Peninsula: 72 Hours of Blind Dates

Ahn Yoo-jin glanced worriedly at Jang Won-young, who was walking quickly out of the practice room.

Jin Zhiyuan asked what to eat tonight.

Ahn Yu-jin immediately picked up the conversation, saying, "Are you really not afraid of the physical fitness test?"

Lee Hyun-seo and Naoi Rei both chimed in, saying, "That's right, you've lost weight."

Ahn Yu-jin called out, "Autumn Unnie!"

No need to say anything else, the members all fell silent upon seeing the golden autumn.

Jin Qiutian, puzzled, asked, "What's wrong?"

Ahn Yu-jin asked, "What would you like to eat tonight, unnie?"

Unsurprisingly, Jin Qiutian, who is highly self-disciplined and strict about managing her figure, casually said, "Half a sweet potato, half an egg, and a little chicken breast. What's up?"

Ahn Yu-jin gave a thumbs up and exclaimed, "As expected of an unnie, it seems like you've maintained this figure since your trainee days."

Jin Qiutian nodded and said, "Pretty much. The company didn't make me do a physical test. I remember last time I weighed 46kg, the same as when I was a trainee." "As for protein, beef is fine too. Let's have beef tonight."

Kim Ji-won is looking for "teammates".

Ahn Yoo-jin touched her stomach and said, "I'm going to the restroom. You guys discuss it quickly."

After leaving the practice room, Ahn Yu-jin quickened her pace and headed towards the restroom.

After pushing open the door, Ahn Yoo-jin stood in front of the sink and called out, "Won-young, how much longer are you going to take?"

There was no response.

Ahn Yoo-jin glanced at the cubicle.

Fortunately, the doors were all open. If someone was in the bathroom, Ahn Yoo-jin would "act" a little. She was afraid that other trainees were there, so she couldn't let them notice anything amiss.

Stepping out of the restroom, Ahn Yoo-jin headed towards the stairwell without any hesitation.

crunch.

Pulling open the iron gate, they indeed saw Zhang Yuanying leaning against the wall.

Ahn Yoo-jin immediately asked with concern, "What happened?" Jang Won-young looked up and revealed a happy smile.

Ahn Yoo-jin frowned and asked, "Really?"

Zhang Yuanying opened her arms, took a step forward to Ahn Yu-jin, hugged her, and whispered in her ear, "It really happened, it worked."

"How did you succeed?"

With her arms wide open, Jang Won-young handed the phone to Ahn Yoo-jin without reservation.

Ahn Yoo-jin actually "envies" Jang Won-young.

Of all the idols, Jang Won-young is probably the only one who has the phone number of the current chairman of Hyundai-Kia Group, one of the four major conglomerates, saved in his phone contacts.

The ordinary letter "h" on Zhang Yuanying's phone is not black at all, but gold and glows.

Chairman Jung of Hyundai-Kia Group – the value of those few words is beyond words.

Ahn Yu-jin exclaimed in surprise, "You actually have the chairman's phone number in your phone!"

Zhang Yuanying said, "Read the text message."

There were only two text messages. One was sent a little over an hour ago, around 7 p.m.

One of the replies was from 3 minutes ago, just after 9 p.m. Zhang Yuanying.

The text message that Chairman Zheng sent to Zhang Yuanying was just three words: "Well done."

Zhang Yuanying's reply was also very short, just one sentence: "Don't worry, Chairman, I will continue to work hard."

After reading the text message, Ahn Yu-jin asked from the bottom of her heart, "So, it's a success?"

Zhang Yuanying said in a low voice, "Chairman Zheng probably knows about me and Team Leader Han Xijun."

"What is it?"

"That's the thing."

"That one? Which one?"

"Unnie, the one you're secretly dating."

"You and that person are really together?"

Zhang Yuanying waved his hand and said, "No, fakes don't count." "What? I don't understand."

Zhang Yuanying patiently explained the current situation to Ahn Yoo-jin.

We met last night at the Xinxingyuan Restaurant, which is run by Zhang Yuanying's family.

Han Xijun did agree to help Zhang Yuanying, which is why Zhang Yuanying suggested that Han Xijun go to Naksan Park together, thinking that they could take some photos there to prove that the two of them were "dating".

As a result, Han Hee-joon said he would find a way to make Chairman Jung believe that the two of them had started a secret relationship.

Zhang Yuanying was also very curious about what method Han Xijun used.

For Zhang Yuanying, as long as she could achieve her "goal," it was fine. Originally, she had planned to make a lot of preparations, but now it was better that she didn't have to do anything.

The more Zhang Yuanying spoke, the brighter her expression became.

Ahn Yoo-jin interrupted, "Won-young, do you really admire that person now?"

Zhang Yuanying nodded and said, "Yes, I admire him. Besides my father, he is the first person who makes me feel that I can solve any problem."

"Hey, something seems off about your worship!"

Jang Won-young excitedly said, "Unnie, I will become the spokesperson for Hyundai Kia's new flagship car." Ahn Yoo-jin shook her head; Jang Won-young was deliberately ignoring what she said.

What Zhang Yuanying needs right now is affirmation, and An Youzhen said slowly, "I believe you can do it."

After thinking for a moment, Ahn Yoo-jin added, "But I've never quite understood why Chairman Jung of Hyundai Kia wanted you to secretly date that person. What's the reason?"

"Let's cooperate."

"What kind of cooperation requires this approach?"

"I'm not entirely sure either, it seems to be AI collaboration."

Why would you...? (The question is posed as an incomplete thought, implying that Hyundai-Kia Group is partnering with Kakao Group's AI platform.)

Zhang Yuanying said, "That day I heard that director say that SsangYong Motor Company had been acquired by KG Group and that they were going to develop the first new energy artificial intelligence car of the country's own brand. I don't understand it either."

Hearing this, Ahn Yoo-jin understood a bit and analyzed, "So Chairman Jung of Hyundai Kia is worried that Kakao Group and KG Group are collaborating on the development of AI cars, and wants to take full control to prove that Hyundai Kia Group will always be the number one car company in South Korea."

Zhang Yuanying muttered, "I don't know, but I guess so."

Ahn Yu-jin said, "That's most likely the case. The AI ​​department at Kakao Group is headed by that person. By 'tying' him in, even if companies secretly compete for priority in cooperation, Hyundai-Kia Group will ultimately win."

Zhang Yuanying looked at Ahn Yujin with admiration and said, "Unnie is really smart." Ahn Yujin smiled and said, "What's so smart about her? That's how it's portrayed in dramas. Besides, Kakao Group is a technology company, not a traditional chaebol. It's very likely that they will collaborate with new companies to innovate. It's like a power struggle for high social status. I can't say for sure. A reshuffling? Probably."

Zhang Yuanying had absolutely no interest in any of the reshuffling or the struggle for high social status.

She is now eagerly anticipating Hyundai-Kia's official announcement that she has become their new brand ambassador.

Once it's officially announced, the position of the top five female lead will be hers.

Jang Won-young's thoughts were never about "defeating" anyone or becoming the only fifth-generation girl group idol to have a clear top position; rather, they were thinking about her "planning" for the future.

It's just that other people don't understand.

Even Ahn Yu-jin didn't really understand that Jang Won-young's desire to be recognized as the lead actress was actually a longing to break free from being labeled as a perfect product of an industrial assembly line and to be her own true self.
