Chapter 26

The three were completely stunned by Li Huanle's kind and big brother-like appearance, and the little girl, who was called "little sister" and was only as tall as Li Huanle's shoulder, also had a darkened face.

Jiang Minjing came to her senses and inwardly called him a big fool, then hurriedly introduced, "Oppa, this is Jeon Baeran Unni, who is here to help Oppa. This is Baeran Unni's friend, Lee Jihyun Unni. The other two are Oppa's peers and relatives~~!"

"Nani~!!!!!!!"

Li Huanle shouted without any dignity, then suddenly leaned in and stared intently at the small girl with a super-loli face named Jeon Baeran, scaring her so much that she almost took two steps back. The girl with a small black mole on her nose, named Lee Jihyun, suddenly stepped to the side, blocking Li Huanle, and her face became somewhat wary.

"Cough, cough, Minjing, you're not being good, right? Have you been filming too many variety shows and playing hidden cameras with Oppa? Do you think I would believe such an obvious lie... lie..."

Li Huanle suddenly couldn't continue. After his memory rapidly processed, he found that both names appeared in his mind. Moreover, there were quite a few images of Lee Jihyun, but perhaps the otaku didn't like loli, so there weren't many memories of Jeon Baeran, though he still remembered her name.

No matter what, the two girls in front of him indeed gave Li Huanle a sense of unexpected joy. He had just been lamenting about the little rascal Zheng Junyoung, and now, besides the loli-faced Jeon Baeran, the girl named Lee Jihyun, who would use the stage name Lee Gyuri in the future, had a bit more memory, though only a little.

Originally, Jeon Baeran had already been scared by Li Huanle. Now, Lee Jihyun, who had mustered the courage to stand in front of Baeran, was also frightened by Li Huanle's fiery gaze.

"Oppa, what are you looking at!!!"

Seeing Oppa's 'pig-like' expression, Jiang Minjing stepped in front of Lee Jihyun, then shouted, and pouted, her right hand flashing out... the divine skill of internal organ strikes.

"Slap!"

Li Huanle slapped Jiang Minjing's right hand away, then came to his senses, pulled Jiang Minjing to his side, and laughed, "Haha, don't misunderstand, I just find it too surprising that you two are the same age. Of course, including me, that makes three. Jeon Baeran looks so young, I'm not lying. I'm sure you've heard it many times. But since we're all the same age, I don't need to beat around the bush. Let's go inside, and I'll tell you what I need your help with. But doesn't your company have a girl group project this year? Are you going to debut?"

Li Huanle's sincere tone made the two girls relax a bit, but they were still somewhat wary. When they heard about the debut project, their faces darkened.

"You're right, but we were both rejected!" Lee Jihyun replied politely, her voice tinged with melancholy.

"You're f***ing kidding me!!"

Li Huanle really wanted to shout this, but he held back. This was a great opportunity for collaboration, and it could also lay the foundation for future relationships. He didn't want to scare the two girls away.

But even so, he still found it hard to believe. Both of them were supposed to join T-ARA and debut, so how could they be rejected? Could it be that my way of asking was wrong?

"Rejected? No way, I think you both have great potential, how could you be rejected!" Li Huanle asked in surprise, finding it unscientific.

And Jeon Baeran suddenly poked her head out from behind Lee Jihyun, annoyed, "How do you know we have great potential, and why do you care about our rejection!"

"Hahaha~~ It's nothing, just a friend's concern. If you lose, you lose. But if you really were rejected, I can give you a chance. We can help each other, and maybe you'll get more attention from the company!" Li Huanle felt more confident and smiled enticingly.

Jeon Baeran and Lee Jihyun were stunned, looking at each other in shock, then at Jiang Minjing, as if asking, 'Minjing, is your Oppa normal?'

"Cough, cough, I'll go first. Oppa, please take good care of the guests. I'll go first, my Oppa is actually a good person!" Jiang Minjing, seeing the three slowly calm down, finally relaxed a bit. Thinking about her work, though she was very curious about what Oppa meant, she said goodbye to the three and left the house.

"Come on, why are you still standing there? Do you want to stand here and talk?" Li Huanle turned and walked a few steps, seeing the two future idols still standing there, and called out.

Lee Jihyun turned and asked softly, "Should we go over?"

Jeon Baeran had also calmed down a lot. Thinking that this person was Minjing's Oppa and Li Huanle had assured them he was a good person, she didn't think there would be any problem. Plus, thinking about the opportunity and mutual help he mentioned, she felt a bit curious and hopeful.

So Jeon Baeran bit her lip and said seriously, "Let's go, let's see what he needs our help with!"

Lee Jihyun nodded, sighing helplessly. Compared to Jeon Baeran, who had been a trainee for a longer time, she had been a trainee for a shorter period. But both of them were not young, and the failure of this selection had a significant impact on them.

Especially for Lee Jihyun, since Jeon Baeran had released a debut single last year, but... nothing happened after that.

And Lee Jihyun, who was famous for her face and had shot some magazine ads, had never truly debuted. The failure of this selection meant that she didn't know when she would have another chance.

The two followed Li Huanle into the house, feeling helpless, sad, and somewhat curious.

As for Li Huanle, he was very excited, his mind racing with thoughts on how to build a good relationship with the loli Baeran and the beautiful Jihyun. Although T-ARA's popularity in the future didn't reach the level of Girls' Generation, and there were many negative news stories, the situation was different now.

Li Huanle wasn't a time traveler, but the memory fragments of the otaku were like the wings of a butterfly. It all depended on how Li Huanle chose to use them.

Simply put, if Li Huanle chose to take away all the hit songs of the future groups... then their futures would be uncertain, whether they would debut successfully or fail would be up to fate.

Similarly, Li Huanle believed that if he really wanted to help someone, even without music production skills, he could push them to the top with the sheer number of works. Even if the success rate wasn't 100%, it had to be over 70%.

The three entered the room, and Li Huanle had the two girls sit on the sofa, then poured two drinks. He then ran to his room and brought out the sheet music for three songs.

"You can look at the sheet music for these three songs first, then we can discuss the mutual help!" Li Huanle sat on the left single sofa, threw the sheet music on the coffee table, but...

Li Huanle's gaze uncontrollably fell on Lee Jihyun's beautiful legs in black tights...
