Peninsula: The Best Actor Begins with a Breakup

Chapter 559 I got an upset stomach.

Mingyan said he spent three days in Guangdong.

Such a short time is actually not enough; he can only visit a few places in a whirlwind. However, he has to return to Seoul to participate in the itinerary.

Not having acting roles doesn't mean someone is truly unemployed.

"Xiao Yan, are you doing anything legitimate in China?"

Zheng Yuanlong made a special trip to the airport to pick up Mingyan, and he was shocked when he saw his artist.

That complexion doesn't look right.

"Of course, Brother Yuanlong, do you know about raw marinating?" After getting into the car, Mingyan leaned back in his seat and let out a long sigh, his voice still carrying an unconcealable weakness.

Zheng Yuanlong shook his head: "I don't know."

"Raw marinade is a specialty food of the Chaoshan region of China. It mainly involves marinating the freshest ingredients and eating them directly."

Mingyan explained to his agent.

"Sounds good, isn't it similar to eating octopus in Korea?"

"To be honest, it tastes better than in Korea."

"then you……"

"I was a bit greedy and ate too much. I still had diarrhea when I boarded the plane." Mingyan rubbed his temples, regretting that he hadn't listened to the shopkeeper's advice and ordered several kinds of food when he heard they were specialties.

Crabs, whelks, blood clams, mantis shrimp, and more filled half the table.

Even the locals wouldn't dare eat like that; it's clearly a case of a newborn calf not being afraid of a tiger.

As a result, after he finished eating and went back, he started having diarrhea in the middle of the night and had to force himself to get back to Seoul.

"you really……"

"To be honest, it really is delicious. I'll have to try it again if I have the chance."

Mingyan plans to take Kim Minjung with him next time, so that his niece can experience the food and scenery of her mother's and uncle's homeland.

"Let's not talk about whether it tastes good or not. You need to hurry up and make sure it doesn't interfere with tomorrow's commercial shoot." Zheng Yuanlong was very worried about Mingyan's condition.

Mingyan thought for a moment and said, "Brother Yuanlong, why don't you take me to the hospital for an IV drip?"

His health isn't bad, but he can't resist food poisoning—it's an internal attack, and there's no way to prevent it.

As an artist, it's an obligation to present a good image when you're working, since people are putting a lot of money into your account.

"Ok."

It's not uncommon for celebrities to visit hospitals.

Actors are okay, but idols, due to long-term dieting, sometimes even need intravenous nutrition to maintain normal bodily functions.

Koreans are really scary. In order to achieve a perfect appearance, they don't eat properly and would rather take handfuls of nutritional supplements or go to the hospital for IV drips, or even have surgery on their faces.

Mingyan was taken to the hospital by Zheng Yuanlong for a simple check-up.

The problem wasn't serious; the doctor examined it and immediately started an IV drip.

Zheng Yuanlong naturally stayed to accompany him, as an agent is responsible for every aspect of an artist's life.

Mingyan was bored and stared at the IV drip for a long time before realizing what was happening and took a picture of his hand with the needle attached. He then sent the picture to a group chat.

This is the time to enjoy the care and concern from your girlfriends.

"Oh my god, what are you doing at the hospital?" The first video to arrive was from Lim Nayeon, and Rabbit Tooth was startled when he saw the photo.

Mingyan smiled and said, "I had an upset stomach. I didn't need to come to the hospital, but I have a schedule tomorrow."

"You're such a grown-up, how could you still get an upset stomach?"

Lim Nayeon's face was full of worry, and her tone carried three parts resentment and seven parts concern.

"Sigh, let's talk about it in detail when you get back. I need comforting right now." Zheng Yuanlong had already slipped away; he had no interest in hearing how Mingyan talked about love.

"Waaah~ My dear, you've really worked so hard, having to get an IV drip at the hospital so late."

"So fake."

"Okay, then let's give each other a kiss."

Lim Nayeon really enjoys this sweet and affectionate feeling, that's what dating is all about.

Mingyan said with a regretful look, "Nayeon, I wish you were here with me."

"As soon as I have some free time, I'll rush to see you." Rabbit Teeth said helplessly, "Take good care of yourself while I'm gone."

"When are you free?" "It might be a few more days." Even if Lim Nayeon is in Seoul, she may not have the time or ability to come out and see Mingyan.

Artists are subject to too many restrictions; they have virtually no freedom.

"Nayeon, don't worry, I should be fine after I get an IV drip."

Mingyan quickly comforted his girlfriend to prevent Rabbit Teeth from worrying too much; he just had diarrhea.

"That would be best. If I'm not around... you can call Jisoo, but you can't call that woman." Lim Nayeon threatened her boyfriend fiercely.

Kim Ji-won is a master at taking advantage of weaknesses.

"Yes, yes, as you command."

Mingyan did want to invite Kim Jisoo over, but she didn't have time. BLAKPINK's recent schedule has been as busy as TWICE's.

She seemed rather calm about receiving the photos of the IV drip; she was more interested in the raw marinated food her friend mentioned, since food that causes diarrhea must be delicious.

The two agreed to go out for a meal together sometime.

Jisoo casually asked Mingyan if the IV drip hurt before hanging up.

Kim Ji-won was the slowest to reply, using the same video, expressing the same concerns, and mentioning Lim Na-yeon in the same way.

Although the two girls have different personalities, they are like two sides of the same coin when it comes to handling many things.

Mingyan said that the IV drip took more than two hours, and he didn't get home until evening: "Minjung, Minjung."

He didn't tell his niece about his illness, so the little one wouldn't worry unnecessarily. To be honest, it was just diarrhea. Telling his girlfriend and telling a younger generation are two different things.

"Uncle, you're back!" Kim Minjung exclaimed in surprise as he walked out of the room.

The girl was a little scared living alone in her spacious new home.

She also wanted to travel to China with Mingyan, but she couldn't leave because of school and practice, so she could only stay at home all alone.

The man patted Kim Minjung's head: "Hmm, how are you doing at home by yourself?"

"It's good, but I'm a little scared."

"What are you afraid of?"

"The new house is so big! I'm even a little afraid to leave my room at night," Kim Minjung exclaimed. "Uncle, with such a big house, you really need to have more people in the family."

It feels spacious enough for two people, but it might not be too much for five.

"Then I'll find more people to come back and live with you in the future."

"Could they all be my aunts-in-law?"

"...Come and see your gift."

……

The intravenous infusion was indeed very effective.

Ming said he went to the event the next day in high spirits.

For actors' fans, life can be quite dull when there are no new projects being released. Most actors are practically invisible when they're not filming.

"Oppa, oppa, when are you going to open your own Instagram account?"

A very cute little girl was holding up her phone and chasing after Mingyan, asking him questions.

"I'll consider it, but it depends on the company's arrangements." Mingyan smiled politely; his popularity among male actors of his generation was already considered top-tier.

"We are all waiting for you, and we will always support you."

"Thank you."

The man hadn't really thought about this before, but it seemed like he could consider opening a personal social media account. That would make it easier to do some commercial promotion. He'd discuss it with Zheng Yuanlong later.

After finishing his trip, Mingyan attended a drinking party hosted by the brand, which lasted until late at night.

Zheng Yuanlong started the van: "Let me take you home."

"No need, Brother Yuanlong, just take me to the gym."

He clearly stated that he wanted to get some exercise and get rid of the smell of alcohol on him, as a good figure requires exercise to maintain.

However, he had just changed his clothes when he ran into an acquaintance.

"Oppa, you're here too."
