Chapter 299: Jung Soo Yeon And Jessica’s【loving Breakfast】
The next day in the early morning, around five o’clock, the sky had not yet fully brightened, and the entire sky over Seoul was still shrouded in a serene blue-gray hue.
At this time, Jung Soo Yeon’s mobile phone on the bedside table buzzed and vibrated, the screen lighting up to show a call from her assistant.
She, who had already woken up, had also simply applied a light layer of makeup by now, covering up some of the fatigue from staying up late.
So she picked up the mobile phone and answered the call, and the assistant’s voice came from that side, “Oni~ The car is already downstairs, are you ready?”
“Mm, all set, coming down now.”
Hearing this, Jung Soo Yeon responded crisply, her voice very clear, without a trace of the hoarseness of just waking up.
Then after hanging up the phone, she picked up a lightweight jacket and draped it over her arm, checked her personal items, opened the door, and prepared to head to the company to meet up with the other members first, then go to the airport together.
But just as she reached the entryway and bent down to change shoes, the corner of her eye suddenly caught sight of something next to the shoe cabinet.
It was two tied food bags, carefully fastened together.
One of the bags contained two plastic boxes, vaguely showing a pile of packed soup dumplings.
The other bag held neatly sliced, enticing golden and sauce-colored layered savory pancakes.
Next to the two bags stood a cup of soy milk in an eco-friendly paper cup.
Seeing this, Jung Soo Yeon’s shoe-changing motion froze instantly, and she blinked in disbelief.
Then she subconsciously reached out, her fingertip lightly touching the outer wall of the soy milk cup, which was still warm.
The warm sensation made her eyelashes tremble lightly in surprise.
Lowering her head, she saw the sticky note pressed under the soy milk cup, with several words that weren’t particularly pretty but were clear and earnest: 【Remember to eat breakfast】
Seeing this line of words and this sudden yet perfectly timed breakfast, if Jung Soo Yeon still didn’t know who had quietly delivered it and how, she would truly be a fool.
At the same time, an indescribable warm current surged into her heart, dispersing the drowsiness of waking up in the early morning.
Her face uncontrollably broke into a happy smile with a touch of smugness, but then as if remembering something, she pursed her pink lips forcefully and let out a light hum.
Muttering in a voice only she could hear, “Hmph, don’t think one breakfast can brush off last night’s matter, wishful thinking, Lin Xiuyuan.”
Though she said that, when she carried the warm breakfast and soy milk and got into the MPV waiting downstairs, her slightly upturned mouth and sparkling gaze completely betrayed her extremely delighted mood at the moment.
And this car, before coming to pick her up, had already gone to a nearby residential area to pick up another member.
So when Sunny saw Jung Soo Yeon not only coming down on time but also carrying what was clearly takeout breakfast steaming with heat, she was instantly shocked and widened her still-sleepy eyes.
“Oh my!! Soo Yeon, where did this breakfast come from?? Amazing, and it’s still hot.”
While exclaiming, Sunny curiously reached out to touch the cup holding the soy milk, confirming its real temperature.
This touch also dispelled all her sleepiness, making her fully awake, her gaze fixed intently on the bags in Jung Soo Yeon’s hands.
Jung Soo Yeon beside her elegantly sat in her seat without directly answering Sunny’s question.
First placing the soy milk in the nearby cup holder, then carefully opening the lid of the plastic box with the buns, a wave of hot steam mixed with dough and meat filling rushed toward her face.
She had eaten these soup dumplings before, during schedules in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
But for some reason, just the smell of this box made her feel it might be the best she’d ever had.
Then she picked up the disposable chopsticks thoughtfully prepared nearby, picked up one, took a small bite, and the fresh and delicious taste made her squint her eyes in satisfaction.
Sunny sitting beside her, seeing Jung Soo Yeon eating with such enjoyment and smelling the constantly wafting enticing aroma, unconsciously swallowed, and couldn’t help but sneakily reach out her little hand, planning to take one to taste.
“Pa!”
A light sound, her hand back was lightly tapped by Jung Soo Yeon with the end of the chopsticks.
“Yah~ What are you doing.” Sunny, feeling the sting, widened her eyes in grievance and disbelief, “Can’t I have just one? You’re too stingy, Jung Soo Yeon.”
The named Jung Soo Yeon leisurely swallowed the bun in her mouth, then picked up the other bag with the layered pancakes and shoved it into Sunny’s arms, saying in a tone like bestowing charity, “Here, eat this.”
Compared to this unseen oily-looking pancake, she felt it was better to keep those juicy soup dumplings for herself.
At this, Sunny pouted, somewhat helplessly taking the pancake bag, using a bamboo skewer to pick up a piece and put it in her mouth.
But the next second, her eyes suddenly lit up!
“Mm, so good!”
Sunny praised vaguely with her mouth full after one bite, her chewing speed clearly quickening, “Super good, crispy on the outside, soft inside, and the sauce flavor is especially fragrant. Soo Yeon, this is way better than those Indian flying pancakes we had before.”
Beside her, Jung Soo Yeon, who had been sipping the fragrant thick hand-ground soy milk, couldn’t help but feel curiosity upon hearing Sunny’s unmasked praise.
Then she set down the soy milk, also picked up a clean bamboo skewer, speared a piece of golden oily savory pancake from the bag in Sunny’s arms, and put it in her mouth.
Her teeth first felt the crispness of the fried crust, accompanied by a faint “crunch.”
Immediately after was the layered, soft yet chewy inner dough.
Moderately salty and fragrant sauce mixed with sesame and green onion aroma burst in her mouth.
Indeed very delicious!
So Sunny, who had just contentedly finished her second savory pancake and was preparing to attack the third, discovered the next second that the pancake bag in her arms had vanished.
In its place was shoved the soup dumpling box that Jung Soo Yeon had previously guarded tightly.
There was now about half left inside.
And that bag of delicious savory pancakes had returned to Jung Soo Yeon’s arm bend, guarded by her arm as if it were some rare treasure.
Sunny looked at the half box of soup dumplings in her arms that looked delicious but clearly had far fewer, then at Jung Soo Yeon’s possessive appearance, and couldn’t help complaining, “Yah, Soo Yeon, really? I only ate two pieces, can you eat that much by yourself?”
Facing the accusation, Jung Soo Yeon elegantly speared another savory pancake and put it in her mouth, slightly raising her brow.
Using actions to indicate that all of this was… mine, all mine.
More than ten minutes later, the MPV arrived downstairs at the dormitory building and gathered with the other two cars.
At this time, Lin Xiaolu, Kim Soft Soft, and others coming down from the dormitory were drowsily preparing to get in the car to catch up on sleep.
But soon, their gazes were drawn to Jung Soo Yeon arriving behind and opening the door, or rather to the two food bags in her arms and the half-finished soy milk cup in her hand, all showing shocked expressions.
“Soo Yeon Oni! Where did you get breakfast?!”
“Wow! Smells so good!”
“Is it Chinese breakfast?!”
Amid a small burst of exclamations, these girls who hadn’t eaten breakfast and were starving rushed forward like sparrows spotting prey, starting to “friendly” snatch the delicious food in Jung Soo Yeon’s arms.
Luckily Jung Soo Yeon had already eaten until seventy to eighty percent full, so facing this scene of wolves circling, she only symbolically protected it a bit before “helplessly” smiling and letting them divide it up.
She herself held the warm soy milk, standing by the car door sipping it slowly, her mouth holding a faint, somewhat proud smile, very enjoyably watching the lively scene of the members scrambling for food.
A little while later, Lin Xiaolu, with the last soup dumpling in her mouth and cheeks puffed, sidled up to Jung Soo Yeon.
Although she didn’t speak, she blinked her lively deer eyes, her gaze full of curiosity, as if silently asking: Oni, he prepared this breakfast, right?
Jung Soo Yeon turned her head to meet Lin Xiaolu’s gaze, looking at the soup dumpling in her mouth, her smile deepening a bit.
Then with a meaning only they understood, she nodded lightly and responded in a breathy voice, “Mm, just as you’re thinking.”
Hearing this, Lin Xiaolu’s chewing slowed down directly, a sour feeling she couldn’t quite name surging in her heart, like knocking over a little jar of vinegar.
After all, she hadn’t enjoyed such treatment of someone quietly thinking of her and delivering warm breakfast yet.
Jerk man, eat clean and run, huh.
……
……
2025, Magic City apartment.
Lin Xiuyuan, who had labored hard all night, was now shirtless, wearing only loose home shorts, sitting on the somewhat wrinkled sofa eating breakfast.
This was what he had specially gone downstairs to a street-side breakfast shop to buy after coaxing Jessica to sleep earlier; after delivering one portion to 2013 Jung Soo Yeon’s apartment entryway, completing a time-space feeding.
He then returned to the Magic City apartment to quietly enjoy his own portion.
He had also thoughtfully kept another portion of soup dumplings and soy milk warm in the kitchen using an insulated box, for Jessica to eat when she woke up.
And just as Lin Xiuyuan had almost finished eating and was preparing to tidy up, a faint door-opening sound came from the bedroom direction.
Immediately after was Jessica’s voice thick with sleepiness and a bit hoarse calling out, “Xiuyuan? Are you outside?”
This sound made Lin Xiuyuan turn his head in some surprise, while responding, “Mm, here.”
In a moment, Jessica appeared from the corridor behind.
Her long hair somewhat messily draped, her face still carrying lingering lazy drowsiness, not even having put on clothes, simply wrapped in a light-colored cashmere blanket around her body.
The blanket edge outlined alluring curves, barely covering the key spring light, revealing rounded shoulders and delicate collarbones.
However, in stark contrast to the drowsiness on her face was her complexion.
Her entire body glowed with a healthy flush from being fully nourished.
Her gaze was hazy yet watery and shimmering.
She exuded a lazy yet satisfied radiance, completely without the haggardness of staying up late.
Stepping on the carpet, her steps somewhat soft, she walked to Lin Xiuyuan’s side. Jessica looked at him eating breakfast on the sofa and found it somewhat amusing, with a hint of coquettish resentment at being left behind.
Then charmingly and naturally, she sidled into the space in his arms, sitting on his lap and nestling into that warm chest.
“What are you doing?”
“Can’t you see I’m eating breakfast?”
Hearing this, Jessica looked up the next second, laughing in a coquettish tone with a nasal sound, “What, need to sneak some food behind my back to replenish some ‘stamina’?”
Her words full of ambiguous teasing.
Hearing this, Lin Xiuyuan holding her immediately set down the chopsticks and remaining soup dumpling in his hand, lowered his head to look at the woman in his arms, his gaze instantly becoming aggressively predatory.
His mouth hooked into a dangerous arc, “Are you sure I need replenishing?”
That gaze like substance, carrying scorching heat, instantly made Jessica feel a heat flow surge through her body.
Under this gaze, she instinctively clamped her legs, even feeling her calves go a bit weak.
She quickly shook her head, her voice taking on a pleading tone, “Not sure not sure, I was joking~”
Though she considered herself quite voracious in certain needs, facing this guy whose stamina and energy seemed hacked, she truly admitted defeat.
But Jessica didn’t know one thing: it seemed only the earliest Krystal, before he was fully evolved, had successfully drained him a few times.
After that, no one could match him on equal footing in this exercise.
Seeing Jessica’s instantly shift from provocation to surrender in that cute way, Lin Xiuyuan smiled satisfactorily and stopped teasing her.
Then he picked up the chopsticks again, clamped a soup dumpling, and held it to her lips, “Here, eat something, you consumed quite a bit last night too.”
Seeing this, Jessica took a small bite from his hand, the fresh meat filling and soup making her squint in satisfaction, mumbling vaguely while chewing.
“Who torments someone like you do, then turns around to feed them? You’re not planning to let me finish breakfast, recover stamina, then continue ‘tormenting’ me, right?”
Saying this, Jessica cupped Lin Xiuyuan’s face, “Spare me, I have a commercial platform activity tomorrow afternoon, if my legs are too weak to stand steady, that’ll be embarrassing.”
“No more no more~”
Lin Xiuyuan chuckled, using his fingertip to wipe a bit of oil from her mouth corner, “I was just hungry and wanted to quietly eat breakfast, so I didn’t wake you. Who knew you’d wake up from the smell yourself.”
But though Lin Xiuyuan’s words were so considerate, his free hand had already started to misbehave.
His palm carrying scalding heat, quietly slipped into the edge of her wrapped blanket, gently caressing her smooth delicate back.
“Mm…”
This small action made Jessica’s back instantly tense, trembling lightly like an electric shock, nearly choking on the unswallowed bun in her mouth.
So she hurriedly stuffed the remaining bun into her mouth in a couple bites, then like a startled rabbit, jumped out of Lin Xiuyuan’s arms barefoot, rushing straight to the bedroom bathroom without looking back, leaving only a shy annoyed complaint floating in the air.
“I~ I’m going to freshen up.”
Her sudden flight was not only because Lin Xiuyuan’s restless hand had startled her, but more mainly because certain things not belonging to her seemed to have an uncontrollable tendency to spread from the earlier motions.
This made her have to go clean up immediately.
Watching Jessica’s fleeing graceful back, Lin Xiuyuan’s smile deepened.
After leisurely finishing the last two soup dumplings and satisfyingly drinking some soy milk, he stood up and patted his hands.
Looking down around the living room that hadn’t been tidied after last night’s passion and looked somewhat messy, his gaze lingered a moment on a blanket and cushion in a corner, hot scenes flashing in his mind, involuntarily revealing a smile of reminiscence and slight smugness.
Then he turned, stretched lazily, and unhurriedly walked toward the bedroom.
This sound made Lin Xiuyuan’s smile on his face slowly widen, while untying his shorts’ drawstring, he walked toward the bathroom.
Soon, the sound of pattering water came from the bathroom, along with Jessica’s somewhat exasperated and coquettish shout, “Yah~ Lin Xiuyuan~!”
Then a low voice responded to her.
“Mm, I’m here, coming right now to help you ‘properly’ wash up, let you taste my loving breakfast~”
