Peninsula: Starting with a silly childhood friend!

Mina: Baek Won oppa, let me show you our extra meal.

Looking at the two messages sent by Mina, Liu Baiyuan's lips unconsciously curled up.

The photo that appeared showed a table full of Korean food.

In the center were two pots of army stew, three or four plates of vegetable salad and Korean cold noodles, surrounded by all kinds of kimchi. Judging from the arrangement of the bowls and chopsticks, it was clear that there were more than nine members of TWICE at this table.

It is estimated that there are also agents or staff involved.

"Are you having dinner with your staff?"

Liu Baiyuan replied to the message, but there was no reply from Mina. She must have started eating by now...

Thinking this way, Liu Baiyuan didn't pay much attention and put down his phone before turning on the TV.

However, the television was just background music; what he was really thinking about was today's "harvest".

Today, I not only gained some goodwill from Bae Joo-hyun, but also had an unexpected surprise: I "captured" Mina as well.

He also gained two points of favorability, which means he now has at least two songs.

Wow, this feeling of suddenly becoming a 'major song producer' is actually... kind of nice.

It's a bit of a shame that Hirai Momo's affection level is still at eight points. He wanted to see if there would be any changes once it reached ten points.

But clearly this time it won't work.

As he pondered, time passed by unnoticed, and before he knew it, Liu Baiyuan had fallen asleep on the sofa.

He was a bit tired today. He went to SM Entertainment during the day and then attended TWICE's fan meeting in the afternoon. To put it bluntly, some idols probably don't have as many activities as he did today...

The next day, Liu Baiyuan woke up early. This was mainly because he lived in a high-rise building and didn't need to close the windows frequently, so the first rays of morning sunlight shone precisely on his face as he slept on the sofa the previous night...

The glaring light made it impossible for him to sleep, so he figured he might as well get up early...

At least you can earn a good reputation for going to bed early and waking up early.

But just as he finished eating a bread and a glass of milk, his phone rang again...

Looking at the caller ID, Liu Baiyuan's face immediately showed a hint of curiosity.

"Hey, Kim Chan-bin."

"Yo-ho! Brother Bai Yuan! Long time no see!!!"

Unlike Liu Baiyuan, who was listless early in the morning, Jin Canbin appeared exceptionally energetic.

Of course... regarding his mental state, Liu Baiyuan asked as if he had expected it:

"You look so energetic... Didn't you sleep again last night?"

Kim Chan-bin is a guy who goes to extremes. He either doesn't sleep at all, staying up for a whole day and night is no problem, or he sleeps like there's no tomorrow, sleeping for double digits is perfectly normal for him...

He was the kind of person who couldn't be woken up no matter how much he was called. Liu Baiyuan even thought that his younger brother had fallen into a deep sleep. If he hadn't still been breathing, Jin Canbin's grave might be over two meters high by now.

"Oh dear! Such precious time isn't for sleeping; it's for doing something more meaningful!"

"for example?"

Liu Baiyuan was tired of hearing him say that.

"Sigh, Brother Bai Yuan, you still don't know how to enjoy life..."

Kim Chan-bin's tone was filled with undisguised regret. You know, this guy was practically the school heartthrob back in school, with girls constantly trying to woo him in the campus forums.

But he just seemed indifferent, spending his days going to class, leaving get out of class, and then going to see his music theory teacher whenever he had free time...

Of course, he also benefited from Liu Baiyuan's indifference. Anyway, he had a pretty good time during his school years because of his status as Liu Baiyuan's roommate and brother.

"Are you free? I'd like to invite you out for coffee, Bai Yuan!"

Kim Chan-bin extended an invitation to Liu Baiyuan, who looked puzzled. Since asking him to take him to JYP last month, the two had not seen each other again.

Why all this sudden change today...?

"What's wrong? Is something the matter?"

"Hmm... sort of. Come out first, I'll tell you when I get there."

"Tsk... Fine, fine."

Liu Baiyuan ultimately decided to go out and meet Jin Canbin. After all, they were roommates from university, and to be honest, he really missed them after not seeing them for so long...

After agreeing on a place with Jin Canbin, Liu Baiyuan tidied up and went out.

Of course, he also told Park Jin-young that this guy was still waiting for his "TT", and now... he could only ask him to wait a little longer.

I hope he won't mind.

Half an hour later, Liu Baiyuan appeared at the coffee shop where he had arranged to meet Jin Canbin. It has to be said that the coffee shop was... quite charming.

Unlike the current mainstream minimalist style, this coffee shop has a strong "seaside" feel, giving people a sense of "coolness" at the beach. Sitting in the shop with the air conditioning on, honestly, if you just look down at your phone, you really feel like you're hallucinating at the beach.

but...

Liu Baiyuan sat in the shop and waited for about ten minutes, but Jin Canbin still didn't come over, so he called him again with a hint of exasperation.

Hey! Where are you?!

As soon as the call connected, Liu Baiyuan shouted directly at Jin Canbin on the other end of the line, and the latter seemed to only then remember that he had gone out to meet this guy, and said to him:

"Oh?! Sorry, Bai Yuan, something came up. Next time! Next time I'll treat you to Korean beef. Sorry about this!"

With that, Kim Chan-bin hung up the phone. Liu Baiyuan stared at the disconnected screen on his phone and couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "Ugh... this guy can't resist women..."

He was 100% certain that this guy had seen another beautiful woman on his way here, and this wasn't the first time. Moreover, just before he hung up the phone, he heard someone call his name next to him.

Sitting in the shop, Liu Baiyuan felt a sense of absurdity; he had actually been stood up...

After letting out a speechless laugh, he prepared to stand up and leave. Since the people who were looking for him weren't coming, he might as well go to JYP and finish his song.

Just as he stood up to leave, suddenly, a familiar face walked into the coffee shop.

"peach?"

"Oppa?!"

Yes, the person who came was indeed his dear younger sister, Hirai Momo, but because she was wearing a hat and a mask, he didn't quite recognize her at first...

"Oppa, what are you doing here?"

"Um... never mind."

Hirai Momo sat down next to him with a look of surprise, and Liu Baiyuan then asked her:

"Aren't you supposed to be forbidden from going out by yourselves? What's going on here...?"

Liu Baiyuan didn't see anyone else nearby, so he asked her curiously. Hirai Momo smiled and smiled, her eyes crinkling.

"Of course, I came out with Mina and the others, but they went to the mall across the street, and I didn't want to go, so I waited for them here."

Although they are strictly controlled when going out, the company tries to relax them in some ways. For example, at this time, as long as they don't wander around and obediently find a place to wait, their managers won't interfere.

We can go back together when we go back.

Liu Baiyuan nodded, and just as he was about to say something, a girl suddenly came up to him in front of Hirai Momo and said to him shyly:

"Oh, perhaps... I could have your contact information?"
