Peninsula: I'm the Top Streamer

Chapter 568 There's more to the story tonight.

The concert came to a successful close.

Before the Twice members took their final bows, Kwon Heonhyuk left the venue before the others to avoid causing a crowd of fans around him when he left.

Even so, under the watchful eyes of the crowd around him, who were all taking pictures with their phones, he left the venue and went backstage.

Kwon Heonhyuk eventually found himself backstage at Twice's location.

Watching Twice on stage from backstage is a different kind of experience. Seeing the nine girls standing on the stage, their backs shining brightly under the lights, while the cheers and light sticks from the audience are like twinkling stars orbiting planets.

The charm of an idol is on full display at this moment.

That's where the feeling of dating them comes from; otherwise, with thousands of beautiful women in the world, why choose them out of all people?

Goodbye, ONCE!

"Goodbye~"

"Thank you everyone for wishing me a happy birthday!!!" Sana Minatozaki, dressed in a Christmas tree costume, looked at the audience with a bright and cheerful smile, waving her hand in front of them.

"We're leaving now! See you later! Take care on your journey!"

The members' noisy voices echoed throughout the venue. As the large screen slowly pulled up, the members disappeared from the stage, and the concert came to an end.

"Congratulations on the successful conclusion of the concert. You've worked hard."

After the Twice members came down from the stage, the rest of the group applauded them.

Quan Xuanhe clapped along, and gave a thumbs-up after they looked at him.

“Charada”.

Chou Tzu-yu looked at him, her smile brightening considerably; clearly, the two-plus hours of the concert had made her cheerful and lively.

"Tzuyu did a great job!"

The one who said those words wasn't Kwon Hyun-hyuk, who was staring at Chou Tzu-yu, but Yeh Shu-hua, who had somehow squeezed in and bypassed Kwon Hyun-hyuk to go straight up to Chou Tzu-yu and stick together.

Chou Tzu-yu was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Yeh Shu-hua who was holding her, and quickly put on a smile in response.

"Thank you, Shu Hua."

Minnie went over and chatted warmly with Mina, while Sana Minato looked at Kwon Hyun-hyuk with a smile.

The concert had just ended, and fine beads of sweat were faintly visible on her face, which undoubtedly highlighted her truly radiant, dewy skin.

Her charming and adorable demeanor on stage was unmatched at other times, and her posture made Kwon Heonhyuk, who was sitting below, unable to stop looking at her.

"So, how did you feel about our concert?"

"Very good, but there is one slight drawback."

Kwon Hyun-hyuk looked at Minatozaki Sana, who was wearing a loosely dressed Christmas tree cosplay outfit, and a cryptic smile appeared in his eyes.

"where?"

Sana Minatozaki tilted her head, her eyes filled with confusion.

"No Sana No Life"

"Moya!"

This made Sana Minatozaki unable to hold back her laughter, her eyes sparkling with delight.

The two of them were chatting and laughing, looking just like a couple...

Yeh Shu-hua kept Zhou Tzu-yu occupied, preventing her from having a chance to chat with Kwon Hyun-hyuk. However, she felt a little awkward watching him chatting happily with Minatozaki Sana beside her.

The awkwardness wasn't from feeling jealous or annoyed seeing the two chatting happily, but rather from feeling awkward because Ye Shuhua was bothering him and preventing him from chatting with Quan Xuanhe.

"Let's go back and change our clothes first, then take the photos?"

The manager, seeing the members still in their stage costumes, interrupted their conversation and gestured.

After a concert, artists often have a photo session, either taking pictures with other artists who came to watch, or with sponsors or people who came from other sources.

The members nodded, and Sana Minatozaki waved cheerfully at him before running back to the locker room with small, quick steps.

Chou Tzu-yu hurriedly waved to Kwon Hyun-hyuk.

"Why didn't you tell me you were coming to the concert?"

After the Twice members left, Minnie looked at Kwon Heonhyuk and asked him with wide eyes.

"I didn't expect you to come to the show."

Kwon Hyun-hyuk smiled and shrugged, indicating that he was unaware of their arrival.

"Did Tzuyu call you?" Minnie looked around and lowered her voice.

"Ah."

Quan Xuanhe nodded.

Ye Shuhua walked to the side, glanced at Quan Xuanhe, seemed to want to say something but hesitated, and then remained silent.

"Miyeon didn't come, you know that, right?"

Minnie has always given people the impression of being a bit carefree and a little eccentric, but when this sensitive topic comes up, she is careful not to let others overhear.

"I'm the person involved, do you think I understand?"

"Ha ha ha ha."

These words actually tickled Minnie's funny bone, making her burst into laughter and forget to continue speaking.

Friends are friends, and whether a friend or teammate is dating or not doesn't affect the friendship.

Many people treat friendship and love differently, and mixing them up can make it difficult for a group of people to get along.

This is especially true in the idol community, where communication is quite frequent.

"Be careful, or Miyeon won't be able to come to the concert, and things will get really awkward~"

After Minnie finished laughing, she started scolding him, telling him to be careful when he did these things and not to make everyone around him feel awkward.

“I’ve been very careful, but these things are not entirely within our control.”

Yeh Shu-hua, who was walking next to Minnie, secretly rolled her eyes as she listened.

The three chatted as they walked backstage to a large, open area with people coming and going, and quite a few staff members walking around.

"So what about you and Meiyan? What's the situation now? Is there any progress?"

The three stood to the side, Minnie covering her mouth and speaking quietly, continuing to be cautious.

"You might be able to ask Meiyan. She was the one who suggested taking some time to cool off. I was the one waiting for news."

Actions should be evaluated based on feedback.

Upon hearing this, Minnie was somewhat disappointed. Clearly, if she had learned something from Zhao Meiyan, she wouldn't have looked so disappointed.

"Ugh, this is such a headache."

Minnie sighed, looking a little annoyed.

But at this moment, Ye Shuhua, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but interject, "Can't you hurry up?"

"If that doesn't work, then..."

Ye Shuhua didn't say the second half of her sentence, but the meaning was already quite clear.

Before Kwon Seonhyuk could react, Minnie, who was sandwiched in the middle, looked up at him and gave him an awkward smile, "I just want to know how things are going between you two as soon as possible."

Even if Ye Shuhua shares the same hatred and dislikes him, it's inappropriate for her to say these things in public. Don't forget that you indirectly ruined his plans before.

"If you can't speak, you don't have to. Not everyone wants to hear you speak." Quan Xuanhe ignored Minnie's attempt to smooth things over and spoke rudely. He didn't like Ye Shuhua to begin with and wouldn't give her the kind of flattery that those sycophants do.

Upon hearing this, Minnie's eyes widened in shock, and she thought to herself that she was doomed.

Ye Shuhua was stunned when she heard such a rude remark. She didn't expect Quan Xuanhe to be so disrespectful and say such harsh words.

"you…!"

When her temper flared, she immediately bared her teeth and glared angrily.

But what use is that to him?

Just as Minnie was about to speak up to smooth things over, a series of footsteps and laughter came from behind, and Twice came out after changing their clothes.

They changed into loose T-shirts, merchandise from their own company, with a cartoon Twice logo, and paired them with loose jeans.

"come on!"

Lim Nayeon waved and shouted at them, followed by the other members, showing a bit of a big sister vibe.

"I heard you guys are making a comeback next year?"

Lim Nayeon looked at Minnie and Yeh Shuhua and asked curiously.

While the group was chatting, Chou Tzu-yu walked over to Kwon Heon-hyuk with a relaxed expression.

"I think I just had a little disagreement with your best friend. Don't listen to her gossip when you get back."

Before Zhou Ziyu could speak, Quan Xuanhe complained, which made her look surprised. "Mo?"

Her gaze fell on Ye Shuhua, who was talking to Lim Nayeon, and then she looked up at Quan Xuanhe beside her with a puzzled expression.

"It's nothing, this is just a test to see if it's your best friend or your ex-boyfriend."

Quan Xuanhe made that joke, not expecting him to delve into it at this time.

Best friend or boyfriend?
Chou Tzu-yu automatically ignored the word 'former' in her mind.

This thought-provoking sentence began to swirl in her mind.

Then it was further converted into two names.

If she had to choose between Ye Shuhua and Quan Xuanhe, who would she choose?

Before she could even think about the question in detail, Nayeon's loud voice forced Tzuyu to pull herself together and look up at Nayeon, who was waving at her.

"Let's take a picture together."

The group stood in a row against the wall, with Yeh Shuhua and Minnie flanked in the middle.

Chou Tzu-yu snapped out of her daze, took a few long strides, and walked over to stand next to Yeh Shu-hua.

The agent stood opposite them, squatting on the ground with his phone, looking for the best angle to take photos.

"Two, three..."

Click and take a picture.

Yeh Shuhua and Minnie stepped back, and Lim Nayeon waved at him, "Come on, come on!"

Quan Xuanhe walked over and stood in the middle of this group of beautiful girls. It was no exaggeration to say that the air was filled with fragrance; it was a mixture of perfumes and various other scents emanating from each of them.

Tzuyu on the left, Sana on the right.

One dragon and two phoenixes.

Facing the camera, Chou Tzu-yu and Minatozaki Sana smiled brightly, especially Chou Tzu-yu, who rarely makes big expressions in front of the camera; at this moment, her smile was genuine and heartfelt.

Needless to say, Sana Minatozaki's smile is undeniably captivating.

She leaned slightly closer to Kwon Seonhyuk, flashed a big V sign at the camera, and pouted her soft lips towards the lens, looking charming and alluring.

Sana Minatozaki is very good at posing at this moment.

Although it was said that her relationship with Kwon Hyun-hyuk was clandestine, what woman could truly maintain such a risky, inferior relationship without any complaints?

There's always a need to express something in one's own way.

"OK OK."

After the photo session, Kwon Heonhyuk stepped aside, and then some other people he didn't know came to wait to take photos with Twice.

Taking photos is one thing, but some people actually come looking for Kwon Heon-hyuk with their phones after taking the photos!
"Want to take a picture with me?"

Quan Xuanhe looked at the stranger, whose identity he didn't know, with some surprise.

"I'm sorry, but I really like you. It feels like it's a rare thing to meet someone like that."

Finally, he nodded happily and took a picture with the girl.

But this wasn't the beginning. After others saw him taking photos with them, some started to follow suit, and two or three of them came over to take photos with him. Among them were people from Twice's huge concert team.

This scene was both unexpected and logical.

Kwon Hyun-hyuk has a very low profile. Whenever he appears in front of the camera, it's always at a major event. There are very few chance encounters with him in private, and he doesn't even do many commercial performances.

His performance at the MAMA awards ceremony almost two weeks ago also generated a huge amount of buzz and attention, with highlights circulating wildly online.

Therefore, he is very tempted now, even in South Korea where people are used to seeing celebrities.

"Wow, this is really popular! Anyone who didn't know better would think you were holding a concert."

Seeing that quite a few people were still taking photos with Kwon Heonhyuk, Park Jihyo couldn't help but tease him mischievously, saying that he was overshadowing the main character.

Quan Xuanhe waved his hand, showing that he had no intention of stealing the limelight at this moment.

"Want to go out for dinner together tonight?"

Park Jihyo looked at him and smiled as she extended an invitation.

"Is it appropriate for me to go while you're celebrating?"

Quan Xuanhe glanced at the other members and shook his head slightly. He didn't want to get involved in their internal celebration, after all, he was an outsider.

Park Jihyo clicked her tongue, "It's okay, and not everyone is together. Some members have things to do tonight."

Some members were going home or to see their boyfriends.

"Yes, yes, we've already invited you, a big star. Do you think we can't hang out with you right now?"

Lim Nayeon chimed in with a sarcastic remark from the side, revealing that she was far less reserved in private than on camera, especially when speaking to Kwon Heonhyuk, someone she had dined with and chatted with quite a bit.

"Let's go."

Chou Tzu-yu's appearance was a done deal. Looking at Kwon Hyun-hyuk with bright, sincere eyes, she finally couldn't bring herself to say the words she had wanted to politely decline.

Sana Minatozaki, standing to the side, simply smiled at Kwon Hyun-hyuk, her thoughts unknown.

What should I do if I'm too popular?

There's nothing we can do about that.

So after the concert, Kwon Heonhyuk inexplicably followed Twice to a barbecue restaurant where they often ate together.

“We’ve been here before when we had concerts, and we come here every time after a concert.”

"There's another game tomorrow, won't that affect your performance tomorrow?"

"Oh, how could we not know? Of course we'd eat less."

Amidst the bustling noise, Kwon Hyun-hyuk naturally found his seat between Minatozaki Sana and Chou Tzu-yu.

Of course, it's also possible that it wasn't his intentional action, but rather that Sana Minatozaki and Tzuyu quietly took up their respective corners around him.
There's more to the story tonight.
