Peninsula Platinum Era

Chapter 327 The United States' incompetence led to the loss of sovereignty and national humiliation.

"How did she know? I don't know! I didn't tell her."

Yuqi panicked. She shouldn't have told anyone about this. Could it be that someone overheard her talking in her sleep?

I don't even share a dorm with Ye Shuhua, and I wouldn't talk in my sleep in Korean, so no one else would know.

"Still playing dumb? You really disappoint me. You won't even admit what you just said."

Mei Yan had no idea that the two drunkards were having a conversation with immortals. However, Song Yuqi felt uncomfortable because of their distrustful attitude. So, she gritted her teeth and rushed into the apartment, despite her headache.

"What are you doing! Who are you? Where am I?!"

Shu Hua was sleeping soundly on the sofa when her teammate suddenly grabbed her and dragged her outside. Shu Hua thought she had been kidnapped, and Song Yuqi kept covering her mouth with her hand.

"Be quiet! We have something to ask you."

Shu Hua was indignant at Yu Qi's fierce look, but when she saw Mei Yan standing next to her with the same stern gaze, she immediately went limp.

"What's wrong? It's not even dawn yet, what are you trying to do?"

The maknae, raising her hands above her head in a gesture of surrender, was quite sensible, prompting Miyeon and Yuqi to exchange a glance and begin a thorough interrogation.

"How did you find out about Director Chen and Oni? Where did you get the information from, and who did you tell? Tell me the truth, or I'll show you what cruelty is."

The old Beijing girl had a fierce look on her face. Although she had just been embarrassed by Mei Yan's questioning, the fact that the battle force was now two against one, and that she was in high spirits as she tortured Ye Shuhua with Mei Yan, made her feel great.

Suddenly, she was no longer sleepy, and her head no longer hurt. This enthusiasm surprised even Meiyan.

"What Director Chen? I don't know him. Does our company even have such a person?"

Although she was also in a daze, Ye Shuhua felt a sense of humiliation, as if she were being treated like a prisoner, being held between two people.

"You still dare to argue? We won't let you off the hook until you give us a proper explanation!"

Song Yuqi's face was contorted with rage. It felt so good to be able to use Zhao Meiyan's name to deal with Ye Shuhua, especially since they had just had a fight.

"Give me a break, give me a break!"

Ye Shuhua swallowed hard. It was rare to see Zhao Meiyan with such a gloomy expression, and she even had found a helper. It seemed that she couldn't escape this situation by pretending to be stupid today.

But what could she say? That you were severely punished by Zhang Yuanying, and that she originally wanted to rush in to save you, but was intimidated by the power behind the other party, so she left you behind and ran away.

"What do you mean by 'delay'? Confess now!"

Mianmian felt she had finally stood up for herself, and following Song Yuqi's lead, her tone became sharp as well. This younger sister definitely had something to hide.

"Okay, okay! I overheard it by accident. Unnie, do you remember that year-end stage, the one where I performed with Jang Won-young and the others..."

Listening to the maknae's words, Miyeon felt the dead memories attacking her. The back of her head seemed to hurt a little again, and her neck felt a bit tight. She couldn't help but touch her head.

"Stop rambling and get to the point."

Seeing that this guy was going off on a tangent, Yuqi couldn't help but urge her to tell the whole story quickly. Actually, at this point, Meiyan already felt something was wrong and wanted to talk to Ye Shuhua privately.

"That day, Unnie went missing. I went to look for her and accidentally discovered that she had been captured by Jang Won-young. I was just about to help Unnie..."

He finally figured out his words, intending to conceal the shame of his retreat at the last minute and attribute the matter to his failure to stop it in time.

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Miyeon suddenly covered the other person's mouth, catching Song Yuqi off guard. Weren't the two of them supposed to be interrogating Ye Shuhua together? Why did things suddenly change? Ye Shuhua also realized that this unnie wanted to save face, but being bullied by a child was really too embarrassing, and it was also a disgrace to the group.

Her eldest sister was dealt with by the maknae (youngest member), which made her very angry. If it weren't for the fact that the maknae accidentally revealed her family name, she would have definitely rushed in and fought with Jang Won-young, no, she would have rushed in to save Mi-yeon unnie.

"Zhang Yuanying? What does Zhang Yuanying have to do with this? Ye Shuhua, tell me about it."

Yuqi felt that her best quality was her strong curiosity, but when Meiyan heard this, she immediately grabbed Shuhua's arm, and Mangxin understood and immediately shut up.

The small alliance disbanded instantly, and Yuqi knew there was nothing she could do. However, there would be plenty of time in the future, and Ye Shuhua wasn't exactly a tight-lipped person; perhaps she would find a way to break through sooner or later.

"Don't ask so many questions, Ye Shuhua. If you tell me, I'll kill you."

Meiyan took her two younger sisters back to the apartment. The other two members were still sleeping soundly. Meiyan didn't know how much Ye Shuhua had overheard, but it seemed that the secret hadn't spread beyond the two of them.

Even so, their secrecy was so tight that only two people in the group were unaware of it, which wasn't much different from everyone knowing.

Moreover, these two people have different sources of information, and it's clear they're interested in each other's intelligence sources. This isn't a good sign; things could get really bad if they start comparing accounts.

“If I find out that you’ve spread this around, I’ll kill you both. I’ll kill both of you.”

She lowered her voice to scare her two younger sisters, but she knew in her own heart that the reason they had been able to keep the secret until now was because of Chen Shijun's power.

Two girls from different countries are like rootless duckweed. Offending a powerful figure in the circle will definitely not do them any good. On the contrary, if the other party is narrow-minded, they may suffer the consequences.

"No, no, I swear on my life."

"I will absolutely not tell anyone. If anyone has, it's her who can't keep a tight-lipped mouth..."

"Bullshit, you're the one who can't keep a tight mouth. Everyone knows you're a big mouth."

It seems like the same thing is about to happen again. Sister Mianmian doesn't want to talk to them anymore. The shock and shame she felt about this incident have kept her up all night.

……

When Chen Shijun learned about this, he did not blame Meiyan. After all, it is difficult to keep a secret from someone you spend every day with, and you never know when a clue will be revealed.

Whether it's Mi-yeon, who keeps her mouth shut, or Ji-min, who usually likes to show off a little, it seems that neither of them can escape this situation.

I just hope An'an can keep it hidden for a while. She usually likes to desensitize Yuan Ying, which probably has some effect.

However, this younger sister seems to have really grown up recently. After returning to Starship from IZ*ONE, she no longer has the identity of the youngest member, but as the core of the team, she has taken on more responsibilities.

In this situation, some of the company's underhanded tactics made her more pragmatic, and her interactions with those around her became increasingly formulaic.

An An would also tell Chen Shijun about Yuan Ying's minor grievances, and during the period leading up to her debut, the company spared no effort in enhancing You Zhen's influence.

The key issue is that she no longer talks about these things in front of him, and she no longer expresses her dissatisfaction with her career. Instead, she is mostly concerned about Chen Shijun himself.

Xiaoyuan's maturity is a good thing, after all, she used to cause him a lot of trouble. But her maturity also makes Chen Shijun feel a little lost. The feeling that she doesn't need his tolerance makes him feel empty inside.

"How come you have so much free time lately? You're about to debut, shouldn't you be in a tight schedule?"

Despite saying that, Chen Shijun was very happy that Xiaoyuan could come to play, especially after he had captured Youzhen's heart, he felt a sense of guilt and wanted to make amends.

And coincidentally, he was also entrusted by Meiyan. It felt like she was using a humiliating plea for mercy to get the other party to stop being hostile. Chen Shijun also felt that this guy was really hard to handle.
