272: Eating melon is the most important

Lim Nayeon thought Minatozaki Sana didn't believe her: "Sana-chan!" She spread her hands. "You really are short-sighted. Zoe is a genius. Is it really that unbelievable?"

Minatozaki Sana looked at her smug expression, thinking that if someone didn't know, they'd think Lim Nayeon was amazing. She was about to retort when Kim Dahyun interjected at the right time: "Nayeon-onni, are you really sure she wrote this song in the time it takes to eat a hotpot?"

Lim Nayeon looked at the shocked Kim Dahyun and wagged her index finger: "No! You're wrong. She wrote it in about ten minutes after eating hotpot."

"And it's not just this song; there's also Seulgi's and iKON's title tracks, and Chaeyoung's collaboration with IU Senior;"

"Plus, the solo songs for the four of them—Zoe wrote all of these in a few minutes." She looked around.

Seeing their stunned expressions, she continued smugly, "How about that? Doesn't that sting?"

Let them call her a sycophant; clearly, her elderly self had a discerning eye and knew the importance of following the right leader. Those idiots, they're nothing.

The few of them were already immersed in Xu Zhiyou's incredible creative power and had no mind to pay attention to her smug little expression.

Chou Tzuyu looked at Xu Zhiyou, who was singing with her eyes closed, and muttered, "Tsk tsk! No wonder she dared to openly retort in the live stream;"

"If I had that talent, I'd retort so hard at those who talk trash in my live stream that their ancestors would float out of their ashes. I'm so envious, boo hoo hoo~"

"Tzuyu, what are you thinking about?" Myoui Mina asked, seeing Chou Tzuyu pouting.

Chou Tzuyu heard her, turned her head, and looked at her with a wronged expression: "Myoui Mina Ouni, why is heaven so unfair!"

Myoui Mina understood her sadness and patted her shoulder to comfort her: "Tzuyu, 99% of people in this world are just making up the numbers. Try to look on the bright side!"

"Uh???" Chou Tzuyu felt even more choked up after that comfort.

Minatozaki Sana saw Chou Tzuyu's gloomy expression and said to Myoui Mina, speechless: "Myoui Mina-chan, you really know how to comfort people!"

"It's alright!"

"Uh???" Minatozaki Sana looked at her harmless face, not knowing what to say, and finally chose silence.

Lim Nayeon saw that they had all come back to their senses and said in a very smug tone, "How about that? My judgment isn't bad, is it?"

The others all rolled their eyes at her, as if she were the one who did it herself. A sycophant, a sycophant, licks until the end, and has nothing.

"Yah!" Lim Nayeon felt their disdain and said with an unhappy expression, "You..."

"Nayeon-onni, that's enough." Kim Dahyun raised her hand to interrupt her. "What does her being amazing have to do with you? Let's not lose face, okay?"

"Heh!" Lim Nayeon heard this and expressed extreme disdain.

BP's experience told her that following the right person was better than anything. A bunch of foolish kids were still too naive.

...

In S.M. Entertainment's Blue Sky White Clouds practice room, Bae Joo-hyun's eyelids twitched as she looked at the data for Xu Zhiyou's collaboration song.

Kim Yerim saw that she hadn't spoken for a long time, poked her arm, and whispered, "Irene, are you alright?"

"I'm not dying!" She put down her phone and said this in utter despair, which made Kang Seul-gi and the others barely suppress their laughter.

Kang Seul-gi covered her mouth, poked Son Seung-wan, and whispered, "Wendy, why do I feel like Zoe and Irene are fated to clash?"

"Hmm???"

Kang Seul-gi saw her confused expression and continued in a low voice, "Think about it, Irene has been practicing so hard for this comeback, just to get more first places, right?"

"Now, before the song is even released, a first place is likely already locked in by Zoe's collaboration song, pfft~"

Son Seung-wan saw her expression of watching a show and whispered in her ear, reminding her, "Have you forgotten that we and Irene are in the same group?"

"So what? Does that affect me eating melon and watching the show!" She replied with such indifference. Kang Seul-gi was all about being transparent.

Son Seung-wan rolled her eyes. Look at this nonchalance, so very Kang Seul-gi. But then again, she herself didn't seem to care that much either.

Forget it, let it be. Whatever happens, happens. If you can't beat them, find an opportunity to join them later. Smart as she was, brilliant.

If Bae Joo-hyun, lying on the floor, knew their thoughts, she would probably jump up and bash their knees with her forehead. Giving up before even fighting, a bunch of cowards.

But she didn't have the mind for that now. She opened her contacts, found Xu Zhiyou's number, and dialed it.

Xu Zhiyou was being chased and beaten by Kim Ji-soo when she heard her phone ring: "Show Ge, I..."

"What 'I'? You damned scoundrel, prepare to die!" Kim Ji-soo grew more furious the more she chased.

Nothing else, after hitting her twice at the beginning, she hadn't touched her even once since.

She really didn't believe it. Today, she had to hit her with a few pillows, otherwise, it would affect her endocrine system.

The three hiding in the bathroom saw Xu Zhiyou's phone ringing. They looked at each other.

Finally, Kim Jennie and Park Chaeyoung exchanged glances and nodded in understanding. Kim Jennie suddenly opened the door and shouted, "Chaeyoung, quick!"

Park Chaeyoung quickly kicked Lisa in the butt, sending her flying out, and then Kim Jennie closed the door.

The two cooperated with such tacit agreement, leaving Lisa standing outside the door, utterly bewildered. What happened? Wasn't she in the bathroom? How did she get out?

Xu Zhiyou was being chased, dodging left and right, with no chance to grab her phone. Seeing Lisa come out, she said, "Lisa, see who's calling?"

"Oh!" She instinctively responded to Xu Zhiyou, but her actions showed no movement.

Xu Zhiyou saw her not moving, picked up a pillow and threw it at her: "Aish, Lalisa, what are you doing?"

Lisa was hit and came to her senses. First, she kicked the bathroom door: "Ow! Ouch ouch ouch~"

She forgot she was wearing slippers, hopping on her tiptoes, which made Xu Zhiyou roll her eyes. This person probably really left her brain on stage.

She had never seen such a stupid person. It was truly speechless that they opened the door for speechless; it was utterly speechless.

Kim Ji-soo heard the sound and stopped her pursuit, rushing over to check on Lisa.

Xu Zhiyou took advantage of this break and instinctively answered the phone in Chinese: "Hello!"

"Hmm???" Bae Joo-hyun didn't understand, thinking someone else had answered the phone, and switched to English: "Hello, is Zoe there?"

"Hmm?" Xu Zhiyou heard Bae Joo-hyun's voice and teased, "Aish, Big-Headed Bae, you can't even recognize my voice, you really deserve to die!"

Bae Joo-hyun, who was lying on the ground, instantly flared up when she heard this. She sat up straight and started to rant: "Aish, you're the big-headed one, I..."

Xu Zhiyou quickly moved her phone away. The torrent of curses was making her ears hurt.

On Red Velvet's side, Kang Seul-gi and the other three shivered, looking at their captain, who was spewing words like a machine gun.

A familiar scene, a familiar recipe. Last time this happened, the four of them almost vomited from practice. This time, they would probably suffer again. Scary!

On Xu Zhiyou's side, Lisa, who had just been hopping around in pain, was so busy eating melon that she forgot the pain.

There was no other way; Bae Joo-hyun's voice was too loud. Even without speakerphone, they could hear her.

The cry of pain stopped abruptly. Kim Ji-soo looked up and saw Lisa's smug expression, busy eating melon.
