220: Chapter 207 As long as you don't bring it into reality, the silly Minjun with Kim Minjun's face is the cutest!

The commotion at Nambu Market eventually exceeded everyone's expectations.

At first, it was just the curious gazes and whispers of passersby, but as the news spread by word of mouth through the market, more and more people began to gather where Jiang Zhiyu and Lee Tima were located.

Some were genuinely attracted by the fragrance, some wanted to see the legendary "glowing handsome man," and others were just joining in the fun.

The already narrow market aisles gradually became unbearably congested.

"Make way! Please make way!" Kim Jiyong tried to clear a path in front, but it had little effect.

"Who is that person? Is he a celebrity?"

"It smells so good... What perfume is that?"

"Can we take a photo together?"

"The little sister is also so cute! Is your brother an artist?"

Questions came one after another, and more and more mobile phone cameras appeared.

There were even a few people who looked like influencers, already starting to livestream to their cameras: "Guys! I've discovered an unparalleled handsome man at Jeonju Nambu Market! He's actually glowing! And he smells amazing!"

The situation was gradually getting out of control.

Kim Taeyeon's expression was becoming increasingly grim.

She stayed close to Jiang Zhiyu, almost shielding him with her body, her eyes scanning the surrounding crowd sharply, looking just like a lioness protecting her cubs.

Jiang Zhiyu was quite calm; he kept his mask on, revealing only his eyes, and seemed unbothered by the surrounding commotion.

But when he saw Kim Taeyeon's tense appearance, a flash of apology crossed his eyes.

"Sorry, Noona," he said in a low voice, "It seems I've caused trouble for everyone."

"It's not your fault," Kim Taeyeon said immediately, her voice somewhat tight.

But she knew in her heart that this couldn't go on.

If they stayed any longer, it would likely cause chaos.

Sure enough, the market management noticed the anomaly, and a few staff members in uniforms squeezed over.

"What's going on? Do not block the aisle!"

"Disperse! Everyone, disperse!"

Under their guidance, the crowd finally began to slowly disperse.

But those curious gazes and whispers still followed them like shadows.

"Let's... go back first," Kim Jiyong suggested, sweat already forming on his forehead.

No one objected.

The group almost "fled" from Nambu Market.

When they finally walked out of that brightly lit, bustling area and entered a relatively quiet street, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The cool night breeze blew in, carrying the fresh scent of early summer vegetation, diluting the rich, smoky atmosphere of the market and... the overly conspicuous fragrance on Jiang Zhiyu and Lee Tima.

Moonlight like water spilled onto the bluestone-paved street.

Five people—Jiang Zhiyu, Lee Tima, Kim Taeyeon, Kim Jiyong, and Xia Yan—walked slowly on the way home.

The street was very quiet, with only their footsteps and the occasional sound of insects.

The hustle and bustle in the market just now felt like a dream.

"Scared me to death," Xia Yan patted her chest, "Those people... were too exaggerated."

"It's mainly because Zhiyu is too eye-catching," Kim Jiyong said truthfully, "I've lived this long and have never seen such... an attention-grabbing person."

He spoke very tactfully, but everyone understood his meaning.

Jiang Zhiyu took off his mask, revealing a wry smile: "Sorry, I didn't expect this either."

"I already said it's not your fault," Kim Taeyeon emphasized again, but her tone had softened a lot.

Under the moonlight, Jiang Zhiyu's face was even clearer.

The "refreshed" feeling after taking a bath was even more obvious in the moonlight, his skin looked translucent as if it could breathe, and his features were as exquisite as a carving.

Kim Taeyeon looked at his profile, and the irritability in her heart was gradually replaced by another emotion—a complex feeling mixed with admiration, curiosity, and... possession.

But she quickly suppressed those emotions and changed the subject: "Speaking of which, Tima's appetite in the market just now was truly amazing."

Mentioning this, Lee Tima immediately perked up: "That's for sure! I'm a super big eater! I can eat three more servings of tteokbokki!"

"Are you a pig?" Jiang Zhiyu mercilessly retorted.

"Oppa!" Lee Tima glared at him.

Kim Taeyeon watched the two bickering, the corners of her mouth lifting unconsciously.

The night breeze blew, and the fruity scent from Jiang Zhiyu drifted over again; this time it didn't make her feel flustered, but instead gave her an inexplicable sense of peace.

The moonlight was very bright, and she could clearly see everyone's face.

Jiang Zhiyu's profile seemed to be plated with a silver edge in the moonlight, his contours soft and clear.

His eyelashes were very long, casting small shadows under his eyes.

Kim Taeyeon looked at him, and that thought of "locking him up" emerged again, but this time, it wasn't as intense, more like a... gentle possessiveness.

"Speaking of which," Lee Tima suddenly jumped to a topic, "Let's have a competition!"

"A competition?" Xia Yan asked curiously, "What are we competing in?"

"Improvisational songwriting!" Lee Tima's eyes lit up, pointing at the moon in the sky, "Using the current scene—summer night, moonlight, the road home—as the theme, let's compose a song on the spot! Time limit... ten minutes!"

This proposal piqued everyone's interest.

As a professional singer, Kim Taeyeon was naturally very interested in this kind of challenge.

Although Kim Jiyong and Xia Yan didn't understand composition, they also wanted to join in the fun.

Jiang Zhiyu smiled: "Sure. Who goes first?"

"I'll go first!" Lee Tima didn't hesitate to take the lead.

She stopped, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath.

The night breeze blew her hair, and the moonlight shone on her face, making her look like a little elf who had fallen into the mortal world.

A few seconds later, she opened her eyes and began to hum.

That was a gentle and slightly melancholic melody.

The prelude was very light, like the sound of moonlight spilling onto the ground.

Then the melody gradually unfolded, like a scroll slowly unfurling at night.

The lyrics flowed naturally from her mouth:

"This summer, this moonlit night, walking on this road",

"The road home",

"The wind blows, ruffling my hair",

"Hearing a dog barking over there",

"Do you remember, this road from childhood",

"The time when I walked holding Mom's hand",

"Back then I didn't know, that this moment",

"Would be so precious"

Her voice was clear and full of emotion, the melody simple yet moving.

Although the lyrics were improvised and slightly rough in some places, the sincere emotion completely made up for the technical shortcomings.

After singing the last line, she opened her eyes and looked at everyone expectantly.

"Wow..." Xia Yan was the first to applaud, "Tima is amazing! That sounds so good!"

Kim Jiyong also nodded in praise: "It has a great feeling, it's really like it's describing the road we are walking on right now."

Kim Taeyeon looked at Lee Tima quietly, an indescribable emotion surging in her heart.

This child looked naughty and mischievous, like a little devil who would never grow up.

But in music, the talent and sensitivity she displayed were simply shocking.

Improvisation, ten minutes, a complete verse and chorus, beautiful melody, fitting lyrics...

Is this a real person?

Jiang Zhiyu seemed to notice Kim Taeyeon's gaze, and he explained softly: "TG Entertainment's selection standards are very strict. Jieun's talent and potential are unique in this age group."

When he said this, his tone was full of undisguised pride.

Lee Tima puffed out her chest proudly, like a proud little peacock.

But Jiang Zhiyu's next sentence immediately made her pout:

"Of course, her appetite is also unique."

"Yah?!" Lee Tima's eyes widened, "Oppa!!"

Everyone laughed.

After laughing, everyone's gaze turned to Jiang Zhiyu.

"It's your turn," Lee Tima looked at him provocatively, "Let me see how amazing Oppa's improvisation is!"
