Peninsula: I'm the Top Streamer

Chapter 648 Undercurrents Are Surge, Shocking!

Kwon Hyun-hyuk and Somi emerged one after the other from the bedroom in the corner of the second floor.

He adjusted his belt as he walked, looking as if he had just released something.

Somi, standing behind her, had a blush on her face and her eyes glistening with tears.

She then bent down to straighten her skirt, and after coming out, she walked straight in the opposite direction towards the bathroom.

Quan Xuanhe went downstairs, listening to the faint sound of flowing water, leaving the privacy of the second floor and his earlier indulgence behind.

The deafening noise of the party rushed in, as if trying to wash away the lingering ambiguity.

He had barely stepped onto the bright floor when he was almost immediately met with a pair of bright, inquisitive eyes.

Liu Zhimin was holding a freshly added drink, standing at the edge of the dessert area, staring intently at him.

She clearly hadn't gone far and had been keeping an eye on the stairwell.

"Oppa, you're finally down? You've been up there for so long... Were you talking about something important with Somi-senpai?"

She tried to make her tone sound like a casual inquiry, but the last syllable of her voice betrayed a hint of tension.

Quan Xuanhe stopped and looked at Liu Zhimin.

He could clearly see her slightly pouting lips and the forced nonchalance in her eyes.

He was incredibly curious, or more accurately, he was jealous and suspicious.

He knew it.

The time that passed between Somi catching him and him coming downstairs clearly exceeded Yoo Ji-min's expectations.

Quan Xuanhe strolled closer to Liu Zhimin, but did not answer her question immediately. Instead, he leaned down slightly and looked her over with a slightly teasing and affectionate gaze, as if admiring her current little mood.

"how?"

"Is our Zhimin getting impatient?"

Liu Zhimin gently bit the inside of her lip and retorted, "Ani, I just feel that oppa has been up there for too long. Why did he have to spend so much time alone with her?"

"I hadn't seen her in a long time, so we just chatted for a while. What else could we have done?"

Quan Xuanhe gently patted her arm to tell her not to mind.

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhimin could only obediently listen, pursed her lips, and did not pursue the matter further.

She could only feign anger and glare at him, but her eyes clearly showed only embarrassment and flustered excitement after being teased.

“Oppa is always like this…” she muttered.

"Don't overthink it. Go hang out with your members or grab something to eat. I need to go check on the seniors, okay?"

Liu Zhimin nodded obediently and turned to leave.

She was about to turn around and head towards the dessert area where the members were when her gaze unexpectedly met a pair of gentle yet clearly scrutinizing eyes.

It’s Zhao Meiyan.

Zhao Meiyan stood not far away, holding a drink in her hand, seemingly talking to Minnie, but her eyes accurately bypassed the crowd and landed on Liu Zhimin.

This made Liu Zhimin's heart tighten suddenly, and she reflexively wanted to look away and walk away as if nothing had happened.

It was a bit too sudden, otherwise she definitely wouldn't have panicked.

She even changed direction, trying to get out of her sight.

However, to Liu Zhimin's surprise, Zhao Meiyan did not stay where she was.

She turned her head slightly and whispered something to Minnie, a gentle smile on her face, but she had already taken a step and was walking straight towards Liu Zhimin.

Liu Zhimin's steps subconsciously stopped, and the distance between the two quickly closed.

"Annyeonghaseyo." Zhao Meiyan's voice was soft and pleasant as she stopped a step in front of Liu Zhimin and took the initiative to greet her.

Their attitude seemed very kind.

Liu Zhimin was caught off guard for a moment, but she quickly adjusted her expression, put on a standard smile, and bowed slightly with a hint of obedience towards her senior.

“Yes, Anilhasayyo, Miyeon-senpai.”

The two had met on a music show stage before, with Zhao Meiyan as the MC.

"You were talking to Xuanhe just now, did I disturb you?"

A seemingly ordinary greeting carries a subtle, unspoken probe.

An alarm bell rang instantly in Liu Zhimin's mind.

Her face immediately lit up with the same impeccable smile, and with just the right amount of junior respect, she bowed in return.

“Oppa just now… ah, I mean, Sunhyuk senior, he was such a nice guy, he took such good care of us. He saw me standing there all alone and came over to check on me.”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Meiyan paused for a moment before replying.

"Yes, Xuanhe has always been like that; he's very good at taking care of people."

However, Zhao Meiyan didn't finish speaking, and continued:
“He is always very enthusiastic towards the younger generation and has a good reputation.” She paused, her gaze falling sincerely on Liu Zhimin’s face.

"He has many friends, and sometimes it's hard to tell who he's closest to."

They're talking so intimately, does she really consider Kwon Heon-hyuk one of her own?
Liu Zhimin slightly opened her beautiful almond-shaped eyes, her long eyelashes fluttering, making her look exceptionally innocent.

"Ah...is that so? Unnie...have you always been this close to him?"

To enhance the effect, Liu Zhimin even leaned forward slightly, her tone carrying a perfectly balanced mix of naivety and curiosity. Her voice was light and casual, like casual gossip between friends, yet every word was like a needle, precisely piercing Zhao Meiyan's pre-set defenses.

"I feel like unnie and Hyunhyuk oppa have a pretty good relationship, right? Like really close friends?"

Zhao Meiyan's gentle smile froze for half a second.

That's what I mean.
What means?
An indescribable sense of frustration and resentment suddenly surged in Zhao Meiyan's heart, causing her to catch her breath slightly.

Zhao Meiyan immediately composed herself, forcing the corners of her mouth to curve upwards even more.

She wore a tolerant smile, as if amused by the innocence of her junior, but her gaze became clear and sharp, locking onto Liu Zhimin's eyes.

Her voice remained gentle, even softer, as if she were sharing a sweet secret.

But the weight in his tone was completely different: "I might not have expressed myself clearly just now."

She paused slightly, as if giving Liu Zhimin time to process what she had just heard.

Then, clearly and deliberately, she said, "We're not talking about the kind of 'closeness' you'd have with good friends. I'm Xuanhe's girlfriend, yes, his girlfriend whom he's currently dating."

After she finished speaking, her gaze followed Liu Zhimin's expression closely, not wanting to miss the slightest change.

She waited for the moment when the shock, disappointment, or feigned composure would crumble on that delicate little face.

However, Liu Zhimin's reaction once again left Zhao Meiyan feeling powerless.

A perfectly timed look of confusion flashed in Liu Zhimin's bright eyes, as if she were trying to understand. Then, as if a switch had suddenly been flipped, her eyes widened even more, and she let out a short but genuine gasp.

"Ah—! Mo? So that's how it is."

Her tone was full of sudden realization, with a rising tone at the end, and she looked at Zhao Meiyan with pure and frank eyes: "I never knew that."

Then he muttered something under his breath.

“Oppa never said that before.”

Zhao Meiyan was utterly speechless.

All the intense reactions she had anticipated seemed both naive and superfluous in the face of such a clear and harmless response.

Is she really that slow-witted and clueless?

Or is it just that his acting is too good?
The little whirlpool of frustration in Zhao Meiyan's heart grew bigger and bigger.

Liu Zhimin's reaction made her feel as if all attacks had been deflected by an invisible barrier, and she even had a sense of absurdity that she was making a mountain out of a molehill and worrying unnecessarily.

The other party was not only not discouraged, but also made her, the one who announced her identity, feel a little embarrassed in a seemingly unintentional manner.

The anticipated confrontation never happened, and all of Zhao Meiyan's well-intentioned words had no effect.

Looking at Liu Zhimin's innocent yet radiant smile, all the words she had prepared stuck in her throat, and she couldn't utter a single one.

In the end, Zhao Meiyan could only barely maintain a smile on her face and try her best to make her voice sound less dry.

"Um...thank you."

Even she herself found what she said a little strange.

She wanted to say something more, such as "I hope you don't misunderstand" or "So please keep your distance," but under Liu Zhimin's innocent gaze, these words only made her seem petty.

"Unnie." Yoo Jimin's voice was as light as a hopping bird, as if she hadn't sensed any undercurrents at all.

"The members are calling me from over there, so I'm going over there first."

After saying that, she even waved to Zhao Meiyan and walked briskly to find her members, leaving Zhao Meiyan alone with her cup, silently tasting the complex feelings of frustration, defeat, and slight helplessness.

Seeing Liu Zhimin's nonchalant demeanor, Zhao Meiyan silently turned around, her gaze returning to the dessert table. Looking at the exquisite and delicious pastries, she had no appetite at all.

She instinctively picked up a macaron and took a big bite.

This is really... infuriating.

Zhao Meiyan felt a tightness in her chest.

Quan Xuanhe turned around calmly, picked up a glass of golden whiskey, and walked over with steady steps.

"Jungjae hyung, Woosung hyung, are you having such a good chat?" Kwon Heonhyuk's voice, carrying just the right amount of respect and intimacy, interrupted the lively discussion on the other end.

Lee Jung-jae looked up when he heard the voice, and when he saw it was Kwon Heon-hyuk, a smile immediately spread across his face.

"Xuanhe, come and sit down!" He patted the empty space on the armrest of the sofa next to him.

Jung Woo-sung raised his glass to him, saying, "The location is great, and the atmosphere is wonderful too."

“Jungjae hyung,” Kwon Heonhyuk leaned slightly towards Lee Jungjae, taking the initiative to steer the conversation toward “The Hunt.”

"Recently, there have been so many trailers for my new movie online, the response has been overwhelming."

When his directorial debut was mentioned, Lee Jung-jae's eyes lit up immediately, and he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"The internet is in an uproar! People are saying I've completely ruined your handsome face and that I'm a bad guy!" Of course, this was a joke, and he burst into laughter after saying it.

The conversation on Chungmuro ​​Road was very relaxed and enthusiastic. Everyone looked familiar with each other, and some were even friends. They chatted and laughed in a very relaxed manner after meeting.

"So, how did you handle those young girls?"

Han Hyo-joo patted his arm and asked with a smile.

"It's alright, no problem."

Kwon Hyun-hyuk looked up at Han Hyo-joo and shrugged.

Just as he had guessed, putting them all together actually worked out peacefully.

"Don't get too excited yet, the party isn't over yet."

Upon hearing this, Han Hyo-joo smiled and said this.

That's right, the party isn't over yet.

"Xeonhyuk oppa." Kim Yoo-jung's voice wasn't loud, but it was clear enough, interrupting him with just the right amount of intimacy.

Quan Xuanhe turned around, saw that it was her, and a knowing smile flashed across his eyes.

"Yu-jung, I haven't had a chance to talk to you yet."

Kim Yoo-jung took a few steps closer, her face beaming with the bright smile typical of an actress, carrying a hint of coquettishness towards an acquaintance.

"Oppa must be too busy, considering there are so many people. The party was great, thank you for the invitation."

"It's good that you came." Quan Xuanhe nodded, noticing that she had specially worn a well-tailored milky white dress today, which made her look particularly elegant.

"Did CEO Park tell you about the pre-launch arrangements for '20th Century Girl'? The cover of 'ELLE'." He naturally got to the point.

“Of course.” Kim Yoo-jung’s eyes lit up, her tone sincere.

"I came here today to thank oppa in person."

"I promised you, so of course I'll keep my word." Quan Xuanhe said casually, his gaze sweeping across the room.

He paused, then suddenly remembered something, and turned his gaze to the area where the business district was located a little further away.

“Perfect, an opportunity has arisen.” His gaze was fixed on Liu Hongzhen, who was talking quietly with He Xijian.

"Dior's representative Liu Hongzhen is also here. He has considerable influence in the fashion resources sector. Although the ELLE cover has been finalized, Dior's support will be a great help to the promotion of your film and your career in the fashion industry."

Kim Yoo-jung's heartbeat quickened slightly for a moment.

That's exactly what she's after!
She immediately understood Quan Xuanhe's intention: not only was he helping her secure the cover, but he was also paving the way for her to gain brand favor and even potential collaborations in the future.

This favor was deeper than she had expected.

Damn, she was willing to sleep with Kwon Seon-hyuk, she's totally hit the jackpot!

Kwon Hyun-hyuk tilted his head at Kim Yoo-jung, signaling her to follow.

"Let's go over and say hello."

Kim Yoo-jung quickly adjusted her breathing, maintaining a proper, elegant, and approachable smile on her face, and followed closely beside Kwon Heon-hyuk.

The two walked through the crowd and came to Liu Hongzhen's vicinity.

As Liu Hongzhen was clinking glasses with someone, she caught a glimpse of Quan Xuanhe approaching with a striking young actress. She immediately stopped her whispered conversation and turned around with a warm expression. "Xuanhe-ssi! What's up..." Liu Hongzhen's gaze lingered briefly on Kim Yoo-jung before her professional smile instantly transformed into a deeper warmth.

As one of the leaders of top luxury brands, he has long developed a keen intuition about the looks and potential of celebrities in the industry.

"Representative Liu, let me introduce you." Kwon Hyun-hyuk's voice was not loud but clear. "This is Kim Yoo-jung, a very excellent actress and my co-star in my new film, the female lead of '20th Century Girl'."

He specifically emphasized the "new collaborative film" and the "female lead," indicating that this was a project and person he valued highly.

“Annyeonghaseyo, Representative Yoo Hong-jin. I am actress Kim Yoo-jung.”

Kim Yoo-jung immediately bowed politely to greet him, her demeanor impeccable and her voice clear and pleasant.

How could Liu Hongzhen not know her? Kim Yoo-jung can be considered the nation's little sister, so her popularity is beyond doubt.

"Aigu, who doesn't know Yuzhen? Xuanhe's introduction is a bit redundant."

Liu Hongzhen smiled and waved her hand.

"Yu-jung really likes Dior. She uses a lot of Dior products, right?"

Kim Yoo-jung was surprised by Kwon Heon-hyuk's boldness and directness, but she still nodded with a smile on her face.

Liu Hongzhen understood immediately and nodded with a smile. Then she began to communicate with Jin Yuzhen.

That's all he can do to help. Whether he can win the contract depends on how proactive Kim Yoo-jung is.

To be honest, the fact that he can make a recommendation is valuable enough in itself; many people are just lacking connections and the influence of the recommender.

Kwon Hyun-hyuk had just introduced Kim Yoo-jung to Yoo Hong-jin and was watching them chat animatedly, his gaze casually sweeping across the room to ensure the party atmosphere was right. Just then, his eyes inadvertently caught a scene at the edge of the dessert area, causing his previously smooth thoughts to abruptly halt.

It's Somi.

She was standing and talking with several TWICE members, including Nayeon, Sana, and Mina.

Somi wore her signature bright smile, seemingly sharing something amusing, her movements lively and her body language expressive.

This in itself is nothing special; Kwon Hyun-hyuk even thinks she is very successful in socializing.

However, the instant he looked over, he saw Somi make a movement that made his eyelids twitch slightly.

She casually and even affectionately handed her champagne glass, which she had just taken a few sips from, to Lim Nayeon, who was standing next to her.

Nayeon naturally reached out and took the cup. Without hesitation, she took a small sip from the rim of the cup that Somi had just sipped from.

Even after taking a bite, his eyes lit up, he widened them slightly, and nodded, as if saying "Mahida".

A strange feeling instantly rose from the depths of Quan Xuanhe's heart.

Somi was just now.
Is asking questions when you don't understand considered indirect?

Somi happened to turn her head, and her gaze pierced through the gaps in the crowd, catching sight of Kwon Hyun-hyuk not far away.

In those eyes, which always held a hint of wild, mixed-race charm, a cunning, undisguised interest instantly shone through.

Somi's smile suddenly widened. Without any restraint, and even with a touch of deliberate arrogance, she raised her arm high at him.

This caused Minatozaki Sana and Lim Nayeon, who were listening to her speak, to subconsciously look over as she did so.

"Xuanhe oppa!" Somi's voice was clear and sweet, with a hint of coquettishness, penetrating the not-too-noisy conversation and clearly reaching Kwon Xuanhe's ears.

"Over here! Come on over here!"

As she shouted, all eyes, including those of Lim Na-yeon, Minatozaki Sana, and Mina, focused on Kwon Heon-hyuk.

Quan Xuanhe's mind raced, instantly snapping out of his momentary lapse in concentration. He nodded as he steadily walked towards them.

"Having fun?" He approached the crowd, his gaze sweeping over everyone's faces before finally settling on Somi, the instigator, his tone relaxed and natural.

"Of course!" Somi answered first, as if she wasn't the one who had been sneaking a bite upstairs.

"We're talking about where we should go after the party ends."

"What, isn't my party enough for you guys?"

Kwon Hyun-hyuk spoke with his usual lighthearted banter, his gaze sweeping over Sana Minatozaki and Nayeon Lim before finally settling on Somi's bright smile.

Somi's voice was clear and bright: "Parties are fun, of course! But if we still have energy afterward, we should definitely go for an after-party, right, Nayeon unnie?"

She playfully bumped Lim Nayeon's shoulder.

Lin Nayeon was infected by her energy and nodded with a smile: "Yeah, yeah, Xuanhe, you're too busy. You'll definitely leave early after this. We'll find somewhere to have fun on our own."

Sana Minatozaki rolled her eyes and chimed in with a grin, "That's right, Xuanhe, you're all the rage now. You'll definitely be dragged away by the seniors to drink later, and you won't have time for us."

You don't have time to care about us. Look at all the girls around you, you really can't handle them all!
"Oh, you're making it sound like I'm being disloyal."

Quan Xuanhe smiled and shook his head. Just as he was about to say something more, he caught a glimpse of two figures walking side by side toward the dessert area.

It's Kim Jisoo and Chou Tzu-yu.

The two had clearly just come from a conversation, and there was a strange sense of harmony between them.

With a bright smile on her face, Kim Jisoo turned her head and spoke to Chou Tzuyu beside her. Chou Tzuyu listened attentively, her face softening slightly as she revealed a gentle smile.

When they walked together, one was bright and elegant, the other was graceful and serene, and their auras were surprisingly harmonious.

Somi keenly noticed Kwon Hyun-hyuk's momentary pause and shift in gaze.

She followed his gaze and saw Kim Jisoo and Chou Tzu-yu.

"Oh my! Jisoo unnie and Tzuyu unnie."

Jisoo and Tzuyu have grown closer.

A hint of surprise flashed through Quan Xuanhe's mind.

Jisoo and Tzuyu?

How come the two of them seem to be chatting so naturally?

However, Quan Xuanhe's astonishment was only fleeting, without even a tremor in his eyelashes.

His social smile was flawless. As Somi spoke to attract everyone's attention, he had already turned around with ease, facing the two people who were approaching.

"Are you two having a good chat?"

This was something everyone present knew perfectly well, but on the surface they could only keep quiet and pretend that nothing had happened.

Kim Jisoo approached, her smile deepening as she glanced at him with a hint of insight.

She responded naturally, "Yes, Tzuyu and I have discovered we have a lot in common."

Her gaze swept over Somi, Nayeon, and Sana, and she nodded in greeting. "I was just saying I wanted to come over and get something to eat and some juice."

Chou Tzu-yu smiled slightly, nodded gently, and said softly, "Yes, we had a very pleasant chat." Her tone was calm and natural.

That's really weird.

Kwon Hyun-hyuk couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth slightly.

Sana Minatozaki's bright, fox-like eyes quickly scanned the three of them, keenly catching the almost imperceptible tension in the air caused by the unexpected combination.

A smirk played on her lips, a hint of shrewdness in her eyes, as she chuckled and interjected, "Wow, it seems everyone's having a great time at today's party."

Chou Tzu-yu smiled obediently beside her, not engaging in any specific conversation, but simply standing obediently a little to the side of Kim Ji-soo, indicating that she stood with her.

This tacit understanding deepened the strange feeling in Quan Xuanhe's heart.

He casually picked up his whiskey glass and took a sip.

"As long as you have a good chat."

At this moment, Chou Tzu-yu took out her phone and started typing for some unknown reason.

Kwon Hyun-hyuk's phone, however, vibrated.

He took out his phone and looked at it.

It was inconvenient for Chou Tzu-yu to call Kwon Hyun-hyuk aside in front of everyone, so she sent him a message on her phone.

Kwon Hyun-hyuk looked up and glanced at Chou Tzu-yu, who was standing next to Kim Ji-soo and had just put down her phone.

Her gaze remained calm, as if she hadn't just sent the message.

She tilted her head slightly, gesturing almost imperceptibly towards the villa entrance, indicating that she would go upstairs and wait for him.

"Sorry," Quan Xuanhe said in a low voice, but loud enough for the girls nearby to hear, his face showing a hint of helplessness at receiving a routine message.

"I got a message, something came up, I'll be back in a bit."

His gaze swept quickly across the faces of Jisoo, Sana, Somi, and Nayeon, finally lingering briefly on Tzuyu for half a second.

"You two continue chatting, don't be shy, I'll be back soon."

He didn't wait for their response any longer. Although a hint of inquiry flashed in Somi's eyes, Minatozaki Sana's fox-like eyes narrowed subtly, and Kim Jisoo's gaze also carried a questioning tone.

Holding his wine glass, he pretended to check his phone and walked steadily through the flowing crowd towards the relatively sparsely populated staircase leading from the first floor to the second floor.

The first floor of the villa was bustling with noise, while people on the second floor were still talking quietly or leaning on the railing looking down. However, the spiral staircase leading to the third floor was much quieter.

Quan Xuanhe climbed the steps.

The third floor is a more private area, with a small home theater, a storage room, and a spacious rooftop accessible through a glass door.

At this moment, the door leading to the rooftop was ajar. The night breeze, carrying the coolness of early summer and the dampness of the Han River, slipped in through the crack in the door, which was not fully closed.

Kwon Hyun-hyuk pushed open the door.

The rooftop was larger than he had imagined and had been carefully decorated.

Soft outdoor carpet, comfortable sofa set, low-lying green plants and warm yellow string lights dotting the edges.

The dazzling night view of Itaewon Road in Yongsan District unfolds before my eyes, with Namsan Tower in the distance resembling a silent star.

This place is also perfect for parties.

He saw Chou Tzu-yu, casually placed his wine glass on the low table next to him, and took a few steps closer to her.

Chou Tzu-yu sat on the sofa, having taken off her elegant but perhaps tiring high heels, her bare, fair feet resting on the edge of the sofa in an unusually relaxed posture.

The evening breeze ruffled her loose, slightly wavy long hair. Hearing the sound, she turned her head, her face showing no tension or heaviness, but rather her usual gentle and calm smile.

The smile appeared especially gentle under the soft light of the string lights.

"You're here?" Chou Tzu-yu's voice was soft, carrying a hint of the stillness of the night.

"I guess you might need some fresh air too."

Kwon Hyun-hyuk casually placed his wine glass on the low table next to him, and as he approached her, he naturally loosened the tight buttons on his collar a little.

"Yeah. It's too noisy down there, it's good to find a quiet place," he joked.

"Did I disturb you? I saw you were quite busy downstairs just now." Zhou Ziyu turned her head, looking at him with clear eyes, her tone full of genuine concern.

"No, how could that be?" Quan Xuanhe shook his head and took a deep breath of the cool night breeze. "Actually, I was just looking for a quiet corner to stay in for a while, listen to the wind, look at the scenery, and talk to people. Your message came at just the right time."

He spoke in a relaxed and casual tone, as if he were catching up with an old friend.

"Really?" Chou Tzu-yu's lips curved into a wider smile.

"I chatted with Jisoo unnie downstairs for a while, and we even made plans to have dinner together next time," she shared, her tone light and cheerful.

Kwon Hyun-hyuk raised an eyebrow, genuinely surprised: "Oh? With Ji-soo? What's going on between you two?" He looked at her, his eyes filled with curiosity.

Chou Tzu-yu smiled slightly, "We just chatted about everyday things."

"Neither of us cares about what happened before."

"That's good." Quan Xuanhe said sincerely, and he didn't expect that the relationship between the two of them would improve.

He noticed that Chou Tzu-yu was in the most relaxed state since entering the party.

"You've been quite quiet all evening, and I was worried you weren't used to the liveliness."

"It's alright." Chou Tzu-yu squinted slightly, feeling the night breeze.

Quan Xuanhe turned his head to look at her and found that she had picked up a bright red cherry tomato from the fruit plate on the small table next to her and was eating it in small bites.

She noticed his gaze and smiled shyly, "I didn't eat much earlier, but I couldn't resist when I saw the fruit."

Kwon Hyun-hyuk was amused by her slightly childish behavior: "Just say you're hungry, and I'll have someone bring some food up from downstairs."

"No, no," Chou Tzu-yu quickly shook her head and swallowed the tomato in her mouth.

"Just a little bit," she said, picking up another one and handing it to him. "Want to try some? It's very sweet."

Quan Xuanhe reached out and took it, tasted it, and nodded: "Hmm, it is indeed sweet."

The atmosphere was incredibly relaxed. Then a slightly stronger gust of wind blew by, and Chou Tzu-yu shrank her neck: "Ah, the wind is picking up."

Kwon Hyun-hyuk instinctively wanted to take off his coat for her, but then realized he was only wearing a shirt for the party. So he casually picked up a spare thin blanket from the sofa and naturally covered her legs with it.

Tzuyu pulled the thin blanket up a little, then turned to look at Kwon Seonhyuk beside her, leaning against him and resting her head on his shoulder.

Seeing this, Quan Xuanhe reached out and put his arm around Zhou Ziyu, placing his hand between her shoulders and gently caressing them; the skin felt smooth and supple.

The wind on the rooftop dispersed some of the noise from downstairs, and the night view of the Han River flowed at her feet. She closed her eyes slightly, enjoying this brief moment of tranquility.

Quan Xuanhe felt the warmth in her arms, his fingertips unconsciously lingering on the rounded lines of her shoulders and neck, just about to lower his head to say something.

"Xuan He?"

A clear, familiar voice, tinged with a hint of hesitation, suddenly came from the glass door leading to the stairwell.
