Chapter 54 Have You Ever Been Bullied?

would need to wear heavy makeup to cover some of it up.Although others weren't as severely ill as Jin Geox, they didn't fare much better either.Both sides greeted each other, Team K went to the compa..."How is your personality"

Chi Jingyuan curiously looked over.

"I only heard..."

Jane S. immediately cleared her responsibility, stating that she had nothing to do with it: "I heard some rumors among trainees, it seems that senior Shirley's personality is...well... rather self-centered, and she does things more casually. Sometimes the company's management doesn't listen much."

"Are you girls trainees interested in this kind of stuff every day"

Ji Jingyuan grumbled a bit, but after recalling his interactions with Choi Se-ri when he was MC a few days ago, he pondered for a few seconds before nodding. “It’s not entirely unfounded. She might have it to some extent. But I've interacted with her a few times, and I think her personality is pretty good.”

"Compared to rumors, I naturally believe in your vision, Jingyuan!"

Jiang Seqi puffed out her cheeks and smiled, looking rather silly: “Besides, Senior Shirley is a senior who has already debuted, so she would definitely be happy to meet us.”

"Well, you can go flaunt that then. You and Ji Jingyuan are such good friends."

Chi Jingyuan curled his lips and retorted.

"Wow, how did you know we often brag about you"

Sun Shengwan looked at him with wide eyes, as if exposed.

"Hahaha…"

A few others couldn't help but laugh, this child really didn't seem very bright.

"How have you guys been lately Any news about your debut" Ji Jingyuan asked with concern.

"Inside, talking about this... we've received news that the company seems to be preparing a pre-debut artist project recently called ** Rookies. They will continuously release practice footage and daily lives of trainees online. The room manager said if you get selected, your chances of debuting will increase significantly."

Speaking of this, Jiang Shiqi immediately perked up, her eyes sparkling as she gave an enthusiastic introduction. After finishing, she closed her mouth and became a little reserved, not continuing to speak. She looked at them expectantly with a "go on" expression.

Well then, let me ask you, were you selected

Qi Jingyuan and Wu Shixun looked at each other, sighed, and took the opportunity to ask what was on their mind.

"Haha, Zzang! The head manager has talked to me, and I'm already a ** Rookies trainee. After all, I've been practicing for several years as a senior, my skills are pretty strong."

Jiang Sheqi beamed with pride, looking quite pleased with herself.

And what if we win

"I wasn't chosen this time, but the teacher told me that my singing ability is pretty good and I've improved quickly in other areas. The company likes me, so there's a high chance I'll be considered for the next round."

Son Seung-wan got her promise, so she wasn't discouraged. She smiled and shook hands with Kang Seobgi. The two looked at each other and smiled sweetly, looking inseparable.

"By the way, Joohyun unnie was also selected."

Ginger Shiqi seemed to have suddenly thought of something and added.

"Jisoo unnie... Park Jisoo When did you get so close to her"

At the sound of this name, Chi Jingyuan gritted his teeth.

"Didn't I tell you before We've known each other for a long time. We've been practicing together and eating together frequently since over half a year ago."

"She seems quite aloof when you don't get to know her well, but after getting to know her, you'll find she's a really great person. She can be a bit goofy sometimes, hehe. I'll introduce you to her next time."

When it came to talking about Pyo Ji-hye, both of them, Kang Seobgi and Yeom Gyeongseo, talked nonstop.

"Joohyun unni is also very interested in EXO, by the way, she kind of resembles Kyungwon, and seems to like those somewhat childish cartoons too."

As she spoke, Jiang Sheqi pointed at Chi Jingyuan's clothes and pursed her lips.

"Immature I'm so trendy in this outfit, where is the immaturity"

Qi Jingyuan immediately refuted, frowning and looking serious.

He was wearing a white round-neck shirt today, with the front printed with a picture of Nobita Nobi, the main character of , standing at attention with his hand on his forehead and gazing seriously forward.

Even though it was a very formal expression and action, when performed by Nobita, it seemed inexplicably funny.

"Don't even mention it. You were wearing that outfit when we went out, and I didn't even want to stand next to you. A bunch of people kept staring at your clothes, and we almost got recognized."

Wu Shixun looked at Ji Jingyuan's clothes, waved his hand and gave a dismissive look.

"That's something you don't understand."

Chi Jingyuan let out a light hum and curled his lip.

"I think it's quite good-looking and cute." Son Seong-wan said he really likes it.

Just as several people were arguing about whether Chi Jingyuan's clothes looked good or not, his phone suddenly rang. He picked it up and said to the group, "I'm going to answer her call," before putting on a mask and walking out of the private room.

As soon as they arrived at the restaurant entrance, Choi Seol-ri walked past them. Though she was also disguised, her fiery orange hair and figure were quite conspicuous, and Ji Kyeong-won recognized her instantly.

Choi Se-ri was wearing a simple white shirt and jeans, with her hair tied in a braid behind her head. She looked just like a student.

Waving at her, Choi Se-ri's eyes clearly crinkled at the corners as she quickened her pace and walked over.

"I never would have guessed, your private style is like this." She stared at the big tiger on Chi Jingyuan's clothes for a while, saying in disbelief.

"Aren't I handsome You'll find out later. Come on."

Ji Jingyuan led Cui Xueli into the private room. Several people greeted each other enthusiastically. Cui Xueli smiled happily, even facing two female trainees who hadn't debuted yet, she didn't show any disrespect at all, instead, she naturally sat beside them and chatted.

They were all from ** Entertainment, having met each other at the company many times before. Since they were also classmates from 1994 and had been introduced to each other through Ji Chang-wook, the group quickly became close friends.

After eating and drinking, we didn't chat for long. We were just making time in the evening, and trainees can't stay out too late at night. Besides, EXO and f(x) have more schedules tomorrow.

After everything was done, everyone went their separate ways. Wu Shixun sent Jiang Seqi back home by car, while Ji Jingyuan sent Choi Se-ri back to the FX dormitory by Park Jae-hyun's car.

The black sedan moved slowly along the bustling road, its windows reflecting the dazzling neon lights of Seoul's nightlife. The cacophony of honking horns made the interior of the car seem eerily quiet.

At this moment, Chi Jingyuan and Cui Xueli were sitting in the back row. One leaned against the left window and the other against the right, each gazing out at the scenery. The laughter and excitement from the gathering just moments ago seemed to have been separated by something, leaving only silence behind.

"Actually, there's no need to do that."

Ji Jingyuan opened his mouth, his gaze still fixed on the window, but Cui Xueli knew very well he was speaking to her.

Just be yourself and build on your existing foundation, paying a little more attention to others' feelings. You don't need to lower yourself by blindly agreeing with them.

Chi Jingyuan's voice was calm and gentle, as if he were chatting with an old friend.

When we were eating just now, he noticed that Choi Soo-ri's attitude was a little off. It wasn't exactly pleasing, but she did make a point of lowering her posture and actively chatting with Jiang Se-qi, trying to build rapport.

If it weren't like this, even if they were from the same year, her senior who had debuted for several years and was very popular wouldn't have chatted with the two female trainees so happily.

"It's hard to meet some people of the same age. I just want a few more close friends to talk to, and besides, aren't you here too"

Choi Soo-young rested her hand on the car door, her head leaning against her arm. Her lips were slightly pouted, and her gaze, filled with longing and a hint of haziness, watched the street scenery rushing past outside as she replied.

Her expression at this moment seemed somewhat indifferent, a stark contrast to her passionate self just now.

Suddenly, as if remembering something, she asked Chi Jingyuan a question:

By the way, were you bullied when you were in school
