Chapter 234 Not Crying, Just Tears
"No, I don't have any intention of protesting. I just want to remind you that although I should respect you as a senior, it does not mean that I agree with you being the captain. I think it is difficult for someone who can't even control his own emotions to lead a team of nine people. And I don't think I am inferior to you in any way, except maybe dancing, so I decided to compete for the captaincy. If you are still the same as you are today, I don't think it should be difficult!"
Although Jessica Jung is a little taller than Taeyeon, her aura is completely overshadowed at this moment. Taeyeon really looks like a mountain, very steady.
"call!"
Jessica clenched her fists and looked at Kim Taeyeon with an extremely cold look, looking furious. However, after half a minute, Jessica loosened her fists and looked at Kim Taeyeon, saying coldly, "Really? Then let's compete and see who will be the captain in the end!"
"Okay, but if it's just this, it seems like something is missing!"
"What else do you want?" Jessica Jung frowned.
Kim Taeyeon smiled this time and said, "No matter who becomes the captain, even if the other person doesn't like the other person, they must put the group first in terms of work. No matter what happens in private, they must agree on this!"
"Okay, let's see if you're really that awesome!"
"Bang!"
Jessica Jung walked past Kim Taeyeon, and their shoulders bumped against each other intentionally. Kim Taeyeon just smiled and didn't turn her head, but she also clenched her fists, and there was a thin layer of sweat on her forehead, which proved that her mood was not as calm as it seemed.
"call!"
"Kim Taeyeon, you have to work harder!"
After cheering herself up in her heart, Kim Taeyeon washed her face and left the bathroom without going in.
After a while...
Choi Sulli's little head popped out from a cubicle in the bathroom, and her expression at that moment was truly wonderful.
The sun shone through the gap in the curtains and fell on the desk in the room. The woman sitting on the desk seemed to have turned into a statue.
The thought of how she had sat there like a fool for two hours filled her with resentment.
Lee Hyori thought that Jung Soo-heng was just going to take advantage of her, but who knew that he would lie there for two hours, as if he was asleep. It was normal that you were sleepy in the afternoon and wanted to sleep. Lee Hyori saw that his face was not very good, but you can sleep if you want, why are you holding on to someone's legs so tightly? Lee Hyori tried everything, but Jung Soo-heng's hands did not loosen at all.
What annoyed Lee Hyori the most was that the guy was still lying face down with his hands around his legs. Wasn't it awkward to sleep in this position?
besides……
Seeing Zheng Xiuheng's head almost stuck into her skirt, Lee Hyori was speechless.
However, after sitting in this position for two hours, Lee Hyori felt sore in her back and legs, especially in the spine area at the back, which was very sore and swollen.
After enduring for a long time, Lee Hyo-ri finally couldn't help but yelled, "Ah, have you had enough? I'm dying. Stop it!"
I didn't expect Zheng Xiuheng to have a change of heart, but surprisingly, he actually reacted. After moving his body a little, he slowly sat up.
"Um?"
Lee Hyori was slightly startled and originally wanted to curse a few words to show her dissatisfaction, but when she saw Zheng Xiuheng's glasses with some water stains, she suddenly felt a little strange.
Zheng Xiuheng also felt the problem with his vision, and he took off his glasses with his right hand and put them aside. Then, Zheng Xiuheng with his messy hair continued to hug Lee Hyori's legs.
"Ah, what on earth do you want?" Lee Hyori was almost crying when she came to her senses, and temporarily put the issue of glasses aside.
"Let's go have a drink together tonight!"
"ah?"
Lee Hyo-ri looked at Zheng Xiuheng with a strange expression. At this moment, she realized that Zheng Xiuheng was really strange. First of all, his complexion was not very good at the beginning, and he looked very tired. Lee Hyo-ri even suspected that he was overindulging himself.
"Not going? Then I'll contact someone else!" Zheng Xiuheng said calmly, and it didn't seem like he invited Lee Hyori just because he wanted to drink with her.
However, Lee Hyori didn't care about their posture and position at the moment, but said to herself: "Strange, strange, you are really strange today!"
Lee Hyo-ri turned her aching neck and wondered what happened to Zheng Xiuheng. Her eyes fell on the glasses again. She suddenly remembered the marks on the glasses and the cold feeling she had felt through the stockings. She thought it was the bad guy's tongue, but now she thought about it, it didn't seem to be anything. When she looked at the glasses again, Lee Hyo-ri's eyes lit up and she looked at Zheng Xiuheng in astonishment and asked, "Ah, you're not crying, are you?"
Zheng Xiuheng was not frightened by this, but looked at Lee Hyo-ri and said calmly: "I didn't cry, but I shed a few tears!"
"Isn't that just crying?"
"no!"
"Of course not!"
"If I say no, then it's no!"
Lee Hyori was shocked by Zheng Xiuheng's unreasonable look. This guy was so dishonest. But looking at Zheng Xiuheng's look at this moment, she suddenly felt a little heartbroken when she thought that he didn't cry but shed tears just now.
It was only recently that Lee Hyori learned about Jung Soo-hyung's real age from Krystal Jung. Born in January 1985, Jung Soo-hyung is only 22 years old now. When comparing his age to her own, the six-year age difference has actually become a concern for Lee Hyori.
However, this is also the reason why Lee Hyori has become more tolerant of Jung Soo-heng. If the situation just now happened a few days ago, Jung Soo-heng would probably have been made bald.
"Ahem, it's not true so it's not true. But what's going on with you? Did someone play a joke on you on April Fool's Day? Or is it something else? If you believe in your sister, why not tell me? Of course, I'm not curious, I just care about you on behalf of Soojung. When I came out in the morning, that girl asked me to take good care of you today!" Lee Hyori said proudly. Although she said that she was concerned about Soojung, there was a lot of worry in her eyes.
Zheng Xiuheng was in fact in a bad mood, but that was all. It was just that Lee Hyori's words stirred his emotions. Everyone has a lot of things they don't want to touch, just like Zheng Xiuheng, who always forces himself to look to tomorrow and work hard for the future instead of looking back at the past every day.
Lee Hyori is right, Jung Soo-heng does seem to resist and ignore other people's concern, but at the same time he enjoys this concern. It is actually a very contradictory mentality, but this time it is not caused by Jung Soo-heng's own thoughts. Just like his retreat from Han Ga-in, that was indeed his immature idea.
But now, Zheng Xiuheng is more of a habit. When facing Han Ga In and Lee Hyo Ri, Zheng Xiuheng will always keep a lot of things to himself because they are adults, so he looks like he is resisting and ignoring each other's concern.
But when it comes to HyunA, Zheng Xiuheng will relax a lot. Although he will not tell HyunA everything about himself, he still says a lot. Perhaps it is because HyunA is not very old and always opens up everything to him without reservation, which gradually infects Zheng Xiuheng and makes him willing to say something to her.
It was precisely because of Lee Hyori's way of acting that Jung Soo-heng was unable to get the return that Lee Hyori asked for. In fact, a person like Jung Soo-heng needs others to open up everything to him first before he will be likely to respond to the other party.
Just as Kim Hyun-Ah said, the uncle is lonely inside, but not as lonely as Kim Hyun-Ah. Zheng Xiuheng's loneliness is not only caused by experience, but also by time, and this period of time is too long, so he has become accustomed to this loneliness.
Just now, feeling Lee Hyo-ri's genuine concern, Zheng Xiuheng's emotions were aroused, and at the same time, he truly recognized this cheap cousin in his heart. If it were in the past, he would not call Lee Hyo-ri even if he wanted to drink. Maybe he would call Han Ga-in directly, or maybe he would go alone...
When he heard Lee Hyori mention her sister, Zheng Xiuheng's expression softened a lot. He looked at Lee Hyori with a little tiredness, and after a moment he forced a smile and said, "Today is a very special day. I haven't been back for more than two years, almost three years!"
"Go back? Back to where?" Lee Hyori asked curiously, but she did not hide the heartache in her eyes. At this moment, in her eyes, Zheng Xiuheng took off his glasses, as if he had taken off his disguise. Not only his temperament changed, but for Lee Hyori, his face also looked a little more childish.
"go home!"
"Home? Isn't this your home?"
“In the United States!”
Lee Hyori looked at him in surprise. She thought that the brother and sister Zheng Xiuheng and Zheng Xiujing, together with their other sister, should be a family. But she was surprised to hear that they had a family in the United States.
"So are your uncle and aunt in the United States?"
"Um!"
Zheng Xiuheng nodded, lowered his head again, and rested his head on Lee Hyo-ri's legs. This time, Lee Hyo-ri didn't trim his hair, but suddenly asked nervously, "Um, what do your uncle and aunt do in the United States? Doing business? Um, they treat the older... ahem, say hello to them for me when you have time. After all, I am your half cousin!"
When Zheng Xiuheng heard what Lee Hyori said, he was stunned for a moment, but then he smiled and his eyes softened a lot.
"They should be traveling somewhere close to me, but I haven't visited them in almost three years. I miss them a little now!"
Lee Hyo-ri was surprised by Zheng Xiuheng's gentle tone. In fact, even though Zheng Xiuheng's gentleness was very deliberate after the two had sex for the second time, the emotion conveyed from his voice at this moment was enough to make people feel real. But on second thought, Zheng Xiuheng might be thinking about his parents, which is understandable.
