Peninsula: I'm the Top Streamer

Chapter 575 Let's see who's faster.

In the pitch-black screening room, only the large screen emitted a bright light from time to time, accompanying the acting and the changing images of the plot, and the light shone on the faces of the audience.

The overhead projector shone beams of light onto the large screen, and tiny dust particles drifted and swirled in the air between the beams.

The brightness of the projected light gradually dimmed with each row, until it reached the last row, in a corner where no one noticed it.

Quan Xuanhe sat upright, his eyes fixed on the big screen, as if he were carefully watching the development of the plot. He seemed to be captivated by the ups and downs of the story, and would occasionally take a deep breath to concentrate.

In the picture, Han Hyo-joo is dressed as a pirate and is talking to Lee Kwang-soo. The pirate outfit gives him a wild and dashing look, full of untamed charm.

Kwon Hyun-hyuk couldn't help but exclaim in admiration at the scene. He took a deep breath, straightened his posture, leaned forward slightly, and became more focused, wanting to see Han Hyo-joo on the big screen more clearly.

This charm made him unable to resist being captivated.

A soft rustling sound came from within the frame, as if Han Hyo-joo had burst out of the frame and come to his side.

Han Hyo-joo wiped her mouth, sniffed, and put the coat she had just taken off and covered herself with back on.

Under the bright light reflected on the big screen, a rosy blush rose on her cheeks.

"water."

Kwon Hyun-hyuk handed the bottle of mineral water next to him to Han Hyo-joo and unscrewed the cap.

Han Hyo-joo took it with one hand, while rubbing her sore calves with the other.

"Isn't Nuna being too bold? Isn't she afraid of being photographed?"

Kwon Hyun-hyuk was very considerate, so he took the initiative to massage Han Hyo-joo's legs and whispered a question in her ear with a smile.

I felt refreshed after the preview screening.

"Do you think I'm a fool?"

Han Hyo-joo rolled her eyes, tilted her head slightly, and took small sips of water, her throat bobbing as she did so, just like before.

She was too tired to talk at that moment, too tired to say much more.

"No, Nuna is a very intelligent woman, she's absolutely adorable."

The two sat in the very back corner, unnoticed by most of the media reporters and invited actors who were intently watching the film.

Kwon Heon-hyuk had no interest in the movie whatsoever; his attention was entirely focused on Han Hyo-joo sitting to the side.

"Come with me after the preview screening today."

"I still have filming to do, so I'm afraid I won't have time."

Kwon Hyun-hyuk politely declined, which was somewhat like turning his back on someone after he had already done so.

"How come you're always so busy, even busier than me?"

Han Hyo-joo's beautiful eyes widened slightly, her tone a little displeased.

"I'm afraid that's true."

He nodded seriously, which earned him a somewhat surprised look from Han Xiaozhou. Then the beauty flew into a rage, elbowing him several times and pinching his waist, spinning him around 180 degrees.

"Find a fight!"

Quan Xuanhe gasped in pain and became obedient, no longer provoking this woman.

"You've been having quite a few fun lately, are you hanging out with those girls from Twice?"

Seeing him wince in pain, Han Hyo-joo let go and gently rubbed his arm, not wanting to hurt her precious little man.

"Yes."

"Is it still your ex-girlfriend?"

"Yes."

"This is really a never-ending entanglement."

Seeing that he was still so honest with her, Han Hyo-joo felt slightly satisfied and leaned gently on his shoulder.

It doesn't matter if he messes around with those young girls, as long as he's honest with himself. After all, they're not on the same level, so there's no point in comparing them.

Kwon Hyun-hyuk gently embraced Han Hyo-joo, his large hand softly caressing her shoulder.

The movie continued, and with about half an hour left before it ended, Han Hyo-joo gently pulled away, looked up at him, and asked, "Give me a kiss?"

Kwon Hyun-hyuk gave a polite but slightly awkward smile.

Even tigers don't eat their cubs.
Han Hyo-joo rolled her eyes at him and stood up. "I'm going outside first. When you stand up to speak later, say something nice."

Accompanying this sentence was Han Hyo-joo's figure as she walked out of the screening room step by step in high heels, her tall figure and flowing black hair.

After she left, Kwon Heon-hyuk wasn't really interested in watching the movie properly; it was a complete waste of time. He just idly started scrolling through his phone.

It wasn't until the very end of the screening, when the end credits were being rolled and the theater lights came on, that Kwon Heonhyuk finally looked up.

"Come on, let's welcome the main creative team! Where's the applause?"

The host walked up with a microphone, looked at the media reporters and actors in the audience, and said with a smile.

Applause erupted at this moment, not as praise for the film, but as a polite expression.

"So, what did everyone think of this movie? Let's start by having our protagonist say a few words..."

Looking down slightly, Kwon Hyun-hyuk glanced at the main cast members standing in front of the curtain, then his gaze settled on Han Hyo-joo.

At this moment, she showed no signs of anything amiss, with a gentle smile on her face, appearing dignified and poised.

After the main cast members spoke, the host started calling out the celebrities present, and the first one he called out was Kwon Heonhyuk.

Within the industry, or even outside the industry, who doesn't know that Kwon Hyun-hyuk and Han Hyo-joo have a good relationship?

News reports have already surfaced that Han Hyo-joo is preparing to star in Kim Eun-sook's new drama, "Dark Glory," a collaboration between two powerful actors that is expected to make it one of the most anticipated future dramas in the industry.

Secondly, the news that Kwon Heon-hyuk was interested in starring in the film had already been reported by the media some time ago.

The process of casting a character in a TV series is usually frequently reported by the media. For example, there may be vague statements such as which actor is expected to star in which project or that negotiations are underway. The casting news is widely reported by the media.

This is different from the situation in China, where things are usually only revealed to the media when everything is completely decided and filming is about to begin.

For months before Han Hyo-joo was confirmed to star in "Dark Glory," rumors circulated that Song Hye-kyo would be playing the role. However, Han Hyo-joo acted swiftly and decisively, securing the role without hesitation.

It sounds easy, but in reality, Han Hyo-joo put in a lot of effort. Although she is a big star, screenwriter Kim Eun-sook is no small fry either. She also put in a lot of effort and showed her sincerity before she could win over Kim Eun-sook.

"Then, let's hear what Xuanhe-xi has to say about his feelings after watching the movie?"

The host looked at Kwon Seonhyuk, and the camera turned to focus on him as he sat in the back row.

He put on a mask, stood up, took the microphone, and began to speak under Han Hyo-joo's smiling gaze.

"The visual effects in this movie are very good, and the characters are also very well performed, especially Hyo-joo Noona. Her action scenes are really impressive, and her fierce close-quarters combat with the enemy is crisp and clean..."

"His acting is also very good, and his performance is very subtle. I think everyone can completely trust him in this aspect."

The professional film critics present all knew how good the movie was. Some of them, having been paid, naturally went against their conscience and praised it excessively. Kwon Heon-hyuk, however, did not go against his conscience and praised the movie. He focused on Han Hyo-joo and praised her performance.

Upon hearing this, Han Hyo-joo's smile widened, and she raised the microphone and looked at Kwon Hyun-hyuk from afar as soon as he finished speaking, saying, "You're making me cringe with your sweet talk."

The crowd burst into laughter, and Quan Xuanhe cupped his hands in greeting before sitting down.

As the screening proceeded according to schedule, Kwon Hyun-hyuk waited until the final closing ceremony. After the screening, he said goodbye to Han Hyo-joo, who was busy socializing, and then left to rush back to the film crew.

...

Yeh Shuhua subtly moved closer to Zhao Meiyan. Because of Zhou Ziyu's request, she now had to rack her brains to figure out how to get information out of Zhao Meiyan.

She felt a little troubled.

"Miyeon-unnie."

Ye Shuhua called her name, causing Zhao Meiyan, who had just gotten up and was getting ready to leave the dormitory for rehearsals, to stop.

Are we going to rehearsal today?

"Yes, this is the last rehearsal. The next one will be at SBS TV station."

Zhao Meiyan paused her movements slightly, turned her head to look at Ye Shuhua lying on the sofa, her eyes slightly puzzled.

What's the matter?

"Okay, goodbye, unnie."

Ye Shuhua felt it was a bit difficult to speak up, and it seemed like it wouldn't be easy to ask, so she simply gave up for the time being.

Zhao Meiyan froze, staring at her with a somewhat bewildered look.

What are you doing?

"I'm leaving."

Zhao Meiyan said this hastily, then left the dormitory and took the van to the rehearsal room.

Everyone is here.

Hwang Ye-ji, Jang Won-young, Ahn Yoo-jin, Kim Min-ju.

Of the four people besides him, three were former members of IZ*ONE.

She was the oldest sister, and when she arrived at the practice room, everyone greeted her one by one.

Zhao Meiyan is easy to get along with and wants to make friends, but her schedule is too busy and the intensity of her dance practice is also quite high. Although she can chat and laugh for a few minutes in between, she is still focused on dancing overall. However, Zhao Meiyan's dancing is not very strong, which makes her unable to let loose and jump around.

After Zhao Meiyan left, Ye Shuhua pondered for a moment, then got up and went to find Minnie.

"Did he say during that conversation that he was waiting for Mi-yeon unnie's thoughts?"

"Do you think Mi-yeon unnie actually wants to get back together with him?"

Minnie might know more about the inside story than she does.

"Of course they would, otherwise why would they go through such a long cooling-off period without mentioning breaking up? How cold would they have to be?"

"They should be getting back together soon, I have a feeling that..."

As a Thai, Minnie's way of thinking is not as conventional as that of people from the three East Asian countries.

In her country, there are transgender people, older white men in heat, and families with one father and several mothers, and the acceptance of these things is much higher.

Not to mention that Kwon Hyun-hyuk was just having a simple relationship with someone else, and he didn't do anything that would cause public outrage.

"That's it."

Ye Shuhua thought for a moment and continued the discussion with her, "So do you think two people could really get back together if they got back together?"

"Right, Xuanhe said that. He's actually quite good to Meiyan, except he's a little indifferent."

There are some things Zhao Meiyan won't say to Ye Shuhua, but she will discuss with Song Yuqi and Minnie, so she is quite familiar with them.

In Minnie's opinion, everyone has some minor flaws. Kwon Heonhyuk is so outstanding, it's normal for him to have some minor shortcomings in other aspects.

The perfect man simply doesn't exist.

"Let's not get back together. I feel like it would be very awkward for Tzuyu if we did."

Ye Shuhua persisted.

"That's what they say, but Tzuyu is my ex-girlfriend, she's already an ex..."

Although Minnie met Kwon Heonhyuk through Park Jihyo and Tzuyu, she was simply stating the facts.

We still maintain a firm grip on fairness.

"Ok."

After saying this, Ye Shuhua turned and left, returning to her room.

Minnie, lying on the bed, lazily raised her head and glanced outside the door, then slumped back down on the bed and started fiddling with her phone.

"I've got the information."

"You have to promise me first that you will tell me what you want to do, and you can't make impulsive decisions on your own."

Yeh Shu-hua sometimes feels that Tzu-yu is more like a younger sister, soft and gentle, needing someone to take care of her.

When Chou Tzu-yu saw the pop-up message, she took a closer look and immediately became much more serious.

"I will, you can trust me."

Why does Ye Shuhua think she's going to do something foolish? Will she really act like a fool?

At this moment, Chou Tzu-yu began to mentally torment herself.

She doesn't think so.

"They're getting back together soon."

Those five short words made Chou Tzu-yu's breathing quicken instantly. Her eyes were fixed on those words, and her heart began to churn, alarm bells ringing.

"Miyeon and him should get back together soon. I don't know who made the first move, but it should be Miyeon. He's probably waiting for Miyeon's decision."

The guesses and the actual situation were not far off; it was indeed the case.

Chou Tzu-yu's heart sank, and she began to ponder deeply.

If that's the case, she doesn't have much time left.

If she wants to do something, she should be faster than Zhao Meiyan.

Once she made up her mind, Chou Tzu-yu began to think about what to do.

She was going to meet with Kwon Seon-hyuk.

We have to meet.

Chou Tzu-yu began to feel anxious, ready to do something.

The advantage of their current schedule is that they won't start their tour in the United States until February. In the month or so in between, apart from preparing for their next comeback album, running some promotional activities, and having individual schedules, they will have some free personal time.

She had originally planned to use this free time to go home, but after thinking about it this way, she decided not to go home.

"I see."

Zhou Ziyu snapped out of her thoughts, replied briefly to Ye Shuhua's message, her soft lips slightly pursed, her mindset completely different from before.

On the surface, she appeared calm and showed little reaction, but in reality, a storm was raging inside her.

Zhao Meiyan and Zhou Ziyu.

The question now is which of the two will move faster.

Yeh Shu-hua, who told Chou Tzu-yu the news, didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.
