Peninsula: From a supporting actor to the best actor in Chungmuro

Chapter 101 Practice Room Charging Rules

After accepting Bae Suzy’s friend request.

Jiang Zaixun carefully replied:

[Sorry, I can't make it. I will definitely cooperate next time if there is a chance.]

As soon as the message was sent, the other party showed "typing".

[Bae Suzy]: I understand~ But how does the coffee taste?
Jiang Jae-hoon looked up at the driver's seat:

"Brother, is the coffee good?"

Jin Dayuan replied vaguely with a toothpick in his mouth:
“Doesn’t all coffee taste the same?”

Jiang Jae-hoon: “…”

Head down typing:

【It tastes good. 】

As soon as the message was sent, Bae Suzy immediately replied:
[Then tell me in advance next time you come to the store, and I will reserve a special model for you~]

(Special edition?)
Jiang Zaixun politely replied with a "thank you" emoticon and added:

[It's a courtesy to reciprocate. If you need publicity, you can come to the radio show I host.]

[Bae Suzy]: Wow! I have to prepare well then^^
"..."

Jiang Jae-hoon turned his head and looked out the window.

The streets of Gangnam District were rapidly receding.

SM Entertainment's iconic building is already visible.

The nanny car slowly drove into the underground parking lot.

During the ten seconds that the elevator was rising, Jin Dayuan suddenly spoke:
"The radio station invites you quite frequently, huh?"

"It was just... a polite invitation. I didn't expect..."

"Ah."

The moment the elevator door opened.

The loud music mixed from multiple practice rooms made the floor vibrate slightly.

Kang Jae-hoon brought coffee and cake to F(x)'s exclusive practice room and quietly pushed the door open.

The music just reaches its climax.

Krystal suddenly slid forward, put her finger on the trigger, and made a shooting gesture towards the mirror.

Just at this moment.

Her sight caught the figure at the door through the reflection of the mirror.

The originally stern expression instantly melted into marshmallow melted by the sun, so sweet that you could pull out threads.

She blinked at Kang Jae-hoon in the mirror, and held the last ending pose with extra effort.

The music stopped abruptly.

The sisters collapsed to the ground in an instant.

Only Krystal Jung was jumping towards the door like a clockwork doll.

Jiang Jae-hoon subconsciously opened his arms.

But when he caught a glimpse of seven or eight pairs of eyes scanning him, he abruptly changed his action and raised the coffee and cake in his hands:
"Thanks for your hard work."

This also caused Krystal Jung's original intention to throw herself into his arms to suddenly stop two steps in front of him.

She didn't say anything, but her bright eyes revealed so much emotion.

"Cough-cough-"

Liu Yiyun suddenly coughed twice.

Luna understood immediately and fanned her nose exaggeratedly:

"Hey, where does this sour smell come from?"

Song Qian looked around cooperatively:

"Did someone spill the vinegar?"

"I don't think it's vinegar."

Shirley finished with a final comment: "It seems like the sour smell of love?"

"Oh~~~"

The crowd's booing made Krystal's face instantly turn as red as the strawberry cake in her hand.

She snatched the coffee bag from Jiang Zaixun's hand:

"If you keep talking nonsense, I won't give you any coffee!"

"Wow! Threatening us?"

Sulli immediately pounced on her and tickled her, and Krystal screamed and hid behind Kang Jae-hoon, using him as a human shield.

"Son-in-law Jiang—"

Luna took the coffee and said slowly:

"Our maknae has been giggling while holding his phone lately. Do you know what's going on?"

"Ginger what?"

"Son-in-law Jiang, our Crystal is——"

"Ouni!!!"

Krystal peeked out from behind Kang Jae-hoon and glared at her fiercely, but her red cheeks made the threat ineffective. "Okay, okay, I won't say anymore~"

Luna distributed coffee to everyone and added with a smile:

"But brother-in-law, remember to bring more food when you come to visit us next time."

“Brother-in-law!?”

This time even Jiang Zaixun couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

There was laughter in the practice room.

"Alright, alright, if you keep teasing me, someone's going to get mad."

Song Qian clapped her hands: "We still have plans, let's retreat first~"

Before leaving, Liu Yiyun suddenly turned around and made a shooting gesture to Jiang Zaixun:
"Be nice to our maknae, otherwise..." She made a gesture of wiping her neck and was dragged away by Luna with a smile.

The door of the practice room closed gently, blocking out the last trace of laughter.

The hum of the air conditioner and the music from other practice rooms in the distance intertwined to form a strange background sound. Jiang Zaixun was still staring at the door in a daze when he was suddenly hugged from behind by a warm body.

Krystal's cheek rested on his back:
"Oppa~"

Jiang Zaixun turned around——

The sweat from practice made her bangs wet and stuck to her forehead. Her cheeks were a faint pink from the fight just now, and her lips were slightly pouting with dissatisfaction.

"did you miss me?"

Jiang Zaixun smiled and reached out to push away her sweaty bangs from her forehead:

"Ah."

"What do you mean?"

Zheng Xiujing reached out and pulled his cheek: "To be honest, I miss our Xiujing."

"I miss our Soo-jung."

Jiang Zaixun's voice was a little hoarse because his cheek was pulled.

This caused her to burst out laughing, and she threw herself into his arms:
"Charge!"

"what?"

Zheng Xiujing raised her face, pursed her lips and asked for a kiss:
"It takes kissing to be full~"

Jiang Zaixun looked at the cute appearance and suddenly felt something gently hit his chest.

Just about to lower his head and kiss her.

"and many more."

Krystal suddenly looked around nervously, and only closed her eyes again after confirming that everything was alright:

"All right."

Strawberry flavored lip balm is so addictive and sweet.

The brief kiss left him feeling unsatisfied.

"not enough."

Krystal tugged at his collar and pulled it down: "It has to be full."

This kiss was much deeper than before.

Jiang Zaixun placed his palm on her lower back, gently touching the protruding spine through the thin sweatshirt.

She moved her hand, which was grabbing Jiang Zaixun's collar, around his neck, stroking the short hair on the back of his neck with her fingertips.

The music in the practice room next door suddenly switched to intense dance music, and the drum beats made the floor tremble slightly.

But at this moment, all that reached Jiang Zaixun's ears was the sound of their breathing intertwined with each other, and the faint sticky sound of strawberry-flavored lipstick melting between their lips and teeth.

Krystal's fingers had already slipped into his hair without her knowing.

This small, possessive gesture caused Jiang Zaixun's arm around his throat to tighten unconsciously.

The door of the practice room was suddenly pushed open——

"Did I...come at the wrong time?"

The choreographer stood there in a daze, holding the tablet computer.

The two separated as if they had been electrocuted.

Zheng Xiujing wiped the corner of her mouth in panic:
"No, no! We're discussing traffic flow design! Right?"

Jiang Zaixun nodded vigorously:

"Yes, yes, the movement line! It's... the movement line!"

The choreographer pursed his lips:

"But I haven't taught you how to move yet?"

"..."

Silence spread among the three of them.

Zheng Xiujing grabbed the coffee on the ground and took a tactical sip:
"We're... rehearsing! Yes, rehearsing our moves!"

Jiang Jae-hoon cooperated and turned around on the spot.

As a result, his left foot tripped over his right foot and he almost fell into the bar area.

When Krystal Jung hurriedly supported them, their red cheeks formed a perfect symmetry in the mirror wall.
