Chapter Seventeen: The Tightrope-Walking Cat
Actually, Gao Yala said something wrong. Chu Jingyan loves to smile and is very good at various smiles. Whether it was in the Snake Palace or even earlier when he lived in Los Angeles, Chu Jingyan could get many things he needed with his harmless face and bright smile, accompanied by shallow dimples on his cheeks.
For example, a lunch, for example, tolerance after making trouble.
Many times, Chu Jingyan's behavior and demeanor made people feel puzzled. This habit came from being alone in Chinatown since childhood, relying on a likable mouth to please everyone, whether it was the SC couple running the Chinese restaurant downstairs or the white police officer responsible for that area. They were all charmed by Chu Jingyan, who would then receive small favors from them to sustain his life.
This habit has been retained until now, and can be reflected in all aspects of life. Chu Jingyan once said that the mouthfeel of a burning cigarette is more seductive than a woman's red lips. This sentence was ridiculed by Qi Qingrong for many years. How could an inexperienced young man have such feelings?
But Chu Jingyan still enjoyed it tirelessly. Who in this world doesn't have a little quirk? It's just that Chu Jingyan's quirks seemed stranger than others.
It can be said that a big part of the reason why Chu Jingyan has become more outgoing over the past year is because he ran into Tiffany again, who was once a dark and chubby fatty in Los Angeles but now has transformed completely.
Chu Jingyan, who had become less talkative over time, found that his chatty nature was gradually resurfacing. This was actually a good thing for him, as after many tedious tasks, Chu Jingyan enjoyed sitting with friends in front of the bright and clean glass window.
Going back to the topic, whether it's Sohee or Gahyeon, Cho Hyeon-ah is not of the same age group as them. With a 3-4 year age gap in Korea, she can be considered a senior, but regardless of whether it's Sohee, Gahyeon, or even Cho Hyeon-ah herself, when interacting with each other, both parties would forget about this small age difference.
Chu Jing didn't sleep all night, to be exact, after returning from the construction site to the company, he and Qi Qingrong rushed into the office, during which they called the department manager three times, and twice personally went to ask the director in charge of procurement and personnel control for details, so a whole day passed.
The ashtray was filled with cigarette butts, and Qi Qingrong lit the last cigarette from the pack and said: "One of the highlights of this project is the trade market between Seoul and S city. The sea transportation qualification that should have been smooth was somehow detained by the Seoul Customs."
Chu Jing thought for a moment and said: "If it's within the group, who would benefit more?"
"It's fundamentally impossible for anyone to benefit, so I'm really curious what went wrong. If we knew the reason, why would we still be sitting here like fools?"
This is a small fragment of their conversation. There are many such questions, as simple as building a house, but after the house is built, things will become incredibly complicated.
An all-nighter still couldn't clarify the complicated relationships and some of the money's whereabouts, Qi Qingrong finally exploded, claiming he hadn't had a good night's sleep since returning from Los Angeles, grabbed his suit jacket and made a run for it.
Chu Jing rubbed her sore eyes and thought that the Great Wall of China was not built in a day either, so she decided to go back and take a nap first.
Just after washing up and about to fall asleep, Xiaofei's phone call came over.
Chu Jing said viciously: "If you say there's no suitable reason, I'll spread all your previous photos online."
Xiao Feipo said with an air of innocence: "Have you forgotten that Taeyeon said she would return the favor for that meal?"
"Next time then." Chu Jing Yan had already tossed the phone aside.
Xiao Feipo said loudly: "Chu Jingyan, this is where you're wrong. Others have been taking what you said last time as a famous quote. To be honest, once we debut, we'll really be idols. You're now the idol of future idols. What's wrong with meeting your little fans?"
Chu Jingyan didn't expect that the few words he casually spouted would be taken seriously by that little kid who looked like a junior high school student, and actually put into practice. At the same time as feeling proud and arrogant in his heart, Chu Jingyan also began to remind himself: don't be arrogant in victory or discouraged in defeat, absolutely must not be complacent because of this matter.
Chu Jingyu thought to himself, it seems that he has a talent for teaching that surpasses ordinary people. No wonder Li Xiangzi, who used to set up a stall under the Tangren Street building, said that his destiny was to teach and educate people. It seems that this statement wasn't entirely wrong.
Thinking that if I ever meet that ugly-looking, money-grabbing, fortune-telling swindler again, I must return the ten dollars he stole from me. What a kind and grateful person I am.
Wait a minute, since Li Mangzi is living by cheating people, stealing his money can be considered as robbing the rich to help the poor, why return it to him?
Thinking of this, Chu Jingyan felt a sense of pride and admiration for himself, realizing that he had always been rich in a sense of justice since childhood, and despite being influenced by his surroundings over the years, he had not become corrupted. It seemed that he was indeed a kind-hearted person who could emerge from the mire unsoiled and wash away the dirt to reveal a slightly playful and charming personality.
Thinking of this, Chu Jingyan got up from the bed, thinking that he couldn't let his idol's image have a stain in the heart of his first little fan, and at the same time, Chu Jingyan also found out that he was actually a good person.
Cheongdam-dong has many cafes, and some of them are favorite places for trainees from nearby entertainment companies to visit. Without exception, they all offer affordable prices with good food and drinks. Tiffany and Taeyeon chose one such cafe.
The first step in saving Chu Jingyan's soul from falling into hell is to let him feel the beauty of life and the longing for a better future that people around him have.
This is Tiffany's battle plan for this operation.
If Chu Jingyan knew that just a moment ago, he was still self-proclaimed to be kind and pure, but the next moment, two girls were thinking about how to save his fallen and dirty soul, what would he think.
The world is big, Seoul is small.
Chu Jingyan raised his head and looked at the store name, confirmed that there was no mistake, and then walked in.
His gaze involuntarily turned to the coffee shop, searching for Xiaofei's figure. Then Chu Jingyan saw Gaoyala, and his originally drowsy eyes seemed to be charging like a mobile phone, gradually gaining color. Every man remembers the girl who danced with him in the first dance of life.
Moreover, Chu Jingyan was stepped on by Gao Ya no less than five times.
Li Yunxi saw Chu Jingyan truly smile for the first time, even if it was just a slight curve at the corner of his mouth. He raised an eyebrow and said: "What a youthful and vibrant coffee shop, yet you're wearing such an old-fashioned suit. Does he not have any other clothes besides suits? It seems that calling him 'mister' is indeed not wrong."
Gao Yala smiled and said: "Tall people look good in suits, it's only natural."
Regarding the confession made by Gao Ya La earlier, Li Yun Xi still couldn't believe it. From her own expectations and requirements for men, Chu Jing Yan obviously shouldn't be the kind of person Gao Ya La should like.
A rich family's daughter, a promising actress with a bright future, a good girl in her family's eyes, and a good student in the eyes of her classmates. This three-good student, Li Yunxi, knows more about Dongfang International than Gao Yala does. She has heard something about this multinational conglomerate founded by overseas Chinese.
Chu Jingyan was very young and had already started working under the president at a very young age. What he had experienced, what he had done, Gao Yaluo knew nothing about it, so Li Yunxi felt that it was dangerous.
"Are you going to tell him?"
Gao Ya shook her head and said: "I've always thought that liking someone is a two-way thing."
"What does it mean?"
Gaoyala's face turned slightly red, and she said: "Sister, although it's hard to see, I actually have a strong sense of self-respect. Pursuing this kind of thing, in my heart, I still think that men should take the initiative more."
Li Yunxi let out a sigh of relief.
Chu Jingyuan pushed open the door and walked in, looking at Gao Yaluo with a smile and said, "What a coincidence."
Gao Yala smiled and replied: "This is the fourth time."
Chu Jingyu was taken aback for a moment, then immediately understood what Gao Yala meant and said, "Indeed, it's the fourth time."
She turned her head and looked around, but didn't see Soo-young and Tae-yeon. Ga-young asked, "Are you waiting for someone?"
Chu Jing nodded slightly.
"Girlfriend?"
Gao Ya suddenly felt her heart beating a little faster, then looked at Chu Jingyan. Chu Jingyan shook his head: "Just friends."
"Chu Jingyan." someone called out.
Xiao Feipo and Jintaiyan walked to Chu Jingyan's side, looked at Gao Yala and Li Yunxi sitting in their seats, then looked at Chu Jingyan again and asked: "Do you know each other?"
Chu Jing nodded and said, "I know."
Li Yunxi was also surprised and pointed at Xiaofei Po and Kim Taeyeon, asking Chu Jingyan: "Do you know them?"
Chu Jingyan nodded again and said, "I know."
"You know a lot of women."
Chu Jing Yan didn't expect to see so many people at the same time, and said: "I don't know many women, it's just that I happened to run into all of them together."
It seems like all the women Choo Jin-woo knows in Seoul have gathered here.
Chu Jingyan sat down at a round table, looked at Gao Ya and Li Yoon-hee, then looked at Xiao Feipo and Kim Tae-yeon, not knowing what to say.
The atmosphere is a bit strange, which has something to do with Chu Jingyan.
After a long time, Chu Jingyan who didn't know what to say finally spoke up: "Tiffany is a friend I met in Los Angeles and we reconnected again a year ago."
"Miss Ya La, uh, how should I put it, it seems like it's not that easy to say." Chu Jingyan felt that his eloquence was somewhat inadequate.
Gao Yala glanced at Chu Jingyan, thinking to herself that this man also had times when he couldn't control the situation, and then spoke up: "In the past, Brother Jingyan helped me a lot, and after coming and going, we became friends."
Chu Jing blinked and said, "Brother Jing?"
Li Yunxi glanced at Gao Yala and thought that this was what she meant by having a strong sense of self-respect, and that men should take the initiative first.
The atmosphere is subtle like a cat walking on a tightrope.
