The door of the temporary rehearsal room was pushed open, and the young man who had arrived in a hurry sorted out his trench coat, bowed slightly to the four people in the room with an apologetic face, and then looked at Huang Jingxi who was sitting in the corner with a complicated expression.

"Professor Wen, you're finally here."

Professor Park coughed lightly, his rough and slightly wrinkled face flushed slightly from the temperature of the air conditioner.

The other two professors were still on stage reviewing the movements that Kim Jisoo had taught them, mechanically dancing their limbs.

Ms. Jisoo held the podium with her hands, rhythmically and unconsciously drawing circles, her attention focused on the projector.

On the projection screen, the stage of "Forever Young" is playing.

It was the same scene as Moon Young-heng in his living room, and Jisoo was wearing a pink short skirt that day.

"Sorry...... Three seniors, I'm late. ”

Professor Wen took the initiative to put his backpack on the seat before Huang Jingxi stretched out his hand, and at the same time took off his black coat.

It was the same model that had just been sent back from New York, and its twin brother was now hanging in Yoo Jimin's closet.

Hwang Jing-hee withdrew her hand depressedly and glanced at Jisoo Oni, whose eyes were focused and slightly hollow.

Don't...... Was her strategy of approaching on her own initiative really wrong? For the first time, the girl had the idea of trying those old routines offered by Kim Jisoo.

"It's okay, we three old men just happened to use this kung fu to learn from Zhixiu, and we basically mastered it."

Park Bok-ryong smiled, his eyes swirling between Jisoo and the younger juniors.

Hearing Professor Park mention himself, Kim Jisoo quietly rubbed his face, and then looked at Professor Moon with a flat look.

"The three professors have a very good talent for learning, and in just over an hour, they have memorized these choreography."

"But if you sing, I'm afraid the physical strength of our three old guys can't keep up." Park Fulong sighed: "Being young is good. In terms of singing, I have to ask Professor Wen. ”

That...... Didn't the three of them completely become Wen Yingheng's backup dancers?

The young professor looked in Kim Ji-so's direction in embarrassment, hoping for some advice.

"It is a very difficult thing to sing and dance on stage, and how to adjust your breathing, pace and movements during the march requires a long time of polishing."

"The physical strength of the three professors is indeed a problem."

Ms. Jisoo nodded, smoothly and professionally.

"So, it really takes a lot of sweat to jump to your level." Professor Wen raised his eyes and looked at Jisoo who was shining on the screen: "It's been hard work to get to where you are today. ”

"Oh......" organized the language, and Kim Jisoo actually forgot to say some polite words, just turned his back and let the air conditioner blow his face.

The dry, warm wind blew on the cheeks, but I didn't feel much heat.

Must have gotten used to this temperature.

"Shall we do it again together?" Park Bok-ryong clapped his hands and signaled the end of the break.

The prelude to "Forever Young" sounded, and Moon Yingheng took a deep breath and adjusted his mentality.

It's embarrassing...... He has never danced a girl group dance on stage in his life.

When he was studying at Seongnam International, Wen Yingheng consulted Yoo Jimin, who had not known him for a few days, on the grounds that he "needed to sing the annual meeting program on stage". This is also the beginning of the two really getting acquainted.

Thinking of the previous events, Professor Wen's emotions were also relaxed, and his stiff limbs melted like ice.

"Stop...... The movement here, everyone needs to align it, and the movement is a little loose. ”

At the end of the first rehearsal, Jisoo pointed out the questions he had summarized.

The main problem is basically focused on a few old professors.

Jisoo subconsciously gently helped the old professor to a more suitable standing point, and when he passed in front of Wen Yingheng, he deliberately widened the distance, pointed to the ground and said, "It's good to stand here." ”

Then, like a gust of wind, it quickly swept to the other side.

Leaves only a light fragrance.

……

"What the hell happened to her today......

Moon Young-heng ended the two-hour rehearsal, chatting with the three old professors while thinking about Kim Jiso's abnormality today.

Is it because of the scandal?

If that's the case, it seems to explain why Kim Ji-so tried his best to avoid contact between the two today.

Apologetically, he took out his phone and sent a message to "Student-Kim Jiso".

"I saw the news on the Internet."

It doesn't seem good, as if it's deliberately trying to make crimson bubbles. So the slender fingers clicked on the virtual keyboard.

"Life is too short, don't care about the gossip on the Internet."

Wen Yingheng was very satisfied with his words, not only playing the meme that he is an aespa fan, but also expressing his position on this gossip news.

Moreover, the lyrics in it are very appropriate.

“Cause you ' ve got to realize

All behind a phone screen

When we ' re tryna live our lives

Why you gotta be so vicious

Be about your business

Stead of getting up in mine

You need to get a life

Cause life ' s too short.”

Professor Park Fulong wiped the sweat left on his forehead and lowered the temperature of the indoor air conditioner: "Professor Wen, your stage performance is really good." You must have been practicing for a long time, right? ”

"The three professors contributed so much to the performance of the annual meeting, and as a junior, of course I should learn from a few seniors."

Speaking politely and distractedly, Professor Wen hid his phone.

"Don't be modest, this is not what we said, it was admitted by Kim Jisoo himself."

Park Fulong approached Moon Young-heng's side with emotion and looked at the handsome young professor from top to bottom.

Admit it yourself...... It's hard to imagine Kim Jisoo's demeanor when he says this, and besides, he hasn't heard Kim Jisoo say that.

"I'm not talented, maybe I'm better taught by a professional teacher?"

Looking up at the ceiling with his pupils facing up, his memory seems to go back to the night Yoo Jimin taught him to dance "Forever Young".

Looking at the corners of the young professor's slightly raised mouth, the old professor Park Fulong seemed to understand something, and pulled the other two old professors outside: "It seems that we are disturbing the two of them today." ”

…………

"He's doing a great job...... You must have been practicing for a long time, right? ”

In the coffee shop, Huang Jingxi shook the paper cup carelessly, even if she added a spoonful of saccharin, she still felt bitter.

Is it a long time to practice? How the hell did he learn these moves?

You can't just watch and learn from the video on the stage, right?

Thinking of this, Jisoo propped his head and stared slightly at the phone screen.

"What are you thinking? Ernie doesn't seem to be out of shape lately. ”

"Oh, nothing, maybe it's too much of a game."

Press the power button to turn off the screen. Kim Jisoo pursed her lips and sighed towards the passers-by who hurried out the window: "The pace of life in Seoul is too fast, and in this big net of tens of millions of people, there is never anything that must be said by anyone, right?" ”

The sophomore seemed to notice something, and continued to drink coffee, the slightly wrinkled skin on his eyebrows, I don't know if it was because of the bitterness of the coffee, or other emotions......
