261: I am socially anxious and not good at socializing

Kim Ji-soo's face twitched, and she looked at her speechlessly: "Are you sick? Why are you bullying Park Chaeyoung for no reason?"

"You're the one who's sick!" Xu Zhiyou slapped her hand away, "Talking to the producer like that, do you still want to release an EP?"

Kim Ji-soo was stunned and said in surprise, "Are you serious?"

"Otherwise?" Xu Zhiyou looked at her as if she were an idiot.

Kim Ji-soo didn't mind: "Zoe, it's not me, but solo is already a concession from the company, we... mm mm~"

Xu Zhiyou physically muted her: "Show Ge, how are you even worse than Park Chaeyoung?"

"Aish!" Park Chaeyoung's face darkened, and she stood up to hit her, "I'll kill... mm mm~"

She was pulled by Kim Jennie halfway through, then physically muted: "Zoe, you say what you want, don't mind her."

Xu Zhiyou gave her a thumbs up: "This annoying person, it should have been like this a long time ago!"

"Mm mm~"

Park Chaeyoung waved her hands wildly, and her little face was flushed, either from exhaustion or anger.

Lisa, on the other hand, was like a marmot in a melon field, taking out her phone and snapping pictures. These were all good things to threaten Park Chaeyoung with, so the more pictures, the better.

Kim Ji-soo looked at the struggling Park Chaeyoung, rolled her eyes at Xu Zhiyou, and pulled her hand away: "Why are you teasing her for no reason?"

"Then I'll tease you."

"Get lost~" Kim Ji-soo indicated she didn't want to talk to her.

"Alright, let's get to the point. My original plan was for you to release an EP, but the CEO was afraid you couldn't handle it, so he didn't allow it."

Though she said that, they all knew that Yang Hyun-suk felt pained by them wasting songs, after all, since Xu Zhiyou's debut, every single one of her songs has been a hit.

Kim Ji-soo thought for a while and felt it was unrealistic: "Forget it, being able to solo is already very good."

"Mm!" Park Chaeyoung nodded in agreement; she also knew the situation, and solo was already the limit.

After all, they were still rookies, and their energy was focused on developing the group's popularity, especially without having established individual styles yet.

Releasing solo songs to test the waters was acceptable, but if they were to release an EP, it would be a pure waste. Besides Xu Zhiyou, the big landlord, who would be willing to be so extravagant?

Seeing their expressions, Xu Zhiyou said, "Are you two brain-dead?"

"Yah!" Kim Ji-soo pushed her, "Can't you speak properly? You're the one who's brain-dead!"

"Exactly!" Park Chaeyoung also looked at her with a resentful expression.

Kim Jennie and Park Chaeyoung, on the other hand, were twisting their fingers, looking forward to it. With Xu Zhiyou's creative ability, they had no hesitation at all.

After all, one was Xu Zhiyou's loyal sycophant, and the other was even more extreme, spending money to open a company just to work for her.

They were all family, and rather than benefiting others, it was better to do it themselves, saving effort, time, and making money. It was a no-brainer.

Xu Zhiyou ignored their subtle glances: "In the CEO's eyes, I'm just a brainless brute."

The four of them twitched their lips, and Park Chaeyoung whispered, "That self-awareness is quite accurate."

"Mm!" Kim Jennie nodded in agreement after hearing that; this person was indeed that eccentric.

People who didn't know her would be easily fooled by her idiotic appearance. Perhaps this was how wealthy families raised their second generations.

Xu Zhiyou had excellent hearing and turned to glance at the two: "That guy is practically riding on my face. It's perfectly fine for me to release some songs to prove myself, isn't it?"

"No problem, but the CEO..."

"No buts." Xu Zhiyou interrupted Kim Ji-soo, slapping her on the shoulder.

"Show Ge, don't you know me? I have social anxiety and am not good at socializing. Writing songs for people requires understanding their style."

"Uh???"

The four of them were stunned, then simultaneously covered their faces after realizing. Good heavens, she didn't even try to hide it. The image of their CEO jumping with rage involuntarily appeared in their minds.

"It's decided then. I'll handle the CEO, and you all think about what style of songs you want."

"That's too casual... isn't it bad!" Kim Ji-soo spoke weakly. Bullying the CEO so blatantly made her feel a little guilty.

Kim Jennie and the other two were also a little scared. Yang Hyun-suk couldn't do anything to Xu Zhiyou, but he could easily control the four of them, who were just small fries.

"Don't worry! It'll be perfectly fine." Xu Zhiyou made an OK gesture.

"Alright!" Kim Ji-soo said. Seeing her say that, it would be inexcusable for her to be timid. At most, she'd get scolded, which was a piece of cake.

The other three saw that their eldest sister had set the tone and said nothing more. Park Chaeyoung was right about one thing.

Xu Zhiyou alone decided on minor matters, and Xu Zhiyou and Kim Ji-soo discussed and decided on major matters.

Their three opinions were completely unimportant; they just had to listen. If they had an opinion, a mixed double beating would solve it. That's how humble they were.

They soon returned to the hotel. As the five of them entered the hotel lobby, a front desk attendant scurried over.

She spoke to Lisa in Thai: "Sawasdee ka, I'm sorry, the fire department is inspecting the facilities, and it might take some time."

"Hmm?" Lisa was stunned.

She had stayed in so many hotels, and this was the first time she had seen such a situation, though she was shocked.

However, she still explained the situation to Kim Ji-soo and the others, and the four of them expressed understanding.

But Xu Zhiyou always felt that something was off, yet she couldn't pinpoint it, adhering to her principle of not bothering to think about what she didn't understand.

She said, "So where do we go now? We can't just stay in the hotel lobby forever, can we?"

"Hmm?" Lisa pondered, pinching her chin, "How about we go shopping? I don't want to stay in the hotel."

"I have no problem." Xu Zhiyou looked at Kim Ji-soo, "What do you say?"

"Then let's go." Kim Ji-soo lifted her foot and walked out.

Only Kim Jennie and Park Chaeyoung were left standing there, looking bewildered, waiting to speak. They felt completely disrespected.

"Pfft~" Xu Zhiyou almost couldn't hold back her laughter, "Catch up." She coughed a few times, then put an arm around each of their shoulders and followed.

"Sigh~" The two sighed in unison.

Kim Jennie thought that this life was somewhat humiliating, but she didn't dare to cause trouble, afraid of getting punished.

Lisa, the little bear, spread her hands and quickly followed. She simply didn't want to stay in the hotel; everything else was irrelevant.

Upstairs in Lisa's room, her parents were busy making exquisite food, working with great joy.

Peninsula, Cube Entertainment, Minnie waited and waited but still didn't hear a statement from YG. She ran to Song Yuqi, who was dancing.

"Rainie, ask Zoe, why hasn't YG sent a lawyer's letter yet?"

Song Yuqi stopped and looked at her speechlessly: "What does it have to do with you? Is YG run by your family? You're being too nosy!"

"I just can't stand it! This is blatant bullying, and as a fan, I can't tolerate it at all."

Song Yuqi kicked her aside: "Go away, I don't have time to mess around with you."

"Yah!" Minnie immediately pounced and hung onto her, "You dare to kick me!"

"Nicha, I still have to finish my homework after practice. Please be a decent human being, okay?"

Song Yuqi truly felt exhausted. She regretted bringing her to watch Xu Zhiyou's videos.

She had never seen such a brainless fan in her life. It wasn't enough for her to be self-destructive; she had to drag her along. It was utterly exhausting.
