Volume 2 2010 Chapter 382: Seo Soo-jin's New Path (Part 4)
After communicating her decision with each of the five members, Seo Soo-jin felt a little tired.
Especially Shu Hua, her reaction was so excited, her voice was so loud that my ears were buzzing. It took a lot of effort to calm this girl down.
Alas~ She is the one who is unlucky, but she has to go to great lengths to comfort Shuhua. Xu Suzhen couldn't help but smile at herself. Is this what she owed her in her previous life?
Otherwise, why would he start taking care of her from the moment they met, like he was possessed? It doesn't make sense...
But if I think this way, then I must have owed Yi Haoyan in my previous life.
Well, I probably still owe a lot, the kind that I can’t pay off in several lifetimes.
Otherwise, how could I have given him everything in this life? There are some things that I would never have dared to think about before, but I did them later. For him, I have really lost all principles and bottom line.
So be it, I will regard this life as paying off my debts...
She took great pains to comfort the members and encouraged Shuhua to take her work seriously. Seo Soojin thought about others but ignored herself.
She is no longer an idol and has basically said goodbye to the stage. Her dream of more than ten years has suddenly ended. She has not yet adjusted her mindset and doesn't know what else she can do.
Misunderstood, framed, abused, and boycotted, Soo-jin, who had no way to defend herself, realized for the first time that rumors can really kill people.
In order to avoid harassment, Yi Haoyan arranged a quiet villa for her. Apart from going for regular treatment, she rarely went out. Fortunately, the yard was big enough, so she and her family felt safe here.
However, having lost her life goal, Suzhen felt an unprecedented emptiness and confusion. She was a quiet person to begin with, and now she was even more silent. She spent most of her time curled up on the sofa in the living room, staring blankly at the woods outside the French window, expressionless and numb.
I no longer practice dancing, which I once loved.
Yeah, what else is there to practice?
There is no point...
Every day is the same. Although Soojin is alive, she can hardly feel the passage of time. She is only 23 years old, but she feels that her life has come to an end. There is no way forward...
" Suizhen, a friend is here to see you."
The mother's voice interrupted the woman's daze. She stood up from the sofa a little slowly, and when she turned around, she saw a completely unexpected person.
Bae Joo-hyun.
…
Xu Suzhen, who had never expected the other party to come, looked a little embarrassed.
On the one hand, she begged her mother to help entertain the guests, and on the other hand, she hurriedly got up and hid in the room.
You must take good care of your appearance.
After all, this sister is also a competitor, and even in the current situation, I can't show weakness in front of her.
Even a defeated general must wear armor and go into battle, and must not lose to the enemy in momentum.
Half an hour later, Seo Soo-jin reappeared in the living room after changing her clothes, combing her hair, and putting on light makeup.
It’s not that I don’t want to dress up more beautifully, but I’ve already lost the initiative today. If I spend any more time dressing up, it will seem pretentious. It’s better to come out early so that I can at least be open and honest.
In half an hour, this beautiful woman left a deep impression on Mother Xu, and she was almost certain that she was not her daughter's friend.
But, he doesn't feel like a bad person.
Unsure of the visitor's purpose for a moment, after exchanging glances with her daughter, Mother Xu felt at ease and made an excuse to leave, leaving the space to them.
There were only two people left in the spacious living room.
There was silence. The women looked at each other and neither spoke first.
When Seo Soo-jin doesn't smile, she looks very oppressive, like one of those powerful older sisters who has been through a lot .
Not to mention Bae Joo-hyun, who has a cold appearance and becomes even more imposing when she is serious.
The atmosphere in the room became increasingly tense. Although there was no wind, the air seemed to be filled with the sound of swords and sabers, and a great battle was about to break out.
"Senior Zhu Xuan?"
Seo Soo-jin spoke first.
She sat upright with her back straight, looking very formal.
The two of them were not in a relationship where they could meet alone in private, so she had doubts.
"You don't look well?"
Ignoring the question in Seo Soo-jin's greeting, Bae Joo-hyun spoke in a light tone that sounded a little cold, and the ending tone of the question rose slightly, as if she was concerned but also provocative.
"The seniors have seen it all."
Xu Suzhen nodded, which was considered as her agreement.
There was no need to dwell on this kind of thing. The news was all over the place, and she had just seen how she looked. Although she had tidied herself up a bit now, it couldn't hide the fact that she was in a bad state.
What's more, compared with the other party, I am indeed the one in a worse condition.
On August 16, 2021, Red Velvet will officially return with the album "Queendom".
This is their official comeback after a year and eight months since the release of "The Red Festival Finale" in December 2019. It is also the first official comeback of this sister since the bullying incident was exposed in October 2020.
Although both cases of bullying were exposed, the outcomes were completely different.
Xu Suzhen is not someone who would shirk responsibility. Yi Haoyan did a good job and she can't blame others. It was her own fault that she was too mentally fragile and didn't hold on.
This time, the defeat was complete.
You're in a mess, Seo Soo-jin.
Looking at Bae Joo-hyun opposite her, Soo-jin sighed silently in her heart.
However, this period of time must have been difficult for Ouni.
She had lost a lot of weight, and her already well-maintained figure had become even thinner. Her slender legs were like chopsticks, which would break at the slightest touch.
That famous Korean face was too thin and even looked a little haggard, which could not be concealed even with delicate makeup.
But.
There is a defiant look in this sister's eyes.
In the deepest part of those gentle, tranquil eyes like the quiet water of a lake, there is a tough and unruly soul, that soul is like a fire, burning fiercely.
Seo Soo-jin could see it because she had once been the same.
But, I really failed miserably , so what can I do even if I see it?
Thinking of this, Xu Suzhen's heart suddenly felt empty. All her strength and fighting spirit flowed away like a dam bursting, and her whole body became relaxed.
"Are you here to laugh at me, Ernie?"
The deflated Xu Suzhen was a bit desperate, she knew that Bae Joo-hyun had always disliked her.
It’s strange to say, but Bae Joo-hyun can tolerate Kwon Eun-bi and Choi Sulli, and they even have a relatively harmonious relationship with her. Even those younger sisters are okay.
She was the only one who was rejected by this sister. Why was that? Soojin herself didn't know.
Perhaps, it’s because I’m the most “special”?
Forget it, there’s no point thinking about these things. Now that things have turned out like this, what else can I do?
"I'm not that boring."
Bae Joo-hyun had a cold face, and her already cold appearance seemed even more distant.
Looking at the woman in front of her who looked charming even without much makeup, she felt more and more uncomfortable.
Seo Soo-jin's feeling was not wrong, Bae Joo-hyun did dislike her, but not for any other reason.
Because she is too much like my past self.
She is also the "mother" of the team. She is good at taking care of people, cooking, gentle and good at listening. She is an older sister that the members trust and is very feminine .
Once upon a time, I was also such a person.
Even now, he looks like this kind of person, and Yi Haoyan likes people like this.
However, Bae Joo-hyun knew deep down that she had changed.
After so many years, Yi Haoyan has changed a lot, and I have changed a lot too.
The only thing that remains unchanged is that he loves her and she loves him.
They had struggled, wavered, quarreled, and hurt each other, but they still didn't give up on each other.
Even though she knew that the person marrying Yi Haoyan was not herself, Bae Joo-hyun was determined and would not look back.
So when she sees Seo Soo-jin, she will think of her innocent self and the silly boy she was back then.
That is the most memorable part of a relationship.
Such a Seo Soo-jin made her jealous.
However, even so, Bae Joo-hyun is still "the best woman of this generation" in Son Seung-wan's words, and she is not here to laugh at Seo Soo-jin.
"I'm not here for you."
Bae Joo-hyun's answer was straightforward and clear, showing her leadership as SM's de facto captain.
"It's for Yi Haoyan."
"He was very worried about you, afraid that what Shirley went through would happen to you. Although Shirley was fine in the end, he couldn't bear to see you suffer.
"Are you going to stay depressed like this? Don't tell me about depression! When Haoyan was depressed, he did a lot of things. He didn't stay at home like you and wait for someone to save him!
"You have to rely on yourself to get out of depression! No one can help you, not even Haoyan!
"Isn't it just that I was framed, cyberbullied, and wronged? Isn't it just that my career was frustrated and I can't be an idol anymore? What does this mean?
"I've been scolded more than you! More harshly! I've encountered countless setbacks in my career! So what if I ended my idol career at the age of 23? I didn't debut until I was 25! At that time, Haoyan was still in the hospital! I was busy preparing for my debut while taking care of him. Compared to that, what's going on with you?! Haoyan has arranged everything for you! What's there to be depressed about?"
Pei Zhuxuan had obviously been holding back these words for a long time, and now she let them out in one breath, feeling very refreshed. Her chest was panting a little because of anger, and her exquisite curves rose and fell violently, venting the excitement and anger of her owner.
Seeing her somewhat inappropriate behavior, Xu Suzhen suddenly realized one thing: the loser today might not be herself.
"Besides, I've experienced more than just this." After venting, Bae Joo-hyun's voice gradually regained its composure. The fire in her eyes gradually subsided, condensing into a sharp gaze, staring at Seo Soo-jin's face.
"In addition to online violence and career setbacks, I've also encountered emotional damage more than once! Have you ever encountered something like this?"
That extremely sharp gaze stared directly into Suzhen's eyes, like a sharp blade, flashing a terrifying cold light.
"How about giving it a try?"
Xu Suzhen raised her head suddenly! The arrogance in her eyes was about to burst out.
"If that's what you want to say, then there's no need to say it. I will find my own way, and there will always be new ways waiting ahead."
"As for emotional damage, I don't think I'll encounter it. But if you want to try again, I don't mind accompanying you."
Seo Soo-jin was completely in "combat mode", highly focused, and looked directly at Bae Joo-hyun without any hesitation.
At this moment, the imposing Seo Soo-jin is back again.
