Chapter 212: Ya Lin Yun'er, I
July 2013.
At noon, in a newly opened shopping mall in Busan, the enthusiastic atmosphere almost made the air at the scene full of restlessness.
Whether it was the periphery of the mall or the railings upstairs, they were packed full, the whole scene seemed to be making final preparations for the upcoming Girls' Generation fan signing event.
On the central stage of the mall, the huge LED screen flickered with Girls' Generation's promotional posters, and the colorful lights projected onto the stage, adding a bit of dazzling atmosphere to the venue.
And with a crisp announcement from the host, the noise at the scene gradually faded, and the fans' nervous and excited eyes were all focused on the stage.
"Hello everyone, welcome to Girls' Generation's signing event, today's event will definitely make everyone have a great time."
The host's voice was clearly transmitted to every corner through the audio.
Then, with fierce applause and cheers, the members of Girls' Generation finally appeared.
Because it was a signing event, everyone didn't wear any stage costumes, but wore their normal private clothes on stage under the suggestion of the team stylist.
As the leader, Kim Taeyeon walked in the front, followed by Zheng Xiuyan, Lin Xiaolu, Sunny, and others.
Everyone walked toward the signing table quickly while smiling and waving to the fans.
And with their appearance, the atmosphere at the scene reached a climax, and when the host enthusiastically introduced each member's name, the fans' screams at the scene followed one after another.
A few minutes later, the signing event officially began.
Looking at the long queue, each figure held their own albums and posters, and the excited mood was on their faces.
All fans obviously cherished this opportunity to contact their idols at close range, and at the same time, when they came to the signing table one after another, the members of Girls' Generation signed their names on the posters and albums very patiently.
And chatted with fans from time to time, leaving warm smiles and kind greetings.
Just in this process, an excited girl walked to Lin Xiaolu, she almost jumped up, her eyes flashing with excited light.
"YoonA Unnie, I really like you so much, wait for the drama "The Heirs" you starred in to be broadcast, this drama will definitely be popular, and you will definitely be able to get the Best Actress award."
As soon as her words fell, the fans around nodded one after another.
Only Lin Xiaolu smiled a bit uneasily, but didn't forget to answer the other party, "Hmm, thank you for your liking, but let's wait until the TV series is broadcast to talk about this question, let's talk about something else."
Speaking of this, her tone paused, looking at the fan girl in front of her with some amusement, staring at the clothes on her body, "For example, you wearing a school uniform, how can you come out to participate in our fan signing event today."
Junior high school uniform, Lin Xiaolu knew at a glance that the other party had sneaked out.
So in the next two minutes, this little girl was taught a lesson in ideological education by Lin Xiaolu, until her little face was flushed.
Lin Xiaolu then stood up with a smile and hugged the other party, finally whispering, "Study hard."
That girl didn't expect to have such a benefit, was surprised and crazy, and then nodded hard, "Hmm, I know, Unnie, I won't skip class next time."
After this girl, many fans behind also said similar words, each of them was wishing for Lin Xiaolu's new drama to explode.
At this time, Cui Xiuying and Xu Xian standing on the side couldn't help but exchange a look, and they both had some complex emotions in their hearts.
Although they were also members of Girls' Generation, this recognition and popularity in the entertainment industry were obviously more concentrated on Lin Xiaolu.
Especially the unbroadcast popularity of "The Heirs" made Lin Xiaolu's influence reach a new high compared to her previous popularity.
And in the subsequent signing time, the fans' enthusiasm didn't fade because of this, but became even higher.
As the signing event progressed, more and more fans began to surround Girls' Generation, one after another, until the end of the signing event.
Until the end of the signing event, the atmosphere in the mall still carried a trace of heat that hadn't dissipated.
With the official end of the event, the fans also left with satisfaction, each carrying their own signed albums and posters, leaving the mall with smiles on their faces.
And the members of Girls' Generation, after signing for two hours in a row, finally walked back to the backstage slowly, breathed a sigh of relief, and could rest for a while.
During the rest period, everyone's laughter sounded in the backstage, discussing the interesting fans encountered at the scene and various small episodes at the signing event.
"That girl is really too cute, actually wearing a school uniform and sneaking out, hahaha!"
Sunny said with a smile, "When she was taught by YoonA, she seemed a bit nervous, almost couldn't speak."
"YoonA knows how to persuade learning by turning corners, instead of blaming, it's also very powerful."
Zheng Xiuyan added, her tone revealing a hint of smile.
Just when everyone was laughing and chatting, Cui Xiuying next door suddenly stopped the topic of chatting with Tiffany and cast her gaze on Lin Xiaolu standing not far away.
Then she cleared her throat slightly, and opened her mouth with a casual yet slightly complex tone, "By the way, YoonA, just now at the signing event, I kept hearing fans say that your drama "The Heirs" has started preparation, when are you going to start filming?"
Lin Xiaolu was stunned for a moment, then showed a faint smile, and the look at Cui Xiuying was also a bit subtle.
"Hmm, the specific filming time has not been determined, I am not very clear, now it is also notified by the crew, temporarily just looking at the script."
Cui Xiuying nodded slightly, the corners of her mouth carried a hint of smile, but her eyes seemed to vaguely reveal a kind of emotion that was not very clear.
"It's really good, to be able to receive the script of writer Kim Eun-sook, it hasn't started broadcasting yet, and the popularity is already so high."
"Unnie, don't talk nonsense." Lin Xiaolu smiled slightly and waved her hand lightly.
"By the way, YoonA, who introduced this script to you, that bistro owner?"
"?"
When mentioning this point, Lin Xiaolu and Zheng Xiuyan stopped their voices one after another and turned to look at Cui Xiuying.
And Kim Taeyeon, who was standing on the side, caught this scene and keenly noticed the change in atmosphere.
So she sighed secretly and stood out quickly, smiling and breaking this subtle tension.
"Alright, everyone worked hard. We don't need to rehearse when we return to Seoul tonight, but we still have to continue rehearsing tomorrow, after all, the Taipei tour is right in front of us, and we still have many stages that need to be practiced." Kim Taeyeon's voice sounded, mobilizing everyone's attention easily.
Sunny responded first, "Really? That's really great, I'm going to go back and have a good sleep, play my game."
"I also want to make up for sleep."
"Ah, going to tour again, so tired."
Then other members also shifted their attention one after another, starting to discuss the upcoming Taipei tour and rehearsal arrangements.
Although everyone's corners of the mouth carried smiles, they couldn't help but reveal some tacit emotions in their eyes.
Everyone knew clearly that the subtle change carried by those words just now was not accidental, but a certain imbalance deep in the heart began to appear.
But at this subtle moment, a pleasant laughter sounded abruptly.
"YoonA, did you see just now? So many people under the stage are wearing the styles I designed, hahaha, I said long ago, as a designer, I already have a certain status in the fashion industry."
"That's pirated, Unnie~" Lin Xiaolu answered.
Zheng Xiuyan, sitting on the sofa, crossed her legs, her face full of relaxed smiles.
"It doesn't matter, anyway, I am now willing to let them wear pirated, just be happy. Do you know what my favorite feeling is? It's that others want to make money but dare not do it, fearing being sued by me, and finally can only watch those money slip away from the fingers."
After she finished saying this, she seemed to feel that it was not stimulating enough, and pulled Lin Xiaolu to say it together.
"By the way, has Enjing already won that supporting role? I heard that the supporting role's drama is heavier than the heroine outside."
Lin Xiaolu was stunned, just wanted to look to the side, but subconsciously stabilized her head and didn't look at Cui Xiuying over there.
But she used a somewhat helpless and funny look to look at Zheng Xiuyan here, and finally nodded lightly, "Hmm, heard that it has been discussed to the end, there should be no problem."
"Hmm~ really good, then you guys can go to work together." Zheng Xiuyan's tone carried a hint of meaningful teasing.
Cui Xiuying was stunned, her eyes slightly stunned.
Like her were the two or three figures beside her, everyone heard these two paragraphs of Zheng Xiuyan, and the content and information made them hard to accept.
Afternoon, approaching evening.
After returning to Seoul, Lin Xiaolu was driving by herself, so she could drive back by herself.
And Zheng Xiuyan directly expressed that she wanted to hitch a ride, Sunny scanned a circle with her eyes, and then raised her hand to indicate that she wanted a seat.
On the way to the parking lot, Zheng Xiuyan looked at Sunny unceremoniously and smiled, "Sun-gyu, aren't you afraid that we will become a small team in other people's mouths?"
Sunny smiled slightly, "If I don't join, then you and YoonA will really become a small team."
This made Zheng Xiuyan couldn't help but be stunned, only then did she realize that Sunny joined because of this reason, and became the "lubricant" and buffer layer in their team.
Thinking of this, Zheng Xiuyan looked at her deeply, "Why are you being a good person every day."
Sunny, who was walking beside her, looked at this Zheng Xiuyan who was becoming more and more open after hearing this, "Xiuyan, what's wrong with you lately, I feel that you are becoming different, the gunpowder smell is getting stronger and stronger."
"What change? Just lazy to pretend anymore. Pretending to be here and there, in the end, I will still be stabbed a few times, why not be more open?"
Zheng Xiuyan carried her bag, even if she was walking indoors at the airport, she didn't avoid answering.
"Unnie, you can be open, don't pull me into the water, I could have pretended not to know, so awkward."
On the other side, Lin Xiaolu, who was chatting with Sulli, suddenly looked up, gave Zheng Xiuyan a look a bit depressed.
However, Zheng Xiuyan didn't care, "What's wrong, I'm speaking for you. Didn't see Cui Xiuying almost point at your nose and say you climbed a high branch, I just said a few words about them in a roundabout way, you still say I'm wrong, I'm a bit sad, YoonA."
Sunny was stunned, hard to believe that Zheng Xiuyan actually said the words that everyone knew well.
And she was still here?
What's the situation, this is dragging her into the car too?
She just wanted to come over and make up the number.
Just when Sunny was thinking wildly, the three also came to Lin Xiaolu's car, and then sat in the car one after another, and after starting, drove straight to Seoul.
"Unnie, do you have any places to go? Say it in advance, don't return when I send you to the place."
Lin Xiaolu asked while driving.
After hearing Lin Xiaolu's words, Sunny immediately indicated, "Send me to Mapo District, a friend opened a game hall there, go play."
For Sunny's opening, Zheng Xiuyan couldn't help but think of the things Lin Xiuyuan mentioned when chatting with her a few days ago.
"Speaking of games, that guy Xiuyuan told me a few days ago that he planned to get a few game consoles in the bistro, and also planned to buy a big screen to put there, so that we wouldn't have nothing to do when drinking and chatting."
"It's his style," Lin Xiaolu smiled, "But is there any room in the bistro?"
"I don't know about this."
Facing Zheng Xiuyan and Lin Xiaolu's relaxed communication, Sunny leaned over from the back seat and asked with curiosity, "Seriously, YoonA, Xiuyan, what is your relationship with that Lin Xiuyuan."
"What, want to say we climbed a high branch like Cui Xiuying." Zheng Xiuyan turned back and smiled.
"Ya..." Sunny frowned.
Lin Xiaolu hurriedly intervened with a smile, "Sun-gyu Unnie, don't listen to Xiuyan Unnie's nonsense, she's teasing you, but we don't have any relationship with Xiuyuan, just normal friends."
The next second, Zheng Xiuyan pouted, "Whose friends are kissing each other."
Then Lin Xiaolu's steering wheel was almost unstable, and she denied it repeatedly, "Ah, Unnie, don't talk nonsense, I didn't, I don't have."
And Sunny, who captured some gossip, immediately lit up, and the look from the rearview mirror to Lin Xiaolu became more and more.
Once twice three times, until Lin Xiaolu sent her to Mapo District to get off, she still looked at the distant car with reluctance, still wanting more.
At the same time, the atmosphere in the car in front had already exploded, Lin Xiaolu was accusing Zheng Xiuyan very depressed, "Ah, Unnie, how can you say these things in front of Sun-gyu Unnie."
"Say it, it's not important information, give Sun-gyu some shock by the way, save her from messing around as a good person. When the group has a meeting with the room manager next time, I will help Sun-gyu grab some resources, why not give it to Sun-gyu."
"It's Sun-gyu Unnie who doesn't want it." Lin Xiaolu added.
As a result, she was met with Zheng Xiuyan's eye-roll, "She doesn't want it, can we not give it, anyway, giving it to others is also a waste, compared to the enemy, I might as well give it to Sun-gyu."
Lin Xiaolu, who was driving, sighed, "But Unnie, if you do this, the atmosphere in the team will be bad again."
Zheng Xiuyan responded lightly, "It's like the atmosphere has been good lately, if it weren't for your script and channel being normal, I don't know if next year's event will be replaced by you."
Zheng Xiuyan tilted her head and looked at Lin Xiaolu.
And Lin Xiaolu expressed helplessly, "I haven't had it before, it's not that exaggerated."
"Before is before, everyone is in the rising period, everyone is twisted into a rope, fully outward. Now everyone has more activities, more free time, and naturally has more thoughts."
When saying these words, Zheng Xiuyan expressed it very easily, but it made Lin Xiaolu's heart surge with a sense of unease.
She didn't believe it, but after hearing it, she couldn't help but be a bit complex.
Fortunately, Zheng Xiuyan continued to add, her tone carrying a bit of comfort, "But YoonA, you don't have to worry, this is filming, not leaving the company, the contract is also signed with the company, so they can't do anything to you."
Lin Xiaolu looked at her, a complex look appeared on her face, and her fingers holding the steering wheel tightened slightly.
She didn't want to tangle with this topic anymore, after all, it was hard to distinguish between true and false, and there was no actual consequence, so she was too lazy to continue to care.
The jealousy and envy in the middle, Lin Xiaolu had long been used to it.
From debut to now, she had experienced too many similar scenes.
After all, popularity top 1, personal activities, endorsements, filming income are all her own.
It's just that this time is a little different from before, that is, Zheng Xiuyan stood up and helped her yin and yang back.
So in the final analysis, Lin Xiaolu was still very happy in her heart.
Not long after, Lin Xiaolu sent Zheng Xiuyan back to her home in Seongnam District, and then drove back to the apartment in Cheongdam-dong.
When walking into the apartment, Lin Xiaolu was still thinking about whether Lin Yun'er was still here, but after opening the door, there was no figure at all.
Then walked
Upon entering the apartment, Lin Xiaolu was still wondering if YoonA might still be there, but when she opened the door, there wasn't a single figure to be seen.
Then she walked into the living room, looked around, and didn't find anything special.
The only abnormality was that the master bedroom door was wide open, and the sofa was a bit messy.
So Lin Xiaolu walked over to the refrigerator, took a few sips of water, and sat on the sofa, intending to find a movie to watch to relax.
And just as she was fumbling around for the remote control, she touched some powdery particles, and the leather sofa felt a bit sticky too.
Without thinking much, Lin Xiaolu found the remote and started watching a movie, even going to get some snacks to eat while watching.
It wasn't until her phone ran out of battery later that she got up and walked into the master bedroom, intending to find a charger.
Then, when she walked into the master bedroom, seeing the messy bedding and pillows all over the floor, she was stunned for a moment, subconsciously thinking they had been robbed.
It wasn't until Lin Xiaolu reached out and patted the bedsheet, touching some granular powder just like before, that she suddenly realized something and widened her eyes.
A moment later, a low roar erupted from her master bedroom.
"Ya~ YoonA, I'll kill you!!!"
