Chapter Eighty-Eight: Let's Chat

were told that they would apologize to the other party with the president.When they heard the news, they were still a little puzzled. Although yesterday was indeed their manager's full responsibility,..."What a coincidence"

After their gazes met, Jung Soo-jung tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and spoke first. Her voice sounded calm, but there was something else brewing beneath the surface.

And when Qi Jingyuan raised his head and saw her, although his expression didn't show anything unusual, he also paused slightly, and a sudden feeling of emotion arose in his heart.

Wow, it feels like it's been a while since we last met.

Since last year when Jung Soo Yeon left Girls' Generation and s, because Ji Kyung Won didn't intervene to help Jung Soo Yeon with this matter, even though the two had a serious talk later, it didn't ease the tension. There was still some distance between them. After that, Jung Seong knew whether she was being stubborn or letting go, anyway, she didn't contact him again in the following time.

While Chi Jingyuan was actually feeling a little awkward inside, he didn't say anything either. He wasn't the kind of person who was very proactive.

Every day's work is so busy, contacting so many people and things. After a period of no contact, it seems that everything gradually fades away. Then everything returns to normal, although Park Bo-gum did arrange for someone to take care of Jung Soomin in some ways at the company, he really never took the initiative to contact again.

Even though we work at the same company, our accidental encounters are rare. However, on the few occasions we do meet, there's nothing particularly special about them. It's just a quiet glance, a brief greeting, and then we pass each other by.

I don't know what Jung Soo-jeong is thinking, but for Ji Kyung-won, this kind of thing is actually quite normal. The original purpose of the story wasn't very pure to begin with, and without enough emotional foundation, after the passion faded, the feeling slowly disappeared, eventually fading into indifference. He has already experienced this many times.

Entertaining stories of romance between men and women in the entertainment industry are also like this.

But today Zheng Xiujing took the initiative to walk over and greet him. From the timing of her arrival, Li Jingyuan could tell that she had been observing from the side for a while. Although he didn't know her intentions, he didn't think too much about it. Instead, seeing his "old friend" actually made his mood better.

After the greetings, Zheng Xiujing seemed to not know what to say. Although she had come over on her own initiative, she stood beside him awkwardly at this moment. A feeling of awkwardness and entanglement began to slowly form around the two of them.

"Only Ji Jingyuan laughed, his sunny face didn't have the slightest awkward feeling like the other party. Looking at Zheng Xiujing's bridge of nose and eyebrows, he waved his hand casually: "What a coincidence, are you filming, Krystal Come sit down."

“......”

The slightly stagnant atmosphere just now was instantly dispelled, and Zheng Xiujing, who had been a bit stiff after the greeting, also relaxed. After seeing Ji Kyeong-won's smiling eyes, she also chuckled softly and gently sat down after adjusting her skirt.

This boy's vibe is just as good as I remember...

"What do you mean, call me Krystal" she looked over with a smile in her eyes, but both her demeanor and expression were slightly awkward. However, it seemed like she was trying to find some of the old feelings.

"In public places like this, with so many people around, of course you'd use your stage name, right, Soo-jeong" Ki-won smiled and nodded, then naturally lowered his gaze to her calves and casually asked, "How do you even wear heels this high They must be at least ten centimeters! Doesn't it get tiring"

"...as he required, saying that today there is a high chance of winning the prize..."

Speaking of this, she curled her lip and couldn't tell if it was disdain or delight. At the same time, she glanced down, moving her toes painted with bright red nail polish.

There isn't too much melancholy and pain tangled up, after all, so much time has passed. From last September to now, it's already been eight or nine months.

Of course, it's also possible that it was buried in my heart. After all, this is a public social occasion now, and words and expressions all need to be controlled.

The atmosphere gradually relaxed after a few sentences from Chi Jingyuan. The two of them chatted like ordinary friends, as if they were just colleagues from the same company casually chatting and socializing together.

Compared to Ji Jingyuan's natural demeanor, Zheng Xiujing clearly had other thoughts. After chatting for a few minutes, when the time was almost up, her eyes hesitated for a moment, she pondered for two seconds and looked over, tentatively asking: "Do you have time after the Baeksang Awards banquet tonight... to chat"

In fact, I had already thought she would say that. However, Ji Jingyuan didn't show any intention of refusing. After thinking about his schedule for a while, he smiled and nodded: "Okay...a little later."

"Hmm."

Because of the awards ceremony today, there was naturally no time for dinner. In order to make the beautiful and form-fitting dresses look good, many actresses can even start dieting and shaping their bodies a long time in advance, hoping that they will be more photogenic at today's Baeksang Awards, which is a very important event with high exposure.g-won looked at the reply from Pei Joo-hyet, thought for a moment and ignored the strange looks from Wu Shixun and Do Kyungsoo beside him. He spoke into the microphone, mimicking his own voice, and ga...
