Peninsula: I created the golden age of girl groups

"Yes! I am Jiang Yuhe." Jiang Yuhe immediately stood up upon hearing the voice.

Looking in the direction of the sound, he saw a young girl who looked quite young standing in the distance, her hands nervously clasped together, looking at him uncertainly.

"May I ask who you are...?"

"Ah! It really is Oppa!"

The girl's eyes lit up instantly. She took small steps forward and explained shyly, "I'm your fan! I was just passing by and saw you from afar. You looked a lot like me, but I wasn't sure, so... so I took the liberty of coming over to bother you..."

As she spoke, she hurriedly rummaged through her small bag and pulled out a notebook and pen, handing them to Jiang Yuhe with both hands.

"Um... Oppa, could you please sign your autograph for me?"

My...fans?

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuhe was slightly taken aback, a strange feeling flashing through his heart.

The girl seemed to notice his dazed expression and quickly added, "I started liking you from 'X-MAN'! I think you're really interesting on the show, quick-witted, and very genuine!"

She paused, as if remembering something, her eyes brightening even more: "Ah! And also! I watched 'Infinite Challenge' a while ago! Oppa said on the show that he was going to challenge his acting skills and film a drama, right?"

"Although...although some people online have said some unpleasant things, please don't take it to heart! Keep going! I will always support Oppa!"

"Thank you. Thank you so much."

Hearing this sincere encouragement, Jiang Yuhe felt a warmth in his heart.

He quickly took the notebook and pen, carefully signed his name, and sincerely thanked them, saying, "Thank you for your support. I will work hard."

"Um!"

The girl took the autograph book, her smile unstoppable, and hesitated before asking, "Um... Oppa, could we take another photo together? Just one!"

"sure."

Jiang Yuhe readily agreed, then turned to Taeyeon, who was still trying to make herself as inconspicuous as possible, and asked, "Taeyeon, could you please take a picture for us?"

Taeyeon, whose name was mentioned, twitched noticeably at the corner of her eye, instinctively wanting to refuse.

However, considering that Jiang Yuhe still had something on him, he simply said "Yes" and silently took the phone from the girl.

The image freezes.

The girl took the phone, checked the photos again, and her smile grew even brighter. "Thank you so much! And thank you to this unnie too!"

Then, she hesitated again, and after thinking it over, she whispered, "Um... Oppa, I'll upload the photos to the fan site and share them with everyone! Oppa, if you have time, you can also come to the fan site and interact with everyone! Although there aren't many people in the fan site yet, everyone here is genuinely here because they like Oppa!"

"He Station?"

Jiang Yuhe was stunned for a moment, then realized that this was probably his personal fan site.

He couldn't help but marvel once again at the power of South Korean fan culture.

Even someone as insignificant as myself in the variety show industry now has my own fan site.

"Okay, I'll go check it out when I have the chance. Thank you again for your support." He quickly thanked them again.

The girl nodded contentedly, then turned her gaze to Kim Tae-yeon beside her and cautiously asked, "By the way, Oppa, is this unnie your...girlfriend?"

"Huh? No, no!"

Jiang Yuhe chuckled upon hearing this, then quickly shook his head in denial, "She's just... a close younger sister. We happened to run into each other nearby, so we grabbed a late-night snack together."

"oh--"

The girl drawled out her words, giving a knowing look, then glanced at the time before saying apologetically, "Sorry to have kept Oppa and Unnie so long! It's getting late, Oppa should get some rest too! Please keep up the good work! Fighting!"

After seeing off the excited fans, Jiang Yuhe checked the time and said to Kim Tae-yeon, "Let's go, it's getting late, I'll take you home."

"Oh? No, no, it's too much trouble for you, senior."

Kim Tae-yeon waved her hands repeatedly in refusal, "I can go back by myself, it's easy to take a taxi or bus here..."

"It's so late, it's not safe for a girl like you to go home alone."

Jiang Yuhe interrupted her, insisting, "Although Seoul is quite safe, it's getting late, so it's always good to be cautious. Don't refuse, let's go."

Kim Tae-yeon's personality wasn't particularly strong to begin with, and Kang Woo-hyuk's attitude was extremely assertive.

So she stopped refusing and whispered, "Then... I'll trouble you, senior."

The two then got up and left the food stall.

Kang Woo-hyuk walked in front, while Kim Tae-yeon followed half a step behind.

Night had fallen, and the wind along the Han River seemed a bit cooler than before.

Kim Tae-yeon had snuck out, and since she was only wearing a thin hoodie, she couldn't help but shrink her neck when the night wind blew.

"senior……"

After thinking for a moment, she couldn't help but ask, "Which way are we going? It seems like we've been walking for quite a while."

She initially thought Jiang Yuhe was going to take her to hail a taxi or to a nearby bus stop, but looking at the direction, it didn't seem quite right.

"My car is parked in the parking lot of the Conrad Hotel, which is not far ahead."

Jiang Yuhe turned around to explain, but didn't stop walking, "At this time, it's not easy to get a taxi here, so it's faster for me to drive you back."

"Conrad Hotel?"

Upon hearing this, Kim Tae-yeon paused in her tracks.

That's a well-known high-end hotel, and the prices are quite high.

She instinctively wanted to ask Jiang Yuhe why his car was parked there, but when the words came out, she felt it would be a bit abrupt.

After all... the two weren't that close, and this was only their second meeting.

"Oh, I was just meeting with some friends over there tonight, so I parked my car there."

Jiang Yuhe seemed to sense her confusion and added casually, his gaze drifting towards the increasingly gloomy sky in the distance.

The next second, a gust of wind swept by, bringing an even deeper chill.

Jiang Yuhe looked up at the sky. He didn't know when, but thick, dark clouds had gathered and obscured the moonlight, making the sky as black as ink.

"Oh no, it looks like it's really going to rain heavily, we have to hurry!" Jiang Yuhe said.

The two hurriedly started jogging, but the rain seemed to come faster and more heavily than they had imagined.

They hadn't run far when large raindrops, carried by the wind, began to pelt down, instantly weaving a torrential downpour that submerged the entire city.

The strong wind, carrying raindrops, stung people's cheeks.

Kim Tae-yeon, who is petite and slender, was even more unsteady in the fierce wind. She stumbled and was almost blown over.

"Be careful!"

Jiang Yuhe reacted quickly and grabbed her arm without thinking twice!

Without hesitation, he took off his coat, stretched it out, and held it over their heads.

With his other hand, he forcefully supported the swaying Kim Tae-yeon, almost half-carrying her, as they trudged towards the parking lot.

When the two finally found the car and got in, they were already soaked to the bone.

Rainwater slid down her hair, quickly spreading into dark patches inside the car.

"I'm so sorry, senpai... I got your car wet too..."

Kim Tae-yeon trembled and curled up, her lips turning pale.

"Never mind those things for now."

Jiang Yuhe wiped the rain off his face and looked at Taeyeon, who looked pitiful, and couldn't help but find it a little funny.

I quickly started the car and turned the heater to its maximum.

The warm air from the heater slightly dispelled the chill.

Seeing this, he leaned over to the back seat, rummaged through his luggage, and pulled out a clean spare jacket, handing it to Kim Tae-yeon. "Put this on first, so you don't catch a cold. If your clothes are wet... try to wring them out a bit, it'll make you more comfortable."

He had just returned from nursing home, and some daily necessities and changes of clothes were still in the car, which came in handy.

"that……"

Kim Tae-yeon took the coat, but didn't put it on immediately. Instead, she lowered her head, her ears turning red.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Yuhe didn't react for a moment.

"The senior is still in the car... I... I can't really do it either." Kim Tae-yeon's voice became even softer, and her head drooped even lower.

Jiang Yuhe was taken aback at first, then realized what was going on and said awkwardly, "Ah...it's my fault. Here, you deal with it first, I'll get out of the car and wait for you, and I'll come back later."

After saying that, he found an umbrella in the car, opened it, and rushed into the rain.

As she watched Kang Woo-hyuk's figure disappear into the rain, Kim Tae-yeon felt the faint fragrance emanating from the coat on her hand.

Kim Tae-yeon couldn't help but lower her head. The heat in her ears didn't subside; instead, it began to spread to her neck and cheeks.

My heart is a little confused.

My heart is pounding.
