Peninsula: My Top-Tier Landlord

When expressing one's feelings, only those who are unsure of their chances will try to make additional preparations to increase their success rate.

Since the incident was sudden and she already knew Ye Fan's feelings, Bae Joo-hyun hadn't prepared anything. Seulgi had suggested buying Ye Fan a flower, but it seems she'll have to make up for it when they go shopping tomorrow.

However, Bae Joo-hyun's eyes were blank at the moment, and she didn't even know what was on the TV screen. She was currently lying in bed, nestled in Ye Fan's arms.

February is winter, and the temperature in London is only a few degrees Celsius, which is quite cold, but Bae Joo-hyun doesn't feel it anymore.

Ye Fan didn't think that much about it. He was just thinking that he was no longer single. Although their relationship had changed from a fake couple to a real couple, Ye Fan didn't feel any difference.

Out of the corner of his eye, Ye Fan noticed Bae Joo-hyun playing on her phone. He looked down and saw that she was sending messages in their group chat.

Bae Joo-hyun: "In this freezing weather, who doesn't have a boyfriend to hug?"

Son Seung-wan: "Unnie, what do you mean?"

Park Soo-young: "Anyway, I have it."

Kang Seulgi: "Saying something like that, unnie, have you and your brother-in-law confirmed your relationship? Did you do it ahead of schedule?"

Kim Ye-rin: "Could it be that it's already over?"

Ye Fan found it amusing and said, "Why are you abandoning me after using me?"

Bae Joo-hyun was startled and trembled in Ye Fan's arms. "Why, why were you peeking?!"

"You weren't hiding behind me, you could see it as soon as you looked down." Ye Fan shrugged; he hadn't meant to.

"They gave you plenty of advice before, and now you're turning around and talking back to them. You'll get scolded soon enough."

Single people get very resentful when they're attacked in a relationship, and sure enough, several more messages popped up in the group chat, all from Seulgi and the other two single people.

The group of girls were plotting behind the scenes, but after this older sister finished, she actually turned around and attacked the three of them, who were single!

"See?" Ye Fan raised his hand and pointed at her phone screen.

"But it's interesting." Bae Joo-hyun chuckled and continued typing replies to her sisters' messages.

After a brief verbal exchange, Kang Seulgi and the others began asking about the details. Bae Joohyun didn't hide anything, and after she finished speaking, Seulgi and the others offered their blessings.

Kang Seulgi posted a long string of "hahaha"s. She was the initiator, and now that the male and female leads are finally together, she, as the director, is the happiest person besides the main characters.

Who is the best matchmaker in K-pop?

Okay, then it must be me!

"Unnie, are you and your brother-in-law planning to keep your relationship secret, or are you going to go public?"

After the teasing ended, Kang Seulgi and the others asked Bae Joo-hyun about her plans.

The dating contract is over, so dating is fine. However, this woman is more passionate about the stage and doesn't want to pursue an acting career. Therefore, announcing her relationship will naturally have some impact, especially since she just renewed her contract.

However, going public with your relationship has its advantages, namely that you no longer have to worry about paparazzi and can go out like a normal couple, engaging in intimate interactions.

Just like Joy, after going public with their relationship, she casually goes out for walks with her boyfriend and the dog. Now, the paparazzi ignore them, and they can respond generously when asked about it on TV shows.

She had just discussed this issue with Ye Fan, who said that they should just keep their relationship secret and go public if it got discovered, letting things take their natural course.

Ye Fan was thinking that Bae Joo-hyun had just renewed her contract and would announce it at her birthday party next month to inform her fans. She also had news about her solo project, which seemed to depend on sales. If she announced her relationship at this time, it wouldn't be a good thing.

He doesn't seem to have any particular attachment to going public.

"My brother-in-law is right."

"But why does it feel like my brother-in-law is the dominant one at home? My sister is clearly a noona." Kim Ye-rin typed back, feeling that apart from her physical intimidation, it seemed like her brother-in-law had the final say in many things.

"No need to feel it, that's it." Kang Seulgi added. She was a regular at Ye Fan's place and knew how the two got along.

"So what?"

Bae Joo-hyun, on the other hand, felt great. It's a very happy thing to have someone care about you.

She turned her head to say something to Ye Fan, but Ye Fan had already closed his eyes to rest.

Bae Joo-hyun gently patted Ye Fan's shoulder and whispered, "Are you asleep?"

After waiting for two seconds without a response, I checked the time and it was already 10 pm London time. I was exhausted from the long flight, and I had to get up early to go out and have fun tomorrow, so I needed to rest.

After saying goodnight in the group chat, Bae Joo-hyun put down her phone, turned off the bedside lamp, and snuggled closer to Ye Fan.

The noise woke Ye Fan up a bit. He felt something soft snuggling into his arms. Ye Fan groggily opened his eyes halfway and, after seeing that it was Pei Zhuxuan, closed them again and gently stroked her back.

Did I wake you up?

"Yeah, but I'm still sleepy. I should rest; I have to get up early tomorrow."

"Um!"

"Goodnight, my little boyfriend!" Bae Joo-hyun's voice didn't sound sleepy at all; instead, it was full of joy. Her mind was wide awake and she couldn't fall asleep at all. She raised her head and stared at Ye Fan's sleeping face.

After confirming their relationship, the two didn't do anything special, just snuggled together, but didn't even kiss.

He's my boyfriend now, that's great! When I finish this European trip and return to Seoul for the Lunar New Year in Daegu, I won't be bringing a fake boyfriend, but a real one!

She moved up a little and kissed Ye Fan's lips.

Ye Fan slept until 8 a.m., but even though he had a good night's sleep, he still felt very tired and a little numb. Looking down, he saw Bae Joo-hyun with her head on his arm, one hand on her chest, and one leg wrapped around his thigh like an octopus.

No wonder I felt more and more tired the more I slept; it turns out it's because my girlfriend has a bad sleeping posture.

I glanced at the time; it was 8 o'clock. However, the light entering the room was not bright, so it seemed that the weather was not very good today, perhaps it was cloudy.

He reached out and removed Bae Joo-hyun's hands and feet from his body. Just as he was about to pull his hand away from under her head, Bae Joo-hyun groggily opened her eyes, and then...

"Oh my!"

The bed shook slightly. Before Ye Fan could even lift a finger, Bae Joo-hyun gasped and turned away. Ye Fan then withdrew his hand and began kneading and shaking the numb arm.

"Good morning, but I remember I went to sleep first last night. Why are you exclaiming like that now?" The tingling sensation made Ye Fan gasp.

How long have I been using this as a pillow? It goes numb as soon as I move even slightly.

Bae Joo-hyun realized what was happening and scratched her head sheepishly. It was just an unconscious reaction; she wasn't used to seeing someone next to her as soon as she woke up.

"Sorry, I'm not used to it yet." Bae Joo-hyun moved back. "What are you doing?"

My arm is numb.

Bae Joo-hyun felt a little embarrassed, since she had been using it as a pillow. She reached out to massage Ye Fan, saying, "I'm sorry."

Ye Fan laughed and joked, "I didn't expect my girlfriend to be such a terrible sleeper. Looks like I'm in for some trouble in the future..."

The first shy moment of the morning after confirming their relationship: Bae Joo-hyun opened her mouth and lightly bit his arm, saying with a mix of embarrassment and annoyance, "Regretting it?"

"No, it's just that I was thinking we might have to sleep in separate rooms when we get back."

Bae Joo-hyun didn't answer the question immediately. Instead, she bit Ye Fan's arm again and asked, "How are you? Are you feeling better?"

"Hmm, I feel better." Ye Fan nodded.

"That's good," Bae Joo-hyun's expression changed instantly. She quickly climbed onto Ye Fan and pinned him down, now truly like an octopus.

"No separate rooms allowed!"

They've only just gotten together, how can they possibly sleep in separate rooms?!

And what couple sleeps in separate rooms?!

"I'll crush you, crush you to death!" Bae Joo-hyun lay on Ye Fan's body, rubbing her head against his chest.

"From now on, I'll sleep with your head on my pillow every night, and then I'll give you a massage the next day!"

After Bae Joo-hyun finished speaking, she continued to press down, but soon her body stiffened and she stopped moving.

"You...you..."

Ye Fan shrugged helplessly. It was early in the morning, and the bed was still filled with Bae Joo-hyun's scent. She was still lying on top of him. It was normal for a young man to have a reaction.

Bae Joo-hyun quickly rolled off Ye Fan and rolled up the blanket to bury her head in the sand like an ostrich.

Ye Fan wasn't that impulsive, and he wasn't prepared at all; it wasn't appropriate to do it so early in the morning.

Ye Fan paused, turning to look at Bae Joo-hyun, who was peeking half her head out from under the covers.

With a quick glance, Ye Fan rolled back onto the bed, and amidst Pei Zhuxuan's gasp, he slipped under the covers, embraced her petite figure, and whispered a few words in her ear, making Pei Zhuxuan blush.

"How is it? Is it okay?"

Bae Joo-hyun pursed her lips, thought it over carefully, and nodded slightly under Ye Fan's expectant gaze.

After the two played around for a while, Ye Fan peeked out from under the covers, one hand behind his head and the other gently stroking the raised blanket, as if he was about to go back to sleep. He stared at the ceiling, contemplating the meaning of life.

In the bathroom, Ye Fan and Bae Joo-hyun stood side by side in front of the sink, brushing their teeth together. In the mirror, Ye Fan was all smiles, while Bae Joo-hyun glared at him, her face flushed and her earlobes as red as cherries.

"You're still laughing?"

Bae Joo-hyun stopped brushing her teeth and then elbowed him. This bad guy, he just deliberately pressed down on her, he's so mean!

Despite taking the elbow, Ye Fan accepted it willingly.

"I couldn't help myself, my daughter is so wonderful." Ye Fan pinched Bae Joo-hyun's earlobe.

He had just entered the realm of a sage, gaining a new understanding of life.

"Hmph!" Bae Joo-hyun snorted softly.

After the brief incident, by the time the two had finished getting dressed, it was already 9:30. Ye Fan opened the curtains, and as he had expected, the weather was overcast and looked like it was about to rain at any moment.

"Luckily, I had an umbrella with me."

"It's getting late, why don't we go out for breakfast and then start filming today's schedule?" Ye Fan said.

The original plan was to have breakfast at the hotel restaurant this morning, which was also part of the filming, but something came up and I was delayed.

"Okay, I'll do as you say." Bae Joo-hyun nodded.

Ye Fan turned on the equipment and began his assistant's work. After filming the good morning greetings, he left the room. Ye Fan also carried Bae Joo-hyun's bag, wallet, and phone, which were all placed in Ye Fan's pockets, along with some cosmetics and an umbrella.

Not long after leaving the hotel, a light rain began to fall. Ye Fan opened his umbrella and strolled with Bae Joo-hyun through the streets of London. The rainy London scene had a unique charm.

The two arrived at the restaurant according to the guide. Ye Fan also turned on the equipment again to film. With the camera filming, Bae Joo-hyun also got into work mode, and it really looked like an artist and her assistant filming.

After breakfast, we continued to visit some attractions according to the itinerary.

The weather in London is unpredictable; the rain stopped after a short while. Passing by a flower vendor, Bae Joo-hyun stopped and asked the owner for a rose.

After paying and receiving the packaged roses, Bae Joo-hyun turned around and handed them to Ye Fan. Ye Fan, puzzled, paused the filming.

"This is?"

Bae Joo-hyun smiled, her eyes crinkling, and pushed the rose forward two inches. Her smile was brighter than I'd seen all day. "It's for you."

"Give...give me?" Ye Fan was somewhat taken aback, his gaze shifting to the brightly blooming rose.

Her slightly parted mouth closed, her lips pursed, revealing a gentle smile. Her heart was filled with even more tenderness. Ye Fan reached out and accepted the flowers, thanking them, "This is the first time I've ever received flowers. Thank you."

Hehe, just as I expected, Seulgi was right again.

Bae Joo-hyun put her hands behind her back, swayed back and forth a little, and laughed, "You're welcome. I was planning to buy you flowers when I confessed to you, but things didn't go as planned, and it was too sudden, so I didn't prepare any. I'll make up for it today~"

She originally wanted to buy more, but she had other plans later and it would be troublesome to carry the flowers, so she could only give her one for now and give the rest when she got back.

"Alright, let's move on!"

"good!"

Ye Fan doesn't like going out on rainy days; they're wet and the weather is gloomy. But today, he doesn't find going out on a rainy day so unpleasant.

"None of the girls who used to pursue you have ever given you flowers?" Bae Joo-hyun tilted her head and looked at Ye Fan with a smile.

"No, you're the first person to ever give me flowers, from childhood to adulthood." Ye Fan nodded. Even during their previous relationship, he was the one who always gave her flowers.

Then those who were trying to flirt with me used the "play hard to get" approach, and after only knowing me for a short time, they started expecting me to take the initiative.

"That stirred you again, so does that mean I'm even more important to you now?" Bae Joo-hyun smiled sweetly, pointing to Ye Fan's chest.

"Yes, it's gotten deeper. I will never forget you for the rest of my life."

A question mark popped up above Bae Joo-hyun's head. Something about that sounded really weird.
