Chapter 4 Why Take the Initiative to Talk to Her 8/13
After leaving the nightclub, Anru and Yamada Yusuke were dragged to a karaoke bar by Yamada Yusuke.
In 2009, Yamada Yusuke was still a university student. Today was the weekend, and he had to go to school tomorrow. He had a heavy workload, and he finally got a break. He dragged Anru Feng to sing until the early hours of the morning before taking Anru Feng home.
It had been a long time since I'd stayed up until the early hours of the morning. While waiting for the elevator, Anru Feng was incredibly sleepy.
An Rufeng was born in 1993 and was 16 years old in 2009, but that was in her original timeline. When she traveled to the parallel universe, An Rufeng was roughly equivalent to being 26 years old in the parallel universe.
Luckily, she's a 26-year-old adult who traveled from 2019, so she doesn't have to study and can sleep in tomorrow.
Thanks to the God of Time and Space, her age, identity, state, and social connections remained roughly the same as in 2019 whenever she traveled through different time periods. Otherwise, she would have been very angry every time she traveled through time to read a book, start a new career, or make new friends.
An Rufeng was so sleepy that her mind was wandering when her phone suddenly rang, startling her awake.
"What is it?" An Rufeng answered the phone.
"Your birthday? It's bound to be another business party, so boring, I don't want to go. I'll give you a present." The person opposite was Kenichi Hirayama, a famous painter friend of Anru Feng.
Because of his fame, his birthday celebrations are always very grand.
"Of course I have something to do. I'm going to paint and sketch in the countryside with my new friend Narami. It's much more interesting than going to your party."
"You want to change the format of the birthday party? This is so sudden, it's like you're just coming up with something on a whim. What kind of party will it be?"
"Invite friends, host salons, and appreciate your treasured paintings..."
"There's also a live painting session? I wonder if Narami would like to go."
"Give you a painting as a gift? You wish! So many painters would paint for you, you'd suddenly have a huge collection." An Rufeng saw through his little scheme.
“I won’t give you the painting I made on the spot. The gift I give you is also a painting. If you get two of my paintings at once, it makes it seem like my paintings are easy to collect. What if they depreciate in value?” An Rufeng joked.
"Okay, this event is quite interesting, I'll go." An Rufeng promised him and then hung up the phone.
Because she was afraid of not being able to answer the phone due to lack of signal, An Rufeng missed an elevator.
The elevator hadn't arrived yet, and An Rufeng waited while fiddling with her phone.
"Miss An." Suddenly, a slightly familiar voice rang out beside An Rufeng.
An Rufeng looked in the direction of the voice and realized it sounded familiar; it was Quan Zhilong.
An Rufeng was surprised that Da Cheng's captain was here. Did Big Bang live in the same building as her? If so, it would be very convenient to find Da Cheng in the future.
"Captain." Suppressing her thoughts, An Rufeng politely responded to Quan Zhilong, then turned her gaze away and sent a message to her friend.
As far as she was concerned, Kwon Ji-yong was no longer someone she needed to get to know, so he was just the leader of Daesung, and there was no need for them to talk much except about Daesung's album.
Kwon Ji-yong glanced at the color of the phone she was holding; it was different from the phone with his number saved in it, and then said nothing more.
A silent atmosphere filled the corridor.
Kwon Ji-yong's assistant felt a little awkward and strange seeing the silent atmosphere between the two.
When the incident happened at the nightclub, he went to find out the details and learned that Ms. An had invested a large sum of money in Dacheng.
He recalled how the three of them had seemed to be having a pleasant conversation at the nightclub, but now that Brother Zhilong and Miss An had met again, they were so distant and cold. After a brief greeting, the two didn't even exchange pleasantries.
The elevator arrived shortly afterward.
An Rufeng went in first and pressed her floor number.
Kwon Ji-yong and his assistant then entered.
The assistant was unsure whether to press the correct floor number. He glanced at Kwon Ji-yong, and only after Kwon Ji-yong nodded did he reach out and press the floor number they were on.
An Rufeng was engrossed in chatting with her friends, oblivious to their actions, and even if she had known, she wouldn't have cared.
She got off the elevator before them, and when she got off, she only nodded slightly to Quan Zhilong before walking out without saying goodbye.
After the elevator doors closed, the assistant couldn't help but speak up: "Brother Zhilong, didn't Miss An want to sponsor Brother Dacheng? Why aren't you talking? You two seem like you don't know each other well?"
Kwon Ji-yong glanced at him upon hearing this, but did not reply.
Can't you tell that the other person doesn't want to talk much?
Quan Zhilong pursed his lips. The other party's attitude was neither warm nor cold. Why should he take the initiative to talk to her?
Seeing that Kwon Ji-yong didn't want to talk, the assistant stopped asking.
The promotional activities for their new song are just wrapping things up; Big Bang has been relatively free lately.
"Jiyong, you're off tomorrow. Do you want to join me for a salon event?" After finishing his work that evening and washing up, Tap asked Kwon Jiyong, who was sitting on the sofa chatting on his phone.
salon?
Kwon Ji-yong was taken aback upon hearing this, and subconsciously looked up, asking, "About painting?"
Tap nodded, then asked curiously, "How did you know?"
“Don’t you like drawing, hyung? It’s easy for me to come up with ideas,” Kwon Ji-yong said with a smile.
Without giving it much thought, Tap asked, "Are you going or not?"
Kwon Ji-yong didn't answer, but casually asked, "Does hyung know what specific activities the salon has?"
"It's the salon owner's birthday, so there will probably be a celebration, and then we'll take out all his treasured paintings to admire together. I heard they're rare to see..." Tape gets excited and can't stop talking about his favorite paintings.
"Are there any more painting activities?" Kwon Ji-yong asked casually.
Tapu was surprised again: "How did you know?"
How did he know? He heard it with his own ears.
Kwon Ji-yong replied to Tae-bo, "Just a guess."
Tapu spoke for a long time without getting a reply, and impatiently asked, "Are you going or not?"
A note from the author:
----------------------
The female protagonist was born in 1993, which would have made her 16 years old in 2009 in her original timeline. She has now transmigrated to a parallel universe, essentially being a transmigrator in 2019 at the age of 26. Some details will be revealed gradually throughout the story. As for the logic, please disregard it!
