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

Chapter 496 Why is it so difficult to get this man into my waiting room?

Chapter 496 Why is it so difficult to bring this man back to my waiting room?

Chen Yan turned his head and saw a tall figure with long, wine-red hair standing at the door of a waiting room not far away.

"Oh, it's Krystal."

He responded somewhat blankly.

If he heard correctly, this girl just called him oppa, right?

Krystal Jung walked over with her long legs.

Beside her, Jung Eun-ji immediately bowed to her; "Krystal sunbaenim."

A smile appeared on the girl's cool face as she nodded in return, "Hello, Eunji-ssi."

She knew Jung Eun-ji from Apink.

Or rather, she secretly memorized all the members of female idol groups related to Chen Yan.

After greeting everyone, Krystal Jung turned to look at Chen Yan beside her, a slight smile playing on her lips.

"Oppa, you're here! Perfect timing. Sulli told me she was worried you wouldn't be able to find our waiting room, so she asked me to come out and meet you."

Chen Yan blinked as he watched the girl finish speaking with an incredibly natural expression.

When did he ever tell Taozi that he was coming to visit the set? He didn't tell anyone he was coming, just to have a little surprise.

However, he reacted quickly, immediately replying with a smile, "I was indeed looking for your waiting room."

"Right? That's why I came out to pick you up."

Krystal Jung smiled and replied, but inwardly she scoffed, "Hmph, looking for our waiting room? If I had come out a few seconds later, you'd probably be in Apink's waiting room by now."

Chen Yan turned to Jung Eunji and smiled, "Eunji, I'll go wait in Soojung's waiting room for a while, and then I'll come to see you guys later."

Jung Eunji nodded blankly: "Oh, okay, oppa."

"Okay, remember to give the coffee to Chorong and the others. Also, remember to tell your manager that I ordered a support coffee truck at the entrance of the broadcasting station and ask her to send someone to arrange it."

"okay."

Chen Yan and Jung Soo-jung turned and walked towards f(x)'s waiting room. Jung Eun-ji stood there and watched their backs, scratched her head, and then turned and walked towards her own waiting room.

Although she has a straightforward personality and sometimes seems a bit naive, that doesn't mean she isn't thoughtful.

There seems to be something fishy going on between oppa and Krystal.

She had a feeling that if she asked oppa to go to their waiting room first, something terrible would happen.

The girl shook her head slightly, then smiled again.

Hehe ~
When I get back to the dorm tonight, I can gossip a little with Chorong and the others.

Oppa and Krystal do look like a good match; the man is handsome and the woman is beautiful.

Hmph, Jung Eun-ji is quite sensible. She didn't say a word the whole time, nor did she fight or compete. She just let me take Chen Yan away.

On the other side, Jung Soo-jung, walking side by side with Chen Yan, muttered to herself and couldn't help but smile.

She subconsciously turned her head to look at Chen Yan beside her, only to see that the man was also looking at her with a strange smile on his face.

The girl quickly stopped smiling: "Why are you looking at me?"

"You just called me oppa?"

Her steps immediately faltered, and a hint of panic flashed across Jung Soo-jung's expression.

She was watching Chen Yan and Jung Eunji chatting and got anxious, so she called out "oppa".

She quickly calmed down and nodded: "Yes."

"Didn't you say you wouldn't call me that?"

“We’re outside, and there are so many people in the hallway. I can’t just call you by your name, can I? People will gossip, and you’ll lose face.”

The girl slightly raised her chin and glanced at Chen Yan, clearly meaning: I call you oppa in public to give you face.

Seeing this, Chen Yan smiled and didn't argue with this arrogant guy about the matter. Instead, he asked:
"But what are you doing out here? Don't tell me you came out to pick me up. Peach has no idea I'm here."

Unless this girl, like me, can foresee the future and knew I would be here today, and then came out specifically for this reason.

Krystal Jung was slightly taken aback, her face flushing slightly: "I...I came out to use the restroom."

"Oh, then you go ahead, I'll just go to your waiting room myself."

Krystal Jung didn't move, her beautiful eyes fixed on Chen Yan.

That look seemed to say: Who knows if you'll turn around and go to someone else's waiting room after I leave.

Chen Yan understood, and was somewhat amused and exasperated.

He raised his hand to indicate the coffee in his hand, and then gestured with his eyes to the waiting room across the street with the f(x) nameplate on the door.

"I'm here today to visit you on set."

"What about Apink?"

"The songs they sang were also my works, and they're promoting their music here today, so it's only right that I go and see them."

"Oh."

Krystal Jung understood; the man was mainly there to visit them on set, and Apink was just a side trip.

Yes, she was very satisfied with this attitude.

"Then you can go in by yourself."

After saying that, she turned and walked towards the restroom at the end of the corridor.

Chen Yan smiled as he watched her retreating figure.

This girl is quite jealous.

Just as he was about to look away, an uninvited guest suddenly entered his field of vision.

Suddenly, a tall man appeared from around the corner, blocking Jung Soo-jung's path, holding something in his hand.

Immediately guessing what was going on, Chen Yan raised an eyebrow and subconsciously called out, "Soojung."

The sound was quite loud, and people nearby heard it and looked over.

Krystal Jung turned her head in surprise and saw Chen Yan walking towards her with a smile. He stopped next to her and said:

"I also need to use the restroom, let's go together."

As she spoke, she glanced at the man next to her and the note in his hand.

I don't recognize her; she's probably not a very popular artist.

The man lowered his head and subconsciously took a step back after being glanced at by Chen Yan.

"okay."

Seemingly still a little dazed, Krystal Jung gave a blank reply and subconsciously took a step to follow Chen Yan, leaving the place.

From the moment Chen Yan arrived until the two of them left, neither of them glanced directly at the man beside them.

The man stood there watching the two figures disappear into the distance, so embarrassed he almost scratched his toes on the ground.

The chatter resumed in the corridor, with many people talking to their companions while keeping their eyes on the man and wearing enigmatic smiles.

The man instantly felt like a clown in a circus, being pointed at and laughed at by the audience, who seemed to be mocking his overestimation of his abilities.

Look at who's standing next to Krystal Jung, and then look at yourself, do you even deserve it?
The man blushed with shame and anger, immediately turned around, and quickly left.

Chen Yan was unaware of what happened in the corridor after he and Jung Soo-jung left.

But even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

He had called out to Jung Soo-jung a little loudly earlier, intending to attract other people's attention.

He turned into a clown, and he deserved it. A male idol, and a male idol with little popularity at that, instead of focusing on his career and trying to increase his popularity, he spends all his time thinking about romance.

They even hired a popular female celebrity like Krystal, maybe they were thinking of using Krystal's popularity to indirectly boost their own.

If you don't embarrass this kind of person, he'll never know his own limitations.

Beside her, Krystal walked quietly side by side with Chen Yan, without saying a word, looking very well-behaved.

Her eyes kept drifting towards Chen Yan's face, as if trying to discover something.

Is he jealous?

Otherwise, why would he suddenly come over and say he wants to go to the toilet with me?
It shouldn't be a misperception; Jung Soo-jung felt that Chen Yan's words and actions just now were a little different from usual.

The moment this thought popped into her head, she felt a surge of excitement, and her gaze drifted more frequently toward Chen Yan's face, eager to find evidence to support her guess.

At this moment, Chen Yan, who was standing next to him, suddenly spoke up: "How common is this?"

His tone sounded no different from when he usually spoke.

Krystal Jung was slightly taken aback, then realized what he was asking, and subconsciously raised her hand to smooth the hair behind her ear.

"It's alright."

"Have you added their contact information?"

"Of course not, why would I add their contact information? I don't even know them."

"So you added them if you knew them?"

Caught off guard by this sudden question, Jung Soo-jung paused for a moment, then pouted slightly as she looked at Chen Yan.

"I did not mean that."

The girl's tone inexplicably carried a hint of coquettishness.

Seeing this, Chen Yan smiled and said, "That's good. Don't add other people's contact information randomly. Most of them don't have good intentions."

"I know."

Krystal pursed her lips, looking slightly aggrieved. She glanced at Chen Yan and muttered softly:
"You're always talking about me. Taeyeon unnie and Yoona unnie have also encountered this situation, even more than me. Sulli had it too."

Chen Yan, who was walking shoulder to shoulder with her, heard her mutterings clearly.

He couldn't help but chuckle softly and turned to look at the girl.

"That's not the same. Taeyeon and Yoona are several years older than you, so of course they can handle this situation very well."

Krystal Jung seemed somewhat unconvinced: "What about Sulli?"

“Peach is also older than you, by 7 months, and Taeyeon and Yoona have both told her how to deal with this situation.”

"It's because you're the youngest and don't have much experience. If you're not careful, you could easily be fooled by those with ulterior motives using sweet talk."

"Tch, I'm very experienced too, okay? I've encountered this situation many times. If you hadn't come over just now, I would have simply said I didn't have this idea and then turned around and left."

"Hmm~ It seems our Krystal is quite popular~"

Krystal glared at him and puffed out her cheeks: "Are you being sarcastic or mocking?"

That inexplicable tone, and that fluctuating intonation, made no attempt to conceal it.

Chen Yan naturally wouldn't admit it: "No, how could that be?"

As he spoke, his gaze swept over the girl, then he changed the subject:

"But Krystal, you're already beautiful, and your outfit today is really stunning, so it's normal for someone to confess their feelings to you."

The girl was wearing the stage outfit for the song "First Wisdom Tooth," which was actually quite simple.

A white short-sleeved shirt, a dark blue pleated skirt, and black over-the-knee socks are common school uniform outfits for female high school students on the peninsula.

Her outfit perfectly matches Krystal Jung's age and the concept of first love in the movie "First Wisdom Tooth".

However, her outfit, which should have highlighted her pure and innocent temperament, had a touch of rebelliousness because of her burgundy hair.

The seemingly contradictory qualities of innocence and rebellion, combined with the girl's cool and beautiful face, do not appear out of place at all. Instead, they create a unique cool and sassy vibe that is truly stunning.

Chen Yan was stunned when he first saw Krystal Jung.

"Hmph, do you need to tell me? I know I'm pretty."

With a pout and a soft hum, the girl turned and continued walking forward, a faint smile playing on her lips.

It wasn't just because Chen Yan complimented her on her looks, but also because Chen Yan was jealous.

He's definitely jealous!
The lecture I just gave was a bit unusual, and I even directly warned myself not to add other people's contact information indiscriminately.

From what he said and did until now, it's clear that this man is indeed a little jealous.

Although the girl has never been in a relationship, she has read quite a few romance dramas and novels, which perfectly fits the description of jealousy.

Hmph, this man really does like me.

Having figured this out, the girl's smile widened even further.

She was more confident about the success rate of confronting Chen Yan after the return was over.

Krystal Jung had actually thought about why Chen Yan hadn't made a move on her yet.

It's highly likely that their previous bickering relationship led them to inexplicably become like siblings.

In addition, I was a bit arrogant—no, more like reserved—and didn't give any clear signals, which led to the current situation.

However, as long as she takes this step, breaks through this barrier, and gives a clear signal, then she and Chen Yan will naturally take another step forward.

Hmph, just wait and see, she'll definitely give Chen Yan a real scare.

I like you too, you idiot!
"Go ahead, I'll wait for you here."

As they reached the restroom door, Chen Yan spoke to Jung Soo-jung.

"it is good."

Krystal Jung pursed her lips, nodded, and went into the restroom.

It has to be said that the feeling of having someone you like waiting for you at the bathroom door is a bit strange, but also inexplicably makes you feel very safe.

However, if it were someone else, that would be considered a perverted act of staking out.

A few minutes later, Krystal Jung came out of the women's restroom, washed her hands at the sink, dried them, and walked up to Chen Yan, reaching out to take the coffee from his hand.

"Give it to me, go ahead, I'll wait for you here."

"Row."

Chen Yan handed her the coffee and went into the men's restroom.

He hadn't originally planned to go to the bathroom; he just said that as an excuse to help Jung Soo-jung out of a difficult situation.

But now.

Since we're already here, let's just have one.

Soon, Chen Yan came out of the men's restroom, washed and dried his hands, and returned to Zheng Xiujing's side to retrieve the bag of coffee.

"Let's go."

"Ah."

The two started walking back, and after turning a corner, they were almost at the door of f(x)'s waiting room.

Just then, a somewhat familiar voice came from behind.

"Oppa."
