to the players' bench."Oh my gosh, he was actually telling the truth, he wasn't exaggerating at all." 。"Amongst the throng of fellow entertainers, Wu Shixun sat down after clapping and cheering, his s..."Hahaha..."

Ki Keiyuan and Mei Nan simultaneously spoke the same sentence, then they blinked at each other, a strange sense of tacit understanding instantly appearing around them. After a second's pause, their eyes curved up simultaneously, and they both laughed out loud.

Minami Namie in front of me is wearing a baseball cap, very youthful. However, the moment she laughs out loud, she becomes somewhat sweet. In Ji-yeong's eyes, when she smiles, her mouth stretches wide, revealing her gums.

She initially seemed very generous and didn't seem to care much, her eyes squinting into crescent moons as she smiled happily. But then, as if remembering something, her smile stopped halfway and she quickly buried her head, giving a slight shake that sent the hair by her cheek flying over to partially conceal herself. Coupled with the hand she kept tucked away in her sleeve, she appeared rather shy.

While Chi Jingyuan wore a mask, hiding his face, his smiling eyes shone brightly.

He immediately realized, through the other person's words and tone, that it mirrored his own experience from yesterday. He imagined the scene of the other person inviting friends to watch a movie, only to be ruthlessly rejected.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

And both had the same experience, they were fellow sufferers who could only watch movies alone out of loneliness. It was a stroke of luck that they happened to run into each other, and coincidentally, they knew each other.

The subtle feeling produced by this kind of telepathy and understanding is truly enjoyable.

"Are you going back to the company later"

A few seconds later, the smile faded. Chi Jingyuan looked at Ming Meinan standing beside him, showing no intention of leaving, and took the initiative to ask a question.

"Well, I have to go to class this afternoon and then practice..."

"Wow, you really took the time to come see the movie... Want to go back after dinner"

Chi Jingyuan felt that Nami Minami was busier than himself.

"Hmm..."

Nanami Minami seemed a little interested, but she pursed her lips and thought for two seconds before looking over with a slightly embarrassed expression: "Mi-a, if we eat, we might not have enough time... And because I'm preparing for my debut and managing my figure, the company doesn't let us eat some things recently..."

Speaking of which, she lightly licked the corner of her left mouth, as if remembering some kind of food.

"No carbs and no meat"

"Mm." Nami Minami nodded forcefully, Pool Jingyuan's simple question instantly resonated with her.

The company is very strict about their body management, weighing almost every day. If someone's weight exceeds the limit or they don't lose the predetermined amount, they will be criticized and receive corresponding punishment.

However, physique is one of the business skills for idols. They rely on this to make a living, so it's normal to have strict requirements, especially in preparation for their upcoming debut. Although it can be painful, it's acceptable.

And they actually often sneakily eat some themselves to satisfy their cravings.

"Well, never mind."

"That was just a casual remark," Chi Jingyuan shrugged and took the lead, gesturing with his hand, "Come on, let me walk you back."

"Huh"

Hearing this, Ming Weilong, who was about to lift his foot, stopped abruptly and looked at the other person with some surprise.

Since we ran into each other like this, it wouldn't be good for me to go have a meal. You should just take the subway home by yourself.

Ji Jingyuan stopped walking, turned around, and naturally waved his hand. "Anyway, I'm going back to the company later, and JYP is just on the way... It's the same whether I eat here or at the company."

He didn't ask 'Do you want me to send you back', but instead just told her to follow him.

"... Inside!"

Miki Namiki looked at Chikizakura again and then turned back, following the retreating figure towards the elevator. She blinked a few times and smiled before jogging after him.

"Recently, we had some free time, so yesterday I enthusiastically invited several members to come see it. As a result, no one was willing after talking for half a day, and some people even said harsh things there..."

"...I also invited sana and oo yesterday, they didn't say anything bad, but they said they weren't that interested either."

"They are not liked by the Japanese, are they"

"...Hehe."

Nanami Mingi wouldn't be like Ji-seong, complaining about teammates. She just smiled sweetly and a little clumsily.

This CGV cinema is on the fourth floor of a commercial plaza. After leaving the theater, they paused for a moment before taking the elevator downstairs. They chatted as they walked and soon reached the underground parking lot.

"By the way, what do you think of the movie *Doraemon: The Cosmic Heroes*"

The elevator doors opened, a blast of cold air hit them, the surrounding environment suddenly became much quieter, and their voices also became softer. While leading the way, Ji Jingyuan glanced at her and asked,

"Hmm..."

The girl didn't answer directly, but instead quietly raised her eyes to glance at Chi Jingyuan's expression, as if trying to gauge his opinion.

Although she hesitated for a moment, Naomi Iijima still spoke honestly: “I think it’s just average…”

Saying that, she glanced at Ji Jingyuan again: “Although some parts are funny, the rest of the plot is... a bit too childish. It's a bit too childish for me… Although it's meant for kids, the previous one was much better.”

"Indeed, this one was a bit too childish for me. I was a little disappointed after watching it. It makes sense that the Japanese forum reviews weren't great."

Originally, Nan through the recent contact, thought that Ji Jingyuan quite liked this drama, so she hesitated just now. She didn't expect him to nod in agreement with her evaluation, and at the same time looked over with some surprise: "axi, you also think 《Accompany Me》 is good looking"

"You also..." Naomi Minami opened her mouth.

"Haha..."

Two suppressed laughs echoed in the silent parking lot.

As he spoke, Chi Jingyuan stopped in front of a Porsche and reached into his bag for the keys. Meanwhile, Mingwei Nan, who had been following closely behind, stared at the white sedan with a puzzled expression. He paced back and forth, as if trying to figure out what it was.

"What's wrong" Noticing her movements, Ji Jingyuan turned his head and asked.

"Your car, no, not…" Nanami Nagi gestured with her hands twice, her voice somewhat muffled.

She knew the model of Chi Jingyuan's car, she had looked it up before, but at this moment, for some inexplicable reason, she didn't want to say it precisely.

"Oh, you're talking about that Mercedes"

Pool-view understood, turned back and continued to rummage for the keys: "That car was exposed last time, and many fans knew the model. Although the license plate wasn't released, this Mercedes model is already rare in Seoul. When I go out privately, sometimes fans try to follow me to see if it's me. It's both dangerous and troublesome, so I changed one a while ago..."

That exposure of the car model still caused him quite a bit of trouble. After encountering several instances of being followed by fans and stalkers, Ji Jingyuan changed cars when he went home last time, which is the white Porsche in front of you.

It's not a very expensive supercar, just an average model.

After explaining, Ji Jingyuan glanced at Nami Minami and found it interesting, so he casually said: “You’ve also seen that news… ”

"Uh, hmm."

Naomi Inamura smiled, but Ki-yeong didn't see it.

"Get in the car."

"Bang."

When the environment shifted from a bustling, public space filled with people to a quiet and private car interior with only two people inside, Minami Mamei, sitting in the passenger seat, also felt a sense of unease. As if being influenced by the atmosphere, she became noticeably less talkative and her voice softened considerably from the moment she got into the car.

Although she wasn't very talkative before.

But the contrast between this tension and shyness is still quite obvious.

And Chi Jingyuan felt a change in the girl after casually saying a couple of words. After noticing that she seemed a bit awkward and shy in this situation, he reached out and clicked a few times on the car's music player, starting to play Bigbang's several recent singles from the beginning.

He fell silent, no longer looking in that direction, and just drove quietly.

The entire journey was silent, only the music of "Loser" softly playing in the background.

The cinema was actually in Apgujeong, just a short distance from the JYP building address. It only took a few minutes to get there. Ji-yeong stopped his car at the intersection next door.

"Come on!"

"Thank you... goodbye."

"Bang."

With a soft voice of thanks, Nami Minami closed the car door and stood by the roadside waving goodbye. While Jingyuan Chi in the car also waved his hand, he then started the car and turned into the main road, driving towards a restaurant they frequented near S.

He hit a red light just two minutes into the drive. He leaned back against the headrest, one hand on the steering wheel and the other lightly scratching at his itchy cheek. Remembering the last silent stretch of the car ride, he suddenly laughed out loud.

To be honest, he used to have ordinary impressions of Nako Yabuki. Besides remembering that she was a well-mannered and beautiful idol trainee from Japan, the other keyword associated with her was "TWICE member."

Besides that, the previous help from cb and the phone calls a few months ago didn't really give him any particular opinion of Nami.

Maybe he didn't take it too seriously.

But things were a little different this time. This chance encounter today made Chi Jingyuan's memories of her much clearer all at once.

Although it may appear delicate on the outside, it has its own convictions deep within.

He could tell that the girl had some feelings for him, but she still declined his invitation to eat together.

"Later, Nan guessed that he probably liked this theatrical version quite a bit, but after hesitating for a moment, he honestly said that he thought it was just average."

Then she became a little shy. At first, it might have been because of the surprise and subtle atmosphere created by their chance encounter at the movie theater, which made her more lively and enjoyable.

Later, after the car door closed and the silence descended, she suddenly remembered that the two of them were not actually very familiar. Plus, she was sitting next to Chi Jingyuan, so she instantly returned to her usual self, becoming shy and awkward.

Although it was only a little over an hour together, and I still don't know her very well, at least the image of her in my heart has become much clearer.

Recalling the conversation they had while walking together just now, and that girl's somewhat restless look on the car as they parted ways, Chi Jingyuan smiled on his face while also feeling a touch of emotion in his heart.

No matter what, he's still a Doraemon fan after all...

……

"loser, loner, a cowardly show of strength..."

Minami Nanami changed her clothes, humming a tune as she walked into their practice room. By this time, most of the nine members were already there, and as soon as she entered, she was grabbed by Kasaki Sashana.

"Welcome back! How was the movie..."

Komatsuzaki Sashin walked up and pulled Minami to sit beside her. She leaned in, lightly sniffed the scent, and then whispered a couple of questions.

But soon, she seemed to notice something was amiss. She looked at Nan's face with a puzzled expression: "Why are you so happy and humming Was the movie good"

Actually, yesterday when Minami invited her to watch a movie, she kind of wanted to go because Minami doesn't often invite them out. On the contrary, every time they take the initiative to ask the extremely reclusive Minami out, they get rejected. So this time was actually quite rare.

She considered it but ultimately declined because she wasn't really interested in the play and her schedule was a bit tight. She had just finished watching it and needed to rush back for classes and practice.

She had a little regret after Namiko went alone, so she's been waiting for her to come back since then.

Upon hearing her friend's question, Naomi Minami's eyes flickered with memories.

Although Komatsubara Sazanami asked about the movie, she was thinking about a person.

This solo movie journey turned into a shared one at the end, and even now, Minami still finds it rather magical.

Since she got off the car, she had been in a good mood. She practically hummed all the way back, and although encountering Ji Jingyuan was a pleasant surprise, it wasn't the main reason for her happiness.

Although it was a joy to run into each other, it could only be considered a coincidence. What truly brought her happiness was the ease and harmony of their conversation and the unspoken understanding they shared afterward.

Especially after getting on the car, she felt something was wrong. Her heart beat faster, and she was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to do or say. When Ji Jingyuan noticed this, he immediately stopped talking. After finishing the music, he became quiet, which also relieved her and made her feel much more relaxed and at ease.

Although she has a good impression of him, her shy personality makes her act this way when facing unfamiliar people.

And this unspoken understanding of being taken care of, she truly enjoyed it.

"Movies"

Coming to her senses, Nanami Minai blinked and smiled.

"Very nice!"

"Oh, really Next time I want to go with you." Minazuki Saria heard this and wrapped her arms around the other person's arm, shaking them playfully and acting coquettishly.

Although he is older than the other person, he acts like a child.

"Hey hey, aren't you fond of watching this Next time, I won't bring you along."

"Please..."

……

"Red Velvet's comeback wasn't very successful this time, how come they aren't promoting much"

In EXO's practice room, the members who had just finished recording for their Neon album were lounging on the sofas and floor, chatting amongst themselves while scrolling through their phones. Taking a brief break before their next schedule. Baekhyun, seemingly having seen something interesting in the news, suddenly brought up Red Velvet.

They lost to Girls' Generation, who returned for their fifth week, on yesterday's Music Center.

"Girl groups are like this, unless they have a comeback that's a huge hit, then they don't have an advantage in a solo artist competition."

Jinjun Myeon explained very understandingly: “Besides your own achievements, you also have to look at the competition. Recently, there are seniors like GOT7's comeback, HyunA's solo, and BE's return, as well as the monster rookie iKON who got three awards this week, which is already pretty good.”

"...Well, I saw fnc's draft again. How come I can see Seonghwa everywhere now Wasn't her TV drama this year a ratings flop It flopped so badly that there's no end to it, how could she be so popular"

"The company is pushing her hard and giving her a lot of resources."

Overhearing a few people chatting nearby, Chi Jingyuan, who had just sent the text message, raised his head and said something fair: "You can't say that either. The company providing resources is only one side. The main reason is that she has attractive qualities... otherwise, why would some people be unable to become popular even if they were praised"

And don't you see, some of her *stuff* is easy to get.

After voicing his opinion, Chi Jingyuan lowered his head again and glanced at the message he had just received.

Because we're about to start filming, I have to practice until late every day these two days, and I still have to get up very early the next day... I feel like if this continues, I'm going to learn Nobita's secret technique soon.

"Sleep in seconds"

Chi Jingyuan instantly understood what the other party meant.

"Haha, yes. (Laughing)"

That day, after coincidentally running into each other and watching a movie together, Ki Jingyuan and Nami Minami seemed to be more familiar with each other than before. Their text message contact, which had been interrupted for a while, naturally resumed.

It's just that the frequency isn't high, we chat every few days, and usually just talk about ordinary things.

But this relaxed approach has actually made a lot of progress. It's much more natural than trying to show your presence by purposely making expressions before.

After replying, Chi Jingyuan put down his phone and prepared to join the discussion about Kim Se-ah that had started again beside him.

As for what Nam said, Ice knows that he's been practicing crazily lately because he's about to start filming a V.

Two days ago, Tzuyu complained to him about it.

He even knew that this vface needed to be filmed in one continuous shot...

But speaking of which, ice is filming a V now, so that means they should debut around mid-October.

And he was responsible for also debuting around the same time, Jin Tae-yeon solo.

I don't think we bumped into each other...

Ji Jingyuan suddenly remembered this, his face became a little strange. He was very confident in Taeyeon's solo comeback this time, and he didn't know what Tzuyu's expression would be like if they ran into each other directly.

"Ooh!"

"Bang."

Just then, Wu Shixun, who was sitting beside him, suddenly exclaimed in surprise and forcefully patted the floor, making a sharp cracking sound. In an instant, he interrupted the surrounding people's chatter and play, drawing everyone's attention.

While sitting closer to the pool, Chi Jingyuan was startled by the exclamation and jumped. He regained his composure and frowned before muttering, “Are you crazy Startling me like that!”

"Don't say this, you've been exposed! You can see for yourself!"

But Wu Shih-hsien seemed to have not heard at all, while shouting and shockingly slapping him several times in succession. He also took the phone from his hand and showed him the screen, constantly saying: "Someone exposed your relationship! They said it very clearly, but this isn't a big deal... The focus is that the photos came out, when were you photographed"

"But how come it's Taeyeon sunbae… isn't it Irene"
