Chapter 55: 54 The line of text behind the certificate
Bar.
Park Jiyeon looked at the marriage certificate on the last page, her brows furrowed tightly, her brain searching rapidly for which year, month, and day she had signed this kind of "brainless contract".
But no matter how she thought about it, she couldn't find any memory related to the boy in front of her.
However, there was one point that made her breathe a sigh of relief, which was that this thing was obviously just for fun.
An "agreement" printed on A4 paper was neither the look of a formal marriage certificate in Huaxia nor the style of the Peninsula.
What was truly surprising was probably just the name and fingerprint she had signed on the paper.
Thinking of this, Park Jiyeon looked at Xian Enjing beside her with some amusement. "Unnie, do you have any impression of this thing I signed?"
"No, it should have been signed around the time we went over there to develop, right?"
Xian Enjing, who was asked, leaned over and looked at it for a few times, then shook her head as well.
She didn't remember either, just guessed a time period based on the image in the photos earlier.
"I don't remember either. Things from more than ten years ago, what I can remember now is just running back and forth in Huaxia during that time, either song meetings or evening parties, either evening parties or commercial performances, never stopping from morning till night."
Recalling the life at that time, Park Jiyeon still couldn't help but have a kind of emotion, then thought of something, and hurriedly looked at Lin Xiuyuan who took out this booklet.
The latter smiled, flipped back to the previous pages, and pointed to the time mark in the lower right corner. "There is a time here."
Pei Xiuzhi and Xian Enjing also curiously leaned over.
Sure enough, several photos were marked with time, ranging from 2013 to 2016, but the later ones were blank.
Looking at those yellowed but clear photos, Park Jiyeon raised her slender fingers and gently brushed over the young self in the photo.
"Ten years of time, it seems I really forgot a lot of things. But you saved this booklet really well, it looks like it was just freshly made."
Krystal, who had been quiet and didn't make a sound, after hearing this sentence, wished she could roll her eyes at Lin Xiuyuan and tell Park Jiyeon: Can it not be fresh? The time this booklet and the photos inside were made is guaranteed not to exceed a week.
However, sensible women will not expose men's lies. If there is anything, talk about it after closing the door, and still have to give the other party some face outside.
And Lin Xiuyuan explained, "Mm, I plastic-sealed it directly when I got it, and then recently when I was decorating the tavern, I found this booklet at home, so I plastic-sealed it again."
Finally, he added softly, "People and things you like are always worth saving well."
Krystal rolled her eyes again silently.
But this sentence made Park Jiyeon lower her head and laugh softly, looking at the boy behind the bar with gentle eyes.
Thinking of the other party's age more than ten years ago, thinking of the appearance of an ignorant junior high school student infatuated with her, the smile and affinity between her brows became thicker and thicker, and she smiled beautifully. "Thank you for your liking back then. If it weren't for your support back then, we wouldn't have known what to do, right, Unnie."
The latter sentence, Park Jiyeon asked while looking at Xian Enjing.
"Mm, even until today, the fans in Huaxia are still supporting us, so... thank you for your liking."
Listening to Xian Enjing's sincere and emotional answer, the 'liar' Lin Xiuyuan was still too young, his face wasn't thick enough, and he actually felt a sense of guilt.
So his eyes drifted to Krystal on the side, intending to let her save him.
As a result, Krystal turned around directly, looked at Jessica on the sofa behind, and walked over. "Unnie, how is it, the drink is not bad, right?"
Watching that departing back, Lin Xiuyuan laughed, and while withdrawing his gaze, he bumped into the smiling eyes of Park Jiyeon and the others.
He hurriedly lowered his head, reached out and picked up the mixed cocktail drink and pushed it to Park Jiyeon. "That, you can try my craft, evaluate it, see if it's suitable for opening a tavern."
Although Park Jiyeon didn't remember at all what intersection she had with this little boy back then, the things in this booklet were so real that they couldn't be denied.
The writing was hers, and the photos were also her.
So subconsciously, she had already begun to have some good feelings for him. "Don't worry, as my fan, even if you don't make it well, I will say it's good against my will."
"That's not good for progress, it will be troublesome if you lose money then." Lin Xiuyuan laughed.
Park Jiyeon continued to laugh, "Then I will come to patronize more in the future, bring a few friends, it will always guarantee you won't lose money."
At this time, Lin Xiuyuan was slightly stunned and looked at Krystal on the sofa side again.
She didn't mention the membership system?
However, Lin Xiuyuan, who had experienced the embarrassment in 2013, was not so rash this time.
Seeing that several people were obviously unaware, he didn't rush to break it, intending to wait until everyone left before explaining slowly.
And after this small episode, his relationship with several girls could be considered to have drawn closer.
Although it couldn't be called private familiarity, at least he could naturally join the topic, no longer just responding passively, and no longer receiving polite responses.
Even if he couldn't explore personal private matters, he could at least chat shallowly about some recent situations and news.
Soon, the small tavern was divided into two small teams.
On one side was the bar, Lin Xiuyuan was surrounded by Park Jiyeon, Xian Enjing, and Pei Xiuzhi, chatting and laughing.
On the other side was the sofa, accompanied by Krystal, Jessica, and Jennie.
The two small groups did not interfere with each other, quietly tasting wine, eating fruits, and enjoying a rare relaxing time.
Until Jennie was about to leave and said casually that she would come over to sit when she had time next time, Krystal then mentioned the membership system of this tavern.
So Lin Xiuyuan, as the boss, became the center of attention again.
"Membership system?" Pei Xiuzhi's eyes lit up, excited. "Private tavern, this is good, I like this."
She had always preferred a quiet private space, and having a membership system could avoid being disturbed by outsiders, which was exactly what she wanted.
As a result, Krystal just said, "Don't be happy too early, you have to get that guy Lin Xiuyuan to nod. He told me that to join, you have to meet some conditions: down and out but rich, beautiful and sexy, and must be the kind of little rich woman who wants to continue tossing her life."
After speaking, she looked at Xiuzhi meaningfully. "Simply put, Xiuzhi, you're directly out, because you've never been down and out."
As Pei Xiuzhi, who was a big heroine life script, she really hadn't been down and out at all from birth to debut to now.
At the same time, Lin Xiuyuan, who heard her words, widened his eyes.
He remembered that he only told Zheng Xiuyan this sentence, how did it come out of Krystal's mouth now.
Wow, that big-mouthed monster...
The rest of the people, after listening to Krystal's words, looked at Lin Xiuyuan one after another, waiting for his explanation.
Lin Xiuyuan simply pointed to the sign that had long been hung on the door lintel. "'Jieyou Small Tavern', when I opened this shop, I wanted to give people who have troubles and worries in their lives a rare private space. As for people with a full life, perhaps they don't need this place."
As soon as this was said, everyone's eyes flickered, and their eyes had different emotions, but no one said anything more.
After Jennie and Jessica left, after a while, evening was approaching, and everyone prepared to say goodbye one after another.
Before leaving, Park Jiyeon hesitated for a moment, but still asked Lin Xiuyuan about the marriage certificate, wanting to take it back.
After all, it was too sensitive, and Xian Enjing and Pei Xiuzhi also felt it should be so.
Only Lin Xiuyuan looked at her strangely, and without refusal, took out the booklet again, pulled out the last plastic-sealed certificate and handed it to Park Jiyeon.
As a result, a few seconds later, a burst of laughter came from Xian Enjing's mouth.
"Daebak, hahaha, these words are indeed like what Jiyeon would say before."
Pei Xiuzhi and Krystal beside her also laughed, but not as exaggeratedly.
It turned out that when she took the certificate, Park Jiyeon, who found that there were words on the back, subconsciously flipped it over, and saw a line of words clearly.
