tus was extraordinary.Even the furious Byun Baekhyun right now can't tell.Both sides sat on either side of the practice room, quietly attending to their own affairs.The brawl was thus defused, and aft...Although there were some mistakes that seemed unprofessional, the organizers clearly understood the audience's psychology. Including the highest-ranking idol among those present, Girls' Generation TTS, who performed last, this year's Golden Disc Awards featured most performers with only one song stage. EXO had the longest performance time, besides Jin Jong-myun and Sun Seung-won, who collaborated on a duet. Besides that, in the second half of the ceremony, EXO consecutively performed "Let Out The Beast", "Overdose", followed by a special stage of "Growl", three consecutive performances lasting over ten minutes, making it feel like an EXO solo concert.

The three songs performed on stage were all in Chinese, directly pushing the atmosphere of the entire event to its peak. Especially when the familiar accompaniment of "Roar" started playing, the audience's surprised screams continued for a long time.

The 9-person version of "Roar" might have some differences in choreography and formation compared to the 12-person version, but its familiar prelude and melody still transported all fans back to the peak popularity of XO a couple of years ago. Everyone was instantly fired up by it.

It's obvious that the organizers did their research. They knew EXO was incredibly popular in China and specifically arranged things this way to receive the desired response and effect.

But the excitement generated by the just-lit atmosphere didn't last long. After EXO and Girls' Generation TTS's performances, the live event directly jumped into an advertising segment, with the large screen playing the trailer for Jackie Chan's upcoming film "The Lion Roars"

A two-minute movie trailer silenced the entire theater, even leading some in the audience and watching on television to think they were in the wrong place or had switched channels. It was baffling how a film trailer started playing during an awards ceremony, leaving many bewildered.

Jackie then took to the stage with a female actress and they sang the promotional song from the movie. Although the song wasn't very well-known, Jackie Chan's star power was undeniable and the audience gave them a lot of cheers and support.

After that, he chatted with a few people who came on stage for a while. He made some jokes and promoted his movie again. After chatting for a few minutes, the last award presenter finally took the stage. Jackie Chan and JTBCTV's president Hong Jung-do announced the winner of tonight's record department Grand Prize.

As expected, the Record Awards went to EXO, who dominated album sales.

But to be honest, the final promotional segment of the movie felt a bit out of place. It kind of disrupted the atmosphere of the awards ceremony and made things feel strange. When Ji-sung went on stage with the members to accept the award and give a speech, it was clear that most of them, including him, didn't seem very excited about winning this major prize. They came across as rather subdued.

Although the Golden Disc Awards is arguably the most prestigious award in the K-Pop industry, with Seoul Music Awards being a close second, other awards like , and it's unclear why that might be.

It can only be said that the atmosphere and foreshadowing are really important.

In addition to the previously dull and awkward red carpet segment, the clumsy Chinese translation and the ultimately disappointing film promotion segment, this year's Golden Disc Awards held here felt overall unsuccessful, even rather a failure.

Of course, winning the grand prize definitely makes me happy. After the encore stage ended, EXO bowed to the audience and said goodbye before returning backstage. At this time, after the ceremony ended, all the idol groups and award presenters were either packing up or chatting and laughing with familiar faces, looking very lively.

As soon as Ji-yeong entered, she saw Red Velvet's four members standing together in the corner of the resting room. Seulgi stood in the middle holding the rookie award trophy, and the group was all smiles as they looked at the camera lens held by their manager, posing for an award recognition photo.

Seeing them so happy like this, they probably aren't taking their first certification photo, right...

exo first removed their in-ear monitors and exchanged them with the staff. Kim Minjae, Park Chan-lyeol, and several other members saw their acquaintances walking by and chatted for a few words. Ji Chang-wook returned to his position and started packing up his things. After a while, Bae Joo-hyun and a few others finished taking the certification photos and began picking up their belongings at the nearby table.

"What are you planning to do next Just go back to the hotel and rest"

Putting some things on the table back into his single-shoulder bag, Ji Jingyuan didn't even raise his head and naturally walked over to Pei Zhuxuan beside him and asked.

This kind of new group is at the time when company management is most strict, and generally speaking, companies prohibit free activities during overseas trips.

"We'll head back to the hotel first to change our clothes. Our manager said he'll take us out to celebrate winning the newcomer award."

Although the indoor heating was on, in just a dress and single garment, she felt a bit cold. Bae Ju-hyun quickly picked up the down jacket from the table and wrapped it around herself. Then she turned to look at her, pursed her lips, hesitated for two seconds, and asked in a low voice: "Are you going"

"池景源 was taken aback for a moment, then turned his head and looked at 裴珠泫 with strange eyes, similar to how he looked at 吳世勳. He said in surprise: "You won a rookie award and you're not happy Your brain is broken You guys came to Debebe to celebrate me Are you here to get me to buy you drinks"

At the end, Ji Jingyuan's gaze rested on Pei Zhuxuan's bright forehead, watching her smack her lips, seeming a little worried for her: "It shouldn't be that bad..."

"Ah!" It was clear from his gaze that he had been humiliated. Bae Joo-hyeon, dissatisfied, swatted him and glanced around with the corner of her eye before quickly lowering her head and covering her mouth with a giggle, as if she realized her question had been silly.

Chi Jingyuan acted with a helpless shrug and shook his head, but he also smiled. He checked the contents of his shoulder bag to see if there was anything missing.

Just then, he felt a sudden tap on his left shoulder. He turned his head and saw Kim Taeyeon and Hwang Mi-young smiling at him. The tap had clearly been from Taeyeon.

The two sisters were bundled up in thick coats. One with black hair, cascading down her shoulders on one side, and the other with long, slightly wavy brown hair, both had striking features accentuated by delicate makeup.

"Senior, Annyeonghaseyo..." Bae Joo-hyun's greeting voice came from behind, sounding a little nervous. She wasn't like Ji-young, who was familiar with these two sisters and met them privately without much formality, even after debuting. In fact, despite her debut, she wasn't very close to many seniors at the company.

"Ye...," Jin Tae-yeon and the two laughed, nodding their heads at her as a greeting. Then they turned to look at Ji Kyeong-won, raising an eyebrow at him as an invitation: "Ji Kyeong-won, are you free tonight Let's go out together!"

"Tonight" Ji Jingyuan blinked.

"Yeah, it's not easy to come here, and I won't be back in Seoul until tomorrow. I'm free tonight, so why don't we go out and have some fun together"

Taeyeon nodded and waved her hand, looking very interested. Hwang Mi-young stood behind Taeyeon, her hands around Taeyeon's waist, also excitedly looking at Ji-seong: "And listening to Taeyeon, you seem pretty familiar with the area around Seoul, right You could lead us around and tell us which places are more interesting."

Seeing that these two sisters were so enthusiastic, Chi Jingyuan pondered for a moment.

This wasn't the first invitation to go out at night he had received. It seemed they knew he was quite familiar with Xia Guo. When he came off the stage and into the corridor just now, Jin Jong-in and some of the other members invited him to go for a stroll in the evening, but he had politely declined.

Although he didn't turn back at this time, Ji Jingyuan vaguely felt that from the moment Taeyeon asked her question, someone was staring at him unintentionally.

"Hmm..." Chi Jingyuan thought for a moment, still refusing. "I'm planning to head back to the hotel later and get some rest. I have an event to rehearse for early tomorrow morning. Maybe another time."

For the Golden Disc Awards, all of s company's artists were booked into the same hotel. However, EXO will not be returning to Seoul with the others tomorrow night because they have a performance at an event here.

"Oh, right, you guys have a performance tomorrow, too, don't you" Ji-yeong mentioned, and Kim Tae-yeon also remembered what they had talked about before. She and Hwang Mi-yeong looked at each other and didn't seem disappointed at all. Although a little regretful, they still smiled and said, "Then let's make plans to hang out again after you get back. But are there any fun places around here Give us some recommendations."

Chi Jingyuan also smiled and gave an 'OK' gesture: "I'll send it to you on my phone later."

“Call!” Kim Taeyeon also made a gesture and pulled Huang Meiying to prepare to leave.

Just taking a single step, she suddenly turned her head to glance this way. Her gaze swept over Ji Jingyuan and the person beside him, Pei Zhuxuan. Perhaps she sensed something, her expression was somewhat strange. However, after two glances, she didn't seem to find anything special. Finally, she raised an eyebrow at Ji Jingyuan, then the two of them walked away.

But these two people don't take Soohyun out to play either. The internal discord within Girls' Generation is confirmed.

Ji Jingyuan watched the two sisters leave, then turned back to zip up his packed bag. He glanced at Pei Zhuxuan beside him. The girl wasn't looking at his back anymore; she was pretending to fiddle with the makeup box on the table in front of her, as if she hadn't heard their conversation just now. At this moment, she was pursing her lips as if holding back a smile, studying the black lines on the makeup box and wondering where they led.

"Jingyuan, come here for the ID photo!" Chi Jingyuan was delighted in his heart. Just as he was about to say something, Bian Berhyen suddenly shouted his name from afar. Chi Jingyuan looked up and saw that EXO's members were there with Lee Seunghwan holding a camera, preparing to take pictures.

"I'm here," he quickly responded. Park Ji-won lastly tilted his head towards Bae Joo-hyun who turned to look at him, then turned around and briskly walked toward the members under her gaze.

After taking the picture, Red Velvet had already left. Ji Kyeong-won chatted with a few people he met for a while. According to Jung Eun-ji's tone, they also seemed to be planning to go out for a stroll in the evening and asked him for his opinion as well.

This group of people are truly something else, they go to Xia Guo for an event and act like wild bunnies unleashed. Whenever they have free time, they just start having a blast.

To be honest, Chi Jingyuan wasn't that familiar with the capital city. He had gone to school in Xia Guo before but not in this city. He only came here occasionally during vacations to stay for a while.

Among EXO, Han probably knows this place best since he's from here. He remembers that this guy is a native of Beijing and definitely knows the best places to go. When XO came to perform here before, he even took them to several local famous restaurants multiple times.

It's a shame, I don't know if he's still here now.

After chatting for a while, EXO took the bus back to the hotel. After changing their clothes, Park Chanyeol and a few others went out to have fun together. Meanwhile, Park Kyung stayed in the room watching TV but didn't actually look at it. He just listened to the sound of the variety show playing while lying on the bed and playing video games.

Wu Shixun, who shared a room with the others, also went out with the rest of the group. He was actually quite happy to have some peace and quiet on his own.

In the middle, Lee Seonghwan knocked on the door again to see if the members had come back. After seeing only Ji Kyeongwon inside, he smiled in surprise and helplessness, didn't say anything, and just left.

Even after midnight, no one else returned. Given the situation, it's likely they went to cb for drinks. In that case, they probably won't be back before two or three in the morning.

Although EXO's management has relaxed a bit now, they should have reported to their manager before going out. However, they had so much fun and came back so late despite having schedules tomorrow. These guys are definitely going to get scolded.

After taking a shower, Chi Jingyuan was about to get some rest. He had just gotten into bed when the phone beside him suddenly rang.

"Are you asleep yet"

It was a message from Pei Zhuxuan.

Leaning against the headboard, Chi Jingyuan thought for a moment before replying with an emoji: "(Smiling face)"

After that, the phone went silent. It seemed like Bae Joo-hyun over there was a bit hesitant and after waiting for two or three minutes, she sent another message: "There's an outdoor park on the fourth floor of the hotel. Want to go take a look"

Chi Jingyuan blinked after seeing the content, then glanced at the time. It was already half past twelve.

For ordinary office workers, it's already late and they should be asleep. But for celebrities, this time is actually quite early. Many idols are usually most energetic at this hour.

Looking up for a moment, Chi Jingyuan replied with a "good" and then began to put on his clothes again. He didn't bother to dress up much, just putting on a knitted hat with a Gastly pattern, a thick coat, grabbing his room card and phone, and then walked out the door.

With a "ding," the elevator doors opened on the fourth floor. After taking a few steps, as soon as he passed through the automatic glass door, a wave of cold air instantly hit him, making Qi Jingyuan, who had been in the warmth of the heating, feel a chill. He couldn't help but tighten his sleeves and tuck his hands into his coat pockets.

He scanned his eyes and saw a figure in the distance waving at him non-stop with their phone, the bright screen very noticeable. Ji Jingyuan smiled and walked quickly over, immediately seeing Pei Zhuxuan sitting on a wooden chair.

She was wearing a thick hoodie, the white plain surface with a baby bear pattern looking a bit childish. Her leggings were tight, clearly with many layers of warm clothes underneath. She had on white cotton slippers with pink patterns, her small shoes seeming quite delicate.

Her delicate face was only lightly made up, and the cute little bear on her sweatshirt seemed to make her look much younger. Sitting there, she looked almost like a high school student.

I recommend using a source switching app to read books, it's really useful. You can download it here: .huanyuanapp Go give it a try!

Judging by her appearance, she should have been here for a while. I estimate that she didn't leave after he replied to her message; she might have come down earlier. She stood up when she saw Ji Jingyuan walk in and smiled warmly as she walked towards him.

"Celebration over" Pool Kyung-won first glanced at Pei Joo Hyuk, then casually scanned the surroundings, taking in this outdoor park.

This hotel park isn't very large, you can see the edges at a glance. However, the environment is well-designed. Though not spacious, the area is well planned out with trees and streetlights delineating several stone pathways. Every ten or so meters along the path, there's a wooden chair for visitors to rest on, surrounded by lush evergreen trees that are well-maintained even in winter, giving them a vibrant and flourishing appearance.

In the center, a small wooden pavilion bathed in the glow of street lamps looked quaint and ancient. The combination gave the entire park a sense of tranquility and elegance, like an idyllic paradise far removed from the hustle and bustle of the city. Occasionally, the sounds of car engines and horns from the road below would break the peaceful silence, adding a touch of vibrancy to the scene while simultaneously pulling visitors back to reality.

It was late in the day, and at a glance, the entire park seemed to have no other visitors except for the two of them. This also allowed Chi Jingyuan to feel more relaxed.

"I came back a long time ago. I found a restaurant nearby to celebrate, and I ordered some stir-fries. The taste was pretty good, just a little spicy..."

Pei Joo-hyuk looked at him and smiled, saying two things. Her eyes saw Ji-yeong's collar and lightly frowned, while she was speaking, she walked closer by two steps, slightly tiptoed to lift his right back collar.

Chi Jingyuan stood still and didn't move, as if he hadn't noticed when he was getting dressed. It seemed that one side of his collar wasn't straightened out properly.

After tidying up, Pei Zhuhyun lightly patted it and stepped back two steps to her original position. After standing there for two seconds, she smiled at him and sat back down in the chair.

Chi Jingyuan looked at her and pursed his lips, sitting down beside her.

It's so late and the temperature is low. Two people didn't go to sleep in the early morning and ran to the hotel park to watch the night view. Although it sounds a bit strange, the atmosphere at this time is very good. There is a quiet warmth with a hint of romance.

"When you guys won the newcomer award, how did you feel" Bae Joo-hyun tilted her head up and looked at the sky for a moment. After two minutes of silence, she spoke, her voice soft.

"The Newcomer Award" Ji Jingyuan pondered for a moment, his eyes flashing with reminiscence.

Then that would mean it's been 12 years already, two years passing in a blink of an eye. Suddenly recalling this, I find time has flown by so quickly, and there are quite a few feelings swirling within me.

"Well... I'm quite happy, really. Though I might not be as fast as you guys, when xo debuted, things were pretty rough too. The company half-shelved us soon after, and besides my solo schedules, the other members had a long break."

A scene from the past flashed through his mind, and Ji Chang Wook pursed his lips: "Although I knew it was partly related to the company, winning the award still gave me a sense of being recognized. Most importantly, it made all the members feel that the team had a lot of hope... I remember that backstage, several people were so excited that they cried, like Hyungwon hyung and Minhyuk hyung, who both cried pretty badly."

As he spoke, Ji Jingyuan lightly sniffed, a faint scent of shampoo wafting over. He turned his head and glanced at her, getting closer only to realize that Pei Zhuxuan had probably just finished showering not long ago, her hair still damp from being only partially dried.

He glanced at her a few times, reached into his pocket, and took the initiative to put his hoodie over her head.

Originally, Pei Zhuhyun was still listening attentively, her long black hair fluffy and smooth. Suddenly, she felt a darkness before her eyes, and her hoodie hat was pressed down on her head.

The hat was soft and squashed, its brim drooping down to cover her cheeks, making her look a bit cute and endearing.

I felt a lot warmer all of a sudden. Bae Joohyun blinked her eyes and didn't resist, instead she even proactively pulled the hat string tighter and looked over with a mischievous smile and asked:

And you Did you cry
