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

Chapter 451 Bae Suzy and Park Jin-young, I choose.
On the other side of Seoul, at home in Seongnam-gu.

Krystal Jung lay on her bed in her bedroom, puffing out her cheeks as she stared at her phone screen, looking furious.

Ahhh! ! !
That bastard is flirting with other women again! And he's even planning to create a scandal with me in a few days!
They even came to ask her if that jerk had a girlfriend.

How is this any different from a reserve player yelling at a substitute player?
You scumbag! You scumbag! You scumbag!
After taking a few heavy breaths, Krystal Jung's slender fingers began tapping on her phone screen.

I'll ruin it for you!

There are already four women in the family (not counting Jessica Jung), and that bastard still went and provoked Suzy.

What, you want to collect all seven Dragon Balls, so you can have a different one every day of the week, right?

With this in mind, she later sent two messages to Bae Soo-ji, telling her to stay away from that bastard Chen Yan, that he was no good person.

"Adu"

The message notification sounded again, and Bae Suzy's reply popped up in the chat box.

Suzy: But I feel like oppa is a good person.

Krystal Jung pouted and frowned.

That bastard is flawless except for being a womanizer, but that's precisely his biggest flaw.

It's easy for her to attract unwanted attention outside! Suzy is a perfect example.

But if you were to directly call him a scumbag, he's different from other scumbags. He's a scumbag openly and honestly, and he's also genuinely responsible.

If she were to tell Xiuzhi directly that Chen Yan is a scumbag, what if Xiuzhi misunderstands him as the kind of scumbag in the general sense?

But if you want to explain why Chen Yan is different from other scumbags, you definitely need to give some specific examples, and it's not good to talk about family matters with outsiders.

Most importantly, the girl actually harbored a strange sense of protectiveness towards Chen Yan, not wanting outsiders to call him a scumbag.

Terms like "bastard," "scumbag," and "dog of a man" are only acceptable to family members; no one else can use them.

A jumble of thoughts swirled in Krystal Jung's mind, making her kick her long legs a few times in frustration.

"Ugh! This is so annoying, that jerk is always causing me trouble!"

The door to the room suddenly opened a second later, and Jessica Jung's cold and beautiful face peeked in, her brows slightly furrowed as she looked at Krystal Jung on the bed.

"What are you yelling about, Krystal Jung? What bastard? What happened?"

"Oh, it's nothing. I just looked at the dense schedule my agent sent me and cursed the company a couple of times."

Startled, Krystal Jung instinctively pressed her phone to her chest and quickly made up an excuse.

Then, complaining, she asked back, "Jessica, why didn't you knock? You just opened the door and startled me."

"I was just a little anxious because I heard you swearing. I'll knock next time. If you have a busy schedule, get some rest earlier and don't stay up too late on your phone."

Jessica Jung didn't doubt her younger sister's words. She often cursed the company, and the company was indeed inhuman most of the time.

"Okay, I'm not a child anymore. I know what I'm doing. You should go to sleep early too. The tour is about to start."

Upon hearing this, Jessica Jung secretly pursed her lips.

If you weren't coming back tonight, I would probably be soundly asleep in Xiaoyan's arms by now. Sleeping in his arms is much more comfortable than sleeping alone.

At this moment, Yoona's legs were already a little weak: Unnie, I can't quite handle this satisfaction.

"I'm going to sleep now, goodnight."

"OK, good night."

The door to the room closed, and Jung Soo-jung breathed a sigh of relief on the bed.

Picking up her phone again, probably after seeing that she had read her message but hadn't replied for a while, Bae Suzy sent her another message.

Suzy: It's okay. If it's inconvenient for you to say it, then don't worry about it. I'll keep my distance from oppa from now on.

Krystal Jung's expression lit up with joy; she had achieved her goal.

After thinking for a moment, he typed back: "Okay, just trust me and try to keep your distance from Chen Yan."

Suzy: Okay, I understand.

Upon seeing the message, the girl couldn't help but grin.

Hmph, you bastard, you think you can collect all seven Dragon Balls?
I don't think about it!

On the other end of the phone, Bae Suzy, also lying on her own bed, looked at Jung Soo-jung's reply, her thoughtful expression never fading.

She slowly swiped her phone screen and looked through her chat history with Krystal Jung again, from the beginning to the present.

A moment later, a strange look appeared on the girl's face.

There's a problem, there's definitely a problem.

Although Krystal kept saying that oppa was not a good person and even called him a bastard, the way she kept emphasizing it didn't seem like she really hated oppa.

There must be something going on here. I'm so curious.

Even if we assume that oppa really is a scumbag, Krystal must at least know something about it.

In this situation, given her personality, if she's still willing to be close to oppa...
Hmm, I'm even more curious now.

It seems I need to find more opportunities to get to know oppa. After asking around with Soojung, this man suddenly seems more mysterious and unpredictable.

As she was thinking, Bae Soo-ji suddenly recalled her conversation with Chen Yan that afternoon.

Chen Yan: "Actually, I'm a scumbag."

Bae Suzy: "Then oppa, would you be willing to cheat on me?"

Chen Yan: "So, Suzy, are you willing to be dumped by me?"

Recalling this conversation, which carried a strangely ambiguous air, the girl's fair face suddenly flushed, and she pouted, muttering:
"It's not that easy for you to mess with me."

The following day, June officially began, and June 1st is also International Children's Day, but the people of the peninsula don't celebrate it; they have their own Children's Day.

In the morning, at JYP Entertainment, in Park Jin-young's office.

As Park Jin-young looked at the handsome man and beautiful woman in front of him, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes deepened because of the wide smile on his face.

Indeed, beautiful things can make people feel happy.

His gaze swept over Chen Yan and Bae Suzy again, and he said with a smile:

"I called you and Xiuzhi over because I wanted to tell you something. You both know that the company is going to relist on June 4th, right?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yan immediately laughed: "Jin-young hyung, if we didn't know about this, would we still be JYP employees?" Bae Suzy, who was next to him, also covered her mouth and nodded with a smile: "We all know, PDnim."

Park Jin-young, sitting opposite him, wasn't embarrassed and continued, "So on June 4th, we're going to the Peninsula Stock Exchange for the bell-ringing ceremony. All the artists from our company will be there, and there will definitely be some media outside the exchange."

As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Chen Yan: "I have an idea and would like to ask for your opinion, Xiao Yan."

Chen Yan was slightly taken aback: "What are you thinking?"

"Would you like to walk with Suzy for a while when the time comes?"

Although ringing the bell at the Peninsula Stock Exchange isn't like attending an awards ceremony, and the exchange won't lay out a red carpet for them, they'll definitely have to dress up for the occasion.

For them, the short stretch of road from outside the Peninsula Stock Exchange to the entrance is like a red carpet.

Naturally, we need to find ways to create some highlights to attract media attention and achieve better exposure and publicity.

A rising producer plus the nation's first love, a handsome man plus a beautiful woman—this combination is undoubtedly a good choice.

"Of course, if you don't want to, Xiaoyan, you can come with me."

Before she could finish speaking, Chen Yan interrupted her with a firm voice: "I'll go with Xiuzhi, Zhenying hyung."

Bae Suzy and Park Jin-young, even a fool would know which one to choose. Who wouldn't want a beautiful woman next to them?

Moreover, Chen Yan was also afraid that Park Jin-young might suddenly pull some tricks on him, like pouting and making a heart shape with his cheeks, which would be really hard for him to handle.

After all, this guy is known for his love of gimmicks and abstract designs; just imagining the scene makes him already resistant.

Bae Suzy, with her sweet and soft demeanor, is a million times better than this guy. Even if she pouts or makes a heart shape with her cheeks, it's not unacceptable.

Moreover, this is a legitimate work requirement, and the four people in the family won't have any objections.

Beside her, Bae Suzy heard Chen Yan's firm choice and was startled, turning her head to look.

Although her competitor was Park Jin-young, a man with almost no competitive edge, she couldn't help but feel a little thrill when she was firmly chosen.

Park Jin-young's voice on the other end sounded somewhat resentful: "Xiao Yan, your attitude of not hesitating at all makes me lose face."

Chen Yan smiled and stretched out his hand to the right, gesturing for the guy to look this way: "Brother Zhenying, this is Bae Suzy, who would refuse her?"

Park Jin-young turned his head slightly to look at the girl, who had a pure and charming smile on her face and blinked her bright rabbit eyes a few times.

Okay, if it were me, I'd also participate in the talent show.

However, he didn't forget to undermine Chen Yan: "Xiao Yan, you're so determined now, but why did you refuse so quickly the two times I asked you to create a scandal with Suzy?"

Ok?
Bae Soo-ji paused for a moment, then immediately turned to look at Chen Yan.

This oppa refused to have any rumors with him, and twice at that?!

She genuinely didn't know that such a thing existed.

Chen Yan was also stunned for a moment, then explained with a wry smile, "How can that be the same, Zhenying? The first two times it was to create a dating rumor, which could have affected Xiuzhi. This time it's just normal work."

"Alright, alright, it's not like I don't know that."

Park Jin-young, with a hint of urgency, said, "That's how it is. Soo-ji, you don't have any objections, right?"

Bae Suzy smiled and shook her head: "No."

Of course she'd be willing to be with this oppa.

"Okay, then you and Xiaoyan will go together, and I'll go with the other three members of Miss A. Alright, you all go ahead and get busy."

The two nodded and got up to leave Park Jin-young's office.

As they walked side by side toward the elevator, Chen Yan felt the gaze that had been fixed on him.

Turning his head, he saw the girl pouting slightly, her eyes filled with a hint of resentment, as if Chen Yan had done something to wrong her.

Why are you looking at me like that? I don't think I've done anything to wrong you, have I?

Bae Suzy looked at him for a few more seconds, then turned to look around at the empty surroundings before speaking, "Oppa said yesterday that he was a jerk, right?"

Chen Yan paused for a moment, then smiled and nodded: "Yes."

"Then why did oppa refuse to have a dating rumor with me, and twice at that?"

Chen Yan was taken aback again. After pressing the elevator button, he looked at Bae Suzy and asked in confusion, "Is there any connection between the two?"

Bae Suzy pouted and leaned closer to oppa; "So you mean oppa doesn't want to cheat on me?"

If he really is a scumbag, he definitely won't miss the opportunity to create a scandal with me, unless he doesn't want to scumbag me.

Blinking, Chen Yan quickly understood what the girl meant and couldn't help but smile.

"Ding"

The elevator arrived at the floor, and the elevator doors slowly opened.

The two entered the elevator. Chen Yan pressed the button for his work floor and then looked at Bae Suzy: "Suzy, which floor are you going to?"

"On the basement level, there's a photoshoot for a magazine behind me."

Chen Yan nodded and pressed the button for the basement level.

Bae Suzy pursed her lips: "Oppa hasn't answered my question yet."

Chen Yan chuckled and turned to look at her: "What? Do you think I have to spread rumors about you to cheat on you? Spreading rumors isn't a good thing for you, so why would I choose a method that's bad for you? There are clearly many other methods."

"Well"

Startled by the man's words, Bae Suzy was momentarily stunned. By the time she came to her senses, the elevator had already reached her workplace.

The elevator doors slowly opened, and Chen Yan looked at the girl, then suddenly smiled and raised his hand to lightly flick her forehead.

"I'm leaving now. You should go and get back to work. Don't keep thinking about whether I'm a jerk or not."

"Oh"

Bae Suzy responded blankly, and only after the elevator doors closed and Chen Yan's figure disappeared from her sight did she raise her hand to touch her forehead.

She glanced at the elevator door again, then pursed her lips.

Krystal is wrong, this oppa is definitely a good person.

but.
It's probably true that he's a scumbag.

so.
Does he even want to cheat on me?
