Peninsula 2017: Is the system living in the past?

Chapter 118 Tacit Understanding (Please Subscribe)

Tick-tock...

The sound of an electronic lock unlocking.

Lee Juri, who had just mentioned freeloading, turned around with a look of confusion on her face.

Thinking to myself, it can't be such a coincidence that she came back after I only mentioned Jiang Xingchen once, right?

But she soon realized she was wrong.

Lee Ji-eun poked her head in through the crack in the door.

He noticed that Lee Juri was staring in their direction and couldn't help but feel a little strange.

I glanced behind the door twice, and after noticing nothing unusual, I carefully walked in.

They were also carrying one or two bags in their hands.

"Ji-eun, what brings you here?"

Upon seeing her, Park Jiyeon immediately stood up and quickly went to greet her.

"I'm on my way to SBS TV station, and I just stopped by here to take a look," Lee Ji-eun said with a smile, opening her arms and giving Park Ji-yeon a light hug.

She knew that T-ara had recently accepted an invitation to perform at the Incheon concert.

So I knew they would definitely be rehearsing here these days.

I just happened to be passing by, so I came up to take a look.

As she spoke, she walked up to Lee Qri and Park Hyomin, and handed them the bag in her hand, "Qri unnie, Hyomin unnie, I brought you coffee and drinks."

"Kamsahamnida..." Lee Juri smiled and accepted it, then invited her to sit down, "Jie-eun, you're so busy, you don't need to be so polite."

"Kenchana, anyway, Hante oppa is here!"

Hearing her say that, Lee Ji-eun waved her hand, indicating that Jung Han-te knew she was coming here, so he planned the time in advance, reserved the items, and then went to pick them up.

Aside from the intermediate stops, it didn't take much time.

"Jung Han Tei is really reliable!"

When Jung Han-te was mentioned, Lee Juri couldn't help but praise him.

Compared to him, Li Hexiu is completely unreliable.

However, this wasn't said here.

After all, it's an internal matter.

Then, Lee Ji-eun turned to Park Ji-yeon: "Ji-yeon, isn't the cool guy advisor here?"

Cool Guy Consultant Nim?

Does this refer to Jiang Xingchen?

Upon hearing this distinctive nickname, Lee Qri turned her gaze toward Park Jiyeon.

Perhaps he guessed what she was thinking.

Park Jiyeon nodded slightly before responding to Lee Ji-eun's question.

"Star Oppa isn't here. Are you planning to ask him for more guidance? Don't you still have to go to the TV station?"

"Star Oppa?"

Lee Ji-eun keenly noticed the change in address.

Even when repeating the word "Oppa," he made a bubble sound.

"When did you change your tune?"

Park Jiyeon was taken aback, clearly not expecting Lee Ji-eun's focus to be on this, rather than on her teasing about her dancing.

"We're just getting to know each other, and I'm younger than him, is it okay for me to call him that?"

Did I say there was a problem?

Lee Ji-eun countered with a question.

With just one sentence, Park Ji-yeon was silenced.

He rushed to explain without saying anything.

What are you trying to explain?

That's so hard to guess...

"It's getting late, you should go now."

Not knowing how to respond, Park Jiyeon noticed Park Hyomin and Lee Qri trying to suppress their laughter out of the corner of her eye, and her cheeks suddenly flushed.

He placed both hands on Lee Ji-eun's shoulders and turned her around.

He muttered to himself, "Don't let this interfere with your work," and pushed her outside the door.

Lee Ji-eun wasn't annoyed.

Smiling, he approached her, said "Hail" and then put on his mask and headed towards the elevator.

Click...

The practice room door closed again.

The commotion that had just occurred subsided.

Despite being teased, Park Jiyeon calmly returned and slowly ate her dinner again.

Although the review just said it wasn't delicious, it was only in comparison to Jiang Xingchen's cooking skills.

If you really don't like it, then don't eat it...

When Jiang Xingchen comes back later, she'll be exhausted.

Ring ring.

I'd barely taken two bites when my phone rang again.

She thought that Lee Ji-eun wanted to tease her a bit more while they were still on the road, so she deliberately waited a while before getting her phone.

Who knew it was Jiang Xingchen calling?

He blinked twice quickly, then silently put down the lunchbox and answered the phone.

This brief wait made Jiang Xingchen mistakenly believe that she had disturbed their practice.

"Ani...have you finished your business?"

"Half and half."

"6

What does "half and half" mean?

"It's hard to explain over the phone in a short time."

"Then why did you call?"

"We're coming back now, let me ask you what kind of coffee you'd like."

"Ji-eun was just here."

"Is she still not giving up?"

Jiang Xingchen's voice rose slightly over the receiver.

I actually tried to give some pointers in the practice room last time.

But Lee Ji-eun, this famous solo player, seems to have her brain and body in two separate departments.

There are some obstacles in communication.

"Maybe," Park Jiyeon smiled, "You have to have dreams!"

"For IUI, this dream is pretty grand!"

Jiang Xingchen remained silent for a moment, then gave a serious comment.

After saying that, he estimated the time it would take to get to the practice room and then hung up the phone.

"Eun-jung?"

More than forty minutes later.

In the corridor where the practice room is located.

Jiang Xingchen, who had rushed back from Xinshadong, looked at the figure walking ahead and called out in confusion.

Upon hearing his voice, the figure in front turned around.

It was Xian Enjing.

She probably didn't expect Jiang Xingchen to appear behind her. With a hint of surprise in her eyes, she pointed to the closed practice room door.

"I was out running errands."

Jiang Xingchen, who understood instantly, explained with a smile and then asked about things on set.

The people who were supposed to be filming in Nanyangzhou are here.

It's highly likely that there was a problem with the filming.

"Yes, there's a problem with the equipment, and it can't be fixed in a short time, so we're taking a break!"

"Then tomorrow morning?"

Jiang Xingchen frowned slightly.

According to his and Lee Jae-jin's plan, they were to go to the film set tomorrow morning to help Lee Joo-yeon with her styling.

The filming has encountered an unexpected situation, which may cause problems with the schedule.

"PDnim said to proceed as usual and asked me to let you know."

"That's fine then."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xingchen stopped worrying about it and just wanted to make sure it didn't affect his plans.

As they were talking, they had already reached the door.

Enter the password with practiced ease.

The moment the door opened, he put his hand on Ham Eun-jung's shoulder and pushed her inside.

"Surprise...look who I brought back!"

"Eun-jung?"

"Eun-jung unnie!"

After the meal, the three of them, who were taking a short rest, stared blankly at Ham Eun-jung as she walked in from outside.

Surprise...

"7

Ham Eun-jung noticed the interesting expressions on their faces.

His mischievous nature also emerged.

She broke free from Jiang Xingchen's large hand, jumped forward, raised her hands above her head, and made a big heart shape.

With that, the three of them came to their senses.

He immediately asked what had happened.

So, Ham Eun-jung repeated the explanation she had given to Kang Sung-chen earlier.

"Unnie, how about tomorrow morning?"

At that moment, Park Jiyeon asked a question.

Upon hearing this, Ham Eun-jung glanced at her, then turned back to look at Kang Sung-chen.

Pause for a second.

"The original plan remains unchanged."

"Oh, that's good..."
