144: Bae Joo-hyun arrives
Forcibly pulling Park Chaeyoung off her, she still had to go fishing after the live broadcast. How could a remote, desolate place like this be as comfortable as an old BJ's?
"Chaeyoung, get off me. We just saw each other last month. Don't act like a ghost returning from the dead. You're still live-streaming."
"Oh! I forgot." Kim Ji-soo sat in front of the camera, apologizing profusely. This matter was their fault; how could they run away midway?
"Waaah! You finally remembered us. I'm crying to death."
"Jisoo, quickly turn the camera so we can see if Zoe has changed at all."
"Right, right, right! She disappeared in November last year, and now it's mid-July. She hasn't gotten fat in all this time, has she?!"
"With her appetite, and no company restrictions for the past six months, she must have gotten fat as a ball. But even if she has a round face, I still love her."
Seeing the comments online saying Xu Zhiyou was fat as a ball and had a round face, she couldn't help but burst out laughing. "Xu Fatty, come over and say hello to your fans! Hahaha~"
"Holy crap! She's not really fat, is she? From K-pop's visual NO.1 to weight NO.1, no way!"
Xu Zhiyou came in front of the camera and saw so many bullet comments indirectly calling her a glutton and fat as a ball, which made her a bit flustered.
"Where am I fat, this girl? Look!" She spun around twice in front of the camera. "Who's spreading rumors about me? Aren't you afraid of hurting my feelings?"
"Holy cow! This figure, this beauty, but in this hot weather, you're wearing jeans with a white shirt, totally wasting such a good figure."
"How superficial. Our Zoe doesn't rely on her looks or figure to stand out. But these legs are longer than my life. It's a bit of a shame not to show them off!"
"I almost accidentally injured a friendly earlier. Be good! Listen, don't do that again, or you might get beaten to death."
"Hey, hey, hey! This is a proper live stream. Let's discuss something normal. Haven't you seen enough of Rogue Sha's long legs?"
Lisa was quite upset. How was she a rogue? At most, she was a bit of a hooligan, not a rogue! She couldn't win, so she had to endure.
They chatted and joked for half an hour, and finally, someone asked about the comeback. She almost shed tears; these were her true family!
"Songs?" She picked a segment of Lisa's and hummed it. "Lisa's soft voice is a bit hard to imitate. Let's leave it at this for now! You'll know the rest later."
"Holy cow! It's so adorable, and Lisa's soft voice each has its own unique charm. I love them both!"
"Hey! It seems pretty good. I'm looking forward to it~"
"But there's no Zoe! She just came back. I want to see the five-member version. Can you add one? We can wait; at most, it'll be delayed a few days, right?"
"Me too! +1!"
Looking at the rows of bullet comments asking her to re-shoot the music video, she thought, 'Re-shoot what?' If they just talked, she'd be busy for more than ten days. She couldn't do it at all.
Before she could refuse, Kim Ji-soo, that scoundrel, agreed for her. If it weren't for the live broadcast, Xu Zhiyou would have killed her in minutes.
"I'll re-shoot it, but you still have to watch the four-member version later, okay?"
Bae Joo-hyun next door was also making a comeback on the same day. How could they overshadow her? She still had to interview her.
If their views weren't as high as theirs, how could she mock Bae Da Tou?
By the time the live broadcast ended, the news of Xu Zhiyou rejoining the group was trending, making Park Chaeyoung incredibly jealous.
"Irene, where are you going?" Kang Seul-gi came out of the bedroom and saw Bae Joo-hyun walking out with a cleaver.
"I'm going to get revenge. Don't wait for me for dinner."
"Revenge? Who offended you?"
"Seulgi Unnie, have you been offline? Zoe is back in the group." Kim Yerim opened the trending topics to show her.
"Oh my god, really! Irene, wait for me, I'll go with you." She went back to her room to change.
By the time she came out, Bae Joo-hyun was long gone. "Aish! That cursed Bae Da Tou, she deserves it." She said as she walked towards the garage.
Xu Zhiyou had originally planned to go home and fish after the live broadcast, but it seemed she still had to re-shoot a music video. What a mess.
"Show Ge! Are you sick? I have enough time to make a comeback if I have the time to reshoot a music video. Doing this is completely meaningless, do you know that?"
"How is it meaningless? To be honest, we're not satisfied with this music video. We're used to fine quality, and this music video is too crude. It's frustrating!"
This was also why Kim Ji-soo immediately agreed. They used to take at least a week to shoot, but this one only took two days, and they were dissatisfied with many details.
"I looked at it, and it's fine! I took a long time to shoot because I'm bad. This director is skilled, so the time is naturally shorter. Do you judge quality by shooting time? How absurd!"
"How is that possible? Look at me crawling, ah, no! This part where I'm lying on the ground is too lewd. Let's re-shoot it!"
Park Chaeyoung looked at Xu Zhiyou with sparkling eyes.
"I didn't notice until you said it, but it is a bit lewd. Chaeyoung, did you offend the director? This is entirely an angle problem, not your fault."
"I don't think so! I just zoned out for a bit. The director can't be that petty, can he?"
"I must have overthought it. You still have a few days for your promotional activities. Let's use this gap to finish shooting the music video."
Following this blueprint and adding individual parts, many shots can be reused, so it shouldn't take many days.
"Tzuyu! Zoe is back, aren't you going to go play with her?"
"Na-yeon Ouni, do you think I have time?" Chou Tzuyu also wanted to go play with Xu Zhiyou, but she was so busy she was dizzy, it was frustrating.
"Sigh! We only get a few days off all year. What are we doing this for?" Kim Dahyun was even doubting life itself.
They were as tired as dogs, but their fame wasn't as great as four slacker men plus a sleeping god. Who could they complain to?
"That's true! I thought Kim Hit Ball's comeback this time would flop, but I didn't expect the popularity to immediately rise once Zoe came back. Amazing!"
"Na-yeon Ouni, you're just imagining things. Even if they can't completely crush BTS and SEVENTEEN, their results definitely won't be bad."
Sana had been following their songs, and the released teaser was quite good. It was impossible for it to flop.
Lim Yoona saw the trending topic of Xu Zhiyou's return on set and sped up the filming of the remaining scenes before going to find Xu Zhiyou.
Life without Xu Zhiyou for the past six months had been dull. Every day she returned to her monotonous life. She missed her dearly.
Xu Zhiyou felt a chill down her spine and suddenly had a bad premonition, putting down the marker pen in her hand.
"What's wrong? Keep writing! Time is tight and the task is heavy. Even an iron mule doesn't rest as much as you do!"
"Chaeyoung, stop! I feel like someone is trying to harm me."
"Who would bother harming you? Hurry up and write, I'm getting into it, you..." A bang interrupted Park Chaeyoung's remaining words.
Xu Zhiyou looked outside the door and saw Bae Joo-hyun standing there with a cleaver. "Holy cow! Is she that vengeful? It's been half a year, hasn't it?"
"Um! Irene, you've grown taller since we last met! Hehe~"
