Peninsula: My Top-Tier Landlord

The tavern was already quite crowded at this time, almost full, and very lively. Bae Joo-hyun followed closely behind Ye Fan and finally found Seulgi and the others in a corner. The two of them were the last to arrive.

"Brother-in-law, you and unnie are a bit late. You'll have to punish yourselves with a drink later," Seulgi said.

"There's no way around it, the traffic was a bit congested, and there wasn't a time limit, so why make them drink as a penalty?"

Ye Fan was about to agree, thinking that punishment was fine, it was just a cup of wine, but Bae Joo-hyun beat him to it.

Wow~

"With your brother-in-law's drinking capacity, one glass is nothing. Unnie, you're already protecting him?" Kang Seulgi looked her up and down, as if she were getting to know her sister all over again.

She knew the two of them had gone out on a date and shopping during the day, but she hadn't been this protective of her husband when they were drinking before. What happened to cause such a big change?

Park Soo-young and Bae Joo-hee watched with smiles on their faces, without participating.

Ye Fan greeted the two of them, then looked at the handsome guy sitting next to Park Soo-young. This must be Park Soo-young's boyfriend; he is indeed quite handsome.

Nodding, Ye Fan extended his hand to him and introduced himself, "Hello, my name is Ye Fan."

"Shin Hyo-seop, you can also call me Crush." ​​Shin Hyo-seop extended his hand and shook hands with him, his eyes filled with curiosity as he looked at Ye Fan.

Crush?

Ye Fan raised an eyebrow. This must be his stage name. When he heard this stage name, his first thought was that people online call their short-term ambiguous partners "Crush".

Shin Hyo-seop had been sizing up Ye Fan ever since he saw him. He was good-looking and young. He had come with Irene, so Shin Hyo-seop thought he was an SM artist.

But when Seulgi called him "brother-in-law," he was completely stunned.

Brother-in-law?

So, this Ye Fan is Irene's boyfriend?!

Amazing!

After getting together with Joy, he had dinner with Red Velvet many times. Irene's beauty is undeniable. He had brought friends before, but none of them made any progress. So he was very curious about Ye Fan.

How did he manage to win over Irene?

Judging from his young age, he should be around the same age as Joy, so wouldn't he be younger than Irene?

Kang Seulgi moved the packaging bag that was under the table to Bae Joohyun's feet. "Unnie, this is what you asked me to buy."

"This is troublesome."

"It's okay, but why did you give me this as a Christmas present, unnie?" Kang Seulgi's expression was a little strange.

The woman messaged me around noon, asking me to buy her two figurines on the way, the same kind I gave to her husband at the amusement park last time.

She knew her brother-in-law liked these things, but wasn't it a bit strange to give him this kind of gift for Christmas?

"He likes these things. Besides being practical, gifts should also reflect what the recipient is interested in," Bae Joo-hyun replied softly.

Ye Fan wasn't very interested in other things, and there weren't many other decorations in his house. He only wore a few clothes that he usually wore, which was very simple. She knew that was all Ye Fan was interested in.

She hadn't passed by such a shop during the day, otherwise she would have bought it herself and given it to Ye Fan. But it wouldn't be too late to give it to him later, and it would be a surprise for Ye Fan.

Ye Fan was listening to Park Soo-young introduce her boyfriend and didn't notice Bae Joo-hyun and Kang Seul-gi's conversation.

After getting to know each other a little, we chatted and played some drinking games.

The girls chatted about albums and music, while Ye Fan propped his head up with his hand and drank, pretending to listen attentively. Only when they talked about industry gossip, such as who cheated or had an affair, would Ye Fan come back to his senses. Listening to industry people talk about industry gossip was quite interesting.

Ye Fan was elbowed again. He turned to look at Bae Joo-hyun and whispered, "What's wrong?"

Bae Joo-hyun then picked up her wine glass and clinked it against Ye Fan's glass. Ye Fan understood and took a sip.

"You seem bored."

Ye Fan doesn't understand K-pop, rarely listens to songs, and doesn't even watch many TV dramas, so he definitely has no interest in talking about these work-related matters.

Joo-hee at least pays attention to things in the industry, and has learned a lot from what she sees and hears around her, so she can join in the conversation.

"It's okay, you two can chat if you want, I'll just listen." Ye Fan shook his head, smiled slightly at her, and told Pei Zhuxuan not to mind, as he himself didn't care.

Bae Joo-hyun frowned slightly, feeling that the invisible wall had reappeared, which she found extremely annoying.

"You're not imagining things again, are you?" Seeing Bae Joo-hyun's somewhat unhappy expression, Ye Fan added.

Bae Joo-hyun has a pretty good imagination; she once imagined a whole storyline just because of a single sentence about soundproofing.

"I'm being honest, I didn't find it boring at all. Listening to gossip is quite nice."

If we don't have anything in common, we can just be invisible. It's not necessary to use Stamcon. Besides, the person I'm meeting for the first time is Park Soo-young's boyfriend, so I don't need to put on any act in front of him.

It's not my turn to film yet, so I'll just stay on set.

But Bae Joo-hyun glared at Ye Fan and lightly stepped on the back of his foot.

"Ouch, why are you stepping on me?" Ye Fan tensed up, trying not to cry out. She ambushed me, a 25-year-old!

"I just want to step on you!"

Ye Fan was a little confused. Jiang Seulgi, who was standing next to him, noticed this and saw that the atmosphere between the unnie and her brother-in-law was a little subtle. No, to be precise, it seemed like the unnie was throwing a tantrum.

Her eyes darted around, and she quickly changed the subject, continuing to play the game and refusing to talk about work.

Fans call her a silly little bear, but actually Kang Seulgi is often incredibly clever!

They stopped talking about work and focused on drinking games. Park Soo-young suggested playing the same game they played at Ye Fan's house last time, which was just right for six people.

As single people at the table, Seulgi and her sister Joo-hee team up to target the two couples. Bae Joo-hyun, sitting next to Kang Seulgi, naturally becomes their target.

Seeing that Bae Joo-hyun had already drunk a bottle, and that she would get drunk again if she drank any more, Ye Fan quickly reminded her to stop drinking.

Bae Joo-hyun listened, but only halfway through. She slowed down, but didn't stop.

"I feel great today, I can drink two bottles without any problem."

"Don't try to tough it out," Ye Fan said. Last time he drank at Ye Fan's house, he tried to tough it out and ended up getting drunk.

"No!" Bae Joo-hyun shook her head and finished the rest of her drink.

Ye Fan scratched his head. Since that's the case, he'd let her drink a little more, and then stop her when she was almost at two bottles.

Noticing Kang Seulgi's gaze, Ye Fan turned to look at her and saw the confusion in her eyes.

Ye Fan shrugged slightly, indicating that he hadn't done anything.
