Chapter 355: Dinner Party (Part II)
PS: I'm sorry, emergencies, yesterday's guarantee of three more postponed to tomorrow. I went out for half a day in the morning, and I had to go out at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and I hardly had much time to code today.
The atmosphere in the banquet suddenly froze, and the few people chatting lowered their voices, and those who ate reduced their movements. This woman's tone can obviously hear a little bit of-for-tat.
"Yes!" Jessica paused before speaking. There is no prevarication or ambiguity, it is Park Ji-hoon's recommended self, how about it?
"It seems that Miss Jessica and Mr. Park Ji-hoon have a good relationship, huh?" said the woman, a little yin and yang. Everyone present was not a three-year-old child, how could they not hear the taste of her words?
There were a few people who glanced at Jessica with a strange gaze.
"That's right!" Jessica frowned slightly, her eyes were slightly cold, and she said without hesitation, "He also went to my house for dinner!"
The strange color in the eyes of everyone at the banquet was obviously slowly fading.
"Really?" the woman said casually, then smiled lightly, and added as if inadvertently, "I heard that Miss Jessica's sister Krystal also has a good relationship with Mr. Park Ji-hoon?"
Here, the focus is suddenly on the word "also" that emphasizes the eccentricity, inheriting the flavor of her words before, which makes people can't help but think about it.
A chill flashed in Jessica's eyes, and she looked at the woman carefully for the first time.
The face is relatively long and the lips are thin. Painted with seductive eye makeup. What impresses people is the wide forehead and the two eyebrows with a larger gap in the middle than ordinary people. When speaking. The lips moved very quickly, and there was always a faint sneer on the face, giving the impression of being very cold—different from Jessica's.
"My sister has known him since he was in elementary school, do you have any questions from my seniors?" he asked lightly with patience in his heart.
A polite "senior" pointed out that he didn't know her, and he didn't even know her name.
Confrontations between women are often very subtle.
The woman listened. The corners of his eyebrows gradually raised, and there was a taste of annoyance and anger. Although I don't dare to really do anything to Jessica, it's okay to make it difficult for her a little. This kind of thing, most directors don't care, women's things are very troublesome.
Jessica still looks breezy - she learned from Park Ji-hoon. Suddenly, I found that I felt a sense of accomplishment and pride in making this look at this time.
"Sika!" At this moment, Park Ji-hoon's voice was suddenly heard.
I don't know when, the lively and noisy men's seats quieted down, and many people turned their heads to look at this side.
Everyone in the girls' seat was startled, and they had been paying attention to the confrontation between the two just now. I didn't even notice when the man stopped talking. However, it shouldn't attract so many people's attention! If you don't look at your expressions or atmosphere. The words of the two men sounded like ordinary conversations.
"OPPA!" Jessica replied as she stood up.
"Come and sit on my side, and I'll introduce you to a few seniors. Park Ji-hoon was strangely stunned when he heard her sweet and crunchy voice, and then his eyes swept over the faces of the women around her, and he spoke.
The women breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that it was because of this, and then there was a wave of jealousy. Park Ji-hoon and their seats are all heavyweights such as directors, screenwriters, leading actors, and producers, and the only girl among them is Han Hyo-joo, who is the leading actor and won the highest award at the MBC TV Acting Awards last year! Now, because of Park Ji-hoon's words, Jessica, a small supporting role who is not even an actor, has also become one of them.
However, just after being swept by Park Zhixun's eyes, they couldn't help but feel nervous, and even the woman who was embarrassed by Jessica before, as if she was frozen, actually squeezed out a smile in her mocking expression - under the weakness of her heart, she thought that Park Zhixun was warning herself!
Jessica got up, took her own dishes and chopsticks, and came to the vacated seat next to Park Ji-hoon, and greeted everyone first. Didn't sit down, waited for another greeting.
"This is our biggest boss, director Qiu Changmin. The upcoming film "I Love You", which features the elderly as the protagonist, is the work of director Choo Changmin. Park Ji-hoon introduced her, "Sika doesn't need me to introduce you, right? The members of Girls' Generation are more popular than us!"
"Hehe......" When everyone heard that he had counted himself in, they naturally didn't mind, and they all laughed.
"Hello, Director!" Jessica greeted with a respectful bow.
"Hello, Miss Jessica!" Choo Chang-min had already gotten up when Park Ji-hoon introduced himself, and after listening to Park Ji-hoon's detailed and humorous introduction, as well as the ridicule of everyone's laughter, he smiled helplessly, nodded to Jessica and said, "Just sit down, it's tiring to stand like this." "At the dinner table, it's not very convenient to shake hands.
"Director, just sit down, I'm a junior, it's okay to stand. Jessica said with a smile.
"Just let her stand, seniors and seniors greet, how can you sit?" Park Ji-hoon said a word, and then introduced the screenwriter, producer Zuò Fang and others for Jessica, and finally Yoo Seung-ryong and Han Hyo-joo.
After greeting Jessica one by one, she sat down between Han Hyo-joo and Park Ji-hoon.
"It's okay to be casual yourself, you don't need to be polite. Park Ji-hoon leaned over and whispered something in her ear, then turned his head and continued to join the conversation.
"Hello, Miss Jessica. Han Hyo-joo nodded and chuckled, and greeted Jessica again. In the past, it was only an official greeting, but now it is a personal contact.
"Hello Han Hyo-joo senior. Jessica nodded politely and chuckled.
Then, the two involuntarily fell into embarrassment. They all want to know each other, but one is an actor and the other is a singer, and they haven't been in contact before, so they don't know what topic to start with for a while.
"Jihoon OPPA has changed a lot. After a while, Han Xiaozhu took the initiative to speak.
"Hmm. Jessica nodded. "He wasn't like that before," he said. ”
"Yes, I first met Ji-hoon OPPA in the late stages of filming "Splendid Legacy". At that time, Jihoon OPPA gave me the impression that he was quiet, easy-going, and always had a chuckle on his face. The figure is also a little thin, if it weren't for the fact that his appearance hasn't changed, now I wonder if it's a different person...... "It can be seen that Han Hyo-joo is curious about Park Ji-hoon a lot.
Jessica went from being stunned at first to gradually revealing a sincere smile. It's always easier to be friends with people with straightforward personalities.
The two took Park Ji-hoon as the starting point and chatted.
Next to him, Park Ji-hoon didn't seem to hear the conversation between the two. Talking and laughing with Qiu Changmin and others, neither humble nor arrogant, humorous and polite, naturally became the center of the conversation.
No one felt abrupt, as if it should be.
A dinner party took nearly 3 hours to end.
When I walked out of the hotel, it was just dark, and many men were full of alcohol. There was no filming work today, and somehow, a group of people began to toast, and no one could shirk it. As a result, three of them were drunk, and the rest were drunk and hazy.
Park Ji-hoon is no exception. He was the main target of the crowd's toasts, and it was already good not to get drunk.
However, the men are indeed a lot more harmonious because of this, and when they say goodbye, they are still saying that they must take revenge at the next dinner.
After Park Ji-hoon got into the car, he asked Kim Min-joon for a cigarette and lit it. Kim Min-joon has been carrying a pack of good cigarettes for a long time, just for him. There's no way, take yourself with you, and you'll be searched every time.
Open the window to a gap.
Unexpectedly, as the car window opened, a face suddenly came into view, which frightened him all over his body, and the cigarette in his mouth almost fell on his pants.
It's Jessica!
He smiled helplessly, but didn't say anything, but opened the car door and moved a position to the side.
Jessica got into the car and sat down in the place in front of him, wrinkling her nose and staring at the cigarette in his hand.
"Didn't you leave just now?" Park Ji-hoon asked helplessly as he put out the cigarette in his hand. She had already said hello and left just now, why did she come back?
"Didn't you quit smoking?" Jessica asked instead of answering.
"It's just that I smoked less, and I didn't quit. Park Ji-hoon said, "It's not good to quit." ”
"Still you haven't made up your mind!" Jessica said with a slight pout, "I just pretended to leave for fear of being seen." Minya asked me to go for coffee with her. ”
"Oh. Park Ji-hoon answered, raised his hand again and touched his nose.
"Just after drinking, did you become addicted to smoking?" Jessica found that after she got in the car, he touched his nose much more often than before, and rarely showed a feeling of agitation.
"Got used to smoking one after drinking. Park Ji-hoon also noticed his abnormality, and after putting down his hand, he explained.
"Sit down there and smoke it. Jessica suddenly gestured to the seat next to him and said.
However, after his eyes fluctuated slightly, Park Ji-hoon quickly calmed down, and said with a chuckle: "No, you can bear it." "How flexible his mind was, how sharp his eyes were, and how much he had nothing to do during the years of silence, but only to study people! Maybe he wouldn't be too angry if he chose to snort, but because of something before, he felt guilty about Jessica and wanted to be better.
Jessica glanced at his face and stopped talking.
"Let's go to the apartment first. Park Ji-hoon said to Kim Min-joon.
"Okay!" Kim Min-joon responded and drove.
"You're not coming back?" asked Jessica keenly.
"If I shoot at night, I might be staying in the studio. Park Ji-hoon said, "You're fine, stay with Min-ah at night." ”
"Hmm. Jessica blinked, noncommittally in response.
Park Ji-hoon leaned back in his chair and stopped talking.
"What's going on with Xiaoxian?" asked Jessica after a moment of silence.
"Maybe it's better to be open. Park Ji-hoon said.
"Because of the movie?" Jessica asked again. That's the good thing about talking to him, he doesn't have to be thorough to understand what he's talking about.
"Probably. Park Ji-hoon hesitated for a moment before replying.
"Yes, yes, no, what does it mean to be 'maybe'?" Jessica asked, dissatisfied.
"That's it!" Park Ji-hoon said with a smile.
Jessica always felt as if he was hiding something, but he wouldn't tell it, and she didn't really want to ask, so she snorted and ignored him.
"What happened before?" Park Ji-hoon asked as he shifted the subject.
"Nothing. Jessica thought of the woman's words, and a blush of shame flashed across her face, but she shook her head.
"Oh. Park Ji-hoon didn't ask, and after responding lightly, he said, "If someone bullies you, sue me." ”
"Yes. Jessica's heart warmed slightly.
After that, the two fell silent again.
Arriving at the apartment quickly, Jessica went upstairs, and Park Ji-hoon went directly to the "Great Hidden One" studio.
Didn't return overnight.
It wasn't until about 5 o'clock the next morning that Park Ji-hoon returned to the apartment with his tired body.
Without alarming Park Min-ah, after a little washing, he returned to his bedroom.
However, as soon as he pushed the door in, he stepped back and looked up at the room.
That's right, it's my own room. But why didn't Jessica sleep in her own bed instead of anyone in the guest room? (To be continued......
