Peninsula: 72 Hours of Blind Dates

Wu Haiyuan saw the text message.

She did not reply immediately.

Firstly, practice is about to begin, and it was only after much effort that the members calmed down and focused on practicing. I need to set a good example and not be playing on my phone before work.

Secondly, Wu Haiyuan didn't know how to reply to the message sent by Yin Zhixun.

It's actually a very ordinary piece of news.

During practice, Wu Haiyuan was a little distracted and made two mistakes in his positioning. He kept apologizing to the members and forcing himself to cheer up.

The two-hour practice session has ended.

The members went to the restroom, went to the cafeteria, sat on the sofa to drink water, and lay on the floor to rest.

Wu Haiyuan took the water Pei Zhenlu handed him, put it aside, and picked up his phone.

The members each did their own thing.

Wu Haiyuan picked up his phone simply to contact Han Xijun.

That's what everyone thinks, so there's nothing particularly curious about it. Looking at the text message received two hours ago, and the text message from Jiang Huiyuan more than an hour ago, as well as the missed calls...

This was a bit too sudden for Wu Haiyuan.

It has been four years since I graduated from Nonhyeon High School.

During those four years, Wu Haiyuan only kept in touch with Jiang Huiyuan; she did not contact any of her other classmates.

Unlike graduating from high school or university, high school graduation almost never involves organizing class reunions.

Yoon Ji-hoon sent a text message to Oh Hae-won, saying that there would be a Mid-Autumn Festival holiday in two days and that his high school classmates in H country were having a reunion, asking if Oh Hae-won had time to attend.

Wu Haiyuan was unaware that some of his classmates might have gone to study abroad.

As for the class reunion, if Wu Haiyuan hadn't heard from Jiang Huiyuan that Yoon Ji-hoon had confessed to her after graduating from middle school and made some kind of promise, and if she hadn't been dating Han Xijun, she might have been very happy to see the class reunion invitation.

But at this moment, this text message is a huge burden.

Even if we take a step back and assume that Yoon Ji-hoon didn't spend money on those GG brand promotions for nmixx's comeback, Oh Hae-won would be fine.

It's been years since we last met, and everything has changed. It would be nice to meet up, chat about our experiences over the past few years, and have a meal together.

Besides, Jiang Huiyuan was also at the class reunion, so Wu Haiyuan had nothing to worry about as long as Jiang Huiyuan was there. However, Yoon Ji-hoon did that thing, and even as a fan, he "gave" too much, completely exceeding the "boundaries" of what fans should give.

It's also possible that they're new to the industry and lack experience.

It's not uncommon for fans of other top idol groups to make similar "efforts".

I just keep thinking about Yoon Ji-hoon's confession when he graduated from middle school and that so-called promise.

When his manager mentioned that the company was arranging a meal with the fan club management and Yoon Ji-hoon, who made the biggest contribution to this comeback, to express their gratitude, Oh Hae-won had already been thinking about it.

When you meet and talk about high school, even if you bring up things like confessing your feelings or being ignored in a joking tone, it will definitely be awkward.

When the topic of their agreement came up, Wu Haiyuan didn't know how to respond.

After all, the current situation is that she is indeed steadily making progress towards becoming an idol singer, just as she said when she graduated from high school.

First of all, she has already successfully debuted as an idol singer.

Yoon Ji-hoon is one of them.

He is now a registered professional football player for Incheon United Football Club, and he is quite famous. He is praised online as an extremely talented football prodigy.

It would be better to play football overseas and become a national hero or something, at least then there would be no time to meet up. Jiang Huiyuan sent a message more than an hour ago about a high school reunion, urging Wu Haiyuan to attend. She even mentioned two names that Wu Haiyuan didn't recognize, but Jiang Huiyuan said they were classmates she used to be close to.

He still hasn't replied to Yoon Ji-hoon's message.

Wu Haiyuan guessed that it was probably Yin Zhixun who contacted Jiang Huiyuan, urging her to convince him to attend the class reunion.

He knew that he and Jiang Huiyuan were best friends.

Therefore, Wu Haiyuan's reply to Jiang Huiyuan's message was equivalent to replying to Yin Zhixun's message.

Incheon.

Jiang Huiyuan attends classes at school in the morning.

She works from noon to night, but if she has important classes in the afternoon, she will adjust her schedule to work only from night to early morning.

It's the same barbecue restaurant; we're already quite familiar with each other.

In the classroom.

My phone is vibrating.

Jiang Huiyuan became distracted after receiving Wu Haiyuan's reply. Her hands under the table were rapidly typing a message, replying to Wu Haiyuan, "Come over when you're done. We'll definitely be waiting for you."

The purpose was clear: they insisted that Wu Haiyuan attend the class reunion no matter what.

Hey.

Wu Haiyuan replied very quickly.

After reading the message, Jiang Huiyuan hesitated for a moment before replying, "Han Xijun will understand. He must have a class reunion too. I'll go first. If any classmates bring their boyfriends or girlfriends, I'll let you know, and you can bring Han Xijun over."

Company practice room.

Upon receiving this reply, Wu Haiyuan knew that no matter how much he tried to refuse, it wouldn't work.

Fortunately, Jiang Huiyuan didn't say anything in the text message about not letting Han Xijun go with her.

It's not that class reunions are a bad occasion.

They ate dinner together, but it didn't feel right to leave Han Xijun out and go to the class reunion alone after dinner. Han Xijun definitely knew that Yoon Ji-hoon was at the reunion, and Wu Haiyuan didn't want Han Xijun to overthink it.

This is a matter of security.

Wu Haiyuan never considered what others thought of Han Xijun. He switched to a different text message chat window.

Wu Haiyuan originally intended to make a phone call.

I just glanced at the time and it was about 11 a.m., which is definitely the busiest time of day for Han Xijun.

She was also afraid that if Han Xijun saw this text message, he would be distracted.

While hesitating, Wu Haiyuan's manager came to the practice room and called him away.

I went upstairs to the office to meet with the manager of the agent's office and the company's newly established self-media department to discuss the plan for nmixx to open a live streaming room on the live streaming platform.

This plan was decided long ago.

The original plan was to take advantage of the comeback to start live streaming and meet more fans more often, thereby further increasing nmixx's popularity and brand awareness.

With the boost from the GG brand's comeback promotion, the live stream plan has become even more important; the first priority is to turn people who know about nmixx through the GG brand into fans.

It's simply a matter of quantity changing into quality.

As the leader of the nmixx group and currently the most popular member, Wu Haiyuan is definitely the core of the live stream.

When all members of the group make an appearance, the company will promote it first. During the live stream, Wu Haiyuan acts as the MC, serving as the crucial bridge connecting the members with viewers and fans across their phone screens.

The talents and charm to be showcased during the process need to be discussed and decided in advance.

What can be done, and what can be said.

We definitely can't let the members let themselves go.

Because of some things, Wu Haiyuan forgot about sending messages to Han Xijun.

It's also possible that Wu Haiyuan thought he had sent a message to Han Xijun before going to do other things.

Two days later

Mid-Autumn Festival

The members had their last chance to rest before their comeback.

The members all had to go home during the short two-day holiday.

Wu Haiyuan stayed in his dormitory in Seoul.

The two families will meet for lunch tomorrow. After washing up, Wu Haiyuan lay in bed holding his phone. He still couldn't tell Han Xijun tonight. Wu Haiyuan's plan was to first confirm that Han Xijun was also off tomorrow, and then go directly to Han Xijun's apartment tomorrow morning.
