Chapter 51 Hite Beer
After getting off the plane, the two of them hid in a corner and whispered to each other.
Seeing her manager not far away, Han Yunxing quietly tugged at Kwon Ji-yong's sleeve: "I'm leaving first."
The hand that was about to pull away was grabbed by Kwon Ji-yong, and Han Yoon-sung felt a sweet warmth in her heart, her eyes crinkling into a smile.
Kwon Ji-yong looked at Han Yoon-sung without saying a word, then suddenly stepped forward and hugged her.
Han Yunxing was pulled into his arms, her eyes widening instantly, and she gently struggled to break free by placing her hands against his chest.
"Let me double-check."
Kwon Ji-yong quickly released his embrace, and a faint fragrance lingered around Han Yoon-sung's nose.
Hearing his words, Han Yunxing's dimples widened in a smile. The two of them were still together, and she felt a pang of reluctance.
Being together seems like a very abstract concept. Han Yunxing hadn't figured out what it really felt like before the two of them had to go off to focus on their careers.
Shen Lina subtly observed Han Yunxing. As soon as Han Yunxing got into the car, she lowered her head and started texting. She noticed something and had a sweet smile on her face.
Back at the company, Shen Lina sat down next to Han Yunxing with two cups of coffee in her hand.
Although Han Yunxing was looking at her phone, she noticed out of the corner of her eye that the person next to her was hesitant to speak. Her hands stopped moving, and she waited for Shen Lina to speak.
Before Shin Lina could reply, Han Yoon-sung put down her phone, turned around, and asked, "Unnie, is something wrong?"
"Hmm... Yoon-sung," Shin Lina rubbed the cup in her hand, carefully choosing her words, "What a coincidence, we're on the same flight as GDxi today..."
"Unnie," Han Yunxing's eyes revealed straightforward joy, "we're together."
Shen Lina sighed; she knew it would be like this.
Since the artist has no intention of hiding anything, she has to make her stance clear from the outset: "Don't treat your fans as good friends, and don't treat them as fools either."
"You two had better keep zero interaction in public lately."
She remembered something: "He'll be enlisting soon too."
Enlisting in the military in South Korea is practically a dating killer. Shin Lina is even starting to agonize over whether to report it to her company. Judging from Han Yoon-sung's expression, this relationship has only just begun. Relationships between celebrities are so fragile.
Moreover, Kwon Ji-yong's small group of fans are quite formidable, so we must avoid any further disturbances during this sensitive time.
Not following Kwon Ji-yong's alternate account, Shin Lina was unaware of his loose tongue. She quietly looked at Han Yoon-sung: "Yoon-sung, you're not a singer yet, you're an idol. Remember what happened after the last live stream?"
Han Yunxing lowered her head. She actually wanted to say that she couldn't deceive her fans, but Shen Lina said to her in return, "If you have confidence, take it one step at a time."
"Like you said, since things haven't stabilized, there's no need to let too many people know. Isn't that right?"
After saying that, he rushed off to find the president, leaving Han Yunxing deep in thought. The joy that had lasted from yesterday seemed to have faded.
For reasons unknown, President Hong did not personally ask her for details, but simply told Shen Lina to keep an eye on the online trends.
That evening, when Kwon Ji-yong video-called Han Yoon-sung, she told him about her company.
"Oppa, you're about to enlist in the military."
Han Yunxing buried most of her face in the pillow and said in a muffled voice.
The facts that she had been deliberately ignoring were laid bare before her eyes as Shen Lina spoke frankly.
Kwon Ji-yong was still in the practice room, casually wiping his sweat with the towel hanging around his neck. Upon hearing this, he raised his eyebrows and looked sharply at the person on the other side of the camera.
"It's no use regretting it now."
He took a breath, picked up his coat from the stool and put it on. After the rustling sound, his face loomed closer and closer.
"Our babe isn't a bad girl, is she?"
The deep, magnetic voice made Han Yunxing's ears turn red.
What nonsense is this person talking about? He's just asking about enlisting.
Kwon Ji-yong let out a laugh, stretched out his slender fingers to trace Han Yoon-sung's fair and delicate profile through the screen, and sighed, "What should I do? I miss you."
The topic of enlisting in the military was thus avoided, and the conversation turned into tender moments between the newlyweds.
When Han Yunxing woke up the next day and turned on her phone, she found that the call from the previous day had continued until a few hours earlier, by which time she had already fallen asleep.
After sending a good morning message to the other party, Han Yunxing got into the nanny van.
Han Yunxing was surprised that Shen Lina had actually secured a beer endorsement for her. On the way to the shoot, she wrinkled her nose and leaned on the shoulder of the person next to her: "Unnie, are we really going to drink later?"
Worried about embarrassing herself on camera after drinking, Han Yunxing tried to struggle.
"I might drink a little, don't worry, I'll be there the whole time." Shen Lina said seriously. She had negotiated with the brand several times, but Haite Beer wanted to cooperate with them not only because of the recent popularity of "Sky City", but also because of the popularity of Han Yunxing's live drinking broadcast.
We cannot guarantee that there will be no product references during the filming process.
Knowing there was no way to avoid it, Han Yunxing took the hangover medicine handed to him by Shen Lina and drank it all in one gulp.
Seeing Han Yunxing's expression as if she were about to go to war, Shen Lina smiled and patted her hand: "I've had contact with their team, and they seem like nice people."
"We will no longer accept wine agents."
It wasn't to the point of refusing. Since she chose to be an endorser, she had to be a qualified one. When Han Yunxing arrived at the scene, she smiled and bowed to greet the brand representatives.
"Yunxing-xi has seen our shooting plan, right?"
The contact person confirmed with Han Yunxing and introduced the scene to her.
After familiarizing herself with the location, Han Yunxing changed into her filming outfit.
MT (Master of Management) activities for first-year university students.
A long table was set up on the lawn, around which sat twenty or thirty people.
Han Yunxing was wearing a shirt and skirt, with a pair of black-rimmed glasses perched on her nose.
After she finished introducing herself somewhat reservedly, she sat quietly in her seat, listening to the laughter and chatter of others.
When someone tried to talk to her, she smiled but didn't say anything. Seeing Han Yunxing's expression, the person quickly left, bored.
Sigh, as expected, nobody wants to be friends with me.
A bitter feeling welled up inside Han Yunxing, and he looked down at the Haite beer on the long wooden table.
Han Yunxing yanked open the bottle cap and, under the horrified gazes of those around her, chug the liquor straight from the bottle. The overflowing liquid slid down her Adam's apple and down her collarbone, glistening with a crystalline light.
She put down the bottle, ripped the hair tie holding her ponytail in place, and tossed her seaweed-like hair.
"Alright! Next scene!"
At the director's command, four or five staff members stepped forward to set up the venue, and Shen Lina also quickly walked to Han Yunxing's side.
"Are you alright?"
Han Yunxing nodded and gave an OK sign.
After changing into a red halter dress, she went back into the photoshoot.
A rosy blush tinged the cheeks with a thin layer of foundation, and Han Yunxing's usually clear eyes sparkled with a misty light as she stood in the center.
"Come on, the second performance!"
Upon hearing the opening, Han Yunxing and his classmates chatted around the campfire, raising their beers to pour drinks for their new friends.
She hugged her knees and chatted happily with the person beside her. The fiery red flames of the campfire danced and reflected on her fair face, like some ancient totem, captivating and enchanting.
Suddenly, she stood up, raised her glass, and walked to the front of the crowd.
"For young!"
The crowd cheered, their eyes fixed on the person directly in front of them, chanting in unison, "For young!!!"
Han Yunxing set up her guitar, adjusted the height of the microphone in front of her, and lightly swept her fingertips across the screen. The flickering light and shadow fell on her curled eyelashes, and her red lips parted slightly, releasing a string of slightly husky and magnetic voices.
"Cut!"
After Han Yunxing left the field, she felt her brain slowly shutting down.
Fortunately, the director was very satisfied with the result and didn't need to reshoot the scene. He even came over to ask her, "Yunxing's singing was great. Can we add the original audio to this part?"
It was a part not mentioned in the contract. Shen Lina glanced at the person who was sitting obediently at the moment, waved for Han Mingyou to come over and watch her, and then went to the side to discuss it with the director.
"Yunxing, drinking this will help." Han Mingyou took out the hangover medicine he had prepared from his bag.
After finishing her drink, Han Yunxing whispered that she wanted to drink water.
Looking at her with concern, Han Mingyou was persuaded by her repeated requests for water. He turned to look at Shen Lina, who hadn't gone far, and went back to the lounge to get some water.
When he returned, Han Yunxing was nowhere to be found. Han Mingyou was so anxious that his eyes almost popped out of his head when he finally found her.
Han Yunxing ran to the standing microphone that hadn't been taken down and raised her arms, shouting, "Everybody! Jump! Jump!"
Before the extras had all left, they saw the main character come back on stage, and they all smiled and surrounded him again.
The entire venue is ready to transform into a joyful ocean of jumping and hopping.
A bright, slightly hoarse voice came through.
"Baby shark, rub-rub!"
Shen Lina immediately covered her face, but returned to normal expression the next second. However, her shoulders couldn't help but tremble slightly, while the director next to her grinned from ear to ear.
"Mama Shark, goo goo!"
"..."
The crisp sound echoed above the lawn, and the extras happily swayed their heads, accompanying Han Yunxing as he performed the children's song, playing both a shark mother and a shark grandfather.
As the medicine gradually took effect, the mist in Han Yunxing's eyes gradually faded as she sang, replaced by speechlessness and shame towards herself.
She pretended to still be drunk and swayed her body as she naturally began to sing other songs.
As the sun dipped below the horizon, the orange glow of the setting sun painted the lawn with bright colors. Han Yunxing's face was a delicate honey color in the sunset, her eyes sparkling with a hint of red at the corners. Her long hair swayed gently in the breeze, and her singing voice was cheerful and bright.
Subconsciously capturing the camera's view, after finishing the song, she picked up the beer beside her feet, brought it close to the lens, and quickly winked.
People around her were shouting for an encore, and Han Yoon-sung gave a special performance of BTOB and Jeon So-yeon's new songs from their recent comeback.
Happy wrap-up day!
Emerging from the reluctant crowd, Han Yunxing ran to Shen Lina's side and smiled.
With a down jacket draped over his shoulders by Shen Lina, Han Yunxing hugged her arm, and the cold finally broke through his bones.
She stomped her feet lightly a few times, then turned her head to listen to Shen Lina's conversation with the director.
"Thank you so much for giving Yunxing this opportunity to film."
Seeing Han Yunxing respectfully thanking him, the director chuckled and said, "It's a pleasure working with you."
Then she added, "It would be interesting to use that clip as a behind-the-scenes story."
Shen Lina nodded with a hearty laugh.
After saying goodbye to the people present, Shen Lina looked amusedly at the dejected Han Yunxing and Han Mingyou, who was watching her closely.
I want to improve my alcohol tolerance!
Han Yunxing raised her head, her eyes shining with determination.
She'd said that countless times, and Shen Lina cheered her on indifferently from the sidelines.
As soon as the promotional materials for the alcoholic beverage were released, fans replayed Han Yunxing's highlights countless times.
Especially the part where they sing the shark song.
Han Yunxing, blushing as she sings "Dulu Dulu," is the cutest!
btob and Jeon So-yeon even sent Han Yoon-sung a thank-you text message, because thanks to Han Yoon-sung, their song's listenership rankings improved.
To express their gratitude, the group pooled their money and brought several cases of Haite beer to Han Yunxing's office.
Han Yunxing: ? ? ?
Lu Xingcai caught the reluctant Han Yunxing and forced her to take a photo together as part of the gift exchange ceremony.
Seeing Lu Xingcai's SNS posts made fans laugh so hard they almost fainted. Cube, are all your artists this funny?!
