Reboot the heyday

Suzy's sudden direct approach caught Wang Taika off guard.

But having seen his share of storms, he wasn't flustered. Wang Taika simply turned to look at Suzy, meeting her curious eyes. He found this intelligent, direct, and even "scheming" woman who was trying to get close to him rather intriguing.

No wonder Suzy's previous boyfriends were all famous male celebrities. Someone who can become a so-called "male god harvester" can't just be good-looking; she definitely possesses a unique charm.

This made Wang Taika somewhat curious about the other person's mental state. For someone like Wang Taika, seeing a beautiful woman now wouldn't actually evoke any strong feelings.

But if you meet someone with a unique mental state, it feels like you've found a treasure.

Of course, most people probably can't understand this kind of psychology, and it's not your problem. But if you really can understand it, then I suggest you learn more about your own mental state.

Wang Taika pondered for a moment, then said in a calm tone, "Okay, then I'll tell you a business secret."

Suzy pursed her lips, knowing the importance of the matter: "If it's this, then forget it."

“It’s okay to tell you, because some things are only secrets before a decision is made. Once a decision is made, no one can stop it.” Wang Taika wasn’t just being polite; he was telling the truth.

Suzy tilted her head and stared at Wang Taika, finding it amusing.

Suzy has seen far too many guys who like to show off in front of girls. But Wang Taika is the only one who doesn't make her feel disgusted.

Because every seemingly boastful thing Wang Taika said was actually the truth. It's just that most of the time, people are deceived by his usual lazy appearance, making him seem easy to get along with. Of course, this doesn't mean he isn't lazy. He is lazy, but he is also undeniably very capable.

Wang Taika said, "The company wants to destroy several music show stages to concentrate resources and make the rules more favorable. You're an idol, what do you think?"

Suzy was somewhat surprised by the news. Although Wang Taika had only briefly mentioned it, Suzy was incredibly clever and instantly understood the implications and potential turmoil it might cause. She took a small breath, her eyes widening slightly, but quickly regained her composure and even smiled gently: "As expected... that's Oppa's style. He either doesn't do anything at all, or when he does, he targets the very core of the pie."

Suzy then thought for a moment and said, "If it were before my debut, I would be very unhappy. But now, it doesn't matter. In the end, it's all about resource monopoly, and this time we've really found the key."

Suzy's opinion was so objective, even just a statement, which surprised Wang Taika: "Don't you think this is very unethical?"

"Morality?" Suzy tilted her head and smiled. "Oppa, please stop testing me. No matter what industry you're in, who at the top has completely clean hands? It's just that people are used to not seeing them. I consider myself a kind person. But my kindness can only remain within myself; I don't expect to influence or coerce others."

Wang Taika nodded, "That makes sense."

Suzy then changed the subject: "Actually, I'm quite selfish. Otherwise, even though my relationship with Ji-eun isn't bad, I still made a move on Oppa, hehe."

Upon hearing the mention of Ji-eun, Wang Taika immediately felt guilty and said, "Alright, you can get out of the car now, I really have something to do."

"Hehe, Oppa, I know it's not appropriate to bring her up like this, but we have to face it eventually. Otherwise, it's just self-deception, which is pointless." Suzy said, "What I want is for you to clearly understand my attitude and your attitude, instead of being confused about what choices you have."

Wang Taika was genuinely amused and exasperated: "It's like I agreed to everything you said. Why don't you just tell me what you want, and I'll arrange it accordingly?"

That's a bit hurtful; it's like they're portraying Suzy as a gold digger.

But Suzy wasn't angry. She smiled and said, "That's right, that's exactly it. I brought up Ji-eun, which is something Oppa doesn't want to face right now. Oppa mentioned benefits, and he also wanted to hit my sore spot. Since we both have doubts about each other, it's better to say it now. But Oppa will be disappointed, this isn't my sore spot. Do I need any resources given my current fame?" Her tsundere persona has definitely regressed; now it's all about bold love and directness.

However, Wang Taika did not have the idea of ​​making horizontal comparisons, because many things are not so simple. Cross-temporal comparisons are mechanical, rigid, and inflexible thinking, while we must look at things from a developmental and interconnected perspective.

Simply put, while Suzy's initiative is undeniably irresistible and hard to dislike, the only person capable of making her so proactive is the truly powerful Wang Taika.

Back then, Wang Taika, who was a failure, aimless, depressed, and terrifyingly gloomy, was only loved by the most foolish and arrogant Ji-eun.

That's why Suzy mentioned Ji-eun, which made Wang Taika feel guilty. If it were just because he had too many female confidantes, someone as shameless as Wang Taika wouldn't feel guilty at all.

Perhaps Suzy herself doesn't really want anything from Wang Taika; she just genuinely likes him. But she must have admired him because she liked strong people first.

However, some people like Wang Taika as a person first, and then consider whether their feelings are deep or not. Even if they hesitate along the way, it's because Wang Taika doesn't provide enough security.

Wang Taika has always been able to distinguish right from wrong, so no matter how far he goes, he never forgets his original intentions. Perhaps this is the only redeeming quality in this scoundrel.

So, Wang Taika's emotions immediately calmed down. He had actually been a little confused by Suzy's sudden, direct confession, but now he was completely at ease.

Suzy keenly noticed Wang Taika's emotional change.

There's no way around it. When someone truly cares about your feelings, even the slightest furrow of their brow will trigger a thousand thoughts, making them fear something might have gone wrong. But if someone doesn't care about you, they'd yell at you even if you were about to hang yourself, "Don't you dare swing on the swing in your room!"

Suzy herself admitted to having a side that admires strength, but her feelings for Wang Taika were genuine. That's why she noticed Wang Taika's emotional changes, even if those changes were so subtle.

Contrary to expectations, my performance, even if not perfect, should have been above 80. Although it touched on a sore spot, it was essentially harmless. This minor setback should serve as a starting point for further openness and honesty.

Suzy has a lot of dating experience, but she usually takes the initiative in the end.

But this time was different. He didn't say anything outrageous, but Wang Taika was inexplicably stunned for a second, as if he had gone through a rapid brainstorming session and suddenly had an epiphany!
Yes, it's a sudden realization.

Even though his expression didn't change much, Suzy could clearly sense that Wang Taika's emotions were different from the previous second, as if he had become a different person.

It's like he's sick; it's really unpredictable, it's just too interesting!
For Suzy, men are like chewing gum. No matter if they're national heartthrobs or tall, handsome oppas, they're all interesting at first, which is why she decides to be with them and start dating.

But it won't be long before it gets boring, and you realize that aside from good looks, everyone's inner self is pretty much the same. What's the use of being handsome? In the end, you can only spit it out like chewing gum.

But this time, Suzy realized that Wang Taika was completely different from Lee Min-ho and Lee Dong-wook in the past.

Because this person... he's sick, you know! This person is sick! You can't figure him out, you absolutely can't figure him out.

This mental state is hilarious! I have to find a way to win this person over; it's too much fun. (End of Chapter)
