Chapter 53: Su-yeon's Concern

  As an active girl group on the screen, these girls known as Asia's No. 1 girl group are well aware that they are also tools for their company to make money. Compared to the money they earn for the company, they only get a small share. However, in other people's eyes, they are still objects of envy.

  For them, when they're not popular, they hope others will accept and chase after them. But once they really become popular, they feel it's a kind of suffering. Every day there are appointments that can't be finished, every day running around in circles, like Zheng Xiujing who has only been in the industry for over a year, getting such good treatment, undoubtedly makes them somewhat envious.

  After all, the treatment they have today is the result of their hard work. But what about this group of junior sisters? With fewer people and fans, they enjoy the same treatment as them in the company. Moreover, when the company releases announcements, they often consider their image and thoughts more. This is obviously an unfair treatment, which makes the girls feel a little uncomfortable in their hearts.

  It can be heard that Li Shun-gui mentioned Song Qian, and in South Korea, it seems that there is a big shot taking care of her. The girls are also aware of this. In this money-dominated society, their dazzling achievements seem to be nothing in front of those truly powerful figures. What puzzles the girls is, what makes Song Qian so lucky?

  The girls who thought there must be some secret, turned their eyes to the girl who always had a lazy and sloppy attitude in the dormitory, and said: "Xiuyan, have you ever asked Xiaoshuijing what kind of background Song Qian has?"

  "Does she think that dead girl would tell me something like this? In front of her, my status is no match for the captain's. That girl has no conscience at all."

  I recall the previous gatherings at home, Zheng Xiuyan had also curiously inquired about this younger sister's group. Why over the past half year, she received increasingly better care from the company. But Zheng Xiujing forever stuck to one sentence 'secrecy, can't betray sisters', shutting her down completely, naturally making her grit her teeth in hatred.

  When Lin Yun'er heard this, she narrowed her eyes and said: "Who told you to always deduct Little Water Crystal's pocket money in the past? Every time that girl talked to me about it, she would complain about this matter. By the way, I did hear Little Water Crystal say before that she wants to introduce you to a Huaxia boy she knows, saying that you should make up for what you owed her in the past!

  "Do you think the Xia boy that Little Crystal mentioned is actually the big shot who's been taking care of them? But it doesn't make sense! How can this Xia person easily interfere with our country's entertainment circle? Unless, Xiuyan, you call Little Crystal now and ask her what she's doing in Xia?"

  Among the nine of them, the one who gets along best with Jung Soo-jung is actually Yoon-ah, judging from their innocent-looking faces. Plus, they are not much different in age, so sometimes Jung Soo-jung would share secrets with Yoon-ah that she wouldn't even tell her own sister. Because of this, Jung Soo-young often jokes that Jung Soo-jung is a sly fox!

  As for calling that girl to show off, Zheng Xiuyan felt more comfortable lying down and resting, weakly saying: "You're not without Little Crystal's phone number, you can call her if you want, I won't! Otherwise, that girl will definitely brag about how much fun she had in Huaxia on purpose to make me angry!"

  It's not surprising that Jung Soo-jung would do something like this, given her personality. However, this doesn't mean that Jung Soo-jung dislikes her sister. On the contrary, this is just how the two sisters are used to interacting with each other, and their feelings for each other remain very close.

  Lin Yuner saw that Zheng Xiuyan was not interested, and muttered: "If you want to fight, just fight. This girl ran to Hua Xia to have fun, and when she comes back, if she doesn't bring me a gift, I'll break off relations with her."

  As she spoke, Lin Yun'er quickly took out her phone and dialed Zheng Xiujing's number with ease. After the phone rang for a while before being answered, just as Lin Yun'er was about to speak, a gentle male voice suddenly came from the other end of the line: "Hello, Xiujing is in the backyard building a snowman, she asked me to ask you to wait for a moment."

  Building a snowman with a boy?

  Lin Yuner, who had just woken up from her nap, hadn't spoken yet. Zheng Xiuyan, who was resting with her eyes closed earlier, suddenly sprang up like a mother cat protecting its cub, grabbed the phone and asked in an icy tone: "Who are you? How dare you answer Xiu Jing's call?"

  Han Ankang, who was reading a book in the courtyard, had just finished treating the girls to lunch and wanted them to experience some childhood fun by building snowmen in the snowy courtyard. To prevent their phones from getting wet or missing calls while they were playing too enthusiastically, Song Qian and the others left their phones with Han Ankang in the pavilion where he was reading, asking him to keep an eye on them.

  If someone calls, please ask them to call the girls. As a result, when the girls were playing happily, they heard the mobile phone ringing beside them and saw that the incoming mobile phone was Zheng Xiujing's Han Ankang, so he shouted at Zheng Xiujing who was playing happily and told her that a girl named "Yuner" called to find her.

  Jung Hye-mi had just finished piling up the snowman and directly shouted at Han Ah-rang to answer the phone for her, also telling Yoon-ah to wait a minute. Han Ah-rang, who thought answering the phone wouldn't be a problem, didn't expect the other party to become somewhat vigilant and ask him who he was.

  "This tone seems to have a hint of malice, Han Ankang quickly replied: "You are Miss Yun'er, right? Xiujing and the others are building a snowman in the courtyard. As for my identity, let's just say I'm one of her friends! You wait for a moment, Xiujing has already arrived."

  After finishing, looking at Zheng Xiujing who was sweating profusely, Han Ankang directly handed over the phone. As a result, I heard Zheng Xiuyan on this side continuing to ask nervously: "Friend? How come Xiujing never told me that she has a male friend in Huaxia? What's your name? And how did you meet my sister Xiujing? And I'm not Ahn-er, I'm her older sister Zheng Xiuyan."

  Listening to the machine gun-like questioning sound coming from the phone, Zheng Xiujing looked at Han Ankang with a puzzled expression and hurriedly picked up the phone: "Sister, why are you using Yuner's phone to call me?"

  Hearing her sister's voice on the phone, Zheng Xiuyan was still very nervous and said: "Zheng Xiujing, you'd better tell me honestly, who is that boy just now? Weren't you going to record a show at Huaxia? How did you end up recording at a boy's home and even building a snowman there. If you don't give me a clear explanation, I'll call Mom and Dad right now and have them talk to you."

  I'm extremely worried that this careless younger sister is being bullied in a foreign country, Zheng Xiuyan's tone naturally became much stricter, and it could be heard through the phone, at this time Zheng Xiuyan was very angry.

  Jung Soo-jung, who occasionally rebels against her sister, knows that this is the most terrifying time for her older sister. Ahn Kang-hee, who heard the same words and was still puzzled, apologized. Jung Soo-jung took out her phone and walked out of the pavilion, saying in a low voice: "Sister, don't be so loud, okay? Your words just now were heard by others, and I'm still a guest at their house!"

  "How am I supposed to explain this to others?! And it's not just me living here, Song Mom and Shirley are also here, don't you believe me? Listen to them, they're having a great time right now! You need to change your temper, and I'm not a kid, how can I be easily deceived?! Don't worry, Korean OPPA is good to us!"

  Listening to Zheng Xiujing's rebuttal, she also said that the five girls were all living in a boy's house. Zheng Xiuyan slightly relaxed her tone and continued to ask: "Don't change the subject, you haven't told me yet, why did you go to Huaxia to record a show, but ended up going to a boy's house instead? What's going on here? And what does this boy surnamed Han do?"

  Regarding the inquiry about Jung Soo-yeon, Jung Soo-jung clearly knew that some things couldn't be said casually and quickly replied: "This is a company arrangement. We came here to deliver gifts on someone's behalf. Playing here for a few days was also approved by the president and director. As for HAN OPPA's identity, I won't reveal it without his permission."

  "Don't ask anymore, just know that Korean oppa is very nice, I even want to introduce him to you as your boyfriend next time! Your fierce expression just now makes me wonder how I can introduce you to him in the future?"

  The girls who had been listening to the phone call all along, when they heard this, Zheng Xiujing couldn't help but tease Zheng Xiuyan a bit. Suddenly, they burst out laughing. Before Zheng Xiuyan could continue asking questions, Lin Yuner, who had snatched the phone away, said in a very affectionate tone: "Xiujing, I'm your sister Yuner! With such a great guy, why are you only thinking of your older sister?"

  "How can you even think of your sister-in-law? I'm the face of Girls' Generation, shouldn't I be more charming than that? You heartless little thing, in the past you always said I was the best to you. How could you forget me whenever something good comes up?"

  Upon hearing Yoon-ah's voice, Jung Soo-jung looked at Han Ah-rang who was sitting back in the recliner, immersed in his medical books and said with a hint of emotion: "Yoon-ah unnie, Han OPPA is really too good, you're making it hard for me to choose! Why don't I get your poster and ask him which one he likes best among the nine of you?"

  Next time he goes to South Korea, I'll introduce him to you. You know, HAN OPPA has many friends in the South Korean entertainment circle. This time we came here, Hyori sister and Jong Kook OPPA, even Seok Jin OPPA asked us to bring New Year's gifts for them! If you can get a patron like this, you won't have to struggle for the rest of your life.

  "If you succeed, don't forget that I'm the one who made it happen today. You wait here, I'll go get your posters and let Oppa choose a good one. Wait for me!"

  After saying these words, Zheng Xiujing hung up the phone without waiting for Lin Yuner and others to respond. It seems that she has thought of another fun idea and wants to play a good game with these company sisters!
