Peninsula: The Best Actor Begins with a Breakup

Chapter 248 Damn, my pants cost over a million...

"Is it really not possible to buy a house in Jeju Island?"

Kim Jisoo was still muttering to herself as she got into the car.

She absolutely loves the life of "facing the sea, with spring flowers blooming," because living in a steel jungle like Seoul always feels a bit oppressive.

"Find me a wife I can live with, and I'll go right now." Mingyan was speechless at this guy's quirky, unconventional thought process.

I only asked her for some advice, but she ended up bringing up Jeju Island.

Although South Korea is not large, it still takes time to get from Jeju Island to Seoul. Mingyan's sister lives in Yangsan, so the two of them don't see each other often, not to mention that there is a sea between them.

Kim Jisoo retorted, "You need help finding a wife? Are you even capable of that?"

"It's easy to find in Seoul, but not in Jeju Island."

Unless, of course, he announces that he is retiring now and will take his meager assets to live a secluded life on an island, just like Lee Hyori.

“You’re so stupid,” Kim Jisoo retorted. “You can buy two houses, one in Seoul and one in Jeju Island. Anyway, you have a lot of free time, so you can go on vacation whenever you want.”

Unlike idols who work year-round, actors often have a considerable downtime after finishing a project.

For example, Mingyan said that it's only February now, and he doesn't have many plans until May or June. He will only participate in a few activities here and there.

"Easy for you to say, give me the money." Mingyan is certainly not poor, but he's not at the point where he can just buy a house casually. He needs to keep some funds on hand in case of any unexpected events.

"Once I've settled the accounts, I'll count the house in Jeju Island as my share."

Kim Jisoo is not stingy at all; she never hesitates to take money, it's just a matter of whether she has money or not.

"It's my house, what kind of nonsense is it to give you a share?" Mingyan set up the navigation: "I'll take you back to your dorm now, otherwise Caiying will start losing hair again."

In his vision, the new house must be bigger, with at least three bedrooms and several bathrooms.

No matter when Kim Minjung moves out, the little guy's room will definitely be kept, and there will also be a guest room for Kim Jisoo and Lim Nayeon, since those two don't always have time.

As for Kim Ji-won...

That older sister can sleep in the same bed with me; there's no need to waste any more space.

In Seoul, to buy a house this big, especially in a good location, you'd definitely need to spend at least ten million won.

There's never enough money in the world.

"What about my pants?" Kim Jisoo rubbed them a few times with her hand, but the handprint was still clearly visible.

"Go back and change, then bring it over and I'll wash it for you."

"Let's forget about it, it's too much trouble. Are you really planning to buy a house in Seoul?"

"It's fake, I was just teasing you all night."

"Oh~"

Kim Ji-soo secretly made a plan in her mind.

From her perspective, Mingyan believes that there should be a room of her own in the new house, and this has become an ingrained part of her mind.

Sigh, since that's the case, I'll reluctantly help him out.

……

"Jisoo unnie, I almost thought you weren't coming back again."

Park Chaeyoung finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Kim Jisoo return.

Rose's main task now is to keep an eye on her older sister, so that Kim Jisoo doesn't disappear again, which would be difficult to explain to the manager.

They've only been in the industry for a little over a year, and YG hasn't completely left them to their own devices yet.

"Chaeyoung, you used the word 'again' incorrectly. I also brought you some delicious food." Kim Jisoo shook the bag in her hand.

This was a clear reminder; Park Chae-young had put in a lot of effort for this guy, and they couldn't let him wait in vain; they had to repay the kindness.

Rosé's eyes lit up immediately: "Thank you, Jisoo unnie~"

My goodness, there was an unexpected bonus.

"You're welcome."

Kim Jisoo put down the food in her hand, changed her shoes, and wanted to go back to her room to change her pants, which had a dark handprint on them and didn't look good.

"Wait, Jisoo unnie, what happened to your pants?" Rosé noticed the handprint: "It looks like..."

It seems like it was Mingyan who touched her. If it were someone else, Kim Jisoo definitely wouldn't be so calm. It would have to be her childhood friend, who's always so open and playful. Several indescribable images flashed through the New Zealand Wild Rose's mind in an instant.

In this cold weather, they wouldn't just stand outside...

That's too dangerous.

"That bastard accidentally put it up there," Kim Jisoo said nonchalantly.

"Unnie, you and Mingyan oppa should still be careful."

"It's him who needs to be careful, why should I be careful?"

Park Chae-young thought about it and it seemed to make sense; it was better for men to wear safety devices than for women to take oral medication.

The two people's conversations were not entirely unrelated, but at the very least, they were completely diametrically opposed.

Rose then remembered something else: "Jisoo unnie, I think I also have a pair of jeans similar to yours. How much did you pay for them?"

"More than 20,000 Korean won, I guess."

"More than twenty thousand?"

"Yes, I bought it online. It wasn't expensive, and it's quite comfortable to wear."

"Damn, that one cost me over a million Korean won (about 7,000 RMB)..."

……

Kim Minjung felt that something seemed off about Mingyan.

When her uncle woke up in the morning, he looked at her with a strange gaze, kind but also with a hint of reluctance.

"Is there something on my face?"

The little guy raised his hand and touched his cheek.

"No, Minjung, after you debut and move out, will you miss your uncle?" Mingyan mentioned this to Kim Jisoo last night, and dreamed about it when he got home.

He's gotten used to Kim Minjung's presence now, and if the little guy leaves again, the house will definitely feel empty.

Sigh, being an empty-nest elderly person is not easy.

Kim Minjung's small face was filled with great confusion: "Debut, move out, Uncle, what are you talking about?"

The girl doesn't even know when she'll debut, and the company hasn't given any news.

"You'll debut someday." Mingyan sighed. "When you start living in the dorms, you might not be used to it. You might have to share a room with other people."

Not every group gets the same treatment as BLACKPINK, who got single rooms from the start. Back then, Nayeon had to share a living room with three other members.

"Uncle, have you received some news?"

Kim Minjung turned his little head and came up with a possibility.

In the little guy's mind, Mingyan is a very influential person with a lot of connections in the industry. He might have gotten the news about the new girl group from Krystal Jung or someone else.

"No, no, I was just expressing my feelings," Mingyan waved his hands repeatedly.

He never expected that his occasional sentimentality would have such a side effect.

"Really?"

"Really, let's eat. We can go to school after we finish eating."

Mingyan awkwardly changed the subject, not wanting his niece to discover his affectation.

A sly smile flashed in Kim Minjung's eyes: "Then... Uncle, you just can't bear to see me move out, right?"

"No, I was just making that up." Mingyan started to deny it again: "Eat quickly, or you'll be late. Students should have some sense of time."

"Uncle, will this room still be reserved for me after I debut?"

"I don't know. You're not allowed to talk while eating."

Kim Minjung forced a smile as he finished his breakfast.

Before leaving home, the girl smiled and said something.

"Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely miss you."
