ce was played on television. The members of EXO took the stage together to watch it, interacting with fans at the same time.This stage, like the music video, was filmed in one continuous take. The cos...Chi Jingyuan slammed into the seat in front of him. He hunched over, clutching his forehead, and his whole body felt dizzy. Loud shouts from the two people in front of him kept ringing in his ears, though he couldn't quite make out what they were saying.

Before the concept of time existed, this feeling of disorientation and confusion lingered for an unknown amount of time. After a while, Chi Jingyuan started to feel better. He gently shook his head, clearing his mind. However, the left corner of his forehead seemed to be bruised or something, throbbing painfully when he touched it.

"Jingyuan, Jingyuan, how are you"

Assistant Cui Jichang turned from the driver's seat, his face full of concern as he looked at Ji Kyungsun. Meanwhile, Park Bo Gum started calling out to Ji Kyungsun several times from the front, but there was no response. His heart skipped a beat, and he directly pushed open the door and got out in the rain. He opened the back car door, leaned in, placed his hand on Ji Kyungsun's body, and gently shook him, his face filled with anxiety.

"It's okay, I just got a little dizzy from the impact." Ji Jingyuan shook his head lightly, closed his eyes and felt it. He found that besides feeling a little dizzy and a bit of pain on his forehead, there was nothing else wrong. When he opened his eyes, his voice was a little hoarse: "I guess there's no big problem, just go to the hospital for a check-up later... Brother, what happened A rear-end collision"

"Let me see," Park Jae-hyeon said, visibly relaxing after seeing Ji Kyeong-won come to his senses. However, he was still a bit worried and reached out to check his forehead. Seeing the bump in the left corner, his eyebrows furrowed: "This is quite a nasty hit. Although there's no bleeding yet, it's already starting to swell. We need to go to the hospital right away."

After finishing his words, his expression changed. He looked at the black car that had rear-ended their vehicle behind the nanny van. His expression instantly turned fierce: "Driving this fast in such heavy rain Don't you value your life You not only endangered yourselves but also dragged us into this. You dare to hit our car You're looking for death!"

At this time, the driver of the other vehicle, a man in his thirties with long hair, also opened the car door and looked at the collision site under the rain. After carefully inspecting it, he walked over directly, stood outside the back door of the nanny car, pointed at them and began to scold in an unkind tone: "Damn it, do you know how to drive You're driving so slowly on such a wide road, delaying our business. Can you afford the responsibility You..."

"Bang!"

He hadn't even finished speaking before Park Jae-hyeon, who was already seething with anger, slapped him directly across the face, cutting him off. The crisp sound of his palm meeting cheek was startlingly clear even over the steady drumming of rain. Ji Jingyuan estimated that Park Jae-hyeon had probably used all his strength.

The driver, who had made false accusations first, was immediately knocked unconscious. He lowered his head and covered his face, screaming in pain. But Park Jae-hyun's actions weren't over yet. Taking advantage of the other party being disarmed, he kicked repeatedly, sending the driver sprawling to the ground, his cries of agony echoing through the air.

The driver, Choi Ji Chang, saw the situation at the back and immediately got out of the car to run over. He stood beside them looking ready to help, but after two seconds, his nose twitched. He leaned closer to the beaten driver and sniffed, his expression turning grim as well. He walked over to Jiyeong and whispered, "He was drinking."

Ji Jingyuan still lowered his head, covering his forehead. After hearing this, he also frowned and looked at the driver who was being beaten by Park Jae-hyun with disgust.

To meet such a moron who is looking for death at this late hour, it's truly a misfortune.

"Are you okay..."

"Does it matter"

At this moment, the back car's door opened, and from inside came several panicked female shouts. Afterwards, it seemed that the driver who had gone to check the situation discovered he was being beaten, and two or three figures emerged from the car, walking towards him in the rain.

Only when a few people walked over and, under the light, saw their own manager and driver being beaten on the ground and howling in pain did these girls suddenly become scared. Some were trembling and didn't know what to say.

Chi Jingyuan also looked over. The girls' outfits, hot pants and short sleeves resembling stage costumes, looked like a girl group. Their hair was messy from the rain and their makeup had run, leaving a few faces that Chi Jingyuan glanced at several times, vaguely feeling like he had an impression of them, as if he had seen them before during a singing or performance event.

It's just that I can't quite remember the specific name for this combination right now.

When Chi Jingyuan looked over, several girls also glanced over. They instantly recognized Chi Jingyuan in the car. Their eyes widened in surprise, and after a moment of stunned silence, they quickly tugged at their companions, whispering a reminder. Afterward, everyone looked over in astonishment.

They had never expected that a traffic accident would happen at this time, and it even involved Chi Jingyuan's car.

"You... you stop hitting! We're going to call the police!" Seeing their own driver being beaten worse and worse, the most composed and bravest girl among them stepped forward to speak up and try to stop it. But her voice seemed to lack real conviction.

"Damn brat, you're asking for it." Park Jae-hyeon kicked the driver hard one last time, then glanced at the girls standing beside him. They looked frightened but didn't say anything. The co-pilot picked up his phone and started making a call.

Several girls saw Park Jae-hyun was not fighting anymore, they let out a sigh of relief and walked over to take a look at the driver lying on the ground. They discussed quietly amongst themselves:

"Should we call the police Or an ambulance, Eun-hee Oni seems to be injured."

"Don't call the police..." The member who had just threatened to call the police directly refused in a low voice. They were very afraid of getting involved with this kind of trouble because of their profession. After thinking for a short while:

"I don't know what to do either, let's contact the representative and president first..."

…………

"You fainted from sickness last time, and now you're back at the hospital after such a short while. It's been years since you've encountered anything like this, haven't you Have you been cursed Maybe we should find some time to go to church for a service, or visit a temple to burn incense"

In the special ward of Seoul Samsung Hospital, the second brother, Ji Chang-wook, sat on a stool beside the bed, scolding his older brother, Ji Chang-suk, while skillfully slicing an apple and handing it to him. "Here."

After a traffic accident happened last night, Park Bo Gum made several calls consecutively. The police, ambulance, and people from S company and his family all arrived to handle the situation. Afterwards, Ji Chang Wook went straight to the hospital for a check-up.

After a thorough and careful examination, it was determined that he was not seriously injured in this accident. He mainly suffered from mild concussion and a severe blow to the left side of his forehead, resulting in redness, swelling, bruising, and some bleeding. While hospitalization is not required for an extended period, his work will be delayed for at least the next few days.

After the incident, employees from the company rushed to the scene and followed all the way to the hospital. After confirming that Chi Jingyuan was fine but needed to rest for a few days, they stated there were no problems. They immediately called back to report the situation and changed Chi Jingyuan's schedule for the next few days. At the same time, they held an emergency meeting overnight to discuss how to release this news tomorrow.

Although the accident happened in the early morning, because it was a rear-end collision and more than one person was injured, the police and ambulances all arrived at the scene. This kind of thing definitely couldn't be covered up.

However, there was no need to hide it in the first place. This time, regardless of reason or the police accident report, none of them, including Chi Jingyuan, were held responsible for the car accident.

I spent a night in the special ward. Not long after I woke up the next day, my second brother came. Judging by his appearance, he probably knew about it last night and dealt with it.

"I remember you didn't believe in this stuff before How come you've changed your mind as you got older……But I have to say, my luck has really been bad lately."

Recalling the near-accident he'd almost experienced while filming in Jordan a few days ago, Ji Chang Wook let out a wry smile with a hint of helplessness. He took the apple his older brother offered him but instead of eating it, he held it in his hand and examined it carefully, looking at it with surprise. "This is pretty well sliced," he said to his brother, his voice laced with astonishment. "You have this skill too"

“I still don't believe it, but I just want some peace of mind…” The second brother shrugged, indicating that he was still an atheist. Then, after hearing Chi Jingyuan's question, his eyes turned, and he smiled slyly at him, raising an eyebrow: “Sometimes it gets boring to just spend money on people. Playing around with something fresh and lighthearted is pretty interesting too. Want me to teach you”

"Annie, no need."

He let out a dismissive snort and took a large bite out of the apple.

"Your company has already communicated with the film crew. You can rest for a few days first, they will shoot other actors' parts first. It is estimated that someone will come to visit you later." Ji Jingxu remembered something and casually reminded him.

"Coming to visit I'm not staying in the hospital, just preparing to go back. Let them not come."

"Then go tell the production crew yourself. Do you think I'm your agent" Second Brother gave him a cold glance and finally started talking about yesterday's accident.

Ji Jingyuan just heard from Park Jae-hyun that the girls yesterday were the girl group DiesDe. Their van hit the car, and the driver who was beaten was their manager.

Yesterday, this girl group finished their schedule and was busy preparing to return to Seoul for the second event. The driver manager, however, went somewhere to drink some alcohol and drove at a high speed. According to the police, he was driving over 130 kilometers per hour on the highway. It was raining heavily, visibility was low, and the road was slippery. Driving so fast was simply reckless.

After getting off the highway, he did drive a little slower, but it was probably because his attention wasn't focused. At first, he didn't see Chi Jingyuan and their car ahead, and even though he was driving a bit faster, by the time he saw them, it was too late to brake. He slammed into them without stopping.

However, fortunately, besides Ji-yeong getting a little hurt, both Choi Ji-chang and Park Jae-hyun are fine. Apparently, some members of the girl group were also injured, but it wasn't too serious.

It's a good thing that wasn't happening on the highway, otherwise, with that manager's reckless attitude, things wouldn't have been this easy now.

"What are you going to do about the driver" Second brother poured himself a glass of water and casually asked.

"I don't want to see him again." Chi Jingyuan lowered his head and ate an apple, his voice flat.

"Well, I guessed you'd say that."

Being this well-acquainted with his younger brother brought him a touch of satisfaction. Ji Jingxu chuckled lightly, then nodded seriously: "He's currently incarcerated on charges of drunk driving and dangerous driving. I've made arrangements there, so it'll be difficult to see him outside for the next few years."

Upon hearing this outcome, Ji Jingyuan munched on his apple silently, only shrugging to indicate that he understood.

As he was speaking, Ji Jingxu's phone rang. He picked it up, saw the caller ID, and answered directly. After a few casual words, he hung up and looked at Ji Jingyuan with a smile. "This... what was it called again The girl group's name is so hard to remember... The president of their company came to the hospital to apologize, but my people stopped him. Do you want to meet him"

"People call her diesde, but it's really hard to pronounce..."

"Pool Jingyuan glanced at his second brother and reminded him, 'I didn't notice it last night, but after knowing the name, he remembered. This girl group debuted last year, their popularity isn't very high but not too low either, especially in the past six months, their development has been pretty good. They had once bumped into Pool Jingyuan backstage at several EXO activities and they exchanged greetings."

However, it was just a brief hello. Looking back, some of them might have been interested in Chi Jingyuan, but Chi Jingyuan himself couldn't even remember who they were or how many there were.

After thinking for a moment, he asked, "What company are they from"

“What kind of promise, a small company, can't compare to yours. I checked the president's background and he's not someone capable. After hearing about hitting your car and some things on our side, he was terrified and ran over to apologize to you out of fear of being implicated. He's considered a smart person.”

With a playful yet disdainful tone, Ji Jingxu commented on the management company's president, making it clear that he considered himself to be on a completely different level than the other party.

This is also the second brother's character. His gentleness and laziness only face his family and good friends. Even if he usually behaves as polite as Chi Jingyuan, the pride in his heart is deeply ingrained.

"Want to meet"

Chi Jingxu asked again from the side, looking at Chi Jingyuan who was considering and frowning, preparing to refuse, he smiled and added: "With this small company president, you can estimate that he will keep pestering you. If you don't see him at the hospital, he might even follow you to your company or dormitory."

"Survival wisdom Everyone has it."

After some thought, Chi Jingyuan nodded. "Let him come."

After Chi Jingxu made a phone call, the door to the ward opened shortly after. Led by his second brother's assistant, a man in his thirties, with narrow eyes that sparkled, and an ordinary appearance, walked in. He was short and stout. As soon as he saw the two brothers in the room, his face broke into a wide smile, his sincerity seeming to overflow.

To everyone's surprise, he wasn't alone. Behind him were five girls, the five members of diesde. Two of them had bandages on their heads, apparently freshly bandaged after being injured.

After these female idol members walked in, they stood there a little lost. They glanced at Ji-yeong who was on the hospital bed, then quickly retracted their gaze and didn't dare to look at him.

They were originally at another hospital and had just been urgently brought here by the company to meet the president who had been waiting here for a long time. Then, they were told that they would apologize to the other party with the president.

When they heard the news, they were still a little puzzled. Although yesterday was indeed their manager's full responsibility, and it involved bumping into the top artist in the K-pop world, s's idol, one of the most popular male idols right now, Ji-seong… but there was no need for the president to personally bring them over to apologize, was there

They had nothing to do with it either. It was the manager who was drunk driving and speeding, they are also victims!

This feeling of doubt gradually dissipated as they walked with the president into a restricted area of Seoul Samsung Hospital. Especially when they waited for half a day after the president was stopped, and saw CEO Piece smile honestly and sincerely. After entering, observing that the surroundings were far more luxurious and upscale than ordinary hospitals, with many assistants in black suits standing in the corridors, they realized that the Pool Kyung-won who had greeted them kindly behind the scenes before was not just an ordinary idol artist.

Several people had been quite interested in Chi Jingyuan before, often discussing his members privately. When they first saw Chi Jingyuan lying on the hospital bed with that face that was frequently discussed, they looked directly at his calm eyes and quickly lowered their heads, not daring to look back. However, their hearts were filled with turmoil.

Dissatisfaction, tension, shame, but there was a hint of glee nonetheless.

"Oh dear, Jingyuan xi, I am so sorry, so sorry. That scoundrel has been locked up, but his mistakes can't be easily erased. On behalf of the company and diesde, I want to express our deepest apologies to you, and..."

An Junhao, also known as the president of Porise Company, walked in and first greeted Ji Jingxu, who was standing beside him with an indifferent expression, with a fawning manner. He didn't seem bothered when he received no response and then sincerely began to apologize to Ji Jingyuan, speaking eloquently for a while. Finally, he turned his head to the several girls beside him, gesturing for them to quickly bow and apologize.

Ki Chyeong-won's gaze landed on two members of the girl group. The gauze on their heads was still visibly bloody, and their expressions were grim. He sighed inwardly, interrupting An Jun-ho, who was urging him on. A faint smile appeared on his face: "President ni, I've received your apology. You can go back now."

"This..."

An Jun-ho hesitated for a moment as he bowed and apologized to them. However, seeing that Ji-yeong wasn't expressing too much but had an undeniable smile that couldn't be refused, he quickly reacted, smiling and nodding repeatedly: "Yes, yes, Ji-yeong xi is indeed just like in the legends. We won't bother you resting anymore..."

His objective was accomplished, a large stone lifted from An Jun-ho's heart. His smile went beyond enthusiasm and into something a little pathetic. After briefly bowing his head to Ji Kyeong-seok, who didn't even acknowledge him, he prepared to leave with Diesde, who had done nothing since entering.

And these five people acted like puppets, doing whatever the president told them to.

Just as they were about to go out, An Jun-ho suddenly heard the voice of Ji Kyeong-won behind him:

"By the way, Mr. President, remember to get a driver with a normal IQ and a respect for life next time, so you don't endanger innocent people, okay"

Several people turned their heads and met Ji Jingyuan's slightly curved smiling eyes.

The sunshine after the rain streamed through the window and fell on him, but it held no warmth. Even with a smile on his face, he could only feel a profound sense of peace.

An Jun-ho, the president, let out a heavy sigh, unable to quite muster a smile. He could only hurriedly nod in agreement:

"I understand, I will."

Seeing them leave the room and even close the door, Second Brother turned to look at Ji Jingyuan, raising an eyebrow. The brothers exchanged a glance, then chuckled softly together.

"That's it. You should rest for a few days first. I still have things to attend to here, so I'll be leaving."

"Goodbye."

…………

"Ah."

Just after finishing his meditation practice and sitting on the floor browsing his phone, Ming-nan suddenly let out a gasp. He immediately sat up straight from his slouching position with his legs spread apart, fixing his gaze intently on the message displayed on his phone screen.

"What's wrong" A few friends sitting nearby looked over curiously and concernedly, asking.

But Minami didn't respond to their feelings. She remained focused and tense, staring intently at the phone screen in front of her. Her fingers moved quickly across it. After seeing one particular message, she let out a sigh of relief, her whole demeanor softening. She patted her chest lightly and, addressing Komatsuzaki Sashana, who had already leaned her head against Minami's to look at the phone together, along with the other friends beside them, she wrinkled her nose: "Ikegami Kyouya was in a traffic accident last night!"

"Really Your boyfriend was in a car accident"

After hearing this, Pingi Momoko's mouth opened in surprise. She looked a little disbelieving and asked, "...." Mikoto Minazuki on the side also stared at her phone with some surprise.

"Psst! Don't say that out loud, someone might hear you. I don't want to be laughed at."

Upon hearing this nickname, Minami looked a little flustered. She glanced around and saw that there were no outsiders nearby, so she relaxed slightly and revealed a somewhat enjoying smile. She casually brushed her hair behind her right ear, showing a hint of inner excitement.

"What are you afraid of The trainees who speak Japanese locally won't understand what we say anyway."

Hirano takes a look at Mei's expression and can't help but smirk: "Seriously, you act like you don't care about being called that. You're so tsundere..."

Those who know them personally are aware that Nami is a fan of Jiyeong and has always been supportive of him. When they hang out, they enjoy teasing each other playfully.

At first, Naoko felt a little embarrassed, but after hearing it so often, she started to secretly enjoy it. Gradually, she came to accept it openly and honestly.

However, saying that in front of others would probably be inappropriate and could lead to misunderstandings. She also feels a little embarrassed.

Pingjiang Tao saw the other person putting on a fake, composed act while secretly delighted. She felt uncomfortable and let out a strange "eh" sound, her voice tinged with displeasure as she pressed, “Don't just smile like that, tell me what happened to Chi Jingyuan in the traffic accident Was it serious”

"There was a traffic accident, but S just released an announcement saying nothing is wrong…"

Minami gave a brief explanation, then scooted over on her seat, showing them the news page on her phone. She read aloud: "According to our report, at 12:00 AM on September 3rd, EXO member Yuan, a popular group from s company, was in a car accident on the Yeongdong Expressway while returning to Seoul from Incheon. The van carrying him was rear-ended two kilometers from the exit."

It is reported that the vehicle involved was coincidentally the van carrying the idol girl group diesde. According to insiders, diesde had just finished recording the music program "Open Concert" on KBS and was returning to Seoul. After exiting the expressway, they rear-ended the van in front of them.

According to police, the manager Cui, who was driving in this accident, is suspected of speeding and drunk driving, among other illegal acts, and is held fully responsible.

“yuan’s affiliated economic company released a statement shortly after the news broke, confirming the traffic accident that occurred last night. The statement said yuan sustained minor injuries in the incident and needs a short period of recuperation. They will be temporarily absent from EXO's world tour concert scheduled for September 6th in Jakarta, Indonesia, but will not miss the opening ceremony of the Incheon Asian Games on September 19th. The company thanks fans for their concern and support.”

"The economic company diesde has not yet made an official announcement..."

First released on the Traditional Chinese Novels Networkilar charm to those worn by Taeyeon.Pei Zhuxuan smiled faintly, her expression unreadable. She met Ji Kyung-won's gaze for a moment, blinked her eyes, and then without any reaction, turned her gaze aw...
