Peninsula: It’s just a dream, are you serious?

Chapter 173 Why are you still sabotaging me?
early morning.

Chen Yan walked into the JYP building in the morning light. After waiting for a while at the elevator, he and several employees entered the elevator together.

Just as the elevator doors were about to close, a voice suddenly rang out from outside: "Please wait a moment!"

The familiar scene and familiar voice made Chen Yan immediately reach out and press the open button, and the elevator door, which was about to close, slowly opened again.

A second later, two familiar figures appeared in his line of sight.

Sana Minato and Momo were also momentarily stunned when they saw Chen Yan in the elevator.

Chen Yan smiled at the two of them and said, "Come in quickly."

Sana Minatozaki snapped out of her daze, quickly pulled her friend along, bowed apologetically to Chen Yan and the other people in the elevator, and stepped into the elevator.

Are you going to class?

Because he was worried that the two girls' Korean was not yet fluent, Chen Yan slowed down his speech a little.

As he spoke, he reached out and pressed the button for the trainee floor.

Momo blinked her big eyes, her gaze full of wisdom. Sana Minatozaki understood and quickly nodded with a smile.

"Yes, Chen Yan oppa."

After pausing for a moment in addressing her, the girl quickly corrected herself.

She still remembered her older sister Lin Nalian's advice from yesterday: there was no harm in getting closer to Chen Yan.

Moreover, Sana Minatozaki originally had a pretty good impression of the person in front of her.

Come to think of it, she was the first person in the trainee group to know Chen Yan.

Momo next to me: Weren't we together back then?
Chen Yan smiled and nodded, glancing at the two girls' still slightly flushed cheeks.

"Are you going to be late for class?"

Upon hearing this, a hint of embarrassment flashed across Minatozaki Sana's face: "Yes, because I woke up a little late this morning."

The elevator doors then opened, and an employee was about to exit.

Sana Minatozaki pulled Momo closer to Chen Yan, and Momo suddenly stammered:
"We're going to be late because Sana took too long to leave."

Sana Minatozaki froze for a moment, then her face quickly turned red as she turned to her friend: "Hey, Momo-chan~"

Perhaps because she was in a hurry, the girl subconsciously used the Japanese from her hometown.

Why does Momo always undermine things the moment she opens her mouth?

Sana Minatozaki knew that she was indeed a bit slow in getting out of the house, and she also knew that it was a bad habit.

But how can I tell the truth in front of my newly acquainted older brother?!

Doesn't she have any pride?

Chen Yan raised an eyebrow slightly.

He can understand such simple spoken language.

It's true that Japanese is most authentic when spoken by Japanese girls.

Oh, and she has to be a pretty Japanese girl.

Momo looked at her friend, whose face had suddenly turned slightly red, and a hint of doubt flashed in her big eyes.

I wasn't telling the truth.

The elevator doors opened again on the trainee floor, and upon seeing this, Minatozaki Sana quickly pulled her friend and said goodbye to Chen Yan: "Goodbye, Chen Yan oppa."

"See you."

The elevator doors slowly closed, and the two girls' figures disappeared from Chen Yan's sight. He could still vaguely hear Minatozaki Sana's voice, which seemed to carry a lecturing tone.

Chen Yan smiled again; these girls were indeed quite interesting.

Arriving at the floor where the composer works, Chen Yan greeted the several colleagues who had arrived as usual, and then sat down at his workstation.

I turned on my computer, then got up and went to the tea room to get a glass of water.

Sitting back down at his workstation, Chen Yan opened the music production software, ready to continue working on the arrangement he hadn't finished yesterday.

Just then, the phone next to me suddenly beeped with a message notification.

He picked up his phone and saw a message from Lee Ji-eun. Lee Ji-eun: Oppa, are you free tonight? If you are, come give me a lesson. I'm free tonight.

Chen Yan thought about it and realized that he really didn't have anything planned for the evening.

Kim Tae-yeon's older sister is currently busy with her next comeback, and she goes to the company to train almost every night.

Although Peach is usually free in the evenings, she can't come to my place every night, otherwise people will get suspicious.

Yeah, that girl always uses Lee Ji-eun as a shield when she comes here.

The shield is already riddled with arrows; it'll probably be completely worn out after a few more hits.

Thinking of this, Chen Yan couldn't help but feel a little more sympathy for Lee Ji-eun on the other side of the screen.

He tapped his fingers lightly on the keyboard: Okay, I'm free tonight.

Lee Ji-eun: Okay, then let's meet at the company at 7:30 tonight, just like before.

Chen Yan replied with "OK," then put down his phone and quickly got back to work.

It was a little past seven in the evening, and there were still faint traces of white on the horizon.

Chen Yan drove to LOEN Company, got out of the car and walked to the company's main entrance.

The security guard at the gate recognized him immediately, gave him a polite smile, and then readily let him through.

Chen Yan smiled and returned the greeting, then walked into the building and took the elevator to the composition room floor.

He walked easily to the door of Lee Ji-eun's private practice room, entered the password, and opened the door.

Lee Ji-eun hadn't arrived yet, so Chen Yan walked into the room and glanced around.

There are definitely no major changes, after all, it's only been a little over ten days since his last visit.

As for the small
Chen Yan picked up one of the crumpled pieces of paper that had been tossed aside on the recording console, opened it, and took a look.

A few lyrics were crossed out with messy pen marks. Judging from the messiness of the marks and the wrinkles on the paper, one could easily imagine the owner's frustrated mood at the time.

"click"

Just then, the sound of the door opening came from the doorway.

Chen Yan turned his head, and Lee Ji-eun's petite figure walked in. Upon seeing him, she immediately greeted him with a smile: "Oppa, you're here~"

"Yeah, I just arrived a little while ago."

Lee Ji-eun walked over in a few quick steps, and after seeing the crumpled paper in Chen Yan's hand, she smiled sheepishly:
"Oh dear, I forgot to pack when I left a couple of days ago."

The girl was wearing a gray patterned short-sleeved T-shirt and loose dark blue jeans, and her face was covered in delicate makeup.

Her casual outfit accentuated her charming and adorable appearance.

But Chen Yan on the other side frowned slightly.

Seeing the weariness on Lee Ji-eun's face, which even her exquisite makeup couldn't hide, he asked with concern:

"Ji-eun, you look very tired. How about we skip the study session tonight and you go home and get some rest?"

Lee Ji-eun, who was tidying up the recording console, paused in her work and then pouted, "Because I've been so busy lately."

As she spoke, she turned to look at Chen Yan with a pitiful expression: "Oppa, I feel like I haven't learned enough. I haven't been able to write a single song lately."

Chen Yan was stunned for a moment upon hearing this. His eyes swept over the crumpled paper in the trash can next to him, and then he smiled helplessly and tapped Li Zhi'en on the head.

"Ouch, oppa, why did you hit me?"

"Because I think you're stupid."

"Mo?"

Upon hearing this, Lee Ji-eun's eyes widened slightly, and she looked at Chen Yan with a pitiful expression:

"Where am I stupid?"

"Please sit down first, and I'll talk to you properly after you sit down."

Chen Yan sat down in the chair first, and then gestured for Li Zhi'en to sit down as well.

Lee Ji-eun sat down opposite Chen Yan, placed her hands flat on her lap, blinked at Chen Yan, and looked like a well-behaved student listening attentively to a lecture.
