Peninsula Platinum Era

Chapter 302 Drenched in Sweat
"There's no problem with the weekend, but don't you need to get some rest?"

Chen Shijun quickly forgot about Captain Shaoqing's invitation; the flowers in the small garden were always more on his mind.

"The doctor said it's okay for me to go on some hikes and see some scenery; it can't hurt. Will it interfere with oppa's work?"

Knowing that Chen Shijun was busy not only at work but also in his personal life, An An was still somewhat cautious about making the suggestion.

“I also need to rest. It’s not like I’m being sold to HYBE. If everyone is going to give their all to their work, then what’s the point of making so much money?”

Chen Shijun is relatively easygoing; in fact, among all the wealthy people, he is probably the most comfortable.

Many wealthy individuals bear numerous responsibilities and must prioritize business development as their core objective, making it difficult for them not to experience anxiety.

As a decision-maker, one is often swept up by the market and capital, and must constantly chase the latest trends. That state of high tension is actually very difficult to endure.

Those in power are undoubtedly primarily responsible for the fluctuations and risks caused by poor decision-making, and the media spotlight can also be exhausting.

"This is also a way to celebrate Youzhen's removal of her glasses, and your birthday is coming up soon too! Let's celebrate for you in advance."

You wouldn't know unless you were told, but in the video, Yu-jin sat up in bed, looked at the date on the calendar, and suddenly blushed unconsciously.

After much thought, she was 100% certain of Chen Shijun's obvious ambition towards her. After all, the relationship between men and women wasn't that complicated, just like how she was attracted to him.

Judging from the bracelet he gave me, it's clear that we weren't in a very intimate relationship. Why would he give me such a suggestive gift? It's obviously a final test.

If the woman really wasn't interested, they should have said goodbye at this point. But he didn't make any such decision. Instead, he gave an even more ambiguous response, and the story naturally progressed to where it should have been.

As for Yuan Ying, she is indeed a big problem. This girl is really in the way, but she is still in her invincible period. A year is enough time for her to be far behind.

Before you launched your attack, I had already launched mine. An'an felt this was her advantage. After all, you are younger than me, little sister. Even if you have innate advantages, you also have innate disadvantages.

Thinking of this, Youzhen felt that Yuanying was really too pitiful. You little brat, you can only watch your older sister conquer cities and territories.

Thinking about this made her happy. Although she didn't know whether her decision would be a blessing or a curse, she couldn't possibly be the one who suffered a loss by having a sweet romance with such a man.

"Then it's settled. Let's go out and have fun this weekend. Let's go see the sea together. Although I can't swim, it would be nice to just feel the sea breeze."

Although the girl wasn't facing the screen directly, Chen Shijun could still see her holding her face in her hands, which was undeniably adorable.

Chen Shijun couldn't help but think of Eun-chae, who had a cute appearance when she was still chubby.

It's worth mentioning, however, that when Eun-chae first debuted, she was already 24 years old. As she lost weight, her fresh-faced college graduate persona was instantly replaced by a mature, sophisticated aura.

An idol can't possibly complete their transformation so late. An An has lost a lot of weight now. Although her physique is still just as strong, her facial bone structure is definitely more outstanding.

To be honest, both she and Jung Eun-chae have the kind of bone structure that makes them suitable for movies. Perhaps they can develop in these areas in the future, as they have faces that tell a story.

"Alright, alright, whatever Youzhen says."

In his early years, Chen Shijun had experienced countless fast-paced relationships, fleeting and ephemeral, but as he grew older, he gradually came to appreciate this slow and gentle feeling. "Then it's settled! I'll find the clothes I want to wear."

Yu-zhen felt great and jumped out of bed. She started browsing through the clothes she wanted to wear on the wardrobe. Chen Shi-jun saw that Yu-zhen was no longer on the screen and only heard the sound of rummaging through drawers. The corners of his mouth also turned up involuntarily.

"I've always wanted to go to Tongying, but it feels so far away. I think I'll go to Longyou Island instead."

Listening to the girl's ramblings, Chen Shijun thought to himself, "I know this place well. When Zhao Meiyan first entered the palace, the two of us went there several times, although it didn't feel like anything special."

After all, Incheon is Zhao Meiyan's hometown, and she is familiar with it and has special feelings for it, so Chen Shijun's feelings for her can be considered a case of loving her because of her.

But Zhao Meiyan made a promise with him that they would come and play together in the future. However, the woman ran away for her future career, and that promise became quite ridiculous. If it weren't for Master Chen's kindness, that stupid woman would have been in big trouble long ago.

The flowers are similar year after year, but the people are different year after year. It's not bad to go out with Youzhen this year. We are familiar with the place, so there is no sense of unfamiliarity.

"It's a promise, oppa! I haven't gone out to play in a long time. I'll check if there's anything good to eat in the area later."

The video call ended, the screen went dark, and the room returned to silence.

Chen Shijun put his phone aside, leaned back in his chair, and unconsciously looked out at the deep night, but the faint smile on his lips did not disappear.

A bottle of good wine was open on the table, ready to be enjoyed. Tonight, they were waiting for Eun-chae to come over so they could celebrate. Recently, Eun-chae had acquired a pretty good resource.

Coupang, an e-commerce company, has also entered the streaming media industry, creating a brand new platform called Coupangplay.

This newly established platform needed a high-quality production to gain recognition, so it spent a lot of money to produce a TV series. The series was expected to have only about eight episodes, but it made the bold statement that it would create a movie-quality experience.

The script for this TV series was originally designed for a movie, and the project itself was conceived as a film. The director is Lee Joo-young, a newcomer director who has proven herself in the film industry.

After Song Hye-kyo withdrew from the lead role, Bae Suzy, who has been struggling in recent years like Eun-chae, took over. It remains to be seen whether these two down-on-their-luck individuals can create some sparks.

While Chen Shijun waited quietly, Youzhen was anything but calm. Wearing a light-colored floral dress, she looked at herself in the mirror with a gentle expression, though Chen Shijun had mentioned that he seemed to like her cheerful demeanor.

Without realizing it, she pulled out the small box at the bottom of the suitcase, took out the necklace, and gently fastened it around her neck. She had to admit it looked quite pretty.

A quick online search revealed that many female celebrities wear similar styles of jewelry, which suggests that my thinking is too narrow. Female celebrities from East Asia, including China, Japan, and South Korea, as well as Europe and America, all have this style.

Furthermore, the comments from fans below were very friendly. It seems that Chen Shijun just has a more advanced aesthetic sense. After all, he is still a person in the entertainment industry, and it's not good to be so outdated.

After working for half a day, I realized it was time to put in my eye drops, so I had to stop what I was doing and lie down on the bed to rest.

But after wearing something around her neck for a long time, she would forget it was there. When An'an tried to go to the bathroom, she ran into her older sister who was home for the holidays.

"What's that you're wearing around your neck? It looks pretty!"

The older sister didn't see clearly at first and reached out to touch it. When she saw her younger sister, she was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat.
