Peninsula: I'm the Top Streamer

Chapter 553 Leisurely Days (Snow)

When Sana Minatozaki woke up again, she felt an even colder airflow around her than the day before, and she curled up even more, burying herself completely in the blankets.

Why is it so cold?

This was the only thought that was vaguely in Sana Minatozaki's mind.

She buried her face deeper into the folds of the down pillow, but faintly heard a tiny sound of ice crystals colliding through the glass, causing her fingers, curled up in the blanket, to unconsciously clench the corner of the blanket.

Her curled toes suddenly touched the coolness seeping in through the gaps in the blankets, and she finally struggled to peek out from under the covers and opened her eyes with difficulty.

The cold air condensing on the glass turned into tiny water droplets, blurring the view and covering the entire window with frost.

Sana Minato rubbed her eyes, looked at the snowflakes clinging to the window, slowly opened her eyes wide, and her expression suddenly turned to surprise.

Snowing!
She jumped out of bed and crawled to the edge, peering out the window, hoping to see the first snowfall.

It looks just like a curious little dog.

But the sudden coolness that rushed into the blankets as she moved made her curl up again.

"Cold, cold, cold."

The first snowfall was quite exciting, and Sana Minatozaki was no longer sleepy. She woke up earlier than her alarm clock had been set, and the alarm didn't go off until half an hour later.

She couldn't sleep anymore. She immediately climbed to the head of the bed, grabbed her phone, stepped barefoot onto the floor, and started taking pictures of the snowy scenery outside the window.

so good.

The first snow of the year—what a meaningful moment! Sana Minatozaki looked at the photos on her phone and immediately wanted to share them with someone.

First, her sisters appeared in her mind, and then Kwon Hyun-hyuk's face appeared in her mind.

Today happens to be the day we agreed to go skiing together.

Sana Minatosaki woke up early, and the excitement of seeing the first snow immediately dispelled all her sleepiness, prompting her to get up and wash.

As she pushed open the door in a good mood, she happened to see Chou Tzu-yu, who was about to knock on her door.

"Unnie, wake up."

"Okay, I'll get ready to wash up, and then we'll set off!"

When Sana Minato saw Tzuyu standing at the door looking at her curiously, she gave her a bright, sunny smile.

"it is good."

Chou Tzu-yu gave a slight smile as she watched her walk into the bathroom.

Hearing this, a question seems to arise: what about Chou Tzu-yu?

We need to go back to yesterday.

In fact, when Sana Minatozaki was thinking about who to go out with, she suddenly realized that if she went out with Kwon Heonhyuk, how could she keep it a secret from Tzuyu?

It seems.
It's unlikely, and keeping it a secret seems like it could easily lead to trouble, right?

But if you were to actually call Zhou Ziyu, this...
Sana Minatosaki felt a mix of emotions and conflict, and then let out a soft sigh.

She now truly realized how difficult her situation was and how little room she had to maneuver.

Forget it.

After a brief struggle, Sana Minatozaki's team spirit ultimately prevailed, and she immediately went to call Tzuyu.

"ski?"

Chou Tzu-yu was a little confused, but Minatozaki Sana suddenly grabbed her hand.

"Tzuyu, let's go skiing together tomorrow!"

"Ernie?"

"Actually, it's not just me, it's Xuanhe too."

Sana Minatosaki suddenly felt a little embarrassed to say Kwon Hyun-hyuk's name, but she said it anyway.

"what?"

Chou Tzu-yu was extremely surprised. Her almond-shaped eyes widened as she stared at her in astonishment, forgetting to even make an expression. She just stared at her blankly.

Seeing this, Sana Minato sighed inwardly, but her face remained expressionless; instead, she smiled and said, "That's right."

"Actually, as you know, Xuanhe felt the situation was awkward, so he didn't think of calling you."

When she said those words, Sana Minatozaki seemed to realize for a moment that she hadn't considered whether Kwon Heonhyuk would be willing to come out with Tzuyu.

A sudden wave of regret washed over her, and Sana Minatosaki felt a burning sensation that was both irritating and unsettling. But the words had already been spoken, and there was no turning back.

"Oh, I see."

Chou Tzu-yu seemed to realize something, and then, not knowing what to say, she stared at her in silence for a while.

"Want to go? Let's go together?"

Sana Minatosaki felt a little awkward under her silent gaze, but forced a smile and invited her again.

"No need, you guys go ahead, I have plans, I can't go tomorrow."

Great.

Sana Minatozaki felt a huge weight lifted from her shoulders and let out a sigh of relief, but her face was full of regret. "Ah..."

"It would be great if you were with us."

I never imagined she would become one of those two-faced people, saying one thing and meaning another.

A sudden feeling of shame made Sana Minatozaki feel ashamed, but she quickly recovered.

Since Chou Tzu-yu isn't going, there's nothing we can do.

Sana Minatozaki exchanged a few more words with Tzuyu Chou before trying to slip away.

"Did Hyunhyuk oppa invite you, unnie?"

"Uh, I guess so?"

Of course, it was Kwon Heonhyuk who took the initiative to contact her, but she felt she couldn't just give a straightforward answer. It was obvious that Zhou Ziyu hadn't asked that question casually.

"Ok."

She looked at Chou Tzu-yu, wondering what she was feeling.

But she didn't want to talk about anything more at this point, because Sana Minatozaki could already sense the awkward atmosphere.

"Then go have fun, unnie."

Chou Tzu-yu concluded with these words.

The timeline returns to the present.

Sana Minatozaki was brushing her teeth while scrolling through her phone. She sent photos of the snow to the members, then looked at the chat box, hesitated for a moment, and then sent photos of the snow outside the window to Kwon Hyunhyuk.

Looks like today is a great day for skiing!

"It's snowing, the snowflakes are so pretty!"

"It's really good."

Quan Xuanhe had just struggled out of a group of beauties.

After getting up early to say goodbye to the two who were still fast asleep in bed, Quan Xuanhe returned to his home and hurriedly began packing, preparing to leave.

He saw snow falling outside as soon as he left Han Hyo-joo's house. Feeling the snowflakes falling softly, he found it quite novel and gained a clearer understanding of the arrival of winter.

"The first snow should be heard."

Quan Xuanhe replied.

He hurried home, took out a small suitcase, and stuffed his things inside. He didn't have much to prepare.

He hadn't driven either of his cars for who knows how long; they were practically covered in dust. Kwon Hyun-hyuk drove his Cayenne out, stopped for gas on the way, and then drove to pick up Minato Saka.

On the other side, Han Hyo-joo and Han Ji-min slowly woke up. The first thing they saw when they opened their eyes was each other, not Kwon Heon-hyuk.

"When did it run away?"

Han Ji-min felt listless, his whole body feeling dull and unmotivated, his mind still replaying the afterglow of last night.

"I don't know, who cares?"

Han Hyo-joo yawned, then pulled the blanket over herself, turned over, closed her eyes, and continued sleeping. Snowflakes were falling heavily, and cars on the road were moving slowly through the snow.

Quan Xuanhe reached out and touched the air vent, slightly increasing the temperature. The windshield wipers rhythmically swept across the windshield, and a layer of fog appeared faintly inside the car.

He was just about to turn on some music when a message popped up on his phone and caught his attention again.

"Today is the first snowfall, oppa, did you see it?"

Liu Zhimin excitedly shared with him the arrival of the first snow and savored this wonderful moment.

Kwon Hyun-hyuk was driving when he replied to Yoo Ji-min's message while the light was red.

"I saw it."

Kwon Hyun-hyuk then took a picture out the car window with his phone and sent it to Yoo Jimin, along with a message.

"The first snowfall felt quite heavy."

"The bigger the fall, the better!"

Liu Zhimin was very excited. She looked out the car window with joy in her eyes, as if she was very happy to see this scene. She was busy sharing this moment with Quan Xuanhe.

"Is oppa driving?"

Liu Zhimin noticed it was a car window and asked him a question out of curiosity.

"Correct."

"What are you going to do there by car?"

She asked again.

"Go out and play."

Kwon Hyun-hyuk gave a simple answer.

Liu Zhimin felt like her forehead veins were about to burst. She was a little speechless at Quan Xuanhe's passive attitude of only saying one sentence at a time and not speaking unless she asked.

"Oppa, please say more."

"Driving out to ski, what a relaxing and enjoyable day! (Hehe)"

"Skiing? I really want to go too (crying) (poor thing)"

Liu Zhimin watched him go skiing on the day of the first snowfall and naturally felt envious. Of course, the happiest time is to be with the person you like during such a meaningful moment.

"It's okay, we'll go skiing whenever you're free!"

"Okay~ (smiling face) (V-sign)"

Liu Zhimin was overjoyed to see that Quan Xuanhe was willing to coax her like this, but a question immediately arose in her mind.

"Did oppa go with his friends?"

"Ah."

"Male or female?"

"female."

"...A woman."

Liu Zhimin frowned slightly, "Why is it a woman..."

"Oppa, please don't betray me, okay?"

She wasn't particularly bothered or angry, but she still expressed her emotions through dry humor.

Playing with abstract concepts, huh?

"What are you talking about!"

"Do not disturb while driving."

Before Liu Zhimin could say anything more, Quan Xuanhe said a sentence and then stopped talking, focusing on driving to pick up Minatozaki Sana.

Before long, Quan Xuanhe drove slowly to the building where he was going.

There was already snow on the roadside, and a layer of snow on the railings next to the steps. The branches of the trees were bent over. Seoul under the snow had a unique atmosphere.

Sana Minatozaki has arrived!

She has short, brown hair that looks neat and stylish. She wears a light gray, plush-textured top, simple and comfortable yet fashionable, with a half-zip design adding a touch of casualness. She completes the look with a delicate necklace.

Even though it's winter, people pay more attention to their outfits and styling.

With a fresh and lively appearance and bright, expressive eyes that exude gentleness and playfulness, even though she is wearing a mask, her sparkling eyes are still visible.

Sana Minatozaki walked briskly towards them, pulling a suitcase in her hand. Seeing her walking towards him step by step, Kwon Hyun-hyuk got out of the car to greet her.

The snow crunched underfoot, and the cold air instantly filled my nostrils, invigorating me.

The heavy snow was still falling, and as far as the eye could see, snowflakes were dancing in the air.

Kwon Hyun-hyuk took the suitcase from Minatozaki Sana, put it in the trunk, and then got back into the car.

The snow was falling heavily, and there were scattered snowflakes on Sana Minato's head and shoulders. When she reached out to brush them off, the snowflakes didn't fall but melted away in an instant.

"The snow is falling so heavily!"

The first thing Sana Minato said after getting on the bus was to praise the weather.

"Why aren't you wearing warmer clothes? It's so cold outside."

Quan Xuanhe looked at her and saw that she was only wearing a fluffy top. Her outfit was quite exquisite, but she was putting style before warmth.

"It's in my suitcase. It snowed for the first time today, and I'll take pictures then. I'll put on my warm clothes after the pictures are taken."

"A look that absolutely needs to be photogenic."

Sana Minatozaki turned her head to look at the heavy snow outside the car window, her eyes brimming with joy.

Although it snowed while I was in Hokkaido, it was still a completely different place, so it was still very novel.

"Let's talk about it when we get there."

Seeing her cheerful expression, Quan Xuanhe smiled and said something, then without saying anything more, he slowly stepped on the gas.

The car slowly drove forward, leaving two black tracks on the ground as it gradually disappeared into the distance.

Their destination this time was the Gonjiam Resort Ski Resort.

Located in Gwangju, Gyeonggi Province, it is the largest ski resort near Seoul.

The resort boasts a total of 11 ski runs, with over 70% designed for beginner and intermediate skiers. The runs are wide and operate on a visitor limit of 7000 people per day, allowing guests to enjoy skiing freely. The resort also features recreational facilities such as forests, an ecological river, and hot springs.

Firstly, it's large, and secondly, it restricts tourists, thus offering relatively better privacy.

They drove there, a journey that took about an hour.

This ski resort has a resort area, and you can soak in a hot spring when you get tired of skiing, so a day is not a waste.

In fact, when Kwon Hyun-hyuk took Minato Saka out, it was already past ten o'clock. It was estimated that by the time they arrived at the ski resort, it would be lunchtime.

"Oh right, I told Tzuyu!"

Sana Minatozaki sat in the passenger seat. After thinking for a moment, she told Kwon Hyun-hyuk about it without much hesitation.

"What was her reaction after I told her?"

Kwon Hyun-hyuk didn't expect that Sana Minatozaki would tell Tzuyu about their skiing trip.

Kwon Seonhyuk was quite curious about her reaction.

"No reaction...it should be fine!"

Sana Minatozaki couldn't help but feel a little worried, but then she thought that Tzuyu wasn't the type to hold grudges behind people's backs. If she felt something was wrong, she would probably say it directly to their faces!

"you sure?"

"I am sure!"

Sana Minatozaki affirmed.

"Ok."

As the two chatted as they drove, the car slowly drove out of Seoul and headed towards their destination.
