Peninsula: My Top-Tier Landlord

Editing, adding subtitles, and inserting sound effects—this couldn't be done in one night. By 11 PM, Bae Joo-hyun and Kang Seul-gi had already gone home.

Since he had the day off tomorrow, Ye Fan stayed up until 1 a.m. to finish editing the video. He hadn't even added the subtitles yet, and he was feeling a bit exhausted, so he went to take a shower and rest.

Before going to sleep, I told my fans in my group chat that I would be posting a daily video in the next couple of days, and that there would be a mystery guest.

Ye Fan is asleep, but it's only a little past midnight in China, and there are plenty of night owls.

Upon seeing Ye Fan's message, the night owls in the group went wild.

"Holy crap, could it be one of those girls from before coming back?"

"The path to becoming an emperor is never smooth sailing; this tribulation is called love!"

"No, I hate it! We're already enjoying a life of luxury?"

"Could it be that doctor I flirted with before?"

"I guess it's that music student."

"All the female guests he posts about are beautiful, and I'm envious of every single one of them!"

"Abandon, abandon!"

"I hate people who just drop a message and run away!"

"Hey bro upstairs, you're still talking about abandoning things? While you were abandoning them, the Emperor was already 'oh yes, very good!'"

"It's okay, the emperor speaks Korean, and when he's not feeling well, he'll pretend to be Korean."

Messages kept popping up in the group, with people speculating which guest from previous episodes this was. The main problem was that all the female guests Ye Fan posted were beautiful, and it was infuriating no matter which one they were!

He actually got to eat it!

When Ye Fan woke up the next day, he saw 99+ group messages and many people tagging him, telling him to pretend to be Korean when he wasn't feeling well.

Ye Fan couldn't hold back anymore. It turned out these guys thought the girls he flirted with in the videos had come looking for him.

That's perfect. What will their reaction be when the video is released and they see Bae Joo-hyun instead of those girls?

"It should be a lot of fun," Ye Fan said without answering their questions. He simply replied, "Stay tuned," and then went to wash up and continue editing the video.

"Hello, Mom, what's wrong? Is there something you need?"

Bae Joo-hyun was washing up, planning to go to Ye Fan's place later to see how his video editing was going, when she received a call from her mother, Choi Min-joo, right after she finished brushing her teeth.

"Do you have any free time these next couple of days?" My mother's gentle laughter came through the phone.

"Yes, I've had quite a bit of free time lately. What's up?"

"I'm going to Seoul tomorrow, and I was just wondering if you have time. If you do, invite your sister out for a meal. And if Xiao Ye is free, invite him too."

Bae Joo-hyun: !!

"I'll ask him about it later."

After hanging up the phone, Bae Joo-hyun got dressed and went out, arriving at Ye Fan's house with practiced ease.

Ye Fan opened the door to let Bae Joo-hyun in, and asked in surprise, "Why are you here so early?"

It's just past 11 o'clock now; classes start after 7 o'clock.

"I didn't have anything to do today, so I came over a little early. I also wanted to see how your video editing is going." Bae Joo-hyun changed into her slippers and followed Ye Fan into the living room.

"I'm adding subtitles right now, I'm only halfway through."

"If you want to study, then continue reviewing the pinyin we taught yesterday. If you don't understand anything, just ask me." Ye Fan sat back down at the computer and continued his work.

Bae Joo-hyun pulled up a stool and sat down next to Ye Fan instead of going to the sofa to read. Her lips were slightly parted, and she looked hesitant.

Ye Fan was diligently editing a video when the familiar scent wafted over. He glanced at Bae Joo-hyun, and seeing her expression, he asked, "Is something the matter?"

"Um... my mom's coming tomorrow and she said she'd like to have dinner together. Are you free?"

"Is your mother-in-law here?"

Ye Fan paused in his typing, stopped working, and turned to look at Bae Joo-hyun.

Her face flushed red at being addressed as "mother-in-law," and she playfully slapped him, saying, "What mother-in-law?!"

"I'm your boyfriend now, so it's okay for me to call you mother-in-law, right?" Ye Fan said with a smile.

"I have to work during the day, but I can work at night."

"But it still depends on what you think."

Ye Fan threw the choice back to Bae Joo-hyun. They were still mainly pretending to be a couple. The agreement was that Ye Fan would help Bae Joo-hyun deal with possible inquiries from her family, so the decision was still in Bae Joo-hyun's hands.

Bae Joo-hyun bit her lip and pondered for a while. She remembered that when this scene was first started, Seulgi suggested that if her parents came to visit, she should just find an excuse to get by.

But the situation is different now.

"Then... I'll have to trouble you."

"Okay, I'll take care of it." Ye Fan gave an OK sign.

Seeing Ye Fan's confident demeanor, Bae Joo-hyun was rather curious as to why he didn't seem nervous at all. Usually, people are usually very nervous and apprehensive when meeting their elders, aren't they?

Even if you're just pretending, you'd still feel nervous, right?

"Aren't you nervous?"

Ye Fan shook his head. Why was he nervous?

The identities are different; just think of it as having a meal with a friend's parents.

Bae Joo-hyun pouted slightly. She had wanted to see Ye Fan nervous, but seeing that Ye Fan was in good spirits, she was curious to see how he would deal with his mother tomorrow.

After discussing the matter, Ye Fan agreed, and Bae Joo-hyun breathed a sigh of relief. She then watched Ye Fan edit the video, adding subtitles and some interesting sound effects, which made Bae Joo-hyun laugh.

Then came the editing of dance videos and some cut-out clips. The longest of these videos was about two minutes long, while the others were only ten or twenty seconds long. The workload wasn't heavy, and it was all finished by the afternoon.

"ah!!"

After finishing the last video and clicking save, Ye Fan stretched and yawned.

Finally finished editing!

Why do I feel like if I keep editing like this, I could apply for a job as an editor at a company if I don't stay at the institution as a teacher?

"You've worked hard~" Bae Joo-hyun clapped her hands and looked at him with a smile.

"Actually, it's okay. It's just that I went to the gym yesterday, and now my limbs are a bit sore and uncomfortable."

Ye Fan raised his hand to demonstrate, and Bae Joo-hyun could see that his hand was trembling slightly.

This is what happens when you don't exercise for a long time and then suddenly go to the gym. Even though I did warm-up exercises with Bae Joo-hyun before exercising, it still hurts.

"It's because you haven't exercised in a long time, that's why you're like this. Anyway, you've already got a membership card, so go exercise when you have time." Bae Joo-hyun patted his shoulder and suggested that he exercise occasionally.

Otherwise, having to sit and record videos, do live streams, and edit them after class every day will cause health problems.

"Thank you for reminding me."

Ye Fan stood up. It was already 5 o'clock; it was time to go buy groceries and cook.

"Want to go to the supermarket together?"

"good!"
