Chapter 16 A Beautiful Misunderstanding
Originally, dating a rich girl wasn't a big deal for a rich man. With his current wealth, he didn't need to rely on others. On the contrary, because of Xue Jingrong's family background, he had never considered her as his girlfriend before. But when Seungri said this, it became like he was just trying to curry favor with her, and marrying into a wealthy family in the future was a sure thing for her. - Seungri, do you really think so? Are you really that eager to marry Captain Quan off?
Well, no one could predict the future, but Seungri's jubilation was definitely a death wish. At any other time, the youngest member would have been taken away by Captain Kwon and taken good care of. But right now, G-Dragon was in no mood to listen to what his youngest member was saying. He didn't look away until Dong Yang and Jing Rong were completely out of sight. At this time, Taeyang also stepped forward and touched his shoulder, "Jiyong, let's go."
G-Dragon paused, looked back again, and then nodded and left with Taeyang. Taeyang sighed softly and glanced at G-Dragon a few times, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, he didn't say it, but just comforted him, "You guys used to be apart for a lot of time, so it's okay to have some distance between you. We'll be active in China for several months from now, so spend some time with her."
G-Dragon said nothing, but gave Taeyang his usual smile. Taeyang thought he had listened, and felt relieved. He patted his shoulder and walked ahead with Top. In fact, G-Dragon's mood was far less bright than the smile on his face. Jing Rong's attitude towards G-Dragon was very good this time. When he hugged her in public, his limbs were obviously stiff, but he didn't break free. He also apologized and explained to him in a gentle manner, and took the initiative to treat everyone here to dinner at her hotel, etc. If it were any other time, G-Dragon would probably be very happy. Judging from Jing Rong's recent attitude, this is simply a qualitative breakthrough. However, people can't stand the comparison. As her boyfriend, he didn't even know she was coming back today, while Dong Yang only had some work interactions with her, but he actually went to the airport to pick her up in person - they said it was a last-minute schedule, so they must have communicated frequently to have such a tacit understanding. There is also Jingrong's attitude towards Taeyang. Although it is not completely enthusiastic, the warmth in his eyes cannot be ignored. In the past, G-Dragon would think that Jingrong is enthusiastic about Taeyang because she loves him and his family, but now TOP, Daesung and Seungri are all here, why doesn't she show indiscriminate closeness to him?
G-Dragon doesn't want to admit that his girlfriend may have really changed her mind. It's not just a matter of charm. He feels that his momentary weakness is a joke. The woman who used to insist on being with him has changed her mind in less than three months. How ridiculous! He actually believed the love she talked about at that time!
This kind of discouraged thought only flashed through G-Dragon's mind for a moment, and he quickly recovered his composure. He is a dedicated man who eliminates distractions during work and leaves things to be discussed later.
On the other side, Dong Yang, who was showing Jing Rong around the studio, asked with great interest, "Is G-Dragon really your boyfriend?"
"Do you believe me if I tell you it's fake?"
Dong Yang shrugged. "Okay, I just wanted to express my shock. How long have you been together?"
"About two or three months."
"Given your usual style, it's amazing that you were able to hide the fact that your boyfriend is a famous star for so long."
"Do you think it's appropriate to complain like this in front of me?"
Dong Yang shrugged: "I know you won't mind." In fact, Dong Yang really didn't think Jing Rong and Quan Zhilong would be serious. He was also half an insider, and he had heard about Quan Zhilong's personality and preferences. He didn't believe that he would have a serious talk with Jing Rong. Of course, Jing Rong was the same. When he was investigating Chairman Xue's recent actions, he found some very interesting things. What's more interesting is that even he could find out, proving that Chairman Xue had no intention of hiding it at all. With Jing Rong's current personality, she couldn't have been unaware of it. If she resisted such a big thing, the scene would definitely be very big, but she did nothing, which is very telling.
Dong Yang felt that he had a general understanding of Jing Rong's personality. He no longer worried about other things. He leisurely showed Jing Rong around the entire studio and asked, "Would you like to sit in my office?"
"No, I have some things to deal with at the hotel."
"Okay, I'll take you there."
Jing Rong shook his head: "Thank you, but no need, the driver is waiting downstairs."
Dong Yang nodded: "Okay, I'll take you down."
It was already past eight o'clock when G-Dragon finished recording his show. MC Gao was the only female among the hosts present, so she did not go to dinner with G-Dragon and the others. After all, it would probably be around eleven or twelve o'clock after dinner. Although it was G-Dragon's girlfriend who treated them, it would not be good if others saw them.
From PD to MC, and then to all the members of Big Bang, a large group of people went to the Jinxiu Nianhua Hotel, which was also very eye-catching. Celebrities usually go to restaurants with a membership system for meals, and few people go to hotels to eat. Even if they go to a hotel to book a room, they will not choose Jinxiu Nianhua. So the hotel staff were serving such heavyweight stars for the first time. Although they didn't say it out loud, they were actually quite excited. This also proved that Jingrong's recent reorganization was very effective. If it were in the past, probably no one would have the heart to work at this time.
Jing Rong, for once, abused her power for personal gain, arranging a rarely used private room for Quan Zhilong and his group. Her own treatment wasn't much different from the rest of the hotel management: she worked the same hours, ate in the cafeteria, and never missed work unless necessary. Overtime was common, and she was very approachable—of course, this was just her own opinion. The hotel staff, from top to bottom, thought she was just looking for a different kind of experience. Regardless, everyone was used to Jing Rong's style, and her sudden invitation to her friend to such a high-level room still surprised everyone. Assistant Zhang, returning from a business trip, heard the staff discussing the situation in the hallway. Curious, he went to ask Jing Rong about it, only to be confronted by Jing Rong.
"Assistant Zhang, my friends will be here soon. I can't leave for the moment, so please go and greet them for me." Jing Rong was discussing ideas with Mr. Fang from China on the phone. The plan for the hotel-bar integration still needed a lot of patient planning before it could be submitted to the board of directors. Jing Rong had been to the bar under Mr. Fang's hotel and thought it was necessary to learn from predecessors in this area. More importantly, Mr. Fang was a workaholic who was no less than her. It was rare to have such time, and Jing Rong cherished it very much.
Zhang Jingran smiled and asked gently, "Can I ask what kind of friend it is?"
"It's my boyfriend and some of his friends." Jing Rong said it frankly, completely ignoring how much shock this news would bring to others.
A hint of doubt flashed across Zhang Jingran's eyes, but it quickly disappeared. He continued to smile gently, "I see. President, you go ahead and do your work. I'll take someone to the door and wait for you."
Zhang Jingran had thought the president's boyfriend was definitely not an ordinary person, but even after preparing himself mentally, his pupils still shrank slightly when he saw the group of people getting off the car, and he was obviously shocked. When did their serious president get involved with a big star?!
After a difficult 11-year hiatus, Big Bang has been stunningly successful since their return to the stage with their unstoppable performance. Their new album has overshadowed everything else, and it's easy to imagine that the new year will also mark a new era for Big Bang, one that will conquer not only Korea and Asia, but the world! A Big Bang world tour is already in the works. When this group of people appears, everything else becomes a sideshow. Zhang Jingran clearly hears the quiet screams of the waiters behind him, but he calms down. It's nothing, or perhaps their seemingly serious president just likes this. He just doesn't know which one is the real boss.
Zhang Jingran's eyes flickered between Top and Taeyang. Top's aloof, handsome appearance would likely suit his boss' taste, but he also felt that the man who could melt something as close to an iceberg as a river would be Taeyang, a man with a pleasant demeanor even without a smile. Of course, Daesung's honesty might also be a trait their boss favored. Seungri might also be a possibility, the infamous Gwangju rascal. Though not as steady as he could be, his slick, playful, and cute personality would be highly appealing in a relationship between an older woman and a younger man. Zhang Jingran, on the other hand, immediately rejected the real deal. Perhaps in a woman's eyes, Captain Kwon was the most impressive of Big Bang's members. But men know men, and Zhang Jingran knew G-Dragon's personality. He was sure his boss knew it, too. Unless she was a masochist, how could she choose a man like that?
Upon closer analysis, it turns out that Zhang Jingran was the friendliest towards G-Dragon. Since the president didn't specify who he should take special care of, he simply made the main character the captain. Of course, Zhang Jingran was very tactful. Although G-Dragon was the centerpiece, he didn't neglect the others either, perfectly managing to take care of everything. Anyway, TOP Seungri and the others were quite satisfied. The people Jingrong arranged were equally enthusiastic towards them, proving that Jingrong himself values them very much. It feels so good to be valued.
G-Dragon, who was paying close attention, noticed this slight difference and his depressed mood for the whole afternoon finally improved a little. It seemed that his girlfriend had not completely given up on treatment. Her special assistant took care of him in every possible way, which must have been something she had specifically instructed him to do.
I have to say, this is such a beautiful misunderstanding.
