Chapter 108: The World's First Cha (2222)
Unwilling?
Of course, she was unwilling, too.
No one is willing to exist as a supporting role.
But what can she do if she’s unwilling? Jiang Shu had already made it clear that the core of IVE was Liu Zhimin and Zhang Yuanying. They were all interchangeable accessories; even if leaving the group would affect IVE, so what?
As long as Liu Zhimin and Zhang Yuanying didn't leave, their attitudes didn't matter.
She didn't think there was anything wrong with Choi Yunjin's starting point for fighting for her position, but in a group like IVE, disobedience might be a mistake.
Kim Garam sighed inwardly, looking at Zhang Yuanying, who was chatting with Lee Ji-eun, and the leader Liu Zhimin, who was staring blankly at Jiang Shu.
She was also unwilling, but what could she do?
Thinking of this, Kim Garam couldn't help but look at Xu Suizhen.
She found that Xu Suizhen, whom she had always seen as a reliance, was standing beside Zhang Yuanying, with a gentle smile on her face, listening to their conversation.
Soo-jin Ouni had also integrated into their small circle, but she hadn't brought her along…
Then she looked at Lily, who was standing next to Liu Zhimin, her small mouth slightly open, looking dazed, and a hint of jealousy appeared in her eyes.
Even though she was a bit slow-witted, she was deeply cared for by Liu Zhimin and Zhang Yuanying, accepted by them without having to do anything. What a lucky girl.
“By the way, before it starts, should we go film the cha?” Zhang Yuanying glanced at the time and suggested to the others.
“Can IU Unnie dance ‘Love Dive’ yet?”
“Probably… she can, right?” Lee Ji-eun said guiltily. Her dancing… was unwatchable.
“Then let’s go! Let’s film now!” Zhang Yuanying said with a wave of her hand, but when she reached the door, she paused, as if remembering something, and turned to look at Liu Zhimin, “Ouni, what do you think?”
“I have no opinion.” Liu Zhimin shrugged, “Then let’s go film.”
Seeing Liu Zhimin’s complete lack of reaction, Zhang Yuanying couldn’t help but pout. This girl wasn’t taking the bait. Scheming with her was completely unfulfilling, darn it.
She really wanted to scheme with someone!!!
Xu Suizhen reached out and patted Zhang Yuanying.
“What is it, Susu Oni?” Zhang Yuanying turned to look at Xu Suizhen.
“Watch fewer palace dramas,” Xu Suizhen said earnestly.
Zhang Yuanying: “_”
“I… I didn’t watch…” Zhang Yuanying looked at the sky guiltily.
“Hmm, it’s best if you didn’t,” Xu Suizhen said with a smile, nodding.
“Why does Ouni know what I’m watching?” Zhang Yuanying suddenly frowned, looking at Xu Suizhen, “Are you spying on me?!”
Xu Suizhen smiled helplessly.
“The video membership you’re using is mine.”
Zhang Yuanying’s “overbearing” aura paused, and then she laughed awkwardly.
“Is that how it is… Ha, haha…”
Xu Suizhen shook her head with a wry smile, then looked back at Liu Zhimin, who was talking to Jiang Shu at the very back.
These two twin stars of their IVE were essentially children. One was quite cunning but used it all for mischief, and the other had no particular thoughts but spoke very directly.
The big stars in the eyes of fans were actually just two immature children.
No, to be precise, only Liu Zhimin, because Zhang Yuanying… was only fourteen, she was inherently a child.
Xu Suizhen smiled helplessly. She had originally only intended to integrate with them under the persona of a gentle older sister, but now she found herself somewhat embodying it.
Only…
Thinking of some things, a hint of gloom appeared in Xu Suizhen’s eyes.
Looking at Zhang Yuanying in front of her, she sighed inwardly, only hoping that those things wouldn’t happen.
The group arrived at the TV station’s parking lot. It was the least crowded and most spacious place, perfect for filming the world’s first cha.
Jiang Shu held his phone, acting as the photographer, while the photographer recording Jiang Shu’s vlog was filming Jiang Shu filming IU and IVE’s cha.
Nesting dolls!
“Remember what I told you, look at the camera, relax a little. Since it’s a video, we have many chances to reshoot, no need to be nervous.”
“Yes!”
“Then let’s film the three of you first, Xiao Liu, Xiao Yuan, and Ji-eun, you go first.”
Liu Zhimin and Zhang Yuanying stood on either side of Lee Ji-eun. Jiang Shu stepped back two paces, adjusted the lens, and gave an OK gesture.
Lee Ji-eun looked at the two beside her with some trepidation, took a deep breath, and began her “dance” with a look of someone going to their doom.
Liu Zhimin and Zhang Yuanying were dancing, while Lee Ji-eun’s limbs were fighting each other.
After only ten seconds of recording, Jiang Shu stopped the three of them with a speechless expression.
“I say, Ji-eun, can’t you control your limbs?”
“Mianhae!” Lee Ji-eun bowed awkwardly in apology.
“It’s okay, take your time.” Zhang Yuanying smiled and patted Lee Ji-eun’s shoulder, “IU Unnie just needs to get more familiar with it.”
Liu Zhimin looked at her in surprise. She was already calling her Ouni?
That was quite fast.
“Yes.” Lee Ji-eun calmed herself down.
“You guys give her some special training,” Jiang Shu said, putting away his phone.
Hearing Jiang Shu’s words, the IVE members swarmed around, guiding Lee Ji-eun.
It wasn’t that she hadn’t memorized the dance moves, it was simply that…
Brain: Okay, I got it.
Limbs: You got nothing!
Her limbs just wouldn’t obey.
After much effort, she finally managed to somewhat learn the chorus moves.
Honestly, the chorus moves of “Love Dive” aren’t that hard, right? Why was it so difficult for Lee Ji-eun?
Looking at Lee Ji-eun mimicking the moves in the camera, after finishing the recording, he handed the phone to the three of them, then waved at Xu Suizhen.
“Susu, teach me, is it that hard?”
Xu Suizhen was startled when Jiang Shu suddenly called her, but after being nudged by Lily, she came to her senses and trotted over to Jiang Shu.
“President nim!”
“Come, teach me.”
“Yes!”
As a former dance candidate for Five Dance One, the dance moves of “Love Dive” posed no difficulty whatsoever for Xu Suizhen.
Jiang Shu mimicked Xu Suizhen’s movements, performing the chorus moves of the song, counting beat by beat.
Soon, Jiang Shu grasped the key points and began to dance somewhat awkwardly to the music played on Xu Suizhen’s phone.
“IU Unnie, you don’t dance as well as Oppa,” Liu Zhimin said to Lee Ji-eun, looking at Jiang Shu.
Lee Ji-eun: “…”
Zhang Yuanying looked at Liu Zhimin suspiciously.
Didn’t she call him President nim? Why was she suddenly calling him Oppa?
Something was up!
Zhang Yuanying looked at Liu Zhimin, then at Jiang Shu, who was dancing the chorus, thinking this.
The short chorus was quickly finished, and everyone around applauded the moment it ended.
Jiang Shu’s mouth curved upwards as he looked at Lee Ji-eun.
“This isn’t hard at all.”
Lee Ji-eun was a bit speechless, but she looked at Jiang Shu, then thought about the video she had just recorded…
“Cough, cough, let’s record the next one.”
Everyone laughed at Lee Ji-eun’s words.
P.S.: I’m working hard to revise the first VIP chapter!
