People on the Peninsula: I Became a Lucky Koi

"Anti?"

"...I already have an anti?" Kim Chan's cheerful expression made Lim Nayeon and the others anxious.

Sana Minatozaki felt like this guy was even a beat slower than Momo: "Chan! Do you even know how crazy the antis can be?"

"Having this much attention before even debuting, isn't that something to be happy about?" Kim Chan shrugged.

The universe is so vast that no one cares whether you're reading Shakespeare or royal films; the same applies to black and red.

"Besides, hasn't it already been clarified?"

"They should regain some of their senses..."

Jin Can seemed somewhat uncertain about this statement.

It's hard to judge the behavior and thoughts of die-hard fans... after all, some fans really do stupid things.

For example, when both companies have already clarified the situation.

With fans jumping around like this, aren't you just making sure your Geigei is being cuckolded?

Hirai Momo shook her head: "They're like madmen."

She had just peeked out the window and the sight was terrifying.

"Kenchana." Jin Can didn't want to dwell on this topic any longer.

Nayeon sniffed: "Chan, you and Taeyeon sunbaenim?"

She pursed her lips, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated...

There was no gossip in her eyes; instead, her lips, white from being bumped by her rabbit teeth, showed some nervousness.

"Fake!"

Jin Can looked dejected: "But the person who was photographed was indeed me."

"Please, you're not even an adult yet!" Chou Tzu-yu, standing prettily to the side, frowned and stared at her royal brother. "How can you drink alcohol..."

Her focus is quite peculiar.

Furthermore, Jin Can was still very grateful for the way her mother had shown her before the Lunar New Year.

However, Tzuyu was a bit shy. Every time she wanted to thank this royal brother properly, he would mysteriously disappear. Later, she overheard Nayeon and the others chatting and found out that he was going to debut.

Little Chou Tzu-yu only then realized the difference between royalty and ordinary trainees…

"Tzuyu-xi, that's quite presumptuous of you..." Jin Can glanced at her helplessly.

He had a deep impression of that dark-skinned little girl and how she used to play with crickets.

Seeing that Jin Can didn't appreciate it, Zhou Ziyu grinned sheepishly, showing her white teeth, and then pursed her lips and said nothing more.

But Mo Ya looked at Jin Can's arrogant and cocky attitude.

"What's with the attitude?"

Chou Tzu-yu puffed out her cheeks, her eyebrows drooping slightly, and couldn't help but mutter angrily in Mandarin, "Like a dog biting Lü Dongbin..."

The soft, sweet voice of complaint reached Jin Can's ears.

He raised his eyelids and gave Chou Tzu-yu a meaningful look.

Chou Tzu-yu immediately put on an innocent and adorable smile, looking a little guilty, and blinked her eyelashes.

What are you looking at?

You don't understand...

Omitted~

Yoo Jeongyeon asked calmly, "So what's going on, Chan?"

"Jackson, Bambam, and I went to a club last night and ran into Nichkhun and TTS, so we hung out for a while," Kim Chan summarized briefly. "..."

Lim Na-yeon's eyes widened: "That's it?"

"That's it!" Kim Chan sat on the stairs, looking at Lee Chaeryeong, Lee Chae-yeon, Somi, and Minatozaki Sana's faces as they listened to the story, and found it quite amusing.

"So, there's no need to worry..."

"Go practice!"

The royal brother's words were quite effective; immediately, birds and beasts scattered in the stairwell.

But the cherry blossom line, along with Lim Nayeon, Yoo Jeongyeon, and Chou Tzuyu, are still standing in the same spot.

"Aren't you guys going to practice?" Jin Can asked curiously. These six were all on the SIXTEEN audition list, so their future looked promising.

Yu Dingyan looked at him helplessly: "I was worried about you, my friend."

"There are some crazy fans downstairs..."

Nayeon nodded vigorously: "If you want coffee these next couple of days, I can have Jeongyeon bring it for you. It's best if you don't go downstairs alone while you're at the company."

This arrangement made things perfectly clear for Yu Dingyan.

"Kamsammida~" Kim Chan smiled gratefully.

Although this star trainee of the company is a bit extravagant, he is still very generous and righteous.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been secretly admired by her best friend Bambam...

Sana Minatozaki thought the same thing as Nayeon Lim, but Nayeon beat her to it, so Sana Minatozaki shut up.

...

...

After half an hour.

Bae Suzy successfully caught Kim Chan at the company and questioned him about what happened last night.

But she didn't suspect anything between the younger man and Kim Tae-yeon; she just asked him how he planned to handle the current public opinion and observed his mood.

After leaving Miss A's practice room.

Jin Can returned to his practice room.

He opened his phone and accepted the friend request that had popped up on Kakao earlier.

Through Bae Suzy, Kim Chan learned about the friend request from the stranger, which was sent by Kim Tae-yeon.

He sent a [smiling] emoji.

...

On the other end.

Kim Tae-yeon, who had just arrived at the company, met the pretty boy.

"Nuna".

Byun Baekhyun looked somewhat embarrassed and apologetic. "This morning I..."

In the morning, he saw the clarification from the company and JYP, but then he saw that the mysterious man from last night was actually the same one he had met at the Beijing airport.

It felt like a thorn had been stuck in Byun Baekhyun's heart.

He didn't consider himself a petty person, so Byun Baekhyun quickly came to apologize and admit his mistake, hoping to ease the tension.

He knew about the older man's personality.

Kim Tae-yeon glanced at him from the sofa in the practice room, remaining silent.

"Mian ah, I know my attitude was wrong, but noona." Byun Baekhyun squatted down beside her, looking up at Kim Tae-yeon with a sincere expression: "Any man would lose his temper after seeing those photos, right?"

Kim Tae-yeon opened her mouth, as if she was about to say something.

However, I also sensed a subtle lack of confidence emanating from Byun Baekhyun. Ultimately, this emotion was not just a lack of self-confidence or inferiority complex.

And it's her distrust of her partner.

She forced a laugh, "Kenchana~"

"Don't overthink it, Baekhyun."

Kim Tae-yeon was feeling a bit exhausted; after a night of heavy drinking, she had to work with the company to deal with public opinion.

Now we have to take care of Byun Baekhyun's pride.

"As for what happened this morning, let's just let it go..."

She was determined to put an end to this matter.

"It's good that you're not angry..." Byun Baekhyun immediately beamed and reached out to hold Kim Tae-yeon's hand.

But just as he was about to touch Kim Tae-yeon's hand.

Kim Tae-yeon's hand instinctively shrank back, her movements somewhat evasive.

Just then, a "A-Dou~" notification sound from Kakao rang out.

She quickly lowered her head and pretended to casually rummage through her bag for her phone.

"..."

Byun Baekhyun's smile froze, and he seemed to choke.

[Smile]

Kim Tae-yeon saw the message sent by Kim Chan after he accepted her friend request.

The user typed on the screen: "[Is it convenient to take this call?]"

Byun Baekhyun hesitated, took a deep breath, and finally forced a smile before asking, "Who is Noona chatting with?"

Kim Tae-yeon's tone, like her eyebrows, was indifferent: "Someone you care about a lot."

From this morning until now, Byun Baekhyun has brought her a series of negative emotions.

This made Kim Tae-yeon suspicious.

...Is there not even a little bit of trust between us?

So she played her card openly: "Golden Splendor".

The air in the practice room suddenly became eerily quiet…

Byun Baekhyun, who had been able to maintain a smile, was now pale.
