Chapter Eleven: Brothers

st."Ji Jingyuan stood up and gave a polite reply.Lee Xiu-man indeed wasn't shaken. Most of the key points he mentioned in the opinion report he submitted a few days ago were basically adopted, and he..."Your leave of absence paperwork is all done. You don't have to go to class anymore." 。"To be honest, I wasn't a very good student to begin with. Getting into Yenching University must have taken a lot of effort from all of you. Instead of enduring this hardship together, why not just seek temporary relief" 。Chi Jingyuan was very clear in his own mind. He knew that his academic performance could only be considered average at best, and with his talent, there was no need to continue academically. Being able to get into one of the best universities on the peninsula was entirely thanks to his family's efforts behind the scenes. 。"Having self-awareness, he is truly my brother." 。

Chi Jingxu gave his younger brother a look of approval.

Chi Jingyuan was too lazy to keep shooting glares with his older brother. He changed to a more comfortable position, lying on the sofa and sighed, "Speaking of which, why did you, Big Sis, and Dad and Mom all agree this time when I said I wanted to be an artist You guys always refused me flat out whenever I mentioned it in the past few years." 。Many years ago, Chi Jingyuan might have been influenced by auditory hallucinations in his dreams. This led him to develop an interest in both music and film. 。While searching for melodies and plots that matched what was in my mind, I came across a lot of material. This inevitably led to a yearning within me, and I started feeling a strong urge to join the entertainment industry and pursue singing and dancing. 。Under his request, his parents found him a very professional dance teacher and vocal teacher, and he has also been practicing for many years. It is because of this foundation that he can directly join the ** group that was already scheduled to debut. 。If there were absolutely no talent in dancing or singing, even if Lee Soo-man and Kim Young-min needed some of his family's resources, they wouldn't force him to join a debut group and stand like a wooden post on stage. 。

His parents didn't object to his training in dance and vocal music, however, they would directly refuse any request he made about entering the entertainment industry. Even his eldest sister, who always doted on him, was no different, with no room for negotiation.

Although Chi Jingyuan has a strong personal character, he does not rebel against his family's discipline. He has benefited immensely from his family since birth and started life far ahead of his peers. Being bound by family rules is only natural.

Since everyone in his family disagreed, he didn't resist and continued to study diligently at school while also undergoing dance and vocal training. He would only occasionally bring up the old matter every once in a while, but after being rejected, he would swallow it back down again. 。This situation has persisted for nearly two years, and Chi Jingyuan's dance training also stopped during the college entrance examination period last year. 。After the college entrance exam, he brought up the old idea again. Unexpectedly, his family considered it and agreed. Both his second older brother and older sister expressed their support, and even his parents didn't object. 。This is what led to him joining ** Entertainment and the series of events that happened today, and the one who connected him with Kim Young-min was his second older brother, Ji Chang-wook. 。"

“Humph…”

Ji Jingxu gave Ji Jingyuan a ‘brotherly, brother’ look and said:

“Before we all expressed our refusal, it was because you didn't have the preparation to make your own future decisions. You just wanted to enter the entertainment industry on a whim because you liked music and film and television, like a moth that sees fire and rushes in without considering anything else.”

" 。If there were no influence of family, your cost of trial and error would be zero. 。And you had a very limited understanding of the entertainment industry a few years ago. You thought that what you saw on TV every day was all there was to it Just being able to sing and perform on stage means becoming a star Don't frown, I know you used to think that way! Back then, you were so naive, I was embarrassed for you. 。“ ”

Chíng Xù gave Chíng Yuán a dismissive glance and continued, “But luckily our family genes are pretty good. You've matured quite a bit in the past two years. Although you're still rather superficial, at least you've learned to observe things with your own eyes.”

"How about you, did anything interesting happen today"Chi Jingyuan nodded lightly. Today, he had gained a lot of insight. Just one rookie boy group, according to his observation, was divided into several small groups, and each person had different thoughts. 。And Lee Xiu-man, who welcomed his arrival, and Kim Young-min, whom he had met before, also made Ji Kyeong-won feel that these two people might not get along. 。This is just a small corner of the entertainment industry, but it already reflects the complexities within. 。But Chi Jingyuan found it quite interesting, at least more interesting than being in school. 。"

“This kind of thing, just teaching is no use, everyone's personality is different, you have to use your own eyes to observe, and distinguish many things from it, such as everyone's goodwill and malice towards you, everyone's demands and ideas

" 。Chi Jingxu felt great teaching his younger brother, and it was worth him pushing aside many things tonight to be home waiting. 。"But don't worry too much, I know the group you joined. You're the youngest one there, and the others are just some young people in their twenties." 。Young people at this age are the most interesting. They are both passionate and indifferent, talking about interests while also emphasizing loyalty. Even if they have some scheming, it's not exaggerated. So don't always think about plotting against your teammates, it doesn't make much sense. It only teaches you this way of thinking. 。"Pool Jingyuan nodded slightly. Born into this kind of family, he had always been relatively mature. His parents and older brother and sister also often taught him by word and deed. He could understand his brother's meaning." 。"

“This time you worked hard to get into Yeonsei University… Don’t give me that look, I did indeed use some connections to get you admitted, but you also deserve a lot of the credit. For example, if you hadn't taken the exam at all, then even I wouldn't have been able to do anything about it…”

" 。

Chi Jingyuan turned his head silently. His sunny smile and humble personality were all on the surface; in reality, he was arrogant and ambitious. His second brother knew exactly what to say to hit his younger brother's weak points.

Ji Jingxu smiled smugly and continued, "You've matured a lot in the past two years, and your family is more at ease. Besides, since you got into university, you have a certain cost of trial and error. Even if you fail, you can just come back to school. The entertainment industry is still very training for people. Going there for training is also pretty good. It's definitely better than sitting in the classroom racking your brains and then staring blankly." 。"Oh, Dad, Mom, and my older sister all had similar thoughts. Even if you had been around in the entertainment industry for a few years and left empty-handed, it wouldn't matter. You were only in your twenties at that time, so coming back to continue university or taking over some family business wasn't too late." 。Speaking of this, Ji Jingxu's expression suddenly became serious. He looked at his younger brother beside him and asked with a strange expression, "And Jingyuan, do you know You're not the first person in this family to want to be an artist." 。"You're saying..." Qi Jingyuan was stunned, looking at his second brother with some disbelief. 。"It's wonderful to be able to do what you're talented at and want to do at such a good age." 。Ji Jingxu looked at his younger brother, his eyes filled with the image of him and his older sister when they were young. 。
