(smiley)"

Every time a text message is exchanged, it starts with an expression, which is also a tacit understanding between Mingjing Nan and Chi Jingyuan.

After Chi Jingyuan made a (smiley) expression, the two of them chatted casually.

After the previous chance encounter in the movie theater, the relationship has become a lot closer, and the two people with common hobbies actually have a lot of topics, especially after the official debut of Najing Nan, after experiencing a variety of novelty, or embarrassment, and even exhausting and tired trips, it brought her a lot of complex emotions such as pressure, disappointment, excitement, etc., which made her have a lot more desire to talk than before.

Dong Laxi talked for a while, and Chi Jingyuan saw that this girl seemed to have something on her mind, and was a little embarrassed to say, so he took the initiative to ask: "What problems have you encountered?" ”

After waiting for a while, I received a somewhat belated reply from Nan Mingjing: "Hmm...... Have you watched our show lately? ”

"Nope."

“…… (wink). She was obviously choked: "We recorded a lot of variety shows after our debut, but, but after the broadcast, most of my footage was cut...... In fact, sometimes I think I performed very well, but it didn't have any effect, and last time my agent and teacher criticized me, but I still ...... like this when I recorded the show today."

"But I'm really, really trying to do it."

"You...... In the case of variety shows, do I sometimes need to pay attention to them? ”

Chi Jingyuan looked at his phone and exhaled.

From the several, intermittent text messages sent in a row, it can be seen that this girl is probably hit.

Because some of the circumstances after her debut were not as good as she imagined before, her popularity was not brilliant enough, she was not conspicuous enough in the team, and she did not get any positive feedback on her hard performance.

Ji Jingyuan has not specifically studied the popularity of twice, but it is easy to see through the news and exposure that Zhou Ziyu is now a standout in the team, and JYP is not only supporting Zhou Ziyu with the popularity, but also pushing Lin Nalian, the local C position.

As for Mingjing Nan, there is something inconspicuous in the team.

After this period of contact, he also knows a little about Mingjing Nan, he feels that although this girl has a gentle personality, she is actually quite confident in herself, but after her debut, she may have suffered a lot of blows.

It's a pity that Chi Jingyuan is not good at this.

"You ask me this...... Well, in fact, when I was on a variety show, the MC didn't cue me, and I rarely spoke...... And every time I take the initiative to find a position away from the MC or the camera, I sit there quietly and wait for work if I have nothing to do. ”

Minami Nai, who was backstage at the TV station, sitting in a chair waiting for her makeup, looked at the reply on her phone, blinked and pursed her lips.

There is some brilliance in her eyes, because in fact, she also has this kind of character and habits, and she doesn't like to steal the camera in the show, show off or something, if she can sit quietly next to her every time and wait for work, it is really good.

It's just that despite this, she still has a strong heart, and she doesn't want to increase her popularity to do what idol, who can watch the other people in the group be so dazzling, and she can still maintain a calm and waveless mood in obscurity.

People who can have this kind of state of mind are not very suitable for idols.

She re-read the message and tapped the screen to reply, "Actually, I like it too, it's just ......"

"Then do what you want...... Although I can do a good job if cue me, I'm not really good at variety shows, and if some of the members like this, I'll leave it to them. And I personally feel ...... Don't tell anyone...... I don't think variety shows have a big impact on the popularity of idols, and trying too hard to perform will have some counterproductive effects. ”

"It's okay to focus on the essence of idol, the important thing is that you need to figure out what your strengths are."

Seeing the grandeur in Mingjing Nan's heart, this soft girl seemed to be a little confused in front of her, and Chi Jingyuan was not comforted, but just seriously taught her experience.

He doesn't know if it's good or not, but anyway, he thinks it's quite suitable for him, as well as Mingjingnan's.

Because two people are really alike.

"Then what do you think of my merits?" Nanai bit her lip and asked with some expectation.

After sending it, she kept holding her phone and waiting for a reply, and soon the vibration came, she picked it up and looked at it, and there were only a few words in the text message: "You can find yourself in a mirror and take a look." ”

"Poof......

She bit her lip at first, but after reading these words a few more times, she couldn't hold back her chuckle, and a wonderful feeling welled up in her heart, which soothed the frowning brow she had been frowning just now, and her dark eyes looked a little more vivid.

"TWICE has just debuted, and it has only released an album, and the style of your group has not yet been determined, so there is no need to be so anxious because of popularity, it's good to follow your own heart in variety shows, and it's not good to perform forcibly, idols of our genre don't need to work so hard in variety shows, sitting there quietly is already performing...... Finally, I would like to give Mina Xi a famous quote from my predecessors whom I admire the most, 'Popularity has seasons', look at it, how good it is to say......"

"I have something to talk about next time, by the way, the child played well, and "Call Me Baby" also danced very well."

Mingjing Nan looked at the long list of replies seriously, and his smile became brighter and brighter, until he saw the last sentence, his eyes bent, and the little white teeth were exposed.

Of course she knows what Ji Jingyuan is talking about, they played kindergarten children in the V LIVE live broadcast two days ago, wearing children's clothes and wearing a child hat to sell cute live broadcasts, and then there was a random stage game, she and momo danced EXO's "call me baby" together, and she just danced Yuan's part.

I didn't expect Chi Jingyuan to watch it too.

Didn't you say you didn't watch our show......

Mingjing Nan's smiling eyes blinked, and he turned back the few messages sent by Chi Jingyuan just now, and he was a little distracted when he looked at it.

………………

"EXID, who returns today, and an alternate VIXX need to record an interview,

"Then this issue of Taiben Jingyuan, you and Irene will go to the right one, or the same as before, you don't have to do it exactly according to the above, interspersed with a few impromptu interactions in between."

After a few busy days, it came to the 20th, and it was the day of the recording of "Music Bank", as usual, as soon as the two MCs came in the morning, they went to the conference room to have a meeting with the program team, got the script and learned about today's guests and processes.

"Got it." Ji Jingyuan nodded, took a stack of scripts from PD's hand, and Bae Joo-hyun next to him reached out and made the same move.

It's just that Chi Jingyuan Yuguang inadvertently glanced at his partner next to him, and after meeting KBS backstage, he felt that although this sister had a smile on her face today, she seemed to have something on her mind, obviously wearing a very festive red solid color sweater, and a black collar around her neck was a little sexy, but the whole person always looked like she didn't feel energetic.

Speaking of which, due to his absence from the concert in the last issue, in addition to texting from time to time, he hasn't seen Bae Joo-hyun for half a month.

This is the case with the general trend of idols, especially at the end of the year, when the number of trips surges, even if it is an artist from the same company, it is not easy to encounter it if they do not have a common activity.

After the morning meeting, the two MCs returned to the lounge, and entered the rest time after finishing today's script and process seriously, and the two did not do much communication, Bae Joo-hyun was called out by her agent, and Ji Jingyuan sat on the sofa in the lounge and began to study the CF shooting plan of LG V10 that was received yesterday and sent by the advertising agency, which clearly marked the shooting process and plot of this CF.

Under the advice given by Chi Jingyuan and their side, and the activities of JYP later, the so-called audition is a formality, and it has been determined in two days that his partner for this V10 mobile phone advertisement is Zhou Ziyu, and the shooting time is set for tomorrow morning.

About ten minutes later, Pei Zhuhyun, who had just left, pushed the door in again, and after looking at it, he walked over and sat on the same sofa as Ji Jingyuan as usual, but there was a slight distance of half a meter in the middle.

Although there was a cacophony of noise coming in the backstage hallway outside the door, the lounge was quiet, except for the occasional entry of agents and staff, except for the occasional entry of agents and staff, only the sound of turning pages of paper remained.

She may have also noticed that Chi Jingyuan, who was reading the information, was very serious, so she didn't speak, and she didn't know where to take a stack of materials and look at it there.

It's just that I haven't turned a page for a long time, and a pair of eyes are either in a daze, or quietly glance to the side, and I don't know what I'm looking at.

After a heavy walking sound next to him, it was a little loud, Ji Jingyuan looked up at the last staff member who walked out of the lounge, and was about to look down to look at the information again, when Pei Zhuhyun's voice suddenly came from the side: "I heard Hui Yingoni say that because the filming of the TV series is about to join the group, you, you may be about to get off the bus?" ”

"......" He turned his head to look to the side, although he was obviously talking to him, Bae Joo-hyun still maintained the movement of looking down at the information.

Although the voice sounded quite calm and did not fluctuate, the young lady was in a somewhat abnormal state after meeting today, and at this time, she pretended to be calm, but she directly betrayed herself.

Chi Jingyuan's heart immediately understood, he glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze, and like the other party, he lowered his head and continued to look at the information in his hand, leaning on the back of the sofa, and nodding lightly while turning the page lightly with his right hand: "Well, it's almost." ”

“……”

Be quiet.

Before asking out loud, Bae Joo-hyun seemed to be a little tentative, but after getting the answer and confirmation, he suddenly quieted down, pursed his lips and stopped talking.

The bright red sweater is bright and eye-catching, and it is extremely eye-catching on her, and it matches the black collar and leather skirt just right, but the liveliness of the clothes is a little out of place with her somewhat low air pressure at this time.

Since hearing the news from her agent two days ago, she has been in a bad mood, although she knows that it is actually quite normal to get out of the car because of the filming of a TV series, but this kind of words can only comfort and comfort herself, but her mood is not good.

Since May, the weekly fixed MC work of "Music Bank" has become her most important, and it is also her favorite and most enjoyable itinerary, and she is very relaxed and happy every time she records.

In the past two days, she actually wanted to send a text message to ask Chi Jingyuan, but she hesitated again and again and still didn't speak, and at this time, taking advantage of no one, she finally asked out loud after thinking for a long time, but found that Chi Jingyuan looked relaxed and didn't take it too seriously, which made her become a little irritable and uncomfortable all of a sudden.

"Hmm...... Very good......"

After two minutes of silence, Bae Joo-hyun spoke with some difficulty, and the tone of his mouth was a little heavy, and he paused for a moment, and then cleared his throat lightly before continuing.

"It's true that if you have to take time out every week to shoot a TV series, it's really tiring, you're already so busy."

"If you don't have enough time to rest, it really affects your state."

"You haven't filmed for a long time, I see that many of your fans are looking forward to it, you should really take it seriously, your hair has been cut for this drama......"

"That's it...... We're still a little bit short of ...... average ratings It's a bit of a pity. ”

She seemed to be encouraging Chi Jingyuan as well as encouraging herself, and she didn't give Chi Jingyuan time to respond, and she kept chattering there by herself.

"And...... The company has also picked up some trips for me recently, in fact, I am actually quite busy......"

In the end, probably because of her self-esteem, she also said intermittently in a somewhat jerky voice, as if she was comforting herself and proving something.

Hearing this, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but put down the advertising materials in his hand and turned his head to look at it.

Young lady, when did you have the attribute of broken thoughts?

And you're not going to treat me as a newcomer, do you, I wonder that despite your popularity in Red Velvet, you haven't had any personal resources? I didn't know that this fixed MC is already your most important trip?

It's just that after he turned around, what came into his eyes was that Pei Zhuhyun was still looking down and pretending to look at the information, trying her best to maintain her self-esteem, and the stiffness of her body could be felt without touching it, which made Ji Jingyuan's ridiculous emotions in his heart go down a lot immediately.

He sighed in his heart and interrupted the other party in a loud voice: "Not for the time being." ”

"Ah......h

Hearing this, Bae Joo-hyun, who was about to say something, paused for a moment, exclaimed in surprise, and at the same time reflexively raised his head and looked over.

Chi Jingyuan glanced at her, lowered his head again, lifted a page of information and shook it from side to side casually: "Originally, the company said that they would get off when they joined the group, probably in early December, but ...... And when I first joined the group, I had enough time, so I postponed it for a few days, and waited until the TV series was officially broadcast, and I broadcast it while filming, and then I went down after the shooting task was heavy. ”

“……”

After pursing her lips and listening, Bae Zhuhyun blinked and looked at Ji Jingyuan for a while, and then quieted down again, she sat there quietly, and no longer talked to herself like just now, but she seemed to be a little distracted.

It's just that I don't know when it started, her legs that were originally parallel changed positions, and then shook slightly, and at the same time, the low air pressure that had been surrounding the two of them just now clearly gradually dissipated.

And Chi Jingyuan glanced at the young lady who was no longer silent, and then continued to look through the information in his hand.

After a while, there was a sudden small movement next to him, and then he felt an elbow poke him lightly, and when he looked up, he saw Bae Joo-hyun's tentative expression and sparkling eyes, she handed over a pair of headphones, and asked in a soft voice, "Do you want to listen to the song?" ”

Chi Jingyuan noticed that the material she had been reading for a while just now was gone, and she didn't know that it had been thrown somewhere.

"Why has it changed so much? I've been putting on a face since the morning......"

Ji Jingyuan tilted his head, looked at Pei Zhuhyun's shiny and godly eyes, and smiled dumbly.

sat up and took the headphones, and looked at each other's eyes at the same time: "And it's pushed back for a month or two, and it's about six or seven more episodes to be recorded, and it's not that you don't get out of the car, why did you suddenly feel so good?"

"Heh......"

Bae Joo-hyun, who was low and a little at a loss just now, had disappeared, and the young lady who had become bright just chuckled, glanced at him prettyly, and didn't explain, and directly operated the mobile phone and started to play songs.

In fact, she knew very well that they would get off sooner or later, but she had always felt that she was still far away from her, and she felt that it was too sudden and unwilling after receiving the news.

Especially Ji Jingyuan's attitude just now seemed a little perfunctory and casual, which made Pei Zhuhyun, who originally thought that Ji Jingyuan didn't want to get out of the car, as if he had been poured a basin of cold water, which was very uncomfortable.

She found that what she cared about most was not getting out of the car, but the attitude of the other party.

After knowing that Chi Jingyuan took the initiative to communicate with the company and postponed the time to get off the bus, the irritability that was blocked just now was instantly swept away.

In particular, the young lady understood the meaning of what Chi Jingyuan didn't say just now after 'but'.

But...... But what?

She seemed to be blown by the refreshing night breeze, and suddenly became much more relaxed.

It's a pity, but not getting out of the car suddenly doesn't matter so much.

And it's still a month or two anyway......

The music sounded, a very familiar song, and Chi Jingyuan knew after listening to the prelude that it was their EXO's "First Snow"

"It's been a year in the blink of an eye."

"My heart is still full of nostalgia."

The atmosphere of low pressure just now disappeared, two people sat on the sofa, one looked at the advertising materials again, and the other was fiddling with the mobile phone in his hand, and a headphone cable in the middle shook slightly, connecting two men and women who were listening to the song quietly.

……

About half an hour later, after listening to the song "4 Wall", Ji Jingyuan took off his headphones and stood up, and started today's work with Bae Joo-hyun.

It's a pity to say, originally he thought that he could see FX in today's issue of "Music Bank", but after FX returned with the regular four albums on the 27th of last month, it only took half a month to end the album's activities, and then the five members began their respective trips.

The event time is too short, and there is not much related publicity, Ji Jingyuan also knows that there are many difficulties in the preparation of this album, because of the lack of resources and support from the company, the MV of the title song seems to have been filmed by FX himself, and he actually called a small help.

SM is really not taken seriously.

But I can also understand a little.,The five members of fx,The most popular three,One is more and more active in the mainland.,Although it didn't run directly like EXO's Xia Guo line.,On the contrary, victoria has a very good attitude and is very attentive to the combination.,But because of the lessons from the past.,Of course, SM can't rest assured.,Resources naturally can't be given.。

The other two, one Cui Xueli wants to be an actor and waits to quit the group, and the other Zheng Xiujing has a violent conflict with the company and causes a bad situation in the company, it is estimated that if it were not for the contract restrictions, she would have run away long ago.

In this case, FX can also return to the past very good results, and there are also a group of their own die-hard fans, and it is estimated that they will be directly hidden by the snow after changing other combinations.

FX's title song "4 walls" this time is really quite appetizing to Ji Jingyuan, although the MV is a bit cheap, but the song is really good, and it sounds very comfortable.

It's a bit of a pity.
