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

Chapter 203 The Zheng Sisters Discuss Taiyun

"Ok?"

Chen Yan looked at Cui Minhe with a puzzled expression, not understanding what he meant.

"I heard it from a staff member close to Miss A a couple of days ago."

Choi Minhyuk leaned closer to Chen Yan and lowered his voice: "It's said that there seems to be some conflict within Miss A recently, and Suzy's relationship with the other members is a bit strained."

Chen Yan frowned: "Why?"

Judging from his two meals with Bae Suzy, although they didn't have a deep conversation, he felt that the girl didn't seem like the type to easily get into conflicts with others.

Choi Minhyuk shrugged: "I don't know the specifics, but it's probably because Suzy's popularity soared after starring in 'Architecture 101,' causing problems with resource allocation within the group."

The two returned to their workstations and sat down. Chen Yan glanced at the direction of the elevator again and suddenly remembered what Bae Suzy had said during their last meal.

"Sometimes being popular isn't necessarily a good thing."

Oh, I see.

But he didn't think about it any further, treating it as just something he'd heard about.

In Miss A, he only knew Bae Suzy, and their relationship could only be considered as friends.

Moreover, this is a problem that Park Jin-young should be concerned about; why should a songwriter like him worry about it?

Chen Yan shook his head slightly, picked up his phone, and thought he would take advantage of his lunch break to chat with Kim Tae-yeon and Choi Sulli.

However, after the message was sent, both of them seemed to be busy and did not read it.

Seeing this, Chen Yan didn't send any more messages.

Similar situations have occurred before.

It's normal for couples, especially popular celebrities, to have conflicting schedules.

Even if you have two girlfriends, this situation cannot be avoided.

He held his phone for a moment, then found another profile picture and clicked on it.

I simply sent three words: What are you doing?
Chen Yan didn't think there was anything wrong with his casual tone, after all, the other person had used the same casual tone when chatting with him before.

Meanwhile, on the other side of Seoul, inside a detached villa in a villa district.

While eating and scrolling through her phone, Krystal Jung saw a message pop-up, and her previously calm face instantly showed a slight ripple.

Damn it: What are you doing?

Krystal pursed her lips, just then a voice came from the other end: "What's wrong?"

The girl snapped out of her daze, glanced at her unnie sitting opposite her, and quickly made up an excuse:

"It's nothing, my manager just sent me the detailed schedule for the next few days, and I'm looking at it now."

"Oh."

Jessica Jung didn't suspect anything, put a bite of pasta in her mouth, and then held out her hand: "Let me see."

"ah!"

Jung Soo-jung slapped her hand away in annoyance and pouted, "How old am I? Jung Soo-yeon, can you stop acting like you did when you were little and trying to look at my phone?"

"Hmm~ No matter how old you are, you're still a little kid."

Jessica muttered something, but withdrew her hand and didn't mention looking at the phone again.

The girl gave her unnie a reproachful look, then turned her attention back to the messages on her phone.

She tried her best to control her expression and not show anything unusual. After thinking for a moment, she clicked on Chen Yan's profile picture and replied to a message.

Krystal Jung: I'm having dinner, and a brand event is about to start.

Chen Yan replied quickly: Oh, then you eat first, we'll chat again when you have time. Jung Soo-jung secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Knowing that he would use this excuse, Chen Yan would stop talking to him.

However, upon seeing the message "What are you doing?" sent by the other party, she suddenly realized something, and the girl almost lost control of her expression.

Damn, look at this message. I didn't notice before. Does this guy think I'm a brother?

A simple "What are you doing?" sounds like the tone you'd use when chatting with a buddy.

Has she managed to make Chen Yan treat her like a brother over the past few months?
Krystal clenched her fists tightly under the table, and couldn't help but recall how she had cried alone in her room the night before last.

Damn it, what's so great about a guy who treats girls who like him like brothers? I haven't even blocked or deleted him yet.

Wait, why didn't I delete Chen Yan from my friends list the night before last?

Oh, it's because I didn't have a good reason to explain why I deleted him.

This isn't something that can be solved simply by deleting it.

Chen Yan's circle of friends overlapped with his own. Not to mention anything else, the other party could directly ask him through Cui Xueli why he deleted him.

But she couldn't directly admit that she had a crush on him, so she deleted him after realizing she had lost him.

She absolutely couldn't let Chen Yan know that she had a crush on him; otherwise, how would she be any different from a clown!
So after much deliberation, Krystal Jung decided to keep Chen Yan's friend.

There's nothing wrong with doing this. As long as she doesn't take the initiative to chat with him, Chen Yan will mostly remain quietly in her friend list.

She was a great ex.

Chen Yan: So I'm an ex now?

Seeing the nickname "jerk" she had given the other person a while ago at the top of the screen, Krystal pouted and turned off her phone, putting it aside.

What's there to change? He's been a bastard all along!
She picked up her fork and continued eating her pasta, glancing at her unnie as she chewed.

But I noticed she was frowning, as if she was thinking about something.

"What's wrong, unnie? Is something the matter?"

"Oh, nothing, I was just thinking about Taeyeon and Yoona."

"Taeyeon unnie and Yoona unnie? What happened to them?"

Upon hearing this, Krystal Jung immediately asked curiously.

Listening to gossip can help a heartbroken person recover their mood, especially when one of the parties involved is Taeyeon, their love rival.

This made her even more interested.

"It's nothing, it's just that Taeyeon and Yoona seem to have had a fight."

"You had a fight? What happened?"

"That's the strange thing. Nobody heard them argue at all. It just started one day that they stopped talking to each other."

Jessica Jung recalled the events of the past few days, frowning as she said, "Nobody knows what the reason is. When we asked them privately, they wouldn't say what the reason was, as if they had planned it all along."

Krystal Jung frowned as well: "Is the situation serious?"

"That's strange. Although the two of them don't talk much in private, they act normally when they're on a schedule together. When Taeyeon, as the leader, arranges things, Yoona listens."

"The two of them didn't seem to have had a big fight and become estranged; it was more like they were just holding a grudge, like..."

Jessica Jung summarized, "It's like two little kids who both like a toy and don't want to give it to each other, so they keep arguing."

Krystal nodded thoughtfully: "Then maybe it will get better after a while."

"Well, I hope so."
