Bang", Chi Jingyuan got into the car and closed the door, and the wind howling outside was suddenly separated by the sealed door and weakened a lot, and the whole carriage suddenly became quiet.

He had just returned to the peninsula by plane overnight from Hong Kong Island, and was picked up by Park Jae-hyun with his assistant and then returned all the way from Incheon Airport, and when he was about to drive to Gangnam-gu, he sent a message to Bae Joo-hyun and learned that she was still in the company at this time, so he drove directly to the SM building and picked her up.

Thanks to the late hour, there were not many vehicles, the road was in good condition, and they were driving very fast all the way, and it was already past two o'clock in the morning, and there were no people on the entire street along the way, and occasionally there was a low roar of engines swept by.

Choi Ji-chang, who was driving, and Park Jae-hyun, who was the co-pilot, didn't ask Ji Kyung-won what he was doing at the company at all, and after seeing Bae Joo-hyun get into the car, they just responded and said hello, and after glancing in the rearview mirror, they remained silent and waited for Ji Kyung-won to command, and there was no surprise at all.

As Chi Jingyuan's assistant and agent, they are already very familiar with this kind of thing, and they have a hand in being transparent people for such a long time

Ji Jingyuan glanced at Bae Joo-hyun, who had just been received.

Today, she didn't wear a hat, and her long shawl hair was covered down her cheeks, blocking most of her side face from being unable to see her expression, and her pure black cashmere sweater was covered with a plaid pattern jacket, and her lower body was dark slacks and a pair of light white sneakers.

Although the outfit is not very exquisite, it looks quite comfortable, and the hem of the jacket covers the thighs a lot, making her look a little small.

After she got into the car, she first whispered hello to the two people in front of her, and then stared at Chi Jingyuan for a few seconds before taking the initiative to sit down by the left window, and began to lower her head and play with her fingers, without saying a word.

It's just like Chi Jingyuan took the initiative to call her out.

However, after glancing at the two brothers in front of him, Chi Jingyuan could also understand.

It's not used to expressing some feelings in front of his teammates, let alone in front of two outsiders.

"Brother, go to ......" Chi Jingyuan thought for a short time for two seconds, and directly said a location, and Cui Zhichang nodded without saying a word, and directly started the car.

This is a small park near their EXO dormitory in the *** area, anyway, before Bae Joo-hyun said in a text message that he wanted to go out for a walk, so he simply went there for a walk, and it just so happened that the dormitory of redvelvet was not far from here.

Speaking of which, this is still what Park Chanyeol said to Ji Kyung-won in the previous chat, saying that he usually sometimes goes over to go around when he is dating friends, and he is relatively famous among EXO members.

Hearing the name of this place, Bae Zhuhyun didn't say anything, quietly glanced at him, and quickly turned around and continued to play with his nails.

…………

When he got out of the car, Park Jae-hyun gave Ji Kyung-won a look, indicating that they were waiting for him next to him, and Ji Kyung-won nodded before closing the door and taking the lead towards the park next to him.

It is a small public park, and it is usually visited by residents of nearby neighborhoods and apartments after washing, and the small fountain in the center is popular when the weather is hot.

The circle of flourishing trees that had been planted around it has become much more depressed in the winter, and it is a little lonely to stand side by side.

One heavy and one light, two completely different footsteps from far and near, Ji Jingyuan walked in front, and Pei Zhuhyun followed behind step by step, but at this time she was no longer like when she was in the car just now, but raised her head and kept staring at the back of the person in front of her, the light in her eyes flickered a little, and she pursed her mouth and didn't know what she was thinking.

Walking to the center of the park, Chi Jingyuan's footsteps slowly slowed down, and he glanced around, there was no one in the entire park, and the temperature was a little cold.

He also stopped when he heard the footsteps behind him, tightened his collar, and was about to turn around and take the initiative to break the silence and say casually, "Well, by the way, tonight......

It's just that he didn't say a word just now, and when his body didn't have time to turn around, he only felt a figure rush from behind and directly clinged to it

The force slammed into him and shook him slightly, and then he felt like he was being held from behind.

Bae Joo-hyun hugged him tightly, feeling that his body was still trembling a little, his hands were around his waist very hard, and his head was also firmly attached to his back, even through the thick clothes, there was an obvious touch.

Ji Jingyuan, who was suddenly hugged, was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that Pei Zhuhyun didn't say a word, and directly hit a straight ball with such emotion, feeling her somewhat trembling body and strangled arms, he could feel the surging feelings and tension in the other party's heart.

can make Bae Joo-hyun, who has a slow-burning personality, unable to control herself from taking the initiative like this, which shows how turbulent her emotions are under her pretending calm appearance from just now to now.

Of course, Ji Jingyuan didn't ask, "What's wrong with you?"

At the MAMA venue, he already understood a little bit when he received the text message.

He was stunned for a moment, raised his hands, and stood there quietly without making a sound, and at this moment in the silent park, he could only hear the heartbeat of the two people close to each other.

It's just that she tightened too tightly to make Ji Jingyuan a little breathless, and he reached out and tried to break the hands that Pei Zhuhyun was clasped together in front of him.

Tried twice. Didn't break it.

I don't know if I'm too nervous and excited in my heart, or I'm afraid that he will suddenly fly away or what, Bae Joo-hyun wrapped his hands around him a little too hard, even in the dark park, against the dim light, you can vaguely see that her fingers clasped together are a little white because they are too hard.

A cold wind blew and stabbed his face and hands were a little cold, and Ji Jingyuan didn't bother to care about whether it was uncomfortable or not, he exhaled softly and put his hand on Pei Zhuhyun's hand to keep her warm, and at that moment, a cold and violently trembling touch came from the nerves to his mind.

One stood in front and covered each other's hands, and the other buried his head in the back and hugged him tightly.

After a long time, feeling that Pei Zhuhyun behind him seemed to be calmer, Ji Jingyuan pursed his mouth, looked at the hands covered by himself in front of him, and chuckled: "Senior, what are you doing here...... Illuminate me?"

"Bang ......"

Bae Joo-hyun didn't make a sound, but just bumped his head on his back and made a muffled sound, and his thoughts and response were already obvious.

fell into silence again, silently feeling the temperature on his body for a while, Pei Zhuhyun imprinted his head on Ji Jingyuan's clothes, and his voice was a little dull: "You...... Why do you put what I say in the lyrics?"

Now recalling the uncontrollable emotions that surged throughout his body when he heard "Let It Be" just now, Bae Joo-hyun's body is still hot.

The feeling that her whole body was warm, her heart was beating and her brain was surging, and she was really fascinated.

She made all kinds of conjectures in her heart, and also had some judgments of her own, but she still wanted to ask.

"Hmm...... It's not about putting what you say into the lyrics......

Ji Jingyuan chuckled lightly, and tapped his fingers twice on Bae Joo-hyun's hand: "It's because I heard what you said, this song was born."

「……」

As the words came out, Ji Jingyuan obviously felt that Pei Zhuxun behind him trembled slightly, and his cheek rubbed against his back.

"Do you know how ...... do that," her muffled voice came from behind, but she stopped in the middle of speaking, and the rest seemed a little difficult to speak, and she was too embarrassed to speak.

Although she didn't finish speaking, she felt that the other party should understand what she meant.

"Know what? It's just writing a song, I don't think about it that much......

It's just that he didn't meet Pei Zhuhyun's expectations, and Ji Jingyuan's somewhat confused voice came from the front, and his tone was very surprised, as if he didn't understand what she meant.

That natural tone made her body stiffen, the temperature in her heart suddenly cooled a lot, and the hands that were clasped around the other party couldn't help but loosen a little.

I thought I could understand what she was thinking, but that kind of tacit understanding did not appear, but on the contrary, it looked like she didn't understand what she was talking about at all.

I don't know why, a kind of self is completely wishful thinking

The feeling of wishing to envelop the whole body at once, a little empty and cool, really uncomfortable.

Ji Jingyuan suddenly broke her clasped hand slightly, and quickly turned around to face her directly, Pei Zhuhyun raised his head in a daze, and made eye contact with him.

At this moment, I saw Jian Ji Jingyuan bowing down and half-squatting, wrapping his hands around Pei Zhuhyun's waist, and directly hugged her whole person.

It's exactly the same as Bae Joo-hyun hugging him just now, except that one is from the back, and this time it's face-to-face.

"Ah......h

Although she was startled, she soon came back to her senses, she was surprised again, and stared at Ji Jingyuan with some shame, but although there was fire in her eyes, she didn't have any intention of resisting, whether it was her hands or legs, she hung firmly on him.

「…… Of course it's impossible, how can I not think of anything, and I'm not a pabo."

Ji Jingyuan continued what he had just said.

After hearing this, Bae Joo-hyun suddenly quieted down, his hands tightened around his neck, and he pursed his mouth and looked at his eyes with watery eyes.

And Chi Jingyuan also looked at her eyes, and a smile flashed: "Do you want to ask me, do you think that this will make some people's heads empty after hearing these lyrics, and their minds will be chaotic and they can't calm down at all."

"I didn't think that this would make her unable to control her feelings, and she didn't go back to the dormitory in the middle of the night to meet someone who was still participating in activities on Hong Kong Island a few hours ago."

"Do you want to ask me, do you think that doing so will make her think cranky, and there will be all kinds of reverie in her mind that people can't calm down at all, and even some ridiculous misunderstandings?"

At the end, Ji Jingyuan blinked his eyes and tilted his head slightly: "Really?"

"yes." At this time, Pei Zhuhyun was not at all flustered and silent just now, and she did not mean to evade, and she did not deny that what the other party just said was herself, but just looked at him quietly.

She gently shook her bangs on her forehead, stared at Chi Jingyuan's eyes with her neck blinked, and bit her lower lip before exclaiming, "Then did you think of it?"

"Hehe......" Ji Jingyuan suddenly grinned, raised his eyes and thought for a second, and then pursed his lips: "I really didn't think of so much in advance, but there is a little ......."

As he spoke, he slowly lowered his head and leaned towards Bae Joo-hyun's cheek.

He clearly felt the other party's body freeze all of a sudden.

Pei Zhuhyun was originally nervous and serious and was waiting for his answer, but suddenly felt that Ji Jingyuan's face was slowly approaching her, she immediately seemed to have a premonition of what he was going to do, and her heart was beating wildly in an instant, but there was no intention of resisting either physically or in her mind, although her body temperature suddenly rose a lot, and her heart was drumming, but she still held him and stared at him motionlessly.

Just when she got closer and closer, and Bae Joo-hyun was already a little prepared, Ji Jingyuan's head suddenly turned in the same direction, and the cheeks of the two people were misaligned, and she stopped in her ear and whispered, "Is it possible...... This one...... Isn't it a misunderstanding?"

Suddenly, Bae Joo-hyun felt that his heart stopped beating, and his qi and blood surged, full of heat.

It's just that there is no follow-up after saying this, at this time Ji Jingyuan shook his head, squatted down, let go of Pei Zhuxun, and watched Pei Zhuxun let go of his hands and feet like a puppet and stood still on the ground, he squinted and looked at the other party, and then waved his hand casually while standing up, turned around and prepared to take two more steps forward:

"Okay, everybody hugged each other, and we're clear...... It's kind of romantic now, but when I wrote the song, I just felt like it was coming, and I didn't think about it......

He hadn't finished speaking, he had only been standing on the ground for a long time, and Pei Zhuhyun, who had been looking at him in a daze, raised his head and stared

He glanced at him, and suddenly pulled him hard, so that his back body took a step forward, wrapped his hands around his neck, stood on tiptoe and printed it directly with his lips.

The action is impulsive but calm, the behavior is reckless but serious, and the emotions are wild but profound.

Ji Jingyuan's unfinished words were all stuffed back in an instant, he looked at the closed but slightly trembling eyes and eyelashes that were close at hand, felt the softness and warmth on his lips, and also stretched out his hand to hug the other party, and his body slowly bent a little.

The whole park was clear and there was no shadow of anyone else in sight, the wind howling and the call of the treetops set off the atmosphere more quietly, the cold wind and the moonlight wandered around for a long time to find nothing, and finally only these two men and women hugging each other could be found.

I don't know how long it took for the two to separate, the interesting thing is that neither Ji Jingyuan nor Bae Zhuhyun had any shyness, but the two of them naturally looked up and looked down at each other quietly with their lips pursed, the moonlight shone in their eyes, but it was reflected in the pupils of the other person.

"Is it better?" Chi Jingyuan smiled and took the initiative to speak, breaking the tranquility.

Bae Joo-hyun laughed, reached out and brushed the hair that was a little messy just now behind his ear, looked at him and whispered, "What do you think?"

Now Bae Joo-hyun seems to have calmed down, and the impulse to burst out of emotion just now looks a little free, but under the light, in such a low temperature, her red face and nose add a bit of cuteness to her.

"It turns out that the seniors called me out so late for this ......."

"Aren't you happy?" Bae Joo-hyun looked at him.

"Inside, happy, happy."

"I don't know which insider broke the news in the first place, and our scandal was really predictable." Ji Jingyuan glanced at her face and felt a little funny: "If you look at it this way, the Ellie really didn't say the wrong person before."

"Cut."

Pei Zhuhyun's fingers were wrapped around the tip of her hair a few times, and after hearing the words, she wrinkled her nose and looked unhappy, but the corners of her mouth were gently raised, thinking of those Yuan fans who grabbed her on the Internet and scolded her and scolded, but there was a faint sense of rebellion and pride in her heart.

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, and then looked around casually with their eyes apart, and stood there for a long time.

"Now that the purpose of Joo-hyun's predecessor has been achieved...... Let's go, it's so late." Ji Jingyuan took out his mobile phone and looked at the time, and now if he doesn't go back, he probably won't have to sleep at night, he can go back and wash his face and go directly to the crew.

"Hmm." didn't refute, Pei Zhuhyun nodded lightly, walked a few steps faster with his calves and walked to Ji Jingyuan's side by side, his eyes glanced at his hands, and after thinking about it, he still didn't catch it.

The intimate contact just now was actively made under the impetus of the uncontrollable emotions after hearing Ji Jingyuan's words, and all the pent-up feelings that were accumulated when I heard the song "Let It Be" this night broke out of the cocoon at that moment and vented it all.

It's exciting, it's beautiful, it's fun.

It's just that at this time, after calming down, rationality, self-esteem and reserve, Bae Joo-hyun thought of a lot of other things.

"Do you just go out and take the car, or do you want to walk back?"

"Let's take two steps, it's quite close to our dormitory, and it's only ten minutes away."

After exchanging a few words, the two walked out of the park along the side of the road, towards Redvelvet's dormitory.

"By the way, is it really okay for you to go back so late? The agent must be living with you." Thinking of this stubble, Chi Jingyuan asked with concern.

"The agent has something to do in the past two days and hasn't lived in the dormitory...... I'm just going to have an excuse to tell Shiki and them." Bae Joo-hyun glanced at him, pursed her lips and raised her eyes, as if she was thinking about what to say when she went back.

"Joo-hyun, don't you often lie to them?" Feeling that her expression was quite interesting, Ji Jingyuan couldn't help laughing.

「…… No, and they're not stupid, they know a lot of things, they just need an excuse." She looked at the road ahead

face, leisurely retorted.

After expressing the previously irrepressible emotions and complicated thoughts, Bae Joo-hyun felt relaxed at this time, and the feeling of pressing the road side by side with Ji Jingyuan also made her a little happy, her two hands were stuffed in her pockets to keep warm, and her crotch twisted and kicked her calves with the iconic walking posture very cheerfully.

"That's right." She suddenly remembered something, and quickly turned her head to look at Chi Jingyuan: "What you said last time, the matter of returning......

This is one of the things she cares about the most these days, but because of the other party's malicious betrayal, she is a little angry and doesn't want to lick her face to ask.

Just for now...... It doesn't matter.

"Oh, it was a meeting of the company to discuss the return schedule of EXO next year, and when the specific time was agreed, a head of the planning department mentioned it, and I didn't ask carefully, but it seems that it has almost been decided."

Chi Jingyuan glanced at her and told the story of the meeting that day, but he didn't know much.

"This ......" Although she didn't know the specific plan, she was already very satisfied with her return, Bae Joo-hyun blinked her eyes a little happy, and then asked, "What about the new members?" Is it Yilin, or Gaoen, or someone else?"

Chi Jingyuan froze for a moment, and spread his hands helplessly: "I don't know any of these names you said."

"Why are you like that?" After hearing this, Pei Zhuhyun was a little dissatisfied, and glared at him as if he was upset: "Obviously, I have seen it several times during the family concert, and I watched it from the side twice, and every time people greet you respectfully, didn't you pay attention to it at all?"

"Really?" Chi Jingyuan recalled, it seemed that it was because of this but he really didn't remember the names of those trainees.

He shrugged his shoulders, "I forgot, maybe they lack some memory points, and they don't impress me as much as they did when I first met you."

「jinjia？」 Bae Joo-hyun's eyes lit up when she heard this, she suddenly slowed down and stared at her with flashing eyes, and asked with great interest, "Then what impression did I leave on you for the first time?"

"Uh......" just said casually just now, but now that Ji Jingyuan recalls it, he suddenly remembered that the first impression that Pei Zhuhyun left on him was actually very ordinary, no matter his figure, temperament, or appearance, if it wasn't for Wu Shixun mentioning it, he wouldn't have any memory.

After pondering for two seconds, Chi Jingyuan glanced at her, and quickly quickened his pace: "Forget it, let's not talk about it."

"Ah, again, why are you so annoying?" Seeing Ji Jingyuan, who seemed to be speeding away, Bae Joo-hyun's curiosity was once again suspended in the air, and he shouted angrily at his back, and then trotted up and kicked him in the calf.

Ji Jingyuan made a painful gag with a bitter face, and rubbed the topic just now.

How else to say it? Short stature, average temperament, ordinary appearance, acne on the face, and sad complexion?

After kicking twice, Bae Joo-hyun didn't pay much attention to it, the two laughed and chatted, she walked next to her and shook her calf, she may be in a really good mood at this time, and hummed softly in her mouth as she spoke

"Illuminate me eternally, the dazzling light obscured by the clouds."

"The quiet air and gentle warm breeze always accompany me rain or shine."

She sang while nodding her head, and her footsteps were beating the beat in a low tone.

As soon as Ji Jingyuan heard it, he knew that she was singing the rap in "Let It Be", and the original part sounded a special feeling under the rap of Bae Joo-hyun's grandmother.

"Papapa......" Chi Jingyuan applauded very applauded, and praised her with admiration after singing: "The singing is good, much better than the rap singing in our group, you don't know how uncomfortable it was when we recorded."

"Hahaha......" Bae Joo-hyun was a little happy to be praised so positively, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh, and when she heard him say it so exaggerated at the end, she glanced at Ji Jingyuan with disgust.

Smiling, she suddenly became interested again, and turned her head to look at him, "By the way, you say

This song was written because of what I said, but what about the final harmony?"

In the whole song of "Let It Be Natural", in addition to the lyrics that represent the deep memories of the two of them, what impressed her the most was the harmony like the sun melting snow at the end.

"Well...... It comes from the sound of your crying." Ji Jingyuan blinked his eyes and began to imitate Bae Joo-hyun's crying voice: "u~u~u~u~, do I learn like this?" It's rhythmic, isn't it?"

"You, yes!"

Hearing this, I remembered the miserable appearance of crying in front of the other party twice when I didn't control my emotions well, and a wave of shame instantly rushed to my mind.

Bae Joo-hyun took out his small fist and beat him hard, and found that Ji Jingyuan dared to run away, his eyes glared and immediately kicked his sneakers and followed, and after a few consecutive hits, he also thought that the final harmony of "Let It Be Natural" seemed to be a little similar to his own cry, lowered his head and shook his hair, and laughed out loud.

This guy really made her ......

The ten-minute walk was quick and the two stopped when they were about to walk down the street in the Redvelvet dormitory complex.

Looking at Ji Jingyuan in front of him, Bae Joo-hyun suddenly fell silent.

The happy time passed a little too quickly, but when she returned to reality, the disturbed thoughts were revived, she and Chi Jingyuan glanced at each other and then took the initiative to look away, staring at the empty wall next to her, dull for a while, before she hesitated to speak: "Jingyuan, you and ......."

But just said that there was no follow-up at the beginning, Bae Zhuhyun exhaled lightly, and it seemed that something had been decided in her heart, and a gentle smile returned to her face, she brushed her hair and waved her hand at Ji Jingyuan, as if she hadn't said anything just now:

"Then I'll go first."
