Chapter 131 Jessica Jung: I should be most wary of Krystal?!
---
"Oh, someone came to visit the set today?"
Kim Eun-sook also noticed the commotion at the door and asked curiously.
"Teacher, that's Krystal's older sister, Jessica from Girls' Generation. She's here to visit Krystal on set today."
Chen Ran's smile looked slightly unnatural.
After all, his own teacher had just misunderstood that he had feelings for Krystal Jung and was trying to play matchmaker.
Then, Jessica Jung appeared.
"Oh, so you're Soojung's older sister."
Kim Eun-sook glanced at Jessica Jung not far away and nodded thoughtfully.
"cough..."
Chen Ran suddenly coughed lightly and gestured to Jung Soo-jung across from him, telling her to go to Jessica Jung's side.
Receiving the look, Krystal blushed slightly, lowered her head, and quickly walked towards her unnie. Why was she blushing?
Because she noticed the strange looks Lee Jong-seok and the others were giving her.
And what Kim Eun-sook just said.
It's quite easy to misunderstand.
Not far away, Jessica Jung was exchanging pleasantries with director Lee Eung-bok.
Two food carts slowly drove in from the entrance and parked next to the coffee cart that Kim Eun-sook had ordered.
This time, however, the food truck poster wasn't about Chen Ran, but rather a message of support and encouragement for Krystal Jung and the production crew.
After all, Jessica Jung came today to support Krystal Jung.
"Unnie, Director-nim."
Krystal walked over to Jessica and greeted Lee Eung-bok.
Li Yingfu smiled and nodded. Seeing that it was almost lunchtime, he asked his assistant to inform the crew to rest and eat.
A queue quickly formed in front of the food cart Jessica Jung brought. After Lee Eung-bok left, Jessica Jung looked at Krystal Jung and asked, "Where's Chen Ran?"
"It's over there."
Krystal Jung gestured in a direction with her eyes: "Writer Kim Eun-sook also came just now."
Jessica Jung paused for a moment, then looked in that direction and saw Chen Ran smiling and gesturing to her, and Kim Eun-sook next to him.
Jessica Jung and Krystal Jung walked over together.
Upon approaching, Jessica Jung immediately bowed to Kim Eun-sook and said, "Hello, screenwriter Kim Eun-sook, I am Jessica Jung."
For some reason, she felt a strange sense of nervousness.
It's probably because Kim Eun-sook is Chen Ran's teacher, so she can be considered Chen Ran's elder.
"You're welcome, Xiuyan-xi."
Kim Eun-sook was unusually enthusiastic when Jessica Jung greeted her.
At least the smile on his face was noticeably warmer than when he responded to Lee Jong-suk and the others' greetings earlier.
Little did Kim Eun-sook know, Chen Ran had feelings for Jung Soo-jung. As Jung Soo-jung's older sister, Jessica Jung was naturally an elder, and for the sake of her student's marriage prospects, she had to be polite.
In other words, Jessica Jung treated Kim Eun-sook as her future boyfriend's elder, while Kim Eun-sook treated Jessica Jung as a potential in-law.
Jessica Jung was unaware of what Kim Eun-sook was thinking, and felt a little pleased to see how friendly Kim Eun-sook was to her.
She couldn't help but glance at Chen Ran beside her.
Could Chen Ran have mentioned himself to Kim Eun-sook in private?
hee hee~
Beside him, Chen Ran watched this harmonious and friendly scene, but instinctively felt that something was amiss.
He quickly interjected, "Teacher, it's lunchtime. Are you going to stay for dinner?"
"Okay, let's eat here. I was planning to watch you film this afternoon."
"Okay, I'll go get you some food."
Jessica Jung, who was standing next to her, suddenly said, "I'll go with you. I was just planning to stay here for dinner anyway."
She was preparing to make a good impression on Kim Eun-sook, her senior. "I'll go, unnie," Jung Soo-jung suddenly said.
She's a little afraid to be around Kim Eun-sook now.
What if someone pulls her aside and asks her if she has feelings for Chen Ran?
She had also heard about Kim Eun-sook's domineering pursuit of her husband.
She didn't believe that someone who would say something as blunt as "Come with me, I'll take care of you" after just meeting her wouldn't directly ask her if she liked Chen Ran.
Make a run for it!
"Then let Ran and Soojung go together," Kim Eun-sook decided.
Jessica Jung had no choice but to agree.
She was hoping to have more time alone with Chen Ran, but alas.
Kim Eun-sook watched Chen Ran and Jung Soo-jung turn and leave, a smile flashing in her eyes.
Xiao Ran, I've managed to get you some time alone, so you'd better make the most of it.
It's more interesting to watch young people fall in love; it makes me nostalgic for my own youth. Please remember the only official website address for this novel: www.deqixs.org. This is the only website; other websites may be discontinued at any time.
The two sat side by side on the folding chairs that the staff had just added.
Watching Chen Ran and Jung Soo-jung walk away, Kim Eun-sook suddenly spoke up:
"Xiao Ran is a pretty good kid, isn't she? Xiuyan-xi."
Jessica Jung nodded quickly: "Yes, I think Chen Ran is very outstanding."
The man she set her sights on was naturally outstanding.
Upon hearing this, Kim Eun-sook's smile widened.
Once you get the other parent's approval, things will go much more smoothly.
The two had their own thoughts, but went in completely opposite directions.
---
On the other side, after Chen Ran and Jung Soo-jung walked a little further away, Jung Soo-jung looked at Chen Ran and asked:
"Oppa, do you often mention me in front of screenwriter Kim Eun-sook?" Chen Ran was stunned for a moment, then immediately shook his head and said, "No, it's just that the teacher heard about how I supported you during the audition, so she suspected that I had feelings for you. But I've already explained it to her, but she probably didn't believe me."
He smiled apologetically at Krystal Jung and said, "I'm sorry, Krystal."
"It's...it's okay, oppa was just trying to help me back then."
Krystal Jung pursed her lips and shook her head, unconsciously letting out a sigh of relief.
It's good that it was a misunderstanding.
If it's not a misunderstanding, then... what about my unnie?
The two of them each got two meals from the food cart.
Back in the actors' rest area, he handed the food he was carrying to Jessica Jung and Kim Eun-sook.
The four of them sat there eating and chatting, in a harmonious atmosphere.
Beside them, Lee Jong-suk and the others wanted to show off more in front of Kim Eun-sook, but they didn't dare to interrupt.
He could only eat obediently while secretly straining his ears to listen to the four people's conversation, hoping to find any useful information.
At this moment, they were extremely envious of Jung Soo-jung. Kim Eun-sook swallowed the food in her mouth, glanced at Chen Ran and Jung Soo-jung eating next to her, and smiled.
Suddenly, she remembered something and said, "Xiao Ran."
"Hmm? What's wrong, teacher?"
"Didn't you say before that Soojung was very suitable for the role of the second female lead in the script we wrote? I've looked at it now and I think she is indeed quite suitable."
As soon as the words were spoken, everyone in the actors' area paused subconsciously while eating.
Lee Jong-seok and the others who were eavesdropping nearby were startled after a brief moment of distraction, and their eyes widened slightly.
The script was written by Kim Eun-sook, and she's playing the second female lead.
That's a resource that so many people in the industry would fight tooth and nail for.
Are you just going to give it to me like that?
At that moment, their envy of Krystal Jung reached its peak.
Even actress Jang Nara was a little jealous.
This top-tier resource was offered simply because Chen Ran said it was suitable, like Jung Soo-jung extending an olive branch. Is this the true value of Kim Eun-sook's students?
Krystal Jung really managed to latch onto a powerful figure.
Everyone around was so surprised, let alone Krystal Jung herself.
She stood there, her mouth slightly open, still dazed, with food still in her mouth. She looked rather cute, a stark contrast to her usual aloofness.
Seeing this, Jessica Jung, who was standing next to her, secretly nudged her with her leg.
Hurry up and answer me.
Jung Soo-jung then came to her senses, quickly swallowed the food in her mouth, but didn't know how to reply for a moment.
"I...I..."
Chen Ran spoke up to defuse the situation, saying, "That role is indeed a good fit for Xiujing. If you also think Xiujing is suitable, teacher, you can let Xiujing audition."
Kim Eun-sook was referring to the character Lee Bo-na from "The Heirs".
Chen Ran had seen the final cut of "The Heirs" and knew that Jung Soo-jung's performance in the drama was outstanding, so she mentioned it to Kim Eun-sook before.
The role of Lee Bo-na is indeed very suitable for Krystal Jung, and it's also her most famous role. Kim Eun-sook looked at Krystal Jung and smiled:
"If Soojung is interested, she can come to audition, but that drama won't start filming until next year at the earliest."
Krystal Jung quickly replied, "Thank you, screenwriter. I will definitely go to the audition."
Only a fool wouldn't take the role of the second female lead in Kim Eun-sook's script.
"Hmm, no rush. That script is one that Xiao Ran and I co-wrote. You can contact Xiao Ran later. You young people get along well and can communicate more."
This can be seen as creating more opportunities for the two of them.
Upon hearing this, Chen Ran and Zheng Xiujing, who were in the know, understood the implication. They glanced at each other subconsciously before immediately looking away.
Chen Ran planned to talk to his teacher privately later.
If you keep playing matchmaker like this, something bad is bound to happen sooner or later.
Krystal Jung is also preparing to talk to her unnie about it.
But it's not that Kim Eun-sook misunderstood Chen Ran's feelings for her; rather, it's that she should hurry up and win Chen Ran over.
She would be the first to object if someone else snatched up such a gem of a man.
After a short rest following the meal, the entire crew resumed filming.
Chen Ran and Li Yingfu watched in front of the monitor, and Jin Enshu sat next to them watching as well.
To her surprise, her student seemed to have a unique talent for light and shadow.
In one scene, after Chen Ran made slight modifications to the lighting and camera work, the overall quality of the scene instantly improved.
Kim Eun-sook felt like she had struck gold.
I never expected Chen Ran to have such talent.
Chen Ran spent three hours on set in the afternoon, and Kim Eun-sook gave him a lot of advice, which he took note of. These were all points he hadn't thought of before, and they were very helpful in improving the quality of the entire drama.
Not far away, Jessica Jung saw that Chen Ran was busy, so she didn't bother him.
His gaze then fell on Krystal Jung, who was filming on set, and he couldn't help but purse his lips.
This younger sister just secretly told her to hurry up and win over Chen Ran, so that no one else could get there first, otherwise she would take him herself.
Listen to what you're saying. You want to go do it yourself? Is that something you should be saying?
If someone else had said that, she might have taken it seriously.
A moment later, Kim Eun-sook said goodbye to Chen Ran and Lee Eung-bok, and ran into Jessica Jung who was also preparing to leave. The two walked out together.
On the way, Kim Eun-sook glanced at Jessica Jung beside her and smiled:
"Xiuyan-xi, Xiaoran is very talented. I think he will surpass me in the future. What do you think?"
"Chen Ran is indeed very outstanding, and with your guidance, he will definitely become even more outstanding," Jessica Jung replied with a smile.
"Hahahaha, ability is one thing, but I think Xiaoran's personality is also great."
"Yes, I think so too." Jessica Jung smiled and nodded again.
She was naturally aware of this, which is why she liked Chen Ran.
"It seems that Xiuyan also approves of Xiaoran."
Jessica Jung blushed slightly, smiled shyly, and didn't reply.
She felt a little embarrassed to admit she liked Chen Ran in front of an elder like Kim Eun-sook. "So, do you think... it would be great if Ran and Soo-jung were together?"
"Hmm, it's good... huh?"
Jessica Jung nodded in agreement subconsciously, but when she realized what Kim Eun-sook was talking about, her eyes widened instantly.
What?!
Let Xiujing and Chen Ran get together?!
What's going on?
Shouldn't it be me and Chen Ran?!
Jessica Jung suddenly felt it was absurd.
Despite taking countless precautions, day and night, it turns out that it's hard to guard against a thief within your own ranks?
The person I should be most wary of is actually Krystal?!
