Top actresses want me to confess

Chapter 223 Preliminary Adaptation
On the peninsula in autumn, the green leaves gradually turn yellow.

The "bullying" incident about Pei Zhuxuan on the Internet has gradually lost its voice like a dead leaf that is about to wither.

In the afternoon of the next day, the stylist of the client deleted the previous ins, and posted a reconciliation statement, explaining that Pei Zhuxuan had come to apologize, and admitted that he made a mistake at work first.

After SM issued several warning letters in a row, all those who followed suit and spread rumors ran away, deleting some posts, and canceling accounts.

At the same time, some real people who have worked with Red Velvet stepped forward one after another to support Pei Zhuxuan.

As for Pei Zhuxuan's own fan site, none of the sites lost their fans because of Pei Zhuxuan's incident. Instead, everyone united as one and clarified the facts on the Internet everywhere.

Coupled with the fact that Naver, the top company in the peninsula, immediately jumped out to support Pei Zhuxuan, the direction of the wind gradually changed.

On the first day when the endorsement materials were normally released, Naver also encountered some criticism.

But after the weekend passed, those voices of moral judgment have gradually faded away.

However, although the trend of public opinion has changed rapidly, this incident still dealt a great blow to Pei Zhuxuan's career.

Many schedules were cancelled, group activities were also implicated, only other members were running their personal schedules at leisure.

The only remaining schedule for Pei Zhuxuan is the movie "Double Steak", which has already started filming. The film director Baek Seung-hwan is also one of Pei Zhuxuan's supporters who stood in line for the first time, and said that the filming will not make any changes.

After seeing the director's support, Pei Zhuxuan immediately called to thank him, and after arriving at the shooting scene, he also prepared gifts for every crew member.

In addition to Director Baek Seung Hwan, Baek Joo Hyun also expressed his gratitude to everyone who supported her and gave gifts.

As for the person who took the initiative to stand up and help her change her fate from the very beginning, Pei Zhuxuan naturally had other ways to thank her.

……

At the Naver headquarters in Tingzidong, Chen Gewei walked quickly into the office hall of the brand department.

When Shen Xianyou saw the leader, he immediately got up quickly and walked towards Chen Gewei, while the latter looked around at the employees in the office hall.

Many people looked very tired. As he expected, people from two groups stayed on for two days on the weekend, working overtime alternately, responsible for guiding the direction of public opinion on the Internet, and monitoring any unstable factors at the same time.

Shen Xianyou and the others have been actively cooperating since Chen Gewei took over and prepared to solve this matter.

Fortunately, things are going smoothly, step by step in a good direction.

But in the beginning, this matter only needed to terminate the contract with Red Velvet, and there was no need to save Pei Zhuxuan. It was Chen Gewei who changed the company's decision.

Now Chen Gewei felt a little sorry looking at everyone, and while thinking about ways to make up for it, he followed Shen Xianyou into the conference room.

The two exchanged the current public opinion situation and determined the follow-up combat policy.

Chen Gewei sent Jiang Guohua's inappropriate chat records to Shen Xianyou to watch the operation by himself. If necessary, he can also cooperate.

After the discussion, the two walked out of the meeting room.

Chen Gewei stood still at the door, looked at the large office not far away, then looked away hesitantly, and said lightly.

"Your department has worked hard overtime, what can I do to compensate you?"

"No need, Vice President."

Shen Xianyou shook his head immediately.

"Public relations crises are always going to happen, and it's normal to work overtime in an emergency occasionally."

"No, I'm serious."

Chen Gewei lowered his head and said affirmatively.

"There's a part of me that's wrong this time, and I'm a believer in quid pro quo, and I don't feel comfortable asking for anything."

"That……"

Shen Xianyou thought for a while, and then asked tentatively.

"Everyone may not be willing or have time for a dinner party, or give out coupons and the like."

"What coupon?"

Chen Gewei didn't add much to his gift-giving skills, so he asked directly.

"Well, shopping mall coupons, or food, fried chicken? Meat? Or movies and the like, that's all for popular entertainment that is more in line with South Korea's national conditions."

Shin Hyun-woo thought for a while and said.

Suddenly, two consecutive vibrations came from Chen Gewei's pocket.

This is a message sent by a contact, not an ordinary news hotspot push.

So Chen Gewei lowered his head and quickly took out his phone, lighting up the screen.

As a result, the unread message prompt popped up, showing that the contact note sent was called cabbage.

Chen Gewei curled his lips when he saw it, then quickly turned off the screen, and put the phone back into his pocket.

And Shen Xianyou also glanced at Chen Gewei's screen unintentionally. Although he didn't see the message below clearly, he could clearly see the note above.

Chinese cabbage……

White……

Ah~ I have already started using nicknames...

Shen Xianyou understood immediately, and then asked Chen Gewei with a smile.

"Why don't you give me some Red Velvet album? It just so happens that this time I'm helping Irene xi."

Chen Gewei raised his head, thought carefully for a few seconds, and then nodded affirmatively.

"I see, you give me the list of people working overtime, and I'll come back tomorrow."

After finishing speaking, Chen Gewei turned around and was about to leave.

But after walking two steps, Chen Gewei stopped again, turned to look at Shen Xianyou who was following up, looked at him, and said flatly.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Shen Xianyou immediately smiled and agreed frankly.

"this is necessary."

After speaking, the two separated again, and Chen Gewei left the brand department.

………………

Gangnam District, No. 101, Samseong-dong.

In the dormitory room, Pei Zhuxuan was curled up on his bed, looking at the phone, waiting for the reply from the vice president.

Now she really fully believes that Chen Gewei said that she doesn't care about her appearance. She has never been so neglected since she was born.

After waiting for no results, Pei Zhuxuan picked up her own script, which was her only schedule during this time.

But after looking at it for a while, she would unconsciously turn her attention to the mobile phone next to her.

The small and modern precision machine is still very quiet, without any movement.

Pei Zhuxuan got a little annoyed with waiting, so she got up quickly, got off the bed, and put her mobile phone on the wall cabinet farthest from the bed.

But after doing all this, he returned to the head of the bed and sat down, Pei Zhuxuan looked over again.

After staring at it for two seconds, Pei Zhuxuan still lowered his head and continued to think about his script.

Gradually, Pei Zhuxuan was able to devote himself more seriously, and even got up and took the pencil next to him, and began to take notes on the script.

After an unknown amount of time, there was a faint sound of the door opening outside the room.

Pei Zhuxuan raised her head and glanced. Although she couldn't see through the wall, judging from the movement of the door and the sound of footsteps, she seemed to be the member Park Soo Young.

Pei Zhuxuan pursed her lips, wondering if she should go out to say hello.

Her incident not only seriously affected herself, but also dragged down the group.

On the night Chen Gewei sent her back to the dormitory, Pei Zhuxuan apologized to every member of the group.

But the members are very kind, and they just comfort Pei Zhuxuan, think of a way for her, and cheer for her.

After thinking for half a minute, Pei Zhuxuan suddenly heard Park Xiurong's voice outside the door.

"Unnie, are you home?"

"Inside!"

Pei Zhuxuan immediately agreed, her voice was quite loud.

Immediately, the door of the room was pushed open by Park Xiurong, and a tall woman came in from outside, looking at Pei Zhuxuan with concern.

"Ernie, are you reading the script?"

"Ah."

Pei Zhuxuan nodded and agreed loudly.

My younger sister took the initiative to see her, which made her feel a little better.

Seeing this, Pu Xiurong thought about it for a while, and then looked casually, and found that the mobile phone placed on the cabinet next to it suddenly vibrated, followed by the screen.

"Oni, why do you put your mobile phone here, are you afraid it will affect yourself?"

Park Soo-young asked casually, and at the same time raised her hand to pick up Pei Zhuxuan's mobile phone, and glanced at the screen inadvertently.

It reminded me that a person named "terrorist" sent a message to Pei Zhuxuan.

The owner of the mobile phone heard the vibration, immediately got up and walked towards Pu Xiurong.

On the other hand, Park Soo-young moved his arms sideways, handed the phone to Pei Zhuxuan, and asked a little funny at the same time.

"Who are the terrorists?"

Hearing this name, Pei Zhuxuan unconsciously showed a faint smile on his face, took the phone and watched it with satisfaction.

She lowered her head to read the news while explaining something softly.

"Friend, I just met."

Park Xiurong looked at the faint smile on Pei Zhuxuan's mouth, stared suspiciously for two seconds, and then asked tentatively.

"Unnie, do you note terrorists to the friends you just met?"

Pei Zhuxuan in front of him quickly typed a message to reply, then raised his head to look at Park Xiurong, and said immediately.

"Just playing~"

Pu Xiurong still didn't believe it, but after Pei Zhuxuan's cell phone vibrated twice again, the team leader suddenly showed a surprised expression on his face, turned around immediately, and ran towards the window of the room.

Pei Zhuxuan quickly opened the window and looked downstairs at the apartment. A black Audi R8 had already parked beside the flower bed on the side of the road.

Park Xiurong also walked over, and after seeing the Audi R8 with the military plate, she nodded knowingly and teased.

"It seems that I don't need to care about you, O'Neill. Someone cares for me."

"No, someone asked me for something."

Pei Zhuxuan explained in a soft voice, and then walked past Park Xiurong lively, and raised her hand to pat her buttocks.

Park Xiurong looked at Pei Zhuxuan who walked into the bathroom quickly, thought for two seconds, then turned his head again, and looked out the window at the black matte-painted sports car.

"Hey, it's okay..."

Downstairs in the apartment, Chen Gewei was sitting in a sports car.

Looking at the time on his phone, it has been more than ten minutes since he let Pei Zhuxuan down, but the latter still did not move.

There was no other way, Chen Gewei could only edit a message again and sent it.

【Don't make up】

After the news was delivered, Chen Gewei put down his phone and looked out of the car window again.

Finally, after another 5 minutes, Pei Zhuxuan came out of the apartment building bouncing, and then regained his composure, walking towards Chen Gewei with gentle steps.

The vice president of Naver quietly looked at the road ahead, waiting for Pei Zhuxuan to come over step by step, opened the door and got into the car.

And just when the girl's butt touched the leather surface, Chen Gewei in the driver's seat spoke decisively.

"Choose a place with fewer people and sit for a while."

Pei Zhuxuan thought about it quickly, then looked at Chen Gewei in a daze, and asked softly.

"Is something wrong?"

"Ah."

Chen Gewei agreed softly, put one hand on the steering wheel, and was ready to drive.

Pei Zhuxuan thought for a while, and then suggested.

"Then let's go to Sinsa-dong, my friend has a coffee shop there."

After Chen Gewei heard it, he immediately recalled something.

If he guessed correctly, that coffee shop should be the place where he first met Pei Zhuxuan.

However, he went with someone else.

Seeing the change in Chen Gewei's expression, Pei Zhuxuan immediately understood what was going on, and then asked.

"Then why don't you change to another one? Just go to Seoul Forest's?"

Chen Gewei thought for a moment, then said in a deep voice.

"Seoul Forest."

With that said, Chen Gewei started the sports car and drove towards the bridge in the distance.

Pei Zhuxuan's eyes still stayed on Chen Gewei, staring quietly.

Although Chen Gewei himself does not admit it, it is obvious that Chen Gewei still has more or less influence from his predecessors in his heart.

The sports car drove up the bridge quickly, Pei Zhuxuan turned his head to look at the scenery outside the window, his mind was confused.

Chen Gewei took the initiative to come to her this time, probably because of public relations matters, but she just mentioned something that shouldn't be mentioned, so she had to be very cautious about her next sentence, she had to think clearly before speaking.

Finally, when the sports car drove off the bridge and entered the boundary of Seoul Forest, Pei Zhuxuan thought of something and turned to look at Chen Gewei.

"Uncle, what does he usually do in Korea now?"

Chen Gewei, who was driving the car, paused, and then answered.

"at home."

Pei Zhuxuan looked at Chen Gewei and waited for a few seconds, and just when she confirmed that there was no follow-up answer and was a little disappointed, Chen Gewei suddenly added again.

"Occasionally go to other fashion studios, or magazines and the like."

"Oh."

Pei Zhuxuan nodded in satisfaction, and then asked naturally.

"The current environment is not very good, and it seems that it is not suitable to go out to play."

"Ah."

Chen Gewei agreed softly, agreeing with Pei Zhuxuan's thoughts.

Then he moved his eyes sideways, looked at the street on the left, and asked naturally.

"Is there somewhere you want to go?"

Pei Zhuxuan immediately turned around and looked at Chen Gewei seriously.

"That's up to you, whether we go to have dinner, or just drink coffee."

"It will be all right."

Chen Gewei said lightly.

Pei Zhuxuan thought for two seconds, then decided.

"Then go eat meat, you can't eat too much sugar, so drink less sweet things."

Chen Gewei glanced at Pei Zhuxuan, then turned the steering wheel and drove to the ribs alley on the left.

"Just here, I came here with Seul-gi before."

Pei Zhuxuan pointed to a rib shop and said.

Chen Gewei then turned the steering wheel twice and parked the car on the side of the road.

After the sports car came to a complete stop, Chen Gewei in the driver's seat got out of the car directly, while Pei Zhuxuan sat in the co-pilot's seat and put on a mask.

After getting off the car, Chen Gewei came to the front of the car immediately and opened the front trunk of the sports car.

After Pei Zhuxuan stood still on the ground, she turned her head to look over, and saw Chen Gewei took out a large paper shopping bag from inside, which contained heavy things.

"what is this?"

Pei Zhuxuan asked curiously.

"go in."

Chen Gewei did not answer immediately, but let Pei Zhuxuan go in first.

But the latter didn't agree, instead he went straight to Chen Gewei's side and looked at him seriously.

"Where's your mask?"

Chen Gewei touched his pocket with one hand and took out the mask, but he was holding something in the other hand and it was difficult for him to put it on.

So Pei Zhuxuan naturally stretched out her hand, took the mask from Chen Gewei's hand, and put the mask on Chen Gewei like a hostess.

Looking at Pei Zhuxuan's movements, Chen Gewei's body was a little stiff, but he didn't stop it. Pei Zhuxuan still put on a mask for himself, and then took out a disinfectant spray from his bag, and sprayed it up and down on himself.

Chen Gewei pursed his lips in the mask, and then walked towards the door of the ribs shop with the satisfied Pei Zhuxuan.

The two walked into the pork ribs shop together, and Pei Zhuxuan took the initiative to go up to communicate with the waiter, and then chose a seat that was closer to the inside with sufficient partitions.

The environmental crisis has eased a lot. Although the people in the store are not as crowded as before, they still occupy a lot of places. However, everyone consciously separates them and keeps a distance.

Pei Zhuxuan and Chen Gewei came to the booth and sat down. The chairs here were connected in a circle. Chen Gewei raised his hand and placed the paper bag between him and Pei Zhuxuan.

And just as Pei Zhuxuan looked over curiously, the waiter also came to the seat, ready to start taking orders.

Chen Gewei turned to look at Pei Zhuxuan, who immediately raised his head, looked at the waiter gently, and then quickly asked Chen Gewei.

"Apart from sweetness, do you have any taboos?"

Chen Gewei hesitated for a second, then replied flatly.

"I don't eat spicy food, nothing else."

"OK."

Pei Zhuxuan nodded immediately, and then looked at the waiter again.

After ordering, Chen Gewei reached out and took out an oil-based pen from the shopping bag, and handed it to Pei Zhuxuan.

"sign."

Pei Zhuxuan glanced at Chen Gewei strangely, then lowered her head to look inside the paper bag, and instantly understood.

She still knew her own album, but she didn't understand why Chen Gewei took so much for her to sign.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Gewei looked at her plainly and explained.

"There are 24 employees in our company who work overtime urgently on weekends because of your business. Here are 24 photos."

"Ah, I see."

Pei Zhuxuan immediately nodded knowingly, then obediently took the oil-based pen from Chen Gewei's hand, and was about to start signing.

But when she pulled off the pen cap, she suddenly raised her head, looked at Chen Gewei and asked seriously.

"Do you have their names?"

Chen Gewei thought for a second, then raised his hand and took out his mobile phone, then found a list from it, and then handed the mobile phone to Pei Zhuxuan.

With the name, Pei Zhuxuan immediately activated her professional idol skills, and while signing her name, she also attached a short paragraph below.

Chen Gewei watched quietly, Pei Zhuxuan signed such things as quickly as he typed on the keyboard, and only hesitated a little when attaching greetings.

After signing a dozen or so books, the waiter also came up with their dishes.

Put the pre-baked ribs on the low heat and ask if you want to make their sauce.

Pei Zhuxuan raised her head, and wanted to speak for Chen Gewei, but the latter turned his head and spoke first.

"no need."

The waiter turned to leave, Chen Gewei turned his head to look at Pei Zhuxuan, and said softly.

"You can sign the rest after eating."

"no need."

Pei Zhuxuan lowered her head and said while writing.

"It'll be fine right now."

Chen Gewei pursed his lips, then he picked up a rib on the iron rack and tasted it.

The taste is not bad, and the heat of the grill is also in place.

Pei Zhuxuan who heard the movement glanced quickly, but immediately lowered her head and continued writing.

Finally, after 7 minutes, Pei Zhuxuan signed all the albums and put them back into the shopping bag in an orderly manner.

Chen Gewei also helped put a few books, and his middle finger touched Pei Zhuxuan slightly, but his expression remained calm.

Pei Zhuxuan observed Chen Gewei's hands in the middle, and found that his fingers seemed a bit short compared to a man of the same height, but his skin was very fair, perhaps because he had been sitting in the office for a long time.

After packing up the album, Pei Zhuxuan picked up the chopsticks, looked at the ribs on the table, and asked.

"Is there anything else I can do?"

"Gone."

Chen Gewei shook his head and said.

"Try to keep a low profile for the next time, don't show up, and you should be fine after a while."

"I see."

Pei Zhuxuan immediately agreed, but followed her to look around, and then asked softly.

"Then it's a little dangerous for us to come here."

"will not."

Chen Gewei casually denied.

"There is nothing wrong with you when you are with me. Under normal circumstances, no media dares to report my news unless it is a good thing."

"Because of your military connections?"

Pei Zhuxuan asked carefully.

"Ah."

Chen Gewei didn't care, and immediately agreed softly.

Pei Zhuxuan lowered her head, and said in a low voice.

"I did a little research on my mobile phone, and there's also the high-functioning antisocial personality you mentioned."

"Have you found it?"

Chen Gewei asked lightly.

"There are explanations on the Internet, but I don't know if it is accurate."

Pei Zhuxuan replied.

Chen Gewei paused for two seconds, thought for a while, and then asked.

"Then do you still have wrong ideas now?"

Pei Zhuxuan looked at Chen Gewei, and did not answer immediately, but thought carefully for a few seconds, and then asked in puzzlement.

"How did you decide it was wrong?"

"experience."

Chen Gewei raised his head and looked at Pei Zhuxuan coldly.

Those two short words immediately broke up the aura that Pei Zhuxuan had gathered just now.

Although Pei Zhuxuan wanted to refute Chen Gewei's idea, the experience he said actually existed and happened.

But a few seconds later, Pei Zhuxuan raised his head again and looked at Chen Gewei seriously.

"How can you be sure I'm just like her?"

Chen Gewei stopped, swallowed the meat in his mouth, paused, and then asked softly.

"What does your dad do?"

Pei Zhuxuan showed a puzzled expression on his face, and then asked in puzzlement.

"Why did you ask my father?"

"Is it inconvenient to say?"

Chen Gewei's expression was flat.

"Not at all."

Pei Zhuxuan said softly.

"My father is an ordinary company employee and works in Daegu now."

Chen Gewei thought for two seconds, then continued to ask questions.

"Do you think you have fans?"

Now Pei Zhuxuan became hesitant, she hesitated for a few seconds, then spoke carefully.

"This is very common in Korea..."

"Then I want you to quit the group and stop being an idol, are you willing?"

Chen Gewei followed up and asked, his tone didn't sound turbulent.

Pei Zhuxuan became very serious at this time, she straightened up, looked at Chen Gewei with a serious expression, paused for two seconds, and then spoke seriously.

"Although I made a serious mistake this time, I still want to go on with my teammates, at least not because of my personal reasons, and I have to be responsible to my teammates."

Chen Gewei nodded slightly, with a satisfied expression on his face, but he didn't say anything.

Seeing that Chen Gewei didn't speak, Pei Zhuxuan's expression softened a little, and then he became cautious again, looking at him and asking.

"Did you and her break up for these reasons?"

"More or less, and some class reasons."

Chen Gewei said lightly while eating the ribs.

"Class reasons?"

Pei Zhuxuan questioned.

Chen Gewei raised his head.

"She thought I looked down on Koreans, even though I emphasized to her that I was speaking objective facts."

"Then do you have it?"

Pei Zhuxuan stared at Chen Gewei and asked.

"of course not."

Chen Gewei replied immediately.

"I said I see all things being equal."

"Then I believe you."

Pei Zhuxuan immediately agreed.

Chen Gewei was stunned for a moment, then his expression softened, and then he slowly lowered his eyes and said.

"Thank you."

The two continued to eat ribs for a while, and after another 2 minutes passed, Pei Zhuxuan suddenly raised his head and looked at Chen Gewei with concern.

"However, you suddenly asked me this..."

"It's not that I accept you."

Chen Gewei spoke immediately.

"I'm just confirming your terms."

Pei Zhuxuan curled her lips in displeasure, glanced at Chen Gewei reproachfully, and then said arrogantly.

"I'm also very demanding, okay? Don't we just say we should be friends? Friends!"

"good friend."

Chen Gewei nodded indifferently and agreed.

Pei Zhuxuan looked at Chen Gewei strangely, thought for a while, and then asked carefully.

"Then, are you not resisting me now?"

Chen Gewei did not answer immediately, but ate the rib in front of him first, and then agreed softly.

"That's it."

Pei Zhuxuan immediately showed a satisfied smile, she lowered her head for two seconds, then raised her head again to look at Chen Gewei.

"So, as friends, what do we do after dinner?"
