Peninsula: The idol by the bedside refreshes randomly.

About twenty minutes later.

Chen Ran's car stopped in a corner near the film set.

Chen Ran shifted the car into Park and turned to look at Ham Eun-jung, who was still fast asleep in the passenger seat.

"Eun-jung... Eun-jung..."

"Um..."

Ham Eun-jung's eyelids twitched, and then she slowly opened her eyes.

The first thing you see is Chen Ran's face.

Sunlight streamed through the windshield and fell on Chen Ran's face.

Ham Eun-jung opened her eyes groggily, her vision somewhat blurry, and accidentally created a Tyndall effect, as if the light was shrouding Chen Ran in a halo.

Her eyes flickered slightly as she looked at Chen Ran's face, momentarily lost in thought.

"That face is really handsome." Ham Eun-jung, who wasn't a sucker for good looks, thought to herself at that moment.

"Eun-jung?" "Hmm?"

Ham Eun-jung responded, then realized what was happening, quickly sat up straight, turned her head slightly to look elsewhere, and raised her hand to scratch her neat short hair.

"We've...we've arrived, right?"

Chen Ran nodded: "We're here. You get out of the car first, I'll go to the parking lot."

"Oh, okay, thank you."

Ham Eun-jung thanked him, opened the car door, got out, and turned to walk towards the entrance of the film set.

Chen Ran then restarted the car and drove to the parking lot.

What neither of them noticed was that a pair of eyes in a car not far away had witnessed everything.

A few minutes later, Chen Ran walked into the film crew.

"Screenwriter."

"Screenwriter."

The staff members he encountered on the way all bowed and greeted him. Chen Ran smiled and nodded in response to each one.

Hearing the greetings from the crew, Ham Eun-jung, who was sitting in the actors' rest area with her head down reading the script, looked up.

But they met Chen Ran's gaze.

Chen Ran smiled slightly at her, and Xian Enjing returned the smile.

Their eyes immediately met.

Chen Ran continued walking forward, while Ham Eun-jung continued to look down at the script.

The moment she lowered her head, Ham Eun-jung suddenly paused, startled.

The eye contact I had with Chen Ran just now felt a bit like a young couple on set subtly showing affection.

Just like in some idol dramas, couples who are hiding their relationship from the outside world were clearly sleeping in the same bed at home the night before, and their passion was burning brightly, but the next morning when they arrived at the film set, they automatically became ordinary friends and colleagues.

Then they would occasionally communicate in ways that only the two of them knew, subtly showing their affection in public.

To be honest, this way of secretly dating, hiding it from everyone and doing it under everyone's noses, does have a strange sense of excitement and exhilaration.

Thinking of this, even Ham Eun-jung felt a thrilling sweetness well up inside her. But she quickly realized what was happening and shook her head to dispel the idol drama plot that had crossed her mind.

Why are you even projecting your own feelings onto this?

She and Chen Ran weren't a couple secretly dating.

Although she did stay at Chen Ran's house last night, she did not share a bed with him.

but...

She did seem to have slept in Chen Ran's bed last night.

The bedroom was pieced together, and so was the bed. Da Longzai slept on her half, while she slept on Chen Ran's half.

Last night, when she lay down and covered herself with the blanket, she immediately smelled a pleasant scent of sandalwood.

And because of the shock she experienced last night, she couldn't fall asleep, which caused her to keep smelling the scent of agarwood. Even when she drifted off to sleep, she could still smell the scent of agarwood.

Ham Eun-jung suddenly frowned.

Could this be the same scent that Xiaolongzai had secretly told her about, the pleasant scent Chen Ran smelled like?

She searched online for a long time afterward, hoping to find a perfume with a similar scent. For some reason, thinking about this made Ham Eun-jung feel a strange sense of guilt.

The younger sister was desperately searching for a substitute scent, while I, on the other hand, indulged in smelling it all night long last night.

—Jiyeon, I'm sorry.

Suddenly, Ham Eun-jung shook her head again.

Pshaw, what is all this nonsense?

It's as if she really did something to wrong the little dragon cub.

Taking a deep breath, Ham Eun-jung suppressed all the inexplicable thoughts in her mind.

She subconsciously glanced up at Chen Ran sitting not far away, then immediately looked away and focused on reading the script.

A few minutes later, greetings rang out from the crew one after another; it was director Li Yingfu who had arrived.

Li Yingfu nodded in response to the greeting and finally sat down next to Chen Ran.

"Good morning, Brother Yingfu," Chen Ran greeted with a smile.

"Good morning, Xiao Ran," Li Yingfu replied with a smile. Please remember the only official website address for this novel: www.deqixs.org. This is the only official website; other websites may be discontinued at any time.

After exchanging greetings, Chen Ran continued to look down at the scenes to be filmed that day, but unexpectedly, Li Yingfu suddenly leaned over, glanced at a spot not far away, and whispered:

"Xiao Ran, are you and Eun-jung from T-ara?"

Chen Ran looked up, blinking in confusion. "What?"

"That's the kind of relationship we have."

Li Yingfu extended his two thumbs, then pressed them together and twisted them forcefully.

"I just happened to see her outside; she got out of your car."

Li Yingfu said that he saw it, so you shouldn't hide it from me.

"But don't worry, I just checked, there's no one else in that place except me, no one else will know about it."

Upon hearing this, Chen Ran understood; so he had been seen.

Since that's the case, then he... certainly can't let Li Yingfu continue to misunderstand.

"You've misunderstood Brother Yingfu. Enjing and I just happened to run into her on the way, and then I gave her a ride." "How could you have run into her on the way? Shouldn't she have come in a van?"

Chen Ran blinked: "Her van broke down on the road, and I happened to be passing by, so I brought her over."

"What a coincidence?"

"It's just such a coincidence."

"Alright."

Li Yingfu looked at Chen Ran for a few seconds, and finally nodded.

In his heart, however, he scoffed at Chen Ran's explanation.

Do you really think he's old and easy to fool?

However, since Chen Ran refused to say, he naturally wouldn't press him for details.

Ultimately, this is their private matter.

Having been in the industry for so many years, he has seen many screenwriters and actresses get together, and he has also seen many couples on set.

As long as it doesn't affect the normal filming schedule, he won't interfere. He also knows that Chen Ran is the kind of person who knows his limits and won't do anything reckless.

To be honest, Li Yingfu had been quietly observing the women around Chen Ran during this time.

Once Kim Eun-sook's student status is revealed, this young woman will inevitably face a number of people who will try to get close to her.

As he expected, Jang Nara quickly rose to prominence.

However, Chen Ran remained unmoved.

As for Jung Soo-jung, Lee Eung-bok felt that Chen Ran probably treated her like a younger sister.

Unexpectedly, the one who seemed to win over Chen Ran in the end was the unassuming Ham Eun-jung.

These two people hadn't interacted much on set before.

Is it precisely this lack of initiative that attracted Chen Ran?

Li Yingfu couldn't come up with a solution, so he decisively stopped thinking about it.

He just observes the young people's antics and enjoys the gossip in his spare time.

No matter who Chen Ran dates in the crew, as long as it's not Lee Jong-suk or Kim Woo-bin, it's not a big problem. Putting aside his idle thoughts, Lee Eung-bok stood up and waved his hand.

"start!"

The entire crew quickly got into work mode. The filming schedule wasn't tight today, so everyone from top to bottom was quite relaxed.

Under these circumstances, the filming process went even more smoothly than expected, with two consecutive scenes completed in one take.

"Cut, this one's passed."

After the second scene was filmed, a staff member jogged over to Chen Ran and Li Yingfu.

"Screenwriter, director, Tara has come to visit the set, and she brought a coffee truck and a food truck with her. They're already at the door."

Li Yingfu nodded: "Okay, let them in."

Chen Ran had already told him that Tara was coming to visit the set this morning.

"Everyone take a break, Tara's here to visit the set."

The crew immediately erupted in cheers.

Tara, the group of beautiful actresses! We get to see these gorgeous celebrities up close again. Soon, commotion was heard outside the film set.

The first to enter were Lee Qri, Park Hyomin, and three others, with Yoo Hwayoung walking at the back.

As the group of people, all with exquisite makeup, walked in, they greeted the staff they encountered with polite smiles.

"Eun-jung unnie!"

The little dragon cub was the first to rush to Ham Eun-jung.

Looking at the pretty face in front of her, which clearly still had a touch of childishness, Ham Eun-jung couldn't help but think of the mature dragon cub she had seen last night, and she was momentarily dazed.

She quickly regained her composure, smiled gently, and reached out to tidy up the little dragon's bangs.

"Why did you come early? We agreed on ten o'clock!"

Upon hearing this, Lee Juri, who had walked over, glanced at the little dragon and said jokingly, "You'll have to ask Jiyeon about that. She's so eager to get up in the morning, completely different from when she's lazing in bed."

The little dragon's expression instantly became a bit unnatural.

"I...I just wanted to see Eun-jung unnie sooner, okay? Besides, it wasn't that much earlier. If the unnies had gotten up any later, they might have been late."

"Yes, yes, yes, you're right, you're doing this so you can see Eun-jung sooner." Ham Eun-jung smiled when she heard this, and looking at the little dragon cub in front of her, she guessed that she wasn't doing this to see her sooner, but for Chen Ran.

However, remembering what Da Longzai had said to her last night, she decided to drop the matter.

Let the little dragon cub do as he pleases. Even she, in the future, doesn't care. What right does she have to forcibly stop him?

"Oppa!"

Suddenly, the little dragon cub clinging to Ham Eun-jung's arm lit up and happily called out in a certain direction.

Chen Ran walked over, smiled, and nodded to Li Juli and the others in greeting.

"Thank you for the coffee truck and food truck."

"You're welcome. We also need to thank Chen Ran for taking care of Eun-jung on set," Park So-yeon replied on behalf of the crew.

Beside them, Jeon Boram and Park Hyomin smiled and nodded, their eyes secretly observing Chen Ran.

They had actually seen Chen Ran once before, on the rainy night when he drove Xiaolongzai back.

But back then, the underground parking garage was dark, unlike now where it's outdoors, sunny and bright, giving Chen Ran a more youthful and sunny look.

He truly deserves to be called the most handsome screenwriter. "Oppa, did we disturb your filming?" Little Dragon asked Chen Ran with bright, sparkling eyes.

She hadn't seen this oppa for a while, and now that she saw him again, her heart started racing uncontrollably.

Just like that rainy night.

This must be what liking someone is, right?

It's a pity that I'm a bit far from this oppa now, so I can't smell his wonderful sandalwood scent anymore.

Thinking this, the little dragon cub still subconsciously twitched its upturned nose, trying to see if it could smell that scent.

This subtle little movement was noticed by Ham Eun-jung, who was holding her arm.

Ham Eun-jung quickly realized what her younger sister was smelling, and felt inexplicably flustered.

She subtly tilted her head slightly, brought her nose close to the left side of her collar, sniffed the scent on her clothes, and then secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Phew~ Thank goodness, Chen Ran's scent didn't get on my clothes.

Luckily, I was wearing Da Longzai's nightgown when I slept in Chen Ran's bed last night.

If she were wearing the clothes she's wearing, the little dragon cub might have smelled it when she came over. If she got caught, it would be really hard to explain.

"Unnie, why do your clothes smell like oppa?"

"Um...actually, I slept in Chen Ran's bed last night."

Wouldn't that cause the dragon cub to explode?

Hearing the little dragon's words, Chen Ran joked, "If I said I was bothering you, would you turn around and leave right now?"

"Ah~ oppa~"

The little dragon pouts as it's being teased, making Li Juli and the others laugh.

Just then, Liu Huaying, who had gone to the coffee cart to get coffee earlier, came over carrying two bags of coffee.

"Unnies, coffee."

Lee Juri accepted the coffees with a smile.

"Eun-jung unnie, here you go."

Ham Eun-jung glanced at the coffee handed to her, then looked up at the smiling face before her. The images of the members' future suffering that she had seen on Daeyong's computer last night flashed vividly through her mind, and she involuntarily clenched her fists.

If she could, Ham Eun-jung would definitely have kicked him without hesitation right now.

But she couldn't; now was not the time to turn against him.

On the other side, seeing that Ham Eun-jung hadn't answered yet, Yoo Hwa-young blinked and called out again.

"Eun-jung unnie, coffee."

Seeing this, Lee Juri and the others also turned to look.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became a little awkward.

She took a few deep breaths to suppress her anger, then forced a smile and reached out to take it.

"Sorry, I was spacing out just now. Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Liu Huaying replied with a smile, but inwardly she was starting to have doubts.

"Strange, why did I feel like this woman wanted to hit me just now? But that's impossible, Ham Eun-jung is the kindest person to me in the group." Park Hyo-min looked away when she saw this, while Lee Qri sipped her coffee, glanced at Ham Eun-jung, and her eyes flickered slightly, as if she was thinking.

After handing out coffee to everyone, Liu Huaying, having played the role of a well-behaved girl, finally fixed her gaze on Chen Ran, who was standing next to Xiaolongzai, her eyes narrowing slightly.

This is the screenwriter who gave the role of their own unnie to Ham Eun-jung.

He's really handsome, even more so than in the photos online.

As if thinking of something, Liu Huaying's smile widened slightly as she walked up to Chen Ran and handed him the last cup of coffee.

"Screenwriter, this is for you."

Actually, she took this for herself, but she suddenly thought that she could try flirting with Chen Ran.

What if you succeed in flirting?

Then, the expressions of Park Ji-yeon and Ham Eun-jung, who are close to him, will definitely be quite interesting.

Looking at the coffee in front of him, Chen Ran raised an eyebrow.

The eyes of Ham Eun-jung and the others nearby also subconsciously turned over.
