Peninsula: The idol by the bedside refreshes randomly.

Chapter 112 The younger sister was ready to fight to the death, why did the older sister surrender first?

Across from her, Jessica, who was also eating, saw this and quickly raised her hand to block her plate, pursing her lips in disgust.

"Be careful while you eat. If you feel cold, turn up the air conditioning and put on a jacket."

"I'm not cold."

Krystal shook her head and continued the previous topic.

"So Chen Ran is now living in the same house as Taeyeon unnie, and that house is renovated every month, right?"

She finished filming her last few scenes on set that morning and rushed back immediately.

She had already heard the general situation from Jessica on the phone over the past two days, and now she was asking for details.

Jessica nodded: "Yes."

"You said it was Taeyeon unnie who contacted you first, right?"

Jessica paused in her chewing and nodded.

"Tsk, what a pity, I missed it, otherwise I could have gone to see Taeyeon unnie with you, unnie."

Jessica glanced at her: "I think you just want to watch the show."

Krystal smiled and didn't deny it.

Suddenly remembering something, she reached for her phone and dialed a number in her contacts.

But soon a robot notification popped up saying the other party was out of service.

"I still can't get through to Chen Ran on my phone."

"It must be because you didn't go back to that house."

Krystal nodded: "Probably."

She picked up her spoon and continued eating.

"By the way, where did you go the night before last? Why didn't you answer my phone?"

"Cough cough..."

Jessica suddenly choked.

Krystal quickly grabbed two tissues and handed them over.

"Eat slowly, unnie."

Jessica waved her hand, took the tissue, but her gaze was somewhat unfocused.

The night before last, she and Kim Tae-yeon were first busy fighting over who got to use the automatic transmission, and then they sped onto the highway and watched the night view for more than half an hour.

I was so dizzy and lightheaded, I felt like I was going to fly, and I didn't even notice KrystaI's phone call.

"I had a few drinks at Chen Ran's house the night before last. I was already asleep when you called."

"Oh, so you didn't even call me back."

"Didn't I reply to your message?"

Jessica kept her head down as she ate, avoiding eye contact with her younger sister for fear of being seen through.

Krystal's eyes flickered.

She knew her unnie wasn't telling the truth, but she didn't press the matter.

"Sigh, what a pity, it all happened to coincide with my filming, otherwise I could have gone with you."

"7

'

""

Jessica nearly choked again, and the indescribable scene from that night involuntarily surfaced in her mind.

"Where are you going? Why do you have to join in every little thing?" Her voice suddenly rose a few decibels.

Krystal was slightly taken aback.

What's wrong? She just wanted to go out for a meal, why is she reacting so strongly?

Jessica realized she had overreacted, but she didn't explain and continued eating with her head down.

"I need to find some time to ask Taeyeon unnie to open the door for me. These days when I can't contact Chen Ran, I feel like my life has lost a lot of fun."

Jessica pouted: "Go tell him yourself."

"I'll say it, it's not like I don't have a way to contact you."

The two ate their meal in silence for a while, when KrystaI suddenly frowned again.

"Wait a minute, if the property only reconnects once a month, doesn't that mean it'll have to reconnect again in a little over two weeks?"

Jessica paused, spoon in her hand, and nodded silently.

This is also the biggest problem facing her and Kim Tae-yeon right now.

Nobody knows if the house will be connected next month.

If they don't connect, they might never see Chen Ran again.

If they continue the connection, they won't know who they'll connect to next.

KrystaI pondered, "Judging from the current situation, if the houses continue to connect, it's very likely that they'll connect with people around you, like Taeyeon unnie."

Jessica was slightly taken aback.

This is indeed a new idea.

KrystaI continued her analysis: "If this assumption holds true, then our selection range will be much smaller. For example, Yoona unnie, whom you've been seeing frequently recently, is a very likely candidate."

Jessica's eyes lit up instantly.

Yes, if KrystaI's assumption is true, then Yoona is indeed the most likely candidate.

"Of course, this is just my guess, but I think it's at least a direction to take."

Krystal poked at the rice in the plate with her spoon, then scooped up a spoonful and put it in her mouth.

As she chewed, she suddenly widened her eyes and looked at Jessica.

"Unnie, do you think it's possible that the next person connected to the house will be me? It's possible, isn't it? I'm the closest person to you."

Jessica paused for a moment.

If the house is connected to Krystal...

Does that mean KrystaI will be sharing a bed with Chen Ran?

Across from her, Krystal had already started making connections.

"If the house is connected to my home next month, wouldn't I be able to open my eyes one morning and find Chen Ran lying next to me?"

"Then I'll live with Chen Ran for a month, experience what it's like to be a landlord, and even be able to manipulate you like Taeyeon unnie..."

As Krystal spoke, she inexplicably became excited.

She looked at her unnie, only to be met with a cold, deathly stare.

"cough..."

The excitement quickly faded, and Krystal hurriedly lowered her head to eat.

"I was just making a hypothetical assumption, it might not be me," she muttered to herself.

"snort"

Jessica gave a soft hum, but her mind was already racing with thoughts about it.

If the house is indeed connected to KrystaI's, then she will definitely move into KrystaI's house that very day.

She couldn't possibly let KrystaI and Chen Ran, a single man and woman, live together for a month.

but...

If KrystaI's guess about who will be connecting the house is correct, shouldn't she and Kim Tae-yeon talk to Chung-ah about it beforehand?

"So you guys are going to Japan for a concert in a couple of days."

Chen Ran swallowed the food in his mouth and responded to Park Jiyeon's words.

"Yes."

Park Jiyeon nodded: "There will be several events, lasting until the end of July. For the next month, I'll be traveling back and forth between the Peninsula and Japan."

She then looked at Chen Ran and smiled, "Eun-jung unnie will also be acting in your script, oppa, which will be even more tiring. Please ask oppa to take care of unnie a little while on set."

"Okay, I will."

Chen Ran nodded with a smile, but his mind was on something else entirely.

When he used the future phone to investigate Liu Xiaoying, he found out that she and her sister Liu Huaying had framed Tara's 80s teammates, which led to the replacement of the actress.

At that time, he followed up on the entire process of the Tara 80s incident.

I remember the trigger for this whole thing happened during this Japanese concert, which was at the end of July.

Chen Ran's light flickered slightly.

It's definitely not okay to say it directly; how can you talk about things that haven't happened yet?

Moreover, Park Jiyeon and Ham Eunjung don't have enough trust in him yet, so let's look for another opportunity later. There's still more than a month to go.

Suddenly, a cell phone rang.

Chen Ran took out his phone.

Choi Jin-ri, who was taking small bites of matcha pudding next to her, glanced at it subconsciously.

The name "Xiuyan" came into view.

The girl subconsciously pursed her lips slightly.

It's Jessica Unnie.

and...

Oppa and Jessica unnie are already this close?

Soo-yeon, so that's how oppa usually calls Jessica unnie.

That's a term only people who are very close to Jessica can use.

Suddenly, a complex emotion, which I couldn't quite describe as fear or panic, welled up from the bottom of my heart.

Chen Ran looked up and said, "I'm going to take this call."

The group nodded and fell silent.

Chen Ran got up, walked to a corner, and answered the phone.

"Hey, Soo-yeon."

"Chen Ran, are you busy?" Jessica Jung's sweet voice rang out.

"No, I'm eating."

Chen Ran glanced at Jung Soo-jung sitting there and smiled, "Soo-jung is here too."

"Krystal's here too?!"

"Yes, we bumped into each other by chance in my family's restaurant."

"Oh, I called to tell you that Taeyeon's dad's medical results came back. He does have a heart problem, but the doctor said it was fortunate that it was discovered early. As long as he takes his medication on time and pays attention to his health, it shouldn't be a big problem. Remember to tell your wife about it and put her mind at ease."

"Okay, I understand."

Sitting in her seat, Choi Jin-ri glanced furtively at Chen Ran's back, gradually becoming lost in inexplicable emotions, her pupils slowly losing focus.

Suddenly, a gentle voice rang in my ears.

"What's wrong, Zhenli? Are you feeling unwell?"

Chen Ran had already sat back down in his seat at some point, looking at her with concern.

Choi Jin-ri's eyes trembled slightly, and a warm feeling suddenly welled up in her heart, dispelling those inexplicable emotions.

She smiled and shook her head slightly.

"It's nothing, oppa, I was just a little full and was spacing out."

"7

"Oh, then let's not eat, let's just sit and chat."

Seeing that her expression didn't seem fake, Chen Ran felt relieved.

"Okay~ I understand~"

Choi Jin-ri replied softly, her mind involuntarily reminiscing about everything that had happened since she met Chen Ran.

From taking the initiative to approach her when they first met, to offering help when they encountered antis, and then to silently accompanying her on the beach in Busan.

As she pondered, the girl slowly clenched her hands on her lap, a sudden surge of competitive spirit welling up within her.

Or perhaps... it's a rebellious spirit.

So what if Jessica met oppa first?

So what if Jessica is closer to oppa right now?

Oppa definitely has feelings for her, so I'm not necessarily going to lose.

Jung Soo-jung, who had been secretly observing Choi Jin-ri, noticed the change in her expression and sighed inwardly.

Unnie, if you don't step up your game, you might actually lose to Sulli.

Half an hour later, a pleasant lunch came to an end.

The group walked out of the private room and headed towards the door.

"Jinri, Soojung, how are you getting back to the dorm? Should I take you?"

Choi Jin-ri shook her head: "No need, oppa. We can just take Ji-eun's van back. You have something to do later, so you can go ahead and do it."

"Oh, that works too."

Park Jiyeon smiled and put her arm around Lee Ji-eun's shoulder.

"Oh my god, Ji-eun really worked hard today, treating us to a meal and acting as our driver."

Lee Ji-eun rolled her eyes and turned her head away, indicating that she didn't want to talk to her.

The interaction between the two made Chen Ran and the other two laugh.

The five people walked forward chatting and laughing, unaware that a cell phone had somehow appeared around the corner behind them and was pointed at them.

"Unnie, why are you filming this?"

"It's such a coincidence that we bumped into each other, let's take a few pictures first, just in case we need them when we're dealing with Park Jiyeon and the others."

After parting ways with Chen Ran, Choi Jin-ri and Jung Soo-jung got into Lee Ji-eun's van.

After sitting for a while, Krystal Jung took out her phone and sent a message to her unnie.

She briefly talked about having lunch with Chen Ran, emphasizing that Cui Zhenli was also there, and about their interactions at the table.

She wanted Jessica Jung to take it seriously.

A few minutes later, Jessica Jung replied to the message.

【I understand, but don't worry about Shirley and Chen Ran's affairs. You also don't need to keep an eye on Shirley's activities for me anymore.】

After reading the news, Krystal Jung was a little dumbfounded.

What?!

Just give up?!

So what about me just now, shamelessly going out of my way to freeload and help you get firsthand information?

Woman, you weren't like this just a couple of days ago.

Is this a sign that they're giving up and admitting defeat?

Krystal Jung furrowed her brows, looking somewhat puzzled.

The younger sister was ready to fight to the death, so why did the older sister surrender first?
