In early April, NCT DREAM returned to Seoul after completing their trip in Macau, China.

The group has no other schedules in the past few days. Zhong Chenle, who likes to go shopping, invited Mark Lee and Lee Donghyun to go out together.

Park Zhisheng actually received the invitation, but after hesitating for a while, he still found an excuse to stay in the dormitory.

After Zhong Chenle and others went out, he put on a hat and a mask and went to the company alone.

Today is a working day. Except for some people who have to go to school to make up for their credits, most of the trainees are practicing step by step in the company building.

When Park Zhisheng arrived at the high-level practice room with ease, Zheng Enlin, who happened to be taking a break, was sitting with a circle of little sisters around her for a sisters' tea party, talking about how she got into the company in the first place.

S.M has always been known as the flower field of Korean entertainment. Most of the female trainees who can be recruited by S.M company have superior looks.

Now, these beautiful girls with their own characteristics are gathered together, with no packaged appearance, pure natural beauty.

Park Zhisheng stood hesitantly at the door. He could see Zheng Enlin sitting at the back at a glance.

Even in such a situation, the girl is still outstandingly beautiful.

There were many people sitting around her, including faces that were familiar to Park Zhisheng and others that were completely unfamiliar to him.

The only thing that hasn't changed from before is that Zheng Enlin is still the star and the center of attention.

There are always many people around her, all kinds of people.

Park Ji-sung understands this because he is one of them.

Although he understood, standing at the door of the practice room and watching this scene at this moment, Park Ji-sung still felt an indescribable sourness and lowness in his heart.

He suddenly remembered his experience when he first joined the company. They said that there are all kinds of birds in the forest. S.M is a big company, and there are naturally countless trainees under it. Of course, some of them have bad personalities and bully them because of their age and long training time.

People who isolate junior trainees.

Park Ji-sung was still very young at that time, a complete kid, but he was announced as ROOKIES just a few months after he joined the company. When he usually took vocal music and dance classes, because he looked cute and was the maknae, he was in charge of teaching

The teacher always likes to tease him, and he is gentle in his words and deeds. In the eyes of some people who are already good-looking and love to put on airs, he is naturally very unhappy.

There are many ways for veterans to bully newcomers. Park Zhisheng is introverted and simple. At the beginning, he didn't even realize that he was being bullied.

When the other party's methods became more and more serious, and his daily words began to pierce people's hearts and lungs in strange ways, Park Zhisheng couldn't stand it anymore.

But he didn't dare to resist, let alone how to resist. Every time he felt sad or wronged, he would hide alone and cry secretly.

After being released as ROOKIES and successfully debuting as a member of NCT DREAM, Park Ji Sung has gained the love of many fans.

They would always praise him, look at him with warm and friendly eyes, cheer him on and support him.

Many times, from the time he first debuted until now, Park Ji-sung actually feels unreal.

He always felt that the beloved Park Ji-sung in the eyes of his fans was not him. Just like when he was in kindergarten and elementary school, the boys in his class all disliked him for looking too delicate and like a girl. He was introverted and didn't like to talk, and others didn't like him either.

Be friends with him.

Later, when he joined S.M., he was surrounded by brothers and sisters who were older than him. Park Ji-sung couldn't make good friends of his own age. He was isolated and bullied by his seniors and didn't know who he could talk to.

Thinking about it seriously, these are not pleasant experiences, but Park Ji-sung feels that this is true.

Not dazzling, not outstanding, introverted, clumsy, like a gray ugly duckling who tries very hard to fit into the group but always fails.

He actually had deep doubts about whether he could become a white swan.

"Oh, Zhisheng."

Zheng Enlin, who was sitting at the back of the practice room, saw him and stood up immediately.

At this moment, Park Ji-sung attracted the attention of all the female trainees in the training room, because he had already debuted and was considered a senior artist. Except for Go Eun and a few people who were already very familiar with him, the other girls bowed politely and said hello, even if Park Ji-sung was older than

They are all small.

After slowly walking into the practice room, Park Zhisheng felt uncomfortable all over.

He bowed back politely, and unconsciously picked up the corner of his clothes with one hand. Zheng Enlin walked up to him, looked at him, and smiled.

"Mo, are you so nervous? Come on, let's go out and chat."

Miraculously, the moment Zheng Enlin opened her mouth to speak, Park Zhisheng suddenly became less nervous.

He held his hands and followed Zheng Enlin obediently. The two came to the stairwell at the corner of the floor and started chatting naturally.

It was said that they were chatting, but Zheng Enlin was mainly talking alone. Park Zhisheng sometimes despised him. He obviously wanted to see Zheng Enlin and tell the girl about his current situation, but when they actually met, he was clumsy and didn't say much.

Many things are boring.

From Zheng Enlin's perspective, the young man stood obediently and listened to her words. The two people's eyes converged in mid-air. Once they stared at each other for a long time, Park Zhisheng's eyes would appear inexplicably evasive, and a layer of shyness would also appear in his ears.

of powder.

Just like a shy mimosa, when her eyes meet occasionally, she will respond to her with a lovely smile like a sunflower.

Due to his appearance and temperament, Park Ji-sung looks like the kind of little puppy that is easy to bully. This innocent and harmless feeling will become more obvious in front of Zheng Enlin, making the battle-hardened devil unable to help but remain silent.

Feeling emotional——

So pure.

The rest time was always over, and it was estimated that it was almost time to go back to the practice room. Zheng Enlin put her hands in her pockets, walked a few steps outside, then turned around and waved to Park Zhisheng.

"Let's go."

Park Zhisheng nodded subconsciously, and followed her example and stretched out his hand to wave. The girl's smile suddenly appeared in his field of vision.

——"I am Zheng Enlin, what is your name?"

——"Zhisheng...my name is Park Jisheng..."

When did those dusty, unpleasant pasts start to change?

Park Zhisheng stood there, watching the girl's figure gradually disappear from his sight.

I remembered.

It started when I met Zheng Enlin.

Before Zheng Enlin appeared, those were not memories worth remembering.

However, because he got to know Zheng Enlin, all the unpleasant past seemed to have become some kind of foreshadowing, a golden key to a bright future, and suddenly had a meaning worth cherishing.

It was because of Zheng Enlin that he was able to meet Li Dinu, Mark Li and others.

It was because of Zheng Enlin that he truly experienced the feeling of being cared for and favored by the people around him.

——"Senior, this is wrong."

——"Why should you be afraid? They can't bully me, and they can't bully you anymore."

Park Ji-sung began to like those past moments, those moments that became better because of Zheng Enlin.

It is moments like this, minutes and seconds like this, that make ordinary and ordinary daily life sparkle.

This ugly duckling gradually gained the confidence to become a white swan.

——"Brother Zaimin, why don't you like Enlin Nuna?"

--"you like her?"

--"Yes, I like it."

Zheng Enlin is different to him.

For Park Ji-sung, she is the only, the special, and the first.

Just like a person who is always walking in the dark and suddenly finds a light on the roadside.

It's like a person who is alone in a world of ice and snow, and suddenly sees the owner of the cabin opening the door not far away and actively choosing to accept him.

Just like...a child who spends every birthday alone, suddenly gets his favorite fruit cake on his birthday.

It is comfort, surprise, acceptance and companionship.

For Zheng Eunlin to Park Jisung——

That's how it exists.

After putting on a mask and walking to the company gate, Park Zhisheng called Zhong Chenle and said he was going to meet them now.

"Okay, we just finished watching the movie, and now we're going to go shopping in Myeongdong." Zhong Chenle said enthusiastically, and then suddenly asked: "Zhisheng, are you not in the dormitory now? Did you go somewhere to play?"

"Eh?" Park Zhisheng was a little surprised and felt a little guilty for no reason, "Why did you say that suddenly?"

"I feel like you're in a good mood, it sounds like."

"Ah..." Standing on the busy road, Park Zhisheng held up his mobile phone in one hand and smiled and rolled his eyes.

"yes."

The young man said this.

"I'm very happy now."

…

April 23rd was Zheng Enlin’s 17th birthday. She received a lot of gifts from the friends around her. Seven people from Mark Li also specially prepared birthday gifts for him. What Luo Zaimin gave him was the ice and snow park theme doll that Zheng Enlin had longed for.

Her and Li Dinu's birthdays were on the same day. When the boy came to the company building with a gift bag to look for her, Zheng Enlin took the opportunity to take out the gift he had prepared and handed it to Li Dinu.
