Chapter XXXVII

Unexpectedly, Jessica suddenly became bright at dinner, and her body had regained some strength, talking and laughing with the little girls, and she no longer had the same sluggish state as before.

Moreover, in the days that followed, Jessica also recuperated with peace of mind, and asked Kim Sung-won every day for advice on singing skills and stage performances. After a serious illness to vent her emotions, Jessica actually adjusted herself and became more mature than before, and learned moderation in addition to hard work.

"I really envy Kim Tae-yeon's very rendering voice." After several temptations by Kim Sung-won, Jessica was already able to talk about Kim Taeyeon naturally, and although there was a little jealousy in her words, she was extraordinarily energetic.

"Your voice is slender and ethereal, I still envy you!" Jin Shengyuan always replied to her with a "look of jealousy".

And Jessica giggles just by imagining a voice like herself coming from Jin Shengyuan's muscular body.

"OPPA, your performance in X-MAN is getting better and better, isn't there a show inviting you to be an MC?" Jessica asked Kim Sung-won after watching the latest issue of X-MAN on her computer.

"There are some invitations to small shows, but I don't plan to be an MC for the time being. If you want to succeed, you first need to learn to be patient, not only to endure hardship, but also to endure temptation. Jin Shengyuan shook his head and said to Jessica, "Now X-MAN can be said to be the No. 1 variety show in the country, and the ratings can occasionally hit 40 percent, and more importantly, you can learn from the experience of the three of them in Brother Shi, and there are many guests in each issue who can accumulate contacts, not to mention some third-rate programs, which are incomparable to many first-line programs." ”

"Ratings hit 40 percent?" Jessica knew that X-MAN was a very popular show, but she didn't expect it to be so popular, and her eyes were full of disbelief.

"There is still room for improvement in the show, and the invited guests are gradually moving closer to the first-line stars, and some newcomers and second-tier artists who want to participate in the show need the brokerage company to dredge up the relationship." Kim Sung-won knows these things very clearly because of his relationship with Park PD and Yoo Jae-seok.

Jessica nodded, feeling a sense of delight. For a few days living here, Jin Shengyuan would often tell her about some unknown things in the entertainment industry, the transactions behind it, etc., which made her really mature a lot.

……

Five days later.

"Well, don't come again tomorrow," Jessica finally heard the doctor's words, but somehow, a trace of reluctance appeared from the bottom of her heart, and she glanced at Jin Shengyuan beside her.

"Dr. Xiexie."

"OPPA, let's go eat cold noodles." After walking out of the hospital, Jessica said to Kim Sung-won. She didn't need to be taboo anymore.

"Okay," Jin Shengyuan nodded.

There is a restaurant diagonally across the street from the hospital, just a two-minute walk across the street.

"Two portions of cold noodles, one part without cucumbers," Mr. Jin said to the waiter.

"Wait a minute, both servings of cucumbers." Jessica said suddenly.

After the waiter left, Jin Shengyuan looked at Jessica strangely and asked, "You're not afraid of cucumbers?" ”

After five days of getting along, Jin Shengyuan already knew that Jessica didn't like to eat cucumbers, but was very afraid of cucumbers, and the day before yesterday he ate a cucumber and was ordered by Jessica not to be close to her within ten steps.

"Don't be so sorry, won't I just put the cucumber in your bowl then?" Jessica said briskly.

"......" Jin Shengyuan looked at Jessica speechlessly, not knowing what to say, in his impression, Jessica was definitely not this kind of "calculating" temper.

"Do you need me to take you back to the office?" After eating the cold noodles, Kim Sung-won asked.

"No need, there are many people who know you now, and being seen is not good for your image." Jessica shook her head and said.

"I'm not an idol, what are you afraid of? And you're so young, even when you see people, you know that you're my sister, and not everyone is as 'short-sighted' as that nurse. Kim Sung-won is talking about the nurse who gave Jessica a hanging bottle for the first time.

"I'm fifteen!" Jessica snorted and said unhappily.

Jin Shengyuan was slightly stunned when he heard Jessica's tone, although he has always regarded Jessica as a sister, and it is nothing to be closer, but in the past few days, he always feels that Jessica's tone is a little too intimate when she speaks to him, and Jessica often shows some small actions that she never does in front of Yuna and them. …,

Jin Shengyuan was a little suspicious of Jessica's feelings for him, but he was afraid that she would only do this because of his own care, so in order to avoid embarrassment between the two parties, he never dared to confirm it.

"Am I being cranky?" Jin Shengyuan quietly paid attention and found that Jessica habitually made a bun face again, without the slightest abnormality.

"For people like their own sisters, they can still have this kind of thought, Hey!" Jin Shengyuan rubbed his chin and thought.

"Did he notice it?" Jessica tried to make a look of indifference, but her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, not wanting Jin Shengyuan to notice, but there was a trace of hope hidden in her heart.

Originally, Jessica just treated Kim Sung-won as her own brother, after all, he was the elder brother who grew up watching Xu Zhuxian. But since Kim Sung-won celebrated her birthday, Jessica had a trace of hazy emotions in her heart, but at that time, this emotion was more inclined to family affection, so Jessica didn't care.

It wasn't until that day when Jin Shengyuan took a nap that she suddenly realized that Jin Shengyuan's image was completely in line with her ideal type: tall, broad-shouldered, delicate but very manly.

At that time, Jessica was quietly patted on the shoulder by Yun'er, and the whole person was frightened, and the strange emotion in her heart was vented like a fountain, and she couldn't stop it.

When she got back, Jessica watched the movie "My Little Bride" as usual before going to bed.

On the day she got sick, she was irritable and depressed, so she ran to Sinshadong to shop under the scorching sun despite her illness, and then couldn't help but call Jin Shengyuan.

During the days when she was sick and was taken care of by Jin Shengyuan, Jessica also wandered several times, but every time she hesitated, this feeling prevailed, making her unable to extricate herself.

Although Jessica is very shy, she can distinguish between good and bad, and can express her feelings directly. However, in the face of Jin Shengyuan, she was never able to speak, perhaps because of his special identity, after all, he was regarded as a brother by Yun'er and them.

"I'm in a daze again," Jin Sung-won said with a hint of helplessness, waking Jessica from her contemplation.

"Humph!" Jessica snorted slightly, restrained her emotions, and waved the chopsticks in her hand again.

"OPPA, I'm back to the company, xiexie your care." After coming out of the restaurant, Jessica said goodbye to Kim Sung-won.

"Well, pay more attention to your body in the future," Jin Shengyuan waved his hand and said.

"Whew-" Jessica got into the taxi, her heart empty and a little light.

……

"Jessica, you're well?" Jessica had just returned to the company when she met Kim Hee-cheol, a senior from the same company, in the corridor.

"Hello Heeche, OPPA." Jessica bowed and said, "It's all right, Xiexie for your concern." ”

"This dress ......" Jin Xiche looked at the small floral dress that Jessica had changed into again, blinked, and said, "Jessica, have you ever been to Sinshadong?" ”

Kim Hee-cheol has a very good temper, and he is friends with Jessica and Yoona, and he is a senior, so he doesn't have any scruples when he speaks.

"No, Xiche OPPA, did you recognize the wrong person?" Jessica blinked and said calmly.

"Hey, it's not a big deal to have a boyfriend, as long as you don't get discovered by the company, it doesn't matter," Kim Hee-cheol said to Jessica with a look of "I know everything".

"What boyfriend? Hee-cheol OPPA, you must have recognized the wrong person," Jessica puffed out her mouth and said to Kim Hee-cheol, "I haven't come to the company to practice for five days, and I have to go to the head of the office to take a vacation, I'm sorry." ”

Jessica finished speaking and hurried away.

"Am I really wrong?" Kim Hee-cheol hesitated slightly, then gave up his guess.

……

"Hello, Mr. TheOne." Jessie took a break and went to the vocal practice room.

"Well, are you fully recovered?" TheOne nodded and asked.

"I've recovered, and Teacher Xiexie cares." Jessica said with a respectful face.

"Next time, pay attention to rest, don't push yourself too hard." TheOne gave Jessica a few words of caution and continued with the lesson.

"Hello, senior," a small girl with glasses whispered to Jessica, who was sitting next to her.

"Hello, just call me Jessica, we're the same year." Jessica said to her with a smile.

"Oh, Haode." The little girl was slightly stunned when she saw Jessica's gentle smile, which was very different from before.

"Jessica, you're going to sing this song," TheOne said to Jessica suddenly.

"Haode, teacher." Jessica hurriedly got up and cleared her throat, a delicate, ethereal voice ringing through the practice room.

TheOne's eyes lit up when she heard Jessica's singing. After missing school for five days in a row, Jessica's singing skills have not been left behind, but have gone further, especially the way she breathes when singing, which is faintly unique, making her more comfortable in controlling her singing.

"Papa......" Jessica had just finished singing when the little girl next to her slapped her.

"Not bad! Who taught you this way of breathing? TheOne also clapped his palms and exclaimed.

"Teacher Xiexie compliments." Jessica bowed and thanked her, saying, "This breathing was taught to me by a friend of mine. ”

"Very good, it's a good fit for you," TheOne said, "Your voice is not inferior to Kim Taeyeon's, and your basic skills are more solid than hers, but you are a little lacking in emotional rendering, so you need to work hard in this area." ”

TheOne, as a vocal teacher who has taught Jessica for many years, saw Jessica's previous performance in his eyes, and originally planned to enlighten her after she recovered, but he didn't expect that she had already stepped out of the shadows, and couldn't help but have a trace of curiosity about the "friend" she said.

"Teacher Xiexie," Jessica sat down after bowing again, a fresh smile on her lips.
