Peninsula Platinum Era

Chapter 9 Meiyan is not confused about important matters.

"She looks even more beautiful than before. It's true that rosy cheeks are good for you."

Actually, Chen Shijun didn't know whether this group was popular or not. They were probably popular, but maybe not as popular as Xiao Yuan and the others. At least IZ*ONE was much more popular.

Being an idol has definitely made me more refined than before, both in terms of clothing and makeup, and even in my gestures and expressions, which show more signs of being sculpted.

"I'm happy to see that Sejun oppa is doing well. I heard he joined Big Hit, which is a really great company, much better than CUBE."

Seeing that the man didn't make things difficult, Zhao Meiyan breathed a sigh of relief. She had mustered up a lot of courage to come to this meeting and had spent a long time mentally preparing herself.

She nervously touched her earrings. She had put on beautiful makeup and even wore clothes that Chen Shijun liked, hoping to rekindle some of their past affection and quell his anger.

She felt no guilt towards the man, because she never thought she could cause him any harm; he was the type of person who rarely got upset over relationships.

"Go talk about your own business. Breaking up without even saying goodbye isn't a normal way to do it."

There are always some quirky cafes in Hanok Village. The second floor of this cafe looks like you can reach out and touch the building across the alley. The sunlight shining on you makes you feel very lazy.

Stirring the coffee in his cup, Chen Shijun no longer felt the nameless rage he had felt that day. He was simply curious to see what this girl had to say, which was a bit of a wicked pleasure for him.

"Did it bother oppa? I don't think so. Isn't oppa always the type to accept anyone who comes and let go of anyone who leaves?"

Seeing that the man was trying to put psychological pressure on her, Meiyan felt that she should regain some initiative, otherwise she would only become a lamb to the slaughter if she fell into his rhythm.

"I told you to talk about your own affairs. Does that mean I'm at fault for leaving without saying goodbye?"

Chen Shijun took off his glasses and placed them in front of him. To be honest, he used to really like this girl. She was pretty and had a good personality. Although she was young, she was very caring.

So he treated this woman quite well, at least during her low period, he didn't skimp on her expenses at all, and her decision to run away surprised him.

"I fully acknowledge my mistakes, and I will apologize to oppa with all my sincerity. I am willing to do anything within my power."

Ms. Zhao felt she had to take the blame honestly, but she hadn't committed any capital offense, and she came today hoping to reach a settlement.

But Chen Shijun seemed to be playing a cat-and-mouse game with her, which made her very uncomfortable. Suppressing her fear, she firmly retorted.

"Oppa came today, did he want to see me make a fool of myself by winking and begging for forgiveness for my mistakes? I don't think oppa would be that bored."

Having been with the man for quite some time, Meiyan wasn't worried about him ruining her life because of love turning into hate. This guy had always been cold-hearted, but he was by no means a despicable person.

"Good, good! You've really grown. I really underestimated you, Zhao Meiyan."

Looking at the woman opposite him, who was trying her best to keep a straight face, but whose facial muscles were twitching with tension, Chen Shijun felt like laughing, not because he wanted to mock Zhao Meiyan.

He believes he has always maintained a distant attitude towards women, sometimes unilaterally demanding affection, and even showing indifference to his partner's vulnerability. He interprets all of this as a form of emotional control, hoping to maintain stability under pressure.

The other party is just prioritizing their own interests and being self-centered. If I get angry, wouldn't that be hypocrisy? But she wasn't like this when we first met. Maybe I really learned something from her.

I have a sense of indifference towards you, so I'll accept your selfishness this once. Chen Shijun believes that one should be principled and reasonable.

As the saying goes, it's easy to forgive yourself but hard to forgive others. It wasn't until now that Chen Shijun had completely forgiven the woman in front of him, but he still had other ideas about how to treat her.

"I've followed oppa for so long, I can't have made no progress at all. He keeps saying I'm a beautiful but useless person, but a person can't be useless forever."

Miyeon took off a diamond necklace from her neck. It was a birthday gift from this man; its dazzling brilliance was beautiful. In the following months, she was selected for the debut group, and everything went on a fast track after that. Things she had never had before were now within her grasp.

She left in a hurry, and even after she remembered, she kept thinking about returning the things, but the shame in her heart always made her uneasy, so she kept putting it off.

She reached out and pushed it in front of Chen Shijun. Even though she had debuted and seen some of the world, she still felt that this gift was very precious. She could imagine how good this man had been to her back then.

But how long can this good relationship last? She guesses that he's probably already surrounded by a whole new batch of people. She doesn't believe that Chen Shijun would be depressed for her sake; he's most likely to have moved on to a new battleground soon.

"Keep it and wear it. I never take back what I give away."

Chen Shijun felt like he was catching up with an old friend. This woman claimed that indifference and selfishness could also be transmitted sexually, which provided a new direction for personality psychology in South Korea.

The two chatted and laughed, and to outsiders they looked like just an ordinary couple or old friends reunited after a long separation.

"You're really on the right track. Who dares to say you're stupid? Who dares to say you're not smart? These fans really don't understand you. Meiyan is not confused about important matters."

Now, as a senior executive in an entertainment company, I have naturally gained a deeper understanding of girl group projects in the market, and this girl group is one of the most sought-after in the market.

He should be able to save enough for his retirement in a few years, but his work style has changed from entertaining himself to amusing his fans.

"At that time, I was thinking that if there was really no hope of debuting, I would stay by oppa's side and try my best to win his favor."

As Meiyan became more relaxed, she spoke more and more frequently, and even analyzed her own mental journey for the man.

It must be said that this woman has grasped the big picture, but there is still room for improvement in the details. And the fact that she is behaving like this at her age shows that she still lacks some talent.

If I don't want to waste any more time talking to this man, the best course of action is to end the conversation and leave as soon as possible, but I also seem to want to end that time in a more dignified way.

"But I'm also afraid that you might kick me out at any time. You know, if I lose that opportunity, I'll never have another chance to debut."

Watching this woman sip her coffee while making her own arguments, Chen Shijun thought that she was being hypocritical and that her mental fortitude was becoming more and more like his own. He wondered if this was where her learning ability was going to be.

"Really? Did I say I would restrict your debut? I remember supporting you when you joined that Cube Entertainment group."

Chen Shijun's words seemed to have suddenly gripped the woman's neck, causing her to lose her composure and have no choice but to shut her mouth and reorganize her thoughts internally.

Thinking about how I influenced such a seemingly honest woman to become like this, it's somewhat amusing. Could it be that one is influenced by one's surroundings?

"Come on! Walk with me for a bit."

Chen Shijun's words startled Zhao Meiyan, who was trying to calm herself down, and she was a little confused about what he was thinking.

"Walk around? Where to?"

For a rookie idol, being caught dating shortly after debuting in a group is a troublesome thing.

"It's nothing, it's just that you surprised me so much today, and I felt that even a breakup should have some kind of ceremony."
