Peninsula: Starting with a silly childhood friend!

Although June is not yet the hottest month of the year, the sun high in the sky is still making it quite unbearably hot.

Of course, for some people, the hot summer is the most celebrated season of the year!

For example, this person...

"Wow, these girls all have such long, white legs!"

At this moment, a Mercedes-Benz was slowly driving on the road. The driver was looking around with a scanning expression. This scene prompted a slightly thin man in the passenger seat, whose handsome face, even with glasses, couldn't be hidden, to say helplessly:

"Can't you hurry up? There are people running outside who are faster than you."

"Hey, Bai Yuan, what's the rush? This is Cheongdam-dong, a well-known 'rich area' and commercial district. The girls here are way better quality than those at our school! Why not take a look?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Baiyuan tilted his head speechlessly, clearly not wanting to say another word to this person whose mind was full of lewd nonsense.

In no time, the car stopped by the roadside. "Hey, we've arrived."

As soon as Kim Chan-bin said this, Liu Baiyuan turned his head to look at the slightly old building in front of him. Just as Kim Chan-bin, who was in the driver's seat, said, they were now in Cheongdam-dong, Gangnam District, Seoul, a well-known wealthy and commercial area.

However, this slightly dilapidated building seems a bit out of place in this kind of place. Of course, if it were just an ordinary building, there would be no need to say anything.

But the building across the street belongs to JYP Entertainment, one of the three major entertainment companies in South Korea!

"Is this JYP?"

Liu Baiyuan's tone was laced with undisguised skepticism. Jin Canbin, with one hand on the steering wheel and the other pulling out a cigarette from somewhere and putting it in his mouth, smirked and raised an eyebrow, saying, "Otherwise what? Do you think I'd go to the wrong company for my 'wives'? There's a logo on the door, isn't there?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Baiyuan looked towards the door and, sure enough, there were three large white letters that read JYP.

He knew that his brother was a complete naive dreamer, so he didn't mind what his brother had just said about "wife." He just pursed his lips, opened the car door, and got out.

After watching Kim Chanbin leave, Liu Baiyuan didn't rush towards JYP. Instead, he turned around and found a dessert shop. He went in and leisurely ordered himself an iced Americano.

After finding a seat by the window, Liu Baiyuan looked at the JYP building not far away, thinking about what to say later, while waiting for his coffee.

But not long after Liu Baiyuan sat down, the wind chimes at the entrance of the dessert shop started ringing as the two girls pushed the door open and entered.

"Unnie, hurry and get your hat! Mina unnie said the dance teacher has already gone home!"

"Inside!"

Hearing the somewhat familiar voice, Liu Baiyuan looked up curiously at the entrance and saw a girl wearing a mask running into the dessert shop, carrying a faint fragrance.

Another tall girl, also wearing a mask, stood timidly at the door, looking at the building across the street while helping her sister open the shop door, her eyes showing great anxiety.

Looking at the two figures, a hint of doubt flashed across Liu Baiyuan's face. He originally thought it was just his imagination, but he actually felt a sense of familiarity from the other person.

But he couldn't remember exactly where he had seen them before, and because the person was wearing a mask, he couldn't recognize them...

It was a complete waste of time.

Just as he was staring at the girl by the door, the receptionist happened to say to him:

"Annyeonghaseyo, sir, your iced Americano is ready!"

"Inside."

Since he didn't recognize anyone, he immediately looked away, greeted the receptionist, but just as he got up from his seat to get his coffee, he suddenly felt a soft bump against his back...

It was as if something soft had nudged him.

"Ugh..."

Curious, he turned his head and saw that the girl who had just passed by him was now sitting on the ground with a thud after bumping into him, frowning and rubbing her bottom, looking like she had fallen quite hard.

"Are you alright?"

Out of politeness, Liu Baiyuan asked the girl who had fallen to the ground a question.

However, perhaps due to the angle of view, although the girl was wearing a pure black dance costume, a hint of cleavage could be faintly seen through the sheer, breathable fabric...

This glimpse of a perilous opportunity was immediately noticed by Liu Baiyuan, who was standing there. He seemed to have found the 'tool' for his crime—the very thing that had just defied him...

"Hey! What are you looking at!"

Almost instantly, the girl noticed Liu Baiyuan's dangerous gaze. She immediately used one hand to shield herself and the other to prop herself up. She stared at Liu Baiyuan fiercely for a few seconds, as if trying to etch his face into her mind.

Liu Baiyuan was somewhat bewildered by this sudden turn of events, and frowned slightly as he said, "Oh, I said, it was clearly you who bumped into me, wasn't it?"

Upon hearing this, the girl was momentarily speechless. She had indeed been in a hurry to leave after finding the hat, but who knew she would bump into this boy as soon as she turned around? But regardless, staring at a girl in public... that's not a good thing, is it?

And it seems like because I hit it too hard, I still have some lingering pain in my upper and lower body...

Just as the girl was about to say something, the girl who had been standing by the door suddenly ran over, squatted down, and whispered in the girl's ear, "Unnie... stop making noise here, have you forgotten what happened to me...?"

The girl's voice wasn't very low, so Liu Baiyuan, who was standing close by, could vaguely hear what she was saying, which made him even more curious about her identity.

"Um... haven't we met somewhere before?"

Finally, unable to suppress his inner doubts, Liu Baiyuan asked the girl who was running up behind him.

However, this angered the girl who bumped into Liu Baiyuan but knocked herself down. She quickly got up, protecting her younger sister while staring intently at Liu Baiyuan, as if she regarded him as a pervert of some kind of "profession".

In their industry jargon, Liu Baiyuan was like a "sasaeng fan" at this moment!

"Unnie...we're going to be late."

The younger sister glanced at Liu Baiyuan, then timidly tugged at her older sister's sleeve. Although she didn't say anything, the meaning behind her gesture was obvious.

The older sister understood her younger sister's 'hint'. After struggling for a couple of seconds, she glared at Liu Baiyuan, as if trying to remember the man in front of her.

Even as he shoved Liu Baiyuan aside to leave, he muttered under his breath, "I'll remember you..."

???

"Huh?! You..."

He was about to say something, but before he could even utter a sound, a sharp pain shot through his brain, causing him to instinctively cover his head with his hand. In a daze, he thought he heard some sound...
