Peninsula: My cheat code is unscientific

Chapter 9 Oh dear! Put it on quickly!
"Well..." Jiang Che stroked his chin with feigned profundity:
"We're only a tiny bit ahead of you, and the rules of the two worlds might be different, so we need to analyze this carefully."

However…” he changed the subject, revealing his true intentions:

"Yoona-ssi, you see, this is the importance of start-up capital!"

With the capital, I can validate my analysis in this world, find our own Bitcoin, and then…” He spread his hands, making a gesture that said, “You know what I mean.”

Seeing this, Yoona was so angry she laughed. It seemed that Jiang Che had come full circle back to the topic of start-up capital.

Instead of addressing the issue of funding, they pressed for further questions:
"What about your daily life? And does your world also have a teenage girl's era? Is it the same as ours?"

Jiang Che felt a headache coming on when he heard this. 'This young lady has way too many problems! Can't a person just eat in peace?!' Thinking back to his past life, he only ever lied to young girls; he'd told more lies in a single day than he'd told in over 20 years!

But I had to finish the lie I started making up, even if I was crying:

"Daily life? That's a nightmare! They have a teenage girl's era in that world too, but I'm Chinese, so I haven't paid much attention to it."

Looking into his sincere eyes, Yoona nodded thoughtfully and finally didn't ask any more questions.

Jiang Che secretly rejoiced that he had managed to fool them again.

Jiang Che rummaged through his rice bowl, feeling that this meal had been quite a struggle for him. Lin Yoona's curiosity was just too boundless!
He stole another glance at Yoona, who had finally quieted down and was eating her meal in silence. A little voice inside him wiped a bead of sweat from his brow. 'This young lady, this little devil, she's finally quieted down! If she kept asking, I felt like I could become a screenwriter!'

After finally finishing her meal, Jiang Che quickly cleared away the dishes with remarkable efficiency, striving to cement the image of a well-behaved and sensible person onto her persona.

Yoona leaned against the kitchen door frame with her arms crossed, watching her other self busy in the kitchen. The feeling was incredibly eerie.

"Once you're done tidying up, that guest room over there is yours." Yoona raised her chin and pointed to a door at the end of the corridor:

"The sheets and duvet covers are all new. Remember the rules."

She yawned; after a long day, all she wanted to do was sleep.

"Understood, goodnight Yoon-ah, sweet dreams." Jiang Che nodded and bowed so much that he would definitely be a steward in ancient times. He watched Yoon-ah return to the master bedroom, and the door closed with a soft "click".

The world is finally quiet! Jiang Che threw himself onto the bed in the small guest room, the soft touch making him feel so comfortable that he wanted to groan.

However, as soon as his body relaxed, a strong sense of unease welled up inside him—sticky and sweaty, and he rolled around on the bed a couple more times in frustration.

"I can't take it anymore!" Jiang Che suddenly sat up, scratching his hair.
'I feel so awful! I need to take a shower!' After a day of running for my life, negotiating, cooking, and lying... my body really needs a shower.

His ears perked up like antennas, but there was no sound from the master bedroom. Confirmed safe! Jiang Che sneaked into the bathroom like a thief, looking at his stunningly beautiful face in the mirror—skin smooth and radiant, features exquisitely crafted like those of a goddess.

His gaze couldn't help but drift downwards, and he couldn't help but click his tongue twice at her proportions: "Sigh, what a waste of talent, Lin Yoona, cough, stop, stop!" He quickly shook off the dangerous thought and turned on the shower.

The moment the water rushed down, Jiang Che almost groaned out in pleasure.

After a shower, feeling refreshed, the first habitual action comes to mind—wrap yourself in a towel? What's that? Forget about it! In… oops, in my own home, coming out naked after a shower to drink ice water is basic practice, okay?

And so, Jiang Che, completely unsuspecting and openly brazen, strolled into the living room, still damp from the sweat. He opened the refrigerator, grabbed a bottle of ice water, and chug down most of it!
"Ah—that feels great!" He let out a satisfied sigh and began to plan his future to himself. Well, his plan for the future was basically what to do tomorrow. "Tomorrow, should I research Bitcoin in this world? Or think about how to persuade Mrs. Lin to invest some seed money? But judging from Mrs. Lin's attitude today, tsk, she's going to be difficult..."

Just as he was frowning in distress, the door to the master bedroom opened with a "click".

Upon hearing this voice, Jiang Che froze, completely stunned, unable to move. "You can't see me, you can't see me, you can't see me!"

At the master bedroom door, Lim Yoona's eyes were still closed, clearly awakened by the noise from the living room. She rubbed her sore eyes with one hand and immediately turned on the light with the other, muttering to herself:

"What's that sound...?"

Time seemed to freeze at this moment.

Yoona froze instantly. She blinked, incredulous, then blinked again, convinced she was still dreaming.

Under the bright lights of the living room, a naked woman, her skin still damp with moisture, and her figure as thin as a telephone pole, resembling "Lim Yoona," stood there eerily like a sculptor, holding a water bottle.

"Aaaaaaahh ...

Im Yoona let out a scream loud enough to lift the roof off!
Upon hearing this voice, Jiang Che's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally died. Although he had been mentally prepared, he was still terrified!

Turning around, he saw Yoona standing at the bedroom door, one hand covering her mouth, the other pointing at him, her eyes wide like saucers, her expression as if she had seen a ghost—a naked ghost at that!
"You...you...Jiang Che! What have you done?!"

Yoona's voice cracked, filled with disbelief, anger, and... immense shame! That was her body!!
Although I already knew my body had been seen, the sight of me running around naked still shocked me!

Jiang Che's mind went blank. Good heavens! Was he about to start making things up again?! The next second, he suddenly remembered the girl he'd fabricated before. 'Damn, I was a genius all along!'

Instantly, I felt calm and my breath stopped pounding. What's wrong with us girls taking a shower?! The little voice inside me even put her hands on her hips.

"Calm down! Yoona-ssi! Calm down!" Jiang Che said as he tried to find something to cover himself, but looking around, it seemed like only the refrigerator was available. He could only use the water bottle to cover his lower body, and simply ignored his upper body.
"Misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding! I... I just came out for a drink of water after taking a shower! It was so hot!"

"You need to be naked to drink water?! Who's a nice person who walks around naked after taking a shower?!" Yoona's voice rose eight octaves, her face turning red with anger.
"I...I forgot! Really!" Jiang Che quickly unleashed his ultimate weapon:
"Besides! Yoona-ssi! Have you forgotten? I'm a girl! We're both girls! What's there to be afraid of? Right?"

He forced a smile that conveyed sisterly affection, attempting to persuade her with logic:

"Look, what thoughts could I possibly have when I look at myself? Right? Besides, what you're saying..."

He instinctively wanted to complain, "It's not much to see," but he swallowed the words back and instead said:
"...You have such a great figure, what's wrong with me admiring it? It proves I have normal taste!"

"Great figure?...I...admire?!" Yoona felt like she was about to faint from anger, her temples throbbing.

Looking at the face in front of her that looked exactly like her, she said the most shameless thing with an innocent expression, "Taeyeon unnie, I'm sorry, I'll never make you angry again."
"As expected, the boomerang always comes back to haunt you," he immediately said.

"Jiang Che! Get inside and get dressed! Now! Immediately!! Or I'll throw you out the window right now!!!"

　Family, let's go! Starting today and continuing until next Monday, for four consecutive days, three updates a day – noon, afternoon, and evening!!
