Peninsula: My cheat code is unscientific

Chapter 28 trending topic?

That can't be! Isn't she a girl?
My charm... is it really so great that it captivates both men and women? Am I a succubus reincarnated?!

Oh my god! What should I do if he really tells me?!

Refuse him? Won't that hurt him? After all, he's all alone in this world, which is quite pitiful!

Agree? This is outrageous! What a joke!
But... he really does cook well... and he's quite... attentive when taking care of people... even though he's usually a bit frivolous...

Ahhh! Yoona! What nonsense are you thinking?!

In just a few seconds, Yoona's mind had already played out a whole drama of ethical dilemmas. She opened her mouth, her throat a little dry, her eyes slightly unfocused: "...Um...that...I think...you...um...are just so-so...not...okay?"

Upon seeing her reaction—could this…could there be a chance?!—Jiang Che leaned forward slightly in excitement.
"See! You think I'm alright too, right? That's great! We've known each other for so long, we've been through thick and thin together! We're so close!"

He spoke rapidly, afraid that Yoona might change her mind, "So... um... could you lend me some start-up capital? Not too much! The situation is great right now! It's a sure thing! I guarantee it! I'll split the profits 50/50 with you! No cheating!"

Yoona: "..."

Most afraid of the air suddenly quiet.

Just a second ago, Yoona was mentally rehearsing how to politely reject a same-sex confession from someone in the same body. Her expression instantly shifted from panic and confusion to—dumbness, and then speechlessness.
Finally, I wish I could travel back in time and strangle the version of myself who "thought I was a succubus" just three seconds ago!

Yoona felt like an idiot, and the image of Jiang Che saying he'd make enough money to buy an island and then disappear completely flashed through her mind. Overwhelmed with shame and anger, she slammed her hand on the table:
"Jiang! Che!!" She practically spat out the name through gritted teeth, "Don't even think about it!! Not a single penny!"

This bastard built up all that buildup! So this was what he was waiting for! Want to buy the island?! Dream on!

Jiang Che's smile froze instantly, and his little plan in his heart was shattered: Well, he couldn't rely on Caishen Yun's leg, but at least he still had one leg. Who said one leg can't walk!
Thinking of this, he shrugged indifferently: "Fine, fine, if you don't want to lend me the money, then don't." His tone was so relaxed, as if he were the one who had just been refused a loan.
Yoona had been worried that it might upset Kang Cheol, but seeing that Kang Cheol seemed completely unaffected, she felt a little frustrated.
She glared at Jiang Che, picked up the milk, and gulped it down in a few mouthfuls, trying to suppress the feeling of frustration.

Seeing that Yoon-ah was drinking so quickly, Jiang Che assumed she was thirsty and hurriedly prepared to refill her glass.

Yoona almost laughed in anger at this gesture.
After dinner, Jiang Che hummed a song while washing the dishes in the kitchen.
Yoona nestled on the sofa, her gaze seemingly fixed on the television, but out of the corner of her eye, she kept her eyes glued to the figure in the kitchen.

Jiang Che.

Yoona silently repeated the name in her mind, and thinking about breakfast made her back teeth itch a little.

Yoona's fingers unconsciously dug at the sofa, her gaze drifting towards the cushion next to her.

It's been a whole day. She hasn't slept with him all day. It was a good excuse just now, but—she subconsciously touched her lower abdomen—oh well, Yoona finally gave up and decided to let him off the hook for another day.

After washing the dishes, Jiang Che naturally sat down at the other end of the sofa, picked up his phone to look at his chart, and before he could even flip through two pages, he heard...

"Ding dong!"

"Ding-dong! Ding-dong!" A series of message notification sounds.
Yoona's phone, which was on the coffee table, was flashing wildly. The lock screen displayed a barrage of messages, making it impossible to read the content; all that could be seen was the constantly popping-up group name: 【Girls' Generation's Secret Garden】.

Yoona was startled by the commotion. "What's going on?" She picked up her phone, unlocked it, and a flood of messages poured out like a burst dam!

[Choi Soo-young]: Lim Yoon-ah, ya!!!

[Kwon Yuri]: Yoona!!! What did you do at the radio station yesterday?! [Sunny]: Lim Daejun! How come you're suddenly so fluent in three languages?!
[Taeyeon]: Don't ask Yoona anymore. I already asked her yesterday. She stayed in China for a while before, and she also learned some Japanese and English.

[Kim Hyoyeon]: Yoona! When did you secretly evolve behind our backs?! It's trending on social media!

[Seohyun]: Yoona unnie... could you teach me some specific study methods?!

The messages kept scrolling by, filled with all sorts of shocked, teasing, and admiring emojis, leaving Yoona completely bewildered.

Trending topics? Radio broadcasts? Learning methods? Three languages?

She recognized each word individually, but when they were put together, it looked like gibberish.

She suddenly looked up at Jiang Che beside her.

Jiang Che was getting annoyed by the incessant beeping from Yoona's phone. He looked up to see what was wrong and found Yoona looking at him. He didn't know why.
But boys who smile a lot are always lucky, and he reflexively returned a Lee-style smile: Yoona, is your phone going to explode?

Yoona: "Get lost"

She took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to slap "Locke Yun" in the face with her phone, and tapped the trending topics list.

Yoona felt like her pupils had been blasted by a magnitude 10 earthquake. She then clicked on the top-ranked radio clip compilation video, which had already gone viral.

Video Title: [Warning: High Energy! Yoona's Four-Language Blitz! The King of Verbal Combat is Born!]

Seeing Yoona's strange expression, Jiang Che scratched his head helplessly. He couldn't afford to offend the big shot. He lowered his head to continue looking at the graph when he heard a familiar voice clearly rang out:
"My friend, human joys and sorrows are not shared."

boom--!
Jiang Che's mind went blank for the rest of his life!
Oh no! Who has nothing better to do than screen record this?!

His smile froze instantly. While Yoona was still staring at the screen, Jiang Che slowly prepared to get up and try to sneak back to his room.

"sit down."

Yoona didn't even lift her head, and her voice wasn't loud.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Che stiffened and resignedly sat back down on the sofa.

After watching the video that had shocked her, Yoona put down her phone. Instead of grabbing a pillow and throwing it at Jiang Che as he had expected, she remained unusually calm, even frighteningly so.

"Let's talk, Jiang Che," Yoona's voice was soft, yet carried immense weight. "About the radio station, and what else can you do?"

"Huh? The radio thing is fine, as for what... what can I do?" Jiang Che's eyes started to dart around wildly. "Just... just ordinary... what normal people can do... I can do a little bit of everything... right?" His voice trailed off, sounding so weak he didn't even have the confidence to speak.

Yoona just stared at him quietly, her face clearly saying "Keep making this up." Jiang Che swallowed hard, knowing he couldn't fool her this time.

"Ahem... about the radio station..." Jiang Che cleared his throat.
