Peninsula: Starting with the nation's first love, the white moonlight

Chapter 105 The Mysterious Mr. O

Nine o'clock in the morning, Girls' Generation's dormitory.

After finalizing the plan to catch the adulterer in the act with Li Luran, Lim Yoona returned to Girls' Generation's dormitory early to get some rest and prepare for the night's operation.

As soon as she pushed open the dormitory door, she saw Tiffany tiptoeing out of her room.

Yoona walked up behind her quietly and patted her on the shoulder.

"Panie, what are you doing sneaking around here so early in the morning instead of sleeping?"

Tiffany was startled, but luckily Yoona covered her mouth in time to prevent her from screaming.

"Ugh!" Tiffany, still shaken, slapped Yoona's hand away.

"Yoona, why are you back so early? I just wanted to get a drink of water."

Seeing her guilty look, Lim Yoona knew that something serious must have happened.

"Tiffany unnie, don't lie to me, you clearly walked towards Taeyeon unnie's bedroom."

Tiffany knew she was no match for this clever girl, so she had no choice but to be honest with her.

So, five minutes later.

A soft "click" sounded.

The door to one of the bedrooms was gently pushed open from the outside.

Two furtive figures crept in.

The room was dimly lit, with only a little light from the hallway lamps seeping in through the cracks in the door.

"Sunny unnie, we're here."

Yoona called out softly, her voice low.

Sunny, who was lying on the bed, sat up instantly.

She recognized the person in the dim light, then rolled her eyes in exasperation.

"Hey, Yoona, what are you doing here too?"

"I only called Tiffany!"

Yoona chuckled, revealing her pearly white teeth.

"Unnie, how could I, Im Yoona, miss out on something this fun?"

She moved closer to the bedside, urging him on with a look of anticipation.

"Quick, quick, what's going on?"

Sunny glared at Tiffany, who was standing next to her grinning foolishly.

Tiffany blinked her beautiful, smiling eyes innocently and began to explain, looking aggrieved.

"I'm sorry, Sunny, I just ran into Yoona in the hallway."

95

"Yoona kept pestering me to ask, you know what I mean—"

"Never mind, never mind."

Sunny waved her hand, too lazy to argue anymore.

Lin Chong'er is practically the dorm's gossip detector; her sense of smell is even more acute than a dog's.

Now that she's already seen us, knowing her personality, she'll definitely follow us.

Instead of trying to hide it, I might as well just tell her honestly. Maybe this clever girl can even give me some advice.

"To make a long story short, Taeyeon is definitely involved!"

Sunny lowered her voice: "Last night, I accidentally saw her secretly texting someone."

"When I leaned over to look, she actually hid her phone and wouldn't let me see it, looking guilty."

"But, hehe."

Sunny raised an eyebrow smugly.

"No matter how fast she hid, my Sunny still found her!"

"Although I couldn't see who it was, my intuition tells me it was definitely a man!"

"Really?"

Tiffany was so surprised she almost screamed.

"Panie, please keep your voice down."

"Don't wake Taeyeon unnie up."

Yoona was also startled and quickly turned her head to look at the other side of the room.

Kim Tae-yeon had her head buried in the blanket and seemed to be sleeping soundly, which made Yoona pat her chest and breathe a sigh of relief.

Sunny, however, seemed indifferent.

"Don't worry, Taeyeon is known for being a dead sleeper."

"She will never wake up unless you shout into her ear with a megaphone."

"Sunny unnie, did you see what messages Taeyeon unnie was exchanging with that man?" Im Yoona asked impatiently.

"That's why I called Panny over so early this morning!" Sunny said, sounding a little annoyed.

"Taeyeon is far too wary of me."

"I didn't see what they were talking about, but Taeyeon's nickname for that person seemed to be '0'?"

Sunny turned to look at Tiffany, who was still in shock.

"Tiffany, you and Taeyeon are always inseparable."

"Think about it carefully, does she have a friend named '0'?"

"0？"

Tiffany blinked, bit her lip, and began desperately trying to remember.

She went through everyone she knew in her mind, but in the end she shook her head in confusion.

"It seems there isn't such a person."

"Could it be the initials of one of our male celebrities' names?"

Lim Yoona stroked her chin and began to make bold guesses.

"Could it be Onew from SHINee?"

"impossible."

Sunny immediately shook her head in denial. "They hardly ever text each other in private."

The three of them huddled together and guessed for a long time, eliminating all the male celebrities in the industry whose names end in 0.

"Oh, right!"

Sunny suddenly remembered the excuse Taeyeon had used to brush her off last night.

"Yesterday, I pushed Taeyeon so hard that she told me that this person was a non-celebrity friend she met when she went back to Jeonju."

"Although her story is full of holes, it's still possible that the ordinary person is genuine!"

Upon hearing this analysis, Yoona and Tiffany both nodded in agreement.

However, problems arose as a result.

If the other person is really an ordinary person, then even if they rack their brains, they definitely won't be able to guess who it is.

"Sunny unnie, Tiffany unnie."

Yoona rolled her eyes and offered a simple and straightforward suggestion.

"The three of us have been guessing for ages, completely wasting our time."

"Since Taeyeon unnie is sleeping so soundly, why don't we just check her phone and see?"

The room suddenly fell into dead silence; the three of them looked at each other.

"Yeah! How come I didn't think of that!" Sunny said in frustration.

Just do it.

She tiptoed to Kim Tae-yeon's bedside.

She bent down and looked around the bedside table and pillow, but couldn't find her phone.

Suddenly, Yoona's hushed voice came from behind her.

"Unnie, it seems like Taeyeon unnie is still holding the phone!"

Sunny was so frightened that she trembled all over.

She turned around and glared fiercely at Lim Yoona, signaling her to shut up.

Then she held her breath, slowly bent down, and slowly pulled the phone out of Kim Tae-yeon's hand.

After getting the phone, the three of them immediately huddled together like thieves.

The screen lit up, and the problem they faced now was the unlock password.

"Sunny, try entering 0831."

Sunny glanced at Tiffany with some confusion, but she slowly entered the password.

Sure enough, after entering the correct password, the phone immediately redirected to Kakao's chat interface.

"Tiffany, how do you know Taeyeon's phone password so well?"

Sunny couldn't help but mutter a complaint while staring at the screen.

Tiffany said smugly, "What's so strange about that? Of course, Taeyeon told me herself."

"I know her phone password perfectly well, not just her phone password, but also her bank card password."

"Oh, forget about the password."

Im Yoona hurriedly tugged at their sleeves, urging them on.

"Let's quickly find out what Taeyeon unnie was talking about with that person."

The three heads instantly huddled together, revealing all the details of Kim Tae-yeon and Lee Lu-ran's conversation from the previous night.

There wasn't a single cheesy love quote I expected; the chat history only contained a few simple messages.

Taeyeon sent a message to the other person to let them know she was safe when she got back to the dorm, and then casually asked about their schedule for tomorrow.

Finally, the two said goodnight to each other.

"Sunny unnie, you must have made a mistake, right?"

Yoona pouted in disappointment.

"Isn't this just normal chat content?"

"That's right." Tiffany pointed to the time at the top of the screen.

"And look, the date they added them as friends is January 1st."

"That's exactly the day Taeyeon returned to Jeonju."

"It seems Taeyeon wasn't lying to us; this really is just an ordinary friend she met in Jeonju."

"Sunny, you're definitely overthinking it!"

"That's right, that's right."

Im Yoona also chimed in.

"Taeyeon unnie is such a homebody. All she does all day is run errands and stay in the dorm with us. She hardly ever goes out. How could she possibly have a chance to date someone?"

"Unless it was Taeyeon unnie's mom who secretly arranged a blind date for her in Jeonju."

Im Yoona stroked her chin and thought for a moment, then shook her head.

"That's impossible!"

Seeing that the two of them had already lost interest, Sunny still tried to find some clues.

"That's still not right. Use your brains! Given Kim Tae-yeon's personality, would she really care where a new friend is going tomorrow? That's clearly an implication!"

"I bet my pride there's something fishy going on here!"

"What's going on?"

Suddenly, a murderous aura emanated from not far away!

"Lee! Soon! Kyu!"
