Peninsula: The Best Actor Begins with a Breakup

Chapter 478 Nuna, you doubt me!

"Of course not."

Mingyan looked utterly bewildered.

His acting skills are simply... oh, I almost forgot, he is an actor himself.

"The last time you said that, you meant you wanted to break up with me." Kim Ji-won was suffering from some PTSD, and she really didn't want to think about those dark and gloomy days after the breakup.

The girl didn't want to cling to Mingyan all the time, but she liked the feeling of having someone waiting for her at home.

For a homebody like Kim Ji-won, home is a small world that she has specially built for herself.

Later, Mingyan barged in and became an inseparable part of it.

If it barged in without the owner's permission, it won't be so easy to run away now.

The man frowned: "Is that so?"

"Yes."

Kim Ji-won nodded vigorously.

Actually, the two of them are not really in a relationship yet, since they haven't gotten back together. But you can't just say that, otherwise it would be like stabbing this woman in the heart.

He wouldn't be such a jerk. The title is just an empty name. The important thing is that he and Kim Ji-won like each other, so there's nothing wrong with breaking up.

Mingyan's current style of doing things is more inclined to "I want it all" compared to his previous "returning the favor after getting rid of the person".

This also indicates that men's personalities are changing.

Kim Minjung: It's all thanks to me!

"I won't do it again. I'd rather die than say the words 'break up' again." Mingyan shook the water off his hands and gently pulled Kim Ji-won into his arms.

Kim Ji-won then relaxed: "I wouldn't have the heart to beat you to death."

"Then I'll kill myself."

"No, your life isn't your own." Kim Ji-won seemed to feel that her words didn't carry enough weight: "And... can you bear to abandon Ji-soo and Na-yeon?"

"What's there to be reluctant about?"

He spoke frankly without changing his expression.

He didn't plan to reveal his relationship with Lim Nayeon right now, so as not to let this older sister overthink things. Anyway, Twice has a lot of schedules, and the two of them won't have a chance to meet anytime soon.

People can't always be honest; sometimes a white lie is necessary.

"Liar!" Kim Ji-won wrinkled her nose.

This guy is truly born to be a scumbag; he can lie without batting an eye, and no one can see through his act.

However... that's fine too. She'd rather be deceived. If one day she openly says she's too lazy to even deceive anymore, it means she's completely lost her appeal.

As I said before, if you get scumbaged every day, what's the difference between that and being loved every day?

Mingyan laughed: "Nuna, you saw through that."

"Hmph, everyone knows you treat your two best friends like precious treasures~"

Kim Ji-won spoke wittily, but there was also a hint of undisguised jealousy in her words.

It's important to know that it's not just Lim Nayeon who holds grudges; she also keeps track of the score between the two of them, since Kim Jisoo doesn't participate in such "battles without visible smoke."

“Ji-won nona, you’re mistaken about that.”

What did I say wrong?

“I don’t have two treasures, I have three.”

Kim Ji-won asked with a smile, "Who's the other one?"

“Min Zheng”.

"ah!"

She knew that this jerk's words weren't so simple, and the originally warm atmosphere was ruined.

The third treasure is clearly himself!
"Alright, alright, Noona, are we still going to eat hot pot?" Mingyan pressed his hand against the girl's forehead to block her attacks. "We still have important things to discuss."

"You actually have something serious to say?"

"Then don't talk about it."

Mingyan kept his head down, preparing ingredients, ignoring Kim Ji-won who awkwardly approached him.

He'd gone to great lengths for this older sister, and although there was a hint of compensation in his heart, his concern was undeniable. Kim Ji-won, feeling guilty, moved closer to the man and poked him a few times with her finger: "Are you unhappy?"

"No."

"So you're unhappy, huh? I know I was wrong~" Kim Ji-won seemed to enjoy coaxing Ming-yeon: "The serious matter you mentioned must be very important, so tell me quickly."

Being together means compromising with each other.

You comfort me, I comfort you, and when we argue, we give each other a way out. This is the way to maintain a long-term relationship.

"Do you really know that you are wrong?"

"real."

"What's wrong?"

"The mistake was...the mistake was misunderstanding you."

Kim Ji-won's mind worked quickly, and she immediately came up with a reason.

However, even if what she says sounds very fake, as long as the person involved is willing to believe it, that's fine.

"Bring up these two boxes of meat first. I'll prepare the broth, and then we can eat and talk." Mingyan instructed the girl, but Kim Ji-won couldn't put on airs like an older sister in front of her boyfriend.

Kim Ji-won nodded obediently: "Oh~"

They're still angry, so it's best to just listen obediently.

In the cold of November, when it's freezing outside, being able to enjoy a steaming hot pot at home is a wonderful thing, at least that's what Kim Ji-won thinks.

Of course, the people you eat hot pot with are also very important.

The girl sat at the dining table, leaning on her arm as she watched Mingyan busily putting meat into the pot.

No matter when, even though she is the older sister, it seems that she always explicitly takes care of herself more often, both in her career and family life.

"Noona, stop looking at it. I've prepared all your seasonings. Let's eat."

The man took a deep breath.

It smells so good! If this is the taste, I feel like something's missing if I don't eat hot pot in winter. It's so satisfying to eat big mouthfuls of lamb.

"Okay." Kim Ji-won's habit of eating hot pot was something Ming-yan had instilled in her, so he naturally knew her tastes very well. "By the way, what is the serious matter you wanted to talk about?"

"I've arranged a dinner party, why don't you come along?"

Mingyan picked up a piece of mutton with his chopsticks, coated it with thick sesame sauce, stuffed it into his mouth, and swallowed it with satisfaction.

Just one bite, and you're instantly filled with happiness.

"What kind of dinner party?" Kim Ji-won was no stranger to dinner parties. Her shy personality meant she inevitably had to attend some social events, most of which were dinner parties with film crews.

The man wiped his mouth and said, "The production company behind my recent drama has people from Studio Dragon and CJ headquarters. I think your drama also has people from those companies, which is perfect."

Are you going too?

"Of course, I also need to introduce you to some people, from CJ and TVN, they'll come in handy in the future."

"It's good that you're here too, then I'll go."

Kim Ji-won isn't very good at socializing, and her manager usually helps her in similar situations. Now that she has Mingyan, her boyfriend makes her feel more secure than her manager.

With this guy around, I'm unlikely to suffer any losses.

"Okay, I'll let you know when the time comes. It should be helpful for the new drama." Mingyan wasn't surprised by Kim Ji-won's reaction. She always listened to him, except for the time they broke up.

Kim Ji-won asked with a smile, "Did you arrange this dinner specifically for me?"

"Yes, that's because you're my treasure."

The man took the tissue the woman handed him; he was sweating from eating the hotpot.

Kim Ji-won was very happy.

She felt that her position in Mingyan's heart was already very close to that of Kim Jisoo and Lim Nayeon. This guy was soft-hearted and had a soft tongue. As long as she didn't back down, no one could separate them.

It's a bit rubbish, but as long as it works, that's fine.

"I still have some soju at home, would you like some?" Kim Ji-won licked her lips; she hadn't seen Myung-yeon for several days.

"No, I have to go back later."

"You still want to leave?"
