103: Chapter 103 The Arrival of Two Beauties
The crisp and pleasant chirping of birds outside the guesthouse failed to wake Choi Sulli from her sleepiness.
With eyelids that were clearly swollen, she sluggishly walked out of the bedroom, her cheeks flushed with a rosy hue.
Just as she reached the living room, she was caught red-handed by Victoria Song, who was coming out with breakfast.
Victoria Song saw through the root of the problem at a glance. She slammed the tray onto the dining table with a 'thud,' her gaze instantly becoming sharp.
Turning her head, she roared at Ji-Jun, who had just entered the guesthouse: "Liu Zijun! You beast! She's still just a child who barely reached adulthood! If this were China, I would definitely call the police and have you arrested!"
The voice wasn't loud, but it reached the ears of everyone who had just gotten out of bed.
Luna was rubbing her eyes as she walked into the living room. Hearing this, she couldn't help but let out a 'pfft' and burst into laughter. She quickly covered her mouth, but she still couldn't hide the mirth in her eyes.
Choi Sulli's face instantly turned bright red, truly becoming like a ripe peach.
She subconsciously shrank behind Krystal Jung, pulling on her hem and defending herself in a small voice: "unnie, it's not what you think..."
"It's not what I think? Look at your eyelids, and then look at your face—it's as red as can be!"
Victoria Song stood with her hands on her hips, fuming with anger.
Then she roared at Ji-Jun again: "Liu Zijun, I'm warning you, if anything happens to Sulli, I really won't be easy on you!"
After the scolding, she couldn't help but mutter another curse under her breath.
"This is truly driving me crazy!"
Ji-Jun helplessly rubbed the bridge of his nose. He stepped forward to ruffle Choi Sulli's hair while smiling at Victoria Song: "Sister Qian, don't be so angry. I'll take responsibility for her."
"How about this! Shall I introduce a boyfriend to you?"
Victoria Song threw the tissue box in front of her directly at him and cursed: "Liu Zijun, are you looking for death?"
Krystal watched Ji-Jun speechlessly and whispered: "Truly thick-skinned!"
Meanwhile, Amber Liu and Luna laughed even harder.
"I'm warning you again, if you dare to mistreat Sulli, I don't care how powerful your background is, I won't let you off!"
Krystal also glanced at Choi Sulli behind her with a complex expression, but she still said to Victoria Song: "unnie, let's eat first. It's getting late."
Only then did Victoria Song give a cold snort and stop pursuing the matter, though she still gave Ji-Jun a fierce glare that seemed to say, 'You just wait.'
Breakfast ended in a slightly awkward yet lively atmosphere. Everyone briefly packed the essential luggage.
Ji-Jun and Han Jaeran walked in front carrying the suitcases, while the five girls followed behind. Choi Sulli was stared at by Victoria Song the whole way, not daring to have much interaction with Ji-Jun, only able to communicate secretly with her eyes.
Then the young girl secretly let out a smile.
As the car drove toward Wellington Airport, Choi Sulli couldn't help but ask on the way: "Oppa, aren't we going out to play? Why are we going to the airport?"
Ji-Jun kept it a mystery, his eyes full of smiles.
"You'll know when we get there. I guarantee you won't be disappointed."
"There's something to take care of at the airport. Once that's handled, we'll set off."
Everyone arrived at the airport filled with curiosity. Ji-Jun didn't go directly to check-in; instead, he led everyone to the waiting area of the international arrivals exit.
Ji-Jun explained: "We're waiting for two people here. Once they arrive, we'll leave together."
Choi Sulli blinked in confusion: "Waiting for who? Does Oppa have other friends in New Zealand?"
Ji-Jun smiled without answering, merely looking toward the exit.
Indeed, after just a few minutes, two familiar figures appeared at the exit—it was Im Yoona and Son Ye-jin.
Im Yoona wore a light-colored casual jacket with her long hair tied in a high ponytail. Her face showed the fatigue of travel, yet it couldn't hide the joy in her eyes.
Meanwhile, Son Ye-jin wore a simple dress with a thin knit cardigan over it, still looking gentle and elegant.
"Yoona Unnie! Yejin Unnie!"
Choi Sulli recognized them at a glance, waved excitedly, and rushed straight over.
The other members of f(x) were also stunned. Amber Liu said in surprise: "Wow! It's Senior Yoona and Senior Son Ye-jin! Why are they here?"
Victoria Song cursed: "Why else? That scumbag must have called them over!"
Im Yoona and Son Ye-jin hadn't expected the other members of f(x) to be there besides Sulli. Their faces instantly flushed, and they smiled somewhat sheepishly.
Im Yoona said with a slight awkwardness: "We... we are also here in New Zealand for a vacation, of course."
Her gaze subconsciously drifted toward Ji-Jun, filled with a hint of joy and dependence.
Son Ye-jin also nodded and greeted everyone gently: "It's wonderful to see you all again."
Krystal simply nodded at the two as a greeting. Inside, however, she felt a bit uncomfortable.
Fortunately, she had already figured things out for herself.
Han Jaeran, meanwhile, stayed in the back like a wise old man, looking as if he only lacked a handful of melon seeds to enjoy the show.
Ji-Jun stepped forward, gave Im Yoona and Son Ye-jin a hug, and said: "It's been a long trip. We'll set off immediately."
Im Yoona asked curiously: "Set off? Where are we going, Oppa?"
Ji-Jun smiled and said: "You'll know when you get there."
Then he waved to someone not far away.
Soon, a staff member wearing a black suit and a headset walked over and said respectfully: "Mr. Liu, everything is ready. Please follow me."
Everyone followed the staff member through the airport's VIP passage, all the way to a helipad in a corner of the airport.
When they saw the private helicopter on the pad with its sleek silver-white body and smooth lines, everyone was stunned, their mouths hanging open wide enough to fit an egg.
Luna's eyes widened as she said in disbelief: "This... this is a private helicopter?"
Amber Liu also said excitedly: "Oh my god, Joon oppa, is this your helicopter? This is too cool!"
Choi Sulli pulled on Ji-Jun's arm, her eyes full of admiration.
Im Yoona and Son Ye-jin were also somewhat surprised. They knew Ji-Jun's family background was unusual, but they hadn't expected it to be luxurious to this extent.
Just then, Kim Ji-yeon walked over from beside the helicopter, holding several documents. She walked up to Ji-Jun and said respectfully: "BOSS, the helicopter inspection is complete and it can take off at any time. Here are the flight plan and relevant information about the destination for your review."
"BOSS?"
That title was like a thunderclap exploding in everyone's ears.
Im Yoona and the members of f(x) looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion.
Because they also knew Kim Ji-yeon—wasn't she Kira's assistant?
Why would she call Ji-Jun 'BOSS'?
Son Ye-jin was also stunned, her gaze toward Ji-Jun becoming more searching.
Luna suddenly asked: "Joon oppa, why does Kim Ji-yeon unnie call you BOSS? What exactly is your identity?"
Choi Sulli just smiled foolishly, because she had already guessed it long ago.
Victoria Song also frowned and asked: "Liu Zijun, tell the truth. Who exactly are you? What is your relationship with JS Investment Company?"
She had vaguely guessed before that Ji-Jun wasn't simple. The sudden improvement in f(x)'s resources and T-ara's vindication were all inextricably linked to JS Investment, and Kim Ji-yeon, as someone from JS Investment, had always been by Kira's side.
She had appeared a few times over the past few days. At first, they thought she had been sent by the company, but now that she directly called him BOSS, the answer seemed ready to come out.
