Chapter 82: Romance and the storyline before the return...
His original train of thought was interrupted, and even though he knew Sang-hee was joking, Kwon Ji-yong couldn't help but be captivated by the way Sang-hee looked at him.
Kwon Ji-yong had long noticed that Han Sang-hee had very beautiful eyes.
As long as Sang-hee could always look at him like that, it seemed he could do anything.
When facing Han Sang-hee, Kwon Ji-yong's bottom line is always one of retreat after another.
However, it is clear that Han Shangxi is unaware of this.
She didn't spend much time with Kwon Ji-yong after her debut. Aside from the early period when she only considered him a senior and colleague and chatted with him more, they practically had no interaction later on.
However, things don't seem to be explained that way.
Compared to other people, she and her current boyfriend probably know each other quite well, right?
Han Shangxi thought to himself with some uncertainty.
When she met Kwon Ji-yong's gaze, her uncertainty turned into hesitation.
Why does this person look at me with a sense that they'd do anything I say, even a self-sacrificing act?
Did she learn to bewitch people without her knowledge?
Han Shangxi was puzzled and confused.
She remembered that this person had been angry with her before.
Ahem, I only thought of this to show that the person in front of me has a healthy view of relationships...
Han Shangxi tried hard to convince himself.
At least, she didn't have a penchant for playing weird games.
Startled by that gentle yet somewhat eerie gaze, Han Sang-hee tried to quietly avert her eyes and escape from Kwon Ji-yong's embrace.
The result was clearly a failure.
The other person's hand pressed on her shoulder, stopping her movement. Han Shangxi could even sense which knuckles were on her shoulder and where they were from the touch.
Han Shangxi's brain was racing, trying to figure out which part had gone wrong.
"Could you please turn on the light, senior?"
Han Shangxi looked up at the other person again, her eyes filled with sincerity, showing no sign that she was trying to stall for time.
Well, before Han Shangxi even realized it, her drowsiness had completely dissipated.
Upon hearing this, Kwon Ji-yong's eyes dimmed for a moment, then returned to a nonchalant smile.
"So he's still just a senior after all?"
The force that had been restraining Shangxi's movements was released at this moment.
Kwon Ji-yong didn't say anything more, but walked straight to the location of the light switch.
Han Shangxi felt that something was wrong with all of this.
Her view has always been that if she has made a choice, it means that she cares about it enough.
She never needs her partner to sacrifice themselves for her. Of course, she wouldn't choose to sacrifice herself for someone she likes.
The person in front of me has a dangerous and wrong idea.
At that moment, Han Shangxi suddenly realized what was wrong.
"That's just a title. Whether it's senior or oppa."
Furthermore, doesn't the senior think he's been neglecting himself too much?
Han Shangxi tried to pull everything back to what she considered normal, even if the transitions seemed abrupt.
The lights were then turned on, and the room became bright.
Kwon Ji-yong didn't respond to Han Sang-hee's words, but instead changed the subject, his tone inexplicably indifferent.
"Doesn't our Sang-hee like me this way?"
"...I just feel that this is not quite right."
Even in a romantic relationship, both parties should maintain their individuality.
It's hard to deny that she was slightly moved when Kwon Ji-yong said those words.
But Han Shangxi still believes that developing a healthy view of love is very important for everyone.
Otherwise, it would be very tiring.
She looked at Kwon Ji-yong with a hint of probing in her eyes.
Kwon Ji-yong didn't want to continue the conversation, as he hadn't expected to be talking about these topics today. He took Sang-hee's hand with one hand and pulled her suitcase with the other, leading her towards the guest room.
Kwon Ji-yong's house is rarely visited by friends.
Even when people come here, very few stay overnight. The last time someone stayed overnight here was with his teammates.
However, he figured Shang Xi probably wouldn't want to know these things.
After confirming from his memory that everything in the guest room had been replaced, Kwon Ji-yong stood at the door of the guest room, his words tinged with a self-deprecating smile.
"If I did that, would Shangxi get hurt? Would Shangxi think the same way?"
"My seniors always ask for my opinion, but their perspective is more important, isn't it?"
Han Sang-hee stared at Kwon Ji-yong for a few seconds and realized that the man's views on love were really unhealthy.
"So... does Shangxi really like me?"
If anyone else had said that, Han Shangxi would have felt offended.
But when she heard those words from Kwon Ji-yong, she felt inexplicably wronged.
Han Sang-hee decided to suspend her plan to correct this person's views on love.
"I'm a little tired."
Not wanting to answer the question at all, Han Shangxi placed her hand on the doorknob of the guest room.
The moment he pushed her in, Kwon Ji-yong grasped her hand.
Is this question really that difficult for Shangxi to answer?
Clearly, things won't just pass so easily.
Han Sang-hee did not try to push open the guest room door again, nor did she turn to look at Kwon Ji-yong beside her.
"Look, this is the real me."
Kwon Ji-yong's smile held a hint of helplessness; it was unclear whether he was laughing at himself or at the current situation.
Han Shangxi turned his head to look at the person beside him, silently adjusting his breathing.
Don't get angry at idiots.
I really like you.
Why question this?
Han Sang-hee didn't understand why Kwon Ji-yong would question this.
Even if it's just for arguing, it's absolutely unacceptable.
Perhaps because she had been staring at Kwon Ji-yong for so long, she actually felt tears welling up in her eyes.
Trying to control his emotions, Han Shangxi blinked more frequently.
She rarely cries.
And I shouldn't cry because of this.
When an unexpected sincerity suddenly appeared, Kwon Ji-yong was completely out of it at first.
But clearly, that wasn't the most important thing right now. Kwon Ji-yong gently pulled Han Sang-hee into his arms and sincerely apologized to the person in front of him.
“Mianne”.
"Nothing else to say?"
Han Shangxi politely declined the apology and used the "disappearing polite language" technique.
She was really angry this time.
"Aren't you even going to offer me a perfunctory response?"
Looking up at the other person, Han Shangxi entered his吐槽 (tu cao, meaning to roast or criticize) mode.
"It's better not to say anything."
Kwon Ji-yong, who had been silenced, tried to soften the other party's heart with his eyes.
He's very good at playing the victim in front of this person.
Han Shangxi could readily admit that she felt a pang of sympathy every time she saw the man in front of her looking dejected, but...
Han Sang-hee decided it was necessary to punish the other party.
"A kiss won't solve the problem; it's just interest."
He bit down on the other person's lips until he tasted blood before letting go.
This is roughly part of the punishment that Han Shangxi had just thought of.
"I was genuinely worried before that Shangxi's idea was just a passing fancy..."
Sensing that Sang-hee's attitude had softened, Kwon Ji-yong tried to defend himself.
Being misunderstood is never a good thing. Especially being misunderstood by Shangxi.
"hehe."
Han Shangxi chuckled coldly twice.
Is that really the case?
After hearing what the other person said, some things seemed to become understandable, but the thought of his feelings being questioned made Han Shangxi feel sad (crossed out), very sad.
With his blinking frequency increasing again, Han Shangxi buried himself entirely in the other person's arms.
This person, who briefly gained the right to speak, has learned to coax others.
Han Shangxi felt a little embarrassed listening to the other person's gentle words, but she did not choose to look up. Instead, she silently rebuked the other person.
"Don't try to seduce me on purpose."
"Inside."
Well, the other party still seemed patient. Han Shangxi's initial thoughts wavered.
"Damn, this is completely insane."
After muttering a self-criticism to himself, Han Shangxi looked up at Kwon Ji-yong and succinctly said what she wanted to say.
“Mianne, I didn’t mean to make you feel insecure.”
"Next time, you could try a different approach when you ask."
"Ah, there's no next time..."
"Anyway, let's just let this go. I'm a little tired today."
Han Sang-hee, who had entered her rambling mode, had no idea how much Kwon Ji-yong's heart was fluttering at that moment.
Han Sang-hee managed to break free from Kwon Ji-yong's embrace this time, but was grabbed by the hand in the next second.
"Only kisses are allowed."
As he sensed the other person's presence drawing closer, Han Shangxi felt it necessary to remind them of something.
Han Shangxi felt that he was a really good-tempered person.
While she does bear some responsibility in this matter, is this senior completely without fault?
No, this person is more wrong.
Today, allowing only kisses is considered a very minor punishment.
Even with this thought in mind, the stimulation from his ear bone still made Han Shangxi unable to resist dodging.
Just as she was about to bite her lower lip, Kwon Ji-yong gently stopped her with his index finger.
As for why the two ended up waking up in the same bed, that's another story.
However, it's perfectly normal for one's bottom line to be lowered in a relationship.
At least it did not cross the line that was drawn from the beginning.
Before today, Kwon Ji-yong would worry about Sang-hee's feelings and whether she would regret it later.
Actually, there are more than just these.
However, Han Sang-hee is really good at solving problems.
Since it was a vacation, Han Shangxi did not work for the past three days except for handling necessary matters.
Work is tedious; holidays are what people long for.
During holidays, people tend to care about fewer people and fewer things.
Just as Han Sang-hee had promised before her vacation, her vacation time was entirely taken up by Kwon Ji-ryong.
Although there were some initial setbacks, the time that followed was a rare moment of relaxation for Han Sang-hee.
However, she would be happier if there were fewer kisses.
However, holidays are a rare occurrence.
Most people work hard every day.
This certainly includes people who make a living as idols.
The three members of ETE, who are currently in the countdown to their return, are even more so.
Practicing in the studio, shooting music videos, recording behind-the-scenes footage—these are the most basic tasks for a comeback.
Since you've chosen to continue down this path, then please keep up the good work.
During the practice of the new song, Han Sang-hee not only had high requirements for the two members, but also had even higher requirements for her own practice results.
In today's idol industry, the stage remains fundamental; only by doing one's best can one be worthy of the love and expectations of others.
News, scandals, and controversies are not more important than the stage, as long as they don't cross the line.
In short, Han Sang-hee has his own obsession with stage presentation.
The process of preparing for a comeback always goes by very quickly.
The day before their return, ETE held their first group live stream since 2014 as scheduled.
—ETE waiting with fans for the music release
As can be seen from the theme, this live stream was part of an effort to appeal to fans.
Objectively speaking, live streaming for fans is easier than a regular schedule.
The audience consists of fans who naturally have a favorable impression of the streamer, and their perception of the streamer's behavior is naturally influenced by this.
Being able to do live streaming is just pandering to fans.
Whether someone speaks or not, whether they are active or not, there are always ways to interpret it.
In other words, those who are favored are always fearless.
"Hello everyone, we are ETE!"
It has been almost a year since the group's last comeback. No matter what turmoil ETE has gone through, Emily will always have natural expectations for ETE.
When the three members of ETE reunited on camera, they seemed rather calm compared to the excitement in the live chat.
After all, in the eyes of fans, this is their first time together in a long time. For them, they have already spent enough time together during the preparation for their comeback.
The unintentional chemistry displayed during interactions with the live chat naturally became evidence of ETE's team spirit and another point of discussion regarding the triangular relationship within the team.
Yes, even without deliberately promoting any pairings, pairings still exist within the ETE team.
For example, the live broadcast took place in Han Sang-hee's recording studio.
This point can be seen as evidence of the captain's love for the group, or it can be another reason to ship them.
Of course, these subsequent developments have nothing to do with the three ETE members who were live-streaming at the time.
Since this is a live stream prepared for ETE's comeback, most of the content will be related to ETE's upcoming return.
Why choose this regression time?
"In the general public's mind, the number four is often taboo because of its homonym. However, our ETE consists of three people, which corresponds to the number three."
"In the original numerical order, three is followed by four, but this time four is followed by three."
Like how "die" reversed becomes "eid." Is it a kind of concept of reversal?
"Therefore, ETE chose April 3rd for its comeback."
"If I remember correctly, tomorrow is also Thursday."
When Han Sang-hee mentioned setting the return time as the time for the number game he designed, his eyes lit up with a carefree and unrestrained smile, like a child hoping for praise.
At this moment, praise for Sanghee also appeared in the live chat.
—Our Sanghee is such a smart kid.
—Wow, what an ingenious idea!
—As expected of Sanghee!
Making fans feel needed is also one of the responsibilities of an idol.
While the ETE livestream was in progress, discussions were also taking place outside.
[EE Returns Live Discussion Forum]
LZ: All three sisters are doing well. Their unwavering belief after the incident truly lived up to its reputation. (Sobbing, I'm a true fan, please don't hit me kkk)
1L: Sanghee completely unleashed her inner sister vibe this time; without being told, no one would guess that Sanghee is the maknae (youngest member).
2L: Minjin unnie's cool face is so cute (actress fans are overjoyed.jpg)
3L: Jihye is still as pretty and cute as ever, so adorable!
5L: It's okay, OP. To be honest, the reason I can still be a fan of ETE is because I'm attracted to good-looking people.
6L: Everyone's like that. If you're just looking at talent, you might as well support the singer.
9L:EE, the three are fully qualified as IDOLs.
21L: The reason why the return date has been set is really interesting.
After hearing the explanation, I just felt that Sanghee was really good at manipulating numbers.
25L: Whether it's avoiding taboos or breaking down the old to build anew, this comeback, with even the return date meticulously planned, clearly shows careful preparation. No one loves EE more than EE.
28L: Nobody in your area dares to say it, but the three sisters actually have a pretty good relationship. Especially after they all got into trouble, lol.
29L: Is the person upstairs referring to the incident where they questioned whether Shang Jie was a member of the royal family, only to find out that the other two were actually royalty? [Chin resting on hand]
33L: Didn't you date all three of them? Didn't your sister date anyone?
37L: My sister isn't like your two darlings in 33L, who proactively show off their hand-holding photos.
46L: Ahem, objectively speaking, there is indeed no concrete evidence of a relationship on Sister Shang's alternate account.
52L: When Shang Jie was mocked for being a "royal family" (a term used to describe someone favored by their family), we Meituan fans weren't as silent as we are now. Didn't we even fuel the flames back then?
"Although I'm a fan of EE, I have to admit that Sanghee has indeed received a lot of resources, so it's not unfair to call them 'royal family'."
“Sanghee is an adult. Since she chose to become a director, she should have known that there would be all sorts of opinions. Fans can't always defend her.”
When two other members of the royal family took over, they started defending it. Who wouldn't find this kind of behavior laughable?
57L: You guys have also been criticizing Jihye and Minjin quite a bit.
63L: So what does this have to do with the double standards of Meituan fans?
76L: Sanghee is a very qualified captain. Looking forward to Captain Han. I don't know about the others.
87L: Seeing EE fans and Shang Jie fans still arguing less than two hours before the comeback, I suddenly felt a strange sense of relief.
95L: What no one dares to say is actually "No one loves XX more than XX." This kind of rhetoric is really weird. Every time I see it, I get a strange feeling.
103L: This kind of "feeling something" rhetoric usually comes from either self-pity or forced silence. It's normal to feel disgusted by it, lol.
108L: All I can say is that after watching too much of it, it feels pale and powerless.
Is it because they really didn't go to work, or are their colleagues just too friendly, that they have the idea that "no one loves XX more than XX"?
In reality, the fans who say this love XX even more than the XX they are talking about.
118L: Aren't "youthful friendship" and "dreamlike fulfillment" what K-pop idol groups strive to present? We can't blame the fans for saying such things.
127L: Oh dear, let's get back to the main topic. Everyone's here because of EE's return to live streaming.
If you want to argue about whether your wording is correct, go and start a separate thread outside to argue about it.
142L: EE's concept this time doesn't sound very new. Has Sister Shang run out of ideas?
151L: I already said no dating during the rising phase. (Pre-emptive warning: this refers to all idols who date during their rising phase.)
167L: 151L Why are you saying this about Minjin and Jiihye? Even if these two are confirmed to be diving royalty, and there are photos of them holding hands all over the place, you can't talk about them like this.
168L: Oh my god, if the person upstairs isn't just spreading rumors, then they really seem like a fan of EE.
176L: I think EE's comeback this time is really brilliant. Only EE could take the concept of reversal to the extreme.
189L: These two ladies are really not as good at charming fans as Sister Shang. Sister Shang briefly left the scene, and then the atmosphere quieted down.
190L: Sister Shang, are you feeling unwell? [Chin resting on hand] She seemed a bit off before she left.
193L: 189L You can't really blame the two of them. There were a lot of attacks on them in the comments. Most of Minjin and Jihye's individual fans are fans of the actors and rarely pay attention to group activities.
197L: Aren't group fans fans? Now our group fangirls are protecting their idols again. What happened to the way they were when they criticized Sanghee for treating group fans and solo fans differently? Where did they go? I really don't want to say anything else TT
202L: There's been quite a bit of attacking Shang Jie too. Using this as an example, people might think these two are so pitiful.
207L: By now, Shang Jie is really doing quite well. With EE's comeback, Shang Jie is going to start her sideline role again. Leader + main producer + main vocalist + overwhelmingly popular TOP, with so many titles, who would believe that this person who was the center during her time in the group has so few?
212L: You can't just say these things when Sanghee isn't in the center position. Wasn't Sanghee always in the center position during EE's early debut?
219L: Even during that period, Sanghee was only in the center position on stage. Apart from that, Sanghee rarely appeared in the center position for group activities.
223L: Actually, the center position only appears when Sanghee needs to be criticized.
233L: Nobody wants to see you guys arguing about the part or the center position. Group fans value EE as a whole more.
246L: Oh my god, what was that fangirl saying in the comments section of Sanghee's Instagram post last time, "ETE is three"?
If you value the group as a whole, then don't try to interfere with individual members' information. Sanghee has done a great job for the group.
251L: To be honest, arguing here really damages the public's impression of Sanghee. A friendly reminder: fans' actions also affect people's perception of Sanghee.
258L: Are there any real casual players in your area? Or rather, would real casual players even come to your area? A while ago, they directly banned Shang Jie's positive posts but didn't ban negative ones, so how many real casual players are there in a place like this?
263L: What else is the Anonymous Entertainment section for if not to argue? I want to see [sprinkling flowers][heart emoji] There are plenty of other things out there.
268L: As expected of Sister Shang in your district control group.
275L: Since you're talking about Sister Shang's fan group, why don't you hurry up and thank Sister Shang's fans?
276L: I agree with the comment above. I remember that the rule banning derogatory terms in your section was pushed by Shang Jie's fans. If derogatory terms weren't banned, the arguments in your section would be even more unsightly.
284L: Wait, does Sister Shang have any derogatory nicknames? Even the "Aunt Shang" nickname you bestowed upon her after her relationship was exposed isn't exactly a derogatory nickname, is it? EE—Auntie, all three are treated equally.
291L: I have no obligation to digest the nicknames you use to insult me. [shrug]
302L: If Shang Jie's spending power were as strong as her online bravado, that would be great. Hopefully, Shang Jie will still be virtually invisible at the first EE World Tour event.
311L: At this point, our group fan sister stopped saying that solo fans are not allowed to watch the group's concert.
Rest assured, Shang Jie, who has chosen to enjoy life and has set aside the moral constraints imposed by the group's fans, says that our light sticks and individual support are ready.
This time, our group fans are not allowed to apply double standards again. Don't do something outrageous like forbidding Shang Jie fans from holding up light boards while spoiling True and Wisdom Tree.
323L: As we all know, True and Wisdom Tree are the only fan names of the other two members, but Shang Jiesi can only be called Shang Jiesi.
Our group fans are so selectively sensitive; even when Sanghee expresses gratitude by mentioning "thank you Emily and fans," we immediately become defensive.
325L: Minjin and Jihye's solo fans are actors, not idols, so they need to be named.
331L: Am I a die-hard fan of Shang Jie or a solo fan of Shang Jie?
332L: Never mind, if we really had a solo fan name, our group fan sisters might say it's Emily's new name~
341LL: Why does this plot feel so familiar? To be honest, EE fans must have inherited the fandom of the WYSIWYG family, right? [Facepalm] This is how our WYSIWYG is.
346L: Actually, we could further limit the range kkk
349L: Then it's not just a matter within the EE fandom.
351L: Everyone says Shang Jiesi's fighting power is off the charts, but who cares about the reasons behind it? It's entirely due to her innate limitations. (A non-fan passing by, just sighing)
353L: My heart aches for Sister Shang for a second kkk
413L: Oh my god, the countdown to the return has begun!
418L: Looking forward to it! (Applause)
421L: Has anyone started a data logging thread? If not, I'll start one in advance.
427L: EE's comeback has been highly anticipated! kkk
430L: The specs look pretty good so far. [Dislike]
443L: Looking forward to the new album stage!
Even more bustling than the forums were the South Korean online social media platforms.
ETE, a magical duo that remains at the center of public attention even when they are not making a comeback.
Leaving aside the "real and fake royal family" and "disqualified relationship" issues involved in the board member controversy at the beginning of the year, ETE has made a lot of noise recently thanks to news about members' individual activities, such as "idols appearing in Chungmuro's selection", "new guests on 'We Got Married'", and "supporting actress in Kim Eun-soo's new drama".
—From this perspective, when someone is accused of being royalty, it's best if they really are royalty.
—I hate those who are unworthy of their positions more than royalty.
Looking forward to our Han team and ETEmini's second album!
When a true royal family emerges, the opinions of the masses are often the least important.
Because whether you care or not, the royal family is there.
People may even develop a rebellious mentality due to excessive talk about royalty, and develop a preference for the "royal family" as described by the public.
These things were a mixed bag for Sanghee.
Some people will naturally feel pity for her, thinking that all of this has nothing to do with her and that she is innocent. Others will feel resentment towards ETE, which may even affect her. After all, she became a director by pledging allegiance to the zaibatsu.
However, for Sanghee, ETE is not yet a pawn to be discarded.
She also handled the confirmation of the two members' individual schedules during this period, and she truly delivered on everything she had promised Lee Young-cheol. Respecting the members' individual development, ETE will be their support.
In short, ETE is a three-person ETE.
Praise and criticism appeared equally on everyone, and compared to before, the present was the best outcome. Han Shangxi was very satisfied with all of this.
On Thursday, the three who returned to the stage went back to the company dormitory together after the live broadcast.
It is true that the three of them now each have their own place to live.
However, when engaging in group activities, staying in a dormitory is a more time-saving option.
The value of sleep time is far more important than comfort.
This is a consensus among the three.
It's always fate that makes you a member of a group.
Now that we've reached this point, maintaining dignity is the best option.
Perhaps Cheng Zhihui and Li Minzhen were aware that their friend was not entirely harmless.
But sometimes, choices are a luxury in life.
After giving up all her trust, she continued to believe that Han Sang-hee was the only option.
After all, even if Han Shangxi really had her own ideas, she was still very good to them.
The royal family has a powerful background, but it's clear that this background won't allow them to do whatever they want.
Li Rongzhe has more than one younger sister.
Professor Shen's use of his daughter always outweighed his love for her.
No one's life can be completely perfect.
This may be fate's curse upon humanity.
Stepping out of the company building, Han Shangxi breathed in the slightly cool air and felt the headache that had suddenly appeared during the live broadcast ease a little. The nails that had been digging into her left palm also loosened a bit at this moment.
If she has time next week, she will go to the hospital for a check-up.
Although she knew that even if she went to the hospital, the most likely outcome would be just to remember to rest well, Han Sang-hee would still choose to go in case things got worse.
Han Shangxi cherishes her remaining hearing in her right ear.
Binaural hearing and unilateral hearing are ultimately different. But she couldn't turn everything back to before the accident; all she could do was maintain the status quo.
Treat unexpected events as gifts, and then continue your journey.
Han Shangxi has always had a very open-minded view of life.
However, someone seemed to care about her health even more than Sang-hee herself.
After learning from Shangxi that she was currently unwell, the man who had just officially become her boyfriend became very nervous.
"Are you sure it's okay?"
I'm coming over now..."
Han Sang-hee felt it necessary to interrupt this person who seemed overly nervous.
"I know what you mean, brother, but there really isn't time to deal with these things right now."
Before making the call, I hesitated about whether to mention it to my senior. But then I thought that hiding it would hurt them even more, so I chose to tell them.
I have complete trust in my seniors, so please trust me too, brother.
I've always been very lucky.
Lying flat on the bed in the dormitory room, Han Shangxi's eyes were fixed on the screen, and he spoke in a very serious tone.
She had anticipated this person's reaction, which is why she mentioned it briefly.
If we don't mention it, and this person finds out from someone else that she went to the hospital next time, it will be even harder to appease her TT
I just didn't expect this person's reaction to be so much bigger than I imagined.
However, it's completely understandable.
This person is also doing it for their own good.
Already having a headache, Han Shangxi sighed softly after trying to clear her mind, feeling her head ache even more.
"knew.
"But since you have a headache, you should get some rest."
Seeing that Kwon Ji-yong had moved on from the topic, Han Sang-hee breathed a sigh of relief and cheerfully said goodnight to him.
What was her real intention when she called tonight?
Oops, I've forgotten something.
After hanging up the phone, Han Shangxi realized that today's call was somewhat different from what he had expected.
I miss my seniors a little.
Looking at the ended call screen, Han Shangxi suddenly regretted hanging up the phone so quickly.
Her schedule was so packed that she didn't have time to meet her boyfriend in person at all.
I should have chatted a little longer.
With these thoughts in a daze, Han Shangxi's breathing gradually calmed down, and she drifted off to sleep.
Han Sang-hee rarely shows any need for anyone other than herself, and she relies more on herself as she grows up.
Kwon Ji-yong was an exception to her.
Just before the alarm rang, Han Shangxi, who had skillfully reached out to turn off the alarm, also opened his eyes.
Today is the first day of ETE's official comeback, and their first stage performance will also be filmed today.
After quickly tidying himself up and making himself look refreshed, Han Shangxi got up and left the room.
For this comeback, ETE has her own dedicated styling team at the company, saving her the trip to the dressing room compared to before.
Upon arriving at the company building, Han Shangxi chose to get her makeup and hair done over having breakfast.
The reason is simple: finishing her makeup allows her to take a break.
With this thought in mind, Han Shangxi pushed open the door to the dressing room. When she saw the unexpected person in the room, her pupils dilated for a moment, and then she turned around to make sure that she had not gone to the wrong floor.
What should I do if someone from my dream appears in reality?
Han Shangxi couldn't help but think about the dream he had last night.
"Are you surprised to see me?"
Kwon Ji-yong's expression was indifferent, revealing no emotion.
Seeing the avoidance in Sang-hee's eyes, Kwon Ji-yong even reflected on whether he had put too much pressure on her yesterday.
However, he only felt at ease when he actually saw Sang-hee.
-----------------------
Author's Note: Kwon Ji-yong: Does Sang-hee not welcome me?
Han Shangxi: [Please do not disturb while I am pleasantly surprised]
...
Even though we think differently, we, the most devoted fans, will still firmly choose each other. Isn't that a kind of appealing quality?
Thank you all for reading, commenting, and supporting my lovely readers!
