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

Chapter 488 K: I'm going to confront Chen Yan. J: Coincidentally, I'm going to confront you too! (Seeking monthly votes!)
Krystal: You and Suzy kissed?
Chen Yan, who had just lain down in bed, raised an eyebrow as he looked at the message that Jung Soo-jung had sent him more than an hour ago.

He glanced down instinctively and saw that the person in his arms was fast asleep, which put his mind at ease, and he prepared to reply to the message.

Huh, what's with this inexplicable feeling of guilt? He was just having a normal chat with Krystal Jung, so what's there to feel guilty about?

But thinking about it this way, I felt a strange sense of excitement.

After all, he was holding Jessica Jung in his arms, and now he was on his phone with Krystal.
Cough
What are you thinking? I already said it was just a normal chat.

After calming down, Chen Yan replied to the message: How did you know?
Krystal: What's it to you where I found out? What? You're afraid to admit what you did?

Wow, you're so hot-tempered.

After a moment's thought, Chen Yan realized that she probably found out from Tao Zi.

Suzy would never go around telling everyone about this. The only people she would talk about it with are those close to her, and the people closest to her are Tao and Lee Ji-eun. So the answer is obvious.

He typed back: I didn't deny it, I was just asking how you knew about it, not saying it didn't happen.

Krystal: Why did you kiss her?

Chen Yan was a little dumbfounded. What kind of question was this? What did he mean by "Why did I kiss her?"

He thought for a moment and replied: The atmosphere was right, and Suzy was willing, so it wouldn't be appropriate not to kiss her.

Krystal: If she's willing, then you'll kiss her?

Chen Yan was even more confused: What else?
He's a scumbag, and the two of them were in love with each other, so how could they not take advantage of what was practically theirs?

Krystal: Ugh! You scumbag! You bastard! You dog of a man! You womanizer!

Looking at that string of words, Chen Yan grinned: Yes, yes, you're right about everything.

Krystal: Hmph! That scumbag is shameless. Did he feel good after you insulted him like that?
No, did this girl eat explosives last night?

Chen Yan: Who made you angry? Or did something unpleasant happen?

Krystal: No!

Damn it: Then why are you so angry?
Meanwhile, in the f(x) dormitory, Jung Soo-jung, lying on her bed, saw Chen Yan's reply and her angry expression froze.

Oh no! I'm getting a little tipsy!

If this conversation continues, she might just blurt out her own secret.

That won't do. We can't see his expression through the phone. It would be too stupid to expose him like that.

I need to come up with a reason to get through this.

After calming down a bit, the girl frowned slightly and thought for a moment before finding a suitable reason.

Krystal Jung: I can't stand your scumbag behavior. You wouldn't still be hiding your affair with Suzy from Taeyeon and the others, would you?

Damn it: Don't worry about that, I didn't hide it from Taeyeon and Noona.

Hey, what a scumbag! You're so honest. What kind of scumbag are you?

She typed back quickly: Humph! That's for the best! I'm not chatting anymore, I get angry every time I talk to you.

Damn it: Okay, get some rest, goodnight, and say goodnight to me and Peach too [taunting smile]

Krystal Jung: Get out!

After replying with just two words, Krystal Jung angrily threw her phone aside.

Can't you tell I'm angry? You're still grinning at me!

She took a few deep breaths, her breathing becoming somewhat heavy, and then turned to look at Peach lying on the bed next to her.

"Sherry, is it true that he didn't hide his relationship with Suzy from you?"

Peach blinked and smiled, "That's right, oppa wouldn't hide these things from me and Taeyeon unnie. Oppa knows what he's doing."

"Humph~"

She pouted and gave a soft hum, then took a deep breath, and then, as if she had thought of something, her face suddenly tightened.

She looked at Peach, pursed her lips, and cautiously asked, "Shirley, do you think Chen Yan and Xiuzhi... have they already... done that?"

Peach was slightly taken aback, then realized what was happening and couldn't help but laugh.

Seeing this, Krystal Jung was a little embarrassed and annoyed: "Hey, what are you laughing at? This is a very serious question, okay?"

"Okay, okay, I won't laugh."

Peach stopped smiling, thought for a moment, and then shook her head.

"Probably not yet. If Suzy and oppa had really gotten to that point, when I asked Suzy earlier, she would have given some hint, but she didn't, and..."

Krystal Jung asked somewhat urgently, "And what?"

"Furthermore, according to Korean Peninsula law, Suzy is still three months away from reaching adulthood."

After replying, Peach looked at Krystal Jung and smiled, "The three of us were born in '94, and Suzy's birthday is the same as yours, Krystal's, in October, only a few days apart."

Krystal Jung paused for a moment.

Oh right, that's a point too. She and Suzy were both born in 94. According to the Korean Peninsula law, they are only considered adults at 19, so they are indeed still three months away from reaching adulthood.

两个人的生日都在10月份，秀智是10月10号，她是10月24号，就差了14天。

Moreover, their names are quite similar, Soojung and Sooji, differing by only one character.

A strange idea popped into Krystal's head, making her puff out her cheeks in slight annoyance.

Born in the same year, with similar birthdays and names, they even fell in love with the same man.

After this arrangement, she and Bae Suzy inexplicably seemed to have a bit more of a rivalry between them.

Damn it!
The girl gritted her teeth, then looked at the phone she had tossed aside and gradually fell into her own thoughts.

Xiuzhi and Chen Yan have already kissed. This progress really startled her and made her a little flustered, which is why she went to find Chen Yan in a huff just now.

And she didn't expect that Suzy would actually give it away for free.

The nation's first love has abandoned even the most basic dignity.

Krystal Jung began to analyze the situation calmly.

Now, she and Suzy are on the same level.

Yes, they were on the same pace; it wasn't that she was overtaken by Suzy.

Although Suzy and Chen Yan have already kissed, she and Chen Yan also kissed, and even earlier than Suzy.

On the night of Chen Yan's birthday party, she mustered up her courage and stole a kiss from him while he was asleep.

Even a stolen kiss counts as a kiss.

Therefore, she concluded that she and Suzy were progressing at the same pace.

I wonder if she would still conclude that Bae Suzy and Chen Yan were at the same stage if she knew that they had stuck out their tongues back then.

Krystal Jung continued to frown and ponder.

No way, that girl Suzy is a total freeloader. In such a short time, she's already caught up with my progress of a year.

If we want to take Xiao Si's position before she does, we have to speed things up.

She originally planned to proceed step by step, hoping that Chen Yan might eventually fall for her trap.

But now it seems that this strategy is definitely not going to work, and we need to adopt a faster strategy.

After a moment of contemplation, the girl suddenly gritted her teeth, a determined look flashing in her eyes.

She made up her mind: once this comeback was over, she would take Chen Yan down in one fell swoop.

It might not be a confession, but it's essential to make things clear so that Chen Yan understands your feelings.

She had a gut feeling that Chen Yan didn't dislike her, but rather hadn't realized that he liked her yet.

Or perhaps he had already realized it, but subconsciously denied it, afraid to admit it. In any case, Krystal Jung felt that this couldn't be dragged on any longer.

If this drags on any longer, that girl Suzy will really steal her place.

That won't do, she was here first.

She's already been beaten to it several times; she absolutely can't let herself be beaten to it again this time.

With this thought in mind, Krystal Jung's resolve to reveal her true feelings immediately strengthened.

As for why it had to happen after the return.

This requires making a detailed plan first.

For things like confessing your feelings, the time, place, and occasion are all very important and cannot be done casually.

It's not that she's a little scared; she just needs plenty of time to prepare mentally and gather her courage.

Moreover, as Peach just reminded her, according to Korean Peninsula law, Suzy won't officially become an adult until October.

Before that, it's highly unlikely that Xiuzhi and Chen Yan will break through to the final step.

But for her personally, she doesn't have to worry about it.

She's an American citizen, and she's well past the legal age of 18 in the United States.

So as long as she can win over Chen Yan before October, the position of Xiao Si will be hers.

Having sorted out her thoughts and figured out all the key points, Krystal Jung smiled slightly.

He reached for the phone next to him and glanced at the date.

December 2013, 7.

The group will make a comeback at the end of the month, and the comeback will likely end around the end of August or the beginning of September, which is about two months.

These two months are a preparation period for herself, and also a final deadline she has set for herself.

"Whoo~"

The girl took a deep breath, her beautiful eyes filled with a mixture of anticipation and nervousness, yet brighter than ever before.

Just wait, Chen Yan.

Two months from now, it will be time for me to confront you.

Jessica Jung: What a coincidence, I was also planning to confront you around that time.

On the bed next to her, Peach took in all the changes in her younger sister's expression and smiled to herself.

It really does take time to put some pressure on Krystal; that's the most effective way to make her speed things up.

hee hee~
Peach, I'm just too smart.

but
The girl shifted her gaze to the phone screen.

The screen displays her chat interface with Lee Ji-eun.

Why are Suzy and Krystal making moves, but Ji-eun has suddenly become silent?

Instead, her words were full of resentment towards oppa, as if she was still having a little tantrum with him.

Moreover, when she was chatting with Suzy before, Suzy told her about kissing oppa and then specifically asked her not to tell Ji-eun about it.

Peach could tell at a glance what he was thinking.

It's obvious they're trying to overtake me and steal Zhi En's home.

Peach pouted slightly.

Tsk, I hope my chosen number one candidate won't end up being the last one.

Even though she saw through Suzy's thoughts, Peach had no intention of reminding her best friend.

That's what makes it fun and interesting!

As the second person to enter the house, she now has ample time to watch the three people each use their own tricks, allowing her to enjoy the show.

And what if Ji-eun really does end up last?
Peach couldn't help but imagine Lee Ji-eun's expression when she found out she had suddenly become the last one, and she couldn't help but chuckle.

This is good. This is good.

So let's not tell Ji-eun, and see if she can find out in time.

Hehe ~
Lee Ji-eun: ???

Several days passed in the blink of an eye.

Girls' Generation left the peninsula again yesterday, flying to Taiwan to continue preparations for their concerts scheduled for July 20th and 21st.

f(x) is also busy preparing for their return at the end of the month, and the family members are busy with their own things again.

Stepping into the morning sunlight, Chen Yan pushed open the office door and sat down at his desk.

He chatted on his phone for a while with Kim Tae-yeon and two others who were in Taiwan preparing for their first concert rehearsal. After they went to rehearsal, he put down his phone and turned on his computer.

The first thing he does is open the Melon website to check the scores of the songs "Something" and "Nonono," which has become a new habit for him.

"Something" is ranked 32nd on the real-time chart, 15th on the daily chart, and 9th on the weekly chart.

The rankings on all three lists have slipped considerably, but this is normal.

After all, it's been almost a month since this song was released at the end of June.

Although the music charts have seen a slight decline, this song is truly one of the hottest songs on the peninsula this summer, with almost all the dance bloggers on the peninsula sharing and dancing to this song online.

Girl's Day became an instant hit as a result, winning first place on music shows on the three major television networks in the peninsula last week, becoming one of the most popular girl groups in the peninsula right now, and a true rising star.

As Chen Yan predicted, the song "nonono" climbed steadily on the music charts.

It ranked third on the real-time chart, second on the daily chart, and first on the weekly chart.

Undoubtedly, the song became a hit, and Apink, the singer, saw her popularity soar in the past ten days.

With an existing fan base, this song propelled them from a third-tier girl group to a second-tier girl group, where they quickly established themselves.

These past few days, Jung Eun-ji has been chatting with Chen Yan about her recent situation every day. Her words are full of gratitude and admiration for Chen Yan. She also said that when they have some free time, they must all treat Chen Yan to a meal.

ACUBE's Director Choi and even the CEO called Chen Yan a couple of days ago to express their gratitude and convey their hope to continue working with him.

Chen Yan neither agreed nor refused, only saying that he would definitely do so if the opportunity arose.

Looking at the rankings of the two songs on the music charts, Chen Yan smiled.

Then she shut down the Melon website and devoted herself to planning the concept for miss A's new album.

He already has a general idea and is currently refining it.

After an unknown amount of time, a phone rang suddenly, pulling him back to reality.

Chen Yan picked up his phone, glanced at the caller ID, and answered the call.

"Hey, Jinyoung."

"Xiao Yan, come to my office for a moment, I need to talk to you about something."

"Okay, here we come."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Yan got up and walked out of the office, heading straight to Park Jin-young's office.

He sat down opposite Park Jin-young: "What's up, Jin-young hyung?"

Park Jin-young smiled and turned the computer screen towards him: "Xiao Yan, take a look at this."

Chen Yan turned his gaze to the computer screen, and after seeing the content on it, he was immediately stunned.
