nd Taemin are holding microphones, laughing and hosting.To his right, today twelve members of EXO stood in two rows as stand-ins.They made an effort to manage their expressions, keeping smiles plaster..."Oppa, this is my very close childhood friend, Yuan from EXO."

"Jingyuan, this is what I told you about before..."

Two people disguised themselves and walked out of the side door of **'s building. They hadn't taken a few steps when they met the hip-hop senior who had just spoken on the phone with Choi Soo-ri, Jae-ho.

He was driving a gleaming modern sedan, rolled down the driver's side window, and greeted the two people through the car door.

Because he was sitting there, his height unknown, wearing sunglasses that obscured his eyes, the only thing visible was that unremarkable face, yet it emanated a genuine hip-hop vibe.

just be cool.

After Cui Xueli's introduction, the two nodded lightly and greeted each other.

Ji Jingyuan saw the other person clearly frown, unsure if it was because he felt his greeting to his senior was perfunctory, or if they were unhappy with Ji Jingyuan's artistic style being so different from theirs, standing next to Cui Xueli.

But Zhai Hao didn't say much, a somewhat exaggerated smile quickly appeared on his face, and he chatted with Cui Xueli.

He knew Cui Xueli had finally gotten a chance to take a vacation, so he once again invited her out to play and enthusiastically pulled Chi Jingyuan along too. With more people, it would be even more lively.

But Choi Soo-ri was very clear about her main purpose this time, and ultimately refused the offer, saying she would talk about it next time when she had time.

Chi Jingyuan had been smiling beside them the whole time, not saying a word. He just listened silently to the conversation between the two.

He also noticed that when Choi Se-ri refused, Jae-ho's lips twitched slightly, looking rather displeased.

This senior figure doesn't seem to have a deep understanding of social maneuvering, or perhaps they don't intentionally manage their expressions. Many of their thoughts and feelings are evident on their face, even if they quickly retract them. Their true intentions are easily discernible.

He could also be more hip hop, and more real.

"It's alright, then let's do it next time. There'll be plenty of time later anyway. You and your family go have dinner, just be careful not to get caught by the paparazzi. After all, EXO's popularity is really scary these days, haha..."

Zai Hao's short expression of displeasure was immediately withdrawn, and he put on a smile again. He waved his hand nonchalantly and said a few things, finally cracking a joke and laughing himself.

They said a few final words, and the two parted ways, waving goodbye before walking in the opposite direction, farther and farther away from Jaeho's car.

As they approached a bend, Ji Jingyuan glanced back and saw Zaihao staring at their backs from the driver's seat. Their eyes met in mid-air.

Chi Jingyuan's eyes curved into a crescent moon as he smiled and nodded at the other person. He turned the corner, his line of sight blocked.

…………

What do you think of him

In the private room of the barbecue restaurant that Cui Xueli had reserved, as the two were eating heartily, after having said a lot of comforting words before, and after a moment of silence, she suddenly asked.

"How's it going That hip hop legend"

Qi Jingyuan picked up a piece of meat and put it on the grill, then looked at her.

Of course, he has been texting me a lot lately and his intentions are pretty clear. Can you help me figure out what to do

Speaking of this, Choi Se-ri put down her chopsticks and looked at Ji-yeong with a pleading expression, her eyes sparkling.

"Don't do that, feelings are your own business, other people's opinions don't really matter… I basically won't let others help me reference anything on this."

Chi Jingyuan puckered his lips and shook his head, directly indicating that he didn't want to participate.

"Oh, it's you! I'm different, I love hearing other people's opinions, especially yours!"

Cui Xueli was getting impatient. She grabbed Chi Jingyuan's wrist, making him put down his chopsticks, giving him a look that said "don't even think about eating until you talk."

"Senior, what you said could be misunderstood. What do you mean by 'especially yours' Are you filming a TV series"

Ji Jingyuan looked at Cui Xueli with some helplessness: "This sounds like you think I've been secretly in love with you and specially found a man to test my feelings. This is the plot of a third-rate TV drama."

"Aren't we close It's totally normal to ask for your opinion!"

And even if I had a good impression of you, I wouldn't date you.

"Choi Se-ri furrowed her brows and looked at Ji Kyeong-won, saying very seriously, "From my debut to now, there have been many people chasing after me without stopping. There are all kinds of actors, idols, and seniors. For me, it's easy to find a partner."

But being able to chat frequently and help each other, even venting deeply hidden heart feelings at will, is a very rare kind of friend. In my opinion, this kind of close friendship is much more important than having a boyfriend who breaks up after a short time together.

"...

" Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

Seeing Cui Xueli's serious expression, Ji Jingyuan couldn't help but purse his lips and gently nodded.

"Well, knowing your opinion is important, right Don't you want to help a senior figure out a plan"

Then Choi Seol-ri, having expressed her heart's content, seemed to relax a great deal. The seriousness faded from her face, replaced by a smile as she picked up a piece of delicious meat and offered it to Ji Kyeong-won. "Consider this a bribe for my dear friend and advisor," she chuckled, watching him with amusement.

"Just based on what I saw today, that senior left a rather average impression on me. I'm not talking about their appearance."

"Ji Jingyuan also became serious. After deliberating for a while, he looked at Cui Xueli:"

"If you really have the time, slow down a little, and I can help you investigate."

"As expected of family! Alright, I'll do as you say."

………………

After the first week's broadcast ratings for "The Heirs" were released, SBS was somewhat disappointed. However, after reviewing the script and communicating with the production team, they understood that the show's momentum would build in the latter half. Therefore, instead of reducing support for the production team, they increased the promotional efforts.

Since the second episode aired on September 10th, the main cast members have been non-stop. Besides filming, they've been doing interviews, photo shoots, and appearing on talk shows to promote the series.

And on the 11th, a formal television drama press conference was held, inviting many media outlets to attend and film on site. In order to attract more attention, several lead actors spared no effort at the press conference. They not only answered various questions seriously but also shared some interesting stories about their private moments during the filming process.

To improve ratings, both TV stations, production teams and actors have made a lot of effort.

EXO flew to Xia Guo yesterday for a series of activities. This trip will take at least more than a week to return. Without the group's pool Jingyuan, this period can fully devote to filming and publicity.

>Time turned to October 16th, the day for the second week broadcast of "The Heirs".

After the ratings for the third episode came out, everyone on the production team felt a chill.

10.8%, compared to the second episode, not only did it fail to rise but also showed a decline.

The situation was completely different from what the crew had expected. When the number came out, the atmosphere on set fell to an icy low point. It was a day of deathly silence.

Too busy and too lazy to look at the online black fans' revelry and celebration, Chi Jingyuan and countless supporters of him waited for the broadcast of the fourth episode.

On the morning of the 18th, they fidgeted with anxiety. They were on pins and needles, their hearts pounding. When the time finally came to reveal the ratings for that episode, a number that brought joy and excitement to everyone.

This episode's viewership curve saw a very noticeable increase. Compared to yesterday, it jumped by almost half.

The fourth episode's viewership rating was 14.9%.
