Peninsula: My Top-Tier Landlord

Chapter 39: Declaring Sovereignty?

Having her thoughts exposed, Bae Joo-hyun stammered, unsure of what to say.

Seeing that Park Soo-young and Kang Seul-gi were staring at her, Bae Joo-hyun opened her mouth, but in the end, not knowing what to say, she just nodded.

She did have some affection for Ye Fan. When she was with him, she not only didn't feel repulsed, but actually felt very relaxed. In addition, after spending time with him several times, she found that he was a very nice person.

"Haha, that's right, unnie."

Kang Seulgi and Park Sooyoung exchanged a glance, both seeing the smile in each other's eyes.

That's right, you're not getting any younger, so if you meet someone you like, just go for it!

They could all tell from what happened last night that this older sister had feelings for Ye Fan, her fake brother-in-law. Knowing that someone was pursuing him, she went straight to the neighborhood and then wanted to go to his house, her eyes constantly glancing at him.

"Unnie, if that's the case, then let's charge forward!" Kang Seulgi gave her older sister a thumbs up to encourage her.

"What's the rush? Ye Fan doesn't want to be in a relationship." Bae Joo-hyun lifted her foot and hugged her knees. She had already asked him today, and it was true that she had feelings for him, but she wondered if their relationship would become strange after they got together.

In addition...

"He's seven years younger than me."

This age difference has always been a thorn in Bae Joo-hyun's side, mainly because the age gap is quite large.

"Oh unnie, so what if he's 7 years younger? As long as he likes you, that's all that matters. Besides, don't a lot of boys like older women?" Kang Seulgi covered her face, feeling that this older woman was just worrying unnecessarily. Being 7 years older isn't the same as being 70 years older, so what's there to worry about?

Park Soo-young also agreed, "Yeah, as long as you like each other, the age difference isn't a problem. Seven years isn't that big, and I don't think my brother-in-law would mind."

"But not wanting to be in a relationship is indeed a bit troublesome..." Kang Seulgi pinched her chin and began to think.

"Not wanting to be in a relationship usually means you haven't met someone you like. Like my sister, she said she didn't want to be in a relationship before." Park Soo-young didn't take it seriously. She believed that if you like someone, you will definitely want to be in a relationship with them. It's impossible for someone not to want to develop a relationship with someone they like.

Besides, feelings can be impulsive. If you have a good first impression and your heart is fluttering, then go for it, otherwise someone else will easily snatch it away.

"Unnie, I'm here to help you!" Kang Seulgi thought of an idea, patted her chest, and said to Bae Joohyun.

In this matter, Kang Seulgi is practically a genius at coming up with ideas.

"Unnie, I'll help you too!" Park Soo-young excitedly raised her hand; she definitely had to get involved in something like this.

"How will you help?" Bae Joo-hyun blinked, not understanding what Kang Seul-gi was thinking about again.

"Hmph, you can leave it to me without worry."

The next day, Ye Fan arrived at the organization and was greeted by Wu Yingying, who looked both resentful and admiring.

She had been so proactive that day, yet Ye Fan remained unmoved and even took her home. It was truly rare.

Wu Yingying ran up to Ye Fan again and started talking to him, asking all sorts of questions, which Ye Fan answered in a disjointed manner.

Turning your head, you can see He Zhonglei's teasing smile.

"Teacher Ye, someone is looking for you."

Upon hearing the sound, all the teachers in the office looked up. Ye Fan also glanced at the door and frowned in confusion when he saw the two short men.

Why are they here?

It was Kang Seulgi and Bae Joo-hyun who arrived. Both of them were wearing masks. Bae Joo-hyun was carrying a bag in her hand. After scanning the office, her gaze fell on Ye Fan.

Wu Yingying frowned slightly. Although they were wearing masks, the two girls had a great presence and seemed very beautiful. Dangerous.

"Are those two your friends?"

"Um."

Ye Fan stood up. "Excuse me for a moment."

Arriving at the door, Ye Fan asked curiously, "Why are you here?"

Bae Joo-hyun handed over the bag she was carrying. "I brought you something."

Ye Fan's expression was strange. What was going on here?

Sensing the gossipy gazes in the office, Ye Fan took the bag and gestured for them to go to the corridor to talk.

"Hehe, brother-in-law, are you upset that we interrupted your good time?" Kang Seulgi teased, as she saw Ye Fan chatting with the female colleague in the photo as soon as she arrived.

Bae Joo-hyun didn't say anything, just looked at Ye Fan. She did feel a little uncomfortable when she saw that scene.

"What good thing did you interrupt? You two came at the perfect time, giving me a break. But what brings you two here? Couldn't you have just sent a message if you needed anything?"

"And they even brought me something special."

Ye Fan glanced down at the bag and found it contained coffee and some desserts.

He wasn't surprised that Kang Seulgi came; she had come once before. What was unusual was that Bae Joo-hyun also came this time, bringing gifts.

"Could it be that your family has come again?" Ye Fan thought that this was the only possibility.

"Can't I even come and see?" Bae Joo-hyun didn't answer, but instead asked Ye Fan.

"Of course, I'm just curious what you're here for," Ye Fan shook his head.

"Brother-in-law, Unnie is here to assert her dominance this time," Kang Seulgi said with a smile.

It was naturally her suggestion, but this time the unnie readily accepted it.

"Declare sovereignty?" Ye Fan tilted his head, his expression like that of an elderly person looking at their phone on the subway.

This word sounds normal, so why does it sound so abnormal?

What's the point of asserting sovereignty?

He thought Kang Seulgi was joking, but when Bae Joo-hyun nodded, Ye Fan was speechless. It really was true!

"Knowing that some girl is having designs on you, Unnie can't sit still. You're Unnie's boyfriend now, so naturally she has to come and assert her dominance."

"But it's fake."

Ye Fan couldn't quite understand their thought process. They were just pretending to be a couple, so what was there to assert their dominance over?

"That's still your boyfriend, you got paid for it."

Ye Fan: emmm...

"So that's why you came?"

"There's one more thing, concerning your work," Bae Joo-hyun interjected this time.

"What?"

"Aren't you a Chinese teacher? I'd like to ask you to teach me Chinese, like a private tutor, and I'll pay you for it," Bae Joo-hyun said.

"Huh?" Ye Fan was completely bewildered.

"Don't you have a Chinese teacher?"

"Yes, but you have to learn it at a company, so it's quite troublesome."

"What, you don't want to teach me?" Bae Joo-hyun used her gaze attack again.

"No, that's not it. If you really want to learn, of course you can." Ye Fan quickly shook his head. It would be a fool not to make money.

"It just feels a little strange."

"What's wrong?"

"I feel like I'm being kept by you." Ye Fan pondered for a moment. Now she's living in Bae Joo-hyun's house with half the rent, and then she's pretending to be her boyfriend. Now she's even paying him to learn Chinese.

"Being kept, brother-in-law, it does seem a bit like that." Kang Seulgi couldn't help but laugh, and the age was similar too.

Bae Joo-hyun patted his shoulder, somewhat embarrassed and annoyed. "What do you mean by 'kept woman'? That sounds so strange."
