Peninsula: The Best Actor Begins with a Breakup

Chapter 317 Jeongyeon, I want you...

In fact, there's no need to do anything special.

All he needed to do was continue to be good to Lin Na-yeon, genuinely good to her, with the ultimate goal of turning himself into the "victim."

I'm sorry, Nayeon, I actually like you a lot, but...

We're good friends, this won't do.

Don't you really care?

The scumbag is all too familiar with the above dialogue. As long as it appears, it means that his goal has been initially achieved, and it will be much easier to continue.

Mingyan knew all too well that the worst thing about doing this kind of thing was to make promises too easily at the beginning. If things were perfect during the relationship, the outcome would be unbearable if they broke up or the woman cheated.

Disappointment always begins with expectation.

At least at the beginning, you should show your struggles and hesitations, plant that seed, and if you're clever, you can even make the other person feel indebted.

Commonly known as CPU... oops, no, PUA.

Of course, such love cannot be considered pure, but you can't have it both ways; there are gains and losses. It all depends on what you really want.

Not a single one can be missing; otherwise, there will be a price to pay.

That said, another advantage of dating your idol is that it's very convenient to coordinate your schedule. They are all extremely busy, and with TWICE's hectic schedules, it's normal not to see them for ten days or half a month.

In this situation, even if Mingyan were to lie, Lim Nayeon might not be able to detect it.

He simply doesn't like that approach.

From an emotional perspective, he openly declares that he likes each and that his feelings for each are genuine. From a rational perspective, he can also create a schedule, spending time with you today and with her tomorrow.

There's absolutely no conflict.

"I'm not asleep yet, and I'm already dreaming."

He made a self-deprecating remark.

All of the above are his assumptions based on an ideal state. It's hard to say what will actually happen in reality. What if Lim Nayeon is not what he imagines?
Playing with women and playing with emotions are two different concepts.

"Ji-won, Na-yeon..." The man kept repeating these two names; it was indeed hard to give up.

Also, why do I always wonder what Jisoo would think?

……

"No, I have to take action."

After hanging up the phone, Lim Nayeon suddenly blurted out this sentence.

She only found out today that Mingyan would wake Kim Jisoo up in the middle of the night to pee, even though she also goes to the toilet at night, and that guy never seemed to care.

This gave Rabbit Teeth a sense of crisis; things that were once taken for granted became a great threat when viewed from a different perspective.

If the relationship between Mingyan and Kim Jisoo changes, what chance will others have?

I have to do something.

"Nayeon unnie, are you crazy?" Yoo Jeongyeon, who was lying on the sofa applying a face mask and playing on her phone, was startled. Why did this older sister suddenly become so neurotic after calling back?

Lim Nayeon snuggled into her second sister's arms: "Jeongyeon~"

"speak nicely."

Yoo Jeong-yeon patted the older sister on the shoulder.

She's a woman who should have a boyfriend, what's with her always snuggling into my arms like that?

I got to enjoy it for that guy first, right?

"I just suddenly felt uneasy." Rabbit Tooth snuggled into her friend's arms a couple of times; it was soft and comfortable.

The second sister is the type who keeps a low profile. Although her legs are not as long as Chou Tzu-yu's, and her chest is not as exaggerated as Park Ji-hyo's or Hirai Momo's, she is not bad overall.

With a height of 1.68 meters, a magnanimity that rivals Lim Na-yeon and Minatozaki Sana, and a uniquely cool and charismatic aura, her advantages are quite obvious.

Yu Dingyan pulled down the face mask on her face: "It's normal to feel uneasy. That guy wasn't exactly an honest person to begin with."

“I’m not talking about that…” Lim Nayeon corrected her friend, “Also, he’s not the kind of person you think he is.”

"Nayeon unnie, do you mean... he's very honest?"

"Dishonest, not honest at all."

Rabbit Teeth shook her head. She just liked to speak frankly; she wasn't blind. That guy's smooth-talking, womanizing ways were anything but honest.

"That's settled then, Nayeon unnie. You see him dating, breaking up, and then dating new girlfriends, don't you really care at all?" Yoo Jeongyeon had been wondering about this for a long time.

Putting aside the influence of Mingyan, she always thought this older sister was a career-oriented, strong woman.

Strong, earnest, hardworking, and kind, she is the best eldest sister in TWICE.

Lim Nayeon only seems to transform into a different person when she encounters things related to Myung-eon; naivety, innocence, and sweetness seem to suddenly materialize in her.

Rabbit Teeth thought for a moment: "I care a little, but not that much."

"You don't care now?"

"Of course not, that's someone I like."

She made it clear that all her previous ex-girlfriends were irrelevant, as they couldn't compare to her and Kim Ji-soo. It was just that Kim Ji-won, that weirdo, came along in the middle.

"How many relationships has he actually had?" Yu Dingyan asked casually.

The second sister has known Mingyan for quite some time, but some of her past experiences are only known to very close people; she has only heard bits and pieces of her friend's complaints.

“I can’t remember, but there were a lot.” Lim Nayeon played with Yoo Jeongyeon’s slender fingers: “But I feel sorry for him.”

"Pitiful?"

So pathetic that all you have left are women, huh? You wouldn't understand the troubles of a playboy.

"That's because nobody really loves him. Those girls are only after him because he's good-looking, or because they can get some resources from him." Lim Nayeon saw through this perfectly.

She often pretended to be Mingyan's girlfriend, and could usually drive him away as soon as she showed up, without much effort at all.

Yu Dingyan raised her hand: "Wait a minute, let me sort this out."

Judging from what Lim Na-yeon said, it seems like that guy has become the victim.

This isn't right.

"What don't you understand? Let me explain it to you."

"Suppose those girls were only after his body, then wouldn't he have accepted it?" Yu Dingyan finally managed to organize her thoughts.

"Yeah, because I wasn't pursuing him back then."

"..."

The second sister felt she was about to be convinced by Lim Nayeon; at least her logic made sense.

"Jeongyeon, I just can't bear to part with him." Rabbit Teeth gently sniffed the fragrance emanating from her friend: "I want to stand closer to him."

Lim Na-yeon still remembers seeing Ming-yeon lying in a hospital bed when she was a child.

She was crying, while he was laughing.

Perhaps, from that moment on, the seed in the girl's heart was planted, and after so many years of fermentation and nurturing by Kim Ji-won, it finally sprouted successfully.

"Ugh~ What you said is giving me goosebumps."

That's just how it is.

Lim Nayeon was also a little embarrassed.

However, someone had to listen to her girlish secrets from all these years, and Kim Ji-soo wasn't a very suitable person.

"Hey, Nayeon unnie, you two have known each other for so long, have you ever..." Yoo Jeongyeon's expression suddenly turned gossipy.

Lim Nayeon paused for a moment before realizing what she meant: "No, we're just friends now!"

At most, she would exchange a few ambiguous words with Mingyan, but their interactions never crossed any lines.

More than friends, less than lovers.

"Then how can you be sure that oppa doesn't consider you a friend anymore?"

Yu Dingyan asked a core question.

She can only see that her older sister is putting in a lot of effort on her own, and she has no idea what Mingyan is thinking at all.

"So, Jeongyeon, I need your help!"
