239: Resentful Girlfriend

“Exactly, besides being a bit of a goofball, who could find anything bad about our Zhiyou?”

“That’s really true. Good education, strong abilities, and now she’s a hacker. She’s definitely cool.”

“It’s just that her acting is a bit dramatic, and she’s a little silly, otherwise she’d be a perfect idol. *starry-eyed.JPG*”

“What are you saying? How is she silly? That’s called an interesting soul. And about her acting, she herself said she doesn’t like performing.”

“You guys don’t get it. Dramatic acting is good! I don’t want to see Yu-Zai hugging and cuddling with male actors, hmph~”

“Me too. Just thinking about that scene almost gives me a brain hemorrhage. I can’t accept it at all. *picking-nose.JPG*”

“Oh, that’s a unique perspective. Thinking about it that way, Yu-Zai’s dramatic acting actually becomes a strength. *crying-laughing.JPG*”

“…”

Minnie looked at these comments from netizens and exclaimed how amazing they were. She nudged Song Yuqi beside her.

“Rainie, is this what you often say, ‘as long as you’re strong enough, there will naturally be great scholars to debate for me’?”

Song Yuqi rubbed Minnie’s head and tsk-tsked, “Learning and applying it well, not bad.”

“Yah!” Minnie slapped her hand away. “How many times have I told you, don’t just casually touch my head.”

Song Yuqi rolled her eyes beautifully. “You touch mine plenty. What, are you made of gold or something?!”

“I…” Minnie found herself unable to retort.

“Stop with the ‘I, I’ already.” Cho Mi-yeon stopped their bickering, looking at Xu Zhiyou in the video with a puzzled expression.

“You guys, Zoe is a music student, so why is she so good at computers too? Are these two things related?”

Although the picture quality wasn’t clear, she could still see Xu Zhiyou retrieve the data with just a flick of her fingers, which left Cho Mi-yeon utterly impressed.

Song Yuqi patted her head and said in a coaxing tone, like to a child, “Zhiyou is a genuine academic prodigy. Don’t compare yourself to a monster, be good, okay?”

Cho Mi-yeon was currently engrossed in pondering why there was such a huge gap between people.

She didn’t react to the large hand on her head, and after thinking for a while, she gave up, saying, “Ugh! Forget it, thinking about it makes my brain hurt.”

Song Yuqi shrugged, “That’s why I often say she chose the least promising path. Did you think I was just joking?”

“Ew!” Minnie pushed her away in disgust. “Are you showing off now? Why are you so smug?”

“I’m just smug… just smug. Back in the day, I, Little Song, was also the top student in ten-mile radius…”

“Pfft~”

Minnie, Cho Mi-yeon, and Jeon Soyeon all turned their heads away. They had heard these words at least ten times.

At first, they were somewhat impressed, but ever since Xu Zhiyou set such a high standard, it no longer stirred any emotion in them.

“Yah! You three are going a bit too far…”

“Wait!” Jeon Soyeon interrupted her. “There’s a pronunciation problem. It should be like this…”

“Holy cow!”

Song Yuqi felt a toothache. Correcting pronunciation at a time like this, she even brought out the national essence.

“Yah! Be serious.” Ever since Jeon Soyeon returned from dining with Xu Zhiyou, she had been teaching Song Yuqi Peninsula language.

Minnie slapped Song Yuqi’s shoulder. “Xiaojuan is so busy, and she still has to practice speaking with you every day. Being so sloppy, what kind of behavior is that?”

“I didn’t…” Song Yuqi wanted to punch Minnie to death. She was falsely accusing her.

Cho Mi-yeon saw that they were all focused on practicing Peninsula language, so she snatched the phone away. “You guys study hard, I’ll enjoy it alone.”

Minnie rejected without thinking, “My Peninsula language level is very good, I don’t need to study this hard.”

“Then let’s watch together.”

Cho Mi-yeon and Minnie found a new spot, not to disturb Song Yuqi from learning Peninsula language.

...

“Aigoo, is Zoe that amazing?” Park Jiyeon said with an envious look after watching the whole process.

“Hey! Ji-yeon, you’re drooling.” Ham Eun-jung teased.

“Oh!” Park Jiyeon actually honestly went to wipe her drool, but wiped nothing. Realizing it, she turned to glare at Ham Eun-jung. “Yah!”

“Oh my!” Ham Eun-jung cracked her knuckles, looking at her with a smile. “Ji-yeon-na! Are you ready again?”

“Uh!!!”

“Come on! What are you waiting for?” Ham Eun-jung urged when she didn’t move. “My iron fist is already itching for action.”

“Mianhae! Eun-jung Unnie, I’ve realized my mistake, please don’t be angry.”

Park Jiyeon bowed ninety degrees, practically sliding into a kneel. What kind of international joke was this? She didn’t want a black eye package.

“Pfft~” Ham Eun-jung secretly thought it was a pity.

Lee Juri rolled her eyes, saying in disgust, “You two, do you have nothing better to do? How boring.”

“We don’t even have a group now, what can we do?” Ham Eun-jung was indeed a bit bored.

Park Hyo-min nodded. “None of us know how to manage a group. This is indeed a difficult problem.”

“Then what do we do? We can’t just give up completely, can we?” Park Jiyeon also expressed her sadness.

Park Soyeon suggested, “How about we ask Lee Ji-eun?” Lee Ji-eun had thoughts of starting a company and had researched these things quite a bit.

“Forget it, her? Pfft!”

Park Jiyeon refused without thinking. She knew her best friend’s capabilities very well.

Jeon Bo-ram saw them like this, raised her paw, and weakly said, “How about we join a company…?”

“Jeon Bo-ram-shi, stop right there.” Ham Eun-jung was the first to disagree.

Just out of the wolf’s den and into the tiger’s lair? She would rather remain a flop until the end than join another Peninsula entertainment company.

“Yah! Ham Eun-jung.” Jeon Bo-ram wanted to punch her to death. Ever since gaining freedom, she had become incredibly arrogant.

“Aigoo, Jeon Bo-ram-shi, they say good things come in small packages, but why are you…?”

Jeon Bo-ram’s forehead was covered in black lines. She stood up to hit her. “Yah! Is being tall so great?!”

Ham Eun-jung pressed down on her head and said indifferently, “Yes, it is great. Pfft!”

“Yah!”

“Eun-jung, every day you’re either bullying Ji-yeon or provoking Boram. If you can’t sit still, go beat up Suzy.”

“That’s Ji-yeon’s job. I’m not that familiar with her. How rude would it be to randomly beat her up?”

Lee Juri gave her a side-eye. “Then why do you bully Ji-yeon?”

“Exactly, not only do you make me work, but you also always bully me.” Park Jiyeon expressed strong agreement.

“Yah!”

“Ew~” Park Jiyeon was so scared she scurried behind Lee Juri to hide. “Lee Juri, Unnie, save me quickly.”

“Aish!” Ham Eun-jung was never afraid of anyone. She reached out to grab her. “Do you think I’m afraid of her? Give me…”

“Stop!” Park Soyeon picked at her ear. “You’re making my ears hurt.” She stepped forward and pulled Park Jiyeon out.

“Ji-yeon-na! Ask Lee Ji-eun for her opinion. She’s definitely better than us.”

“Soyeon Unnie, you might as well just ask Girls’ Generation’s Choi Sooyoung…”

“We only trained together during our trainee days. Our relationship isn’t that close.”

“Alright then!” Park Jiyeon threw up her hands. “Just a heads-up, Lee Ji-eun is really bad…”

The other five members of T-ara watched Park Jiyeon seriously explain how bad Lee Ji-eun was.

They all couldn’t help but feel sorry for Lee Ji-eun. Having such a clueless best friend was just… unbelievable.
