"Did you send your sweetheart away?" Pu Shanying teased when she saw Song Ji-hyo coming back alone.
Although Song Ji-hyo was natural and unrestrained when Xu Zhixuan was around, she was still shy when she heard Pu Shanying's teasing. "Jinni!" She hugged Pu Shanying's arm and acted coquettishly.
"Okay, I won't laugh at you anymore. But Zhixuan is a good man. You have to cherish him. Don't miss out on him. There aren't many people in the industry who can take responsibility like him these days!" Although Pu Shanying had just met Xu Zhixuan, she had a good impression of Xu Zhixuan. Perhaps it was because Xu Zhixuan didn't shy away from talking about his relationship with Song Ji-hyo in front of them.
Song Ji-hyo nodded. A happy smile appeared on her face. She said faintly, "I know. He's a good man!"
"But are you ready to go public with your relationship?"
It wasn't that Pu Shanying was curious. It was just that when she met Xu Zhixuan just now, she had the illusion that Song Ji-hyo's good news was about to happen. She thought that their relationship was about to go public.
"There's a chance, but I haven't thought about it yet!" Song Ji-hyo looked at the sky a little melancholy. The stars were covered by dark clouds. It seemed that her current state of mind was a little hesitant.
Pu Shanying put down the chopsticks in her hand and asked puzzledly, "Is it because of Xu Zhixuan?" She didn't understand. Just now, Xu Zhixuan didn't confess so straightforwardly. Could it be that it was fake? She raised her head and looked at Song Ji-hyo.
"No, it's because of me!"
She was very clear about Xu Zhixuan's attitude. It could be summed up in two words: whatever! It was fine to go public or continue to hide it. In short, Xu Zhixuan gave the right to choose to Song Ji-hyo.
If it was before Xu Zhixuan became famous or before he won the Best Actor Award, no matter how popular Xu Zhixuan was at that time, Song Ji-hyo would still support going public. But now, Xu Zhixuan was like the sun in the sky. Although he had only acted in two movies, and the latest one was still in production, Xu Zhixuan's status was far ahead of hers. Especially at the Green Dragon Film Festival, which had been receiving a lot of attention recently.
Speaking of which, if it was the Song Ji-hyo of the past, she might not have thought so much. Even if their status was far apart, she still wouldn't back down. Unfortunately, in the past year, Korea's women's rights movement was very popular. In addition, Korea's future first female president, Park Jinhye, had published a book. She was regarded as a guiding light by the Korean women's rights movement. Song Ji-hyo herself was also affected, which was why she was hesitating. If Xu Zhixuan knew about this, he wouldn't know whether to laugh or cry. Because the people behind the women's rights movement were started by his team.
"What's wrong? What's the problem? " Pu Shanying had just gotten married. She knew that after a female celebrity got married, they would retire and stay at home to take care of their husbands and children. She was lucky that her husband wasn't too stubborn, which allowed her to continue her career as an actress. She thought Song Ji-hyo was facing the same problem. After all, when a celebrity got married, the female celebrity would usually retire from the entertainment industry. This was a very normal thing.
"Jinni, do you think two people with a huge difference in status can be happy together?"
Seeing Song Ji-hyo's slightly depressed expression, Pu Shanying squinted her eyes and smiled, "As long as both parties love each other, status and whatnot won't be an obstacle to their happiness. Aren't I very happy right now?" The happiness on her face was obvious.
Song Ji-hyo looked at Pu Shanying and felt a wave of envy. She was a diplomat. She was actually able to accept his wife and continue being an actress. However, Song Ji-hyo knew that even though Xu Zhixuan was supporting Song Ji-hyo's career, there were many restrictions. Song Ji-hyo couldn't accept it. She also wanted to leave a good impression in front of Xu Zhixuan's family.
Which family's elders would like their child's daughter-in-law to be intimate with another man on TV? Even though Xu Zhixuan's parents had passed away early, don't forget that Xu Zhixuan still had elders. Even his elder brother, Xu Zhiyong's opinion of her was very important.
Song Ji-hyo, who was already familiar with Xu Zhixuan's elder brother's family, knew that even though her sister-in-law, Lim Eun-jung, supported him, it was all on the premise that Song Ji-hyo was sensible. However, Xu Zhiyong was different. Although they were familiar with each other, their relationship couldn't be compared to Lim Eun-jung's. After all, they were of different genders. Song Ji-hyo couldn't be close to Xu Zhiyong. She even knew that Xu Zhiyong's character was a little old-fashioned. Just look at Xu Xian.
"Sigh, Jinni, I'm really hesitating now!"
"What are you hesitating for? Tell me! "
Song Ji-hyo shook her head helplessly and said, "Even though Zhixuan's temper is very good, I know that he's a male chauvinist. It's okay that we're not married now. He's allowed me to go out and act, but he restricts me from acting in intimate scenes. However, I know that Zhixuan still cares about it in his heart. This can be seen from the fact that he has never watched my works."
Song Ji-hyo was right about this. Even though Xu Zhixuan was an otaku in his previous life and didn't like to watch TV, don't forget that if he really wanted to watch Song Ji-hyo's works, where couldn't he find them on the Internet? It was just that Xu Zhixuan didn't want to watch it. There was no other reason. Watching his girlfriend being intimate with another man on TV was unacceptable to any man. Therefore, Xu Zhixuan didn't want to see it.
"This!" Pu Shanying was also at a loss about this. She also deeply understood this point because her husband was the same. It could be said that men who married female stars, especially actresses, basically had this habit. "Actually, my husband is the same. I've also asked many seniors who are married. Most of them are in the same situation, so you don't have to worry too much about it."
"Really?" Song Ji-hyo's eyes were not confused. Pu Shanying's words were like a bright light in the dark. Song Ji-hyo really didn't understand. After all, she wasn't married yet, and she didn't even have many married friends in the entertainment industry. Therefore, she had always blindly understood this aspect. She always thought that Xu Zhixuan had a problem with her. "Jinni also encountered this kind of thing?"
"Yes, my husband and many other seniors who are married have this kind of situation with their other halves." Pu Shanying nodded solemnly because this wasn't something that was worth hiding. Many people could even find out if they asked around. "Actually, this isn't a big deal. You should understand Xu Zhixuan. If you saw Xu Zhixuan being intimate with another woman on TV, even if you knew it was fake, what would you think?"
"I …!" Song Ji-hyo originally wanted to say that she didn't care, but then she remembered the movie that Xu Zhixuan starred in not long ago. Especially the scene where Xu Zhixuan kissed Liu Renna. Although she knew it was fake, she still felt uncomfortable in her heart.
Although Song Ji-hyo understood the misunderstanding that had been suppressed in the bottom of her heart with Pu Shanying's explanation, she was still hesitant about whether to disclose their relationship. As mentioned before, Xu Zhixuan's appearance caused a trend of women's rights in South Korea. What kind of place was the entertainment industry? It was the place where information and consultation spread the fastest. Song Ji-hyo was inevitably affected by this trend of women's rights. Gradually, she didn't want to be Xu Zhixuan's vassal.
Let's not talk about Song Ji-hyo's situation first. Xu Zhixuan was also careless when he visited the set late at night. After all, South Korean reporters were not Hong Kong reporters. Although there were paparazzi gradually appearing, it was really rare for them to really follow a set overnight. However, Xu Zhixuan was unlucky. He really did meet one. It wasn't a paparazzi, but a newcomer who just entered the industry. Without the channels of an experienced reporter, he could only wait.
He had been waiting outside the set of "The Strong Class" for a few days. Because the first day of this TV series was average and didn't even break 10%, the attention on it was decreasing day by day. Many of the experienced reporters had moved to other places. Only he, who had no connections and no channels, could only wait foolishly. It could be said that fortune favors fools.
Who was Xu Zhixuan? You could ask any young Korean person and they would tell you. Even some of the older people would know about Xu Zhixuan. After all, his exposure continued. Just look at the major famous websites and search engines, and you would know that Xu Zhixuan's name would definitely be in the top ten of the reports.
Moreover, Xu Zhixuan and Song Ji-hyo were fans of RM. From the beginning, Xu Zhixuan's fans and Song Ji-hyo's fans were ostracized. Later on, when RM's fans joined in, it could be said that the Monday couple was already deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Just look at how Xu Zhixuan and Song Ji-hyo had a cold war on the show to cool down. After a few episodes, the audience called for the Monday couple to be together. This could be seen clearly.
Coincidentally, this reporter who had just entered the industry was also a loyal fan of RM. When he saw that Xu Zhixuan had come to visit the set, he didn't think too much about it. Instead, he excitedly took pictures of it. Now, any news about Xu Zhixuan would gain attention. However, he didn't think too much about it. When he sent these pictures to the news agency, their chief editor was excited. Why was that?
It was just a simple act of visiting the set. Why was the chief editor so excited? It was very simple. It was because he had seen a scandal. If it was someone in the industry who visited the set late at night, everyone would think that the two of them had a good relationship. However, Xu Zhixuan and Song Ji-hyo were different. Rumors about them had never stopped since the beginning of RM's Monday couple. It was just that there really wasn't any direct evidence that pointed to the possibility of the two of them being together, so everyone just treated it as a joke.
However, it was different this time. The audience didn't understand the significance of visiting the set late at night. They only knew why they had to visit the set late at night. Was there some unspeakable secret? Moreover, the protagonists were Xu Zhixuan and Song Ji-hyo, who had a scandal. When the chief editor saw the pictures, he was so happy that he decided that it would be on the front page of tomorrow's entertainment news.
As for Xu Zhixuan and Song Ji-hyo, who were still in the dark, they still didn't know that a scandal about them would break out the next day. This time, it was different from the past. With the pictures as evidence, and under the influence of the newspaper's words, it was very easy for it to become popular. However, Xu Zhixuan went home and immediately went to sleep. Song Ji-hyo, after being enlightened by Pu Shanying, also felt a lot more relaxed. She put all her effort into filming the drama. Because the results of "The Power Class" weren't good, the atmosphere of the entire set wasn't as good as what Xu Zhixuan had seen when he first arrived.
However, even if Xu Zhixuan and Song Ji-hyo knew that there would be a scandal, the two of them would probably still laugh secretly. After all, in the past, many of the scandals about the two of them had been initiated by Xu Zhixuan. It was just that they didn't know that when things reached an extreme, they would move in the opposite direction. In the past, there were no pictures of the scandals, but now there were pictures to prove the truth. The reason why Xu Zhixuan had been nominated for the Azure Dragon Award was obvious. Tomorrow, the main characters of the entire news would be them.
