From that Korean city.

Chapter 469: Small Storm~Control
That night, Lin Yi did not let Xian Enjing feed him anything. Instead, he sat on the sofa in the living room with her and watched a movie. After coaxing her to sleep, he quietly left the room and went back upstairs to continue playing games with Liuzi and others.

The next day.

Taozi, who was rehearsing a dance, saw Lin Yuner knocking on the door. Lin Yuner waved at her, then looked at the people in the practice room and smiled, "Excuse me, can you lend me Sulli for a while?"

The people in the practice room looked at Lin Yuner at the door. After a moment of silence, Victoria spoke up, "Sure, we can take a break."

So just like that, Taozi left the practice room with Yoona under everyone's gaze.

Looking at the two people's backs, Victoria looked left and right at the members on both sides.

As a result, everyone's expression was very confused, except Krystal who thought of the topic that the other party asked them when they went to see someone the day before yesterday.

But this is just her guess, she doesn't know the details.

the other side.

When Taozi followed Lin Yuna to the corner where the JK sisters had communicated last time, before they had said a few words, Lin Yuna told her the general plan that she had discussed with Lin Yi that night.

She was so shocked that she couldn't control her expression and opened her mouth wide. Then her first reaction the next second was, "Will this affect Oppa?"

Her words made Lin Yuner look at her with a bit of heartache, then smiled and shook her head, "Don't worry about him. Even if something goes wrong, he will never be the one to take the blame, even if it's you who are 'completely unaware'."

After hearing this very affirmative answer, Taozi finally breathed a sigh of relief, but there was still one question, which was...

"Ouni, why did Oppa do this?"

This was the question Taozi asked Lin Yi that day, but Lin Yi did not answer her.

Lin Yuna said, "Are you asking for the reason?"

Taozi nodded and blinked her lovely eyes.

Then Lin Yuna smiled and said, "Because he wants to make you more popular, and he has prepared a song for you that I think is very good, but I don't know if the company will use it."

"I?"

"Well, you. For your sake, and then radiate your combination."

After processing Lin Yi's thoughts, Lin Yoona's smile became even brighter. I wonder if Lin Yi would be speechless and hold his forehead with his hands if he were present.

But she didn't notice that Taozi had a strange expression after hearing her answer, as if she sensed something was wrong.

However, when Taozi wanted to ask more questions, a voice came from the other end of the corridor, "Yun'er, why are you here? Hurry up and gather. We're about to set off."

Turning back to look at Tiffany who was calling out, Lin Yuna waved her hand and said, "Got it, I'll be there in a minute."

After shouting, Lin Yuner looked at Taozi again and said gently, "Okay, I have to go to work first. Keep in touch, Sulli, remember to send me a message, I will definitely reply you when I see it."

"Well, unnie, go and get busy."

Then Yoona wanted to rub the head of the girl in front of her, but found that her height didn't seem to be suitable, so she could only smile and raise her hand and wave goodbye.

Taozi was also amused by Lin Yuna's funny behavior just now.

At the same time, when Yoona and Taozi were saying goodbye in the company, Lin Yi was also in a coffee shop outside, meeting the fat man whom he hadn't seen for a while.

Half an hour later, the two walked out of the coffee shop and went home.

……

……

the next day.

In a male dormitory of a university in Seoul, Choi Jin-yong, a freshman, had just woken up from his bed when he heard an extremely shocking news from his roommate.

That is……

"What? Are you sure Fx's new song has been exposed?"

After hearing the news, Cui Zhenyong jumped out of bed.

As a four-year veteran of Texpress (the fan name of the Peninsula Fx group), he has liked Fx since he was in the first year of high school. The "LA chA TA" on that rainy night was the video that got him into the group.

Ever since he saw that video, even if Girls’ Generation was in front of him, he could only admire them and couldn’t even show them the slightest bit of love.

So when Choi Jin-yong heard a few days ago that Fx was preparing to return to music with their third full-length album, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep the whole night, and then he surfed the Internet until the early morning.

He discussed countless topics with many fans like him, and every topic was about Fx members.

From variety shows to daily life, from photos to videos, from stage to offline and so on.

This also makes him look forward to the return of the new album.

Unexpectedly, when I woke up today, news about the title song of Fx's new album was leaked online, and even the audio and lyrics of the song were available.

Although it is not an official audio and is only an external recording version, the fact that it has been exposed cannot be reversed.

Although Choi Jin-yong is very happy that he can hear his favorite idol group's comeback song in advance, he is more worried that this early exposure will have a bad impact on his favorite group.

The same thought appeared in the minds of many Fx fans.

But despite their worries, they will still listen to music as they should.

Then he said with great satisfaction: It sounds good, it's worthy of being my little band.

……

slap~
A loud bang was heard in one of SMART's offices, causing many employees sitting outside the office to tremble and look cautiously in the direction where the sound came from.

"Tell me, who recorded this recording and who leaked the work."

"Office Chief……"

"Don't call me the director. If this problem can't be solved, then I will solve you. Currently, not many people in the company can access this part of the recording. You'd better give me an answer as soon as possible, understand?"

"Yes, I understand."

……

It’s still the same practice room, and the same Fx members are inside.

But at this time they were not rehearsing the dance, but sitting on the ground in a circle with a laptop in the middle.

hiss~
Luna gasped as she looked at the comments in the notebook in front of her and listened to the songs playing outside. "This must be someone from within the company."

"No need to ask, it must be true. So what should we do now? Should we continue dancing?"

After answering Luna's question, Amber looked in the captain's direction and asked with a little concern.

Victoria bit her nails when asked, frowned, stood up after a few seconds and said, "I'll go ask Oppa, you guys take a rest first."

With Victoria's departure, the remaining four people once again turned their attention to the computer screen, intending to see what the public opinion on the Internet was like.

However, from an angle that Luna and Amber didn't notice, Krystal was looking at Taozi with a shocked look. Obviously, she guessed who was the author of this masterpiece.

But the problem now is that she doesn't know why the guy did this, and he didn't give a reason that day.

So Krystal looked at Taozi, wanting to get an answer from her.

However, Taozi shook her head, because the answer that Lin Yuna gave her yesterday did not quite fit Lin Yi's character, so she was a little doubtful.

In Taozi's opinion, Lin Yi's answer to her should be some nonsensical reason like "the song is too bad" or "I'll help you change a pair". But since Lin Yuna had already found her yesterday, Taozi would not go to Lin Yi to ask any more questions even if she was puzzled.

A smart person needs to know when to ask questions and when not to say too much.

It’s even simpler for well-behaved people. Since he doesn’t want me to know, I’ll just pretend I don’t know. He won’t harm me anyway.

So Taozi, who had this idea in mind, shook her head at Krystal who had just given her a puzzled look.

Because she really didn't know the reason.

Krystal was a little confused when she saw Taozi also had a puzzled look on her face. She didn't expect that Lin Yi didn't even tell Taozi why.

But after a while, when they were alone in the practice room, Krystal looked at Taozi and asked worriedly, "Zhenli, did you give him this recording?"

Only after Taozi denied it did she feel relieved.

"That's fine, let's just pretend we don't know. Although we don't know what that guy is doing, it shouldn't be a problem. At most we can just change the song. But after the storm has passed, I will blackmail him severely."

Looking at the grinning Krystal, Taozi smiled gently, "Why don't you stop bothering Oppa, Xiujing? If he doesn't want to talk, forget it. I'll treat you to a fancy dinner, the kind with three Michelin stars."

In response to Taozi's answer, Krystal's momentum, which had just been built up, suddenly deflated as she looked at how sensible she was.

He sighed softly and looked at the other person with envy, "Zhen Li, you are so generous for that guy. I am really jealous. We have only known each other for the longest time, and that guy has only known you for a year."

"It's not a matter of time."

But Taozi didn't say what it was specifically, which made Krystal sigh again and again.

In the end, I could only say, "Okay, okay, I won't ask him any more questions. Is that okay?"

After receiving Krystal's positive answer, Taozi smiled happily. Then, without hesitation, she took out her mobile phone, opened the web page and searched for Michelin hotels in Seoul to prepare for a reservation.

Krystal was so scared that she quickly stopped her, "Ah, no, no, I was just kidding. Why eat Michelin? You might as well go get some sushi, at least you can still be full."

"what."

"It's settled. Treat me to conveyor belt sushi tonight."

"Yeah, okay."

……

noon.

The members of Girls' Generation, who had started working early in the morning, can finally take a good break, play with their phones and check messages while their schedule is moving.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, but when you do, you'll be shocked.

"Wow, this news is explosive. Sooyeon, come over and take a look. It seems that Soojung and her group's new song has been revealed."

Tiffany's loud voice woke up Jessica who was sitting in front of her.

After hearing about her sister, Jessica stopped being angry and turned to look at Tiffany who spoke up, "What do you mean by exposure?"

Sitting next to her was Lin Yuna, who also showed a gossipy attitude, "Yeah, unnie, what's going on?"

"Aren't Soojung and her group going to make a comeback? Then today, someone suddenly leaked the title song of their comeback album online, and it's a whole recording. If the company hasn't responded yet, then it's probably true."

As she spoke, Tiffany clicked on the audio recording that had already spread all over the Internet, and the familiar voice also reached the ears of everyone in the car.

After only hearing the first two sentences, Jessica was sure it was Krystal's voice, and then she sat up straight, "Yeah, it's Soojung's voice, is it really the title song?"

At this time, Xiao Yang, who had been reading the news, spoke up, "The person who exposed it said yes. I think it should be correct because the company has not made any statement yet."

Tiffany nodded. She and Xiao Yang had the same idea.

Hearing this, Jessica took Tiffany's phone and checked the news. After reading several consecutive articles, they all contained basically the same content.

There were even some people who claimed to be employees within the company and leaked the angry remarks made by senior management.

Seeing this, Jessica returned the phone to Tiffany and took out her own phone, "I'll call Xiujing and ask."

However, just as she was about to dial the number, Lin Yoona stopped her.

Looking up at the other party, I saw Lin Yuna said, "Why don't we wait a little longer? I guess Xiujing and the others are also confused now. It won't be too late to call her later when we have the accurate answer. Calling her now will only bring her a burden."

Yoona didn’t know that Krystal had actually guessed the answer, so she still thought about her.

The little sun in the back seat also said, "That's right, let's wait a little longer. If it doesn't work, it's better to ask someone else instead of asking Xiujing."

Jessica thought about the situation, nodded, and changed her words, "Well, I'll ask Shunli Oppa."

Cui Shunli, one of the company's recording engineers.

So Lin Yoona sensibly withdrew her hand, took out her personal mobile phone, and sent an emoticon package to someone.

A cute white cat giving a cartoon thumbs up with a sentence underneath.

【you are awesome】

The person on the other end quickly gave her an expression in response.

A hand holds a picture of a tornado with two words underneath.

【Get it right】

……

……

In the blink of an eye, two more days passed.

studio.

After connecting the indoor staircase between the downstairs and upstairs, it became much easier for Li Shaoxi to go down to check the progress without having to go around outside.

After determining the construction direction early this morning, she went back upstairs along the indoor stairs. When she opened the door, she saw the man she hadn't seen for several days.

"Oh, Oppa, you finally decided to go out? I thought you forgot about work."

"What are you talking about? I'm the boss."

Looking at the man who was covering his eyes and yawning, Li Shaoxi looked at him a little depressed, "Oppa, although Dongxiu unnie has taken up the post, as the boss and chief photographer, you can't be absent from work every day. A lot of business comes to you."

The Dongxiu unni that Li Shaoxi mentioned is the female photographer that Lin Yi interviewed a few days ago. Her full name is Kim Dongxiu.

The other party is not in the studio now because she has taken several new employees out to shoot on location.

"Shao Xi, this is not my fault. It's all because the game was too fun. It seduced me and I couldn't help it."

Thinking about how he had played "Titanfall" like crazy with Liuzi and others these days, Lin Yi felt itchy again.

If he hadn't been busy today, he probably wouldn't have gone out.

Li Shaoxi just sneered at the man's words, "Haha."

Then he remembered something and looked around the studio carefully. After confirming that no one was there, he walked to Lin Yi's side and whispered, "Oppa, was it you who was behind the news that was circulating online these days?"

In response, Lin Yi just smiled and pointed to the clock on the wall, "The SM people asked me to meet here at 11 o'clock, what do you think?"
