Expensive Shen Jiezhu took an expensive car, under the protection of expensive security personnel, to an expensive rental venue to shoot a cheap MV.

As for how cheap it is, it has to be as cheap as possible.

After hearing that Shen Jiezhu participated in the MV, some brand companies wanted to invest in their filming, but they all rejected it.

Different from other songs that contain elements of science fiction, mythology, and the future, their song "Jai Ruk" is a very simple lyrical song that does not require any grand scenes. They do not intend to spend a penny more on any shots that can be completed in real life scenes.

Shen Jiezhu agreed with their idea very much, and the few of them hit it off and went to the first shooting location, a cafe, and started shooting in the true sense of the word.

The so-called cheap travel means spending the least money and getting the best results.

But when it comes to the venue and props, no expense was spared.

The cafe is decorated in medieval British relief style inside and out, with gray-brown candlesticks, candles, flickering flames, carved patterns on tables and chairs, raised window frames, and intricate and exquisite patterns.

Every detail is exquisite.

This is the most famous coffee shop in Bangkok. Its name is Back to the Past, which roughly means that when you walk through this door, you will return to the Middle Ages.

In the past, many TV series were filmed here.

The store is located on a commercial street, the rent is expensive, and it is usually packed with people. The filming crew spent a lot of money to book it for half a day, almost spending 50% of the budget.

The remaining 50% was invested in props, staff and filming equipment, so much so that Shen Jiezhu brought all the clothes for the filming herself.

Although she didn't bring much, every two pieces she brought were very fashionable.

The clothes are obviously a versatile style, but when they appear on her, there is always a feeling that others cannot wear them, as if the clothes were tailor-made for her.

While adjusting the camera position, the photographer did not forget to praise Shen Jiezhu: "Shen, your clothes are of great quality. You look like a painting without any other props. It's really great!"

Although Shen Jiezhu didn't know why he used painting to describe himself, but looking at his expression, it was definitely a good thing.

"Thank you, this cafe is amazing, just like a medieval castle in England. This scene makes my clothes look very classy. Thank you to the teacher who selected the venue for your hard work."

Sister Shen smiled humbly and did not become proud because of his compliment.

When it comes to dressing, she herself certainly doesn't have a good sense of fashion. All the clothes and accessories she brought with her this time were picked out in advance by Kwon Ji-yong.

Who is Kwon Ji-yong?

Fashion leader, TOP1!

It is the one who can single-handedly sell out small accessories that were originally unpopular.

His vision was sharp and venomous, always pointing out her problems. Everything he wore was at the forefront of fashion.

If she told others about this, no one would believe it. It was Quan Zhilong who came to her himself and wanted to pair her up. Shen Jiezhu refused because she was worried that it would delay his practice time. It was only after Quan Zhilong came to her a second time that she agreed.

According to Quan Zhilong's original words——

Pig, the situation abroad is different from that at home.

When you are abroad, so many people are watching you, so there must be no mistakes in your words, behavior, dress, etc.

I will help you match, although I can't say it will be catwalk quality, but it won't be wrong either.

Shen Jiezhu was a soft-hearted person to begin with, so after hearing what he said, she sent the video of the clothes without saying a word.

Quan Zhilong specially selected a few, and Shen Jiezhu tried them one by one for him to see, and the two of them played video for several hours. After choosing, Shen Jiezhu lay on the bed exhausted, and she didn't even want to lift her hands because she was tired.

After Shen Jiezhu relaxed, she fell asleep and even forgot to turn off the video. Quan Zhilong was awake, but he watched her sleep without saying a word, and did not take the initiative to hang up the video, until... his phone ran out of battery and turned off automatically.

Kwon Ji-yong, as he said himself, was really pursuing her very sincerely and expressing his love for her.

Ever since she expressed her feelings last time, roses have been delivered to the Wizarding House on time at 6pm, even though she is now in Thailand.

When she was away, An Shang became a flower girl, responsible for receiving roses every day, then putting them in vases for hydroponics, trying hard to make them bloom longer.

Shen Jiezhu had seen An Shangfa's photos. The vase had gone from empty to full, and the roses were blooming beautifully, each branch looked very fresh.

Just like Kwon Ji-yong's love, it grows stronger day by day.

She was not blind, it was impossible for her not to see his attitude, nor was she in the habit of playing with other people's feelings. Now, she could only try to respond to him with the same attitude, until...

The romance ended.

Only then can they truly talk about the future together.

While the staff were still preparing, Shen Jiezhu took out her mobile phone, secretly took a work photo, and sent it to Quan Zhilong.

[Shen Jiezhu: We are preparing for the shoot. Oppa, are you still practicing? ]

Quan Zhilong didn't see the message from Shen Jiezhu for the time being because he was having an argument.

Arguing with the company, with the senior management, and with the artist directors.

In the conference room, Quan Zhilong sat on a chair, looking coldly at the person in front of him who was beaming with joy. The mockery and dissatisfaction in his eyes became more and more obvious.

He was sitting and the man was standing, and their auras collided, but the one sitting was more powerful.

"Zhilong, Shen Jiezhu's identity is not simple. You'd better stay away from her and separate your work and life. Didn't you do well before? Why are you trapped now?"

...Kwon Ji-yong didn't move, as if he didn't hear what he said.

The artist director was so angry that his face turned red and his fists clenched tighter and tighter.

During this time, he frequently saw GD and Sim Ji Joo's "sweets" on the Internet. He originally thought that they were forced sweets by CP fans, but he didn't expect them to be authentic soft sweets!

Realizing that something was wrong, he immediately contacted Nam Tae-hee, and got a conclusion that she couldn't believe at all.

GD has fallen in love with Sim Je Joo!

It was just a joke, but it turned out to be real!

This is a romance variety show. There are so many romance varieties in Korea. Every artist who participates in the romance variety show knows in their hearts that this is fake!

This is just a job, a channel to increase your fame. As long as you cooperate well, you can soar to the sky and become a hot star.

So they frantically create sweet spots, conquer the audience with their acting skills, give the audience the illusion that they are already in love, attract a large number of CP fans, and then purify the fans by abusing them, turning the CP fans into their own fans.

Everyone in the community knows that this is not true.

When the camera is off, they are just ordinary partners. They may appear to be inseparable in the romance variety show, but they may hate each other in real life.

Kwon Ji-yong has been in the industry for so many years and has seen so many stories behind romance variety shows. He should have been the most sober person, but he was lost in the brief warmth and couldn't extricate himself.

This is outrageous!

"I got the news that An Zai Chul will come to Lee Yoona's birthday party, and he is here for Shim Ji Joo. Now people in the wealthy circle are saying that Shim Ji Joo is An Zai Chul's illegitimate daughter. Who is An Zai Chul? Do you think he would let his daughter associate with an artist?"

That's An Zai Che, a stubborn old man who is most particular about matching up with someone of equal social status. In his eyes, love is nothing, no matter what kind of feelings it is, they all have to give way to the honor and dignity of the family!

If Shen Jiezhu's identity is true, then she and GD are absolutely impossible!

First of all, An Zai Che can’t get past that level.

"You've been in the industry for so many years, you should know the distance between the financial industry and the entertainment industry, Zhilong, I'm helping you, not harming you! Break up with her as soon as possible, it will be good for both you and her!"

…

"Are you listening to me?"

Kwon Ji-yong was silent for a long time. After the artist director gave him a cold shout, he finally responded. Unfortunately, it was not the response they wanted.

"Has Zhuzhu's identity been confirmed?"

Director Yiren was stunned, as if she had not expected him to ask this: "An Zai Che is here, how can we confirm this unclear matter?"

"So..." Kwon Ji-yong's voice flowed in the huge conference room. The morning sunshine was very warm and had long driven away the chill of the night, but where his voice passed, the temperature suddenly dropped.

"You are using a guess to make me give up Zhuzhu, right?"

"This is not speculation..."

"If not speculation, then what is it?" Quan Zhilong picked up the document in front of him, glanced at the cooperation project between Shen Jiezhu and the wealthy family, and threw it in the middle of the table.

"Can these things replace the paternity certificate? Or can they replace the official statement of the An family?"

"Zhilong, you are a smart person. I don't believe you. You can't see the trick. Why do you have to lie to yourself now? Getting out of this wrong relationship as soon as possible is the way you should go!"

The artist director looked as if he had everything under control, and in the tone of someone with experience, he "earnestly" advised him to break up the relationship as soon as possible.

Quan Zhilong looked at his face and listened to his words and just found it funny.

The four simple words "break up with her" that they said lightly were just nothing more than that. However, they never thought about what these four words meant to him.

They don't care at all.

They are just afraid of the future where Ahn Jae-cheol will put pressure on YG, and this future is just their guess.

"I know exactly what path I want to take, and I also know who I like and who I care about. No one has the right to interfere in my relationship. This is my own business and has nothing to do with you."

"Zhilong, we have never cared about you before. We didn't care who you dated, who you were with, what you said, or what you did. But this time is different! The other party is Shen Jiezhu!"

"An Sheng once liked a foreign female singer. The girl followed him from campus to society and finally entered the entertainment industry. An Zai Chul suddenly intervened and forced the two to break up. The girl's agency was suppressed to the brink of bankruptcy, and the girl was forced to withdraw from the entertainment industry and disappeared from then on."

"This incident caused a lot of uproar back then. You can easily see how miserable the girl's fate was by just looking at it online. Do you want to be like her?"

Quan Zhilong pursed his lips and finally lifted his eyelids to look at the artist director in front of him. His bottomless eyes were filled with things he couldn't understand.

"Of course I know that."

After hearing this, Kwon Ji-yong seemed to be relenting. The artist director had just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard him continue.

"But, Shen Jiezhu is not An Sheng, and I am not that girl. My flower ordering time is up. Sorry, I have to leave first."

After saying this, Quan Zhilong turned and left.

There were a lot of people gathered at the door of the conference room. The moment we opened it, everyone immediately shifted their gazes and lowered their heads, as if they were doing their own thing, without any gossip at all.

Quan Zhilong walked among them. When he saw the message sent to him by Shen Jiezhu, a smile suddenly appeared on his expressionless face.

[Kwon Ji-yong: This cafe is so special, it’s different from ordinary cafes, right? ]

[Shen Jiezhu: Right, right, it’s a medieval style! This cafe has a lot of beautiful souvenirs, I’ll bring you some when I go back! You’ll definitely like it, Oppa!]

[Kwon Ji-yong: Pig, aren't you going to fly to the US? It's too troublesome to bring souvenirs with you. Let's go on a trip together next time and buy them.]

【Shen Jiezhu: Travel? Sure, sure! 】
