Peninsula: I'm the Top Streamer

Chapter 497 Menacing
The next morning.

Somi slowly woke up from her sleep, immediately feeling extremely sore all over, as if her body was about to fall apart.

My throat is hoarse and sore, and I can't even speak. It's probably because I shouted or used too much last night.

I felt like my body was about to fall apart, and I couldn't muster any strength.

Sunlight streamed in through the window, adorning the clear blue sky with a few cotton-like white clouds, creating a scene as beautiful as an oil painting.

Somi propped herself up, her body aching and weak, causing her to wince and grimac. She groped for a glass of water on the bedside table and gulped it down.

His throat bobbed, and a trickle of water slid from his lips, splashing onto the sheets.

Last night left a deep impression on her, one she will never forget.

The scene from last night flashed through her mind. Somi swallowed hard, touched herself, and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

It felt like it was about to break.

Somi rested for a while, then got out of bed, stretched, scratched her hair, and looked at herself in the mirror.

I also saw handprints on the bathroom glass.

This was certainly part of what happened last night.

"It's really..."

Somi couldn't understand how Zhao Meiyan could satisfy Quan Xuanhe. She considered herself a very energetic person, but when facing Quan Xuanhe, she could only say that she was unable to cope.

He's not only handsome, but also incredibly capable...

It's really understandable that they played it fancy.

After a brief moment of reverie, the sound of running water came from the bathroom, and Somi began to wash up.

When she reappeared on set, she was once again a vibrant and beautiful mixed-race girl, radiating youthful energy and exuding a captivating charm with her hot and sexy figure.

"oppa!"

Somi stared at Kwon Heonhyuk as soon as he arrived. After he finished filming, she immediately came to greet him and produced a bottle of water from somewhere, thoughtfully opening it to his lips.

Kwon Hyun-hyuk smiled, casually took it, looked at Somi whose expression showed no abnormality, and casually asked, "Did you sleep well last night?"

"I felt like my body was falling apart when I woke up this morning."

Upon hearing this, Somi seized the opportunity to start acting cute, pouting to express her slight dissatisfaction. Then, glancing around at the others, she covered her mouth and whispered in his ear, "It's all oppa's fault for being so mean..."

Aren't you happy?

Somi's eyes darted around, and she savored the moment again.

Her unique way of enjoying herself also gave her a tremendous sense of stimulation.

"Happy, of course I'm happy, you're a wonderful girl."

Kwon Hyun-hyuk reached out and patted her shoulder, his smile so open that Somi couldn't help but feel confused.

"That oppa..."

But she didn't forget the important matter. Somi opened her mouth, her smile becoming even more charming, and she started to coax him, trying to get something in return.

"Don't worry, I know what you want to say. I am a very trustworthy person."

"Somi, sometimes you shouldn't be so rigid about these things in front of men. Not many men will like that, you know?"

Kwon Hyun-hyuk's smile remained unchanged, still bright and cheerful, but Somi inexplicably felt that he didn't feel much warmth.

It's not even as good as when she first met Quan Xuanhe.

"Go back now. One day here is precious enough. Wait until we get back to receive good news."

Kwon Hyun-hyuk gently patted her shoulder, his tone softening.

"It's most likely not Louis Vuitton; it's probably another brand, but it's still high-end luxury, so it's acceptable, right?"

Upon hearing this, Somi was overjoyed to see that he had finally softened his tone, and nodded repeatedly, her face beaming with a warm and lively smile.

"of course can!"

"I'll go back and wait for oppa's news."

If it weren't for the fact that there were other people around, Somi would have jumped on him and given him a big, passionate kiss.

Quan Xuanhe nodded slightly.

If it weren't all just rumors, Somi is genuinely busy with her comeback coming soon, and it was her own idea to come see Kwon Heon-hyuk despite the controversy, which can be considered a risk.

Under the bright sunshine, Somi, with her charming and alluring figure, left the film set with a graceful sway of her hips.

After she left, Quan Xuanhe thought for a moment, looked for his contacts, selected a phone number, and then made a call.

Judging from the English conversation, Kwon Heonhyuk had bypassed the Korean region and directly contacted a higher level.

Somi got what she wanted, and Chou Tzu-yu also officially got what Somi had dreamed of but ultimately failed to get.

The official announcement of Louis Vuitton's South Korean ambassador!

As the newly appointed ambassador for the Korean region, Chou Tzu-yu has been receiving continuous attention from fans both before and after the official announcement.

She appeared on the cover of Dazed magazine, wore Louis Vuitton clothes at the airport, and her official Twitter account featured photos of her wearing LV items. She was also acknowledged by LV's official social media accounts.

Now that the official announcement has finally been posted on the official website, everyone is overjoyed and spreading the news, celebrating Twice's first high-end luxury brand endorsement.

The group's number one high-end member, top popularity, TC Candler's 19 world's number one beauty, King's Choice, three-time world's number one beauty in 20, 23, and 24, Hanlin School Beauty, and K-pop's pure queen!

Tzuyu's popularity and fame are among the top in Twice, but the treatment she receives is not commensurate with her high popularity and fame. Now that she has suddenly received a high-end luxury endorsement, her fans feel as if they are poor people who have suddenly become rich, and they are overwhelmed with gratitude.

This is outrageous! Does this mean they're going to renew their contract with JYP Entertainment next year and have taken this bait?
Those in the industry who are more concerned about this know, to varying degrees, that Chou Tzu-yu's endorsement was actually pushed into the lap by someone else.

There is someone else, but who is this person?
Of course, it's Kwon Hyun-hyuk who has been through controversy but is still doing well and remains incredibly popular!
The explosive response from the brand to its first in-person appearance at Paris Fashion Week has already been tallied.

The sales of the same item surged by nearly 500%, and the search click-through rate increased exponentially. The number of personal views was among the highest of all the celebrities attending Paris Fashion Week.

Although it might seem like he's taking advantage of the situation, isn't this also a way for him to gain popularity?

Such a high return on investment led both brands to continue investing in him, increasing his compensation and the level of importance they placed on him.

In return, they naturally accelerated Chou Tzu-yu's progress, officially launching the campaign just days after Fashion Week ended, and releasing the pre-shot advertising campaign online and offline immediately.

This was quite rare in 2021, when high-end luxury goods had not yet become widespread, and it attracted a lot of attention in the fan community.

In the K-pop scene, especially recently, fans are actually very knowledgeable about their idols' activities, including their love lives.

When someone really wants to track another person, it's actually very difficult to defend against.

The biggest fans and the fan site administrators are also fans, but they are actually quite clear-headed and know the general intricacies of the situation.

They knew it was related to Kwon Heon-hyuk, but they all kept silent. Fans would tacitly keep such things a secret.

It is no coincidence.

Tzuyu's endorsement is progressing rapidly, and Sana Minatozaki's progress is not slow either.

She participated in Prada's New Year photoshoot and is planning to shoot her own magazine cover. Prada has also frequently acknowledged her involvement, and fans are now eagerly awaiting the official announcement of her endorsement.

However, their progress is not as fast as Chou Tzu-yu's. After all, Minatozaki Sana's collaboration only began a few months ago after Kwon Hyun-hyuk helped her make the connection, and the process was lengthy, with procedures and evaluation periods still not completed. But it's pretty much a done deal.

It's like a double blessing. The only high-end resources of the top girl group TWICE are all dependent on one man, and he's the same man with whom they had a previous dispute.

This indirectly encouraged JYPE to find someone in the market who could fill the gap in the high-end luxury market.

Their further success in their careers led both Chou Tzu-yu and Minatozaki Sana to have mixed feelings about Kwon Heon-hyuk.

Sana Minatozaki is aware of Kwon Seonhyuk's current predicament. She wants to help, but doesn't know how to handle this mess, which puts her in a difficult position.

In her view, the situation was actually quite precarious.

Chou Tzu-yu's actions have already alerted Cho Mi-yeon, but she herself is unaware of it.

Zhao Meiyan was extremely wary of her, not knowing when she might take action.

What will happen to the two of them because of a man?
She was a little afraid to think about it.

"Everyone, you will have a few days of vacation after returning to Korea. You can find the specific dates on the itinerary."

"Then we'll all set a fixed time, and if you need pick-up or drop-off, please contact us promptly."

The agent announced the upcoming vacation to everyone and, as usual, gave some instructions, glancing around to make sure no one missed any information.

"Is there anything else? If not, everyone can go home and enjoy your vacation."

The agent concluded by announcing this.

"Nothing."

“Get off work and get off work!”

Anyone want to have dinner together?

The crowd below chattered amongst themselves, glancing left and right, completely ignoring the manager.

The agent looked around, saw that no one was paying attention to him, shook his head, and then left without saying anything more.

What are your plans for your vacation?

Sana Minatozaki deliberately moved closer to Tzuyu, asking him with a bright smile and sparkling eyes.

Upon hearing this, Chou Tzu-yu smiled broadly, shifting her gaze from the lively Lim Na-yeon to Minatozaki Sana.

"I?"

Chou Tzu-yu blinked and continued with a smile, "I've made plans with someone to go to Jeju Island."

Jeju Island?

Sana Minatozaki was startled, and a series of stories instantly came to mind.

Jeju Island…

Kwon Heon-hyuk is in Jeju Island, and she's going to Jeju Island again after her vacation.

Is it really just a trip to Jeju Island?
Instead of going to Jeju Island to see Kwon Hyun-hyuk?
A sense of doubt immediately arose in Sana Minatozaki's heart.

Her mind started racing. She had to help Quan Xuanhe, or at least Zhao Meiyan, to dispel the uncertainties that might arise in the coming days.

No, we need to take action.

Can I come along?

She hadn't made any plans for the holiday. If she guessed wrong, so be it. Going to Jeju Island would be a great option.

Eh?
Chou Tzu-yu was stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting Minatozaki Sana to join in so suddenly. She was obviously caught off guard and hesitated for a second.

"This...this..."

"Can't you?"

Sana Minatozaki stared at her with her big, bright eyes.

She's using her cuteness to seduce him.

"Ask the unnie who went with me. If she's willing, then we can go to Jeju Island together."

"It would be more fun with more people!"

Chou Tzu-yu waved her hand, then a smile returned to her face, a smile that seemed to offer some reassurance.

"That's great! Ziyu, you should ask around. You must let me join."

Sana Minatosaki acted cute towards her, hugged her, and started asking for kisses.

Chou Tzu-yu's smile seemed a bit strained at this moment, so she leaned back and turned her head to one side.

Sana Minatozaki giggled, her eyes brimming with laughter.

...

As Zhao Meiyan finished filming, she thought about her phone call with Quan Xuanhe last night, and a strange melancholy settled in her heart.

We really need to meet; it's unacceptable if we don't.

In matters of the heart, she was more attentive. With her woman's intuition, she could sense that Kwon Hyun-hyuk was distracted and that his mind was clearly not on her.

Is that right? That's completely wrong.

This is practically a sign of an impending breakup!
She clearly saw evidence of Kwon Heon-hyuk's suspected infidelity, but why did the situation get even worse afterward?

No, I have to go see him!
After thinking about it, Zhao Meiyan immediately wanted to do it. Compared to a hasty person, she was actually quite clumsy.

She looked at the filming schedule, found a blank space, and then went to ask the director for leave.

"Director, I'm really sorry, but I need to ask for a day off."

Zhao Meiyan immediately went to find Kim Sang-seop, sounding very embarrassed.

"Ask for leave? The time is actually a bit tight..."

Kim Sang-seop's tone was not very clear, and it seemed that it wouldn't be easy for him to take leave.

In desperation, Zhao Meiyan immediately brought up Quan Xuanhe, saying, "I'll go see Xuanhe; I need to talk to him about something..."

Upon hearing this, Kim Sang-seop suddenly understood, his brows relaxed, and a kind smile appeared on his face. "It's alright, then go ahead, just come back in time."

Zhao Meiyan's smile faded only after she could no longer see Kim Sang-seop. She breathed a sigh of relief, but a new thought surfaced in her mind, leaving her feeling resentful.

It turns out we still need Kwon Hyun-hyuk.

Feeling a little down, Zhao Meiyan took a deep breath and tried to cheer herself up.

To avoid becoming hesitant, she immediately opened her phone and booked a flight, preparing to fly to Jeju Island to find Kwon Heon-hyuk as soon as possible.

Having taken a temporary leave, Zhao Meiyan quietly left the film crew alone, heading straight to the airport and embarking on her journey to Jeju Island.

Meanwhile, Tzuyu and Sana Minatozaki, fully prepared, are about to board a flight to Jeju Island.
