, at first glance, she looks like a teenager in junior high school.And there's still some baby fat on her face, besides that...her skin is a little darker.This is Chi Jingyuan's first impression of he...Originally, when someone laughs and shows their upper gums, it can seem awkward and somewhat unrefined. However, this is not the case with Minami now. Her genuine smile radiates cuteness and purity, coupled with her natural and joyful eyes. It involuntarily brings to mind the most beautiful time of year.

"Why are you smiling so beautifully"

Seeing the other person so happy, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but smile. He tilted his head and joked with the other person: "You made me embarrassed to laugh."

"...Hee hee..." Perhaps after a quick shift in emotions, she was flustered by the straightforward praise. Nami's smile couldn't help but take on a touch of Tzuyu-like naivety, and she felt a little embarrassed.

"...He said a couple of things, then Chi Jingyuan pointed at his phone and returned to the group: "MiniXi, you haven't answered me yet, can we exchange contact information"

"Ah, yes!" Nanami Minami came to her senses and nodded eagerly like a rabbit. She quickly took out her phone from her pocket and skillfully swiped the screen to unlock it.

His gaze lingered for a moment on her slender fingers and the delicately painted nails, and Chi Jingyuan read out, "My number is 010xxxxxxxx."

Mei Nan typed quickly and then directly clicked to call. Two seconds later, Chi Jingyuan's phone buzzed, and the music "GimmethatGimmethatIceCream" rang out in the resting room.

The chorus of 《icecreamcake》, this is still the ringtone he changed last month because he supported redvelvet, but after using it for over a month now he's getting tired of it. These past two days he's been preparing to find a new song to replace it.

After seeing the incoming call from Chi Jingyuan hang up, he entered Nan Mi's name and clicked save. Seeing that the other party had also completed the save and sent a look over, he looked up, thought for a second, twitched his mouth and asked: "Do you need to add Kakao account"

"Mm."

She smiled and nodded.

After adding each other as friends on their messaging apps, the two of them had officially fulfilled the promises and agreements made during their chance encounter at the showcase.

Originally, her mood was like a rollercoaster, going from bad to good. Now, Minami felt overjoyed, light as a feather. Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly remembered something, subtly restraining her smile and looking at Ji Jingyuan with anticipation: "Jingyuan, xi, I… are you usually very busy"

Pool Kyung-won, as well as the members of EXO, have mentioned this in many variety shows. It's probably because of his popularity and appearance that Pool Kyung-won has a very good reputation in the industry and is very popular. Many people often ask him to exchange contact information, but even after exchanging, he frequently doesn't reply. He simply does it out of social courtesy.

‘Getting too close can lead to misunderstandings, and being too far apart can make people feel distant. If you don't know what to say, you just don't reply.’ As someone who often paid attention to Chi Jingyuan, she naturally knew the other person’s habit. She remembered watching that segment on a variety show before and couldn’t help but laugh, but she never expected it would happen to her now.

Chi Jingyuan also understood what the other party meant. Nami Minami wasn't asking if he was busy, but whether he would reply.

He didn't dodge the question and simply nodded: "It's true that sometimes work can be really busy, so I estimate that there are times when I don't get back to things promptly..."

"But I will definitely watch it when I have time."

Speaking of which, Nan Minami was still one of the very few contacts in his extensive phone list who had "actively" requested to exchange contact information.

Chi Jingyuan didn't expect that the Japanese trainee he had helped out at a club by chance, someone who cried easily and whom he thought he would never see again after a brief encounter, would have so many coincidental encounters and interactions afterwards.

That's quite interesting.

"I understand," came the reply. Nanami Minami's heart leaped with joy, she pursed her lips and blinked her eyes quickly and lightly.

"Alright, you better head back now. If any staff sees us later, your company can't control me, but you're definitely going to get scolded." After glancing at the time, Ki Jingyuan expressed his concern and saw Nami nod in agreement. He then stood up proactively and sent her out. Watching as she skipped away like riding a horse for a few steps before vanishing into the 'major' break room door without opening it directly, he paused, turned to look at Ki Jingyuan, gave him a 'bye-bye' gesture with his mouth, and then swung the door open and went inside.

With a smile, Chi Jingyuan chuckled and shook his head. He closed the door and went back to sit on the sofa.

"Bye..."

…………

"It's really speechless."

In the living room of the ‘major’ group's dormitory in , after finishing the program recording, both groups first returned to the company and prepared for next week's theme for a while. As the sky darkened, they separately took their nanny cars back to their respective dormitories. After filming some behind-the-scenes footage and rea, finally, the entire day’s shooting work came to an end. As soon as the camera was turned off and the staff left, everyone sat on the sofa and hadn't even had time to catch their breath or stretch before relaxing. Lim Na Yeon immediately couldn't help but complain in a low voice to several friends sitting on the sofa with her, especially Yoo Jungyeon.

"It's obvious that he's showing favoritism, everyone knows he knew Tzuyu before. I thought their relationship was just average, but this is way too blatant... saying 'it's about choosing an idol, not a singer', please, it sounds so good. Just thinking about it makes me angry..."

Lim Nayoung's face was full of discontent. She frowned and pouted, her expression vivid and even a bit exaggerated. Towards the end, it seemed like she recalled the scene from when they were filming, as well as Ji Kyeongwon's expression when making his choice and her own awkwardness. Unable to contain her anger, she leaned back on the sofa and rolled her eyes dramatically.

"You already know the reason, so why are you still so angry The person was acquainted beforehand, it's normal to be a bit biased, isn't it If I were the judge, I would definitely choose you if you competed."

Yu Dingyan thought it was quite normal for Jiyeong to choose the position, he didn't care much. He patted Lin Na Yeon on the back a couple of times and comforted her in a soft voice: "Besides, PDnim and Tzuyu weren't they both picked you Anyway, entering major doesn't really matter."

At Yu Dingyan's nonchalant tone, Lin Na-yeon immediately became a little indignant. She widened her eyes and said while gesturing with her hands to express her anger: "How could you be indifferent You don't even know how miserable I was at the time."

"Well, why didn't you just tell them to their face back then"

"Oh, do you think I'm stupid" She rolled her eyes again, frowning and pouting as she swore, "Seriously, I get so angry just seeing him now! From now on, I won't watch any EXO MV, listen to their music, or even read about them!"

When Yu Dingyan heard this, he burst into laughter and pointed to the television screen which was currently playing a milk advertisement featuring Chi Jingyuan. Looking at the other's familiar face, he chuckled mischievously, "Well, not watching the MV is still acceptable, but not listening to their songs or reading about them would be quite difficult."

"Ahhhhhhh..."

Lin Na-yeon glanced at him, the person she disliked most right now. Unable to help herself, she immediately jumped up and shouted, frantically covering her head and rolling on the couch. Yu Ding-yeon and Park Ji-hyo beside her looked at each other, shrugged helplessly. ordinary departure, but like Wu, he left in a decisive manner through a lawsuit.Since its rise, EXO has become ** Entertainment's latest pillar and cash cow. Its revenue in recent quarters accounted...
