Peninsula: Please, I only want to talk about ordinary people.

Chapter 65 PDnim is a milk boo boo! Not once!

In the Kansai International Airport terminal, Mina, pulling her suitcase, bids farewell to Yo and Sachiko.

Mingyi Yang, with a stern face, gripped her luggage handle tightly and refused to let go.

"Didn't you say you'd stay until tomorrow? Why are you leaving today?"

Mina's eyes darted away, and her voice carried a hint of guilt.

"I have something to do back home, otherwise I'd have to go to Jeju Island to film a music video as soon as I get back, the time is so tight~"

She was originally supposed to go back tomorrow, and the company had approved it for tomorrow. However, during the phone call with Jiang Yongtai the night before last, she let her heart soften and accidentally revealed that she would be going back the day after tomorrow. Fortunately, when he pressed her for the flight time, she stubbornly refused to give a specific time.

I'm leaving a day early since Jiang Yongtai doesn't know what time I'll land anyway. I'll sneak into his house during his work hours and surprise him!

When Sachiko saw the shifty look in her daughter's eyes whenever she lied, she immediately understood.

A playful smile appeared on her face. She reached out and pried her husband's hand off the luggage rack, giving him a disdainful look.

"If you miss your daughter, why don't you just wait for her first stage performance after this comeback?"

"Speaking of which, it's been a long time since we've been to Seoul. It would be nice to visit Sana and Momo."

"Okay, let me know when you're coming, and I'll pick you up."

Mina immediately hugged her mother's arm, tilted her head, and rested it on her mother's shoulder affectionately.

Sachiko Nai smiled, turned her head, and whispered in her ear, lowering her voice so that only the two of them could hear.

"If you're busy, that's fine. You can have 'Yongtai-san' pick us up~"

"Ogasan!"

Mina's ears instantly flushed red, and she gently patted her mother's arm, not giving up.

Sachiko Nai smiled smugly.

Mingyang, unaware of the whispered conversation between the mother and daughter, was already calculating whether he would be able to rest.

He is already making preparations to go to Seoul.

"Alright, it's about time, let's go."

Sachiko Nai tucked the stray hairs that were falling over her shoulders behind her ears.

Minami waved to her father, "Otosan, I'm leaving."

"Okay, text me when you arrive."

Meiyo waved goodbye to her with lingering reluctance.

Mina smiled at her parents, then turned and pulled her suitcase into the security checkpoint.

After passing through the gate, she walked briskly towards the boarding gate, already planning how to get to his house fastest when she arrived in Seoul. A smile slowly crept onto her lips.

Yongtai-san, your Nan-chan is coming back soon~

Jiang Yongtai glanced at Minatozaki Sana, who was sitting on a small stool next to him, pretending to practice her script but constantly stealing glances at him while trying to suppress a laugh.

The staff around them were busy adjusting the lights and sound, and no one paid any attention to them.

He took half a step closer to her, his voice muffled as it came from under his mask.

"Saka, can you stop laughing?"

Seeing that she had been caught red-handed, Sana Minatozaki immediately turned her gaze back to the script, holding the paper high to cover her entire face.

"PDnim, am I laughing? Please don't disturb me, I'm writing down my script."

Jiang Yongtai sighed, noticing she was holding the script upside down. He pulled his mask up further and turned to look at her.

The Gidle-themed backdrop being set up in the center of the venue for guest Zhao Meiyan was ignored.

Sana Minato lowered the script a little, revealing her eyes as she glanced at him again.

This idiot, he said he didn't want to see the wound, and he really doesn't let himself see it?

She knew, of course, how deep she had bitten last night. At most, it would scab over in half a day; it was impossible for it to heal completely.

She wanted to use this opportunity to provoke him again, and maybe even get a chance to say something sarcastic, but he just put on a mask.

But at least you're obedient!

Sana Minato chuckled to herself, finally turning the script over and starting to seriously memorize the process.

Jiang Yongtai breathed a sigh of relief when he realized that the gaze that had been clinging to him had finally left.

He didn't want to wear a mask today, but there was a small swelling in the middle of his lower lip, covered with a dark red scab. It was obvious that he had been bitten, and no other excuse would work.

He raised his wrist to check the time: 8:30 PM.

Mina said she was returning from Hyogo today, but she doesn't know what time her flight was.

He had originally planned to meet her after the recording was finished.

But now that he has such blatant evidence of "cheating" on his lips, there's no way he'll be able to see her tonight.

He thought about why Sana Minatozaki "kissed" him last night for a whole night before he finally figured it out.

Her questions to him weren't so much out of hatred, but rather because, like him, she had never truly let go.

It turns out that their breakup was just a misunderstanding caused by Tai Zaiping.

His self-righteous breakup was never valid in her eyes from beginning to end.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have said "I haven't agreed yet" to his face last night, and asked him to "understand" her again. If he changed two words, wouldn't that mean he had to pursue her again?

But he had just confessed to Mina in Kobe Port, how could he possibly go back to chasing after Sana?

It's an undeniable fact that he likes Mina now; otherwise, he wouldn't have chased her all the way to Japan.

Sana Minatozaki —

The room in the apartment where her things were still kept, and the anniversary code on the door lock that hadn't been changed yet, were all evidence that he couldn't forget her!

Last night, as I tossed and turned in bed, a thought did flash through my mind—a thought that most men have fantasized about—

However, he threw it out immediately.

Mina and Sana, two such proud people, can they "get along peacefully"? How come?!

The two faces lingered in his mind all night.

In the end, he chose to put it aside for the time being, as he really didn't know what to do.

I can't tell Nan-chan that Sana wants to get back together, nor can I tell Sana that he and Nan-chan are practically a couple now.

We have to keep it from both sides until he comes up with a solution!

It's impossible for him to give up Mina!

This girl has left too many marks on his heart, and he can never let her go!

As for Sana Minatozaki—we'll see.

Perhaps after a while she'll figure it out herself; last night was just a moment of emotion, and she'll understand the principle that a broken mirror cannot be mended.

Suddenly, the toes of a pair of high-heeled shoes appeared right under his nose.

"Animhaseyo, PDnim~"

Jiang Yongtai paused for a moment, then looked up.

Zhao Meiyan stood in front of him with a warm smile on her face.

She hadn't removed her stage makeup yet, with a thin black eyeliner drawn at the outer corner of her eyes, and silver glitter scattered above her cheekbones, shimmering under the studio lights.

He casually threw on a beige hoodie and black sweatpants, his hands nervously tugging at the hem of the hoodie.

"Miyeon, you've come."

He snapped out of his daze and a smile appeared on his face.

Zhao Meiyan smiled and bowed to him, her single ponytail drawing an arc in the air.

"Yes, PDnim~ I rushed over as soon as our Music Core schedule ended!"

"Thanks for your hard work. By the way, congratulations on getting four first-place finishes this time. Tomorrow is the final exam, right?"

"PDnim actually knew? Thank you!"

Zhao Meiyan covered her mouth in surprise, her eyes wide open.

Jiang Yongtai smiled, waved his hand, and winked at her.

"I'm a fan of yours too. Even though I only supported you once, it's normal for me to follow your news."

"Yes! Thank you, PDnim!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Meiyan burst into laughter, the glitter on her eyes shining even brighter.

Hearing this from someone she liked made her so excited she almost jumped up on the spot.

Yuqi was right, we should invite PDnim to the music show performance!

Now that PDnim is already a fan of Naibo, how far is it from becoming her solo fan? Go, Cho Miyeon, you can do it!

She silently cheered herself up, and just as she opened her mouth to say something, a sweet yet slightly playful voice suddenly drifted over from the side.

"PDnim, how come I didn't know you were Naibobo? Aren't you Zeronce? You're cheating on me right in front of me?!"

Sana Minatozaki stood up from the stool at some point, her script rolled up and held in her hand. She tilted her head and looked at Kang Young-tae.

There was no real smile in her crescent-shaped eyes as she walked towards the two of them.

She looked up the moment Zhao Meiyan called Jiang Yongtai's name for the first time.

I've heard of Gidle's Zhao Meiyan, a guest on this episode. She's a friend of the same age and very beautiful.

She was about to get up and go over to say hello when she saw that the two of them were already chatting.

Jiang Yongtai spoke to Zhao Meiyan in a relaxed manner, his voice even carrying a hint of laughter.

I've never seen him like this since we met again.

Sana Minatozaki's eyebrows slowly furrowed, and her lips pouted.

Looking at Zhao Meiyan's radiant smile, she felt inexplicably annoyed.

Aren't you a rookie idol? You've only been in the industry for a few years, and you're already talking to the PD like that with that big smile on your face. That's not how you radiate charm!

She knew she was jealous, but she didn't intend to deny it!

Zhao Meiyan turned her head in the direction of the voice, recognized it as Minatozaki Sana, and her eyes lit up instantly.

She screamed and, under the astonished gazes of Minatozaki Sana and Jiang Yongtai, rushed over and hugged her tightly.

"Sana-senpai-nim! I really like you!"

Sana Minatozaki stood there, arms outstretched, her expression shifting from a composed and confident demeanor to a blank and bewildered look.

She looked down at the girl who was hugging her so warmly, then looked up at Jiang Yongtai, her eyes filled with "What's going on? Help me!"

Jiang Yongtai, standing to the side, couldn't help but burst out laughing.

He shrugged at Sana's pleading gaze, showing no intention of intervening.

Zhao Meiyan only snapped out of her daze when she heard the laughter, realizing what she had just done. She quickly let go of his hand, her face as red as if she had just come out of a sauna. She took a step back and bowed repeatedly to Minatozaki Sana.

"I'm sorry, senpai-nim! I was too excited—"

After apologizing, he secretly raised his eyes, looking at her timidly yet with bright eyes.

When Sana Minatozaki met those blinking eyes, the jealousy and question that had been stuck in her throat were all swallowed back down.

She couldn't help but laugh and gently patted Zhao Meiyan's shoulder.

"It's okay, Miyeon, thank you for liking me~"

I've also been following Miyeon's fandom. The "0hmygod" stage performance was amazing. Congratulations on winning four number one spots!

"Really?!"

Zhao Meiyan's eyes lit up again.

The slight embarrassment from her overly enthusiastic behavior vanished instantly. She grabbed Sana's hands and took another half step forward, almost rushing into Sana's arms again.

"Thank you, senior! I'll definitely keep an eye on your comeback!"

Sana Minatozaki was so touched by her unreserved enthusiasm that she felt good too.

This Zhao Meiyan is really cute and sincere. She doesn't hide her thoughts at all. No wonder she's an ENFP like me!

The way she smiled at Jiang Yongtai just now was probably just a habit, and I was just overthinking it.

The two of them started chatting as if no one else was around, from music show performances to what to eat during comeback season to avoid a puffy face the next day.

Jiang Yongtai, who had caused this little incident, was completely ignored.

Not far away, Park Soo-bin peeked out from behind the monitor, mouthed something to him, and pointed at Cho Mi-yeon.

"Tell her to change her clothes, filming is about to start!"

Jiang Yongtai nodded and turned to the two people who were chatting enthusiastically.

"Excuse me for interrupting you two, we're about to start recording. Miyeon, go change your clothes first."

Zhao Meiyan paused for a moment, looked down at her hoodie and sweatpants, and blushed again.

"Oh, I'm so sorry, PDnim! I'll go right now!"

She turned around and waved to Sana Minatozaki, her face beaming with barely suppressed excitement, before scurrying off to the rest area.

He ran towards the direction of the room.

Being able to see two people I like in one day is the perfect itinerary!

But—didn’t Sana-senpai just say that PDnim is 0nce?

As she ran, she wrinkled her nose, then shook her head vigorously, dismissing the small doubt from her mind.

So what if PDnim was Zero before? He said his first support was for Gidle, so he is the purest milk boo boo!

Zhao Meiyan put on a smile again, pushed open the door to the dressing room, went inside, opened the recording outfit her manager had brought, and began to change.

After Zhao Meiyan ran away, only the two of them remained for the time being.

Sana Minato turned around to look at Yong-tae Kang, her eyes slowly narrowing, a half-smile playing on her lips.

"PDnim was laughing so hard just now~ Was my expression when Miyeon hugged me that funny?"

Jiang Yongtai pulled his mask up a little higher and said seriously, "No, it's just that the look on your face when you were pleading for help just now, Saka, was exactly the same as when you were causing trouble in the lounge and got ganged up on by Nayeon and the others~"

"—You actually still remember that kind of thing?"

Sana Minatozaki paused for a moment, then glared at him.

Jiang Yongtai shrugged and replied matter-of-factly, "You know I have a good memory."

"snort!"

Sana Minatozaki rolled her eyes at him, paused for a moment, and then spoke.

"Um."

"He's a sincere person, and seems quite warm to everyone."

"It should be."

"So I might have misunderstood her earlier~"

Jiang Yongtai turned his head to look at her, but she turned her face away and tapped the script lightly twice in her palm.

"—What's the misunderstanding?"

"It's nothing~"

She pursed her lips, not intending to tell him that she was jealous.

If this had happened when they were dating, Jiang Yongtai would have known just by looking at her, but now—

Sana Minatozaki discovered that she really liked his current awkwardness.

Seeing that she didn't want to talk about it, Jiang Yongtai didn't press her for details.

The two were silent for a moment, then Minatozaki Sana turned back, her gaze slowly moving down from his mask to the corner of his mouth, a hint of mischief in her voice.

"How's the wound?"

"It's okay, it's scabbed over, it should be better tomorrow."

"That's good."

She stared at him, who never dared to look her in the eye, and a smile played on her lips.

I glanced around and saw that the staff were all busy adjusting their equipment and no one was paying attention to this area.

She took another half step forward, stood on tiptoe, and whispered in his ear, her warm breath tickling him.

"When you got home last night, did you remember my scent?"

Jiang Yongtai froze for a moment, looked down and met her eyes which were flashing with a mischievous smile, and quickly took a step back.

"Are you... are you crazy? Saying this here?!"

Sana Minatozaki was extremely pleased with his flustered reaction.

That's how it should be! Didn't he say he loved her last night? Why is he just pretending today and not showing any affection at all?

She was secretly hoping that Jiang Yongtai would treat her differently today when she left home.

As a result, aside from saying "thank you for your hard work" when handing her the script, he also gave her a warning look with his eyes when she was secretly glancing at him, telling her to "keep your distance."

Now she finally felt like she had won a round!

She blinked innocently, turned her face back, pouted, and asked curiously, "What did I say, PDnim~?"

Before Jiang Yongtai could even speak, she had already turned her back and walked towards the center of the venue in her high heels.

She took a few steps, then turned back and gave him a sickeningly sweet smile.

"By the way, PDnim~ after the recording is over, remember to explain to me properly when you turned into a cute little bob~"

Jiang Yongtai stood there, watching her light and agile figure, and swallowed hard.

I've already decided that after recording ends, I'll either sneak straight home or hide in the editing room —

I absolutely cannot let her catch me tonight!

He knew that smile she gave him all too well when she turned her head just now—

"You can't escape, Jiang Yongtai~"
