Peninsula: The Best Actor Begins with a Breakup

Chapter 255 Ji-won Unnie, you are the best of his ex-girlfriends.

"How does the porridge taste?"

Kim Ji-won's heart was still beating a little fast.

She's been an honest girl for the past two decades, and now she's a little nervous and excited about suddenly having to switch forms.

"It's a little hot." Mingyan was trying to fill his stomach. Only when he was full would he have the strength to fight against this damn cold. He couldn't lie down any longer.

I can't even imagine what would happen if Kim Ji-won and Kim Ji-soo got together and ignored me.

It's a free-for-all.

Kim Jisoo pushed her bowl over and grabbed Mingyan's bowl, saying, "Eat slowly if it's hot."

This guy wasn't saying anything just now because he was focused on blowing on the porridge.

"Jisoo, where's the gummy candy you promised me?" Mingyan smacked his lips a few times: "Everything I eat now tastes bitter, it has no flavor."

A cold isn't a serious illness, but it can be quite a hassle, making it hard to eat or sleep.

"It's in my bag, I'll get it for you." Kim Jisoo rummaged through the bag she had brought and took out all the remaining gummy candies.

This shows the difference between her and Kim Ji-won. The older sister bought a thermometer and some common cold medicine when she came over, while Kim Ji-soo was thinking about what Myung-yeon would like.

The fourth-dimensional mindset is simple: if you're in a good mood, you'll recover from illness faster.

"Finish your porridge first, then you can have the candy later."

Kim Ji-won picked up the candy and looked at Kim Ji-soo with a smile.

Kim Ji-soo frowned slightly, a strange feeling stirring within her. It felt odd that a third person had suddenly interrupted her conversation with her best friend.

Mingyan looked at Kim Ji-won, who was overflowing with hostess charm, and said, "Noona, you..."

"Also, you need to take your medicine before you go to sleep, your fever hasn't completely gone down yet," Kim Ji-won continued. "The candy that Ji-soo brought will be just right then."

Did you hear that? It's not that I won't let you eat, it's just that I get to decide when you eat.

Kim Jisoo felt a little stifled. She felt like something was off, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

"When Nayeon arrives, could you please make the situation sound more serious?"

For Mingyan, the fever breaking at this time is not good news, otherwise he would not have been able to play the victim in front of Tuya.

"What, are you afraid your ex-girlfriend will be angry?" Kim Jisoo asked with a smile.

"..."

Kim Ji-won is particularly sensitive to the words "ex-girlfriend." She almost thought Kim Ji-soo was talking about her, but it didn't quite sound like it.

"Excuse me, Ji-won unnie, I wasn't talking about you." Kim Ji-soo seemed to realize she had misspoke: "I did give him a stern talking-to when he broke up with you."

After saying that, she looked smug, as if she was waiting for Kim Ji-won to praise her.

"Hehe, you're not talking about Nayeon, are you?"

Kim Ji-won's smile looked somewhat forced.

Kim Jisoo is such a good friend! She can even chime in on whether or not I've broken up with someone. Maybe the reason she's so determined to break up with me is because of you!
After stirring up trouble, Kim Ji-soo pushed the matter back to Ming-yeon: "Ask him yourself."

The man was confused as to whether this guy was doing it on purpose or not. In front of his ex-girlfriend, he mentioned that Lim Na-yeon had played the role of a fake girlfriend. Didn't he have any sympathy for the patient?

"Ouch, my head hurts~" Mingyan lay down on the sofa and started groaning, holding his head.

Some things are better left unsaid; the more you explain, the more confused you become.

"Ji-won unnie, someone was pursuing her while filming." Seeing that someone was pretending to be clueless, Kim Ji-soo had no choice but to step in herself: "Then she asked Na-yeon to pretend to be her girlfriend, so that's why I was joking."

I didn't mean you personally, but you were one of the better ex-girlfriends he had.

That's why they say innocence beats cunning. A simple, quirky remark from this idiot can deliver a devastating blow to Kim Ji-won. The amount of information contained in that one sentence is just too much.

Kim Ji-won knew nothing about Mingyan being pursued or him pretending to be her girlfriend. Why wasn't this guy contacting her?
Also, what does it mean to say that he's one of the best among his ex-girlfriends? Does this guy even rate his ex-girlfriends with his best friend?

Mingyan weakly raised his hand to cover his eyes. Kim Jisoo's mouth should be shut up, she keeps saying whatever comes to mind.

"Ah~ I see. It seems that Nayeon and I are the same."

After Kim Ji-won finished speaking, she gave someone a deep look.

"Ji-won unnie, you're a bit better than Nayeon. You're the real ex-girlfriend, and she's fake." Kim Ji-soo continued to add insult to injury with a grin, talking about ex-girlfriend as if it were some kind of glorious title.

Kim Ji-won's face darkened a little more.

She discovered that Kim Jisoo was indeed more difficult to deal with than Lim Nayeon, in every sense of the word.

Mingyan really wanted to take out his phone and search whether a cold could kill someone, and just take himself away instead of being led astray by Kim Jisoo.

Kim Ji-won, forgetting all about clearing the table, asked, "Ji-soo, as far as you know, how many ex-girlfriends has he had?"

"It's hard to say, but you're probably the closest one."

This guy at least salvaged some of Mingyan's reputation.

The man forced himself to sit up. He figured he should go back inside and lie down. Listening to their conversation would eventually give him heart problems, which wouldn't be good for his recovery.

He originally thought the biggest danger was Lim Nayeon, but unexpectedly Kim Jisoo launched a smooth little combo.

"Where are you going?" Kim Jisoo kept a close eye on her best friend's movements.

Mingyan pointed to his head: "I'm going back to my room to lie down for a while, my head hurts."

He still speaks weakly and listlessly. The best course of action is for him to take his medicine and fall into a deep sleep, preferably one that he can't be woken up at all.

"Let's go, I'll help you inside." Kim Jisoo put the candy she had taken out earlier back with her as she got up, because she couldn't let others dictate what was hers: "Jiwon unnie, I'll leave things here to you."

"It's okay, just remember to make sure he takes his medicine."

Kim Ji-won smiled.

She also needed to sort out her thoughts. Kim Jisoo had messed everything up; without a plan, there was no way to break through.

Kim Ji-soo clumsily poured a cup of hot water and prepared the cold medicine according to the instructions: "Here, take your medicine first."

“Jisoo, I remember you really disliked taking medicine when you were little, you would spit it out as soon as it was put in.” Mingyan sat on the edge of the bed, smiling as he recalled the past.

"You know that was when I was a child."

"You don't like eating bitter things anymore either."

"The water temperature is just right, hurry up and take your medicine." Kim Jisoo personally tested the water temperature and, after confirming it was fine, brought it to Mingyan's lips: "You take your medicine obediently, so that when Nayeon comes later, I can put in a good word for you."

"Are those really nice things?"

"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong in front of Ji-won unnie and you're angry?" It's not normal for an ex-girlfriend to appear at her ex-boyfriend's house, and Kim Ji-soo felt that she had already been very gentle.

Mingyan sighed: "No, if there's a problem, it's my problem."

Kim Ji-won has become an ex-girlfriend. If you can't blame yourself, who can you blame? Are you suggesting that she insisted on taking care of you?
He would never do something so heartless.

"I'm almost moved by Ji-won unnie. She's been cooking and cleaning up. I can't do so many things." Kim Ji-soo watched as Myung-yeon swallowed his medicine, then stuffed a candy into his mouth.

"You two really touched me."

"I didn't do anything..."

Mingyan pointed to his mouth.

"sweet."
