Chapter 1099 By Chance

“Oppa!!”

Minatozaki Sana really couldn't bear it anymore, she screamed with murderous intent and glared at Chi Jingyuan fiercely. With her eyebrows and open upper teeth, it was no problem to say that she was possessed by a Shiba Inu.

After staring for a few seconds, she seemed to not want to waste it. She quickly reached out and picked up a few fruits and stuffed them into her mouth. Her cheeks bulged. While chewing, she snorted angrily. She wiped the watermelon juice from the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand and said in a sharp but vague voice: "I won't talk to you anymore!"

After saying that, she jumped down from the high stool, shook her butt and turned away. As her ponytail swung back and forth and her bare feet stepped on the ground, the rustling sound spread from near to far.

Just as she was about to turn the corner, she suddenly stopped, turned around and glared at Chi Jingyuan, pouting her lips fiercely and showing her teeth. Seeing Chi Jingyuan's expression of being unable to hold back, she frowned, turned around and left lightly.

In fact, she was not that angry at all, she just felt a little embarrassed. Now that she had left, a lot of strange emotions suddenly emerged in her heart.

After knowing each other for so long, this was the first time she and Chi Jingyuan spent time together in private. It was also the first time she discovered that this oppa really had a bad taste.

Recalling her most profound memory, the time when she fell off the stage at MBC and that oppa taught those staff members a lesson in a domineering manner to protect her, and comparing it with the lazy and childish Ji Jingyuan just now, she felt it was a little funny, but at the same time she felt that the image in her mind had become more vivid.

However, "Minatozaki Sana and the Shiba Inu" is clearly a very cute, lively, and heartwarming metaphor. She really feels that she and the Shiba Inu have a lot in common, and "thought about it seriously" is not just a casual remark.

But Chi Jingyuan attacked people as soon as he opened his mouth, saying that he was jealous, stubborn, clingy, and had strong potential for attack...

Thinking of the words he just used to comment, Minatozaki Sana felt a wave of dissatisfaction.

As she was thinking, her pace slowed down unconsciously. She blinked her bright but puzzled eyes and fell into a state of deep thought.

Really, it looks like...

……

On the other side, Chi Jingyuan held back his laughter as he watched Minatozaki Sana, who was a little defenseless, turn around and leave. He picked up the last two mangoes and ate them happily.

He felt that this girl was quite interesting. She was apparently a very smart and shrewd girl. She did everything well and had high demands on herself.

But there are actually fantasies that only three-year-old children have. Who would specifically think about what kind of animal they were in their previous life?
Are you trying to create a contrast?
Thinking of Minatozaki Sana's serious look just now, he really couldn't help but want to laugh.

However, when he saw her suddenly turn around and glare at him with bared teeth, Chi Jingyuan inexplicably felt somewhat familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere before.

After thinking about it for a while, he remembered that Lin Nayeon seemed to be howling like that two days ago, as if she was biting someone from a distance.

This made him speechless. He found that the members of Twice were like animals and even liked to bite people.

Lim Nayeon is like this, and you can't usually tell that Minatozaki Sana also has this problem.

Also, when Zhou Ziyu was in front of him, she would show her little fangs when she was anxious, and she secretly bit him several times when he couldn't see from behind. Don't think he doesn't know.

Speaking of Chou Tzu-yu...

Chi Jingyuan suddenly thought of the owner of the pair of small canine teeth... They really hadn't been in contact for the past few days, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

Forget it. The child is throwing a tantrum and he can’t join in. Otherwise, he would be as childish as the other person.

He immediately adjusted himself mentally and decided not to leave in a hurry. He took out his cell phone and sent a text message to Zhou Ziyu, wanting to see if she was free in the next two days so they could go out for dinner together.

But after I sent the text message, there was no response, and I waited for a long time but there was no reply.

Chi Jingyuan was a little impatient, and just when he stood up and prepared to leave, his cell phone finally rang.

When he looked down, his face changed instantly.

"(unhappy) Who are you?"

Chi Jingyuan's mouth twitched and he gritted his teeth.

This black girl really deserves a bite!
…………

Officially returning to work, he holds choreography meetings every morning, collaborates with Mingjing Minami from afternoon to evening, practices dance with EXO, and prepares for the new album. At night, Chi Jingyuan goes to the gym until the early morning. His originally leisurely life suddenly becomes busy and orderly.

Especially fitness activities in the evening have now become an indispensable part of Chi Jingyuan's life. And maybe because Twice has more time at night recently, he can often meet Minatozaki Sana whenever he goes there. On the second day, he also met Hirai Momo and Nai Minami who followed him there specially after hearing the news.

Sometimes they would just greet each other with a smile, and sometimes they would sit down and chat for a while. After a few days, Chi Jingyuan and the two Japanese girls, especially Minatozaki Sana, became much more familiar with each other.

In the regular and fulfilling busyness, a few days passed quickly and it was March 3th.

SM Building, in the music room.

"…No problem, this is the version."

Chi Jingyuan carefully read through the music score in his hand from beginning to end, then his expression relaxed under Bae Joo-hyun's expectant eyes, and he smiled and nodded.

"Yeah!!"

Bae Joo-hyun, who had been staring at him, screamed with joy when she heard the words, and even jumped twice on the spot in excitement. Her long hair playfully swung back and forth on her face, but she didn't care at all. She used both hands to vigorously smooth down her scattered black hair, revealing a fair face with a blush of excitement.

Although I had actually expected it before, after all, he said it was almost there when I showed it to Chi Jingyuan last time, but when the lyrics I wrote were approved by Chi Jingyuan, the joy in my heart was so great that I almost flew away.

Although she wrote the lyrics of this song because of her own little thoughts, she wanted to take this opportunity to get closer to Chi Jingyuan and communicate more through work.

But after really getting started, she also took this job very seriously. Because it was her first time trying to write lyrics, she was learning a lot of things as a complete novice. It was still Red Velvet's comeback period at the time, and she often kept thinking in the gaps between schedules. She also continued to think about the lyrics in the dormitory after get off work.

Up to now, she has been writing the lyrics of this song for nearly a month and a half. From knowing nothing at the beginning, she can now write satisfactory lyrics on her own. Looking at the lyrics in Chi Jingyuan's hand, she felt a great sense of accomplishment when she saw that the lyrics she had invested so much emotion and effort into were recognized by others.

Seeing Bae Joo-hyun who was somewhat out of control in front of him, Ji Jingyuan did not disturb her, but just smiled and shared her joy. He knew very well how much effort Bae Joo-hyun had put into this song during this period of time. Not counting the phone calls and meetings, there were hundreds of text messages sent in the meantime.

Although the young lady's questions did make him a little impatient sometimes, he also enjoyed the feeling of being a teacher.

...and he was actually quite happy for Bae Joo-hyun.

The idol profession actually has many limitations and a narrow path for development. As you get older, there aren't many options left except switching to acting or pursuing solo careers.

Although switching careers from songwriter to producer is stable and can earn a lot of money, and is the dream of many idols, it is honestly difficult. Firstly, there are no resources or anyone to introduce them, and secondly, there is no talent.

This time, the song "kingdom come" was finally completed. Although Ji Jingyuan helped a lot and gave a lot of guidance, he could testify that most of them were Bae Joo-hyun's ideas, especially the most essential lyrics, which were completely Bae Joo-hyun's own personal inspiration. Even if it were him, it would be difficult to write a better one.

So this also proves that she has the ability, or talent. Although she can't be a producer now, at least she can try more in this area in the future... At least, next time if there is a chance, Chi Jingyuan will ask her to help write lyrics.

"If you are free tomorrow, come and record a demo. After that, I will submit these two songs to you."

After Pei Zhuxuan vented her joy, Ji Jingyuan looked at her and said with a smile.

"Shall I record it?" Bae Joo-hyun pointed at herself, ready to make a move.

"Of course, it's just right for you to record the song for you."

Chi Jingyuan sorted out the music score in his hand: "But the styles of your song "Kingdom Come" and "You Better Know" are quite different. It is possible that they will not be included in the same album. But I will talk to the producer and see if there is a chance."

“…Then can I sign the lyrics?” The young lady was looking forward to it very much. It felt wonderful to see her name appear among the songwriters for the first time.

"is not it?"

Hearing her ask this, Chi Jingyuan smiled and said, "The lyrics are signed only by you."

"Ah? What about you?" Bae Joo-hyun paused and asked in surprise.

Although she put a lot of effort into writing the lyrics, Chi Jingyuan's role in it is unquestionable. In her opinion, this man is the dominant one, and she is just a rookie who is being led around... So she originally thought that it would be enough for her to just have a name.

In the end, she was the only one signed?

"The lyrics are about love. If our names were the only two writers, it would not be appropriate. Fans would definitely be uncomfortable and there would be unwarranted rumors."

Chi Jingyuan walked to the side and got two glasses of water, speaking in a natural tone.

He had thought about this before. The lyrics of this song are entirely about love, expressing 'I love you till death'... I don't know what made Bae Joo-hyun write these lyrics.

But there is no doubt that if these lyrics were signed by the two of them, as soon as they were released and discovered by fans, it would immediately cause a lot of malicious associations. In addition, they had already had a lot of scandals before, which would immediately cause an uproar. It is estimated that by then, the benefit of Bae Joo-hyun's "first time writing lyrics, and the quality is excellent" will not be as great as the negative impact.

So after thinking about it, Ji Jingyuan decided not to sign his name. Originally, he only provided guidance and help with the lyrics of this song, and most of it was completed by Bae Joo-hyun herself.

Moreover, the lyricist of a song is of no importance to him. Although he will earn money if the lyricist is credited, he does not take it seriously at all.

"..."

Seeing that Pei Zhuxuan didn't say anything but had an expression that felt inappropriate, Chi Jingyuan waved his hand casually, glanced at her and said, "Do you think I'm missing a signature? Originally, the purpose of writing lyrics this time is to let you show your ability and establish your personality... Do you know what establishing a personality means?"

Many idols like to establish a 'talented' persona with the help of their companies. They would buy lyrics from lyricists, sign their own names after negotiation, and establish a 'lyricist' persona to improve their level and attract fans.

It's sometimes useful to say it or not.

Ji Jingyuan shrugged at Pei Zhuxuan: "If my name is also there, how can your fans praise you? It won't work~"

"That……"

The young lady knew that Chi Jingyuan was taking care of her. She was filled with emotion and asked in a low voice after a few seconds: "If one of us composes the music and the other writes the lyrics, won't people see us too..."

"Ani, the arrangement of this song may not fit the style of your Red Velvet yet. If it is selected, there will definitely be other musicians to arrange it. And I originally planned to let Kenzie Nuna try it too. When it is released, my name will not be the only one to arrange it, and no one will think too much about it."

"okay."

Chi Jingyuan drank some water indifferently, looked at Pei Zhuxuan who was still struggling, and said lazily: "Instead of being embarrassed here, you should think about how to thank me."

Seeing that Chi Jingyuan was serious, Pei Zhuxuan hesitated for a moment and simply let go. Her brows relaxed, and her sisterly spirit returned to her. She pouted at Chi Jingyuan: "Humph, if you don't want to, who will force you~"

Anyway, I have never thought about distinguishing anything, and it won’t happen again this time.

Occasionally, she can let go of the entanglement in her heart, transform from a little sister into a little woman, and calmly accept his help and care. This is the biggest psychological change in Bae Joo-hyun after this breakup.

But speaking of thank you...

She glanced at me and turned her head coquettishly: "Thank you? I'll save it."

"You didn't even thank me when I helped you get the title last time, and you're still saving it this time?"

Chi Jingyuan looked at her with some dissatisfaction: "Don't want that country girl vibe in you..."

As the little sister narrowed her eyes in a slightly aggressive manner, he still didn't say the word "shameless".

But it was just a joke, a habitual little teasing between ex-boyfriends and ex-girlfriends, so Chi Jingyuan certainly didn't take it seriously.

After finishing the business, the atmosphere immediately relaxed. Chi Jingyuan and Pei Zhuxuan sat on the sofa, holding a cup and chatting casually. After a few words, Chi Jingyuan thought of today and took the initiative to ask: "Where are we going to eat today? What time is it?"

"It's a restaurant in Myeongdong. I'll send you the address when the time comes."

Pei Zhuxuan sipped her water comfortably: "The time has not been decided yet, it depends on you, you are going to practice singing with her later... wait until you are done."

"You haven't decided on a time yet?"

Chi Jingyuan felt a little absurd and looked at her: "Why do you have to look at me? You guys set a time and go first. If I don't have time to finish my work, I can go there. Whose birthday is it? ... How many people did you invite?"

"I was hoping it wasn't my birthday."

The young lady shook her head, with some confusion that is unique to older women, and then glanced at Chi Jingyuan and shook her head gently: "I didn't call anyone else, just you and Shengwan."

"Forehead……"

Chi Jingyuan understood immediately after hearing it.

How could they invite him and Son Seung Wan to a birthday party? ... Bae Joo-gi said that the birthday party was mainly to ease the relationship between him and Son Seung Wan.

"You really are a worrier...Okay."

Looking at Bae Joo-hyun who was pretending not to hear, Chi Jingyuan shook his head and sighed, and also agreed.

Look at her stinky appearance. She is short but thinks a lot, and always worries about things that have nothing to do with her, like an old woman... The more Chi Jingyuan looked at her, the more he felt that he was right. This sister has the deep-rooted smell of an aunt from the countryside in Daegu.

"..."

After sitting for a while, Pei Zhuxuan looked at the time, her expression changed slightly, and then she put down the cup and stood up: "How did time go by so fast... Then I'll leave first, in case your girlfriend comes and sees me and I'm unhappy."

She patted her white casual pants which had become a little wrinkled due to her sitting posture, tilted her head and raised her chin to Chi Jingyuan as a goodbye, then twisted her little butt and walked towards the door.

"...You know she's unhappy, but you still come to me?"

Chi Jingyuan was choked by her and stood up as well: "Do you want me to pick you up when the time comes?"

"So I'm making room for you now."

Bae Joo Hyun stood in front of the door and waved to Chi Jingyuan: "No need, Seungwan and I are going to Myeongdong later, you just do your thing, call me when you're done, then I'll..."

As she spoke, she opened the door casually.

"..."

But the next second, Bae Joo-hyun's voice suddenly stopped, and the faint smile on her face and the action of opening the door froze at the same time.

Opposite her, less than half a meter away, was Ming Jingnan, who was also making the same gesture to open the door with a frozen bright smile on his face.

The two looked at each other through the door.
