259: Mainly a willful

Bae Suzy glanced at the eager Park Jiyeon, and her frustration finally turned into a sigh: “Ah~”

“Heh!” Lee Ji-eun pouted, “Don’t act like you’re so wronged; you were the one who tricked me first.”

“Alright, me hitting your butt was what I deserved, but…” Bae Suzy pointed at Park Jiyeon and Ham Eun-jung, “Why did you two hit me?”

Ham Eun-jung hadn’t expected to be called out even though she had kept silent the entire time. She rubbed her nose and awkwardly chuckled, “Didn’t I owe Zhien? I’ll pay you back later, hehe~”

“Heh heh!” Bae Suzy rolled her eyes at her. She knew T-ARA had borrowed Lee Ji-eun’s team. Waving her hand, she said, “Remember you owe me a favor.”

Ham Eun-jung quickly nodded, “No problem.”

Having dealt with Ham Eun-jung, she then looked at Park Jiyeon: “You hit me the hardest the whole time. I don’t remember ever provoking you, do I?”

Park Jiyeon remembered Xu Zhiyou’s instructions, patted her shoulder, and said with a laugh, “We’re like sisters, no need to talk about such things.”

Bae Suzy was speechless upon hearing that. She rolled her eyes at her: “Can you at least have some shame?”

“I…”

“Forget it.” Bae Suzy couldn’t be bothered to argue with her. She found the video mocking Xu Zhiyou and showed it to them, “Have you seen this?”

“What is it?” Park Jiyeon took it curiously, and upon seeing it, she suddenly understood, “This is just chasing clout.”

“Can you be serious?” Bae Suzy gave her a big eye-roll, then looked at Lee Ji-eun, “What do you think?”

“I…”

Before Lee Ji-eun could finish, Park Jiyeon looked at her with dissatisfaction: “What part of me isn’t serious?”

“Zhien, ignore her, you continue.” Bae Suzy didn’t even spare her a glance.

“Yah!” Park Jiyeon was annoyed, “What do you know? Do you know who helped us terminate our contract?”

“Hmm?” Lee Ji-eun and Bae Suzy both looked at her, knowing T-ARA knew a big shot.

But who this big shot was, no one knew except the five of them. From what she said, Xu Zhiyou was that big shot.

Thinking of this, Lee Ji-eun asked uncertainly, “Jiyeon, could the big shot you know be… Zoe?”

Bae Suzy’s eyes lit up, and she grabbed Park Jiyeon’s arm: “Come on, tell me in detail.”

Park Jiyeon covered her face; she seemed to have blurted it out. She didn’t know if Xu Zhiyou would be annoyed with her if she found out: “Ah~”

“What’s wrong? Hurry up and tell me!” Bae Suzy urged.

Park Jiyeon rolled a beautiful big eye: “Tell you what? You’ve already guessed it; why do you still want me to say it? You’re crazy.”

“Oh my, oh my oh my.” Bae Suzy truly hadn’t expected Xu Zhiyou to be a real princess.

MBK was an industry under CJ. For MBK to obediently let people go, it showed that Xu Zhiyou’s background was stronger, not weaker, than CJ’s. What else could she be but a princess?

“Is it that strange?” Park Jiyeon asked with disdain, seeing her look like she had never seen the world.

“Putting everything else aside, her temperament and insight alone are not something an ordinary family could cultivate.”

“Tsk tsk!” Bae Suzy wasn’t in the mood to deal with her, and she sighed to herself, “What a thick thigh, I must hold onto it.”

Lee Ji-eun thought of the black card in her hand: “I knew it. How could an artist who debuted only a year ago, and took half a year off, get a black card in just six months? It turns out I’m not too useless, sigh! The world of the second generation truly makes me envious, boo hoo~”

“So capital has no reason to target her, you believe it now, right?”

Speaking of this, Bae Suzy was quite annoyed: “Who told you to keep quiet about it? Whose fault is that?!”

“Yours.”

“Oh ho!”

… …

In the Cube practice room, Minnie was ranting at her phone: “Trash, rubbish, garbage…”

“Uh???”

Song Yuqi and the two others, plus Ye Shuhua and Xu Suizhen who had just joined the phone-playing team, the five of them stared at each other, watching Minnie go crazy.

Finally, Ye Shuhua, being her compatriot, tugged at Song Yuqi: “Try to persuade her, if this continues, her phone will get water damage.”

Song Yuqi shook her head: “Spraying it on her phone is better than spraying it on my face. Let her vent; it’s her phone anyway.”

“I’m speechless.”

“Then don’t speak.” Song Yuqi replied so smoothly that she completely silenced Ye Shuhua.

After all, Ye Shuhua was still very quiet at this time, a bit far from becoming that abstract idol.

Ye Shuhua looked at the Peninsula’s anti-Chinese behavior, and then thought of their upcoming debut, and unconsciously became anxious.

She poked Song Yuqi: “Rainie, if even a great person like Youyou is being slandered, won’t we be slandered to the heavens after our debut?!”

Song Yuqi understood her anxiety: “You only get slandered if you’re popular. Let’s talk about it when we’re famous.”

Ye Shuhua thought about it and nodded: “That’s true, so many people are unknown after their debut. Worrying about this now is a bit unnecessary.”

Inside a luxurious MPV, The8 looked at the trending searches on NAVER, clicked in, and saw: “He really dares to speak his mind!”

He clicked on the person’s profile introduction: Name: An Jae-wook… Current CEO of Coco Entertainment.

He went back and saw that he occasionally mentioned a new girl group called BL, also with five members, launched by the company.

He shook his head and sighed: “Tsk tsk! Their name is BP, yours is BL, and even the number of members is the same. I’m impressed.”

“Minghao, what are you mumbling about?” Jun, who was feigning sleep beside him, asked curiously.

“See for yourself.” The8 didn’t explain, directly handing him the phone.

Jun took the phone curiously and started reading. After finishing, he was also a bit speechless and scrolled through the comments below.

He glanced at them and saw they were roughly divided into two camps, one supporting and one mocking, arguing quite lively.

After reading, Jun returned the phone to him and sighed: “With Youyou’s conditions, why would she come here to suffer this kind of treatment? What’s the point?”

Jun thought that if he had Xu Zhiyou’s connections and strength, it would be great to be a singer-songwriter in China—more money, fewer problems, and close to home. He didn’t understand it at all.

“She likes the idol profession!” The8 said without thinking.

Jun rolled his eyes: “Oh, please, with her slacker attitude, does she look like someone who loves the idol profession?”

“Uh???” The8 was instantly choked.

Jun ignored him and continued to speak: “Maybe she loved it when she first debuted, and then it was gone.”

“Hmm.” The8 nodded in agreement. They used to think Xu Zhiyou would lead BP to thoroughly crush them.

But she took a leave of absence just half a year after her debut, and after returning, she was always slacking off, prioritizing laziness over work.

Thinking of this, The8 sighed: “The world of a genius is all about being willful, I envy it.”

“Indeed.” Jun also agreed with this point, “In K-pop history, she’s the only one who dares to squander her popularity like this, all about being willful.”
