"I …"
Faced with Xu Zhixuan's question, Song Ji-hyo wanted to say no, but when the words reached her mouth, she couldn't bring herself to say it. She realized that she didn't even have an excuse to refuse.
Thinking about it, let's not talk about her brother Xu Zhiyong and sister-in-law Lim Eun-jung, they really wanted her to give birth to a son for the Xu family so that they could pass on the Xu family's legacy. If she refused, they would definitely have opinions about her and the family relationship that she had worked so hard to improve would worsen!
Thinking about her parents, Song Ji-hyo suddenly revealed a bitter expression. If it were any other matter, her parents might have supported her. Even when she first took on the role of "Frost Flower Shop," as long as she made up her mind, they wouldn't say much and would only support her silently. However, she had already heard the words "give birth to a child" from her parents more than once or twice.
Xu Zhixuan snickered in his heart. Seeing Song Ji-hyo in a difficult position, it could be said that Xu Zhixuan was overjoyed. It wasn't that he hadn't mentioned it before, but at that time, they were still in a relationship. At most, they were just having sex, but they weren't married yet. Therefore, Xu Zhixuan didn't force Song Ji-hyo to make a choice.
However, it was different now. He had received an imperial edict from Father and Mother Qian. As long as he hardened his heart, he wasn't afraid that Song Ji-hyo wouldn't give in!
"You don't love me anymore!"
Xu Zhixuan was dumbfounded. He was really dumbfounded. What was Song Ji-hyo doing? Weren't we talking about giving birth to a child and retiring? It involved whether he loved her or not. Besides, how could he not love Song Ji-hyo? Other than some important matters, he basically gave in to Song Ji-hyo. How could he not love her?
"Zhixiao, why don't I love you anymore?"
"You don't love me anymore!"
Even though Song Ji-hyo was already thirty-one years old, when it came to the ability to act coquettishly, even when she was still a young girl, the Coquettish King, Li Shungui, was nothing in front of Song Ji-hyo. This was because when a mature woman acted coquettishly, she was much more seductive than a young girl.
Xu Zhixuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He had to admit that his lower body was shamefully hard. In the face of Song Ji-hyo's coquettish behavior, especially that dazed look, Xu Zhixuan was simply too adorable. If it weren't for the fact that the occasion was inappropriate, he would have directly pressed Song Ji-hyo under his body and done it with her.
"Zhixiao, we were talking about having a child with you …"
When Song Ji-hyo saw that Xu Zhixuan had woken up, she knew that her seduction had failed. In the past, every time she used this trump card, she would be able to deal with Xu Zhixuan. In fact, there was once when they were faced with the same situation, but Xu Zhixuan's heart still softened because of Song Ji-hyo's cuteness.
"You said it before. You promised. You made an oath!"
A series of words directly forced Xu Zhixuan back into his throat. Regarding this, Xu Zhixuan could only helplessly smile bitterly. What had he done wrong? Why did he have to try and persuade her? Now that he had no other choice, he could only bring up the imperial edict of his parents.
"Dad and Mom said that you should stop acting for the time being. They hope to see the results next year!"
Sure enough, when Father and Mother Qian's imperial edict came out, it was Song Ji-hyo's turn to be dumbfounded. She became completely helpless because she knew that Xu Zhixuan was telling the truth. On this matter, Xu Zhixuan would not lie to her because she had been nagged by her family more than once.
Seeing Song Ji-hyo sitting there in a daze, Xu Zhixuan could not bear to see her like this. He could only persuade her tactfully, "How about this? You, after filming this movie, temporarily retire. Let's settle the issue of the child first. This way, you don't have to continue to bear the pressure. After you give birth to the child, you can completely make a comeback!"
"Really?" Song Ji-hyo looked at Xu Zhixuan with a suspicious gaze. Obviously, she did not trust Xu Zhixuan!
Xu Zhixuan could only try his best to look at Song Ji-hyo with a sincere gaze and replied, "Really, I swear!"
Now, Xu Zhixuan did not dare to push Song Ji-hyo too hard. His attitude softened a little. However, after giving birth in the future, whether or not to let Song Ji-hyo make a comeback, he would think about it at that time. If it did not work, he could let Song Ji-hyo spend all her energy on the Actors Guild company.
"Well, I'll believe you for the time being!" Song Ji-hyo said with a little reluctance and a little helplessness. Naturally, she could not believe all of it. After all, even Xu Zhixuan himself found it hard to believe that his lust just now had already been exposed when he used his acting skills!
Xu Zhixuan had just breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Before he could relax, Song Ji-hyo gave him another difficult problem!
"Then, what about my regular MC of the RM program?"
Xu Zhixuan wanted to say that he would quit directly, but he knew that if he did so, it would obviously make Song Ji-hyo unhappy. Once Song Ji-hyo was unhappy, Xu Zhixuan would have to hug the blanket by himself. Moreover, as mentioned earlier, he could not push Song Ji-hyo too hard at this time.
Xu Zhixuan thought about it and decided, "Let's continue for the time being. After I get pregnant, I will quit!"
He had three reasons for doing so. First, he could not push Song Ji-hyo too hard. Moreover, the RM program would not show Song Ji-hyo being intimate with a man. Everyone knew that Song Ji-hyo was Xu Zhixuan's wife. Even if they did not know her, they would not have the guts to do so!
Second, Xu Zhixuan was worried about SBS Television. First, he quit RM, which caused the ratings to plummet. After much difficulty, Song Ji-hyo and Xu Zhixuan got married, which caused another wave of excitement. Even during the honeymoon period between Song Ji-hyo and Xu Zhixuan, the female celebrities in Song Ji-hyo's class who were prettier than Song Ji-hyo, more popular than Song Ji-hyo, and so on, could not replace Song Ji-hyo's position.
Third, Xu Zhixuan was worried about Yoo Jae-seok and the others. Although without Song Ji-hyo's RM, which lost part of its excitement, with Yoo Jae-seok's ability, he would definitely find a way. However, if he suddenly asked Song Ji-hyo to quit, even if Yoo Jae-seok was a god, he would not be able to solve this mess. He could only proceed gradually!
When they walked out of the room, Xu Zhixuan and Song Ji-hyo regained their smiles. Song Ji-hyo's face was especially rosy. It was obvious that she had been nourished by something and looked radiant. Xu Zhixuan also breathed a sigh of relief when he was able to achieve a perfect balance this time. It could be said that he had already considered retiring for a while, and a part of it was due to his family's efforts.
After all, Song Ji-hyo was not young anymore. His family had been urging Xu Zhixuan to hurry up and have another child. He could finally understand the pressure that Song Ji-hyo was under. It was fine when he was in China, but after he returned to China, Lim Eun-jung would visit him every day and nag at him. He believed that if this continued, he would become Sun Wukong!
Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was already October!
South Korea could be said to be bustling with activity. One could see parades everywhere on the streets. Many celebrities that were rarely seen appeared in the parade. However, the parade was the largest and had the highest number of celebrities. It was Park Jinhye's parade!
That's right. The candidates for the South Korean presidential election had already begun their campaign. Posters of these candidates could be seen everywhere on the streets and alleys. They even got out of their cars and shook hands with passersby. A grand show had begun.
It could be said that Xu Zhixuan, in order to pull up this batch of celebrities for Park Jinhye, had a different face every day. These celebrities were all outstanding in terms of their morals and skills. Those with flaws would not even appear. For this, Xu Zhixuan had spent countless favors. Luckily, Li Shunjai was there to ensure that Park Jinhye's lineup of celebrities would never repeat itself!
The other candidates naturally saw the influence of celebrities and started to follow suit. However, their quality could not be compared to those that Xu Zhixuan roped in. It could be said that all the celebrities in the South Korean entertainment industry, as long as they were not from an entertainment company under the opposing camp, Xu Zhixuan had paid them a visit. He had even gathered all the high-quality celebrities and signed contracts with them. He was afraid that they would go back on their word.
"Brother, look! Zhixiao Nu is in the newspapers. He's walking with Ms. Park Jinhye!"
Today's filming location was an old Korean nightclub in Nightless City. Luckily, Xu Zhixuan had taught Han Yongcheng to play with the theme of a nightclub. The entire nightclub was still the same as it was 10 years ago. It had a nostalgic theme, which was perfect for the filming location of the movie.
When Xu Zhixuan received the script, he saw that Ding Qing was treating them to a street side Chinese restaurant. Xu Zhixuan was furious. He pointed it out and asked Park Sunjeong to change it immediately.
Wasn't this a joke? This was a gang that had been cleaned up and the company was even listed. Ding Qing was also one of the candidates for the presidency. How could she treat her subordinates to a meal in such a shabby place? Not to mention the atmosphere was not right. Based on their status, it was too degrading. Who didn't want to save face?
"Yes, thank you, Guangzhu!"
Xu Zhixuan smiled as he took the newspaper from Lee Kwang-soo. There was a photo on the front page. The person in the middle was Park Jinhye, who was wearing sportswear. She looked like she was close to the people. On her left was Yin Zhiyuan. Yin Zhiyuan was always present at the demonstrations. On the right was Song Ji-hyo. Because of Xu Zhixuan, Park Jinhye kept Song Ji-hyo company along the way.
Even her attitude shocked Song Ji-hyo. The Park Jinhye in front of her didn't treat her like someone who was running for the presidency. Instead, she treated her like an elder. At this moment, Song Ji-hyo finally understood how influential Xu Zhixuan was. He could even make Park Jinhye act like this.
If Xu Zhixuan knew Song Ji-hyo's thoughts, he would definitely laugh. No matter how influential Xu Zhixuan was, it was impossible for him to influence Park Jinhye. To make her act like this, the most important thing was that she really saw Xu Zhixuan as her junior.
More than ten years of support. Even a stranger would be touched. Not to mention, in order to support Park Jinhye, Xu Zhixuan not only helped her win allies, he even gave her political funds to pave the way. It was normal for Park Jinhye to have such an attitude.
"Looks like I made the right move!"
The influence of a celebrity had indeed reached Xu Zhixuan's expectations. Even other people started to imitate her. It would be a lie to say that he wasn't proud. After all, the demonstrations in his previous life didn't have such tricks. Looking at the support for Park Jinhye now, it was simply one-sided.
