After returning from Incheon, Tang Jinyan called Park Soyeon and learned that they had to practice tonight.
He shook his head speechlessly and drove back to Cool City.
When he got home, Song Ji-hyo was not at home today.
Tang Jinyan exercised, took a shower, and ate as usual. Then, he put on his clothes and studied in the study.
This was one of the two types of life he usually lived. One was hanging out with his brothers in the nightclub, and the other was this lifestyle.
Now, it seemed that he had not lived these two lifestyles for some time. He did not know what he was busy with.
But strangely, he was not used to this lifestyle that he was used to in the past.
Flipping through the books on the table, he always felt upset and could not read a single word.
He suddenly remembered what he was busy with these days.
At that time, Jung Eun-thi was still in Cool City.
Every night, he was either with Song Ji-hyo or Jung Eun-thi. His days alternated like a god.
Now, his life at home alone suddenly became so abhorrent.
In the past, when he felt bored alone, he would usually call someone to send two women over. But today, he did not even think about such a thing.
His mind was always occupied by a few familiar faces. One was dark, and the other was bright. Over and over again, it was chaotic.
He did not have the mood to think about other things, let alone self-study …
What made him speechless was that in these faces, there was not only Xu Xian, but also Li Juli.
Sometimes, Tang Jinyan found it hard to understand. He was not a so-called promiscuous man, but his feelings for Jung Eun-thi could be said to be true. Just as Jung Eun-thi had praised him before, he would not say such disgusting words as loving both of them equally.
He believed that he could distinguish between lust and lust, so he could reject Xu Xian's confession, and he could also resist his desire for Li Juli. But why did their faces always appear in his heart?
He recalled the emotions he felt when Xu Xian confessed her love to him. Although he rejected her on the surface, he felt awkward in his heart … It was just like when he was young, he saw a piece of delicious barbecued meat, but it was snatched away by his friends. That feeling of wanting to fight with him, but he had to pretend to be a loyal friend and congratulate him for snatching the meat first.
He took out the stamps again and silently looked at Xu Xian's stamp for a while. His eyes slowly lost focus.
Speaking of which, it was quite interesting. The women around him were all celebrities, but this was the first time he had touched their products.
Suddenly, he wondered if he should buy a few posters of other people and hang them in his room. After thinking for a while, he finally shook his head.
Everything else was fine, but if Eun-thi's poster were to be hung … Would he still be able to sleep while looking at that poster in the future?
It might also provoke Soyeon. Forget it.
In short, his mood was in a mess tonight. Tang Jinyan closed his book and sleepily went back to his room to sleep.
He tossed and turned, but he could not sleep. A thought flashed through his mind, "Damn it, Zesheng and his gang must be having fun … Should I join them?
Forget it … It's too ugly and spoils my appetite … "
*****
"Oppa, my dad came to Seoul today. He wants to meet you for a meal."
The next morning, Tang Jinyan received a call from Li Juli. He asked, "Are you coming?"
Li Juli laughed and said, "You guys are talking about cooperation. Why should I be on the side?"
"I'll serve tea and water."
"It's not impossible, but we still have to rehearse today."
"Will the company force us to rehearse?"
"That's not true. It's just that everyone knows that they have been rusty recently, so they want to practice better."
Li Juli's voice was a little funny: "If everyone doesn't want to practice, then the team leader will call it quits."
"Your team leader is …" Tang Jinyan said halfway, "F * * k …"
There was a burst of laughter on the other side. Park Soyeon's voice came from the phone: "Okay, I'll let Juli and you go on a date."
Li Juli said again: "I'm not going. I don't even understand what they are talking about. Do you really want me to serve tea and water for them?
We will practice ours. "
Tang Jinyan did not know whether to laugh or cry: "Okay, okay, okay. Forget it."
After hanging up the phone, Tang Jinyan drove to the appointed hotel. He saw a very handsome middle-aged man coming up to him.
"Hello, President Tang."
"Ah, hello, Uncle."
The two men who met for the first time recognized each other at first glance because they were very familiar with each other's photos.
"President Tang looks more powerful in real life than in the photos …"
"No, no. Uncle is also very handsome in real life. No wonder Juli is so beautiful."
"Hehe, Zhi Xian looks more like her mother."
Tang Jinyan was stunned for a while before he realized that Li Juli was a stage name, and Zhi Xian was her real name. He secretly complained that these artists were really troublesome. They all had several names. Some were stage names, and some had changed their names. For example, Jung Eun-thi's original name was Zheng Huilin, and Song Ji-hyo's original name was Qian Chenglin. Anyway, every time he knew one more person, it meant that he had to remember more people's names. It was a pain in the ass.
The two sat opposite each other. Tang Jinyan poured sake for Li Juli's father: "Uncle, are you on a business trip today?"
Li Juli's father smiled and looked at Tang Jinyan. He didn't bother with formalities and said, "President Tang calling me uncle is … hehe."
Tang Jinyan was stunned: "Oh … is there a reason for this?"
"Not really."
Li Juli's father raised his glass. Tang Jinyan clinked glasses with him, and the two drank. Li Juli's father continued: "Actually, this time I need to rely on President Tang. Instead, I let President Tang greet me as a junior. I feel a little … hehe, if President Tang had a reason for calling me that, I would feel more at ease."
Tang Jinyan laughed: "Juli and I are friends. It's only right for me to greet her as a junior."
Li Juli's father smiled but didn't say anything. He was testing whether Tang Jinyan had feelings for Li Juli. Tang Jinyan indicated that he didn't, so the topic was over. He couldn't possibly link his daughter to the underworld.
If Tang Jinyan hinted that he did, then they could talk about it more. After all, he was also a little interested.
Tang Jinyan said again: "Uncle and I are working together. Don't mention relying on me. I don't know how much I'll need to rely on you in the future."
Li Juli's father smiled and said: "Since you insist on calling me uncle, then I'll be too distant to call President Tang. You don't mind if I call you Jinyan, right?"
Tang Jinyan smiled and said: "It's only right."
"To be honest, the desire to enter the Prosecutor's Office has been rooted in my heart for many years. I had this desire even before Jihyun was born … …" Li Juli's father sighed and said: "I didn't expect my daughter's friend to let me see this opportunity … … I have analyzed it from your perspective. After thinking about it, I think you want to transfer me to Incheon first?"
"Uncle is right. This is indeed the plan. But I don't know if it's too light?"
"It's not light. This step is very important because the Incheon branch office belongs to the Seoul branch office. I don't know how many people are stuck at this juncture.
Once this step is taken … … "Li Juli's father smiled:" Uncle, you have been in the underworld for so many years. It's not like you don't have any connections. "
Tang Jinyan nodded. This was the biggest reason why he wanted to work with Li Juli's father.
He had been in the system for so many years, and he had rotated positions in many places. He was familiar with the whole system and had accumulated a lot of connections. He was also one of the top people in Gaoyang.
Once he was given more space, he would immediately be able to play a huge role.
Moreover, compared to supporting someone who he didn't know the depth of, his relationship with Li Juli was more reassuring.
The two sides hit it off immediately. The cooperation model was also very simple. There weren't too many details to talk about.
The two men drank and discussed at the same time. The atmosphere quickly became warm and familiar. The atmosphere of strangers testing each other when they first met had long been forgotten.
"Jinyan … …" Tang Jinyan's father drank until his face was red. He got up from his seat and crawled to Tang Jinyan's side. He affectionately put his arm around Tang Jinyan's shoulder: "Jinyan … …"
Tang Jinyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He didn't expect Li Juli's father to have such a low alcohol tolerance. What happened to civil servants who can drink a lot?
He's even a prosecutor. How embarrassing … …
Li Juli's father sighed and said: "I heard about the matter between you and Jung Eun-thi … … Her father has no taste. Cough … … no taste!"
Tang Jinyan sipped his wine quietly and didn't say anything.
