Chapter 153 Mizuhara: They can’t possibly be in such a childish relationship, right?
When Ye-eun returned upstairs, CL was the only one left in the living room.
She glanced at Yi-eun who had returned safely, and couldn't help but raised her hand and yawned. Glancing at Ye-eun's swollen lips, CL raised her eyebrows and asked, "GD Oppa is back?"
"Yeah." Ye-eun touched the tip of her ear which was still burning and nodded, "He will stay in Japan for a few days."
CL nodded. Although Ye-eun and GD were in a relationship, neither of them had missed their work, so she was naturally relieved.
The first thing Kwon Ji-yong did when he woke up the next afternoon was to check the messages on his phone, and sure enough, Ye-eun had already gone to work.
He lay on his back, his black hair resting on the pillow, flipping through photos on his phone boredly.
It was almost all Ye-eun, except for himself. There are photos of Ye-eun frowning as she rushed to a due date, photos of Ye-eun squatting to bathe the two children, and photos of him pressing Ye-eun to kiss her...
Just by looking at the photos, Kwon Ji-yong can recall everything that happened at that time. He couldn't help but curl his eyes and scan the pictures one by one, until Jiahu and Zhuli finally couldn't help but slap the bed with their paws, then he realized that he had to take the two children for a walk.
After stuffing himself with a piece of bread, Quan Zhilong, wearing a mask and a hat, pulled the two leash and said helplessly, "Little guys, slow down."
Even though they were in an unfamiliar environment, Jiahu and Zhu Li were not afraid. Instead, they excitedly pulled Quan Zhilong and headed towards the trail.
Brother Lao Hu was wearing casual clothes and following Quan Zhilong with an expressionless face. He thought that his employer had less work recently so he could take a break, but he didn't expect to be called to Japan again after just two days of rest.
He sighed inwardly, and stood outside the door with Jiahu and Julie, while Quan Zhilong went into a second-hand shop.
Because of the bubble economy period in Japan, there are a lot of second-hand stores. Most of the things inside are vintage and unique, and many of the products are limited edition items that are no longer available. Almost all people who love fashion like to go to second-hand stores.
Quan Zhilong is naturally no exception.
This store specializes in selling famous watches, from the popular Rolex to models that are no longer available on the market. It even provides a limited edition selling service.
Quan Zhilong had been here several times before and had bought several watches through the owner. The owner was originally chatting with a girl, and he noticed it as soon as he came in, "Hey, GD!"
Hearing GD, Soo Joo raised an eyebrow, turned to look at Kwon Ji Yong, met his surprised eyes, raised his hand and greeted: "Hey, see you again."
Quan Zhilong felt a little surprised to meet her in Japan. He raised his hand and shook her hand: "Noona, what a coincidence."
Park Soo-joo was born in South Korea and raised in the United States. She entered the modeling industry after being discovered by a photographer in an antique shop in the United States a few years ago. Her perfect height of 178 cm and fashionable and photogenic face made her a well-known Korean model in Europe and the United States in just two years.
The two of them had met at a Chanel party last year. Since they were both Korean, they chatted casually at the time. Unexpectedly, they got along very well and found out that they both knew Lee Joo Hyuk. Due to various coincidences, they soon became friends.
Park Soo-joo glanced at Quan Zhilong and asked curiously, "Why did you come to Japan?"
The two Koreans started communicating in Korean in Japan. The owner shrugged helplessly and turned back to admiring the various watches he had found.
Quan Zhilong smiled and said casually: "I'm coming to Japan to play for two days."
"Ah." Park Soo-joo glanced at him and didn't ask any more questions. After thinking for a while, she asked, "There's a party tonight. Do you want to come? They're all people from the same circle."
After all, the other party is a very popular artist in Asia. Park Soo-joo added: "It's private."
Quan Zhilong thought about it and felt a little conflicted. It is natural that he likes to go to various parties, but this time he wants to be with Ye Eun more.
Seeing him like this, Park Soo-joo suddenly smiled and said, "Why, do you have a date?"
Just now, Quan Zhilong said that he would come to Japan to play for two days, and she was a little curious. He came alone? Now that I think about it, it seems that I was with friends.
She casually said, "Bring your friends along so we can get to know each other."
Quan Zhilong thought for a moment and said, "I'll ask her if she has time."
Although Ye-eun is a warm and outgoing person, she is not very interested in parties. Compared to drinking and chatting with a bunch of strangers, she prefers to hang out with people she knows.
Thinking of this, Quan Zhilong couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth again, feeling a little regretful in his heart. Oh, why go to a party? Wouldn't it be better for them to have time to be alone together?
However, since it was an invitation from his acquaintance, he still asked when Ye-eun finished her work today.
Unexpectedly, Ye-eun nodded this time and said, "Okay."
Their itinerary in Japan this time is the same as Bigbang's at the beginning of the year. They are carrying out the "choice is yours" event organized by the TV station, that is, the artists take a specially made tram by the program team to tour fixed stages in various streets.
The songs for each performance are randomly chosen by fans. This kind of activity is fun and not too tiring. The tour starts at nine o'clock every day and they can finish work at five o'clock in the afternoon.
Yien thought, since Zhilong came all the way to accompany her, she might as well accompany him for a while.
She touched her nose guiltily. After all, most of the time when he invited her to various clubs or parties, she refused, which resulted in Quan Zhilong either breaking the appointment or leaving early after going.
Kwon Ji-yong was unaware of her "guilt" and kept stealing glances at Yi-eun's expression when he brought her into the bar.
Ye-en looked at the bar carefully. It was a little different from the lively clubs in Korea. The bars in Japan seemed to be more retro and gorgeous. The counter was filled with various cocktail tools. The bartender stood at the counter in a suit, looking luxurious and noble.
There happened to be a short-haired girl standing in front of the bartender ordering drinks. Unlike ordinary bars where the bartender prepares drinks after the customers take orders, this bartender actually randomly mixes suitable drinks for the customers through a brief chat.
"Every glass of wine is a story that belongs to the guest."
Yien glanced at the slogan on the bar counter and found it interesting. She let go of Kwon Ji-yong's hand and walked quickly to the girl, wanting to see the bartender's performance.
It was at this moment that she turned her head to look at the girl with short hair, and was surprised to find that she met her again.
Quan Zhilong tilted his head helplessly as he looked at Ye Eun who was suddenly in high spirits, and smiled at Park Xiuzhu who was coming towards him: "Noona, I'll go over to accompany her first."
Park Soo-joo glanced at the girl who was wearing a simple shirt and jeans but could not hide her artist temperament. She was kneeling on one knee on a high stool. The stool was so high, but her other slender leg was able to stand firmly on the ground. With this figure, she is actually a good material for being a model.
I just don't know what it is used for? Having been developing in the United States, she is not familiar with Japanese and Korean idol groups, but she knows GD, so he should be in the same industry.
She looked at the curious look on the girl's face, then glanced at Quan Zhilong, whose eyes were fixed on her, and smiled meaningfully: "Go ahead."
Quan Zhilong gave her an apologetic smile, walked towards Yien, and sat down on the high stool next to her, "What are you looking at?"
Without even turning her head, Ye-eun knew who was sitting behind her. She covered her mouth and whispered, "This cocktail-mixing method is so interesting."
Suddenly, two more customers appeared. The bartender glanced at them and continued to ask, "Why did you suddenly cut your hair short, Mizuhara?"
Kiko Mizuhara was stunned for a moment when she came over from Ye-eun. After all, today's party was basically for people in the fashion circle, and it would be very abrupt for an idol like her to appear here.
And when she saw GD actually followed her to sit at the bar, she couldn't help but straighten her back, and her whole body tensed up.
After all, she knew 2NE1 and this girl named Lee Ye-eun only because she followed Bigbang... To be more direct, it was because she followed GD.
The bartender looked at Kiko Mizuhara who suddenly became dazed and asked again in confusion.
Kiko Mizuhara finally woke up, blinked, and raised her hand to push the hair behind her ear as if nothing had happened. "For the audition, I cut off the long hair that I cherished for so many years."
When she said this, her eyes didn't turn to the right, but her peripheral vision kept looking at the two people on the right.
GD seemed to have no interest in the bartender's conversation with her. He was holding his chin up and looking at the drinks on the bar, and that girl...
The curiosity in her eyes was almost overflowing, and she was actually kneeling on a high stool with one foot...
Looking at the other person's childish appearance, Kiko Mizuhara suddenly felt relieved. After reading so many news reports, she was actually a little confused about the relationship between this girl and GD.
Even when I saw the other person's imposing look in the elevator that day, I was a little worried.
But today, when she saw the other person's childish look, she suddenly laughed. It seemed impossible that a playboy like GD would like such a childish girl.
She relaxed completely, and like GD, she raised her hand to support her chin and continued chatting with the bartender: "It's the audition for 'Norwegian Wood' that I told you about before."
When Quan Zhilong heard the familiar name of the book, he turned around and looked at the girl.
Sensing Quan Zhilong's gaze, Kiko Mizuhara's eyelashes trembled, knowing that she had just touched on a topic that the other party was interested in. She continued to talk about the audition, "I cut my hair to better fit the role."
They had followed the director to the TV station for a press conference a few days ago. Anyone who had been paying attention would naturally know that she had signed for the role of Midori, so it was not a leak to talk about the movie here.
The bartender glanced at Mizuhara, lowered his head and put the lime slice close to the edge of the glass and turned it around, while wetting the glass, he asked: "So Mizuhara, do you think Watanabe loves Naoko or Midori?"
Kiko Mizuhara thought for a moment and found that the two people beside her were looking at her with a little curiosity. Although she knew that GD didn't know her, she couldn't help but sit up slightly to make her sitting posture more upright.
"Midori?" She thought about it and decided to answer the role she was about to play. Everyone has their own ideas about this question. Some people think that Naoko, a girl who has a physical and mental connection with Watanabe, is Watanabe's true love, while others think that Midori, who pulled Watanabe out of loneliness, is the protagonist's true love.
Kiko Mizuhara continued, "After all, Watanabe said to Midori, 'I love you so much that all the tigers in the forests of the world melt into butter.'"
As she spoke, she couldn't help but glance at GD out of the corner of her eye. However, the girl next to her just changed her posture from kneeling to sitting upright, blocking her view.
I don’t know whether the other party did it intentionally or unintentionally, but at least from this angle I can’t see GD unless I turn my head.
Kiko Mizuhara looked at the bartender in front of her as if nothing had happened: "If you don't like Midori, why would you say such a thing?"
The bartender curled the corners of his mouth and nodded regardless of whether he agreed or not. After all, literary works are meant to be interpreted.
There are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people.
He turned the glass upside down on a small plate with a salt plate and spun it around, then put ice cubes into a shaker and poured in a half ounce of tequila, brandy orange liqueur and agave nectar.
The bartender glanced at Mizuhara, whose movements and expressions had changed since GD came over, and said nonchalantly, "How about I make you a chili marg? You were able to cut your long hair short for the audition, are you still very ambitious and eager?"
Kiko Mizuhara raised her eyebrows, watched the other party pour the lime juice into the shaker and start mixing it, and nodded, "Okay."
Ambition and desire? She couldn't help but laugh. These two words are not considered derogatory in the entertainment industry.
She raised her hand and touched the hair beside her ears. The black hair, which had just been cut short, was smooth. Although she was not used to it, it helped her get an important role.
Seizing the opportunity, Kiko Mizuhara took the drink from the bartender, said thank you, then stood up casually, looked around, and did not leave. Instead, she walked to the right as if to make way for Ye-eun who was coming next.
He just happened to sit next to Quan Zhilong.
Kwon Ji-yong raised his eyebrows and nodded to the girl, without saying hello, he turned to look at Ye-eun again.
After taking a sip of wine, Kiko Mizuhara lowered her eyes for a moment, then suddenly raised the corners of her mouth, gently placed the Chili Mary with lime slices floating on it in front of herself, supported her chin with one hand, and slightly turned to the left. GD and Lee Ye-eun appeared in her sight at the same time.
Yeen looked at the bartender with some anticipation. Okay, it’s her turn!
The bartender was amused by the girl's expectant look and couldn't help but curl his eyes, "What's the name of this guest?"
"Lee Ye-en, the Lee from Bruce Lee." Ye-en looked at the bartender with full anticipation, curious about what he wanted to talk to her about and what kind of drink he would mix for her.
"Is Miss Ye-eun also an artist?" The bartender lowered his head to wipe off the remaining water stains from the cocktail he had prepared. His movements were gentle and his tone was curious. "Is she a singer, an actress, or a model?"
Ye-eun propped her chin up with both hands and looked at the other person curiously with a mischievous look in her eyes: "Guess?"
"Huh?" The bartender was stunned for a moment, looking at Ye-eun and then at GD beside her, "If you come with GD, then I guess a singer?"
Ye Eun shook her head seriously: "No, no, GD doesn't hang out with the music industry, he hangs out with the fashion industry, so I am, the owner of a used store!"
"..." Not to mention the bartender, even Kiko Mizuhara pursed her lips. She could talk nonsense and joke playfully with strangers. She must be a very well-protected girl.
Sure enough, Quan Zhilong couldn't help but smile, holding his face with one hand, his eyes never leaving Yien, and said in a long tone: "What are you doing, talk to others properly."
This tone... Kiko Mizuhara couldn't help but take a sip of wine. Is he treating her as a younger sister? But this look was so focused that it made her confused.
"Okay. Singer." Ye-eun sighed and glanced at Quan Zhilong. She happened to see the girl behind him looking at her. She was stunned for a moment and looked away. "Don't I look like the owner of a second-hand store?"
The bartender laughed, looked Ye-eun up and down, and shook his head honestly, "Not like that."
He took out another cup, turned around and took the juicer from the cabinet, then took out cherries and pineapples from the fruit bowl beside him.
There was no need to have a deep conversation. From the introduction, I could tell that this girl was sunny, confident and cheerful. The bartender carefully pitted the cherries and peeled the pineapple. Her hands were cautious and she said casually, "Ms. Ye-en's expression changed when she heard about Norwegian Wood. Have you read this book too?"
Ye-eun nodded, watching the bartender’s actions curiously.
Quan Zhilong knew what kind of wine the other party was going to mix from these ingredients, and couldn't help but curl his lips and said teasingly, "It suits her very well."
I had no idea what drink the bartender was going to make for me, but the man next to me already knew. Kiko Mizuhara frowned and took another sip of the wine from the glass.
Moreover, GD's behavior of interrupting at any time is so unlike his personality.
What is the relationship? Kiko Mizuhara rubbed her fingers, thoughtfully.
Ye-eun was very curious, so she turned to ask Quan Zhilong: "Is it suitable for me? What kind of wine is it?"
Quan Zhilong raised his hand and pushed her head, asking her to face the bartender again. "You can see for yourself, right?"
“Oh…” Ye-eun mumbled, “Tell me what it is. I don’t know its name anyway.”
Kiko Mizuhara, on one side, supported her face with her hand and touched her cheek, and shook her wine glass with the other hand, carefully observing the way the two people got along.
This is completely different from the GD she knew. She narrowed her eyes slightly. It’s impossible that GD’s style of dating is so childish, right?
She curled the corners of her mouth and cursed herself in her heart for being outrageous.
That's the GD who looks so arrogant...
The other person's gaze suddenly fixed on him for a long time. Quan Zhilong, who could always capture the camera on the stage, frowned, but he couldn't be rude and directly ask the other person not to look at him, right?
He put down his feet from the stool leg as if nothing had happened, and looked up at the wine on the wine cabinet again. As if something on the left had aroused his curiosity, Kwon Ji-yong stood up casually, walked around Yi-eun, and sat quietly on her left.
Ye-eun, who was in the center position again, was confused for a moment, looked at Kwon Ji-yong on her left and blinked. Kwon Ji-yong couldn't help but blink at her, then lowered his head and smiled as if nothing had happened.
The bartender looked at the two people's little movements and couldn't help shaking his head and curling his lips, and continued the previous topic: "Then Miss Yeen, who do you think Watanabe loves?"
