That night, Tang Jinyan stayed in T-ara's new dormitory.
After dinner, he returned to the villa with everyone and never left.
The night was long. In the past, when Tang Jinyan stayed after dinner, he would hide in the room with Park Soyeon or Li Juli to watch TV or something. Today, however, he felt that it was inappropriate to hide.
The pool was brightly lit and a few girls were swimming and having fun.
Tang Jinyan had just finished swimming a few laps and was resting on the deck chair by the pool.
Looking at the girls playing in the pool, it was quite pleasing to the eye, but Tang Jinyan's heart ached.
He now fully understood why the girls' attitudes were strange today.
In essence, it wasn't because of the competition between Lin Yuner and Park Chulong. It was just a fuse that caused the girls' mentality to be a little unbalanced.
In essence, it seemed that it was difficult for other men to enter their world.
Lin Yuner's guess that day was right. What Quan Baolan said today also confirmed this point.
Although Baolan said that she hated him, she still wrote in the lyrics, "I'm, addic."
This was the real headache. The only solution was for him to leave them and let them pursue their own lives.
The problem was that what Park Ji-yeon said before was right. She couldn't imagine how the whole world would look at T-ara with ridicule if he left.
Just the thought of it was enough to make one shudder.
Therefore, there seemed to be no solution.
Tang Jinyan thought for a while but still couldn't figure it out.
He simply put on his clothes and got up to walk around to relax his mind.
When he entered the villa, he saw Li Juli leaning lazily on the sofa and reading a magazine. Seeing him enter, she smiled and said, "Not swimming anymore?"
"I'm resting.
You should exercise more. You're getting lazier … "
"I'm tired. I'm too lazy to move."
"Okay."
Tang Jinyan casually picked up her orange juice and took a sip. Suddenly, he asked, "Did you have the same mentality as they do now?
Do you feel like you've fallen into an unsolvable trap? "
"It's not the same. I really liked you at that time … I thought that I couldn't compete with Soyeon. It was really suffocating." Li Juli smiled and said, "But I seem to have served as a bad template?
I don't know if being with Soyeon for such a long time will have a subtle effect in everyone's eyes. It seems to be quite normal … "
"Uh …"
Li Juli added, "Do you still remember? I reminded you at a banquet."
Tang Jinyan nodded. Now that she mentioned it, he also remembered that during a banquet, Li Juli had reminded him that everyone was likely to fall under his wing.
Li Juli said lazily, "It's just a natural development. This day will come sooner or later.
I feel that this isn't fair to you. Since you've already made a promise, you can't even touch her. Yet, you have to accompany her … "
"It's not that you have to accompany her. It's just that everyone will be a little worried in their hearts. It's understandable."
"You're so understanding. You're even speaking up for these brainless girls."
"How could I not be touched by the song 'No.9'? My heart is filled with so many twists and turns."
Li Juli smiled and said, "You're always like this. Whoever treats you well, you'll treat them twice as well. In fact, according to common sense, people like you will suffer losses.
Yet, you don't seem to have suffered losses. It's quite strange. "
"Is it strange?
I feel that if others treat me well but I treat them badly, then I will suffer losses.
Because sooner or later, there will be a day when no one will treat me well.
I have the same persistence with my brothers in the underworld. It's the same for you. "
Li Juli's eyes sparkled. "Aren't you afraid of betrayal?
After all, there's no telling what's in a person's heart.
Most of the friends we made during those dark days were quite disappointing.
Fortunately, we gained you … So, we can't leave you. "
"So, I also gained you." Tang Jinyan pinched her cheeks. "Isn't that good?"
After a pause, he smiled and said, "There's no such thing as betrayal.
Betrayal only stems from my weakness. As long as I'm strong enough, there won't be any reason for betrayal. "
"This is the law of the underworld. It may not be suitable for the relationship between men and women."
"This is the only law I know." Tang Jinyan said indifferently, "Actually, there are times when it's just as applicable.
At the very least, ordinary citizens won't be able to change the thoughts in my heart. "
Li Juli smiled faintly. "What thoughts?"
Tang Jinyan smiled. "I can't say."
Li Juli lazily lowered her head to read a magazine. "I know even if you don't say it.
Even Soyeon, who put down the ban, didn't waver in her heart? "
Just then, a ghostly howl came from the room next door. "Ahhhhhh!
Open the picture!
Cheating!
Despicable, shameless, despicable! "
Tang Jinyan was speechless.
Li Juli said leisurely, "Can you tell?
That's the hippie who presided over the composition of the lyrics.
If we're talking about the most complex person I've ever met, this hippie can compete with you for the top spot. No one can accurately describe her with a single sentence. "
Tang Jinyan laughed. "My previous impression was that she was sexy, and that she was the last dignity of a T-ara figure.
Today, I found out that she's a sexy hippie. What does her ghostly howl mean?
Intermittent spasms? "
"It means that she's a gaming nerd." Li Juli smiled. "She's most likely being abused in StarCraft again."
Tang Jinyan recalled that Pu Hyomin had once invited him to StarCraft.
This was a popular game more than a decade ago. At that time, she was either in elementary school or junior high school. The fact that she could still play it now showed how addicted she was. God knows how many classes she skipped to indulge in the game …
In the information that D Society gave to Tang Jinyan, Pu Hyomin and a certain someone from Girls' Generation were inseparable. That person was also a gaming nerd. It was clear that sharing a common hobby was the right way to pick up girls. There were no height restrictions, and both men and women were allowed.
Tang Jinyan walked over and left the door open.
Pu Hyomin was typing furiously in front of the computer. Her hands were so fast that they seemed to be spasming.
On the screen was a small island with a few Protoss airport buildings. They were building an aircraft carrier.
A large group of Wyverns had surrounded it and were tearing it apart happily.
She was discovered building an aircraft carrier on the island, and now she's accusing me of cheating?
Tang Jinyan couldn't help but laugh.
"What are you laughing at?"
Pu Hyomin simply typed GG and exited the game. She turned around and glared at him. "Let's fight one-on-one. I don't like you right now."
"Because I hurt you too much?
So much so that you need to take painkillers? "
"Pffft …" Pu Hyomin laughed. "Shameless.
That's for the fans. "
"But if No. 9 is here, it won't hurt anymore, right?"
Pu Hyomin's expression turned serious. She stared at him for a while, and then nodded. "Yes."
"Then let's play StarCraft together.
Let's make up for the mistakes of that day. "
Pu Hyomin's lips curled into a charming smile. "Sure.
But do you really know how to play StarCraft?
It's not fun to be beaten up. "
Tang Jinyan stretched lazily. "When OPPA was playing StarCraft, your nose was still running."
Pu Hyomin looked askance at him. "Then let's add some stakes?"
"Sure. You decide."
"If you lose, you'll sleep in the main hall tonight. You're not allowed to touch Su Yuan or Qiu Li."
This method of revenge is rather interesting. It seems to reflect something … Tang Jinyan rubbed his chin and thought for a moment. "Then what if you lose?"
"How can I lose?"
Pu Hyomin refused to believe that this man who had never had the time to play games would win against her. Even if he was quite good back in the day, he hadn't played for more than ten years.
It would be a problem even if he didn't remember the opening sequence.
Seeing Tang Jinyan glaring at her, Pu Hyomin waved her hand in exasperation. "Really … if I lose, you can sleep here!"
