193: The youngest is always used to take the blame
Park Jiyeon patted her. "Lee Juri, Unnie, look at that person."
"Who is it?" Lee Juri followed her gaze. "Huh! Why do I feel like she looks familiar?"
"Let me see." Park Hyo-min walked to the window, just as Xu Zhiyou crossed her legs. "Omo! Why is Zoe here?"
"Hyo-min, Unnie, are you possessed? Everyone looks like Zoe to you."
Park Hyo-min didn't say anything, she just pulled Park Jiyeon to her side. "From this angle, you can see her profile perfectly."
Unfortunately, Xu Zhiyou had already finished crossing her legs, and they could only see her back. "Isn't it all the same?"
"I'm too lazy to talk to you." She looked at Ham Eun-jung. "Eun-jung, you go take a look."
Ham Eun-jung pointed at her nose. "Me? Why me?"
"It's you." Park Hyo-min winked at Lee Juri, who understood instantly. Together, they each grabbed one of her arms, ready to throw her out.
Ham Eun-jung was dragged to the door by the two of them. Still not having reacted, she asked, confused, "What are you two doing?"
"Go!" The two of them threw her out, not forgetting to wave at her. This left Ham Eun-jung speechless. When she came to her senses, she glared at the two of them. "Yah! Why don't you two go?"
Lee Juri spread her hands. "We're thin-skinned. You're usually the most talkative one, so this job suits you best."
"Mhm!" Park Hyo-min nodded in agreement.
Ham Eun-jung looked at Lee Juri as if she was seeing her for the first time. "Aniyo! Lee Juri, what are you even saying?"
"Human words."
"Yah!"
"Hurry up and go check. We're just asking you to confirm, not to invite her to sing. Why are you dawdling?" Park Hyo-min pushed her.
Ham Eun-jung couldn't possibly go. She didn't even know the person, and pretending to run into her would ruin her image. "Don't even think about it, I'm not going."
Park Jiyeon was afraid the fire would spread to her, so she quickly chose a side. If Ham Eun-jung refused, she would definitely be the one thrown out.
"Eun-jung, Unnie, you're really suitable."
Ham Eun-jung glared at her. "Aish! Park Jiyeon... Ow!"
Lee Juri kicked her, sending her flying. "Jiyeon what Jiyeon? We all voted, and we unanimously agreed that you are suitable. Hurry up."
"Aish! I..."
Before she could finish, passersby started gathering. She put on her hood and walked to the side. With Park Hyo-min and Lee Juri guarding the door, there was no way she could get in.
"Boram, Unnie, why is Eun-jung, Unnie walking in the opposite direction?" Park Jiyeon saw her actions and tugged at Jeon Bo-ram next to her.
"She'll be back in a bit." Park Soyeon speared an apple and put it in her mouth, smacking her lips a few times. "Too much yogurt."
The atmosphere had been tense earlier, and no one had touched the food on the table. After this commotion, everyone's mood improved significantly, and their appetites also increased.
"Let me try." Jeon Bo-ram also speared a piece, chewed it a couple of times. "It's not bad."
Ham Eun-jung walked in a circle and returned to her original spot, seeing the five of them eating and drinking, laughing happily. "Aish!"
She glanced at Xu Zhiyou, who was propping her chin and watching the show. "Sigh! If I'm going to die, I'll die. It's just a face, it's long gone anyway." After a self-deprecating thought, she walked over.
"Mhm mhm mhm!" Park Jiyeon, chewing on cantaloupe, saw Ham Eun-jung walk over and repeatedly patted Jeon Bo-ram next to her.
"Shh! Can't you be gentler? You're as strong as an ox."
She quickly ate the cantaloupe, then pointed at Ham Eun-jung. "Eun-jung, Unnie really came back, Boram, Unnie, you're amazing."
"Of course. She's usually the best at self-deprecating. Otherwise, could Lee Juri have kicked her out?"
"Uh???" Park Jiyeon didn't know what to say, looking at Jeon Bo-ram with a strange expression. "Boram, Unnie, I didn't expect you guys to actually have brains... Ow."
"Who are you calling brainless?" Jeon Bo-ram stood up and gave her a punch.
"Aniyo! Mianhae, I..."
Park Hyo-min interrupted them. "Alright, that person really is Zoe."
When Ham Eun-jung was kicked out, Xu Zhiyou had already noticed them, but she saw that there were six of them.
She thought they were discussing something, so she didn't go over, not expecting Ham Eun-jung to come to her side.
"Zoe!" Ham Eun-jung called out her name directly. "Are you here for something?"
Xu Zhiyou patted the seat next to her. "Eun-jung, Unnie, please sit down first. It wouldn't be good if you were recognized."
After she sat down, Xu Zhiyou glanced at the five people behind her, who were peeking through the glass. "Are you six discussing a lawsuit?"
Ham Eun-jung followed her gaze. "Omo! Did you notice us a long time ago?"
"Uh! How should I put it, the way you came out was quite unique, so I accidentally noticed, haha!"
Xu Zhiyou was thinking of finding an opportunity to get back at Park Chaeyoung. She had written down what Chaeyoung said on the phone, and she wouldn't let it go.
"Uh???" Ham Eun-jung fell silent, then thought about how she had deliberately walked in a circle earlier. "My goodness!"
"Eun-jung, Unnie, what's going on with you?" She looked at the high-hanging sun, unable to understand why she was shivering.
"Aniyo!" Ham Eun-jung suddenly stood up, waving her hands repeatedly. "I'm fine, I'm fine." This immediately attracted the attention of everyone around.
Xu Zhiyou held her forehead. She couldn't stay in this spot. "Eun-jung, Unnie, let's change seats first." She pulled her and ran.
Ham Eun-jung stumbled as she was pulled, then came to her senses. "Let's go to Hyo-min and the others."
"OK!"
Soon, the two arrived at the dessert shop. Although they hadn't seen each other much in private, they often chatted on their phones, and Xu Zhiyou herself was socially anxious.
So, there was no awkwardness. She glanced at the desserts on the table, grabbed a fork at random, and speared a piece, putting it in her mouth.
"Ptooey!" She spat it out after one chew. "It's so sour."
"See! Didn't I tell you it was a bit sour? And you didn't believe me." Park Soyeon finished speaking and handed her the ice cream sundae in front of her. "Eat this."
Xu Zhiyou took off the lid and tasted a spoonful. "This ice cream is pretty good, it can compete with the ones bought at convenience stores."
"Cough cough~" Park Jiyeon choked on her sudden change.
The other five also realized what she meant and were all amused. Being true to herself, never pretending, was Xu Zhiyou's style.
Park Jiyeon looked at the private room door, found no one coming in, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "Zoe, be careful not to get beaten up by the staff. We can't win... Mmm mmm."
Xu Zhiyou dug a spoonful and put it in her mouth. "With this taste, Chaeyoung's foot-rubbed food would taste better than this." Xu Zhiyou genuinely disliked it.
"Is it that bad?"
"It's really quite mediocre." Park Jiyeon chewed a few bites. "Even comparing it to convenience stores is too generous."
Xu Zhiyou put down the ice cream box. "Who picked this shop?"
"Jiyeon." X5!
Park Jiyeon looked at the five of them in astonishment. Seeing Park Jiyeon's reaction, Xu Zhiyou pulled out her phone and snapped two pictures.
"Jiyeon, Unnie! Your shocked expression is perfect for an emoji."
"Aniyo! I didn't pick it, my taste isn't that bad."
"Arasso, usually when we feel embarrassed, we also push it onto Lisa. This is called the correct usage of the maknae, it's not strange."
"Uh???" Park Jiyeon inexplicably empathized with Lisa.
