Peninsula: Superpowered Daily Life

Chapter 55, shall we give it a try?

Tokyo, Japan.

After finishing their work, Twice returned to their dorm in Tokyo and had dinner together when one of their female managers told them some news they had just received.

The company has appointed a new Chief Strategy Officer who will be responsible for the management of all the company's artists, including Twice.

"Unnie, how come the company suddenly has this new position? Will we all be under his management from now on?" Park Jihyo asked.

"Yes, I heard he was appointed by the company's new shareholders."

"Who is it?"

"He's a very young man, not much older than you, I think his name is... Zhou Wenzhe (in Korean).

Upon hearing the name, Lim Nayeon, who was eating heartily, widened her eyes, looked up at her manager in disbelief, quickly swallowed the food in her mouth, and then anxiously asked, "Unnie, what did you say her name is?"

"Zhou Wenzhe, that should be the name. What's wrong?"

"You just said he's not much older than us?"

"Yes, I heard he was born in 94, so he's only a year older than you."

Ahem~

After confirming that she hadn't misheard, Lim Nayeon couldn't help but cough a few times. Then she took her phone and went back to her room to call Zhou Wenzhe.

The phone rang several times before it was answered.

"Oppa..." Before Lim Nayeon could even ask the question that was on her mind, she was interrupted by Zhou Wenzhe on the other end of the phone.

"Nayeon, I have something to take care of here. I'll call you back later."

"What's wrong?"

"I'll get back to you about an hour from the work-related matter."

"All right."

After hanging up the phone, Lim Nayeon thought for a moment, then edited a text message and sent it over.

Is it really him?

They still have the same name.

Having received no reply from Zhou Wenzhe, she returned to the living room, still preoccupied.

Everyone noticed Nayeon's strange behavior, and when she came out, they couldn't help but ask, "Nayeon unnie, what's wrong? What happened?"

"It's nothing, let's eat."

Lim Nayeon returned to her seat and continued eating.

Seeing her like this, the others stopped asking questions. However, judging from her actions and words, it must be related to the newly appointed strategist.

Hmm...

As the one who knows the most of Lim Nayeon's secrets, Yoo Jeongyeon has already realized it. The age and name match up. Could this strategist be Lim Nayeon's childhood friend and boyfriend?

She hadn't thought about it this way before because it was so unimaginable, and even now that she's realized it, she still finds it hard to believe.

Why didn't Lim Na-yeon know about this?

. . .

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Wenzhe saw the text message from Lin Nayeon and smiled. So that's why she contacted him.

It seems I won't be able to surprise her when she gets back.

Time stands still. Time's up.

"Why aren't you answering the phone?" Kim Jisoo asked.

"The call has already been disconnected; it might have been a wrong number."

"oh."

Kim Ji-soo did not doubt Zhou Wenzhe's words, because the phone had indeed stopped ringing at this point.

"By the way, Jisoo, do you contact Nayeon often?"

"Not often. We only occasionally run into each other at work. Actually, we haven't seen each other since graduating from elementary school, and we've lost contact."

"Really? Why?" Zhou Wenzhe asked, somewhat curious.

"We went to different schools, and we even had a fight after you left."

"Huh? Why are you arguing?"

"It's all because of you!"

"Because of me?!" Zhou Wenzhe pointed to himself, wondering what this had to do with him.

"Yes, for a while after you left without saying goodbye, Nayeon was depressed every day. One day, I accidentally broke the water glass you gave her, so we had a fight."

"Is that so?"

"Well, I later gave her an exact replica, but she still wouldn't forgive me. It wasn't until an event after my debut that we ran into each other backstage and our relationship improved. Maybe it's because we've grown up."

"I completely forgot I gave her a water bottle."

"Didn't you contact her after you returned to the United States?"

"No, I didn't have her phone number at that time, and I was busy with my treatment, so I didn't contact her."

"So, what about now? How about I give you her phone number?"

"it is good."

"Then give me your phone, and I'll enter it for you."

"You tell me, I'll do it myself." How could Zhou Wenzhe give the phone to Kim Jisoo? That would give him away.

"it is good."

Kim Jisoo picked up her phone, found Lim Nayeon's number, and read out the string of numbers.

Zhou Wenzhe pretended to save it.

Sigh, it must be exhausting to lie like this.

I never felt this tired when I did those difficult tasks before.

After giving out the number, Kim Jisoo suddenly regretted it.

She knew very well that Zhou Wenzhe and Lin Nalian had a very good relationship when they were young. If they were to reconnect now, it was hard to guarantee that their old feelings wouldn't rekindle.

What should she do?

She really wanted to be the matchmaker for the two of them.

Since that's the case, let's strike first.

However, I find it hard to say it first.

She decided to hint at it, thinking that Zhou Wenzhe must also be interested in her. Otherwise, why would he be interested in YG Entertainment out of so many entertainment companies?

Moreover, both families approve of their relationship.

After thinking for a moment, she asked, "Wenzhe, have you had any girlfriends over the years?"

"Uh...no."

"Really?"

"You know I've been traveling the world all these years, how could I have time to date?"

"Not even in college? Isn't America pretty open-minded? Didn't any girls like you?"

Zhou Wenzhe's good looks transcend Asia and Europe; Kim Jisoo believes that with his looks, he must be very popular at school.

"Hehe, yes, there is, but I had a lot of studies when I was in college, and I also had a lot of other things to do, so I didn't have time to think about these things."

At that time, the system put a lot of pressure on Zhou Wenzhe. In addition to requiring him to obtain a master's degree within four years of his undergraduate studies, he also had to complete all sorts of miscellaneous tasks. At that time, he wished he could make two days out of one, so he had no time or energy for romance.

"What else do you usually do? University is all about studying." Kim Jisoo still longed for university life, but unfortunately she didn't even graduate from high school and didn't even have the chance to take the university entrance exam.

Moreover, her studies weren't very good, so she could only hope that she would have the opportunity to act in a play from her university days and experience what it's like to be in college.

"There are many things that I can't explain to you in a short time."

"Okay, so do you want to give it a try now?"

"Try what?"

"To date."

"Huh? With whom?"

"Me!" Kim Jisoo smiled and pointed to herself, looking at Zhou Wenzhe with anticipation.
