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

Chapter 390 Lee Soon-kyu: Jessica, hurry up and get on! Jung Soo-yeon: I'm on!
The following morning, at the Four Seasons Hotel on Hong Kong Island.

Patches of sunlight streamed into the room through the gaps in the curtains.

On the bed, Chen Yan slowly opened his eyes as he sensed the change in light.

After regaining consciousness, her slightly squinted eyes gradually opened, she yawned, turned over slightly, and reached for her phone on the bedside table.

When you turn on the screen, the time is displayed as 10:03.

Below the timeline are message pop-ups from Kim Tae-yeon and two others.

Chen Yan unlocked his phone and opened Kakao.

I thought the three of them were sending me a good morning greeting, but instead I found out they were sending me three identical messages.

[From now on, unless absolutely necessary, no suits are allowed!]

Some of the nonsensical words made the man more aware of his surroundings.

He frowned slightly and thought for a moment, then quickly figured out the key point.

It must have been Jessica Jung's older sister who sent them the photos taken last night.

With a soft chuckle, Chen Yan replied to each of them, agreeing to their requests.

He then put down his phone, slowly sat up on the bed, and stretched.

He had some trouble sleeping last night.

It's not for any other reason than the scenery that Jessica Jung's sister showed last night.

That fair and smooth back, and the faintly visible Eastern Hemisphere, were incredibly stimulating for this vigorous young man.

So last night, as soon as Chen Yan got back to his room, he took off his suit and went into the bathroom to take a shower.

After taking a shower and calming down, I walked out of the bathroom, lay down on the bed, and told Kim Tae-yeon and Im Yoon-ah what had happened that evening to reassure them.

Afterwards, I chatted with Peach for a while after she finished dancing and returned to the dormitory. Then I said goodnight and closed my eyes to go to sleep.

But as soon as he closed his eyes, the scene he had just seen in Jessica Jung's room reappeared before him, causing him to suffer from insomnia, which was unusual for him.

I tossed and turned in bed for what seemed like an eternity, until I was exhausted. Finally, I managed to suppress the renewed heat rising within me and drifted off to sleep.

Chen Yan turned to look at the faintly lit sky outside the window, then looked down at his phone.

I wonder if Jessica Jung's older sister has woken up yet.

However, he didn't rush to message Jessica Jung. He decided to take a shower first, as waking up sticky and uncomfortable was too uncomfortable.

I called the hotel's private butler and had them send up a change of clothes, including underwear.

He came in a hurry yesterday and didn't bring a change of clothes.

After the items were delivered, Chen Yan turned and went into the bathroom.

Meanwhile, in the room opposite, Jessica Jung, who had been awake for a while, was lying in bed scrolling through her phone.

After brushing for a while, she looked up and glanced in the direction of the door.

"I wonder if Xiaoyan is awake yet."

He muttered something to himself, glanced at the time 10:21 in the upper left corner of his phone, thought for a moment, and decided to wait a while before sending a message to Chen Yan.

The reason is simple: she usually sleeps until at least 11 o'clock when she rests, so she'd better wait a little longer.

"Adu"

Suddenly, my phone beeped with a message notification.

Looking down, I saw it was Lee Soon-kyu.

Sun-kyu: Jessica Jung, remember to bring me back a gift from Hong Kong Island!

Jessica Jung rolled her eyes dramatically: No way.

Sun-kyu: If you don't bring it for me, then you must like Xiao Yan.

Jessica Jung's cheeks puffed out slightly instantly.

This familiar phrase has appeared frequently in their chat history and daily life these past few days.

For example, on the way to the company for practice, Lee Soon-kyu used this phrase to ask him to bring her breakfast, and when they took turns showering in the dormitory at night, he also used this phrase to ask her to switch showering times.

Looking at that sentence, Jessica Jung couldn't help but recall the scenes from last night. Finally, she raised her right hand and looked at it, as if she could still feel the warmth of being enveloped by that large hand.

A bright smile appeared on her lips, she glanced down at the message again, and let out a soft hum.

Hmm~ That phrase doesn't apply to me anymore.

Regaining her languid demeanor, Jessica Jung replied with those same two words: "No."

Sun-kyu: So you're admitting you like romance novels.

Her eyes flickered for a moment, but the smile on her face remained. Jessica Jung typed three words with natural and fluid movements.

[Yeah, I like it.]

At that moment, Lee Soon-kyu, who was lying on her bed in the dormitory, saw Jessica Jung's reply of just three words. She raised her eyebrows slightly, but showed no further surprise.

She had already guessed this outcome when she saw those photos last night, and now she was just sending messages to test the waters and try to get a definite answer.

Just as she expected, Jessica Jung, being the kind of person who doesn't hide her feelings once she's clear about them, gave a direct and affirmative answer.

With a smile on her face, Lee Soon-kyu glanced at the empty bed next to Kim Tae-yeon and tapped her phone screen lightly.

Sun-kyu: So, you're planning to join?

Jessica Jung pursed her lips slightly and replied with a single word: "Mm."

Now that you know you like it, the next step is whether or not to continue.

She had already thought about this problem last night.

After carefully considering her observations of Taeyeon, Yoona, and Sulli over the past period, as well as the things Taeyeon and Yoona had said to her, she finally made a decision.

Didn't you say you were living a good and happy life?

Girls' Generation didn't lie to Girls' Generation, I believe it!

Since there are already three, it's not unreasonable to add me one, right?

Besides, we're all from Girls' Generation, so there's no reason why Taeyeon can accept Yoona but not me.

What's more, there's also Sulli from f(x) at home.

There are already three of us, there's no reason why having me as an extra person shouldn't make us unhappy.

Besides, if you join and find it's not that great, you can just quit.

Thinking of this, Jessica Jung turned her head and pouted as she looked towards the door.

At worst, I can just treat it as a short-term relationship with Chen Yan that ended in a breakup. That way, my feelings for him will have a resolution.

"Adu"

The message notification sounded again, pulling her out of her thoughts.

Sunkyu: You'd better hurry up, Taeyeon and Yoona have already started to suspect that you have ulterior motives.

On the hotel bed, Jessica Jung suddenly sat up, her two arched eyebrows slightly furrowed.

Are you starting to have doubts? When did you expose yourself?

Even she herself only figured it out last night.

As if guessing what she was thinking, another message popped up in the chat box.

Sunkyu: The photos you posted last night already made Taeyeon and Yoona a little suspicious. Suddenly posting photos without even explaining them, anyone would think too much.

photo? !
Jessica Jung was taken aback.

She quickly realized what was happening and rubbed her forehead, feeling a bit of a headache.

Ah, last night she was just thinking about showing off, she didn't think that much about it.

After frowning and pondering for a moment, Jessica Jung slowly raised her head and looked towards the doorway.

In that case, we'll just have to speed it up.

It's easy for a woman to pursue a man, especially when the man she's pursuing is a jerk.

I'm just as good as Taeyeon and Yoona, okay?

They're not even as big as me combined. There's no reason for me to fail.

A new message popped up in the chat box at this point.

Sun-kyu: My suggestion is that you take the initiative and finish this quickly.

Upon seeing the message, Jessica Jung smiled knowingly.

That's what I think too.

"Oh~"

On her bed in the dorm, Lee Soon-kyu let out a small gasp as she read Jessica Jung's reply.

"As expected of Zheng Xika, this straightforward style is something else. Hehe, this is going to be interesting."

In the hotel bed, after replying to the messages, Jessica Jung put down her phone, got out of bed, and went into the bathroom.

The real plan to catch a scumbag is in action!

Nearly half an hour later.

Chen Yan took a comfortable shower and washed up.

After changing his clothes, he picked up his phone from the bed and was about to send a message to Jessica Jung when he discovered that she had already sent him a message a few minutes earlier, asking if he was awake yet.

Tap the screen and reply to the message: I've already woken up and am just washing up.

The message was immediately marked as read, and Jessica Jung's reply popped up: Open the door for me.

Chen Yan paused for a moment, then turned and walked towards the door.

As soon as the door opened, the door to the room opposite opened at almost the same time.

Upon seeing him, Jessica Jung's face, though lightly made up, immediately lit up with a smile, revealing her exquisite beauty.

Good morning, Xiaoyan. Did you sleep well last night?

As she spoke, she strode directly into Chen Yan's room with remarkable ease.

Behind him, Chen Yan looked at Jessica Jung's outfit of a black T-shirt and jeans, blinked, and then turned around and closed the door.

If this woman suddenly takes off her clothes again like she did last night, I'll definitely teach her a lesson about how scumbag men can be.

Do you even know what a scumbag is?

"That's great, how about you, Nuna?"

Although he had a little trouble sleeping last night because of the stimulation brought by this older sister, he definitely couldn't let Jessica Jung know about it.

"I slept very well."

Jessica Jung sat down on the sofa in the living room, her beautiful eyes looking at Chen Yan who was walking over. Suddenly, she frowned, her tone carrying a hint of disappointment.

Why aren't you wearing the suit you wore yesterday?

Chen Yan was stunned for a moment upon hearing this. He looked down at his casual outfit of a white T-shirt and blue jeans, and then smiled helplessly after realizing what he meant.

"Nuna, you wore a suit yesterday because you were going to a cocktail party. Why would you wear a suit in private?"

He doesn't really like wearing suits; even though they're fitted, they're a bit too tight, and that doesn't feel good.

In contrast, he still prefers loose-fitting casual clothes.

Speaking of suits, Chen Yan also remembered the messages he had just seen.

"Noona, did you send the photos you took of me last night to Taeyeon and Noona?"

Upon hearing this, Jessica Jung's eyes flickered, and she nodded with a smile.

"Yes, when I took the photos for you, I told them I would send them to them. Did they say anything?"

Chen Yan sat down opposite Jessica Jung: "They told me that I'm not allowed to wear suits unless absolutely necessary."

"Hahahaha"

Jessica Jung immediately burst into laughter, but as she laughed, her smile gradually faded, and she looked at Chen Yan with a somewhat serious expression.

“That’s right, Taeyeon and the others are right, Xiaoyan, you really should wear fewer suits.”

The man's unique charisma in a suit was so captivating that she herself was, in a way, one of the "victims."

So we have to keep things under control, otherwise who knows how many more people will join our family in the future.

Seeing the older sister's sudden change in expression, Chen Yan felt a little strange, but he still nodded obediently.

Seeing this, Jessica Jung smiled and then asked, "What are we having for lunch, Xiaoyan? I'm a little hungry."

On the other side, Chen Yan was taken aback again.

It wasn't because there was anything wrong with what Jessica Jung said, but because when she said the second half of her sentence, she suddenly pouted, raised her eyebrows, and her tone became a bit coquettish.

That pretty face, which was originally somewhat aloof, suddenly revealed a charming cuteness because of those two little expressions.

It's like a aloof cat suddenly starting to act cute and affectionate towards you; it's kind of irresistible.

This sudden yet impactful change left him momentarily stunned as he faced it.

Across from her, after seeing the man's stunned expression, a hint of a smile flashed in Jessica Jung's beautiful eyes.

Hmph, I refuse to believe I can't win you over.

Quickly regaining his composure, Chen Yan replied, "Oh, it's up to you, Nuna. I'm fine with anything. There's a restaurant in the hotel, and we can order food and have the butler bring it up. If you don't want to eat at the hotel, we can go out to eat."

Jessica Jung thought for a moment and said, "Let's eat in the room. If we go to a restaurant or outside, we might be recognized, and we might not have enough time."

She was going back to the Peninsula that afternoon. Girls' Generation's popularity was at its peak, and the company couldn't let her stay on Hong Kong Island for an extended period.

"Okay, I'll call and order now."

"Good~"

The service at the Four Seasons Hotel was excellent; the food was delivered in less than half an hour after the two of us ordered.

The two sat facing each other in the dining room of the room, chatting about everyday topics while eating, and the atmosphere of the meal was very harmonious.

However, as Chen Yan looked at the ice princess across from him who was covering her mouth and laughing, he couldn't help but feel uneasy.

Why does this older sister seem so much warmer than before? Is it because of Kwon Ning-il?
Nearly half an hour later, after the two finished their meal, Chen Yan took out his phone and asked, "Nuna, what time is your flight back?"

Jessica Jung took a tissue and wiped her mouth: "The flight is at 3:45."

"Okay, then I'll go back with you. Luckily, there are still business class tickets available on this flight."

"Good~"

Jessica Jung smiled and narrowed her eyes: "It just so happens that I'm also in business class."

Chen Yan nodded and quickly bought the plane tickets.

The two stayed in the room for a while until Jessica Jung's manager called. Then they took their things and went downstairs to meet the manager.

“Chen PDnim”.

When Jessica Jung's manager saw Chen Yan, she immediately smiled and bowed, a glint of light flashing in her slightly narrowed eyes.

He's already heard about what happened last night from his own artists, so it seems this PD Chen is no ordinary person.

It's very difficult to get into that party without a certain level of status, which is why the company was willing to let Jessica Jung attend.

I need to report this to my superiors when I get back.

Chen Yan smiled and returned the greeting. Then the group went to the underground parking garage, got into the rented van, and drove towards the airport.

More than half an hour later, the nanny van arrived at Hong Kong Island Airport.

Since it was a private trip, there were no fans seeing them off at the airport. The group checked in smoothly through the VIP check-in channel and then entered the VIP waiting room.

There weren't many people in the waiting room. Chen Yan and Zheng Xiuyan glanced around as usual and then found an empty seat to sit down.

Unbeknownst to the two, a figure wearing sunglasses had been watching them intently ever since they entered, not far to their right.

To be precise, it fell on Jessica Jung.

Looking at Jessica Jung, the figure's brows gradually furrowed.

A few seconds later, he stood up, walked over to her, and stood in front of Jessica Jung.
