Chapter 213 Call Sister
At this time, Li Zhien had changed into the puppet costume she wore for the performance. At first glance from a distance, Jin Qixuan thought it was a dog standing up...
But when I got closer, I was touched by her cute face again.
The doll costume that IU chose for herself is a black and white Dalmatian one, with the ears sticking up on her head, which looks very cute with her silly expression.
"Where are Suzy and Inna?"
"They'll be here soon."
Jin Qixuan nodded, sat down beside her, and looked at the Swan Dance rehearsal on the stage.
The dancer is very tall and has good dancing posture.
But, it just doesn’t click.
She dances her own dance, and the accompaniment plays its own accompaniment, and the two do not interfere with each other...
After looking for a while, Lee Ji-eun gently bumped Kim Ki-hyeon with her shoulder.
"What's wrong?"
Jin Qixuan turned around and asked.
"I was a little nervous and my palms were sweating."
Jin Qixuan glanced at her palms wearing doll gloves and asked:
"Sweating, could it be due to the heat?"
"It's not the heat, it's the nervousness!"
As she spoke, Lee Ji-eun took off her hand and showed him her slightly wet palm.
Seeing this, Jin Qixuan looked puzzled and asked doubtfully, "A concert with 50,000 people can control the venue so well, why are you so nervous about a stage play with less than 500 people?"
"Stage drama is not my area of expertise. It's different. I'm afraid I won't be able to perform well."
"If you don't act well, you will be socially disgraced. I just saw quite a few reporters coming. You will definitely dominate the news tomorrow."
"ah!"
Lee Ji-eun was dissatisfied and hit Kim Ki-hyeon with her head several times.
"Stop it."
Although Jin Qixuan really wanted to hold her in his arms, the timing was not right.
"We've been preparing for more than a month. It's okay. Just bring out the state you had in yesterday's rehearsal and follow my rhythm. Come on, let's go through it again."
Lee Ji-eun nodded and followed Kim Ki-hyeon to the backstage. The two of them went through the plot from beginning to end again.
The plot went smoothly. There were two crying scenes but Jin Qixuan didn't let her cry. It was fine as long as the emotions were there.
If you cry too much, you won’t be able to cry during your performance.
After rehearsing the plot lines, Jin Qixuan put the script aside.
He looked around, and when there was no one around, he reached out and rubbed her face.
Lee Ji-eun groaned twice but did not resist, allowing Kim Ki-hyeon to rub her face.
"If the performance goes well, I'll give you some New Year's money as a reward."
"Hmm~"
Li Zhien responded sweetly, but soon reacted and said in a daze: "Huh? Shouldn't you send it to me?"
Jin Qixuan spread his hands like a bachelor: "I don't have any money."
“…”
Li Zhien thought about it, her eyes rolled around, and she said with a smile: "It's ok to give you New Year's money, but you have to call me sister."
“No.”
Jin Qixuan refused flatly, stood up, picked up the doll costume and prepared to change clothes.
"no!"
Li Zhien quickly hugged Jin Qixuan's arm and said in a gentle and persuasive way: "I am half a year older than you, so it's only natural for you to call me sister. What's more, you can get money for it!"
"Then you should call me Oppa first."
Jin Qixuan really couldn't bring himself to call Li Zhien "sister".
She is different from Jin Yarong. Jin Yarong is actually one year older than Jin Qixuan, and she takes care of Jin Qixuan in daily life, acting like a real sister.
But Lee Ji-eun looks young and is not tall, so especially when she dresses in a cute style, her age really doesn’t look that old.
Therefore, it was rather embarrassing for Jin Qixuan to call this girl, who looked much younger than him, "sister".
Therefore, Jin Qixuan thought that she was the same as him, so he wanted to make it difficult for her to speak by asking her to call him brother, so as to end the topic.
But unexpectedly, Kim Ki-hyeon didn't understand Lee Ji-eun at all.
In other words, I can't understand her way of thinking.
She called him "Oppa" very openly.
He really doesn't follow the ethical rules of the peninsula at all.
Jin Qixuan was simply silenced.
Seeing that Jin Qixuan didn't speak, Li Zhien blinked her big eyes and shouted three times:
"Oppa~Oppa~Oppa~"
These three calls of "Oppa" were sweeter than the last, which made Jin Qixuan's heart uneasy.
Then, Li Zhien blinked and said expectantly:
"Now, it's your turn to call me sister~"
"I didn't just say you were called Oppa, so I'm going to call you Sister."
"How dare you cheat?!"
Li Zhien grabbed the pompoms on both sides of the doll's headgear, and the "ears" that were originally on top of her head stood up instantly. With her almond-shaped eyes wide open, it can be seen that her anger was rushing up to her head.
Seeing this, Jin Qixuan took a small step back, pondered for a while, and said:
"You're so cute when you're angry."
“…”
Hearing this, Li Zhien's "ears" that were standing upright on her head drooped down, and her round eyes became curved.
After being defeated by Kim Ki-hyun's words, Lee Ji-eun couldn't hold on any longer, so she could only use her ultimate move.
Then, Li Zhien threw herself into Jin Qixuan's arms, raised her little face and said coquettishly: "Call me sister, just one time~"
Lee Ji-eun wants Kim Ki-hyeon to call her sister not because she has any special hobby.
The main purpose is to tame Jin Qixuan's desire to conquer, and on the other hand, it is to increase some sweetness between the couple.
Jin Qixuan tried to move two steps, but she clung to him like a sloth, as if saying, "I won't let go unless you yell."
Hearing footsteps and noise approaching the backstage waiting room, Jin Qixuan's heart tightened and he hurriedly said, "Stop making trouble, let go, someone is coming!"
"A little bit~"
Lee Ji-eun didn't say anything, but from her face with her tongue out, it can be seen that no matter what Jin Qixuan said, she would not let go.
Helpless, Jin Qixuan had to call out, "Sister."
“Please include your name.”
“Jie’en…sister…”
“Hee~”
Lee Ji-eun laughed triumphantly and let go of the hand that was holding Kim Ki-hyeon.
At this time, seeing other performers entering the waiting room, Lee Ji-eun's face became serious and she bowed and greeted them in a serious manner.
This person has two faces in front of others and behind their backs. What a great acting skill! Noticing that Jin Qixuan looked at her speechlessly, Li Zhien secretly made a face at him.
Seeing this, Jin Qixuan rolled his eyes at her, took the doll costume and went to the bathroom to change clothes.
The reason why I have to go to the bathroom to change clothes is because there is no changing room here.
I had just changed my clothes when I felt the urge to pee.
Helplessly, Jin Qixuan had to take off the doll costume again.
After lingering in the bathroom for nearly ten minutes, Lee Ji-eun called.
"Ah! You fell into the toilet? The show is about to start, come back soon, I'm nervous again!"
"No, it's too hard to take off these clothes, and there's not much space. I'll be right back."
"hurry up!"
After hanging up the phone, Jin Qixuan felt sweet in his heart. This feeling of being needed by her was pretty good.
Just as Jin Qixuan was washing his hands in front of the sink, a familiar male voice came from the toilet cubicle behind him.
"Stop rushing me. I can't even be left alone in the toilet. Isn't this the third show he's on?"
"Are you embarrassed to be alone, Juan? Oh... I know. I will definitely go back within five minutes."
As soon as the words fell, there was a rustling sound, followed by the sound of rapid flushing water.
A moment later, the toilet cubicle door behind Jin Qixuan opened.
Li Donghui put his hands in his pockets and walked out of the bathroom slowly.
Seeing him walking out blankly, Jin Qixuan subconsciously asked: "Why don't you wash your hands?"
"Um?"
Li Donghui paused, looked back mechanically, and laughed out loud instantly.
"Oh my, I didn't recognize you, not bad, you really can act like what you are acting!"
“…”
Li Donghui should be thankful that he is from the Peninsula. If he changed his nationality, he would definitely be beaten up by Jin Qixuan.
Jin Qixuan glared at him, shook off the water droplets on his hands unhappily, and said:
"Why are you here?"
Li Donghui chuckled: "I have seen musicals and stage plays, but I have never seen a children's play performed by Jin Qixuan. I came here to watch and learn from it."
Li Donghui's words sounded like he was gloating.
To some extent, it would be quite socially unfavorable for Jin Qixuan to appear in such a children's drama under this identity.
It's like a famous celebrity feeling socially devastated when he sees his dark history of appearing on a children's channel show when he was young.
But in Jin Qixuan's own opinion, performing for such charity events is still very meaningful.
What's more, I performed with my girlfriend.
This is much sweeter than just a date.
Regular couple dates: eating, watching movies, shopping, traveling.
Kim Ki-Hyun & Lee Ji-Eun's date: doing charity, donating, and performing for charity events.
The level of quality immediately came up.
And when this kind of thing gets out in the future, it will definitely be blessed by netizens who will "lock it up".
Thinking of this, Jin Qixuan suddenly reacted.
It turns out that the person I always thought was a little fool turned out to be such a good planner.
I was deceived by her sweet appearance.
Jin Qixuan suddenly felt that he seemed to understand Li Zhien less and less...
"What are you thinking about?"
Seeing Jin Qixuan suddenly stunned, Li Donghui pushed him and asked.
Jin Qixuan came back to his senses and shook his head:
"Ah...it's okay. Help me record the stage video later."
"Okay, I'll go back first. It's a bit awkward for Baojian to be alone with Haojuan."
"Um."
After coming out of the bathroom, Jin Qixuan returned to the waiting room.
At this time, Bae Suzy and Yoo Inna had already arrived and were chatting with the children with Lee Ji-eun.
Regarding Bae Suzy's performance costume, Kim Ki-hyeon was speechless.
It's not that it's ugly, it's that it's so beautiful.
Her outfit is a light green elf dress with a pair of wings on her back and a wreath on her head.
No matter how you look at her, she looks like a beauty who has broken through the dimensional wall.
"Who picked out her costume for the performance?"
"She herself, what's wrong with her not looking good?"
Lee Ji-eun glanced at the beautiful Bae Suzy and asked Kim Ki-hyeon in confusion.
"Don't you think she's too conspicuous? Who would watch our performance if she stood there?!"
Hearing this, Li Zhien turned around again and looked at Bae Suzy, nodded in agreement and said, "Hmm... that makes sense!"
As she spoke, Li Zhien raised her chin towards Pei Xiuzhi:
"Why don't you change back into your own clothes?"
Pei Xiuzhi shook her head and said calmly, "It's not about the clothes. If your performance is exciting enough, I will naturally be dull."
Jin Qixuan: “…”
What she said was indeed the truth, but it always made me feel a little uncomfortable listening to it.
It's like saying, if you can't get along with her, look for the reasons within yourself.
The game was organized by IU, and Bae Suzy is IU's friend.
She rejected his suggestion, and Jin Qixuan didn't know what to say.
If Park Bo Gum were to do this, Kim Ki-hyeon would kick him twice.
Soon, at exactly eight o'clock, the Spring Festival Gala of the Disabled Persons' Federation officially began.
The performances by the Disabled Persons’ Federation members certainly cannot be compared with normal programs.
However, most of the audience members are from the academy, and the rest are supporters of charity and relatives and friends of the actors.
Therefore, the audience still gave these "actors" warm applause for their performances.
Lee Dong-hui and Park Bo-gum who were watching from the audience did not feel bored at all, because when they remembered that Kim Ki-hyun would be performing soon, the originally boring show suddenly became interesting.
Because they were both looking forward to netizens seeing their idol's image shattered, since Jin Qixuan always showed off to them.
Kim Ki-hyun and Lee Ji-eun's "Stupid and Smart" is scheduled for the third program, which is at 8:30.
Soon, it was Kim Ki-hyeon and Lee Ji-eun's turn to perform on stage.
As the announcer's voice fell.
The red curtain on the stage trembled slightly and slowly opened to both sides.
Bright light shines out from the gap.
On the stage, the lush forest background slowly appeared before the audience.
At the same time, a soft female voice narrated slowly from the loudspeaker.
"Once upon a time, there was a little dog named Clumsy in the forest."
"It has been very stupid since it was little and can't do anything well. Other dogs in the forest bully it, and even its mother abandons it."
At the same time, a spotlight shone on the elf Bae Suzy in the corner.
At this moment, she had a sweet smile on her face and used sign language to translate Liu Inna's words to the deaf and mute audience.
Seeing this, Lee Dong-hui and Park Bo-gum looked at each other.
This configuration doesn't seem to be low...
After the narration ended, Lee Ji-eun, who played "Benben", appeared in a doll costume.
She picked up a can of food abandoned by humans in the woods, and when she was about to enjoy the food, three bad dogs (played by mentally retarded children) suddenly rushed out, beat her up, and snatched the can.
As she was licking her wounds silently under the tree, a beehive fell to the ground and landed in front of her.
Benben went forward to take a curious sniff, but was stung by the bees inside and got a big bump on his head.
Benben finally survived the bee's beating and was about to enjoy his delicious food when the three bad dogs showed up again and trampled the hive into pieces.
"Stupid dog, stupid dog, a dog that no mother wants, hahahaha..."
Seeing this, bursts of children's laughter rang out in the audience.
But the adults were unusually silent, as if a stone was pressing on their hearts.
And many disabled people who have had similar experiences have recalled the past that they could not bear to recall.
Just when Benben was feeling aggrieved and at a loss, "Congcong" played by Jin Qixuan appeared.
The spotlight on the stage was focused on Jin Qixuan's head and moved as he slowly moved his wheelchair.
Jin Qixuan raised his finger and pointed at Li Zhien, smiling contemptuously: "Still laughing! It was stung by just a little bit of honey and got stung all over its head. You have so much sting on your body, you are going to be in big trouble soon!"
The three little bad dogs on the stage were so scared that they ran away howling.
Jin Qixuan sneered, turned his wheelchair and prepared to leave.
At this time, Lee Ji-eun slowly got up from the ground, came behind Kim Ki-hyeon, and moved timidly with him.
Seeing this, Jin Qixuan looked at her with disdain: "Don't follow me."
"I...I want to follow you..."
As she spoke, Li Zhien lowered her head and whispered:
"You, be nice to me. No dog has ever been nice to me."
Hearing this, Jin Qixuan's heart tightened. He was silent for a moment, then asked slowly:
"May I have your name?"
"My name is Benben."
"Oh, that's pretty stupid."
Jin Qixuan turned his head and looked at Li Zhien, saying: "Then you call me "brother"."
Li Zhien's eyes lit up and she shouted, "Brother!"
Jin Qixuan smiled slightly and said, "Why are you standing there? Come home with 'brother'."
Lee Ji-eun nodded vigorously, then trotted forward, pushing the wheelchair with a happy smile on her face.
