Peninsula: After Bai Yueguang left, I went crazy killing people!

Chapter 956 Preliminary Trials
"Isn't this our mentor? Your presence is truly an honor!" Lee Sung-soo said with a smile as soon as he saw Lee Yang.

It's clear that SM's new representative is in a great mood, radiating confidence and high spirits.

"It's still a bit short of representing nim."

Li Yang responded with a smile. He hadn't expected to run into Lee Sung-soo in the elevator. He had only planned to pick up Bae Joo-hyun for the live broadcast.

"I can't stand being praised by a male mentor."

Lee Sung-soo shook his head with a smile and said, "You have no idea, you have a group of very crazy fans online now. Anyone who says a bad word about you will be attacked severely."

"Others may not know, but can't you see? They're just using my name to vent their frustrations," Li Yang explained, both amused and exasperated.

"I think you're just being too modest."

Lee Sung-soo, however, looked at him with an air of "Don't try to fool me," and said, "It's all about the traffic boom. Once it takes hold, no matter what kind of traffic you have, it will all elevate you to god-like status."

He wasn't just making things up.

Once a trend takes hold, a massive wave of online influence will surge forth, especially when someone becomes a viral sensation online, generating an overwhelming amount of traffic.

"Are you interested in collaborating?"

Lee Sung-soo said with a smile, "Stop with your capital operations. First, this path is too difficult, the monetization time is very long, and the future is still unknown. It's better to come back and cooperate with SM, use your popularity to break down information barriers, and join hands to create a global entertainment company in Asia."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yang's eyes flickered, and he seemed to understand something. He then smiled and said, "Representative, it seems this wasn't a coincidence?"

"I've actually been waiting for you all morning."

Lee Sung-soo didn't hide anything and said frankly, "I was just thinking that if I couldn't wait for you this morning, I would come to your door in person this afternoon."

As he spoke, his tone gradually became somewhat fervent, and he said, "So, how about it, want to give it a try?"

"this one"

Li Yang hesitated slightly, then quickly shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I may not be able to give you an answer right away."

"That's normal, after all, we still need to weigh the pros and cons."

Lee Sung-soo expressed his understanding, but then sighed, "Those old guys' thinking is all stuck in the past. I thought you were the only one in this company who understood my ideas, but reality is holding us back. Sigh."

He seemed to have something on his mind.

Li Yang glanced at him, knowing he was waiting for him to ask a question, but deliberately didn't respond.

I can't answer.
The more you say, the more mistakes you make; sometimes it's better for everyone to know less.

Especially since I've already gotten what I wanted, there's even less reason for me to get involved in SM's affairs.

"It's difficult. Human nature is unpredictable, and managing such a large company is even more challenging."

Lee Sung-soo sighed, "You have no idea how difficult it is for me to make a decision right now, especially for Kim Young-min."

At this point, he seemed to realize the problem and immediately stopped talking.

He looked at Li Yang, only to find Li Yang standing calmly in the corner, as if he hadn't heard anything.

Lee Sung-soo couldn't help but smile. "No wonder you've gotten this far. Your ability to know when to advance and when to retreat already puts you ahead of many others."

Just then, the elevator doors opened with a ding, and Lee Sung-soo stepped out. However, before leaving, he paused, uttered a few words, and then continued on his way.

"Alright, let me give you a piece of advice: Lee Soo-man has always been vengeful. Don't be fooled by your current success; you must be careful of that old viper." "Yes, sir!"

Li Yang thanked him as he walked away. Of course, he wasn't concerned about whether Li Xiuman would set him up. After all, if the old man didn't intend to take revenge on him, then the trap would have been dug for nothing.

He was thinking that since he hadn't been to SM for many days, it seemed that Kim Young-min had caused this new representative a lot of trouble, just like he had done with Lee Soo-man.

so.
What role has Kim Young-min been playing all along?
Li Yang felt as if he had forgotten something, but he couldn't quite remember it.
Soon, he arrived at Bae Joo-hyun's dressing room.

The door to the lounge was ajar. As soon as Li Yang walked in, he was spotted by Son Seungwan, who was facing the door. He quickly made a shushing gesture and then gestured for others to be quiet before slowly approaching Bae Joo-hyun from behind.

When they first discovered it, Son Seung-wan and Park Soo-young exchanged a glance, seemingly guessing what Li Yang was going to do, and then smiled at each other.

In their minds, even if Unnie had some feelings for Li Yang, she wouldn't accept overly intimate physical contact, so it was as if they had already guessed Li Yang's fate.

结果
What happened next was utterly unexpected.

Bae Joo-hyun, who was combing her hair, felt someone touch her hair and frowned, looking up as if she was a little uncomfortable.

then
She saw someone's reflection in the makeup mirror, and her clear eyes suddenly lit up, her lips unconsciously curving upwards slightly.

"You came?"

Before Li Yang could even speak, Son Seung-wan and Park Soo-young were so shocked that their mouths almost dropped to the ground.

They swore they had never heard Unnie speak with such a gentle voice before.

"My makeup skills are also very good."

Li Yang took the comb from Bae Joo-hyun's hand and combed her hair, asking, "How are you? Busy today?"

"not busy."

Bae Joo-hyun's voice sounded the same as always, but it was noticeably more intoxicatingly gentle.

She seemed uncomfortable being touched and instinctively tried to shrink away, but she managed to hold back. Only the two people involved could notice the slight movement.

"How about you do me a favor and accompany me on a live stream?" Li Yang said with a smile. He quickly combed Bae Joo-hyun's hair, clipped it with a shark clip, and then held Bae Joo-hyun's head in his hands to examine her in the makeup mirror. After a moment, he showed a satisfied expression, "As expected of a goddess, even my terrible hair-combing skills can produce such a beautiful effect."

"Actually, it's still pretty good."

Bae Joo-hyun said it subconsciously.

Actually, Li Yang's technique wasn't very good. At this moment, her hair was loosely tied up, with messy strands, but compared to her usual refined and aloof demeanor, she looked more languid, like a friendly young woman next door, with a kind of charming allure as if she had been bathed in happiness.

"Yes, sure!"

Bae Joo-hyun nodded, picked up her lipstick, and said, "Let me touch up my makeup."

Before he could finish speaking, the lipstick in his hand was gone, and the chair had been turned around.

Bae Joo-hyun looked at Li Yang, who was already squatting in front of her, with some surprise.

"That's not how you apply lipstick."

Li Yang smiled gently, and soon, he applied lipstick to his thumb. Then, under the stunned gazes of the two people beside him, he pressed his thumb against Bae Joo-hyun's red lips and slowly wiped them clean.
