"You could at least pretend that you're listening to me." I looked up from my phone when Dayeon spoke.

I smiled apologetically and sent a quick reply to Xiaoting, stating that I need to focus on the meeting.

"I'm sorry, where were we?" I asked.

Today I'm in a meeting with Chaehyun who's since she's my manager, along with Dayeon because she will make the theme song for the show and because she didn't have anything else to do. The company is planning to produce a variety show and asked me if I could participate in it to attract attention. I didn't really mind, especially now that I'm planning to have a comeback shortly after my collaboration with Bing. However, the thing about this show is that it's being dubbed as a 'dating show' by the publicity department.

It's called "We're The Real Couple" and it's basically all about fan service. The show already released a voting poll for fans to vote for their favorite ships. Last time I checked, Bing and I were among the top five. If she accepted going on the show, I didn't really mind it.

But I have to tell my suitor about this so that she won't have to worry.

Heh. Ting. My suitor.

I smiled unconsciously as I felt giddy at the thought.

"Weirdo. Don't smile at me like that. Anyway, I was telling you that when we trended because of that dinner we had about two weeks ago, the shipping polls changed."

"Oh, I see. Did Bing and I drop? I won't participate in the show anymore?" I asked.

Dayeon looked at Chaehyun, both of them laughing.

"Yes and no. Yes, you and Cai Bing dropped from the top. No, you will still participate in the show."

I frowned. "Are you going to rig the rankings? We're having a poll for a reason, you know."

Chaehyun rolled her eyes. "I know. It's just that your partner changed."

I motioned for her to keep going as Dayeon snorted 'cause I didn't know where this was going. "You should really check the Blue Bird from time to time to keep yourself updated."

I rolled my eyes at what she said. "That one time I panicked when my phone was flooding with notifications because I happened to trend for the simple fact that I ate a seasoned chicken feet at a restaurant, made me uninstall that app in the first place. Besides, comments there are a mix of admiration and unwarranted hate. As much as possible, I'd like to avoid the last part. Also, I have you guys to update me with everything." I grinned cheekily at them.

"... You have a point. But you have to admit, that chicken feet was the best."

"Of course. That's why my reaction was like that. Who would have thought that I would suddenly be the reason for chicken feet to be scarce for solding out that fast." I laughed, remembering the hashtag 'Yujin_took_all_the_chicken'.

"Anyway, who's my new partner?" I honestly couldn't think of anyone since I haven't been that active yet for the past week.

"Ting eonnie~"

To say that I was shocked was an understatement. I couldn't speak for a few seconds while the two of them laughed at my expression.

"W-what!? How is that even possible? Yah, did any one of you disclose to the public about my little crush on her!?" I squinted my eyes at them.

"A little crush, she says." Dayeon teased.

"Kim Dayeon, I swear- You know what, I don't care. Ting doesn't like being in the eyes of the public, that's why we hang out in closed areas or in disguise. How did us being voted in the poll happen?"
