Chapter 1387 You can’t

!

What do you do when you're struck by someone's handsomeness?
Lim Nayeon looked at Ji Kyung-won, who was so close to her, and felt her heart pounding.

Although his expression was casual and his tone questioning, the confidence he exuded created a powerful and compelling aura.

And then there's that face...

She blinked, her eyelashes trembling slightly, her lips slightly moist, and her bright eyes reflected the other person's face. For a moment, Lim Nayeon was at a loss for words.

"That……"

Her face felt a little hot, and she managed to force herself to appear natural, flashing a standard smile that showed off her front teeth: "Haha, well, that's good then."

"What exactly happened? Is everything really alright?"

Although Ji Kyung-won's attitude had already been quite clear, Bae Joo-hyun and Kang Seul-gi couldn't help but press for more information.

Bae Joo-hyun, in particular, got up from her original seat, wiggled her little bottom, and sat down next to Ji Kyung-won, looking at him very closely.

It's unclear whether he was concerned about Kim Tae-yeon and wanted to know more details, or simply wanted to get closer and talk to her.

"I can only say that the impact has been minimized, but it still depends on the specific situation after Taeyeon and the other injured people go to the hospital for examination... However, the ambulance arrived when I hung up the phone, so it should be okay."

A rich, sweet, milky scent wafted around him, tickling his nose. Chi Jingyuan's gaze swept over Bae Joo-hyun's face, and without hiding anything, he briefly explained the current situation.

Yu Dingyan listened attentively from the side, occasionally asking a few questions. She really felt that the whole process of Chi Jingyuan handling this emergency was like a scene from a TV drama, something she would never normally see. It was full of talking points, and even sitting next to him, she felt as if she was participating in it, and her whole body was excited.

However, after chatting for a while, she suddenly remembered that it seemed like it was almost time. She took out her phone and saw that it was already the meeting time that her agent had set.

Although she was a little reluctant, she gently nudged Lim Nayeon with her elbow, signaling her older sister to take her leave.

only……

"..."

Yu Dingyan poked at it for a long time, but found that the rabbit-toothed boss didn't react at all. The flesh on her waist was dented from her poking, and the woman was still chatting with Chi Jingyuan and the others with her big front teeth showing.

"cough~"

Since his older sister couldn't be relied on, Yoo Jeongyeon had to speak for herself. He cleared his throat and interrupted their conversation: "Well... oppa, Joo-hyun unnie and Seulgi unnie, Nayeon unnie and I will head back first. Our manager is probably already looking for us."

After she finished speaking, Yoo Jeongyeon saw Lim Nayeon turn around and glance at her, pouting slightly, her eyes containing a hint of blame and resentment!
It's as if it's saying, 'Why are you in such a hurry?'
"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Chi Jingyuan also took out his phone to check it, raising an eyebrow: "It's so late? I'm also getting ready to go back to the dressing room. I guess I'll need to touch up my makeup, change clothes, and walk the red carpet soon."

After greeting Bae Joo-hyun and Kang Seul-gi, Ji Kyung-won stood up and followed Lim Na-yeon and Yoo Jeong-yeon out of the lounge. Bae Joo-hyun and Kang Seul-gi also followed him out.

"Bye-bye, Oppa."

Bye-bye, see you in a bit.

Ji Kyung-won and Lim Na-yeon said goodbye.

Kang Seulgi, who was behind her, originally wanted to say something to Ji Kyung-won, but... she turned her head and suddenly caught sight of the leader unnie Bae Joo-hyun's slightly watery eyes and the way she was staring at Ji Kyung-won.

She blinked, as if sensing something, and took a few steps back, quietly returning to the lounge... closing the door behind her.

When Chi Jingyuan turned around, he only saw the young lady.

Bae Joo-hyun looked stunning today, her long black hair adorned with chestnut highlights, and two dazzling 10cm tassel earrings perfectly complementing her striking face.

When Chi Jingyuan turned around, he saw Bae Joo-hyun looking at him, clearly wanting to say something. He gestured with his eyes.

"Should I go see Taeyeon unnie later?" Bae Joo-hyun asked tentatively, looking at Ji Kyung-won with her big, dark eyes sparkling.

"She's going to the hospital now, and then she has to go to the police station to give a statement. Do you want to go to the hospital to see her, or do you want to go to the police station to see her?"

Upon hearing this, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but laugh. He wondered why the young lady seemed a bit too girly, and asked her in a slightly annoyed tone.

"That……"

"Just give her a call during the intermission or when the MMA is over."

I was quite nervous when I found out about the car accident, but now that no one was injured, I'm not so worried anymore.

Bae Joo-hyun looked up at him with a hint of reproach, but her eyes were full of trust and reliance. She said crisply, "I'll listen to you."

After she finished speaking, her eyes changed slightly, as if what she had just said was merely an appetizer, a prelude to what was to come.

"Your clothes feel really nice to the touch."

She stuck out her index finger and poked Chi Jingyuan's body repeatedly. After inexplicably praising the fabric of his coat, she suddenly looked up and met his eyes: "Where are you going after tonight?"

"..."

Chi Jingyuan looked into the girl's eyes and instantly understood what she meant. He raised an eyebrow to indicate that he had received the signal and was on the same wavelength, but still asked with concern, "Don't you need to go back to your dorm tonight?"

Bae Joo-hyun chuckled and winked, her fingers lightly brushing against the ends of her hair, while her shimmering silver tassel earring swayed gently below.

"It's okay to be a little impulsive once in a while, right?"

…………

"I called you to leave just now and you didn't react at all~"

"We were just chatting."

"Then why did you turn around and glare at me?"

"You've got it wrong, MUA~"

After leaving Red Velvet's dressing room, Nayeon and her companion did not go straight back to the dressing room. They planned to go to the restroom first because they were going to walk the red carpet later.

Before they had gone two steps, Yoo Jeongyeon launched into a tirade against Lim Nayeon, but this level of accusation did nothing to hurt her. After a few words and a kiss, she managed to smooth things over.

Yoo Jeongyeon was already used to Lim Nayeon's behavior, rolled her eyes helplessly, and said no more.

After they finished speaking, Lim Nayeon and Yoo Jeongyeon seemed to be thinking about something, and the atmosphere around them suddenly became quiet.

"...Unnie, didn't you think Kyungwon oppa was super handsome just now?"

A few seconds later, Yu Dingyan suddenly asked out of the blue.

"what?"

Lim Nayeon, who had been lost in thought, was startled by the voice: "What did you say?"

"Hey unnie, didn't you think Kyungwon oppa was super handsome just now?" Yoo Jeongyeon repeated, looking at the dazed Lim Nayeon, and couldn't help but laugh: "What are you spacing out for? Are you thinking about Kyungwon oppa?"

"..."

Nayeon was momentarily embarrassed after her thoughts were instantly exposed, but she didn't hold back much when faced with Jeongyeon's words. She wrinkled her nose and flashed her front teeth at Jeongyeon: "No way~"

"What's wrong with that?"

Yoo Jeongyeon thought Lim Nayeon looked so cute that she couldn't help but reach out and pull her head up, laughing, "It's normal, I can't help but think about it too."

Although she had known and was quite familiar with Chi Jingyuan for a long time, their interactions had always been normal. Yu Dingyan had never been exposed to this kind of thing before, and this was the first time she had seen this side of Chi Jingyuan.

The attitude of "no matter what trouble you get into, I will definitely help you fix it" is both awe-inspiring and enviable.

What's more striking is his handling of the traffic accident. It's a completely different kind of charm compared to the handsome appearance of male celebrities we usually encounter, which represents connections and power. Compared to the basics of looks, it elevates the masculine appeal to a higher level, giving a deeper and more profound impression, with a captivating and unforgettable impact.

In addition, Chi Jingyuan is already handsome, and his appearance is already at its peak. When he performs the role, the combination is really hard to resist.

"That scene was something I've only ever seen in dramas, ahni, even on TV it wasn't that smooth, Oppa is so incredibly handsome."

Thinking back to the previous scene, Yoo Jeongyeon couldn't help but sigh, "I was almost moved myself. Suddenly I understand Irene unnie, and I understand Mina too..."

They all knew that Bae Joo-hyun and Ji Kyung-won had dated and broken up before, but what they had just witnessed recently was not the case. In particular, Bae Joo-hyun's naturalness and closeness were not what one would expect from a relationship after a breakup.
She initially found it strange, but now that she thinks about it, she instantly understands.

"..."

What Yoo Jeongyeon said completely hit the nail on the head for Lim Nayeon. She had initially been quite empathetic and excited when Yoo Jeongyeon praised Ji Kyungwon, nodding enthusiastically. However, as she heard the later part, she became a little unhappy and pretended to smack her lips, saying, "It's alright~"

"Hey, tell me."

After saying that, Lim Nayeon spoke again before she could react, but after starting, she seemed a little embarrassed. After hesitating for a while, she couldn't help but ask, "If we were like Kim Tae-yeon unnie and got into a car accident or something serious... if we called him, would he act like he did just now?"

"Well...we?"

This question clearly piqued Yu Dingyan's interest, and she countered with her own question.

"Or... let's not talk about us for now."

Perhaps feeling that the importance of the two of them was worth considering, Lim Nayeon immediately changed her tune: "What do you think if it were Tzuyu?"

"Then you still need to ask?"

Upon hearing this name, Yoo Jeongyeon immediately rolled her eyes and said irritably, "Didn't you see how many times Kyungwon oppa has helped Tzuyu? You saw it with your own eyes, Woo Jiho. Recently, just because she was too tired, he actually took leave to take her out for some fun... If something really happens, how could he not care?"

"I knew it!"

Upon hearing this, Lim Nayeon muttered something under her breath, it was hard to tell whether it was envy or dissatisfaction.

She paused for a second, then asked, "What about Mina?"

“Mina’s words…”

This question stumped Yoo Jeong-yeon. She stroked her chin thoughtfully and said, "Even though they broke up a long time ago, and Kyung-won oppa is deliberately keeping his distance from Mina, that's why it seems so unnatural. I can tell that Mina is a very special person to Kyung-won oppa."

"I think that with Kyungwon oppa's personality... he will definitely take care of it."

"They really stretch their reach far..."

After another quiet mutter, Lim Nayeon finally addressed the two of them: "And what about you?"

"I think I could do that too."

Yu Dingyan thought for a moment, then smiled and said with a hint of pride, "I've known Jingyuan oppa for a long time, I'm his good sister. Jingyuan oppa is really a very good-natured and loyal older brother."

"And... what about me!"

After going around in circles, she finally asked the most crucial person. Lim Nayeon stared intently at Yoo Jeongyeon, hoping to hear what she wanted to hear from her.

"You can not."

Without even thinking, Yu Dingyan said it directly.

"Huh? Hello?"

Rabbit Tooth got impatient and almost bit her face with one of his front teeth: "If you can do it, why can't I?"

"Unnie, you and I are different~"

Yu Dingyan chuckled:
“I remember you were cursing him yesterday and liking those anti-fan comments online.”

…………

While Kim Tae-yeon's traffic accident was still being dealt with and the news had not yet spread, Ji Kyung-won's MMA event was being held as scheduled without any disruption.

The rest of the red carpet event was uneventful. Even though Bae Joo-hyun and Mina were dressed beautifully, we'd seen Ji Kyung-won a bit too often.

What surprised and delighted him most was Chou Tzu-yu's outfit. This girl had changed her usual fresh and cute style, wearing a retro all-white jumpsuit. While being elegant and generous, she unexpectedly exuded a lot of femininity.

It's unclear whether Cody performed exceptionally well or whether she made the choice herself.

When Ji Kyung-won saw Tzuyu's outfit before she walked the red carpet, he was quite amazed and couldn't help but take a second look.

But his reaction seemed to have been noticed by the black woman. After walking the red carpet, she sent Chi Jingyuan a bunch of text messages, asking smugly if he looked good, and even vainly sent him a bunch of selfies.

Chi Jingyuan ignored her and simply clicked "save".

Her outfit was really eye-catching. Ji Jingyuan even saw many male idols staring at Zhou Ziyu and whispering among themselves.

Unfortunately, Chou Tzu-yu's beautiful and elegant outfit was changed shortly after the awards ceremony began. She was replaced with a green princess dress for the stage, and wore a fake fringe and hair clip, which made her look a bit silly and old-fashioned.

The dark-skinned woman didn't seem to like her outfit very much either, sitting somewhat sullenly in the artist section, which almost made Chi Jingyuan laugh.

After changing their stage makeup, the other Twice members all dressed up beautifully. Sana Minato and Mina Mina were the most eye-catching. The latter was very sweet, while Mina Mina changed into a red aristocratic princess dress. With her own temperament, she attracted attention just by sitting there.

Bae Joo-hyun, who lost on the red carpet, redeemed herself on the stage.

In the upbeat intro to "Peek-A-Boo," as the curtain slowly rises and opens, revealing her delicate and radiant face, and as the camera shines directly at her at close range, her drooping eyelids gently lift, and she looks coolly at the camera, creating a stunning and impactful opening close-up.

For a moment, it seemed as if everyone's vision froze. While many fans in the audience gasped in surprise, Chi Kyung-won also heard a male idol behind him reflexively shout "Oh!" and "Ippuda!"

The EXO members next to him were whispering things like, "Irene looks so beautiful today," but Ji Kyungwon didn't join in and remained reservedly silent.

We'll talk about it tonight.

Aside from that, none of the other stages left a deep impression on him... The only one that left some impression, but was also a bit awkward, was a small incident on a Twice stage.

When Twice performed their second song, "Likey," after the second chorus, it was Momo Hirai's solo dance in the center position.

Hirai Momo's dance moves were very standard and powerful. She was wearing a somewhat flowing princess dress. During one leg-lifting movement, it seemed that the hem of her skirt got caught, causing it to fly up and instantly revealing everything underneath.

Fortunately, the live broadcast was delayed by a few seconds, and the director switched to a wide shot before the shot appeared, so neither the live broadcast nor the large screen at the venue saw it.

Embarrassingly, Twice's performance was taking place on the secondary stage right next to the artists' seating area, and Ji Kyung-won was sitting on the far left of the first row of the artists' seating area. He was watching the performance intently and was practically the closest person to the stage besides Twice, so he saw the whole scene clearly.

They even shared a brief but genuine eye contact with Hirai Momo.
