Chapter 94: Day 68 of Their Relationship: Wu Yunxi was focused...

Wu Yunxi was focused on her work, and Quan Jiyong was also focused on practice. Although their contact had become less frequent today, neither of them let unspoken matters interfere with their lives.

Quan Jiyong and Wu Yunxi, though sometimes wondering if their companionship wasn't enough, worked diligently and diligently, reaching a consensus to become better versions of themselves, and not let the relationship be sustained by one person's sacrifice.

This seemingly fair relationship wasn't entirely fair.

Wu Yunxi always had more time than Quan Jiyong, and more often than not, Wu Yunxi had to accommodate Quan Jiyong's schedule. But the truth is, as one can only say, one knows the difference.

Wu Yunxi never felt that her dedication to this relationship required a perfect reciprocation. Of course, she had seen Quan Jiyong working late to pick her up at the airport, driving to see her even though she had work the next day, and driving to her overnight after she caught a cold.

If all this effort doesn't prove that Quan Zhilong is also investing in this relationship, then what can prove it?

Quan Zhilong finished practice early today. Everyone else had other work commitments in the afternoon, so they practiced until around 3:00 before going their separate ways.

Quan Zhilong thought that Wu Yunxi hadn't exchanged much small talk with her friends at home. After making plans to have dinner together next time, Quan Zhilong drove straight home.

Wu Yunxi, after deciding on the meal, ate what seemed like lunch. She slept quite a bit today, not taking a nap but sitting in the living room.

When Quan Zhilong returned, Wu Yunxi was bored, playing the piano in the living room.

Quan Zhilong had brought the piano home. Wu Yunxi wasn't very good at it, having learned a little as a child, but she had also been learning a little with Quan Zhilong recently.

Quan Zhilong wasn't a very competent teacher, and his teaching was often disjointed. Fortunately, although not proficient, Wu Yunxi still knew how to read musical notation. Even though she was a slow learner, she could still play a lot of songs by following the music.

Wu Yunxi wasn't particularly good at pop music, preferring to play classical music. Quan Ji-yong wanted to teach Wu Yunxi some of his own music, but she felt her brain couldn't hold so much. She had, however, learned a song without Quan Ji-yong's knowledge, hoping to play it for him on special occasions.

"Oppa, you're back!"

Wu Yunxi stopped what she was doing the moment she noticed Quan Ji-yong.

"Hey~ Wanna go to the supermarket together?"

Quan Ji-yong was making breakfast this morning and noticed the refrigerator was empty. When he mentioned this to Wu Yunxi this afternoon, Wu Yunxi suggested she go later.

"Okay."

Although Wu Yunxi had promised Quan Ji-yong she'd go later, it had dragged on until now, when Quan Ji-yong was already home. Still, the two of them had a blast going to the supermarket together.

When Quan Ji-yong went to the concert rehearsal, Wu Yunxi tagged along. She'd originally planned to meet someone, but they'd stood her up, so she decided to just go with Quan Ji-yong to watch the rehearsal.

"Oppa, how long are you rehearsing for this time?"

Wu Yunxi had only seen rehearsals for music shows. She hadn't seen any of Kwon Ji-yong's recent practice sessions, and she wasn't familiar with concerts, so she asked.

"Today, we need to test the lighting. It's going to take quite a while. If you get tired, you can play with your phone for a while."

"Okay."

Wu Yunxi often didn't understand Kwon Ji-yong's work, so she didn't give him any orders. Her main focus was to be his companion. Of course, she often understood what Kwon Ji-yong wanted and would readily provide it while accompanying him.

Kwon Ji-yong often felt that work went incredibly smoothly as long as Wu Yunxi was around. This was partly because Wu Yunxi had learned about Kwon Ji-yong's work because of him, and she understood what he was trying to convey.

Wu Yunxi had no idea what Kwon Ji-yong was thinking at the moment. After all, she was busy with the important task of selecting models for his next photoshoot.

Most of the subjects Wu Yunxi photographed were girls, and this time's theme was no exception. It's just that most of the models he'd photographed previously already had work commitments, and Wu Yunxi actually wanted to cast someone new this time, but she was a little hesitant.

Quan Ji-yong noticed Wu Yunxi's frown, unsure what was going on.

"What's wrong?"

Quan Ji-yong leaned over to Wu Yunxi and took a look. There was nothing special on the phone screen, and it was impossible to tell what Wu Yunxi was worried about.

"Oppa, who do you think would be a good choice for this shoot?"

Wu Yunxi had discussed the shoot with Quan Ji-yong and reviewed his plans, even offering some suggestions. Of course, Wu Yunxi had chosen the right person and incorporated them into his own proposal.

"Haven't you decided yet?"

Quan Ji-yong did know a lot of people, but they weren't all in the same industry, so he couldn't say for sure. Furthermore, Wu Yunxi wasn't considering female idols within the industry this time, and of course, he wasn't someone who could collaborate just because he wanted to. For various reasons, Wu Yunxi still hadn't settled on a single candidate.

"Yeah, it's really confusing!"

"Take your time, or maybe go to the school and take a look?"

Kwon Ji-yong thought about some of the trainees at the company being found by scouts from schools, so he suggested.

"What?"

Wu Yunxi laughed at Kwon Ji-yong's suggestion and stopped worrying about it.

Arriving at the concert venue, Kwon Ji-yong didn't have much time to talk to Wu Yunxi. The entire staff was busy preparing for the concert, and as the main character, she needed to make sure every detail was in place.

Wu Yunxi didn't follow Kwon Ji-yong everywhere, knowing he would be very busy today and that following behind might disrupt his work. To avoid disturbing him and still be able to see everything going on, Wu Yunxi found a seat. Wu

Yunxi didn't just sit there playing with her phone; she watched Kwon Ji-yong test the lighting over and over again, watching him frown in dissatisfaction and then go back to the staff to adjust things. In her busy schedule, she unknowingly took a lot of photos, though she mostly just looked at them herself.

Even so, Wu Yunxi's phone was filled with numerous photos of Kwon Ji-yong. Whenever she saw him working, she couldn't help but snap away. Besides her phone, she'd upload them to her computer when she got home, and even had a USB drive dedicated to Kwon Ji-yong's photos.

It was a way for Wu Yunxi to document her life, and she also wanted to keep more of them, so that when they grew older, they could look back and recall

the events of that year.

After snapping a few photos, Wu Yunxi flipped through the album and recalled the emotions she'd felt while taking them. Although Wu Yunxi sometimes complained about Kwon Ji-yong being clingy, thinking about it now, she felt like she was on the verge of falling in love.

Looking at Gwon Ji-yong interacting with the staff on stage, then at the Gwon Ji-yong captured in her camera, Wu Yunxi simply felt that life was truly wonderful these days. She couldn't put her finger on why, but she felt happy every day.

Gwon Ji-yong was never distracted when he was working diligently, but she knew Wu Yunxi was always there, and she felt incredibly at ease. Today's work had gone incredibly smoothly. After finalizing the lighting and music, Gwon Ji-yong rehearsed every bit of the routine before wrapping up.

However, after the final encore, Gwon Ji-yong didn't immediately leave the stage. Wu Yunxi was a bit far away from him, and the lights were dimming. Gwon Ji-yong lowered his head slightly, so Wu Yunxi couldn't even make out his expression.

But just from a single glance, Wu Yunxi could tell he was feeling sad.

The others were already packing up, and Wu Yunxi made her way between the staff. The concert stage was quite high, and Wu Yunxi looked up at Gwon Ji-yong from below, then thought for a moment and prepared to climb up.

Fortunately, Quan Zhilong noticed Wu Yunxi's action. Although he didn't understand, he still reached out and grabbed Wu Yunxi's arm when Wu Yunxi was about to come up. With a little force, Wu Yunxi was already standing in front of Quan Zhilong.

In fact, there was a staircase on the side of the stage, but Wu Yunxi felt that this way was faster. When he made up his mind to do this, he was also glad that he was wearing clothes and pants today and would not be exposed.

"Why are you coming up suddenly?"

Quan Zhilong asked such a question when he saw Wu Yunxi who had already stood firmly.

"What were you thinking about just now, Oppa?"

Wu Yunxi did not answer Quan Zhilong's question, but asked Quan Zhilong a question instead.

This question made Quan Zhilong at a loss as to how to answer, but when he met Wu Yunxi's eyes, he felt that he had infinite courage.

"I think the stage for one person is really huge."

After the rehearsal of the last song, Quan Zhilong remembered his last concert before enlisting in the army. At that time, the eldest brother in the team had already enlisted, while the others were still there, but now he was alone. Although the group had not disbanded, it was too difficult for the three of them to put on an album or hold a concert together without being in the same company.

"It seems that people are drifting apart."
