Peninsula: The Deepest Affection in Jiangnan

Chapter 124 Xu Youqing: Huh?

Normally, recording should be done in one take.

The process takes a long time because the producer will record various vocal tones and high and low notes, and then select the most suitable melody and lyrics for the song through screening.

During this period, Ido will be quite tired, as singing the same sentence repeatedly in different ways is quite exhausting.

But this is also part of the industrialization of Kpop today, which is no longer the way of doing it in one take and then choosing one to record.

But Shen Yu had a standard answer in mind, and he had his own ideas about the song "Thank You".

This led Liu Zhimin to find that, under Shen Yu's guidance, she was able to sing a version that she was very satisfied with.

The time difference between recording songs for groups at SM Entertainment was significant, by many hours.

After taking off his monitoring headphones and walking out of the recording studio, Liu Zhimin didn't even feel the usual fatigue. Instead, he seemed to have the same lingering enjoyment he felt when he went to karaoke with Winter.

Watching Shen Yu still wearing his monitoring headphones and listening to her previous recordings, Liu Zhimin felt that Shen Yu had become even more intriguing to her.

as well as.

"Senior Shen Yu."

'

It seems that monitoring headphones really can't hear outside sounds.

She quietly took out her phone and snapped a picture of Shen Yu's profile as he worked.

Put your phone away.

Liu Zhimin approached Shen Yu's side.

"Senior Shen Yu."

She gently poked Shen Yu's shoulder with her finger.

"Um?"

Shen Yu took off his headphones and looked up at her.

Ordinary movements, even somewhat unintentional.

But it was precisely this attitude, which Shen Yu didn't find particularly problematic, that Liu Zhimin perceived differently.

When you look at someone through a filter, they seem so wonderful no matter what.

"Senior! I want to know, was this song written for me?"

No problem, the main issue is that we initially thought Krystal would sing better, but Krystal's company is difficult to manage.

Now that Shen Yu has listened to Liu Zhimin's singing, he is very satisfied with the feeling that Jung Soo-jung's voice brought, which is even more comfortable than he had imagined.

The natural answer was also —

"That's right, it was written for you," Shen Yu said definitively.

The song and the person are a perfect match!

Liu Zhimin pursed her lips. "You know—you know about my recent predicament and what happened in the past, right?"

No problem. Shen Yu heard a lot of gossip about SM Entertainment from Xu Youqing. It was mainly because the internal strife at SM Entertainment had recently come to an end. Last night, when they were drinking, Xu Youqing told him a lot of random things.

Surprisingly, Shen Yu remembered everything. Especially the girl in front of him, whose position was even more awkward. She had even experienced a lot of cyberbullying when she debuted, and now her company was almost really finished.

"I know that too." Shen Yu nodded, even though he had just heard it last night.

"Then—why did you do this, senior?"

"???"

Shen Yu was filled with questions, but being used to his position as a superior, he usually resorted to cryptic remarks and expressions when he didn't know the answer, letting his subordinates understand the meaning even he didn't know.

In fact, this skill is one that all company leaders in China must learn and master.

Looking at Shen Yu's expression, Liu Zhimin's hand gripped the edge of his jeans pocket and twisted, his heart filled with inner turmoil.

"Senior—yes, you wouldn't say that to me, would you? But I know what you're thinking! So I can tell you what's in my heart!"

Looking into Shen Yu's eyes, Liu Zhimin could sense a certain emotion brewing within him.

Shen Yu just felt that Liu Zhimin's face was surprisingly small. Last time, when they were a bit far apart, he didn't notice it, but today, at such a close distance, his beautiful and delicate features and small face, plus the embellishment of the moles on his cheeks and the corners of his mouth, were striking.

As expected, you really have to meet Ido in person to know just how beautiful she is!

Shen Yu silently sighed to himself. He had seen many beautiful girls, but each girl's beauty was different, which was truly a pleasant thing.

Besides the sexual tension brought by a standard figure, appearance really accounts for a large part of the equation, and it's not a simple matter of one plus one equals two.

Such a beautiful figure combined with such a face truly evokes admiration.

"Shen Yu i".

"Mmm." Shen Yu nodded. Beautiful children are pleasing to the ear no matter what they say, and Shen Yu was willing to spend time listening to her talk about unrelated topics.

This isn't the first time I've played the role of a confidant!

Liu Zhimin seemed to have made up his mind.

"Perhaps I was being presumptuous, but I'm also afraid of missing such a rare opportunity to get so close to you."

"Mhm." Shen Yu continued to nod. That's true. It's rare that SM Entertainment has been in internal turmoil recently. Otherwise, Shen Yu felt that SM Entertainment would not have agreed to his idea of ​​collaborating with Yoo Ji-min on a song.

I'll only agree with this kind of co-branded marketing once we've squeezed every last drop of profit out of Aespa.

Or perhaps he actually wins a Grammy, in which case SM Entertainment would probably be more willing to agree.

Companies love to piggyback on others' fame.

"Shen Yu, I really like you!"

"Should we keep seeing each other?"

Even though Shen Yu was the same age as her, Liu Zhimin felt that he possessed the composure and sense of security that only mature men have.

Last time in the lounge, Shen Yu's gentlemanly manners and mature, steady, and considerate care truly moved her.

as well as.

This song, written by Shen Yu for herself, seemed to resonate deeply with Liu Zhimin. She realized that Shen Yu understood her very well. The feeling of being understood and cared for relieved her of the pressure of being the leader and the burden of being an idol—Karina. She seemed to have become the ordinary Liu Zhimin again.

Actually, despite saying all that, Liu Zhimin wasn't thinking about that much at the moment; all the mixed feelings he had were accumulated little by little.

Perhaps there was a catalyst for the golden certificate?

Until now.

"I enjoy your care and I am happy to feel your tenderness. Although it may seem a bit greedy, I also want to know more about you."

"I'm sorry! I might have been a little impulsive, but this is my honest feeling, not a joke. I really enjoy being with you, and I hope you can understand my feelings."

No, has the cheat ability for attacking Tokyo girls mutated?

Shen Yu was at a loss for words.

"Beep beep beep beep."

"Click~"

The sound of the studio door being opened.

"Shen Yu, SM Entertainment has replied. I came to ask you about it—"

Xu Youqing walked in while talking, and then saw Liu Zhimin standing next to Shen Yu, her face slightly flushed, and she seemed quite nervous.

"Ah! Everyone's here, that was quick." Xu Youqing nodded. "Then you guys get back to work, I'll be going now."

Without hesitation, the professional agent backed out the door as if he hadn't seen anything, and then closed the door behind him.

"Click~" The sound of a lock clicking shut.
