"Also, why does your perfunctory half-face photo have so many likes and comments?"

The more he looked at Chi Jingyuan's Instagram data, the more unhappy he became. Yesterday, he carefully took a few photos and uploaded them. He also interacted with fans who left messages several times. The person next to him fiddled with it casually, not even looking for the angle to take the picture, which was ridiculous.

After I uploaded the photo, I went to play games and ignored it completely. Now I see that it has received so many likes from fans...

Why?

Facing the dissatisfaction and jealousy of the members next to Wu Shixun, Chi Jingyuan looked around, licked his lips, and winked at them:

"Maybe it's because... I'm good-looking?"

"go to hell!"

…………

After the dream concert on the 7th, EXO started to run their schedule. Because of the previous concert, many of their things and invitations were postponed to the past few days, and all their daily activities were suddenly scheduled.

It's packed to the brim.

In addition to the team schedule, a considerable amount of time is spent on personal resources that many members have also developed one after another, such as Kim Junmyun and Byun Baekhyun's "Inkigayo" MC, Byun Baekhyun's own musical,

Park Chanyeol's "Roommate", Kim Jong-in's fashion magazine shooting, etc.

It is worth mentioning that Kim Jong-in is very popular with some fashion magazine editors in Peninsula. Among EXO, he is second only to Ji Kyung-won in terms of resources in this area. Since his debut, he has taken photos for several magazines.

Then I started filming Do Kyung Soo’s TV series.

Do Kyung-soo finally received the resources for the TV series and was very serious and hard-working. Although he is not the protagonist, he has been reading scripts and studying them in his free time. He often consults with Ji Kyung-won about acting methods and techniques. He has become a bit crazy lately.

Startled.

The TV series he accepted is called "It's Okay, It's Love". It is an SBS drama co-written by Jo In-sung and Gong Hyo-jin. Both the cast and the crew, the director and the screenwriter are very strong, and Do Kyung-soo's character is considered a male.

The role of three men and four men is already very good for him who is appearing in a TV series for the first time.

When the drama was originally being cast, most of the EXO members except Ji Kyung Won attended the audition. In the end, Do Kyung Soo was chosen and successfully took the first step towards becoming an actor.

The reason why Chi Jingyuan didn't go is because he is already recognized as a representative actor of the younger generation. This role of three men and four men does not match his current identity, and the age gap between him and the protagonist is too big for him to be.

To replace Jo In Sung, even though SBS invited him, SM did not let him go without care.

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

Chi Jingyuan has also read the script of this drama, and he feels that it is quite good. Although it lacks some potential to become a big hit, the ratings should not be very low.

However, filming a TV series during a concert schedule is really a torture. First of all, you have to negotiate the time with the crew. Do Kyung-soo also has to travel back and forth between the crew and the mainland of China. She sleeps for less than a few hours every day.

It can be considered a real risk.

I don’t know what other companies are like, but SM, currently the biggest cash cow, never refuses EXO members to receive personal resources. On the contrary, they will actively provide a lot of personal resources to help members develop.

Chi Jingyuan has been focusing on advertising and promotion these days. Because of his appearance and temperament, family reasons, and the popularity of TV series, especially because of the TV series "The Heirs",

His personal advertising resources are ranked first in the entire SM company, and the entire EXO combined does not have as many ads as him alone.

Many advertisements not only require shooting, but also have many follow-up responsibilities after the shooting, such as cooperating with publicity, providing product support, etc.

He has been so busy in the past few days working on the backlog of announcements that he has never touched the ground.

In the past two days, there have been new developments between Wu Saike and Big Hit. He spoke out through the media and SNS in Xia Kingdom. In addition to reiterating the legitimacy and rationality of his escape, he also spread it on many SNS through his marketing account.

He received a lot of news and uploaded many photos of him being ostracized and isolated to prove himself.

But Chi Jingyuan also took the time to look at those photos. Most of them were photos of him and other members chatting lively together during the trip, while he was sitting alone next to them. With the accompanying text, they looked quite desolate.

However, Chi Jingyuan, as an expert, knows very well that this kind of photos are too common. He himself often plays game consoles by himself during the trip. The same goes for other members. They often play with mobile phones or think about things alone.

You can easily find a lot of these 'exclusion pictures' among photos of EXO.

Although this kind of out-of-context picture is ridiculous when you think about it, a group of Wu's fans really believed it and began to change their stance and speak out for him on the Internet, making various remarks in support of him.

It's just that the photos alone are not very convincing, and I don't know if Wu Sike really has other shocking information in his hand because he gave so many eye-catching reasons when he sued.

After a few days, the popularity of this matter in the peninsula is slowly decreasing. Except for BTS fans, other passers-by are paying less attention. After all, BTS is now a second- and third-tier group. Although Wu is a popular member

But it's not that high. Bighit is just a small company.

But Chi Jingyuan found on the mainland that Xia Guo's popularity was still quite high. There were all kinds of breaking news posts, clarifying posts, whitewashing posts, supporting posts, and insulting posts, which made him enjoy watching them.

It has turned into a wonderful soap opera.

Amidst all the turmoil, June 12th arrived.

The temperature has obviously increased a lot in the past two days. It is estimated to be 30 degrees today. The sun is hanging in the sky and baking the ground, making people feel very hot. It is the afternoon and there are not many roads nearby.

pedestrian.

Chi Jingyuan was wearing white and blue Fatty co-branded short-sleeved shorts and sneakers, carrying a shoulder bag, a mask and a Doremon baseball cap and other camouflage suits. He stood under the shade of a tree beside the alley near the JYP building, holding

A message was sent on the phone.

After waiting for about ten minutes, Zhou Ziyu appeared in Chi Jingyuan's field of vision. She walked quickly from the direction of the JYP building. When she saw Chi Jingyuan's figure, she smiled suddenly and sped up.

He trotted over quickly, swinging his legs.

She was wearing a black T-shirt and sweatpants. The T-shirt had a silly smiling pattern of a baby bear drawn on it, which was so childish.

Her hair was not tied up. It was originally flowing smoothly on both sides of her head, but as she started running, it became messy along the way.

Zhou Ziyu ran to Chi Jingyuan, first smiled at him, and then quickly lowered his head to straighten the messed up hair with a slight breath.

She rushed to the company after school at noon. After taking a vocal class, she has been practicing dancing in the practice room. During her break, she suddenly received a message from Chi Jingyuan asking if she was in the company and was free. She was stunned for a moment.

I quickly replied.

Then I became a little anxious.

Although he sends several messages every few days, Zhou Ziyu and Chi Jingyuan have not met in real life since the last concert.

At that time, she rejected the suggestion from Kong Xue's two friends to contact Chi Jingyuan to go backstage, but in fact she really wanted to get closer because the shock she felt after watching the performance 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. After talking to her friend, she hurried over, feeling a little happy and expectant along the way.

"Why are you running in such a hurry?"

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

"

This is a wrapped gift box, which doesn't look very big. The black wrapping paper is neatly wrapped with a light pink ribbon.

“…”

Zhou Ziyu's expression changed slightly. After a moment of dullness, he took it with a happy face. He looked at it carefully and looked up at Chi Jingyuan with a deliberately confused look: "Why are you giving me a gift?"

"Isn't your birthday on June 14th? Did I remember it wrong?" Chi Jingyuan frowned and looked at her.

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

Zhou Ziyu crossed his arms and held the gift box on his chest. Zhou Ziyu looked at Chi Jingyuan, blinking his big eyes, and his pupils looked a little incomprehensible.

"Didn't you mention it once when we were chatting last year? I wrote it down at the time..."

Chi Jingyuan curled 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? I have been mentioning every few text messages sent in the past two days.

On June 14th...are you hinting? Tzuyuxi, you have already made it clear, okay? Can you please stop being so childish and treating me as an idiot?"

"...Pfft...hehehehehehe..." Zhou Ziyu pursed her lips and held it in for a while, her entire face stiffened, and after a few twitches at the corners of her mouth, she finally couldn't hold back her laughter.

Her eyes were crooked, and her smiling mouth showed neat little white teeth. Although she looked a bit silly, her whole face was obviously filled with happy emotions. Her face showed both joy and the feeling that her tricks were ignored.

Sorry to expose the little embarrassment.

The hair that had been messed up due to running had just been sorted, and now a few dull hairs were unknowingly sticking up on her head. Together with that pure smile, Zhou Ziyu's whole person looked very lively.

"Well, I won't be free on June 14th. We have a concert in Xia Guojiang City that day. It's probably the 15th or 16th when I get back. I'll give you the gift in advance."

Chi Jingyuan couldn't help laughing when he saw her happy look, shook his head and explained.

"Thank you, Jingyuan Xi!" Zhou Ziyu smiled sweetly at her.

"Okay, I'll leave first after the gift is given. You should go back quickly and be careful not to get caught by the teacher." Chi Jingyuan didn't mean to talk more. After handing the gift to her, he left.

"Ah, are you leaving so soon?"

Zhou Ziyu's smile faded when he heard this, and he said anxiously: "How about... how about I buy you a drink."

"No need, we are flying to Xia Country in the evening. I have an advertising case to run later, so I took some time to walk over here. The agent is still waiting for me..."

Chi Jingyuan shook his hand, smiled at her, said goodbye and turned around to walk in the direction of SM.

Looking at the back of Chi Jingyuan who left neatly, Zhou Ziyu was a little unresponsive and opened his mouth to say something, such as 'goodbye' and 'come on'.

But before she could think of what to say, Chi Jingyuan, who had walked three or four meters away, suddenly turned around, blinked, looked at her, waved her hand, and said with a smile: "By the way, I almost forgot to say...Happy birthday

, it shouldn’t matter if it’s two days in advance.”

"I'm leaving."

Without waiting for Zhou Ziyu to respond, he turned around again and walked forward, waving his hands casually behind him, and gradually quickened his pace.

Until the end, Zhou Ziyu didn't think about what to say. She just held the gift tightly, stood in the shade of the tree, pursed her lips, and stared at Chi Jingyuan's leaving back with her big eyes until he disappeared around the corner.
Chapter completed!
