Peninsula Landlord

Chapter 541: Confession to Crystal
early morning.

Huang Xu, who had just woken up, looked at the message on his phone with a confused look on his face.

"What? What does Xika mean? What do you mean by I want to compensate you and thank you?"

"During this period of time, I shouldn't owe her any favors, right?"

He scratched his head and thought for a long time, but still couldn't figure out why Jessica Jung sent him this message.

Especially since it was sent at three or four o'clock in the morning.

This time period is also very suspicious.

Could it be that she helped me with something when I didn't know?

And what losses did she incur while helping?
Is that why you are asking me for compensation and to thank you?

After thinking for a long time, Huang Xu finally thought of this only possibility.

No matter how much he thought about it, Huang Xu just replied her with a question mark and put the matter aside.

If she really helped me in some way, then I'm not a stingy person.

But the prerequisite is that you have to let yourself know what the matter is.

Putting down his phone, Huang Xu simply washed up and knocked on Cui Zhenli's door next door.

There are not many flights to the place they are going this time. If they miss the morning flight, they will have to wait until the next one in the afternoon. It is better not to miss it if possible.

"dong dong dong~~"

"Truth, are you up yet?"

"Oppa~~"

Before Huang Xu's voice fell, Cui Zhenli had already opened the door and appeared in front of Huang Xu.

Looking at Huang Xu at the door, she gave him a sweet smile.

"Oppa, good morning~~"

"Good morning, did you sleep well last night?"

Seeing Choi Jin-ri's infectious smile early in the morning, Huang Xu's already good mood became even brighter.

Seeing the smile on Huang Xu's face and his happy mood, the smile on Cui Zhenli's face became even brighter.

But her smile didn't last long before she heard Huang Xu's caring words.

"Zhen Li, is your leg okay now?"

"."

Although this was Huang Xu's concern, Choi Jin-ri's face, which was filled with a bright smile, froze there.

Yes, on the surface, this was indeed Huang Xu's concern for her, and she should feel happy.

But when she saw the smile that could not be concealed in Huang Xu's eyes, Cui Zhenli instantly recalled the scene of last night.

At that time, he looked at me with such eyes.

Thinking of this, Choi Jin-ri's smile turned into shyness, and her cheeks became slightly hot.

He quickly lowered his head to avoid Huang Xu's sight, then replied in a low voice.

"Thank you, Oppa. I'm fine now."

"It's okay."

"Come on, let's go downstairs to eat."

Seeing Choi Jin-ri's shy look, Huang Xu did not continue teasing her. He directly pulled Choi Jin-ri, who was lowering her head, towards the restaurant downstairs.

After a simple breakfast, the two packed their luggage, checked out and headed for the airport.

. . . . . . .

It’s almost noon in Seoul.

Jessica Jung, who couldn't sleep until the early hours of last night and then slept till now, couldn't help but swear when she saw Huang Xu's reply on her phone.

"Ah Yixi, Huang Xu, this bastard, is still pretending to be stupid."

"You really don't take me seriously~!"

She didn't believe that Huang Xu was completely unaware of the fact that she was being used by Sunny and Kim Taeyeon.

Now she already knows that she is being used, but Huang Xu is still playing dumb and fooling her like a fool.

How could Jessica Jung, who prides herself on being extremely smart, accept this?
Jessica Jung became more and more angry the more she thought about it. She didn't care what time it was and that Huang Xu was not available to answer the phone, so she called him directly.

She wanted to scold Huang Xu and vent her anger.

However, she called several times in a row but the call was not connected.

It either prompts that the phone is out of service area or that the other party’s phone is turned off.

This result made Jessica Jung, who was already full of resentment, explode.

"Ashi, you bastard, you..."

"Xiba."

"."

"Onie, you."

Following Jessica Jung's verbal abuse and outburst, Krystal Jung, who had woken up early and was playing with her phone on the sofa in the living room, ran straight to her sister's room.

I opened the door and was about to say a few words of concern, but when I saw the condition in the room, I was dumbfounded.

I saw that my sister, who was usually quite reliable, was now uttering a series of insults into her mobile phone.

She didn't even notice that I came in.

"what?"

"Who made Ernie so angry?"

Seeing her sister's condition, although Krystal Jung didn't know what exactly happened, she quickly came to her sister, took her hand and asked.

"Unnie, what's wrong with you?"

"Why are you so angry all of a sudden?"

"Did anyone offend you?"

"Who else could it be except that bastard Huang Xu?"

The appearance of Krystal Jung allowed Jessica Jung, who was already full of resentment, to find someone to talk to, so she vented all her resentment towards Huang Xu.

"You don't know how outrageous he is. He actually..."

"."

Following Jessica Jung's accusations, Krystal Jung gradually understood what had happened.

To put it bluntly, after the chat yesterday, my sister still felt that she was at a disadvantage, so she sent a message to Huang Xu, asking for compensation and expressing gratitude.

As a result, Huang Xu was still pretending to be stupid and just replied her with a question mark.

And just now, Ouni called him, but he didn't answer.

After understanding what happened, Krystal was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

She didn't expect that her sister would get so angry over such a small matter.

At the same time, she also felt a little strange.

According to her understanding of her own sister, even if she felt unhappy, she should go to Sunny or Kim Taeyeon, the two parties involved. Why would she go to Huang Xu, an "outsider" with whom she was not very familiar?

Isn't this a bit unreasonable?
It doesn't quite fit Jessica Jung's personality.

Jessica Jung, who was complaining to her sister incessantly, did not notice the change in Krystal Jung's eyes. After finishing talking about this incident, she began to accuse Huang Xu of his dark history.

For example, a few months ago, when she noticed that something was wrong with Kim Taeyeon and wanted to find Huang Xu to confirm it, he locked her out.

For example, just after the Chinese New Year, when I wanted to find a way out, I was scolded.

I was also fooled by someone who said he could help me realize my dream of becoming a designer. But a few months later, the summer in Korea was about to end, but there was still no sign of what he promised.

Just as Jessica Jung was getting more and more excited and involved in the conversation, Krystal Jung showed a surprised expression on her face.

She could never have imagined that without her knowing, her sister had so many interactions with Huang Xu.

And it seems that their relationship is pretty good.

Although Jessica Jung has been talking about how excessive Huang Xu is and what a bastard he is.

It seemed as if the relationship between the two of them was incompatible, or even that they were enemies.

But in Krystal Jung's opinion, she and Huang Xu actually have a good relationship, otherwise, with her temper, they would not have so many stories.

This was a little hard for Krystal to accept.

In her original impression, Huang Xu was just a lucky guy who somehow managed to get Goo Hara and Sunny to become their boyfriends.

Then there is an oppa who is a good cook and often sends them delicious food.

Finally, there is the secret crush of his teammate Choi Jin-ri.

Oh, and he also owns a fairly large chain company, so he can be considered a successful businessman.

But all these added up, to Krystal, he was just a "stranger" who was slightly better than an acquaintance, so she didn't care too much about it.

But now it seems that the situation is very different from what she thought.

He actually managed to get Kim Taeyeon and Choi Jinri again after already having Sunny and Goo Hara, which made her very curious.

What is the charm of Huang Xu that makes these goddesses admired by outsiders willing to pay for him?

What's more, her own sister actually has a pretty good relationship with him, which makes Krystal Jung even more curious about who Huang Xu is.

So I waited until Jessica Jung had vented her anger and was taking a break, then I followed what she said.

"Ouni, since he is so hateful, when he comes back, we will go and settle the score with him and give him a good scolding to vent our anger."

"Then we will break up with him and never meet again."

"Who is he? How dare he treat me like this~!"

"Well, let's go and settle accounts with him and scold him."

"We can break up, this"

Naturally, Jessica Jung would not object to being able to scold Huang Xu and vent her anger.

However, Jessica Jung was somewhat opposed to her sister's later statement that she wanted to break up with Huang Xu and not meet him anymore.

It’s not that she likes Huang Xu or anything, but many of her future plans require Huang Xu’s support.

Whether it is her dream as a designer or the ambition of her studio, it is inseparable from Huang Xu.

But seeing her sister's empathetic anger, she felt a little embarrassed.

You can't be scolding Huang Xu just a second ago and then defending him now.

Just when she was hesitating about how to explain to her sister, Krystal Jung's heart sank when she saw her hesitation.

"As expected, there is something unusual about the relationship between Ouni and Huang Xu."

She said that just now in order to test her sister and see what the relationship between her and Huang Xu was.

But after actually seeing it, she felt a little depressed and at a loss.

Although after what happened last night and now, Huang Xu's image in her mind has changed drastically.

But the image of her as a playboy and a scumbag was also deeply imprinted in her mind.

Now seeing her sister like this, she is a little scared. Will her sister also be bewitched by Huang Xu like Kim Taeyeon and the others?

Thinking of this possibility, she did not hesitate and directly persuaded her sister.

"Unnie, what are you hesitating about?"

"He has already treated you like this and made you so angry, why do you still want to go to him?"

"It's better to just scold him and cut off contact completely."

"This way you don't have to worry about him playing tricks on you or bullying you anymore."

"Crystal, it's not as simple as you think."

Seeing her sister's angry look, Jessica Jung felt both relieved and headache.

She felt relieved because her sister cared about her so much and shared the same hatred with her, which made her feel warm inside.

The headache is that I don’t know how to explain it to my sister.

Jessica Jung hesitated for a moment, and looking at her increasingly anxious sister, she finally decided to confess.

She didn't want Zheng Xiujing to misunderstand Huang Xu and feel dissatisfied with Huang Xu because of her own affairs.

According to Huang Xu's current plan, his status in the Korean entertainment industry will become higher and higher and more important.

If her sister had a misunderstanding because of her, which affected her relationship with Huang Xu and further affected her development, this was something Jessica Jung did not want to see.

So after she comforted her anxious sister, she began to tell the story.

"Crystal, don't worry. The situation between Huang Xu and I is quite complicated. It's not as simple as you think."

"And his identity is not as simple as you think."

Then, Jessica Jung briefly told her sister about Huang Xu's identity as the boss of his agency and his cooperation plan with Lee Soo Man.

After hearing this, Krystal was dumbfounded again. She looked at Jessica Jung in confusion, with disbelief in her eyes.

Obviously, the image of Huang Xu in her mind has changed again.

He didn't expect that Huang Xu's identity would be so complicated. He was actually the new boss of his good friend Tara and the mysterious person who acquired Kim Kwang-soo's CCM.

At the same time, he also has extraordinary connections in China.

Earlier, they went to China to record a variety show with Girls' Generation and others, which was made possible by his help.

Also, he is currently cooperating with a large video website in China, hoping to promote Tara and others in China.

He even has in-depth cooperation with his and his sister's agency, SM.

Later, they can rely on Huang Xu's company to expand the market in China.

And most importantly, my sister's dream of becoming a designer and her ambition to open her own studio both require Huang Xu's help.

This series of information overloaded Zheng Xiujing's brain. She was stunned for several minutes before she sorted out her thoughts.

At this point, she also understood why he treated Jessica Jung that way, and why Jessica Jung still just cursed him behind his back.

At the same time, her impression of Huang Xu changed drastically again.

This change in image in a short period of time also made her very curious about Huang Xu.

"What kind of person are you?"

However, although she was curious, the first thing she looked at after she woke up was her sister.

"Unnie, what are you going to do now?"

"Should I continue to be bullied by him and help them hide their identities?"

"still."

"What else can we do? We can only continue to cover for them~!"

"Even if Huang Xu doesn't have those identities, I can't just stand by and watch Sunny and Taeyeon."

Facing Krystal Jung's question, Jessica Jung helplessly revealed a bitter smile.

But after she finished speaking, she couldn't help but add one more sentence.

"Helping is helping, but I definitely want compensation and thanks."

"Otherwise I will definitely not let him go."
