Chapter 24 This man has quite a temper.
In the early morning, warm yellow sunlight peeked into the bedroom through the gaps in the curtains on both sides.
Today, both 12 and 25 will be sunny.
Chen Ran frowned and slowly opened his eyes.
What I felt before my consciousness was the weight on my body.
He looked down.
Jessica rested her head on his chest, wrapped her left arm around his waist, and draped one leg over his.
She seemed to be sleeping quite soundly, and unconsciously pursed her lips, rubbing her cheek against Chen Ran's chest twice.
The hand that was resting on Chen Ran's right chest unconsciously clenched twice, as if it felt quite nice, and clenched twice more.
Chen Ran sighed helplessly and withdrew his left hand, which had been resting on Jessica's slender waist in his sleep, slightly.
A slight numbness came from the left side of my body, but I didn't dare to move for a moment.
He looked to his left.
Jessica's blanket was lying haphazardly to the side, not covering her at all.
How did this woman manage to get through it all?
Chen Ran looked down at Jessica and tried to pull his left hand back little by little.
Seemingly sensing the movement beneath her, Jessica frowned and slowly opened her eyes.
When Chen Ran's face came into view, the faint murderous intent in her eyes vanished instantly, and she blinked in a daze.
Chen Ran looked at her and blinked.
Two seconds later, instead of the screams she had on the morning the houses were merged, Jessica's reaction was remarkably calm, almost too calm.
She asked naturally, "What time is it?"
Chen Ran relaxed his tense body and shook his head.
"I don't know, let me check my phone."
"it is good."
Jessica responded in her sweet, childlike voice, then naturally rolled over and got out of Chen Ran's arms.
The left leg that had been resting on Chen Ran's waist also came off.
During the process, Chen Ran's body, which had been relaxed, tensed up again instantly.
He quickly turned to the side and grabbed his phone from the bedside table to distract himself.
It's almost 8:30.
"Oh~"
Jessica stretched slightly, her eyes filled with languor and contentment.
She slept well last night, sleeping with Chen Ran as her pillow, which seemed quite nice.
Are you going out today?
"Um."
Chen Ran replied, "I'll go to HD Company to discuss something with Representative Yoon, and then see if Ms. Kim Eun-sook is at the coffee shop so I can have a chat with her."
Kim Eun-sook had told him during the interview that she usually wrote scripts at the coffee shop across from the company.
Chen Ran planned to try his luck today and try to get closer to her.
"Okay, I also have a magazine photoshoot today."
Jessica picked up her phone, glanced at the message, and then turned to look at Chen Ran.
"I'm going to wash up now."
"it is good."
Chen Ran nodded, secretly relieved.
He was just wondering how to find an excuse to stay in bed a little longer.
Jessica got out of bed, ignoring her pajamas that had slipped down her left shoulder, and swayed her slender waist as she walked toward the bathroom.
After taking two steps, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly.
Young people tend to be more irritable in the morning.
and...
Chen Ran was indeed not a weak man, and she was very satisfied.
---
More than half an hour later, the two, having washed up, sat down at the dining table.
Chen Ran was too lazy to make anything complicated for breakfast, so she just had a simple sandwich with milk.
Jessica took a bite of her sandwich and then glanced at Chen Ran next to her.
Seeing that he kept his head down, typing on his phone with one hand, she raised an eyebrow and asked casually, "Is someone looking for you?"
Chen Ran nodded: "Yes, Jessica Jung messaged me last night. She found out from Yoona and the others that I'm a screenwriter."
"oh."
As long as it's not Kim Tae-yeon who's looking for Chen Ran, it's fine.
The message Jessica sent was exactly the same as what he had just told Jessica.
Jessica Jung: Yoona and the others said they ran into you at SBS TV station, and you're actually a screenwriter.
Chen Ran replied: Yes, are you surprised?
Jessica Jung also seemed to be looking at her phone. The message was quickly read and a reply popped up in the chat box.
Jessica Jung: When I asked you what your profession was last time, why didn't you just say you were a screenwriter or a freelancer?
Chen Ran blinked and replied: You didn't ask in detail either.
When Jessica Jung asked him this question last time, he seemed to be busy eating and just gave a casual reply.
The message was instantly marked as read, but there was no reply for a long time.
"Is she angry with me?" Chen Ran wondered.
Jessica Jung was indeed quite angry.
She gripped her phone tightly, gritted her teeth, and her breathing became rapid.
I didn't ask what it meant.
I didn't ask in detail, couldn't you have explained it more clearly?
But she didn't get angry at Chen Ran.
Ultimately, she and Chen Ran are just ordinary friends at the moment, and she has no right to be angry.
She pursed her lips and tapped her fingers on the phone screen.
Yoona said that the script you wrote is ready to be filmed with SBS.
Chen Ran raised an eyebrow.
Could she be asking if there are any suitable roles for her and want to audition?
Jessica's voice rang out from the side: "What did Jessica Jung talk to you about?"
Chen Ran looked up at her: "You're asking me about 'School 2013'."
"Oh, so she probably wanted to ask if you have any suitable roles for Krystal."
Chen Ran paused for a moment: "Didn't I mean to ask if there were any suitable roles for her?"
Jessica took a sip of milk and smiled dismissively: "Impossible. When it comes to acting, Jessica Jung is very self-aware."
Seemingly to verify Jessica's words, Jessica Jung sent another message.
I wanted to ask you if there's a suitable role for my sister, Soo-jung, in the script. If so, could you give her an audition?
Tsk, that's really true.
Chen Ran gave Jessica a thumbs up.
Jessica smiled smugly.
I'm the future Jessica Jung, how could I not know her?
Although Jessica Jung has done many foolish things, her love for her younger sister Krystal Jung has never been in doubt.
Apart from...
Jessica tightened her grip on the milk glass with her right hand.
Aside from not fully considering the impact on her younger sister when she left the group, which effectively led to her being sidelined by the company and leaving her favorite stage at the young age of 20.
Jessica turned to Chen Ran: "If you think there's a suitable role for Soojung in the script, then give her a chance to audition."
Seeing the guilt in her eyes, Chen Ran paused slightly, then nodded and said:
"Okay, got it."
He looked down and replied to Jessica Jung: I'll take a look later and let you know if there's a suitable role.
Jessica Jung immediately replied: Okay, thank you!
Just as Chen Ran was about to turn off his phone, Jessica Jung sent him another message.
I'll treat you to a meal next time I have time.
Chen Ran raised an eyebrow.
Eating again?
Without thinking, he replied: No need.
On the other end of the phone, Jessica Jung looked at the message and gritted her teeth again.
He rejected me so decisively, am I really that unattractive?
I just don't believe it.
She thought for a moment and typed: When is your birthday? If it hasn't happened yet, I'll give you a gift then.
He tapped send, paused for a second, and continued typing: "Don't refuse. I don't like owing favors to others. Either I'll treat you to a meal, or I'll give you a gift."
If I put it that way, Chen Ran probably won't refuse, right?
A few seconds later, Chen Ran's reply popped up in the chat box:
[May 30th]
"May 30th..."
Jessica Jung frowned and said softly, "Isn't that the same birthday as Yoona?"
"What? We share the same birthday?"
No sooner had she finished speaking than a voice suddenly rang out above her head.
Jessica Jung looked up abruptly and saw that Yoona had walked up to her at some point and was looking at her with a puzzled expression.
