Peninsula Platinum Era

Chapter 235 has disappeared.
"But...but she's still an idol!"

At this moment, Chen Shijun remembered that he was an idol, and he was overjoyed. What kind of serious idol would act like this? If we're talking about the most irresponsible captain, I would definitely vote for you.

"It's not a serious matter, it's just about following your heart and having a relationship."

Holding the girl's soft body in his arms, even though the news of the HYBE executive's late-night rendezvous with the leader of an SM girl group would be explosive, he could just buy it when the time came.

Moreover, everyone is usually very cautious and rarely goes to public places. Chen Shijun would usually take her far away, sometimes even leaving Seoul to go to her hometown in Bundang.

"Oppa is always like this. When your feelings are exposed, you're the one who suffers! How am I supposed to be the leader in front of them now? I wonder what bad things they're saying about me in the dorm."

None of the three women in the dormitory were tight-lipped; they were all the kind of women who loved to gossip, just like me. I didn't really believe they would let go of such a perfect topic.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. I have a gift for Jimin. I couldn't celebrate your birthday with you recently."

Chen Shijun never hesitates to give gifts to girls, especially when he doesn't know what to give. Sparkling jewelry is always a good choice, and no woman would dislike it.

Spring temperatures are gradually rising, and Little Snake was dressed lightly today, wearing a loose jacket over a white fitted t-shirt, the low collar revealing her fair neck.

Slightly revealing a hint of her figure, and then stuffing her chest full, Chen Shijun hung a pendant around Zhimin's neck, which instantly slid into the bottomless cleavage.

"It's disappeared..."

Chen Shijun's words made Zhimin blush so badly she almost exploded. Sometimes he was incredibly unrestrained, but now he was acting like a young girl.

"You're so mean! You're so mean!"

She was holding her head high, enjoying the new gift the man was giving her, but he ended up making fun of her figure.

Although their banter was far more risqué than this, the sudden change of topic still made her a little embarrassed.

"I wouldn't be angry if you hadn't brought this up, but recently some brain-dead fans have been insisting that I have plastic surgery, which really makes me furious."

Zhimin held onto Chen Shijun's hand tightly, trying to make him prove how genuine his benevolence was, and that it was absolutely genuine.

Chen Shijun was also speechless. He wondered if this guy would argue with netizens over this kind of topic. It wouldn't be surprising at all if he did something like this.

Don't they know whether it's genuine or not? What normal idol would get such a large augmentation? It would seriously affect their training and stage performance.

However, this girl is so real that her figure is a bit too slender, and she has lost a lot of weight recently. The first thing that happens when you lose weight is to your conscience.

"But what's the use of my testimony? Can I hold a press conference and vouch for Zhimin's conscience in the name of Director Chen Shijun?"

However, this girl is indeed under a lot of pressure. Compared to the average female idol, the label of "black and red" is something she can never shake off, and the company is happy to see her grow amidst the controversy.

"You're joking with me again, that's really too much!"

Zhimin was trembling with anger, but the thought of not seeing Chen Shijun for a while made her feel sad. She hugged the man's head and stroked his face repeatedly. "Don't be like this. I won't be there for too long. Besides, don't we often go for days without seeing each other?"

Chen Shijun found it strange. When this guy was busy, he would often disappear for ten days or half a month, but he wasn't as clingy as he is now.

Perhaps this model is the best solution under the current circumstances. Relationships between celebrities are often due to the fact that they spend little time together, and more importantly, one party may have time while the other does not. What can truly last is the relationship between a popular idol and a less popular idol, or between two less popular idols.

Chen Shijun was very accommodating to Xiao She's busy schedule. After the hectic debut schedule was over, he would probably have more time to think about the girl's love life and make her even more dependent on him.

“It’s different! At least we’re close by. I’ll feel much more at ease knowing you’re in the same city as me. Besides, there’s a time difference abroad, and I’m afraid I’ll disturb your rest.”

Zhimin felt that she was too good. Who else would consider Chen Shijun so much? Zhihui said that she was just a pretty face who didn't know anything except how to spend money. In reality, she didn't have an eye for beauty like Chen Shijun.

Her clingy manner melted Chen Shijun's heart. He pinched her cheeks, but was a little worried that she would have too much to do tomorrow.

"You should take care of yourself. Your teammates are right. It's definitely not appropriate to run out like this when you have to work tomorrow."

Even if her teammates don't say it, they will feel in their hearts that she doesn't care about the team's safety. It's impossible for her not to have any impact on the team by staying out all night during such an extreme activity.

In addition, as the leader, she might set a bad example. Chen Shijun was afraid that she would run into the iron fist of SM Entertainment. At the very least, if his group had such a clown right after their debut, Director Chen would definitely skin her alive.

"If they knew, they'd be so envious of me!"

She wrapped her arms around the man's neck and rubbed her face against Chen Shijun's chest. It was only because she had removed her makeup today, otherwise she would have smeared a lot of powder all over his shirt.

But what she was thinking about was really strange. Instead of considering the consequences of being found out by the company, she was thinking about how she could show off in front of her teammates.

"I'm not kidding you. Isn't Lee Soo-man known for his iron fist? He'll deal with you then..."

The little snake naturally knew that the man was worried about her, and she was actually very happy, but she also said that it wasn't that serious, as Lee Soo-man was not directly involved in the company's daily operations at the moment.

Besides, even when he was more influential in the past, he still made a mess of things. He can't play the gangster game anymore, so his era naturally came to an end.

From the endless stream of traitors starting with TVXQ, to that disobedient little princess, some EXO members are starting to get restless again, not to mention the streetwear brand owner who is the same age as Chen Shijun.

Chen Shijun thought about it and it seemed to make sense. Lee Soo-man had already become a god of Korean entertainment concepts. In fact, if you look at the longer timeline, you'll find that the more perfect the relevant legal system is, the lower his deterrent power becomes.

In the old days, if an artist disobeyed, they would be beaten to death. The saying "spare the rod and spoil the child" was no joke. Try beating one now.
If it's a large group, there's still room for maneuver. But for a four-member group like Aespa, Jimin is practically safe. She even has executives from rival companies backing her up. She has a future and a way out. What can you use to put pressure on her?

There is no law in South Korea that prohibits female idols from dating executives of rival companies, and the internal dating bans within companies are just verbal gentleman's agreements, not even put in a contract.

So even if things really fall apart, Zhimin felt that as long as Chen Shijun was by her side, she had nothing to fear.

The company is profit-driven and would never ruin an idol out of momentary anger. So, they will most likely use a combination of kindness and severity, eventually reaching a state of just getting by.
