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

Chapter 174 Lee IU draws her knife and starts slashing.

Seeing this, Chen Yan smiled and immediately asked the girl a question:
"Ji-eun, how long have you been studying composition?"

Lee Ji-eun thought for a moment, then suddenly scratched her head and smiled: "I don't remember either, because I only did it in short bursts when my schedule wasn't too busy."

"So, you definitely didn't spend as much time studying as I did in four years of university, right?"

Lee Ji-eun blinked, then suddenly lowered her eyes slightly, as if she understood what Chen Yan wanted to say.

"Was I too hasty, oppa?"

Chen Yan nodded; Li Zhi'en was indeed too anxious.

As she herself said, her schedule is already busy enough, and she only studies composition in these fragmented moments, so her learning efficiency is definitely not as good as when she studies at school.

To be honest, Chen Yan felt that Li Zhi'en had learned quite quickly, which fully demonstrated the girl's talent in composing.

But people have their limits; you can't get fat in one bite.

Lee Ji-eun looked thoughtful and murmured, "I just want to try to become a better person."

"You still need to take care of yourself and get some rest. You need to balance work and rest, you know? Otherwise your body will definitely break down first."

Chen Yan looked at the girl's exhausted expression:

"Judging from your posture, anyone who didn't know better would think you were planning to retire from the entertainment industry after these two years of work."

Upon hearing this, Lee Ji-eun, who had been feeling a bit down, suddenly burst out laughing.

Then she couldn't help but raise her hand and pat Chen Yan: "Oppa, don't exaggerate like that, okay? When did I ever say I was planning to retire from the entertainment industry in two years? I'm going to be active for many more years, okay?"

Chen Yan shrugged: "Then don't push yourself so hard."

He glanced at the crumpled papers in the trash can: "Jie-eun, if you can't write anything, forcing yourself to write is worse than not writing at all. Forcing yourself to write will actually kill your creative desire."

Lee Ji-eun lay on the recording console, her fingers constantly drawing circles, her little face full of sorrow.

But she knew Chen Yan was right; the crumpled pieces of paper that had been overflowing from the trash can in the past two days were the best proof.

"I understand, oppa, I won't write anymore."

Suddenly, she remembered something and turned to Chen Yan: "By the way, oppa, has Peach been very busy lately?"

Chen Yan paused slightly, recalling what Cui Xueli had told him a couple of days ago about Lee Ji-eun asking to meet her several times. He subtly avoided the girl's gaze and unconsciously flipped through the lyric sheet in front of him:
"Peach is indeed quite busy. What's wrong? Do you need to see her for something?"

"It's nothing, haha."

Lee Ji-eun's eyes darted around for a moment: "I've been quite busy lately, but I've also been under a lot of pressure, so I thought I'd chat with Peach."

She couldn't very well say that she had doubts about the fact that this oppa and Momo suddenly got together and wanted to meet up to find out the truth, could she?

However, what the girl didn't know was that the little peach had already seen through her little scheme.

Choi Sulli: That's right! I told oppa!
Chen Yan continued flipping through the lyric sheet casually: "Oh, I see. She should be free after she finishes these few days. You can ask her again."

The man sighed silently to himself.

Who knows how this girl will react when she finds out she cheated on her best friend.

An image inexplicably surfaced in his mind:
One day later, he came to teach Lee Ji-eun a class. After entering the room, Lee Ji-eun looked at him expressionlessly, then suddenly sneered, pulled out a long knife that was longer than her own height from behind her back, and chased after him to slash.

hiss.

Mr. Chen couldn't help but shudder.

It seems I won't be able to continue being a teacher for a while.

Lee Ji-eun smiled and said, "We'll see. By the time she's free, I might not be either. Our schedules have to match." Although the peninsula isn't big, it's not easy for two popular celebrities to find time to meet.

The two, each with their own thoughts, exchanged a glance and smiled unconsciously before looking away again.

I can't let this oppa/Ji-eun know what I'm thinking right now.

With the idea of ​​changing the subject, Lee Ji-eun suddenly thought of another topic and her eyes lit up: "Oppa, tell me about you and Taozi."

This oppa is telling me to rest, so I definitely won't study tonight. It's a good time to chat and relax.

Especially when it comes to talking about these kinds of emotional gossips, it's the best way to relax and see how the relationship between this oppa and my best friend is really going.

Kill two birds with one stone.

The girl couldn't help but give herself a thumbs up for her cleverness.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yan smiled; this was a topic worth discussing.

Although he has inexplicably embarked on the path of a scumbag, his relationship with Taozi is genuine, and they have many memories together.

So the man sat down opposite the girl and started chatting.

Chen Yan was speaking, and Li Zhi'en was listening intently, her almond-shaped eyes sparkling.

It was only on the night the man heard about the meteor shower that had recently occurred that he got up in the early hours of the morning to take a video of the meteor shower for his best friend to watch.

The girl suddenly frowned in confusion: "Oppa, why did you film a video for Taozi at midnight? Why didn't you ask Taozi to watch it at home with you?"

"Forehead"

Chen was momentarily speechless, then blurted out, "Because Taozi had a schedule that night, and it didn't end until after 11 p.m., so it wasn't convenient for her to come over."

Well, he wasn't exactly lying, since that's exactly what Peach told him that day.

It's better than saying that you cuddled with Kim Tae-yeon and slept for a while that day.

Lee Ji-eun nodded in realization. That made sense.

Celebrities don't really have much freedom in their private lives. It's so late, it's really inconvenient for their best friends to come over.

And what if the oppa eats the peach in one bite if we go there that late?
"hehe."

Chen Yan smiled somewhat awkwardly and then made an excuse to change the subject: "I'm going to the restroom."

His mindset hadn't completely changed; he was still subconsciously a little uneasy and nervous.

"okay."

Watching her oppa get up and leave the recording studio, Lee Ji-eun turned around and lay back on the recording table, listlessly drawing circles with her finger.

It seems that oppa and Momo really have a good relationship.

Although the two getting together seemed a bit sudden to her, she could genuinely feel her best friend's happiness during this time.

She even felt a little envious of what Chen Yan had just said.

Things like taking care of a drunk peach, taking a walk together under the moonlight, sitting on a chair together to admire the moon and stars and chat, etc.
Lost in thought, Lee Ji-eun's pupils gradually dilated, and her finger movements in circles slowed down.

After washing his hands, Chen Yan grabbed a tissue from the sink, wiped them, threw the tissue in the trash can, and walked back.

He opened the door to the recording studio, walked in, and returned to the recording console. He was slightly taken aback by what he saw.

On the recording console, the girl was fast asleep, lying on it.
