The peninsula spans mountains and seas just for you.

Jessica inquired about Li Qingshan at the company and found out that he existed, but had not yet come to report for duty.

She was filled with intense curiosity about Li Qingshan, and everything that happened last night kept replaying in her mind like a movie.

In her eyes, Li Qingshan was tall, handsome, mature, calm, and mysterious.

This is absolutely irresistible; it has an irresistible attraction for young girls.

As soon as she returned to the practice room, Lim Yoona came over with a newspaper.

Im Yoona seemed very nervous, and mysteriously pulled Jessica aside, handing her the newspaper.

Jessica was completely confused and looked down at the newspaper.

The news report showed a photo of a man dressed in black and wearing a mask lying on the ground with a sharp knife next to him.

Looking at the contents, it said that someone found the person dead in the alley in the morning, and she only realized what had happened after seeing the address.

The two women exchanged a glance, both somewhat flustered. This was the man they had encountered in the alley last night.

He was already dead. Lin Yoona still remembered the way the person was lying on the ground, exactly the same as the one they had seen last night.

The news reported that he died from a blow to the nose that caused a piece of bone to pierce his brain; it was a fatal blow.

The two of them were uneasy all day, their hearts hanging in the balance, worried that the police would suddenly come knocking on their door. Jessica suggested that they stop talking about it and pretend they knew nothing.

Another day passed, and at noon, Yoona and several teammates had just finished practicing and were having lunch at the SM Entertainment cafeteria.

While queuing for food, she saw a familiar person sitting in a corner.

Li Qingshan noticed someone watching him, turned around, and saw it was Lin Yoona, so he smiled and nodded.

Lin Yoona and Li Qingshan exchanged glances, and she quickly pretended not to see him, but her strong curiosity drove her to keep stealing glances at Li Qingshan, making her look extremely cute.

Li Qingshan found her behavior amusing and paid it no mind.

After getting their food, Yoona, Yuri, and Hyoyeon went looking for seats, only to find that Lee Cheong-san's table was empty.

The group then headed in that direction. Lin Yoona actually didn't want to go; she was a little afraid of Li Qingshan.

The three women greeted Li Qingshan and then sat down at the table together.

Yoona kept her head down as she ate, not daring to look up. Yuri and Hyoyeon saw a handsome guy sitting in front of them.

Yuri became interested and prepared to get to know them, only to find that the other person couldn't understand them, so she had no choice but to eat quietly.

Jessica had just gone to the restroom. After getting her food, she saw Yoona and then noticed Lee Cheong-san was there too.

She wasn't scared at all and even greeted him happily.

"Hi! Why didn't you come yesterday?" Jessica sat down next to Li Qingshan, her face beaming with a bright smile.

"Something came up yesterday, so I'm only reporting today," Li Qingshan replied with a smile, his tone relaxed and natural.

The two chatted casually as they ate, while Yuri and Hyoyeon watched them curiously.

Yoona was conflicted, but she was too timid to speak. Her heart was pounding like a rabbit's.

"We'll keep that a secret, don't worry, they won't understand," Jessica said mysteriously, her expression very serious.

Li Qingshan didn't answer, but just smiled and nodded, continuing to eat with elegant and composed movements.

In the following days, Jessica would go to see Li Qingshan whenever she had time. Seeing that nothing had happened after so many days, Lin Yoona gradually forgot her fear and also went to play with Li Qingshan.

There's been a rumor circulating among the company's trainees lately that Jessica has a crush on a trainee from the US.

The trainee manager found Jessica and later learned that they were from the same place and that she was teaching Lee Cheong San Peninsula dialect.

The person in charge told her to keep her distance and not cause any trouble before her debut, and that was the end of it.

Li Qingshan became famous, but not for a good reason.

He never bows or greets anyone he meets at the company. He is tall, strong, and handsome, which makes him the envy of many.

The company values ​​him highly and plans to develop him into an actor, so they are relatively lenient with him in terms of rules in the early stages.

But some people didn't like him, and that's when the incident happened in the cafeteria.

Lee Cheong-san was queuing for food when Kangin, a debut artist from Super Junior, cut in front of him. Lee Cheong-san didn't say anything, but Kangin pointed at him and told him to go to the back of the line and queue up again.

Li Qingshan ignored him and shoved him away, causing him to stumble and fall to the ground.

Kangin lost face in front of many trainees and celebrities, and instantly became furious, his face turning bright red.

It was his trainee friend who stopped him: "You can't fight here. If you're going to fight, find a secluded place."

Someone suggested something to Kangin, and he was dragged away, his face flushed, his eyes filled with anger and resentment.

Li Qingshan thought the matter was over and didn't take it to heart, continuing to do as he pleased.

In the afternoon, after finishing his language class, Li Qingshan went to the hallway to smoke. Just as he lit his cigarette, he saw Kangin following him.

Kangin and three others cornered Lee Cheong-san in the stairwell and said a lot of things to him, but Lee Cheong-san didn't understand.

Kangin suddenly knocked Lee Cheong-san's cigarette away and prepared to strangle him.

Lee Cheong-san swiftly punched Kang-in in the liver with his right hand, while his left hand grabbed Kang-in's neck and slammed him against the wall.

At this moment, Kangin's face had turned liver-colored, and the veins on his neck and forehead were bulging. He felt like he was about to die and was having difficulty breathing.

Being hit in the liver is extremely painful, and Kangin's current appearance fully illustrates this point; his expression is contorted with pain.

The people nearby were stunned by the sudden turn of events and were about to step forward to help.

Li Qingshan released Kangin and punched each of them, causing them all to fall to the ground with clean and swift movements.

Li Qingshan glanced around, took out another cigarette, lit it, walked over to Qiangren, squatted down, blew a puff of smoke into Qiangren's face, and smiled, a hint of disdain in his smile.

Kangin was finally scared. He never wanted to experience that kind of pain again in his life, and his eyes were filled with fear.

The group was still recovering from the pain on the ground when Li Qingshan took a few puffs of his cigarette, threw it away, and walked out of the building with firm steps.

Li Qingshan continued attending various courses, and no one bothered him anymore, as if he had gained an invisible deterrent force.

"I heard you beat up Kangin?" Yoona and Jessica asked Lee Cheong-san quietly in the cafeteria.

"How did you know?" Li Qingshan put down his chopsticks, his brow furrowed slightly. "How could such a trivial matter spread?"

"Tell us about it," Yoona asked with an interested look, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.

Li Qingshan tapped her forehead with one finger and pushed her away a little, saying, "Your drool is dripping into my bowl."

Over the next two weeks, Li Qingshan's relationship with Lin Yoona and Jessica grew closer, and they became good friends who could joke around freely.

That day, Li Qingshan received a phone call, and he hurriedly booked the fastest flight to return to America.

He found Jessica and Yoona, and said, "I'm going back to America. I'm leaving tonight."

After learning about the incident at Li Qingshan's family, the two women didn't ask many questions, but their eyes were full of concern.

"Will you come back?" Jessica asked nervously, her voice trembling slightly.

"See? I'll contact you when I get back. Anyway, we have ways to stay in touch."

After saying goodbye to the two, Li Qingshan went to the airport without even informing SM Entertainment, and left in a hurry.

After Li Qingshan arrived in San Francisco, he went to the police station and learned the truth about the investigation.

His adoptive father, Chen Guofu, died in a fire at home.

Among the belongings was a bank card, registered to Li Qingshan.

He handled his adoptive father's funeral arrangements and checked the bank account, discovering over two million US dollars inside.

He then got into Harvard and lived in Cambridge ever since, starting a new chapter in his life.

He studied economics and psychology, achieved excellent grades, and received scholarships every year, demonstrating exceptional intelligence and talent.

He often keeps in touch with Jessica and Yoona, since he doesn't have many friends and they have become a warm haven in his life.

During his studies, he and two close friends worked in finance and became top individual investors.

Their battleground is in the fields of futures, stocks, and cryptocurrencies, where they have achieved remarkable success thanks to their keen insight and decisive decision-making.

He also secretly investigated the cause of his adoptive father's death, and eventually found out.

Someone was investigating Li Qingshan, and his adoptive father, fearing exposure, chose to commit suicide to cut off the clues and destroy all traces.

He understood his adoptive father's meaning. If his adoptive father didn't die, they would face constant trouble and never have peace in their lives. Anyway, his adoptive father was old, so it was better to save one of them.

He was smart; he didn't insist on figuring out exactly what happened, otherwise his adoptive father's death would have been in vain. He chose to let go and find peace.

He also settled down to start his own business and became an independent investor. He didn't give up his studies either, and even earned two degrees, making his path in life increasingly broad.

Over the years, he gradually realized that he had fallen in love with both of them—yes, he liked both of them.

They shared their joy at their debut success, offered words of comfort during the Black Sea incident, celebrated Gee's success, and went on to become a sensation and reach the top. They shared every important moment.

Almost eight years have passed since 2006. During this time, Li Qingshan has visited the Peninsula several times. Their current popularity is no joke.

He was a big star. He never went to the peninsula again after 12 years. He was also busy. In 12 years, he bought a lot of Tesla and various high-tech company stocks for long-term investment.

During this time, he was also thinking about which of the two women to choose, what to do if he liked both of them.

Adults have to make every choice they make, right? How will they know if they don't try?

However, Li Qingshan actually prefers Lin Yoona more; he likes Lin Yoona's personality a bit more.

When I was in the US, I would watch their various videos on YouTube.

He felt that the two women must also have a good impression of him; this was a conclusion he reached after testing them.

Having finally settled things in the United States, he decided to go to the Korean Peninsula.
