rk by renowned writer Kim Eun-sook, who has successfully produced several TV dramas in a row. It is considered one of SBS's key projects for the second half of the year.Moreover, ** itself is actively..."Aniha se yo..."

"Anihasayou..."

The two girls introduced bowed politely, appearing well-mannered. The surprise they had shown upon recognizing Chi Jingyuan earlier was suppressed, replaced by sweet smiles on their faces.

"Hello there..."

Chi Jingxu nodded lightly, while Chi Jingyuan returned the courtesy with a polite smile. He then took a glance at the few people across from him.

As a middle-aged woman, the traces of age on her face were very obvious, and her clothes could be seen to be of good quality. Her two daughters were both quite pretty. The elder sister, Ji-un, was more introverted, while the younger sister, Ji-su, gave off a more lively impression.

One obvious drawback is that it's not very tall.

As Pool Jingyuan's eyes swept past, they happened to meet Kim Jisoo's secretly wandering gaze. The two gazes collided in the air for a second, Pool Jingyuan smiled and nodded, while Kim Jisoo followed suit and hurriedly shifted her gaze, looking down at the floor.

Then, Mother-in-law, we'll take our leave...

Chi Jingxu had no desire to chat with them, so he went straight to his farewell.

"Alright, alright, please carry on with your work. If we get the chance next time, we'll visit again."

"Gold Mama, upon hearing this, hastily waved goodbye with a smile and stepped slightly aside."

Well, goodbye.

Chi Jingxu nodded and left directly, while Chi Jingyuan smiled and waved goodbye to the three of them, then quickly caught up with his brother's footsteps and left.

"Are you familiar with this person"

As he stepped into the elevator, Chi Jingyuan casually asked a question.

Of the three people just now, Jin Ma's enthusiastic way is something Ji Jingyuan has seen a lot, and it didn't leave much of an impression. However, both daughters are really quite beautiful. Their looks could even debut as idols and be considered among the top tier in terms of appearance.

"Ani, I met her once at a cocktail party before. She's the wife of the president of a small to medium-sized company. We wouldn't normally cross paths. If she hadn't introduced herself, I would have forgotten all about her."

Ji Jingxu shook his head, his tone flat with a hint of disdain. He seemed to not take the other party seriously at all.

This is his true personality at work, or when dealing with subordinates. It's a stark contrast to the lazy and narrow-minded persona he shows when spending time with his brother and family in private.

“…………”

Chi Jingyuan nodded, but didn't take it to heart either.

"Well, are you interested now that you see how pretty my daughter is"

Ji Jingxu suddenly turned his head and teased his younger brother.

It's quite pretty, but I don't have much interest in it...

"Just follow along, I'll introduce you to some friends. Smile and be friendly so we don't forget each other later and make any misunderstandings."

"That doesn't sound very appealing."

"Hmph, you're only interested in singing, dancing, those silly children's cartoons, and pretty girls. Everything else is just boring to you."

Ji Jingxu let out a sneer, sarcastically and ruthlessly.

"Aren't you Besides not watching anime Have you changed girlfriends recently"

Chi Jingyuan didn't back down, his eyes slanted and he retorted.

"Didn't you get it wrong Can that even be called a girlfriend"

The two kept talking back and forth in the elevator until it reached their floor. They only stopped after they stepped out.

…………

"Oh mom, what was with all that enthusiasm just now You were acting like you were fawning over someone. It was embarrassing!"

After the two brothers, Ji-won and Geon-woo, left, elder sister Jin Ji-yun frowned and said to her mother with displeasure.

Kim Ji-soo also nodded, her cheeks slightly flushed, feeling that her mother's attitude just now was indeed a bit too proactive.

"Oh, you two little rascals, you have no manners at all! Do you think I like doing this Yes, I'm flattering them, you know who they are They are..."

As soon as Jin Ma heard this, she was so angry that she couldn't find a place to vent. She slapped the elder girl hard and glared at the younger one before giving them a brief rundown of what she knew about Chi Jingxu's background.

She and her husband hadn't met many people, and about Ji Jingxu she only had a vague idea. But even just the bits of information they had managed to glean were enough to fill them with awe.

"If we could get in touch with their family, your dad's company would instantly go to the next level. We've worked so hard, not just for you kids to have better living conditions, but also to make things easier for all of us. I even greeted them briefly when I introduced you earlier, not saying a word more! Where did all the social etiquette I taught you go"

"How dare she show up now! I'm so mad."

Jin Ma sighed and let out a long, exasperated breath. She was very dissatisfied with the attitudes of her two daughters.

"Jia Mom, are you serious"

Kim Ji-soo couldn't believe what she had heard.

“Of course it's true, I met the older brother once before, he left a deep impression on me. After all, with his status, family background, appearance, and such excellence, it's really rare to see someone like him. I just didn't expect their family had another younger brother.”

"But the younger brother is even more handsome than the older one. That boy really... is much prettier than your older brother. Jiajia, this gene and heredity are truly excellent..."

"Grandma Jin sighed and shook her head, seeming a little disheartened."

"But that younger brother, he's an idol!"

Kim Ji-soo couldn't hold it in anymore, she blurted it out.

She had already entered YG company as a trainee two years ago, so she is considered an insider. She has always been particularly interested in the entertainment industry, especially the music scene. As soon as she saw Ji Chang-wook for the first time, she immediately recognized him as the most popular member of the hottest boy group EXO who has been dominating the charts for the past two months, Yuan.

Speaking of which, Kim Ji-soo actually likes "Roar" quite a lot. She practices the dance to this song during company rehearsals these days.

But after hearing what her mother said, it was hard to connect the background of this deeply rooted second-generation with today's popular idol.

"Idol Are you saying he's a celebrity"

"Well, Yuan is a popular member of EXO. His real name is Park Ji-sung. He's the youngest member and they are really hot right now! I even bought their album."

Sister Kim Ji-woon nodded, although she wasn't particularly enthusiastic, she was considered an EXO casual fan. She had bought albums and voted in charts before, so she also immediately recognized Park Gyeong-won just now.

After listening to Oh Ma's introduction, I suddenly felt like I had grasped a great secret, and my interest in EXO and Yuan deepened.

"So he's an artist, I knew I'd seen him somewhere before. Probably on TV."

"Ah, I see," Jin Ma sighed with a nod. "I never expected their family to let their child become an idol, just like the plots in television dramas. They're really open-minded, but I can understand too, after all, he is the youngest..."

"By the way, Ji-Soo, aren't you a trainee Do you know them Oh my goodness, this is quite a coincidence."

Suddenly, Gold Mama remembered that her youngest daughter also seemed to be in the industry and aspired to debut as an idol. Her eyes lit up instantly.

"Oh Mom, our company is YG, theirs is **. They're not even from the same company, how could they know each other Besides, Ji-sung is the most popular member in the hottest group right now."

And we've all heard that he's very popular with girls in the industry. There are countless people chasing after him, even without knowing his background or identity. I'm just a trainee, I'm nowhere near him.

Kim Ji-soo is speechless about her mother. She feels that her mother doesn't care about her at all.

"Well, then... how about I transfer you to **"

Jin Ma tried probingly, "

"Oh my!"

Kim Jisoo stomped her foot and shouted in dissatisfaction.

What does that mean It feels like I'm about to give myself away.

"Oh well, forget it. You're right, that family and appearance are top notch, there are tons of girls who would want to get to know them. Our Zhixiu is great too, but I doubt they'd even notice her."

Feeling the anger of her youngest daughter, Gold Mother hurriedly touched her head in apology while sighing with some regret.

Kim Ji-soo frowned upon hearing this, her lower lip pouted slightly, looking unconvinced.

"Who said that I'm pretty in our company trainee group, okay"
