Peninsula: Starting with a silly childhood friend!

"Unnie, could you help me with my zipper?"

In the waiting room, Chou Tzu-yu suddenly found Mina and asked her for help.

"Um?"

Upon hearing Tzuyu's words, Mina immediately put down her phone, stood up, and helped Tzuyu pull on her zipper.

Such an opportunity to observe up close is extremely rare!

"What's wrong?"

After finishing, Mina keenly noticed Tzuyu's slightly uncomfortable look and asked curiously:

"I don't know, it's just a bit crowded..."

No sooner had she finished speaking than Mina volunteered:

"Let me see..."

As she spoke, she reached out towards Tzuyu's chest, but at that very moment, Momo Hirai, who was sitting on the sofa preparing to show her oppa the waiting room, captured this moment on camera...

"What is Mina Xi doing over there?"

Seeing Mina's almost undisguised groping, Liu Baiyuan couldn't help but smile helplessly on his face in the phone.

When they met before, he noticed that his fellow countrywoman's eyes always seemed to be glancing in a 'puzzling' direction. He never expected that they were already in a relationship.

It seems they've held back in front of me.

However... if he wasn't mistaken, the other one seems to be Chou Tzu-yu, right?

"Um?"

When Hirai Momo heard Liu Baiyuan's question, she looked over curiously. However, when she saw what Mina and Tzuyu were doing, she moved her phone away almost instantly.

She's clumsy, but not stupid; of course, she can't let her oppa see this.

Although there weren't any particularly erotic scenes.

But she just didn't want her brother to see other women like that.

"Hey! Oppa, you can't look!"

"Alright, alright, don't worry, I didn't see anything... But... you can take a look at who this is."

Liu Baiyuan thought of Bae Joo-hyun beside him, so he smiled and moved his phone screen toward Bae Joo-hyun.

"Oh my! Annyeonghaseyo~ Irene-senpai-nim!"

The moment Hirai Momo saw Bae Joo-hyun, a look of shock immediately appeared on her face. She never expected that her oppa would actually be able to see Bae Joo-hyun, this stunningly beautiful senior, after going there.

"Aniyaseiyo, Momo xi~"

The two greeted each other, and then Liu Baiyuan didn't let them talk much more, mainly because he could tell that the two seemed a little awkward.

After chatting for a few minutes, Hirai Momo hung up the phone, citing rehearsal as the reason.

"Why are you two Japanese speaking the Korean language?"

The moment the call ended, Bae Joo-hyun's curiosity was piqued.

She asked him curiously.

Upon hearing this, Liu Baiyuan paused for a moment before slowly saying:

"I'm not Japanese."

Ok? ? ?

Upon hearing his answer, not only Bae Joo-hyun, but also Kang Seul-gi and Son Seung-wan, who were standing next to her, were stunned.

You say Hirai Momo is your sister, but you also say you're not Japanese. Isn't Hirai Momo Japanese?!

As for the other two "face-obsessed" people... let's not even mention them.

"Actually, Momo and I are childhood friends, so it's not a problem for me to say she's my sister. As for nationality, I'm actually Chinese, not Japanese, it's just that when we were little..."

Liu Baiyuan explained to the group that this matter needed to be clarified, after all, it was a Chinese person being mistaken for a Japanese person... ahem...

Fortunately, the matter was not complicated, and the others immediately understood what he meant.

The backstage area of ​​the fan meeting on the other side.

Hirai Momo, who was in the waiting room, came to the two of them and asked:

What are you two doing?

"Huh? What's wrong?" Mina and Tzuyu both looked at Momo Hirai, who suddenly appeared "angrily" and "questioning" them, with blank expressions.

What's wrong with those two? They're just tidying up their clothes here...

Hirai Momo looked at Mina, whose delicate hands were gently touching Tzuyu's chest, her face full of speechlessness.

At this moment, Chou Tzu-yu seemed to finally notice Mina's actions, her face immediately turned red, and then she took a step back without making a sound.

My attention was focused on the clothes just now, so I didn't notice how "restless" this woman's hands were.

"It's okay, unnie, I'm all better now."

Chou Tzu-yu said to Mina, then quickly moved away from the older woman.

After seeing Chou Tzu-yu leave, Hirai Momo said with a slightly helpless expression:

"Mina, I have some bad news for you to hear?"

"What bad news?"

Upon hearing this, Mina asked with a hint of confusion, and Momo Hirai then slowly replied:

"I was just on a video call with Oppa..."

Ok?

At first, Mina didn't understand what the connection was, but when she thought of the 'accusatory' expression on Hirai Momo's face when she came to find her, her clever little brain suddenly seemed to have figured something out.

"I was just with Tzuyu...did you take a picture of me and give it to Oppa?"

"I originally wanted to show Oppa the waiting room, but who knew you guys..."

Before Hirai Momo could finish speaking, Mani Mina had already closed her eyes slightly, looking utterly helpless... The person involved expressed that she was now filled with regret, deep regret...

My lifelong reputation...

"Kids! We're about to get ready for our rehearsal!"

"Yes!"

As her manager pushed open the door and urged her on, Park Ji-hyo was the first to respond.

The other eight people immediately stood up or walked towards the door.

Mina suddenly seemed to remember something and asked Momo Hirai:

"Didn't Bai Yuan oppa recognize me?"

Hirai Momo recalled how Liu Baiyuan had recognized her almost instantly not long ago, and was about to shatter Mina's 'fantasy' when she suddenly saw Mina's hopeful expression and changed her words:

"No, he just saw two people acting suspiciously here."

Call ~

When Mina heard Hirai Momo's words, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that she hadn't been recognized; if she hadn't been recognized, there was still a chance that her lifelong reputation could be preserved.

"Momo, if Bai Yuan oppa asks later, you can't say it was me!"

After speaking, Mina smiled and walked towards the door. Meanwhile, Momo looked at Mina with a slightly helpless expression and muttered to herself:

"Oppa... I hope you won't let it slip next time you see Mina... otherwise..."

Hirai Momo silently prayed for Liu Baiyuan in her heart, but immediately, she sensed something was wrong. Why was this Xiaonan so concerned about her oppa's opinion?

The two had only met a few times and exchanged a few words. Even if Liu Baiyuan knew about their relationship, what could he do?

unless......

Hirai Momo quietly watched Mina, who had already walked to the door, her expression shifting between light and shadow. But soon, she shook her head and muttered with a smile:

"I'm probably overthinking it. Mina is probably just concerned about her 'reputation.' She and Oppa have hardly ever met, how could that be..."

Thinking of this, Hirai Momo also revealed a silly smile, and walked quickly towards the door. She had to get ready to start rehearsals, and she couldn't keep everyone waiting!
