21 Chapter 21
Faced with the hesitant looks of his relatives and friends, Quan Zhilong chose... to walk in sideways.
He didn't intend to explain anything to Soo-ha. Did he have to explain that Yoon-ji treated him like this because he rejected her?
When he came, he had anticipated the situation just now.
Originally, when Kwon Ji-yong received the message from Park Min-hee, he wanted to refuse, but at the moment of replying to the other party, he inexplicably changed his mind.
During this period, Lee Yoon-ji didn't have much contact with Kwon Ji-yong. Apart from thanking him after releasing the song, Yoon-ji didn't send him any more messages.
The last chat conversation was when Yunzhi asked Quan Zhilong to go out shopping with her.
Quan Zhilong was inexplicably not used to the current situation.
At this moment, he just thought that he had not been socializing enough recently, and subconsciously ignored his concern for Yunzhi in his heart.
Seeing Kwon Ji-yong go straight in, Li Zhuhe shrugged and followed him into the room.
It seems that Yunzhi was rejected by Zhilong.
A little unhappy.
Thinking of Yunzhi's listless look just now, Li Zhuhe felt even more annoyed with her friend.
…
"How are you planning to celebrate your birthday?"
When Lee Yun-ji heard Min-hee ask her how she had originally planned to celebrate her birthday, she gave an answer without much thought.
"I'm planning on going to Hyunjin-unnie's club later."
When he was speaking to the end, he saw Kwon Ji-yong and his uncle coming in one after another, so Li Yunzhi just lip-synced.
She actually figured out one thing.
That is, the time given for the strategy is so long.
The system didn't say at the time that the tasker could only develop a romantic relationship with the target. The system simply said that Yunzhi needed to fill the progress bar before the deadline.
This means that Li Yunzhi does not necessarily have to fight to the death with the target of the strategy in the remaining 1,376 days.
That's why she wanted to go to Hyunjin-unnie's place to relax.
However, Yunzhi still doesn’t understand her target!
"Don't go to the bar alone."
Even without hearing the second half of Li Yunzhi's words, Li Zhuhe guessed what the other party originally wanted to do based on her understanding of her niece.
"Arathor~"
Lee Yun-ji replied to Lee Soo-ha with a drawn-out tone, and at the same time gave Min-hee an eye that said 'Look, it's like this again'.
She knew that her uncle would definitely say something about her.
Sometimes, Lee Soo-ha is stricter with her than Ms. Lee Jae-min.
Yunzhi also understood that this was her uncle's concern for her, so she didn't object.
"I'll take you out to play next time." Park Min-hee comforted Yun-ji.
"I hope my unnie's boyfriend isn't angry." Yunzhi shook her head slightly, as if she was afraid that she would disturb my unnie and her boyfriend.
Park Min-hee's boyfriend, Lee Soo-ha, looked at Yun-ji who was acting weird and gave her a look to let her experience the situation herself.
"Then let's let Soo-ha and Ji-ryong keep each other company. What do you think, Yun-ji?"
Park Min-hee saw Yun-ji's attitude towards the other person, a smile flashed in her eyes, and she deliberately mentioned another person present.
Lee Yoon-ji is one of the few close sisters of Park Min-hee, so she is also concerned about her sister's recent relationship status.
"If my uncle (Sam Qion) and Agassi have no objection, then of course I can do it."
Except for the time when she first met Kwon Ji-yong through her uncle Lee Soo-ha, Lee Yun-ji called him Agassi, she rarely called him that.
Especially after Lee Yun-ji realized that she liked Kwon Ji-ryong, she never used this name again.
Because 'Agassi' always gave her a feeling of being of a different generation.
But today, Yunzhi really wanted to call the other person that.
As for why, there is no reason TAT
Without waiting for the others to react, Li Yunzhi stood up and took the cake from Li Zhuhe's hands. "Just put the gift on the cabinet next to you. Didn't you say you would celebrate my birthday with me?"
…
Since two of the four people were currently active artists, the cake was not touched much.
Most of the time, these people were chatting.
Lee Yoon-ji and her Min-hee unnie drank the soju she had just taken out.
At first, she took out the red wine that Ms. Lee Jae-min bought for her from abroad, but under the killing look of her uncle, Lee Yun-ji said that soju was also good.
The main attention was focused on chatting with Minxi unnie, and Lee Yunji didn't talk much with the other two.
Still affected by emotions.
Yunzhi hated feeling defeated like this.
Perhaps Minxi noticed the dullness in Yunzhi's smile, so she said goodbye to Yunzhi at the right time.
After sending them to the door, Li Yunzhi looked at Quan Zhilong who was walking at the end and suddenly said, "Brother, can you wait a moment before leaving?"
Kwon Ji-yong paused as he left, as if he was somewhat surprised by Yun-ji's action.
He thought he should have refused immediately. However, seeing a hint of tears in Yunzhi's eyes, Quan Zhilong began to wonder if his previous rejection of Yunzhi was a bit cruel.
He thought he should explain it clearly to Yunzhi.
Li Zhuhe looked back at the two people's actions and said nothing more.
He has already decided when to talk to his relatives and friends.
Park Min-hee was not surprised by Yoon-ji's actions, but was a little surprised by Lee Soo-ha's reaction.
This time, the boyfriend didn't pull his friend Quan Zhilong to leave.
Noticing his girlfriend's teasing look, Li Zhuhe simply put his arm around her shoulders and walked towards the elevator, ignoring the remaining two people.
Just now, only Min-hee and Yun-ji drank soju, so his friend just needs to remember that he is sober.
…
Seeing her uncle and Minxi leave, Yunzhi let go of the hand that was originally holding the other's clothes.
In fact, she planned to hold on to the person and not let go if the person in front of her rejected her.
Yunzhi was really curious about a question.
"You obviously like me, why do you reject me?"
Li Yunzhi's question was just a simple doubt. Her eyes were fixed on Quan Zhilong, as if she wanted to get an answer from his face.
This was the question she had wanted to ask ever since she learned about the progress of the strategy.
Strategy progress 80%.
I obviously like it.
Why?
With Kwon Ji-yong, Lee Yun-ji encountered the biggest setback in her love history.
Perhaps it was because all her previous relationships had gone smoothly, as long as Yunzhi liked the other person, the other person would eventually become Yunzhi's love interest.
Instead of getting this time, Yunzhi became obsessed with it.
Now she just wanted to know an answer. She didn't care if the answer would make her more frustrated.
Just one answer, she told herself.
"Does our Yunji really like me?"
Quan Zhilong met Yunzhi's gaze and suddenly asked.
