Peninsula Asteroid

After the apology, the entire balcony fell into silence.

The night was deep and completely silent, except for the distant noise that seemed extremely harsh.

Neither of them said a word.

Zhou Ziyu stared blankly ahead. She was in a mess. After being pointed out by Mingjing Nan, some of the confidence and persistence in her heart became weak... But she was also thinking about Mingjing unconsciously. What Nan said.

And Naijing Nan was also quietly observing this annoying maknae, and was a little worried that he might have gone too far.

Putting aside the emotional conflicts and competitions, she actually likes this maknae... In fact, she wants to comfort Zhou Ziyu, but if she does this from her standpoint, no matter how sincere she is, it will always make people feel... A sense of ridicule of being a good person despite being cheap.

"Tzuyu...I'm going out first."

After a moment of silence, Ming Jingnan pursed her lips and took the initiative to break the silence. She patted Zhou Ziyu's back gently, exhaled slightly, turned and walked out of the balcony.

After walking out, she saw that Zhou Ziyu had no intention of moving, and seemed to want to be alone for a while, so she closed the glass door again and covered the curtains to block the sound, and immediately looked over curiously. Minatozaki Saka and several others looked at her.

"how's it going?"

Seeing Nai Minami come out, several people who were originally discussing something immediately looked over. Minatozaki Saka was still very anxious, and asked in a low voice before anyone came closer.

Although Twcie's dormitory is quite old and the floors are not high, it still has its advantages. At least the sound insulation of the balcony is quite reassuring.

"Ziyu is still in there?"

"Um."

"how's it going?"

"...It's okay, it's nothing."

He walked to sit down among the three of them. Facing the questions and worries of several little sisters, Mingjing Nan just shook his head and replied softly without going into details.

Several people glanced at each other and did not ask any more questions about the matter between Mingjing Nan and Zhou Ziyu. They all also had a look at things that involved robbing men or robbing men with members of the group. They all knew the truth. Not very suitable for leaking.

However, after observing Mingnan's expression, it seems that there was no real quarrel, and Mingnan himself said that it was okay, so it shouldn't be that serious. The few people felt a little relieved and stayed quiet for a while to give Mingnan some buffer. At that time, Hirai Momo, Minatozaki Sasha, Sun Chaeyoung and several others began to ask about the topic she had just mentioned before entering.

‘Why did the company suddenly change its attitude and not punish Mingjing Nan at all? ’

Some of them are really curious, and some of them are because it is closely related to them.

Ming Jingnan felt a little irritated and guilty after having a fight with Zhou Ziyu. She had lost her interest and didn't really want to talk about it anymore. However, her relatively soft character couldn't withstand a few people who kept asking her questions. She had no choice but to Next, he continued his explanation in a low voice.

When she said, "Originally, she was scolded by Kim Sang-min so badly that she was ordered to break up and her phone was taken away, but after she revealed that her boyfriend was Ji Kyung-won, her attitude suddenly changed," the three people next to her said. The individual immediately couldn't hold himself any longer and exclaimed.

"qingjia? Just because he is your boyfriend, the company just ignores him? After going to the company, PDnim had nothing, and he treated you to a meal?" Hirai Momo's eyes widened, as if she had seen the third-rate dog she had seen before. The plot of the blood TV series reflects reality.

Is there any mistake? This is love, why is it so careless?

"Remember what I heard from my manager during the last family concert? Jingyuan Oppa's brother is a shareholder of our company. I heard that he has a lot of shares. Look at what the company had on the day he came to the concert last time. The attitude of the top management..."

Hearing this, Sun Caiying's eyes lit up, and she remembered some of the previous things and pressed it on Mingjing Nan, and she actually felt quite proud: "Furthermore, Jingyuan Oppa has a very good relationship with PDnim. Looking at it this way, it actually doesn't matter. It’s not difficult to understand…”

Finally, she was quite surprised to define the company's attitude this time: "In other words, as long as it is not exposed and let fans know, Mina Unnie's matter... the company will not care about it?"

"..."

Minatozaki Saka, who was curious to ask, suddenly fell silent after hearing this. She tried hard to manage her expression so that she looked natural, but her right hand inadvertently moved around the ear. Curly hair, a strange emotion arises in my heart for no reason.

Actually...is that so?

…………

"...No one is available at the moment."

After Mingjing Nan left, Zhou Ziyu stood alone on the balcony for a long time. First, he was confused and dazed for a while, and then stood in front of the window, looking out with dull eyes. Standing there, I didn't know what I was looking at.

And the tears that originally welled up in her red eyes were forced back by her.

After she calmed down a little, she remembered the culprit who caused today's incident. She bit her lip and hesitated for a while, then took out her cell phone and called Chi Jingyuan.

She wanted to talk to him, wanted to ask what was going on, and wanted to know what he really thought. Even if she didn't have a position... she just wanted to ask!

I just called several times in a row but no one answered... Although he knew that Chi Jingyuan might be in trouble now, Zhou Ziyu couldn't help but feel even more disappointed.

The phone call was not connected, and there was no point in staying here any longer. She wiped her eyes, tidied up her appearance, and walked out of the balcony...

Fortunately, Mingjing Nan and the others outside were very considerate and did not ask any questions, leaving her enough face and space. Zhou Ziyu declined Minato Sachi who wanted to say something to her because she was worried about her, and returned to her room alone.

Sitting on the bed, with complicated thoughts, looking at her in the shadow and feeling sorry for herself.

"Ziyu, are you okay?"

While Zhou Ziyu was silently feeling sorry for herself, Kim Dahyun on the bed next to her had been observing her with concern. After watching for a long time, she finally couldn't help but whispered: "You and Mina just now... nothing happened?"

Although she is relatively quiet in private and her presence is not very high, Kim Dahyun is very clear about what happened in the group and the people around her, and she has her own calculations in her heart.

"Nothing..."

Awakened by the sound, Zhou Ziyu came back to her senses and forced a smile to the little sister in the dining group who was looking at her with concern, pursed her lips and shook her head: "I just asked Mina what happened..."

Seeing Zhou Ziyu forcing a smile as if nothing happened, but her short face was tight and her big eyes were lifeless, Kim Dahyun couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

This youngest member has this personality. She thinks she is very smart, but she will never get angry with others. When she encounters something, she will keep it in her heart, like a punching bag.

"..."

Kim Da Hyun was silent for a few seconds, as if she was thinking about what to say to comfort him. Then she looked at Zhou Ziyu, who had been in a daze again, and paused, and spoke again: "Ziyu...you and Jingyuan Oppa, how long have you known each other?"

"Huh?"

Zhou Ziyu, who was awakened again, screamed a little. When she heard this question, she recalled in her mind: "I came to the Peninsula at the end of 2012, and he and I...met in the beginning of 2013, so far..."

She carefully counted on her fingers: "One, two,...more than four years, almost five years."

"Yeah...it's been so long."

Kim Da Hyun nodded gently, and then looked Curious: "Has Jingyuan Oppa been dating for all these years?"

"Uh..." Zhou Ziyu paused for a second, and said a little embarrassedly: "It seems... yes."

"Is that so... But it's normal if it's Jingyuan Oppa..."

Kim Dahyun shook his head, as if he had learned something, and then tutted his lips and said casually: "But you have changed so many girlfriends, I don't know Mina... In fact, compared to girlfriends, I think your relationship with him is more special. After so long, the relationship is still so good, so close..."

Hearing this, Zhou Ziyu was stunned there.

It is true. From the time they met until now, I don't know how many girls have changed around Chi Jingyuan, and how many girlfriends he has dated, but it doesn't affect the closeness of the two at all.

Zhou Ziyu can also feel that Chi Jingyuan has a different attitude towards her.

For Chi Jingyuan, she is the special one.

But, no matter how special she is, she is still a sister-like role...and she doesn't want to be like this forever.

With Kim Da Hyun's guidance, Zhou Ziyu was not as depressed as before. The two of them started talking in low voices. After a while, Sun Caiying also came back. After chatting casually for a while, it was getting late. Everyone turned off the lights and prepared to rest. They had to get up early tomorrow morning to record the program in Busan.

It was just a short time after the lights were turned off. Zhou Ziyu was hugging her dog Xilu as usual, staring at the ceiling with her eyes open, but the mobile phone on the bedside suddenly vibrated.

She hurriedly took it and saw that it was indeed Chi Jingyuan who called back.

After observing the movements of the two roommates next to her, Zhou Ziyu arched her head and buried her whole body in the quilt. In the dark quilt, she answered the phone in the slightly dazzling light.

"Hoo...Hoo..."

As soon as the call was connected, a breathless voice sounded in the receiver, sounding very tired. Two seconds later, Chi Jingyuan's voice also came: "I was busy rehearsing and didn't look at my phone... What's the matter? You called so late, and you called so many people... What happened?"

His voice sounded very tired, and a little anxious.

Zhou Ziyu listened quietly, savoring the flavor in his tone, and her heart was slightly rippled. She didn't say those things directly, but lowered her voice and asked softly: "It's so late, are you still rehearsing?"

"Yes, I'm rehearsing the stage. The company specially made several new choreography for the award ceremony at the end of the year, which made it very troublesome... It's so annoying. I've been busy all day today, and I have to rush back from the crew to work overtime in the evening. It's still halftime now. I don't know when I can go back to sleep today. Damn, I'm so tired."

Listening to Chi Jingyuan's irritable and complaining voice on the phone, Zhou Ziyu felt very relieved.

Chi Jingyuan would never complain about this meaningless thing in front of his teammates, because it would do nothing except put pressure on others and make them unhappy... But he was not shy about complaining in front of Zhou Ziyu. He could say anything to her and complain about anyone.

And she was willing to listen.

But today, she had lost some of her usual interest.

After listening, Zhou Ziyu did not reply, and then Chi Jingyuan heard Chi Jingyuan's "What's wrong" questions several times. For some reason, Zhou Ziyu suddenly heard the concern in his originally anxious tone. Some want to cry.

She sniffed and said in a low, muffled voice: "Why...why didn't you tell me?"

"ah?"

Chi Jingyuan, who had asked several questions over there, suddenly heard her say this and didn't react: "What didn't I tell you?"

"It's...it's about you and Mina Ernie."

Chi Jingyuan was stunned when he heard Zhou Ziyu's low, choked question.

He just noticed something tonight because of Ming Jingnan's sudden text message. He called Park Jinying to report his relationship with Ming Jingnan. After that, he started to practice the group directly. He felt that even if others knew about it, he It will probably take a few days to wait... So he really doesn't know what happened on Twice's side, and has no idea about Park Jihyo's wonderful operations and what happened on Zhou Tzuyu's side.

Now being suddenly asked by this girl, Chi Jinyuan, who always prided himself on being witty, was a little stuck in his thinking.

...But this is Zhou Ziyu. He panics because he cares and cares. If it were someone else who didn't care at all, he would be able to make up a bunch of reasons in an instant without thinking, or just say a few words to prevaricate. , don’t care about the other person’s feelings at all.

"Um...you know everything?"

Quickly coming back to his senses, Chi Jingyuan's mind was racing, thinking about how to deal with it and how to explain it: "Well, it's not a big deal that needs to be announced to the world... I've never been in love before..."

"Liar..."

But he was interrupted before he finished speaking. Zhou Ziyu's low-pitched, dull, crying accusation came from the receiver: "It's just because you know that I... know that I like you... that's why you deliberately lied to me and didn't tell me. mine."

It’s still the same greasy Wanwan accent. The voice that was so enjoyable to listen to before seems to have lost its original sweetness. Together with the choking sounds mixed in, it has become weak, lost, and abnormal. sad.

The low cry that reached his ears made Chi Jingyuan's excuse come up in his mouth. He opened his mouth for a long time, but no words came out.

What Zhou Ziyu said was absolutely correct. He knew this and deliberately hid it from her.

The eloquent mouth that I used to have suddenly seemed to have no power at this time, and the experience of being confident that I could handle all situations seemed to have suddenly lost its effect.

Chi Jingyuan opened his mouth, but just exhaled and fell silent. He didn't say anything, just listened to the crying coming from the phone.

"Woo..."

The sobs in my ears were very soft and low, sounding muffled but extremely sad.

She just kept sobbing silently in bed, while Chi Jingyuan listened silently.

I don’t know how long it took. Zhou Ziyu over there seemed to be unwilling to disturb his roommates, or maybe he didn’t want to be so embarrassed in front of Chi Jingyuan. He sniffed and finally left a hoarse sentence:

"That's all for now."

Then he hung up the phone proactively.

SM Building, in front of the window of the corridor outside the EXO practice room, Chi Jingyuan is frowning and looking at the hung up mobile phone, with a very ugly expression.

He was already very tired today, and practicing so late already put him in a bad mood. Now something like this happened to Zhou Ziyu, which was really irritating.

It was fine, but why did everyone suddenly know about it?

It doesn’t matter if others know, but Zhou Ziyu can’t...

Assi.

He thought for a while, composed a text message and sent it to Mingjing Nan, wanting to know what was going on.

Mingjing Nan may not have slept yet, or he may have gotten up immediately after seeing his text message. Two minutes later, Chi Jingyuan received a reply from his girlfriend. After carefully browsing the relatively long message, He couldn't help but cursed directly:

"You must be sick..."

He never would have guessed that Park Jihyo saw his close contact with Minjing Nan at SBS in the afternoon, and was directly reported to the company by this person.

It didn't matter in front of me, I saw it when I saw it... But Chi Jingyuan never imagined that she could report directly to the company!

Don't talk about captain, no matter who you are, this kind of behavior is absolutely incomprehensible. Kim Junmyeon is also the captain. Not only is it impossible to snitch when a member is in love, but he will also take the initiative to help cover up if he encounters it. When the members were having sex on the balcony, he would show off.

No matter how much internal tensions there were in Girls' Generation, Kim Taeyeon never said she would report the members' privacy to the company.

No matter what her position or identity is, as long as she is an idol, her stance must be aligned with her teammates... This is no longer a matter of captain or not, it feels like this person's problem.

However... this kind of behavior should be very satisfactory to JYP, or Park Jin Young. From the company's standpoint, they just like this kind of leader.

Thinking of Zhou Ziyu's phone call just now, Chi Jingyuan was really speechless towards Park Jihyo, and he couldn't help but feel strong dissatisfaction in his heart... But it was impossible for him to deal with her because of this kind of thing, but after all, she was still a member of Twice , after all, it was just a small report, he was not so naive.

However, this resentment has already been planted.

…If people know about it, they will know that as long as Ming Jingnan doesn’t care, he doesn’t really care.

As for Zhou Ziyu…the young girl who is just beginning to fall in love is probably really sad.

Alas.

………………

After a night, Kim Sangmin didn’t mention Ming Jingnan’s love affair much the next day after meeting the members of Twice again. He just mentioned it lightly and then passed it over.

Regarding the news of Ming Jingnan and Chi Jingyuan’s love affair, it didn’t turn out to be as earth-shattering as other members expected. There were no means that made people linger in fear. Everything seemed so unnatural, but it seemed to be logical.

It happened in shock, but ended in peace.

If we talk about the changes brought about, in addition to Zhou Ziyu being a little unnatural when she was alone with Ming Jingnan, it also made many Twice members feel closer to Chi Jingyuan, and there were also some special feelings. After all, as the boyfriend of a member of the same group, it was actually okay to call him ‘brother-in-law’.

The most profound and direct impact of this incident is that Park Ji-hyo, as the captain, seems to have become special overnight.

Many other members seem to have not changed on the surface. Except for the obvious gap between Mingjing Nan and her, the others talk and laugh when they meet.

But if someone observes carefully, they always feel that there seems to be a layer of film between them, which seems vague but really exists.

For example, in the middle of the second day, Park Ji-hyo started a live broadcast in the lounge. Mingjing Nan glanced at it and took the initiative to walk away. Although Minatozaki Sana took the initiative to join the camera, it seemed awkward and unnatural.

But if Park Ji-hyo is not there, the other members will become harmonious again if they work together... Some sensitive members have noticed this.

It's just that personal feelings are always personal. Twice will continue to maintain itself. No matter what, they are now in a period of rapid growth. They still have to put aside all the trivial things and focus on work. Any sadness and pain, even embarrassment and estrangement, can be smoothed out by time and busy schedules.

The next morning, all Twice members flew to Busan to participate in the filming of "Running Man" for the second time after their debut.

The filming lasted for two days and one night, starting from Daegu and ending in Busan. At the beginning of the filming, they also met EXO's Do Kyung-soo. This brother and actor Cho Jung-seok also participated in the recording of "Running Man" to promote the movie "Brother", but it was the previous episode of Twice.

Because of the relationship between Mingjing Nan and Ji Jingyuan, Twice members now feel a little strange when they see EXO people, but after all, they are not too familiar with Do Kyung-soo, so they just greeted him and didn't mention this.

After a few days of travel, Zhou Ziyu has gradually accepted the current reality and calmed down a lot.

Although she cried very sadly on the phone that night, and finally didn't want to talk to Chi Jingyuan out of anger, and didn't contact him at all in the past few days... But in fact, after two days, she regretted it a little when she came back from Busan.

This little girl is like this. She has long been accustomed to the existence of that person in her world. She has never been really angry with Chi Jingyuan. Even if she encounters something bad, she will keep it in her heart and be angry.

Fortunately, tomorrow is the AAA awards ceremony.
