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

Chapter 340 The Show Begins (3000 words)
The two sat on the sofa, snuggling together, and watched TV for a while. When they realized it was time for dinner, Chen Yan looked at Taozi in his arms and asked:

"Peach, are you hungry? What do you want to eat for lunch?"

"I can do anything, oppa. You just need to do a little bit."

"Then I'll just make something simple for lunch and save my appetite for dinner."

"Mmmmm~"

Chen Yan smiled and released the girl from his arms, his right hand sliding out of his shirt as he got up and walked towards the kitchen.

Behind her, Choi Sulli's watery eyes, tinged with a hint of allure, gazed at her oppa's back. She wrinkled her cute little upturned nose, then smiled brightly.

She looked down to straighten her slightly wrinkled clothes, then looked up again to continue watching TV.

A pair of small feet tapped the ground happily, and she hummed a light melody. If Chen Yan were there, he would recognize it as the melody of "First Wisdom Tooth".

A few seconds later, as if she had thought of something, she paused in her movement of touching the ground with her little feet.

She put on her slippers, got up, walked to the middle of the living room and dining room, glanced at the kitchen where noises occasionally came from, and then turned and went into the bedroom.

A few minutes later, she came out again with a satisfied smile on her face, as if nothing had happened. She returned to the sofa, crossed her long legs, and continued watching TV.

Meanwhile, in a photography studio somewhere in Seoul.

Bae Suzy handed the gift box to Jung Soo-jung in front of her and said with a smile:

"Soojung, could you please pass this gift on to oppa for me?"

Of all the people she knows, only Jung Soo-jung will be attending Chen Yan's birthday party today.

Lee Ji-eun, that unnie, also didn't have time to go.

Besides, even if that unnie had time to go, I was still a little hesitant to hand the gift over to her.

What if my gift gets "lost" by that unnie on the way?

Lee Ji-eun: Slander!

She felt more at ease with Jung Soo-jung in front of her, their relationship was alright, and she wasn't a potential rival for her affections.

Across from her, Krystal Jung reached out and took the small gift box, glanced at it, and then smiled slightly at Suzy Bae.

"Yes, I'll pass it on to him for you, but the things inside aren't valuable, are they?"

Bae Suzy waved her hand: "It's not valuable. I can't give oppa any expensive gifts right now. It's not appropriate."

现在
Krystal Jung accurately captured the key words, her beautiful eyes narrowing slightly.

But she quickly pursed her lips again.

Forget it, I have no right to interfere in such matters. I'm just friends with that guy. It would be more appropriate for Sherry to do this.

After saying goodbye to Bae Suzy, Jung Soo-jung walked out of the photo studio with her gift.

After taking a few steps, he suddenly stopped, turned around to look at the trash can in front of him, and then at the gift box in his hand.

Bae Suzy: ? ? ?

Looking around at the deserted surroundings, the girl paused in front of the trash can for a few seconds before finally shaking her head slowly.

Forget it, there's no need to go to such lengths.

Besides, it should be Taeyeon unnie and Sulli who have a headache, what does it have to do with me?

Anyway, after today, I won't like that bastard anymore.

After putting away the gift box, Krystal Jung took a taxi directly back to her dorm in Cheongdam-dong.

We can't go to Chen Yan's house now; we have to wait.

Even if my own unnie doesn't go to Chen Yan's birthday party, the other unnies will.

Let's avoid it for now and go later. We need to minimize the risk of our unnie finding out about this.

There's only one Sunny unnie who will stay there. She's very easy to talk to; I'll just tell her and ask her to keep it a secret.

All of the above information comes from Choi Sulli.

A little peach: Hehe~
Two hours later, at Chen Yan's home.

The once quiet house suddenly became lively.

Because there are a few more bombs in the house.

Apart from Kim Hyoyeon, who couldn't make it due to a last-minute schedule change, Tiffany, Kwon Yuri, Lee Soon-kyu, Jessica Jung, Seohyun, and Choi Soo-young all attended.

The group were not strangers. After entering the house, they greeted Chen Yan warmly and then asked him to show them around.

Apart from Jessica Jung, Soon-kyu Lee, and Seohyun, it was the first time for everyone else to visit his home.

Chen Yan led a group of girls on a tour of his home like a tour group before they all sat down on the sofa in the living room.

The once spacious living room now felt cramped.

However, the group of young people were clearly not the type to care about such things, and they sat down and started chatting happily.

Then Chen Yan found himself surrounded by a group of beautiful women, who started gossiping about him and Kim Tae-yeon.

However, the gossipers were mainly Tiffany and her friends; Lee Soon-kyu, Jessica Jung, and Seohyun didn't get involved.

Seohyun blinked her big eyes and quietly ate her melon.

Jessica Jung was secretly observing Sulli, who was sitting on the other side with a constant smile on her face.

Hearing those people gossiping about Chen Yan and Kim Tae-yeon, he couldn't help but purse his lips.

Hmph! These people who know nothing should be gossiping about Chen Yan and Shirley right now.

This scumbag is lucky; Taeyeon and Yoona were both busy today, so he dared to call Sulli over directly.

As for Lee Soon-kyu, who was calmly peeling and eating an orange on the side, seemingly oblivious to everything around him...
Sunny knows everything!

These people are way out of date.

Surrounded by others, Chen Yan resisted their enthusiastic gossip, but the pleasant fragrance emanating from them gave him the illusion that he was in a land of women.

Watching Jinze being passed around in the arms of these people, being roughly handled and constantly looking at them for help, Chen Yan gave him a helpless look in return.

I'm helpless against these bombers; I'm already doing well just to protect myself.

Fortunately, their enthusiasm didn't last long. About an hour later, they left one after another because they all had other commitments.

All that remained were the birthday gifts they brought, proof that they had been there.

In the end, only Chen Yan, Jessica Jung, Sulli Choi, and Soon-kyu were left in the house.

Chen Yan glanced at the clock; it was already past 2:30.

He turned to the group and said, "We don't have much food left at home. I need to go to the supermarket to buy some so I can cook. You and Taozi can rest at home. I'll be back soon."

Sulli glanced furtively at the two unnies beside her: "Oppa, you can't carry all that by yourself, can you? Do you need help?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Jessica Jung and Soon-kyu Lee raised their hands at the same time: "Seo-yeon and I will go."

Chen Yan was taken aback upon seeing this, and was about to speak.

But then the two people looked at each other, and Lee Soon-kyu smiled, standing up as she said:
"I think I'll go with Xiaoyan. After all, we've posted photos together on social media, so even if we're recognized, we can explain it. But you're different, Xika."

She stopped there, but everyone present understood the sarcasm and implied meaning in her words.

"Hey! Lee Soon-kyu!" Jessica Jung blushed and called out somewhat angrily.

Just because you have a group photo doesn't mean you're so great. It's just a group photo, as if anyone can't do that.

When she finds the opportunity, she will definitely take some photos that show her close relationship with Chen Yan.

Lee Soon-kyu ignored her and looked directly at Chen Yan, saying, "Let's go, Xiao Yan, I'll go to the supermarket with you."

She had something she wanted to ask Chen Yan privately.

"okay."

Seeing that the older woman had already gotten up, Chen Yan didn't refuse anymore. He got up with her and walked towards the door.

But as he turned around, he glanced at Choi Sulli without leaving a trace.

Something's not right. Shouldn't Little Peach be eager to go with me at a time like this?

Noticing her oppa's gaze, Choi Sulli didn't say anything, but just smiled and winked at him a few times.

Watching her oppa and Sunny unnie's backs, a strange smile gradually appeared on the girl's lips.

Actually, this unnie is also on her shortlist.

It's a hidden item.

This unnie has a great figure, a great personality, and high emotional intelligence. If there are any conflicts or arguments at home in the future, this unnie will be a great mediator.

Sulli has already started thinking about who should mediate if Taeyeon and Yoona have a conflict in the future.

Protecting this family is her duty!
However, Sunny is on a higher level; she seems to be on the same level as Taeyeon and Yoona.

She's a little out of control.

So let's not use any tricks. Just like before, if there's a suitable opportunity, let her and oppa spend time alone together and let their relationship develop naturally.

As for whether it will develop that way, that's a matter of nature, and she won't interfere.

Beside her, Jessica Jung's cheeks were slightly puffed out, still somewhat irritated.

She had originally wanted to take the opportunity to spend more time alone with Chen Yan and get closer to him.

Unexpectedly, Lee Soon-kyu suddenly intervened, while Sulli, who was supposed to come out and argue with her, didn't react at all.

She glanced at the girl beside her, who still had a smile on her face.

It's fine if I don't go; it won't make a difference if I stay a little longer. I can stay and find out more about Sherry and see if I can find out anything.

"boom"

The door closed.

The room suddenly became quiet.

Jessica Jung and Sulli exchanged a glance, smiled in unison, and then looked away.

Jessica Jung was secretly thinking about how to get the girl to talk, since she and the girl weren't very familiar with each other before, and she needed to think before she spoke.

Sulli, on the other hand, didn't seem to have much of a thought on it.

She guessed that this unnie was probably starting to doubt her relationship with oppa, but it seemed that she was still in the doubting stage, and it seemed that Krystal hadn't told her about it.

As long as this unnie doesn't give her a cold shoulder, she's not intimidated.

And she also has a backup plan.

Pick up your phone, open Kakao, and tap on a profile picture.

With a light touch of the finger on the screen, a line of text is quickly typed.

【Krystal, the unnies have all left, come here.】

Click Send.

Then they sent Chen Yan's home address.

The message was sent and showed as read in the next second.

Krystal: Okay, I'm coming.

Upon seeing the reply, Choi Sulli smiled and silently put away her phone.

It shouldn't take Krystal more than ten minutes to get here from the dorm.

When she arrives, this place will be none of my business anymore, and I can relax and watch the show.

Looking up, he met Jessica Jung's gaze, and the two smiled at each other again.

Jessica Jung hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Sulli, did you arrive very early today?"

She still wasn't used to getting information out of people; she preferred to just ask whatever came to mind, as long as she was careful not to reveal that she knew about the relationship between the girl and Chen Yan.

Choi Sulli smiled and nodded: "Yeah, I came over here as soon as my schedule was over this morning, unnie. I figured I didn't have anything to do back at the dorm anyway, so I just came over to oppa's place and could also freeload lunch."

Jessica Jung went straight to the point: "Sulli, do you often come to Xiaoyan's house for dinner?"

"Um"

Choi Sulli pretended to hesitate and said, "It's not often, just a few times. After all, I usually have a schedule, and oppa also has work."

"Oh."

Jessica Jung nodded, then secretly pursed her lips.

Several times isn't that many; she only came here once for a housewarming banquet.

However, considering their relationship, she felt it was normal.

Jessica Jung muttered a few words to herself, but her smile remained unchanged: "It seems that you and Xiaoyan are really close, Sulli."

Choi Sulli blinked her bright eyes: "Oppa and I are indeed very close. Oppa is a very nice person."

Jessica Jung smiled and nodded, picked up the water glass in front of her and took a sip, but thought to herself, "This silly girl, she doesn't even know she's being kept like a fish in a pond by a scumbag."

The phone I was holding nearby vibrated.

Choi Sulli picked up her phone and glanced at it. Then she smiled brightly.

Krystal: [Image.jpg]

Soojung: Is this the building?

The girl quickly replied to the message: Yes, this is the building. Come up, Soojung.

The next second, she put away her phone and looked at Jessica Jung, saying, "Unnie, I'm going to the restroom."

She should step back for now; if things are really as she suspects, the real show is about to begin.

Jessica Jung didn't notice anything unusual and nodded, "Okay, go ahead."

Choi Sulli smiled slightly, got up and walked towards the bathroom.

Just seconds after she walked into the bathroom.

The doorbell rang.
