Peninsula: You've been chosen here for producing girl groups.

Is Chapter 143 considered acceptable?

Trainee dormitory.

A three-bedroom apartment.

Kim Yoon-ji is busy packing her luggage.

Her two roommates, Moon Hyun-ah and Kang Eun-hye, stayed by her side, lending a hand from time to time.

"I'm so envious of you," Jiang Enhui hugged Kim Yoonji from behind. "Being able to fly to the capital with him and have him all to yourself for several days must be incredibly wonderful, right?"

Kim Yoon-ji was tidying up clothes and didn't have a free hand.

She stuck her butt out, pushing aside her friend Jiang Enhui: "You have a fever again, don't you?"

"Yoonji~"

Like a piece of chewing gum, Jiang Enhui stuck to her again.

She touched him all over, one hand gently stroking downwards, grazing Kim Yoon-ji's smooth belly, the other hand gently pinching upwards: "What do you think he saw in you?"

"Is it your flexible and powerful waist, or your stunningly curved, peach-shaped buttocks?"

"Um?"

Kim Yoon-ji slapped the groping hand off her chest: "Why can't it be—"

Jiang Enhui said with certainty, "Impossible, absolutely impossible, mine is bigger than yours."

She was completely baffled.

Han Shuo flew to the capital on official business this time. Putting aside the possibility of abusing his power for personal gain, he should have brought more people with him. Why did he only bring two trainees to accompany him?

She didn't care much about who he would bring along.

But she felt very uncomfortable if I didn't take her there.

She couldn't figure it out.

Was it because she was too clingy and fed Han Shuo too much, or had she fallen out of favor and lost her figure advantage?

She had no idea.

One of the lucky ones was Kim Yoon-ji.

Actually, bringing Kim Yoon-ji along is somewhat understandable; it's probably because he's infatuated with this large-framed, tanned, and voluptuous American woman.

The truly surprising choice was another candidate:

Park Hyo-min.

Yes, it's neither the ever-present personal beast Shen Yunzhu nor the recent new favorite Ni Ni.

It was Park Hyo-min.

There wasn't much physical contact between the two of them usually. Park Hyomin was also a bit reserved and not particularly outstanding among the trainees.

The only connection between the two is that Park Hyo-min was commissioned by Han Seok to be a choreographer and model.

However, because Han Shuo has been very busy these days, he hasn't had time to start the choreography and modeling work.

How did we end up hooking up without even realizing it?

She muttered to herself, "Park Hyo-min's methods are really impressive. I won't dare to underestimate her again. You'd better be careful when you go there."

Behind.

Wen Xuanya rolled her eyes.

Big Bear is a brainless, stupid woman.

She was with Han Shuo even before she was with him, so how come she couldn't see that Han Shuo prioritized public affairs over private ones?

Han Seok might have had some personal motives for bringing Park Hyo-min along, but the main reason was undoubtedly that he had something to arrange.

"The board members need to write songs for groups like Girls' Generation and Brown Eyed Girls, so Park Hyo-min might be needed to help refine the choreography."

"That makes sense!"

Kim Yoon-ji turned around, and Hyun-ah pointed at her, saying, "It's only because Hyun-ah unnie has a brain."

"Tch~"

Jiang Enhui and Wen Xuanya are the least compatible.

Wen Xuanya deliberately undermined her, which infuriated her.

She looked at Kim Yoon-ji: "You don't appreciate kindness. I'm doing this for your own good."

"Thinking of me?"

Kim Yoon-ji gestured for Kang Eun-hye to explain more clearly.

Kang Eun-hye glanced at Moon Hyun-ah, as if to show off: "Look at the five members of StarsRookies, they all have short dramas to their name—"

The two short dramas in Cheese Fantasy Theater star Kang Han-na and Shin Yoon-joo, respectively.

"If you want Chinese songs, you have Chinese songs; if not, you at least have a music video. What about you?"

The three people who benefited the most from this Chinese album were Ni Ni, Park So-yeon, and Shin Yoon-joo.

Among them, Ni Ni had the advantage of speaking her native language and was assigned two solo songs, "The Wind Rises" and "Time Thief".

Park So-yeon has a solo song "Hello Tomorrow" and a collaboration song "If Love Is Forgotten", while Shin Yoon-joo's resources remain stable, with a collaboration song "A Little Sweet".

Even Kang Hanna was assigned to a music video.

Of the five members of StarsRookies, only Kim Yoon-ji didn't get anything.

"Look, haven't you fallen behind? You're clearly the most popular of the five, but now you're being somewhat ignored."

"is that so?"

As if frozen in time, Kim Yoon-ji fell into deep thought.

Han Shuo treats her very well and has a clear plan for her acting career.

For example, Bilibili spent a lot of money on her and Ni Ni to remake many music videos by Western singers, which steadily increased her popularity.

Therefore, she completely trusted Han Shuo.

When Jiang Enhui pointed out this problem out of the blue, she suddenly began to doubt whether she had been too lazy.

"What is it?"

Wen Xuanya uttered no great words.

She still had expectations for Jiang Enhui.

After being repeatedly rebuffed, Jiang Enhui grew increasingly embarrassed and annoyed: "Why not?"

Moon Hyun-ah glanced at Kang Eun-hye as if she were showing concern for someone with intellectual disabilities: "You forgot that the director gave the song 'If You Love Me' to Yoon-ji."

She walked over to Kim Yoon-ji, sat on the edge of the bed, and helped Kim Yoon-ji fold her clothes.

"If you ask me, Yoonji might be the first one of us to go solo."

"Yes, I almost forgot about that."

Kim Yoon-ji felt completely refreshed.

With only a limited number of resources available—two female leads in the current short dramas and five singing slots—it's impossible for everyone to have equal opportunities.

It's normal for her to have a bye.

Furthermore, her Chinese is indeed much worse than Shin Yoon-joo and Park So-yeon's, so she might not be able to fully digest this Chinese album.

"Eunhye, don't overthink it," she turned to comfort her friend, "You have to believe that if it's right, he will give us a chance fairly."

Jiang Enhui was so angry that she was trembling.

That damned Wen Xuanya, she's always going against her.

She couldn't stand being sabotaged again and again, so she turned around and walked out in silence.

Hey.

She bumped headfirst into someone's arms.

Those firm muscles, that familiar scent—who else could it be but Han Shuo?

"Did you two argue again?"

Han Shuo looked past Jiang Enhui and into the bedroom.

Jiang Enhui hugged him tightly, whimpering as if throwing a little tantrum.

At this time.

Moon Hyun-ah and Kim Yoon-ji spotted him and happily rushed out.

"Darling (Director)~"

Han Shuo opened his arms.

The two people surrounded them.

One kiss for each person, but Kang Eun-hye got two kisses.

Jiang Enhui clung to him tightly, refusing to speak or explain, just throwing a tantrum. Han Shuo let her be and carried her to the sofa.

"What's wrong with her?"

"They're bickering again~"

Kim Yoon-ji speaks with tact and knows when to stop.

Anyway, Han Shuo knew that the two didn't get along, so she didn't need to cover for them. However, she didn't mention a single specific detail.

"She never gets the better of anyone, and she always manages to provoke Xuan Ya."

Han Shuo hugged her a little tighter.

Gently stroke her tummy.

We must strive to cure the disease.

Jiang Enhui bit her lip.

Two chubby, long legs were draped over the sofa, sending a tingling sensation through me.

Wen Xuanya was very perceptive.

She had no intention of watching Kang Eun-hye undergo fever-reducing surgery, and quickly left the living room, citing that she was doing laundry.

Han Shuo turned to Jin Yunzhi and asked, "What about you? Have you packed your things? We have to go to the airport in an hour."

Kim Yoon-ji understood immediately.

She silently got up to go back to her room.

Suddenly, Jiang Enhui's slightly trembling voice came from behind: "Darling, why didn't you take me to China this time?"

"I'm only staying in the capital for three days this time. What's the point of bringing so many people with me?"

Han Shuo's trip to Beijing was primarily to refine the creative logic of "Drifting North," and incidentally, to film the music video for the song.

The staff is quite small.

"I need to fly back by Saturday night at the latest to prepare for the Busan University anniversary performance. There's no need to bring you guys back and forth."

o

"Yeah?"

Kang Eun-hye tilted her head back and kicked her legs: "Then why did you only bring Yoon-ji and Hyo-min?"

Upon hearing this, Kim Yoon-ji turned around curiously to look.

She wanted to know why it had to be her.

They didn't even bring Shin Yoon-joo, but they brought her along.

Wen Xuanya leaned against the bathroom door frame, secretly eavesdropping.

"You guys are so cunning."

Han Seok waved to Kim Yoon-ji.

The other one trotted over, obediently squatted down beside him, placed its hands on his knees, tilted its chin up, and looked up at him, waiting for an answer.

"The next Korean album will be released in July."

"The initial production is basically finished, and we have moved on to the recording stage. One of the songs needs a female feature, and I want to give it to Yoonji."

"Give me?"

Kim Yoon-ji was overjoyed.

Being able to sing on the same stage as Han Shuo is practically a debut.

She had no way to repay him.

I can only become a shampoo doctor to help wash hair.

She was happy, but Jiang Enhui suffered another blow.

She shouldn't have asked.

If she can't get resources, she'll try to get people.

She hugged Han Shuo with both arms and kissed him.

At the entrance to the restroom.

Wen Xuanya silently closed the door.

Just as she guessed, Kim Yoon-ji's good days were yet to come.

If she stays with Stars Entertainment, she's destined to fall far behind the five members of StarsRookies. It seems her chance still lies with Rainbow Group.

During our next heart-to-heart talk, she should take the initiative to apply to join the Rainbow Group.

Han Shuo was brought back to give her extra tutoring.

Twenty minutes later, Han Shuo pushed the door open and came in: "What are you doing hiding here all by yourself?"

Wen Xuanya went to greet her.

"What are you hiding from? They're waiting for you to come and take a bath here," she said as she helped Han Shuo change. "Let them kiss all they want, it's just to give me the benefit."

Han Shuoxiong picked up Wen Xuanya and put her in the bathtub.

He felt that Moon Hyun-ah must have overheard his arrangements for Kim Yoon-ji.

Given Wen Xuan's proud and ambitious nature, he must have felt quite disappointed.

He held her in his arms: "Xuan Ya, I recently had someone write a suspense novel called 'It's All in That Place'."

"Um?"

Upon hearing this, Wen Xuanya sat up.

The water splashed.

Her beautiful eyes sparkled: "Is it for me?"

Han Shuo nodded, then shook his head: "The female lead has to play two roles, and you might not be able to handle the acting, but you can give the second female lead a try."

"Second female lead it is, I'm not picky."

Wen Xuanya's ambition is good because she is content.

"This will be the first short drama in the Mist Theater. I'll have someone give you the script later. Prepare well. You can also try out the female lead's role."

"Everyone listens to you."

Wen Xuanya sat in Han Shuo's lap.

The air was thick with moisture.

Water splashed everywhere.

Han Shuo leaned back against the edge of the bathtub: "This suspenseful short film is from a female perspective, focuses on the topic of bullying, and has an open ending, so it will be very interesting."

It's 8 PM.

Han Seok, along with Kim Yoon-ji and Park Hyo-min, and a group of staff members, flew to the capital.

Park Hyo-min was sitting next to him.

It was Park Hyo-min's first time flying abroad, and she was quite curious, peering out the window.

They didn't care at all that the exterior was completely black.

Losing interest in looking at it, she leaned closer to him and asked, "Director, are you looking at the script for the music video of 'Drifting to the North'?"

"It seems your Chinese has improved a lot!"

Park Hyomin leaned over and grinned, "Actually, I was just guessing."

"Then you won't get your reward."

"what?"

Park Hyomin pouted her goldfish lips: "How about we do it all over again?"

Han Shuo shook his head: "It's too late."

"What is the reward?"

"The music video for 'Clearly' is finished."

Park Hyomin grabbed Han Seok's arm tightly and pleaded, "I want to see!"

Last week, she participated in the filming of the music video for the song "Mingmingjiu" (明明就), playing the role of Han Shuo's ex-girlfriend. The two had two brief kissing scenes in the music video.

However, the two kissed more than once on set, from multiple camera angles.

This made her feelings for Han Shuo quite complicated.

"What are you looking at?"

Han Shuo's attitude was firm: "I brought you here this time to rehearse a few choreography pieces, and we'll see how you perform."

"I guarantee I will complete the mission."

Park Hyo-min playfully raised her hand in a salute: "Loyalty!"

Who said she was dazed?

Isn't that quite responsive?

Around 10 p.m., the group arrived in Beijing and checked into their hotel.

Han Shuo received Zhang Jiao's greeting almost as soon as he arrived at the hotel.

She implied that she wanted to see him.

They practically wrote "I really want to improve" in their text messages.

Han Shuo booked a meeting room and sent the address to Zhang Jiao.

Last week, a total of six music videos were filmed, including the five songs in the first wave of promotion, as well as "Unfortunately, If Only" starring Kang Hanna.

There are currently five music videos remaining:

7. "The Wind Rises", Female version: Ni Ni. Male version: Han Shuo.

8. "Time Thief": Solo, Ni Ni. MV: Han Ye-seul.

9. "If Love Is Forgotten": Duet, Park So-yeon. MV: Park So-yeon. 10. "Drifting to the North": Solo. MV: Zhang Jiao.

11. Cover of "Hello Tomorrow" by Park So-yeon. MV: Lee Yeon-hee.

The female lead for the music video of "Drifting to the North" has not yet been decided, but it is actually reserved for Zhang Jiao.

Zhang Jiao did not disappoint.

A month and a half ago, she was a bit overweight and her facial structure was too flat.

It's a bit like an unformed clay figure that has fallen face down to the ground, its features jumbled together, indistinguishable from one another.

She has lost a lot of weight, her facial features are starting to become more defined, and her waistline is beginning to show. She already looks somewhat like someone from the future timeline.

"Director, do I qualify?"

Zhang Jiao was a little uneasy.

In order to seize this opportunity that could be her benefactor, she invested almost all the money she earned from reselling goods into her weight loss business and even enrolled in a professional body shaping class.

They worked diligently and tirelessly for nearly fifty days.

Now is the time to be reviewed and face a fateful choice.

"Losing weight must be tough, right?"

"A little."

Han Shuo pushed two documents over: "Sign them."

"Uh-huh!"

Zhang Jiao darted forward and quickly wrote down her name.

She was signing the document almost as if she were in a rush, afraid that Han Shuo might change his mind at any moment.

"Signing so hastily, aren't you afraid there might be a trap?"

Zhang Jiao smiled sweetly: "If you have designs on me, that would be my honor."

Zhang Jiao and Jin Yunzhi
