Peninsula: My pet is my idol

Chapter 88 Powerful Offensive Beast Martial Soul: Soft Bone Charming Rabbit

Inside the IVE dormitory.

Ahn Yu-jin looked at the message on her phone that Sakura and Yoo Jimin had both left the group chat, and then found Jang Won-young: "Won-young, Sakura unnie and the other two have left the group chat."

Zhang Yuanying paused for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, I guessed it."

"What exactly did you and unnie argue about?" As a former member of IZ*ONE, Ahn Yujin was caught in the middle and felt very uncomfortable.

Zhang Yuanying shook her head. "The reason isn't important. She just happens to be preparing for her debut during this period, so she's very sensitive and will explode at the slightest thing."

As of this year, 22, Sakura has been in the industry for ten years.

Someone who has been active in the entertainment industry in both countries for a total of ten years is now still a trainee preparing for his third debut.

The future is uncertain, and the road ahead is unknown.

The members of IZ*ONE have all gone their separate ways and debuted individually, while she is still a trainee.

This is a huge blow and immense pressure for an ambitious person.

It's like an ordinary person who has been working for ten years, and this is the third time she's been competing for a job with a recent graduate!

Who can be without pressure?

Sakura's ability to avoid collapsing and giving up after experiencing such a thing shows that she is mentally mature and has a strong core!

It's just that I get a little angry and speak loudly.

This actually shows that she is a gentle person.

Even an honest person will fight back when pushed to the limit; even a rabbit will bite when cornered.

Sakura only shouted a few words impatiently and broke down emotionally for a while. She is also a human being, a living, breathing human being. Fans' assumption that she can control all her emotions at all times is an overly idealistic assumption.

Every human being has moments of emotional breakdown, times when they are not themselves.

In fact, this was the first time Zhang Yuanying had seen Xiaoying speak so loudly in the years since she had known her.

Ahn Yoo-jin asked in surprise, "You know she's under a lot of pressure—why don't you talk to her privately and ease the tension?"

Zhang Yuanying retorted, "Is it necessary?"

"That's Sakura unnie, our IZoNE————"

"It's IVE now, Yujin unnie," Jang Won-young said seriously. "The past is the past. Sakura unnie and I are not teammates now, and we never will be. After her group debuts, she won't be amicable friends with us at IVE, but rather rivals. Why should I try to improve relations with future rivals?"

"Yuan Ying! You—"

"Unnie, you don't understand," Zhang Yuanying sighed. "This is actually an unspoken understanding between Sakura unnie and me."

"What kind of tacit understanding?"

"We've been rivals since PD48," Jang Won-young said with a soft laugh. "We admire each other, but that doesn't stop us from being enemies. We couldn't be close friends even when we were in the same group, and we certainly won't be in the future."

Ahn Yu-jin: "We were teammates in the same group before, is this how things are going to continue?"

Jang Won-young: "It's precisely because we were teammates before that I respect her as an opponent even more. Unnie, don't forget, Sakura..."

"Sakura unnie is going to a big company like Hybe, so her debut will definitely be a huge success. Instead of worrying about Sakura unnie, you should worry more about ourselves."

Zhang Yuanying's words hit the nail on the head, leaving Ahn Yoojin silent.

The former statement is true.

Hybe, the company Sakura belongs to, and SM, the company Yoo Jimin belongs to, are both super-sized companies that have almost everything.

In contrast, Starship Entertainment, the company IVE belongs to, has almost no truly successful idol groups; their only notable successor is Sister.

This group briefly held a place among the top girl groups.

Sighing, Ahn Yu-jin stopped dwelling on Sakura's question and changed the subject, asking, "I heard from my manager these past few days that we're planning to hire Tang Xin oppa to assist with our schedules for traditional Chinese medicine internal medicine diagnosis and treatment. Did you bring this up yourself?"

"Yeah, I suggested it." Zhang Yuanying pouted and said, "The other day, Liu Zhimin said she needed to call for backup, so I went in Zhiyuan's place. While we were eating, Oppa gave me a checkup—it's terrifying!"

Did he insult you?

"It's not that serious, he just got a scolding," Zhang Yuanying said with a smile. "Doctors unconsciously become serious when they're around patients, and their voices become stiff. I don't think missing your period is a big deal, but he reacted strongly. It's rare to see him so serious and earnest. Unnie, have you missed your period for a while too?"

"Me? I'm fine, pretty normal, just haven't been here much." Ahn Yoo-jin mentioned, "Lee Seo-jae, he stopped coming back during the pre-debut training camp, just like when you debuted a few years ago, the situation was very similar."

"It's definitely time for Tang Xin oppa to examine Xianrui. She's still so young; she can't be like me."

"Out of the six of us, only you and Li Rui have stopped menstruating," An Youzhen said softly. "I guess the company will only arrange treatment for you and Li Rui to save costs."

"Have you forgotten? Rei-chan has chest tightness and shortness of breath, right? And in the fall, Onii has acid reflux. Everyone has some kind of health problem."

"Hmm—" Ahn Yoo-jin suddenly asked, "Oh, right, Ji-won just told me that Tang Xin oppa invited the three of us to his house these next few days so he can cook for us. He also said he's prepared a gift to repay the life-saving grace he received before."

Don't go.

"Why?" Ahn Yoo-jin asked in surprise.

"What's the point of just hanging out at his house all the time? We should invite him along when we go to Japan for some activities, and have him show us around. That would be much more fun."

（82A8：B15：C3：D65（雪允）：E16：F4）

Tang Xin herself is already aware that the IVE team plans to hire her.

Tired and poorly paid, Starship is extremely stingy.

He said Zhang Yuanying was his girlfriend, and that Zhang Yuanying couldn't be counted as money.

Ahn Yoo-jin and Kim Ji-won also rushed to rescue him in the middle of the night before, so that can't be counted as money.

-

IVE has three people left; let him provide a free diagnosis, and then offer a significant discount on subsequent treatment orders.

After some calculations, Tang Xin thought, "Good heavens, the Death Star Ship, you've managed to get your hands on this freeloader for free?"

It's purely a thankless task.

However, Tang Xin eventually agreed because it would give her more opportunities to see Jin Zhiyuan.

It can be considered paying the price for a beautiful love, and it can be considered that IVE's good looks have paid for it.

Just as Kim Tae-yeon's treatment order was nearing completion, Tang Xin had some free time.

On this day during the Spring Festival, Tang Xin went to Kim Tae-yeon's house for her final treatment.

And after he went out.

The little rabbit, a lop-eared breed, which he named "Powerful Attack-Type Beast Soul: Soft Bone Charming Rabbit," was trembling as it introduced itself to the two snakes.

The tiny rabbit, Xue, was surrounded by a small snake, Ying, which looked like a Titanic python to it.

Beside it was a huge white snake, as big as a water python, flicking its tongue.

Sakura the Snake: "So, you mean you're a member of the new girl group that JYP Entertainment is launching in February?"

Little Rabbit Snow: "Mmm! Senior! My name is Yoona, the same first name as senior Im Yoona, but a different last name!"

"Zhimin, I can't quite remember, do you recall me?"

"Unnie, that's not important," Little Snake said. "Xueyun, the more important thing is that you stop pooping chocolate beans under Tang Xin's bed. Go to the toilet yourself."

Little Rabbit Snow asked incredulously, "Huh? Did I?"

"Yes, it really stinks—" Little Snake Cherry complained.

"Alright, you can just stick with the two of us. Let's form a super alliance of SM, JYP, and Hybe, hahaha~"

Little Snake began to imagine how she would deal with a conflict that might arise between her and the cats, dogs, and pigs on the other side.

"When we fight against the three on the other side, we will use the principle of Tian Ji's horse racing strategy."

"I'll handle Kim Ji-won, Sakura unnie, you handle Jang Won-young, and you, Seol-yoon, you defend against Ahn Yoo-jin!"

Little Rabbit Xue's rabbit mouth was so surprised it looked like a Type-C interface.

I'm so small, how can you expect me to defend against that dog on the other side whose shoulder height is three times my own?

The dorm room of NMIXX, a group under JYP Entertainment.

-

Xueyun, a trainee who was still a few days away from her official debut, woke up with her head covered.

"Ah—what a dream—it was such a long dream, it really felt like it lasted for ten or twenty hours—and I even dreamt about two seniors."

Pei Zhenlu, who was on the lower bunk, climbed up to the upper bunk and pressed, "Huh? What did you say? What hour? What senior?"

Bae Jinsol and Seol Yoon met two years ago when they were trainees at JYP Entertainment.

Afterwards, the two transferred to Seoul Hanlim Arts High School together and became classmates and deskmates.

Now they're about to debut together as teammates.

Xueyun chuckled and then rubbed her forehead with a wry smile: "Why did you climb up here again—"

Pei Zhenlu is like a human golden retriever, always doing things that leave Xueyun both amused and exasperated.

Even though they've known each other for so long, the latter still finds the former quite "magical".

He slipped into Xueyun's bed and asked, "What senior? Hmm?"

"I had a dream where I turned into a rabbit, and in the dream, there were also seniors Liu Zhimin and Sakura who turned into snakes," Xueyun said softly. "They also made up a lot of things that I couldn't understand, and I didn't remember any of them."

"As long as it's not a scary brother dream, I thought you were having a brother dream." Pei Zhenlu lay down on the pillow on the upper bunk.

"Hey, your bed is right downstairs, why do you keep climbing up to sleep in my bed!"

"What do you mean 'yours' and 'mine'? I'm sleeping, so it's mine." Pei Zhenlu kicked her under the covers. "Go wash up first, and wake me up in half an hour."

Xueyun:

Xueyun initially thought it was just a rather bizarre dream, until the next day she received some news from her agent.

"Senior Liu Zhimin took the initiative to say she wanted to get to know me?" Xueyun pressed her neck, unable to believe it.

I haven't even debuted yet; I'm still nobody.

Why did senior Yoo Ji-min notice me? And why did she take the initiative to contact me?

Agent: "The management team at aespa only said that Yoo Jimin watched our NMIXX debut teaser, thought you were very pretty and liked you a lot, so she took the initiative to contact you."

I'm just letting you know that when a senior takes the initiative to ask a junior for their contact information, the junior can't refuse.

When you chat with Liu Zhimin, be careful not to reveal any company matters, observe proper etiquette, and remain vigilant.

""

Xueyun was filled with doubt and surprise, but nodded and said, "I understand."
