded in agreement:
"It's delicious, sweet."
"Mina you...... Are you alright? β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
After the ratings convention ended, Ji Jingyuan returned to the crew and continued to shoot the TV series.
There was no episode in today's convention event, that is, after the 100 places were completed, the fans who were still queuing behind him were a little dissatisfied when they saw that he was about to leave, but it was resolved after Park Jae-hyun stepped forward and pulled Ji Kyung-won away in a angry manner.
The agent directly absorbed all the hatred and firepower, and the dissatisfied fans understood in their hearts when they saw Ji Jingyuan waving apologetically to them while being pulled away, and they could only complain that SM's agents were all Xiba and didn't let them contact with idols and died quickly.
In addition to a few familiar fans in today's event, the ones who left an impression in retrospect were Momo and Mina, who I knew before, but although they were acquaintances, Ji Jingyuan didn't have anything special about them.
That is, I have met once or twice before and there is no more communication, and there is indeed a long distance between him and the trainees, let alone the neon trainees, once he can't make his debut, he will definitely return to China.
I guess I won't see it after this time.
After a day's shooting, Ji Jingyuan returned to the dormitory in a nanny car, and today the crew got off work earlier, and he came back a little earlier than usual.
In the past, because I was busy until one or two o'clock in the morning every day, when I returned to the dormitory, the members were already asleep, and today is the time when everyone is most energetic.
It's just that as soon as he came back, Chi Jingyuan found that the atmosphere in the dormitory was obviously a little bad, there were several people sitting in the living room discussing something, and the whole room seemed a little dignified, as if something had happened.
After seeing Chi Jingyuan come back, several members in the living room also nodded at him and said hello: "I'm back." β
"What's the situation?"
Chi Jingyuan changed his shoes and walked in, put the bag in the corner of the sofa, and asked suspiciously.
"The company wants Tao to return to the team early, and at the same time start practicing for the concert on the 11th of next month."
Jin Junmian glanced at the bedroom door that was closed on the side and explained in a low voice:
"Tao didn't want to, I had a fight with Brother Chenghuan just now."
