After the "accidental encounter" at the convenience store, Kim Heechul finally remembered Jung Eunlin's name.

On the mission panel, his favorability towards Zheng Enlin was no longer in the pitiful single digits.

If this world can be compared to an RPG mode Paper Man strategy game, Zheng Enlin has now officially unlocked Jin Heechul's character panel.

At the same time, because of Jin’s childish personality that was unwilling to admit defeat, he still took the initiative to exchange contact information with Zheng Enlin, and would send messages and emoticons from time to time to “harass” her.

As a prospective trainee of SM, although Zheng Enlin is not as busy as many senior artists, she still has tasks that she must complete, such as practice and assessment in the company, various assignments assigned by school teachers, etc.

Kim Heechul's behavior is more casual, and the frequency of messages sent to Zheng Enlin is not fixed at all.

Sometimes she would send more than a dozen messages at once, and sometimes she would remain silent for several days or even a week or two. No matter what he did, Zheng Enlin always maintained the polite attitude that a younger generation should have. When Jin Heechul sent a message, she Take the time to reply. In addition, you will never take the initiative to find topics, let alone wonder what Jin Heechul is doing now or what he did before.

From the first day of exchanging contact information to now, the chat history between Zheng Enlin and Jin Heechul can be scrolled down for a while. However, as long as you look carefully, you will find that there is not much nutritious content in it, and most of it is still covered by different content. Style emoticons firmly dominate.

"Ah, it's really..."

After once again ending an exchange that didn't last long because of Zheng Enlin's discretion, Jin Heechul scratched his hair in annoyance.

It's not that he hates her, or that she likes her. The girl just showed the etiquette that a junior trainee should show, but it always made him feel an indescribable feeling of depression, like a punch on cotton.

"Mo, am I such an unattractive man now?"

Jin Heechul put down his phone and looked at himself in the makeup mirror in front of him. Because he was going to appear on a variety show later, Cody helped him match fashionable clothes and put on appropriate makeup.

The man looked left and right, but didn't find anything particularly wrong. He frowned and called out to his brother sitting on the other side.

"Kyuhyun, Cho Kyuhyun."

"What's wrong, brother?"

Jo Kyuhyun, who was playing with his phone on the sofa in the corner, suddenly raised his head.

"Brother, are you handsome recently?"

"ah?"

"Do you think I'm handsome recently? I haven't become ugly or fat, right?"

"No..." Cho Kyuhyun scratched his hair with a confused look on his face, "Isn't hyung always handsome...?"

"Mo, brother Xiche, is there ever a time when we don't look good?" The prodigy, who had also put on makeup, directly moved a stool and sat next to Jin Xiche, "Brother, is there something wrong?"

Jin Xiche glanced at him sideways.

"Don't you have a girlfriend? Or someone you are having an affair with?"

As soon as the prodigy said this, the entire dressing room door immediately became lively. The other members of SJ, no matter what they were doing at the moment, all joined in the exchange excitedly.

"Mo? Are you in love? Brother Xiche is in love again?"

"How long did it take to separate last time..."

"Who was that last time? A female idol?"

"Mo, isn't she a female cody from JYP..."

"Ah! What nonsense are you talking about?" After a few minutes, Jin Xiche, as the real owner, could no longer listen. "If you can't speak, do you want me to get a needle and sew your mouth shut?"

Jin has a lot of power within the group. When he opened his mouth, the others immediately fell silent.

However, just looking at their expressions, they obviously didn't take Jin Heechul's threatening denial to heart.

After all, this brother has never been gentle to them as teammates.

Shindong, who moved his stool away from the center of the fire, exchanged glances with the other brothers. After that, regardless of Kim Heechul's foul-looking expression, the members entered the chat room in kakaotalk without Kim Heechul in a tacit understanding and began to passionately guess the duration of this new relationship. Door.

As a person involved in the incident, Jin Heechul had no idea what the other members in the same room were doing. However, at the SM building, which was an obvious distance away from them, Zheng Enlin knew all the details through the initiative of the small system.

"To be honest, host, I think Jin Xiche looks like the person in the novel."

"People in novels?"

"He's the kind of domineering CEO who's rich, good-looking, and cool. You see, you haven't paid much attention to him these days, and he's not happy." At this point, the little system even imitated it affectionately. A classic line from the ancient tyrant.

"Woman, how dare you ignore me? Woman, you have successfully attracted my attention!"

It has to be said that the guide system is still very talented at imitating other people's tone. However, after the funny imitation, its tone dropped for a moment.

"But why does your favorability increase so slowly? The target of your attack has obviously shown that he cares about you."

Whether it was a sense of wonder or a desire to conquer, no matter what, Jin Heechul was somewhat attracted to Zheng Enlin.

However, unlike the unsolicited messages and the irritability and entanglement seen by the system, the results are clearly displayed on the task panel, thirteen points of favorability, from the convenience store meeting to now, it is not a short period of time, and there is an online Based on the interactive communication, it only increased by two points, which can be said to be quite stingy.

"Well, he is a domineering president after all." Zheng Enlin responded in a naughty tone, without any uneasiness on her face.

In fact, she did not regard this as a big problem that was difficult to solve.

Why did Kim Heechul behave like this? Or, to put it further, why did he pay attention to Zheng Enlin and why did he take the initiative to give out his contact information?

If someone puts a similar question in front of Zheng Enlin, she will answer: because of doubt and curiosity.

There is no doubt that Jin Heechul is a maverick enough. Ever since he debuted several years ago, he has had this perverse and wanton style that can be said to go his own way.

However, being willful or even arrogant does not mean that he is stupid. On the contrary, he is very smart.

Whether before or after his debut, Kim Heechul has a clear set of self-aware standards - standards for how to treat others.

After almost seven years of ups and downs in the entertainment industry, it is impossible to say that my attitude towards people and things has not changed at all. However, no matter how the superficial things change, the core remains fixed.

For Jin Heechul now, many times, when he meets someone for the first time, he can roughly understand what kind of person the other person is and what purpose he has in approaching him and talking to him.

It's not that Kim Heechul has never encountered girls with a personality like Zheng Enlin's, but they are rare.

He wanted to know if Zheng Enlin's true character was what she showed at the beginning. He was also curious whether the girl could stay true to her original intention and remain true to herself when the challenges and temptations from the outside world gradually increased.

The famous German writer and philosopher Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche once said: When you stare into the abyss, the abyss also stares into you.

It is true that dark and negative things will always affect a person, but who can say that the plain and warm parts do not have the power to corrode the heart?

When you observe for a long time, you will pay more attention to it.

When you unconsciously spend more and more time and energy, how can you ensure that you can always be a rational and indifferent bystander?

Three or four o'clock in the afternoon is the ambiguous moment between the hot noon and the dim evening.

The young girl wearing thin training clothes stood by the slightly open window, holding her hands and letting out a sigh.

There are little sweat stains left on the forehead, and the face is as clean as the melting snow in spring, like a pink rose that has absorbed enough water vapor, green and beautiful.

when you gaze at the abyss, the abyss is also staring at you

When you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares into you.

The warrior who breaks into the castle with a sharp sword in hand will never find the beautiful and harmless princess waiting to be rescued——

He is also a greedy dragon that devours the love of others.

…

At one o'clock in the afternoon, the popular Inkigayo stage will be live.

After the pre-recording was completed perfectly, since there were still more than three hours of rest time, the super and junior members returned to the backstage and chose to do what they wanted to do.

Jin Heechul took his manager's car back to his residence to feed the cat. After feeding the cat, Jin suddenly received a call from Zheng Xiujing, saying that f(x) was currently recording a group variety show in the company building and asked if he could come over and make a guest appearance.

The residence is not far from the SM building. Kim Hee-cheol has a character that dotes on his sister. After readily agreeing on the phone, he hugged the cat Xibeom and set off.

Because Inkigayo still had a follow-up stage recording and an award ceremony, Kim Heechul made arrangements with f(x)'s manager in advance, briefly showed his face in the group show, and then left the practice room with the cat in his arms.

One person and one cat came to the stairwell door and prepared to take the elevator. The blue sky and white clouds practice room where f(x) was located was located on the 19th floor of the company. Jin Heechul held the cat and took the elevator down. On the way, the elevator stopped at the 12th floor, and the elevator door opened. , but there was no one outside, and Jin Xiche didn’t think much about it, guessing who had pressed the elevator button before but didn’t want to take it anymore.

He was about to press the off button, and the blue cat that had been hiding in his arms suddenly jumped out, and then swooped out of the elevator.

Jin Xiche was stunned for a second, then cursed and followed. The little cat was agile and ran through the training rooms with the doors either on or off. Finally, he tilted his head and selected the innermost door.

When Jin Xiche quickly followed his vision and found her, the cat Xi Fan was already lying on the ground obediently, staring at the dancing girl not far away with his round green eyes.

"sorry,sorry,sorry,sorry,

It's me, it's me, it's me, first of all

Attracted, attracted, attracted by you, attracted by you, baby..."

The overly familiar lyrics and melody stopped Jin Heechul from swearing.

The door to the practice room was completely open. It was not lunch time at this time, but for some reason, there was only one person in the practice room.

At the same time, maybe because there was no one else present, the girl let herself go and danced "sorry sorry" with great devotion. She laughed while dancing, her smile was too bright, and she looked a little inexplicably happy.

"Puff", Jin Xiche burst out laughing.

The place where he was standing was the blind spot of the girl's vision. When a burst of laughter came unexpectedly from behind, the girl was obviously frightened.

And the conditioned reflex has improved the Chinese language.

"Um?"

Because the group has many Chinese fans and he himself likes China, as soon as Zheng Enlin said this sentence in Chinese, Jin Heechul immediately reacted.

"Oh, it turns out you are not a Korean trainee."

"Hello, senior."
