Chapter 219: 【still Asleep?】or【asleep, Go To Sleep】
2013.
Inside Girls’ Generation’s dormitory.
Kim Tae Yeon, lying on the bed, was looking at that reply on the screen, stunned for a moment, her gaze filled with confusion.
What does 【gone to sleep】 mean.
【Gone to sleep】 then who replied to me.
While pondering, she felt an inexplicable displeasure.
If you don’t want to talk, just ignore me, but replying with that sentence like this, is it revenge for me calling you a pervert last time, and provoking me, right.
Thinking of this, Kim Tae Yeon immediately gritted her teeth, then opened the chat window and quickly typed a long line of text.
After casually glancing at the content, she unhesitatingly sent it to Lin Xiuyuan.
Kim Tae Yeon: 【You petty ghost, I didn’t say anything wrong, your appearance last time really made people suspicious. I know you helped me last time, at most I’ll apologize, is there any need to brush me off like this. Still sleeping, if you’re sleeping who replied to me】
However, after sending this message, Kim Tae Yeon waited several minutes but still received no reply, her brows furrowing tighter, veins pulsing on her forehead.
Swipe swipe swipe, more text messages followed.
Kim Tae Yeon: 【Hey, ignoring people is really too much】
Kim Tae Yeon: 【Wait, you really went to sleep?】
Kim Tae Yeon: 【Are you a pig, replying to me one second and passing out the next】
Kim Tae Yeon: 【Say something, where are you.】
Kim Tae Yeon: 【……】
Kim Tae Yeon: 【Jerk】
……
Inside the apartment.
After sending that message, Lin Xiuyuan had put his mobile phone back on the coffee table, then got up and walked toward the time-space door.
He’d been messing around for quite a while, it was time to go back, otherwise it would be hard to explain if Big Dragon Cub woke up.
However, just as he left, the mobile phone on the coffee table began vibrating intensely, messages pouring in one after another, the screen flashing nonstop.
But he didn’t see any of them.
Until the entire room gradually darkened.
By then, Lin Xiuyuan had already lain back down beside Big Dragon Cub on her side in 25 years, holding that figure who groggily burrowed into his arms, and fell asleep.
……
However, over at Girls’ Generation’s dormitory.
After sending the last message, Kim Tae Yeon saw no reply from Lin Xiuyuan, flipped over holding the bedding and pillow, and started freaking out, “Ah, pissing me off, pissing me off, bastard, pervert, jerk…”
Click~
Sunny, having finished showering and blow-drying her hair, walked to the doorway, watching Kim Tae Yeon’s actions with some confusion, “Taeyeon, are you okay.”
“I’m fine.”
After a brief bout of irritation and twitching, Kim Tae Yeon returned to normal, brushed her hair, and sat up with a smile.
Sunny walked in, muttering, “You don’t look fine at all.”
“Nonsense.” Kim Tae Yeon huffed lightly.
Sunny, sitting back on her own bed, changed the topic, “By the way, Taeyeon. Why did Yoona insist on going back to rest tonight? We have to head to Busan early tomorrow morning, and it’s already early morning, yet she still went home.”
“Who knows, Yoona’s been acting weird lately, completely different from before.” Kim Tae Yeon frowned, gently biting her lip.
“Yeah, I think so too, Sulli too.” Sunny nodded lightly.
Then the two exchanged a glance, and the next second said that name in unison.
“Lin Xiuyuan.”*2
……
……
The next day, Lin Xiuyuan woke up in Big Dragon Cub’s apartment in 25 years, his eyes slightly squinting, still drowsy as he glanced around.
The comfortable bed from last night was now empty, the beauty beside him long gone.
After opening his eyes and scanning around, Lin Xiuyuan closed them again, turned over, wrapped himself in the quilt, and lazed in bed for a bit.
Only when the sleepiness fully dissipated did he stretch lazily, rub his temples, thinking luckily he’d come back in time last night.
He really hadn’t expected that after just a quick trip back, that restless married woman, after burrowing into his arms, started craving again.
Although the bun was swollen and unusable, her tongue was still very flexible.
Then he grabbed his mobile phone to check the time; it was already noon, time to get up.
So he slowly sat up from the bed, dragging a just-woken look as he walked out of the bedroom.
The apartment was somewhat quiet now, not much noise, the air filled with the warm scent of sunlight streaming in, soft light spots cast on the wooden floor.
Lin Xiuyuan absentmindedly walked toward the living room, planning to see what Big Dragon Cub was doing.
However, just as he entered the living room, his gaze locked onto a figure on the sofa.
On the opposite sofa sat Park Hyomin, wearing loose home clothes, holding her mobile phone, seemingly looking at something.
Hearing the footsteps, she looked up in surprise, stunned upon seeing Lin Xiuyuan, then glanced uncertainly at the place she was in, subconsciously wondering if she’d gone to the wrong place.
Looking at her pajamas, that appearance, last night…
Thinking of this, Park Hyomin couldn’t help recalling her maknae’s birthday wish; she’d thought it was just for fun, at most occasional meals to fill the stomach.
But now it seemed she’d directly moved into the home, which felt off.
While Park Hyomin was full of surprise, Lin Xiuyuan was also startled by the unexpected encounter, his heart skipping a beat before he put on a feigned relaxed smile, “Good morning, Hyo Min xi.”
Actually, the honorific in his greeting already betrayed his inner panic.
After all, the woman before him was a real married woman.
“Good morning.” Park Hyomin’s gaze lingered on Lin Xiuyuan, her eyes carrying some confusion and questions.
“Uh, where’s Ji-yeon.”
“Went downstairs to get things.”
After a simple exchange, Lin Xiuyuan nodded lightly, just about to say something more.
Right then, speak of the devil, the apartment room door opened, and Big Dragon Cub walked in from outside.
Upon seeing Lin Xiuyuan, she smiled happily, “Oh, Xiuyuan~ you’re awake.”
“Yeah, you two chat first.”
Glancing at the bag in Big Dragon Cub’s hand, with the underwear brand logo on it—he’d just torn two sets last night.
So he very sensibly returned to the bedroom.
After using the bathroom, washing up, and getting dressed, Lin Xiuyuan walked out of the room again and returned to the living room.
Then he greeted Big Dragon Cub and Park Hyomin on the sofa, “Uh, Ji-yeon, I have some things to do soon, so I’ll head back first.”
“Ah, won’t you stay for lunch.” Big Dragon Cub stood up and said, then looked at Park Hyomin, “Older sister will leave soon.”
As soon as the words fell, Park Hyomin rolled her eyes; this maknae was too straightforward.
Likewise, Lin Xiuyuan laughed.
He first glanced at Park Hyomin, nodded lightly to her, then looked at Big Dragon Cub and said, “It’s not about that, hahaha, I really have things to do.”
He needed to hurry back to pick up Im Yoon Ah; what if she had something to do here, it was already noon.
“Alright then, keep in touch by phone, don’t disappear again.”
Seeing Lin Xiuyuan insist on leaving, Big Dragon Cub wasn’t a little girl anymore and didn’t throw a tantrum.
After just one reminder, she walked over and saw Lin Xiuyuan off to the elevator.
Then gave him a hot kiss before letting him enter the elevator.
Watching the elevator doors slowly close, Big Dragon Cub returned to the apartment.
As soon as she entered, she heard Park Hyomin’s teasing voice, “Oh ho, older sister will leave soon, Xiuyuan stay behind, I can’t bear to part with you~”
“Ah, older sister, don’t be so funny.”
Big Dragon Cub chuckled at the teasing, then walked over to throw a punch at Park Hyomin, who quickly dodged.
This maknae’s fist—no one in the group dared touch it except Eun-jung.
After dodging the danger, Park Hyomin asked seriously, “Ji-yeon, didn’t you say before you were just messing around with this guy? How did it turn into living here? Don’t get too carried away.”
Reasons came effortlessly to Big Dragon Cub, no problem at all, “It’s fine, older sister. I’m just avoiding being discovered; after all, hotels have too many hidden cameras, going back and forth too much makes it easy to be staked out, better to be comfortable in the apartment.”
“You better be. I just feel like you’ve been hiding too much from me lately, like how did Goo Ri older sister run off to Maldives alone last time, without inviting me.”
“Older sister, didn’t you just go on honeymoon.”
Big Dragon Cub smiled; no way they’d invite you, Xiuyuan’s little fetish was too awful.
“Right, Ji-yeon, I have a schedule coming up that I might not make, want to join.”
“What?”
“Daesung’s variety show, targeting that Family Outing reunion episode.”
……
……
Downstairs.
By now, Lin Xiuyuan had gotten into the car, stepped on the accelerator, and the car quickly left the parking lot, heading straight for the villa.
Luckily it wasn’t far from Gangnam District, and being noon there was no peak commute time traffic, so he soon got back there.
Upon returning to the villa, he didn’t linger, went straight into the living room, opened the time-space door, and stepped into Lin Xiaolu’s apartment.
Inside 2013’s Xiaolu Apartment, it was peaceful.
Sunlight streamed through the large floor-to-ceiling window, illuminating a corner of the room, the air filled with faint midday tranquility.
Lin Xiuyuan scanned the living room and kitchen, saw no one, then turned to the master bedroom doorway and gently pushed it open.
Inside, warm sunlight spilled onto the bed, Im Yoon Ah lay quietly on the bed, breathing steadily, seemingly still fast asleep.
Her posture was soft and natural, still wearing last night’s pajamas, her expression serene, as if completely unaware of the outside changes.
Seeing this, Lin Xiuyuan couldn’t help showing a gentle smile, quietly walked to the bedside, lay down, and from the side gently pulled her into his arms.
Warm body heat instantly enveloped him, and Im Yoon Ah groggily nestled into his chest, rubbing slightly, as if seeking more warmth.
Lin Xiuyuan gently patted her back, “Still sleeping?”
Hearing the voice, Im Yoon Ah slightly opened her sleepy eyes, and upon seeing the man before her.
Couldn’t help flipping on top, pressing onto his body, a corner of her mouth carrying a sleepy smile.
“Sleep, sleep you.”
