95: Live broadcast ends

She was speaking so well, but after glancing at the comments, she suddenly covered her face and fell silent. Xu Zhiyou looked at her and said, exasperated, "Is that all, Show Ge? Do you really have to be like this?"

Kim Ji-soo couldn't be bothered to respond to her. It was too explicit, and she was a proper person; she couldn't engage in such topics.

Xu Zhiyou looked at her ostrich-like behavior and thought she had truly mastered Kim Jennie's essence. "Tsk! Our Jisoo is shy, I'll host then. What do you want to ask?"

"Dumpling Ni is sleeping. She was tired from exercising with Chaeyoung last night!"

"Tell us the details? Running and exercising, what's there to talk about?"

"Oh my, you guys have twisted minds! How can you misinterpret that? This is a proper live stream, and I'm a proper person, so stop messing around."

"She's so good-looking, why is she so silly? Is she a full moon? Are they talking about Jisoo? She is indeed quite silly."

Kim Ji-soo picked up the teddy bear from the bed and hit her on the back of the head with it. She was so annoying. "I'm talking about you, don't drag me into this."

"Jisoo, what are you guys doing?" Kim Jennie was woken by the noise and walked in, disheveled and scratching her head.

Seeing the two of them looking at her strangely, she asked, "What? Have you eaten? I'm going to make toast."

"Jennie, we're live streaming, and your appearance, uh..."

She stood there, stunned and motionless, then turned smoothly and darted out, her little bear slippers flying off somewhere.

"Pfft~~"

"Hold it in, or Jennie will kill you."

"It's fine, she's quite open-minded. Aren't we also barefaced? Besides, her bare face looks quite good." She turned to the camera and said, "Right!"

The comments were flooded with 'cute.' After a while, Kim Jennie returned, this time having tidied herself up.

"Jisoo, why are you live streaming so early in the morning? Don't you have time to play games?" Kim Jennie felt like she didn't even know the two of them anymore.

The two biggest late-risers of BLACKPINK were actually up so early, it was truly rare.

"The CEO asked Zoe to introduce the new song. The live stream hasn't been on for long, we'll talk more when more people join."

"Wouldn't posting on Instagram solve it? Does this really need a live stream?"

"The CEO said fans were hounding YG Entertainment, so he told me to do a live stream. Otherwise, why would I go through all this trouble?"

"Oh~"

That made sense. Xu Zhiyou, someone who couldn't sit still, couldn't really do a live stream without Kim Ji-soo watching over her.

"Annyeong, Annyeong~"

Live streaming, she had often accompanied Kim Ji-soo before, who loved to drag her into live streams for no particular reason. This was familiar to her.

"Oh, Dumpling Ni, I didn't realize you were so eloquent on live streams. Why were you so flustered when receiving the award yesterday?"

"Yah!" Suddenly struck by a bad memory, she exclaimed, "Can that even compare? So many eyes were staring at me offstage, how could I not be nervous!"

"You're bolder through a screen. You should act more; acting suits you."

"Then why don't you work harder, you're always so unmotivated."

"What does that have to do with me?"

"You write scripts and direct, and we act. Didn't we agree on that? If you don't work hard, how can we become actors? How does it have nothing to do with you?"

"Heh heh! Just pretend I didn't say anything."

"Zoe, I think Jennie is right. You need to work hard! We're all counting on you." When it came to acting, Kim Ji-soo had plenty to say.

She truly believed Xu Zhiyou could do it. The 'Whistle' MV already had hundreds of millions of views, which was enough to prove her ability.

"Show Ge, your delusion is acting up again. Work hard, work hard, am I not working hard enough? I'm an idol. Is it appropriate for you to make me study directing and screenwriting?"

Xu Zhiyou found it ridiculous. She did have thoughts of developing into directing, but now wasn't the time. She understood the saying 'don't bite off more than you can chew.'

At the very least, she needed to master singing and win one or two Grammy Best Singer awards before considering other things. Trying to do too many things at once would surely lead to failure.

"Why isn't it appropriate? Let me tell you, you definitely can't act. With your perpetually..." Xu Zhiyou quickly covered her mouth.

"Yah, we're live streaming, don't blurt everything out. Be careful."

Kim Jennie chimed in, "You can only play characters with a single persona, so Jisoo is right, you should completely block off the path of acting."

"Then I'll be a singer, how about that!"

Kim Ji-soo pried her hand away and whispered in her ear, "Being a singer doesn't make as much money as being a director and screenwriter. You need to get your act together and think about the money. That's your motivation to work hard."

"Although, I still need to study. So, I'll go to various film crews to learn whenever I have time. Don't bother me for no reason."

This reason was acceptable. She was quite poor now and needed to make money quickly. Now, whenever she encountered a charity gala or something, her legs would go weak.

If she donated, she wouldn't have any money to spend, and it would be embarrassing to go home and ask for it. If she didn't donate or donated too little, people would talk. It was all because of insufficient money.

"Jisoo, what did you tell her? Her attitude changed so much?" Kim Jennie felt like she was seeing a ghost. Just a moment ago, she was completely resistant, now what was this all about?

"Nothing much. That trick only works on her; it wouldn't work on us."

Xu Zhiyou currently had no desires for anything other than money. She had to be stimulated with money to get her to act.

"Live stream, live stream. After you talk about your song, we'll go back to what we were doing."

Kim Ji-soo suddenly had a plan to cultivate Xu Zhiyou. She needed to find Park Sandara to cooperate. Xu Zhiyou, her future exclusive director and screenwriter, needed careful nurturing.

"Show Ge, why are you smiling? Your smile makes me feel very uneasy."

Xu Zhiyou suddenly felt a chill wind blow, something she hadn't felt since graduating high school. It was a very bad sign.

Kim Ji-soo had important matters to attend to now, so she just wanted to end it quickly, then discuss it with Park Sandara, confident that she would be interested.

"I'll tell them for you. Her song will be released on December 1st. That's it. Everyone go back to what you're doing, and we'll see you tonight."

She reached out to turn off the live stream, and with a click, the screen went black. Not only Xu Zhiyou, but Kim Jennie was also shocked by her action.

"Jisoo, what are you doing? Is this an appropriate way to introduce it?"

"Otherwise, what else is there to introduce? The CEO just wanted her to show her face. Do you really think there's anything to introduce? This is usually just an Instagram post."

"I guess so. I'm going to make toast, does anyone want some?"

"What toast? Come help me put away my clothes. I have something to do later."

...

It took five or six minutes of busy work to put away all her clothes. "Jisoo, you could open a clothing store with all this! Why so many!"

"You don't have much less either. Don't wait for me for lunch; just pick me up at the company." She grabbed her bag and walked out.

Kim Jennie was quite confused. She didn't think Kim Ji-soo would have anything to do. What was she rushing about for?

She turned to ask Xu Zhiyou, who was equally bewildered, "What exactly is Jisoo going to do?"

"How should I know? I'm going back to sleep. Wake me up for lunch." If she couldn't figure it out, she wouldn't bother wasting brain cells on it.
