Chapter 195 Sending the Child to School
"That's fine," Zhang Yuanying's eyes lit up. "Dad is sending me to school!"
Even if it's for a variety show, wouldn't it still be interesting for the CEO to personally send her to school?
"Then let's depart promptly at eight tomorrow," Jiang Shu said.
"Okay!"
Liu Zhimin looked at Zhang Yuanying, then at Jiang Shu.
"Then I'm going too."
"What are you going to do?" Before Jiang Shu could speak, Zhang Yuanying looked at Liu Zhimin and asked.
"Play!" Liu Zhimin stretched her neck and said stubbornly.
"You're not allowed to go!"
"I'm the Ouni, I can go wherever I want!" Liu Zhimin hummed.
"Dad!" Zhang Yuanying widened her eyes, seeking help from Jiang Shu.
"I don't care," Jiang Shu said with a laugh. "You two can discuss it yourselves. Anyway, even if Bae Joo-hyun comes, there's still enough room in the car."
"Ah! Dad is playing favorites!"
"Dad is being fair and just," Liu Zhimin said proudly.
The first time she called him "Dad" felt very embarrassing, but the more she said it, the more natural it became.
Indeed, some things are either zero times or countless times.
"Alright, you two can argue slowly later," Jiang Shu called for them to help out. There were several rooms to prepare.
He and Bae Joo-hyun didn't live together, so four rooms needed to be prepared.
The three upstairs were busy, and Bae Joo-hyun downstairs was also busy. Each person was performing their duties, filming the show.
...
The next day, 7:50 AM.
The cameraman, carrying his camera, followed Jiang Shu to Zhang Yuanying's room door and knocked.
"Xiao Yuan, time to get up," Jiang Shu called out.
There was no movement in the room.
"Xiao Yuan," Jiang Shu knocked again and called out.
"Wouldn't it be better to just go in and see?" Liu Zhimin's voice came from the adjacent room.
"You're awake?" Jiang Shu looked at Liu Zhimin in surprise.
Liu Zhimin yawned.
"I woke up when you and Mom were washing up."
"Is that so?" Jiang Shu nodded, then knocked on the door again. "Xiao Yuan, time to get up, eat breakfast, and go to school."
"She didn't lock the door, just go straight in."
"Hey, don't," Jiang Shu reached out and pulled Liu Zhimin back. "Xiao Yuan is a big girl now. It's better not to enter her room without her permission."
Liu Zhimin raised an eyebrow, glanced at Jiang Shu, and didn't say anything more.
Just as Jiang Shu was about to knock again, the door opened.
Zhang Yuanying, wearing pajamas and rubbing her eyes, appeared before them.
"What's wrong, CEO?"
Bang!
"Hiss!"
Zhang Yuanying, who was still a bit groggy, instantly sobered up, glaring at Liu Zhimin.
How could she dodge a zero-frame attack?
"What CEO, this is Dad!" Liu Zhimin said calmly.
Zhang Yuanying gritted her teeth, looking at Liu Zhimin. Why had she started resisting lately?
How annoying!
"It's eight o'clock. Hurry up and wash up, eat breakfast, and I'll take you to school."
"Oh." Zhang Yuanying glared at Liu Zhimin, reached up to scratch her head, and turned to go back to her room to change.
Bae Joo-hyun had gotten up early to prepare breakfast. In such a variety show, her role was more like a housekeeper than a mother.
After all... Jiang Shu couldn't possibly be the one serving everyone, could he?
Status determined position. It seemed she was the one who had to do these things, and wasn't this also an opportunity to raise her status?
Ultimately, neither Liu Zhimin nor Bae Joo-hyun followed along. Only Jiang Shu drove Zhang Yuanying alone.
The production team also didn't arrange for anyone to follow. The content of this first shoot was actually almost complete. The second shoot would take place when Liu Zhimin debuted again. Now, only the final shoot was needed.
Zhang Yuanying sat in the passenger seat and immediately felt the small space.
"Dad, how do I adjust the seat?" Zhang Yuanying searched for the seat adjustment button.
Here.
Jiang Shu pointed to the location for Zhang Yuanying.
"The space here is too small," Zhang Yuanying complained.
"Because your mother sat here yesterday," Jiang Shu said with a smile. "Your mother's short legs can't compare to your long legs."
"Hehe." Zhang Yuanying certainly wouldn't say that, but once Jiang Shu said it, she could agree.
"Buckle your seatbelt." Seeing Zhang Yuanying not move, Jiang Shu reminded her.
"Oh, oh."
"Do you know where my school is?" Zhang Yuanying asked while buckling her seatbelt.
"Yes, it's not like I haven't picked you up before," Jiang Shu said casually.
When Zhang Yuanying was still a trainee, Jiang Shu had passed by her school a few times and picked her up to take her back to the company.
It's just that the car back then wasn't this one, otherwise she wouldn't have said that yesterday.
"Oh right, I totally forgot." With Jiang Shu's reminder, Zhang Yuanying also remembered the times Jiang Shu had picked her up before.
"Time really flies, 2019 is almost over again," Zhang Yuanying sighed.
"A little adult," Jiang Shu chuckled. "It sounds really awkward coming from a fifteen-year-old kid like you."
"Children can also have life insights! Adults are forbidden from discriminating against minors!" Zhang Yuanying hummed twice.
"How could that be?" Jiang Shu looked at the road ahead. "Minors can reveal a lot of inspiration that adults can't imagine. When I write songs, I sometimes gain a lot of insights from young people."
"Is that so?" Zhang Yuanying blinked. "Then when will Dad write a song for me?"
"You want to solo?"
"Not really, I just simply want Dad to tailor a song for me," Zhang Yuanying said with a smile.
Thanks, I can't.
"We'll talk about it later," Jiang Shu said perfunctorily. "If you really want one, go find your senior sister Jeon Soyeon and have her write it for you."
"Oh right." Zhang Yuanying's eyes immediately lit up. "Come to think of it, Jeon Soyeon Ouni is my senior sister."
Jeon Soyeon's name was well-known in the industry, initially famous only as Jiang Shu's student, but as ITZY's unscientific popularity continued to grow, Jeon Soyeon, the true overall producer of ITZY, also came into the industry's view.
Compared to Teacher Jiang Shu, who could write songs in any style and effortlessly produce any type of music, Jeon Soyeon's style was quite unique, and her musical style could be easily recognized.
Many entertainment companies whose styles aligned with hers were interested.
Jiang Shu rarely wrote songs for outsiders, but Jeon Soyeon might not be the same!
"You can go find her, but don't use my name," Jiang Shu reminded her.
If Zhang Yuanying used his name to find Jeon Soyeon, with Jeon Soyeon's personality, she would really write a song for her immediately.
Jeon Soyeon was busy with ITZY's fourth album, so it was better not to add to her workload.
"Oh." Zhang Yuanying responded regretfully, clearly having indeed thought of doing that.
