Peninsula: My cheat code is unscientific

Chapter 6 Ten Years Ago?
"Evidence? I've changed like this, what evidence do you need?" Jiang Che was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up.

"By the way! Yoona-ssi, what time is it now? What year? What month and day?"

He's been holding this question in for a long time! He never realized how important a phone was before, but now he knows how inconvenient it is to live without one!
Yoona, upon hearing this, realized she was going crazy. What evidence could she possibly have? After a few seconds of silence, she recited a date:
"March 9, 2015. What?"

'March 2015... I... went back to the past? Those memories about the future,'

Bitcoin… Tesla… crude oil… those gold mines that could turn his life around—it seems he may have missed out on the experience of being a rich second-generation heir, but he could become a self-made millionaire!
"Let's set a small goal first!" Jiang Che murmured repeatedly, his brain racing, but then he immediately thought of...
'In 2015...Girls' Generation...the "930 Incident" already happened! And...Sulli...Goo Hara...'

Thinking of this, the excited expression on his face froze instantly. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something about the future, those tragedies... but the words stuck in his throat and he swallowed them back.

The Butterfly Effect.

If he were to remind the other person now of what the future holds for the people he knows, whether Yoona would believe him is one thing, but if he accidentally let the butterfly's wings blow away my little goal, I'm afraid I'd be devastated.

Since there's still plenty of time, let's wait until we've achieved our small goals before talking about these things.

Yoona didn't miss the changing expressions on Jiang Che's face:
"What's wrong? Is there a problem with the timing?"

“…It’s nothing,” Jiang Che lowered his eyes, suppressing those heavy thoughts. Now was not the time for lamentation.
He has nothing now except for the face of a top female idol, but the real idol is still around, and he can't inherit her family business.

If you went to work at a convenience store with this face, the boss's first reaction would probably be that they were filming a hidden camera.

Their second reaction would probably be to ask for an autograph and a photo. Even if I said I wasn't Lim Yoona, they probably wouldn't believe me. Sigh…

His gaze involuntarily drifted to the phone Yoona had casually placed on the bar, then swept over the wealthy woman's apartment. Inheriting the family business? A bold idea popped into his head.

He suddenly raised his head and looked at Yoona, his doe eyes radiating... a longing for money and a comfortable retirement.

"Yoona-ssi..." Jiang Che licked his lips, leaned forward slightly, and said in a slightly cheeky tone:
"Look... how about we discuss something?"

Yoona raised an eyebrow and said, "For the first time, I feel like I deserve a beating." She gave him a look that indicated he had something to do and should leave quickly.

Jiang Che rubbed his hands together, pretending that Yoona's current attitude didn't exist, and forced a smile a hundred times brighter than the one he had on stage back then:

"Can you lend me some start-up capital?"

"Huh?" Yoona could hardly believe her ears. Her doe eyes widened instantly, filled with shock and absurdity, as if she were witnessing "what nonsense are you spouting?"

She even subconsciously picked at her ears, wondering if she was hallucinating from anger:
"Startup capital? You? You want to borrow it from me?"

She pointed at Jiang Che and said, "Damn it... Are you possessed by some evil spirit? Or do you think I look like a charity? Or some stupid, rich fool?"

"No, no! Let me explain!" Jiang Che quickly waved his hands when he saw her expression that said she wanted to hit him.
Speaking rapidly, "Yoona-ssi, calm down! Calm down! You see, this is the situation right now, isn't it?"

He counted on his fingers, trying his best to present the facts and reason with her, attempting to evoke even a little bit of a mother's love for her child:

"First of all, I, Jiang Che, am an unlucky guy from a parallel world who inexplicably became you."

"Secondly, I have no money, no identity, not even a cell phone; I'm a nobody." "Furthermore, with your face," he pointed to his own face, his expression utterly sincere.

"What could I do outside? Work at a convenience store? That would make headlines the next day—'Breaking News! Girls' Generation's Yoona Suspected of Being Under Too Much Pressure, Working at a Convenience Store to Experience Life?'"

Or, "Shocking! Girls' Generation's Yoona actually has a long-lost younger sister! A family feud? Is it a distortion of human nature or a decline in morality?"

The problem is that neither of us admits to knowing each other. Later, I might get arrested and filmed because of my face, and then you'd probably become famous.
This face is a walking trouble-making machine, Yoona-ssi!

With each headline he mentioned, Yoona's lips twitched. 'Damn! These headlines are so vivid!'

Seeing that things seemed to be going well, Jiang Che continued his persuasive scheme:
Look at our current situation.

You certainly wouldn't let me go out and do things with your face on my back, and you certainly wouldn't raise a lazy bum who stays at home doing nothing, right?

As for me, I genuinely want to find a deserted island, facing the sea, where spring is warm and flowers bloom, and I can retire peacefully.
I absolutely will not appear before you and disturb your dazzling career! But! I don't have a single penny right now, and I don't even know where this outfit came from!

"So! Yoona-ssi, you just need to lend me some start-up capital? Just a little bit!"

"Startup capital?" Yoona finally spoke:
"What do you want to do?"

"Investing? It's a sure thing! Absolutely a guaranteed profit!" Jiang Che patted his flat chest, making a confident statement:
"Just think of it as an angel investment!!"

I promise, I'll pay you back double! No, triple! Once I've made enough money, I'll pack my bags and leave immediately, find an island where nobody knows me, and disappear completely!
I'm going to lie down and relax! I'll retire comfortably! I swear I won't cause you any trouble in your old age!

When Jiang Che mentioned the phrase "lying down and retiring," the longing in his voice was almost palpable.

His gaze drifted out the window, as if he could already see his retirement life, and a dreamy smile crept onto his lips.

"Rejected!" Yoona interrupted him decisively. "Don't even think about investing a single penny!"

She looked at Jiang Che's face, which screamed "unreliable." She wasn't stupid. She had poured her heart out and given him money on the very first day they met. She didn't want to be scammed out of everything!

But it's strange, how can my own face make such a fawning expression!

Jiang Che's smile vanished instantly. 'It's over. The Small Goal Plan has died before it even began. The late emperor's great undertaking was cut short by his untimely death.'
No, it should be 'dying before achieving his goal.' He visibly wilted, radiating an aura of utter despair.

Yoona watched his own face contort with anger as he made that expression, and a vein throbbed in her temple. But as he said, kicking him out? The risk was too great.

If anything happens, it will drag the entire Girls' Generation down with it.

Kill him? She looked down at her hands, then at Jiang Che's face, which was exactly like hers... A chill ran down her spine. Kill herself?

I'm afraid I'll have nightmares every day from now on... Oh well, this is a society governed by law.

A deep sense of powerlessness washed over her; she felt as if she had not brought back a troublesome person, but rather a plague god!
