Peninsula: The Best Actor Begins with a Breakup

Chapter 276 You can speak now?
Do I look like a grape?

Nayeon Lim responded as follows.

However, after sending the message, the girl's mood seemed to instantly brighten.

That feeling of being needed by someone you like...it's wonderful.

"Unnie, do we have any schedules this afternoon?" Lim Nayeon asked, leaning closer to her manager with a hint of flattery.

Twice's schedule is already incredibly hectic.

The last two or three months of the year are usually the busiest time for a group. They have to attend various award ceremonies, prepare for stages, and TWICE also started a six-city tour in Japan last month. It's already quite impressive that the members can manage to keep up.

If it weren't for the fact that she could often call Mingyan to relieve stress, Lim Nayeon really felt like she was on the verge of becoming depressed.

Too tired.

In the innocent dreams of young girls, being an idol should be a glamorous profession, enjoying the cheers and attention of thousands.

However, after they actually debuted, they discovered the huge gap between reality and their dreams: the embarrassment of not being able to become famous despite their hard work, the pain and confusion of sleepless nights, and the overwhelming amount of negative comments compared to their fans...

Even if they manage to get through everything and the group becomes famous, they might still be too busy to experience what it's like to be a star.

Lim Nayeon has an anchor point in her heart, which is the support that allows her to surface and breathe fresh air.

Now that damn support wants to eat grapes.

If you want to see me, just tell me what's so great about grapes!
"The afternoon should be fine... We have to go to the recording studio tonight." The manager thought about today's schedule. Twice is making a comeback in April, and they've already started preparing.

Artists' time is fragmented. Sometimes, after finishing a schedule, they might go back to their dorm to change clothes and sleep for an hour or two before having to set off again for the next event.

Sana Minatozaki thus contributed a classic GIF of herself dozing off on a variety show.

Lim Nayeon smiled broadly and said, "Unnie~ Can I go out for a bit?"

"Nayeon, you've been going out a bit too often lately."

The manager also felt sorry for these girls; TWICE's schedule was simply inhuman.

The group consists of nine girls, the oldest of whom, Nayeon, is not yet 23 years old, while the youngest, Chaeyoung and Tzuyu, are only 19. They are so tired every day that they can fall asleep as soon as their heads hit the pillow.

However, despite feeling sorry for the artist, she still had to say some things to prevent the artist from making a mistake.

The company isn't actually afraid of its artists dating. Compared to the negative stories they deliberately create, dating is a minor issue. What they fear is the lack of control. Nobody wants their artist to be a ticking time bomb.

Nayeon has had a long training career and is the ace of the group. If something happens to her, things will become very troublesome.

"I know, so I still need more help from you, unnie." Rabbit Teeth grabbed her manager's arm and started using her cute and charming tactics.

She firmly adhered to the three-year no-dating rule.

Lim Nayeon knows very well what an idol should do: maintain a good image in front of fans and become their dream, but that doesn't mean she can't be herself.

Work and life should be viewed separately.

The agent really didn't know what to do with the buck teeth: "Alright, do you want me to give them to you?"

She couldn't wait to follow Lim Na-yeon around.

"No need, I'll be back on time." Lim Nayeon immediately smiled and said, "Thank you, unnie~"

Let's go buy grapes.

……

Mingyan, on the other hand, was looking at his face in the mirror.

If I look too healthy, it will be easy for Lim Nayeon to notice, and then the whole thing will lose its effect.

"Yes, that's the kind of sallow look I want."

The man nodded in satisfaction, then lay back down on the bed, playing on his phone while waiting for Lim Nayeon to come over. Having a friend who was certain she would come over because of his "coquettishness" gave him a sense of security.

Even though Lim Na-yeon's reply was full of disdain.

"Ding-dong." Mingyan had only been lying down for a short while when the doorbell rang.

He jumped up to open the door and brought in the takeout he had ordered. He had been worried that Lin Nayeon would arrive before the takeout, and then the secret would be out.

Mingyan carefully carried the takeout to the kitchen and put it away, then lay back down in bed as a patient.

He was counting his breaths, but he fell asleep without realizing it. Being able to speak again doesn't mean his cold is completely gone; if he overexerts himself, it can easily relapse. ...

"Drip drip."

I don't know how much time passed, but then I heard the sound of someone entering a password outside the door.

Then, Lim Nayeon came in carrying the fruit she had bought.

The girl paused for a moment, but no one greeted her. The house was quiet inside and out, as if no one was there.

Rabbit Teeth bent down and took off her shoes.

She saw the slippers that Kim Ji-won had taken, sneered, and went into the house wearing only her socks.

Lim Nayeon placed the fruit on the dining table, slowly walked towards Mingyan's room, gently turned the doorknob, and peered inside.

Someone is lying quietly in bed, breathing long and evenly.

Sleep soundly.

"I rushed over here, but you're sleeping soundly." Lim Nayeon walked to the bedside, her eyes glued to Mingyan's face.

However, there are advantages to being quiet; it's better than the chaotic mess we had last time.

The girl slowly raised her hand, seemingly wanting to touch Mingyan's face, but pulled it back just before touching him, as if someone had an electric shock to them.

This guy rarely gets sick, but the vulnerability he displays when he is ill is so fascinating.

At least, Mingyan doesn't whine and ask for grapes when she's not busy.

In Lim Nayeon's mind, her sickly best friend was in a terrible state, with her hands tied to the headboard and her holding a whip, ready to punish this disobedient fellow.

Slap him when he talks to Kim Ji-won, slap him when he treats Kim Ji-soo better than him, and slap him again when he's had so many girlfriends.

After finishing her treatment, she applied medicine to Mingyan's wounds little by little, her rabbit-toothed gaze transforming into an imaginary hand that slowly glided along the man's muscle lines.

hiss……

That's a bit too exciting.

"Nayeon, when did you arrive?"

Mingyan groggily opened his eyes and found his friend standing in front of his bed with a flushed face.

"You scared me." Lim Nayeon shuddered and couldn't help but shiver.

It scares people to death.

Mingyan said helplessly, "I should be the one who was startled. I opened my eyes and found someone standing in front of my bed."

Fortunately, only a few girls knew the password to his house, otherwise it would have been even more terrifying.

For example, many people know the password to Lee Kwang-soo's house. After drinking with his friends, he would often find a random place to sleep, and his gang members would often stay there overnight.

"Am I an outsider?" Rabbit Teeth suddenly asked.

"No."

Mingyan shook his head.

It's not unusual for Kim Jisoo and Lim Nayeon to be at my house; they're regular visitors.

"That's settled then, I bought them for you..." Lim Nayeon was about to turn around and go out to wash the grapes, but then she turned back and stared intently at Mingyan: "You can talk now?"

"I……"

What a blunder! The man had just woken up and hadn't realized what was happening yet. He had originally planned to fool Rabbit Teeth a little.

Now it's good enough that they're not coming after me.

The girl walked over and touched Mingyan's forehead: "Do you still have a fever?"

It's refreshingly cool and perfectly healthy.

"Nayeon, surprise~"
