Chapter 349: Time Flies
After a satisfying meal, Wu Haiyuan and Xue Yun bid farewell to Jiang Shu and left on their own.
Jiang Shu then took a car back home, and after a quick wash, he changed into his pajamas and sat on the sofa in the living room.
Shu: I'm home, what's up?
Not even two minutes after Jiang Shu sent the message, a video call request came through.
Jiang Shu grabbed his iPad stand, turned on the tablet, and answered Zhang Yuanying's video call.
The screen flashed, and Zhang Yuanying's figure appeared in the frame.
Zhang Yuanying's face in the frame was much rounder, and the baby fat that hadn't completely faded away gave her a chubby and cute look in the lens, but it was somewhat different from Li Yuanxi's cuteness. While being cute, she also revealed a bit of corresponding flirtatiousness.
Cuteness and flirtatiousness are two completely different feelings, but at this moment, these two feelings coexisted in Zhang Yuanying before his eyes.
"Chairman Oppa!" Zhang Yuanying looked at Jiang Shu in the lens with a smile and called out.
"Are you in the dorm?"
"No, at my own house." Zhang Yuanying said, picking up her phone and circling it around the room, a bedroom that Jiang Shu had never seen before.
Jiang Shu had been to IZONE's dorm quite a few times, and he was quite familiar with the members' rooms.
"Your parents' house or a house you bought yourself?"
"I bought the house last year, right next to the company. There are only two households on each floor, Ahn Yujin and I each have one." Zhang Yuanying explained.
"You two are inseparable." Jiang Shu said with a smile.
He remembered that when Zhang Yuanying and Ahn Yujin were in IVE, the drama of girls scheming against each other was born. At that time, Jiang Shu was stunned, and he almost thought that these good sisters had really turned against each other.
But later he found out that it was just an over-interpretation. These good sisters, who had been friends since IZONE, hadn't changed much.
"Will the new group let us continue to be together?" Zhang Yuanying asked casually. Of course, she was just mentioning it casually and didn't expect Jiang Shu to give her a definite answer.
"Yes."
"Eh?" Zhang Yuanying, who hadn't had any hope, widened her eyes in surprise when she heard Jiang Shu's words.
"I already have plans for the future of the IZONE members. I won't reveal the other destinations, but I can give you and Ahn Yujin a heads-up."
"Not all of you will continue to follow the idol route, but you and Ahn Yujin will continue to follow the idol route, and you two will continue to be in the same girl group."
"Really?!" Zhang Yuanying looked at Jiang Shu in surprise, the joy on her face transmitted through the screen, infecting Jiang Shu.
Facts have proved that happiness is contagious.
"When have I ever lied to you?" Jiang Shu chuckled, "Don't reveal this to Ahn Yujin, that little girl's mouth isn't very tight."
"Okay, I remember!" Zhang Yuanying nodded quickly.
Ahn Yujin wasn't a big mouth, but she wasn't someone who could keep a secret either. She was likely to reveal this kind of news.
If she said it, then the other members of the group would come to Jiang Shu to test the waters.
Too troublesome, so he simply cut off this possibility from the source.
Compared to Ahn Yujin, Zhang Yuanying was undoubtedly more tight-lipped.
As long as Zhang Yuanying didn't want to say it, the news in her stomach would never be revealed.
"Alright, what do you want from me? It can't be to have me chat with you late at night, right?" Jiang Shu leaned on the sofa and asked lazily.
"What's wrong with chatting with me?" Zhang Yuanying put her phone on the bedside table, sat cross-legged on the bed, pressed her ankles with her hands, and swayed her body.
"If you want to chat, go find your good sisters. What's the matter with finding me?" Jiang Shu shrugged his shoulders like a bear.
"Okay, I mainly wanted to ask what kind of activities the company will arrange this year now that I'm an adult." Zhang Yuanying blinked and said.
Jiang Shu raised his eyebrows.
Company arrangement?
She wasn't asking the company at all, she was asking him.
"Let's do it according to the activities when Xiao Liu became an adult." Jiang Shu pretended not to understand Zhang Yuanying's subtext and said with a smile.
"No!" Zhang Yuanying widened her eyes, "What's the point of having the same coming-of-age ceremony!"
"Chairman Oppa! Don't pretend you don't understand!"
Seeing the smile on Jiang Shu's face, Zhang Yuanying knew that she had been tricked by him.
Suddenly, she puffed up her cheeks, and the small bulges on both sides looked like two meat buns.
"What kind of coming-of-age ceremony do you want?" Jiang Shu asked with a smile.
"How can I say it myself? Of course, you have to prepare it, otherwise, where would the surprise come from?"
"Then you have to say a type, otherwise, how would I know what kind of coming-of-age ceremony you want?"
That made sense.
Zhang Yuanying nodded in agreement, and then fell into deep thought.
"I have an idea." Seeing that Zhang Yuanying didn't say anything for a long time, Jiang Shu took the initiative to speak.
"What idea?" Zhang Yuanying stopped thinking when she heard this and asked.
"I'll be your fan for once." Jiang Shu said with a smile.
"Eh?" Zhang Yuanying looked at Jiang Shu curiously, "A fan?"
"I already have an idea, do I need to tell you now?"
"Forget it, forget it." Zhang Yuanying waved her hands repeatedly, "There won't be that feeling of surprise if you say it."
Seeing this, Jiang Shu nodded, took out his phone, and recorded his thoughts, putting them in the memo to avoid forgetting them at that time.
"Did Chairman Oppa participate in Liu Zhimin's coming-of-age ceremony?" Zhang Yuanying looked at Jiang Shu, who was looking down at his phone on the screen, and asked.
"No, it was done according to the normal artist's coming-of-age process at that time. I forgot what I was doing at that time, but I didn't participate anyway." Jiang Shu said without raising his head.
Liu Zhimin's coming-of-age was a long time ago. At that time, he and Liu Zhimin were not particularly familiar, so naturally, there was no such thing as participating in Liu Zhimin's coming-of-age ceremony.
"So, am I the first?" Zhang Yuanying's eyes lit up immediately.
Well, girls want to be the first.
Just…
Jiang Shu's eyes flickered slightly.
Zhang Yuanying's longing for him doesn't seem to have diminished with age.
Jiang Shu had discovered Zhang Yuanying's different feelings for him a long time ago, but at that time, he only regarded it as the throbbing of a young girl in puberty, but now that Zhang Yuanying is almost an adult, her feelings for him still haven't changed much.
Is this right?
This made Jiang Shu a little scratch his head.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Zhang Yuanying looked at Jiang Shu suspiciously. Even through the screen, she could feel the other person's strange gaze, so she asked.
"I'm just lamenting that four years have passed in the blink of an eye, and you've reached the age of adulthood."
