Chapter 180 Substitution
"Are you ready?"
"I"
Park So Yeon should have been very happy when she received Huang Xu's call and responded quickly, but now she suddenly hesitated.
She had been waiting for Huang Xu's call for a long time.
Since she went to see Huang Xu last time and was persuaded by him, she looked forward to receiving Huang Xu's call every day.
Then they can take their own group and jump out of the current company, use the evidence they have prepared long ago to clear themselves up, and let them stand on the stage again.
But now that she really received a call from Huang Xu and heard the news, she hesitated.
Not because of anything else, but because according to Huang Xu's plan, they need to make some sacrifices. They need someone to pretend to be James' girlfriend and provide James with a motive to buy them, or a reason for outsiders to believe them. .
Therefore, they need to make some sacrifices.
This plan is very simple to say and very bloody.
But this is also the simplest and most reasonable reason Huang Xu can think of.
After all, it is human nature for a man to love a woman, no matter where it is placed, and it is easier for people to accept it.
Park So Yeon also agreed to this method when Huang Xu said it.
But she was so hesitant now because she suddenly remembered her boyfriend.
Yes, her boyfriend.
Park So-yeon actually has a boyfriend, and although it is still in the confidentiality period, she has been secretly dating her boyfriend for more than two years, and their relationship has always been stable.
During her most difficult period, her boyfriend was with her and encouraged her to persevere.
Now she was asked to pretend to be another person's girlfriend, and she might have to keep pretending for a long time in the future. She was a little worried that her boyfriend wouldn't accept it.
That's why she suddenly hesitated.
However, Huang Xu was still in excitement at this time and did not notice this. Instead, he kept talking about the next arrangements.
It wasn't until he talked for a long time without getting a response from Park Zhaoyan that he discovered the problem, so he asked softly:
"Park So Yeon xi, do you have any questions?"
"Well, there are a few problems."
Park Zhaoyan heard Huang Xu's inquiry and quickly woke up from the tangle just now, so she said to Huang Xu.
"Can you give me a little more time to think about it?"
"Consider?"
Huang Xu was a little surprised when he heard Park Zhaoyan's words.
Helping them terminate the company contract, signing into their new company, and helping their team clean up their reputation, isn't this what they have always dreamed of?
When we met a few days ago, she was still pleading with herself to find a way to help them.
Why are you suddenly hesitating now?
Is there a new way out now?
Or is something happening that I don't know about?
However, Huang Xu did not continue to think about what happened, but directly made his tone a little tougher and continued to persuade the other party.
"Park So Yeon xi, it's a rare opportunity now. I believe you also know that your boss is looking for new investment, right? If he finds it, then I won't be able to help you."
"And after what happened last year, you should also know your company's code of conduct. They will not help you whitewash it."
"I understand."
Park Zhaoyan also heard the change in Huang Xu's tone, and became a little anxious at this time.
"I'll go over to you and explain to you face to face."
"Okay, come here."
After Huang Xu heard Park So Yeon's request to meet, he had no objection and asked her to come directly.
After all, he is now a little confused about Park So Yeon's change in attitude.
He also wanted to know what happened to make her change like this.
After Park So Yeon heard Huang Xu's permission, she quickly expressed her attitude.
"Okay, I'll go downstairs to find you now."
After all, the only person who can and is willing to help them now is Huang Xu himself.
She didn't want to miss this life-saving straw either.
But Huang Xu's next words surprised her.
"I don't live there anymore. Just wait a moment. I'll go back now."
"????"
"Aren't you downstairs?"
"Yes, please wait a moment, I will contact you when I arrive."
After hanging up the phone, Park Zhaoyan looked at the phone blankly, obviously a little surprised by what Huang Xu just said.
In the past, Huang Xu was always downstairs, and would visit him every once in a while.
Although they wouldn't talk much after meeting, she would feel much better even if it was just a simple hello.
After all, Huang Xu was the first person she had been able to help them find a solution to in more than half a year, and who actually provided solutions to their problems.
So on weekdays, although she didn't talk much with Huang Xu, as long as she knew that Huang Xu was still downstairs and nearby, she would have a certain amount of confidence in her heart.
But now that Huang Xu had moved away, she suddenly felt a little panicked.
Half an hour later, Huang Xu was in his apartment in Jiangnan District.
Looking at the slightly messy scene in the apartment due to the move, Huang Xu said apologetically to Park So Yeon behind him:
"Sorry, I haven't tidied up this place since I moved out a few days ago."
"It's okay, but where have you moved now? Aren't you living here well? Why are you moving?"
Park Zhaoyan looked at the already somewhat empty apartment, but was more interested in Huang Xu's latest residence.
"Oh, we moved near Longshan."
"This house is a bit small, there will be more space over there."
As Huang Xu explained, he invited Park So Yeon to sit down on the sofa first, and then began to rummage around the room.
However, after searching for a long time, he could not find any other drinks, so he could only hand it to Park Zhaoyan with a bottle of mineral water.
"This is the only one I have at home now."
"It's okay, white water is fine."
Park Zhaoyan took the mineral water handed over by Huang Xu, opened it and took a sip, then began to explain her concerns.
After Huang Xu finished explaining, he couldn't hold himself any longer and looked at Park Zhaoyan with a solemn expression.
"You mean you have a boyfriend now and have been secretly dating for more than two years?"
"Yes, I'm sorry, but it's true."
Park Zhaoyan lowered her head, not daring to look at Huang Xu's expression.
She actually knows that falling in love is a big taboo for idols of both boy groups and girl groups, and is basically not allowed by the company. Therefore, the average idol will keep it secret when they are in love.
Because they know that once a relationship is exposed, there is a high probability that they will break up and end the relationship. It is rare that they can stay together for a long time after the relationship is exposed.
After all, the exposure of a team member's romantic relationship has a great impact on both teams.
She also wanted to continue to hide this matter, but now that the situation had reached this point, she was not allowed to hide it any longer.
And the most important point is that Huang Xu is helping them now, and she doesn't want Huang Xu to have a bad impression of her and their team because of this incident.
In addition, if he implements Huang Xu's plan, he will have a certain impression of her feelings, and then he will confess to Huang Xu.
Huang Xu looked at Park Zhaoyan who had her head lowered in front of her and did not dare to look at him. The expression on her face was also very complicated at this time.
However, after a brief daze, Huang Xu calmed down and looked at Park Zhaoyan's serious inquiry.
"So what do you think now?"
"I"
Park Zhaoyan also knew at this time that she needed to express her stance in this situation, so after taking a deep breath, she stood up and bowed deeply to Huang Xu.
"I'm sorry. I'm very sorry that I'm only confessing to you now."
"Okay, okay, don't do this, sit down quickly."
Huang Xu saw Park Soyeon standing up and bowing to apologize, with a speechless expression on his face, and then quickly asked Park Soyeon to sit down and talk.
Although he has been in South Korea for a long time now, he still can't accept the Korean people's habit of bowing.
So Huang Xu waited until Park Soyeon sat down and looked at Park Soyeon helplessly.
"Tell me what you are thinking now."
"Do you think you can change it to someone else?"
After Park Zhaoyan was pushed back to the sofa by Huang Xu, she then looked at Huang Xu carefully and put forward her own ideas.
This idea came to her just now while waiting for Huang Xu.
But whether it can work or not, Huang Xu still needs to make a judgment.
When Huang Xu heard Park Soyeon's suggestion, he was also excited at this time, and then looked at Park Soyeon in surprise.
"Change someone else?"
"Yes, change someone else."
Seeing that Huang Xu was already carefully considering his suggestion, Park Zhaoyan also hurriedly explained.
"Since you only need members of our group to come forward, there should be no problem if someone else does it."
"Yes, yes, but who should I replace it with?"
"Do you think Xiaomin is suitable?"
"Park Hyo Min?"
When Huang Xu heard this name, Park Hyo Min began to appear in his mind.
Although the word pure desire does not exist at this time, Park Hyo Min's face and figure are definitely representatives of the pure desire system.
It can be said that Huang Xu was deeply impressed by his pure yet aggressive face and hot figure.
Whether it was her stage performances in her previous life or the photos she often posted online later, she is considered a generous and generous person in the hearts of many fans.
And because Huang Xu has trained with her, he has a clearer understanding of her figure.
But these are digressions. He is now thinking about the feasibility of replacing Park So-yeon with Park Hyo-min.
Although the temporary substitution was a bit abrupt, it actually had no impact.
Anyway, he just needs a Tara member to pretend to be James' girlfriend and give him a legitimate reason to acquire the Tara group.
So after thinking for a moment, he nodded directly and said yes.
But then he started asking Park So Yeon.
"Will Hyomin be willing?"
"Don't worry, Xiaomin will be willing and willing to cooperate with your actions."
After Park So Yeon saw Hwang Wook agreeing, her expression finally relaxed, and she immediately began to express her position on behalf of Park Hyo Min.
At the same time, she began to recall Park Hyo Min's incident in her mind.
When she first debuted, Park Hyo-min was still that introverted character.
When they were still newcomers and not well-known, she often only had a few scenes in the show.
Later, in order to travel more abroad and promote her group more, she began to change her personality and make herself active so that she could have more scenes.
And in order to make the group more topical and attract more people, she even began to change her dressing style, insisted on fitness, and embarked on the path of sexy idol.
All of this is a "sacrifice" made for the group to become famous.
Therefore, she was not worried about whether Park Hyo Min would agree to this matter.
However, although Huang Xu received Park So Yeon's assurance, he did not relax, but looked at Park So Yeon seriously.
"Park Soyeon xi, you should know the seriousness of the matter. If Hyomin is not willing, it will be difficult to proceed with this matter."
"Of course, the most important thing is that if the person is replaced by Park Hyo-min, then I need to confirm her situation."
Huang Xu's expression was a little solemn at this time, and his eyes were staring at Park Zhaoyan.
It's not that he is so cautious, but because of this matter, he has no choice but to be careless.
Before today, he had not had such cautious thoughts.
After all, in his memory, it can be said that these people basically gave everything for their combination to get them to where they were in their previous lives.
Therefore, Huang Xu also believes that when these people are faced with life-saving straws, they will desperately grasp it and will not give up.
But now seeing Park So Yeon's temporary retreat, Huang Xu felt a little uneasy.
Because now the person who needs to pretend to be James' girlfriend is likely to be criticized in the next actions.
It is even very possible that you will encounter cyber violence again.
This is why Huang Xu said before that he needs to make some sacrifices.
He originally thought that Park So Yeon would agree with his idea and put it into action when facing the temptation of the group being able to clear her name.
But she chickened out.
Her behavior made Huang Xu unable to believe her.
He couldn't decide on the candidate just based on her words. He needed to ask Park Hyo Min in person and examine her attitude before making a decision.
Park Zhaoyan, who was opposite Huang Xu, looked at Huang Xu with a serious expression and could only nod her head at this time.
"Okay, I will communicate with her now, and then let her explain it clearly to you in person."
Then he walked into the room, took out his mobile phone and dialed Park Hyomin's number.
"Hyomin, there's something wrong."
