The living room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Tang Jinyan could even hear their heartbeats.
If this girl's previous behavior was quite inexplicable, then today's sentence of "I'm here to accompany you" was tantamount to making everything clear.
This was a confession.
Many images flashed through Tang Jinyan's mind.
On that rainy night, the warmth and softness on his cheeks.
After Lin Yuner appeared, she was nervous and anxious.
When she was having dinner with Zhao Mingren and the others, she treated herself as his real girlfriend and claimed that she was "Oni's replacement".
After dinner, she stayed at his house almost unguarded. If Zhixiao was not there, would she have "replaced" more times?
After Lin Yuner's scandal broke out, she went straight from Seoul to Jeju Island. With a face full of hardships, she hugged her knees and sat on the sofa.
When Lin Yuner deliberately teased her, she kissed his cheek without hesitation.
The messy images were slowly pieced together to form a coherent plot.
Was she just nervous about losing him?
Was it just for Oni?
For the team?
Perhaps in the early days, even she could not accurately judge what kind of emotions she had. It was only recently that she began to truly understand her own heart when she was mixed in with the crowd …
"Dong!" The sound of the clock woke the two of them up from their silence.
Tang Jinyan looked up at the clock on the wall. It was exactly midnight.
He finally broke the silence and smiled as he pinched Park Ji-yeon's nose. "Happy birthday, Ji-yeon.
You're twenty years old now, not a little girl anymore. "
Park Ji-yeon wrinkled her nose and did not say anything.
She was still a little nervous.
What she said just now was indeed no different from a confession. As soon as this little girl who had just turned twenty said it, her face burned. She was embarrassed and worried that he would reject her without any leeway and rush her back to her room to sleep …
Fortunately, that did not happen. As usual, he pinched her nose affectionately and said "Happy birthday".
Park Ji-yeon felt a little regretful that she was twenty years old today and not nineteen. If it was last year, she could have confidently asked him for a three-piece coming-of-age gift — perfume, roses, and … a kiss.
But today was not the right day. She could not ask for it …
While her mind was wandering, Park Ji-yeon suddenly felt a burst of warmth on her face, which quickly disappeared.
She turned her head to the side in a daze and watched as Tang Jinyan kissed her gently on the cheek. Her heart almost jumped out of her throat.
Did he really kiss me?
How could he kiss me?
No, how could he pull back after kissing her? He hadn't even experienced what it felt like!
"Alright." Tang Jinyan rubbed her head. "Aren't your legs numb after squatting for so long?
Go back to sleep. "
"Actually …" Park Ji-yeon bit her lower lip and stammered, "Your bet is to not go to Soyeon Oni and Juli Oni's place …"
His voice grew softer and softer, to the point that Pu Hyomin, who was eavesdropping, had to concentrate hard to hear him.
Pu Hyomin gulped and slowly widened her eyes.
Tonight, listening from the corner was too exciting!
What Zhi Yan said was …
Was there a second half to the sentence?
Pu Hyomin's heart pounded as she stared nervously at Park Ji-yeon. However, the little girl lowered her head and stammered for a long time. In the end, she was unable to say the second half of the sentence. She stomped her feet and wanted to stand up and return to her room.
However, as soon as she stood up, her legs went numb and she almost fell.
Tang Jinyan quickly pulled Park Ji-yeon back and her elbow hit his stomach hard.
"F * ck …" Tang Jinyan was in so much pain that his eyes bulged and he almost spat out blood.
Why was it this script?
What happened to the promised warm and fragrant body?
Inside, Pu Hyomin covered her mouth and almost laughed out loud.
On the other side, Park Ji-yeon hurriedly propped herself up. In her panic, she only remembered to avoid touching his stomach and pushed down. In the end, her palm landed heavily on his manhood.
Tang Jinyan arched his body like a shrimp. "M … kill …"
Park Ji-yeon blushed and could not say another word. She turned around and ran back to her room. "Bang!" She slammed the door shut.
Pu Hyo-min was hugging her stomach in her room. She was laughing so hard that she bent over.
Tang Jinyan hugged the giant chicken and grimaced in pain. How could he fall asleep?
About ten minutes later, the door upstairs suddenly opened. Tang Jinyan shuddered and closed his eyes to pretend to be asleep.
Pu Hyomin was also shocked. Her smile disappeared without a trace and she continued to sneak a peek outside.
Park Soyeon walked down quietly, as if she was afraid of waking Tang Jinyan. She carefully walked to his side and looked at him gently for a while. Then, she pulled up the blanket that had slid to the ground and covered Tang Jinyan neatly.
Then, she leaned over and kissed him on the forehead before quietly returning to her room.
Pu Hyomin was silent.
It was obvious why Tang Jinyan respected Soyeon's ban so much.
But now, Soyeon herself was wavering, right?
Since she was not asleep, and the commotion in the hall was not small, it was impossible that she did not notice at all.
Was this … tacit consent?
Speaking of which, Zhi Yan was quite pitiful. It was just a confession, but who knew how many eyes were watching?
*****
The next day, Pu Hyomin saw three pairs of dark circles.
One was her reflection in the mirror, and the other two were, of course, Tang Jinyan and Park Ji-yeon.
During breakfast, a group of people happily sat at the table and drank porridge. Park Ji-yeon lowered her head and stirred the porridge in her bowl. She did not even dare to look at Tang Jinyan.
Her behavior was too obvious, and all the sisters were puzzled.
Park Soyeon asked casually, "What are you doing, Zhi Yan?
Did someone sneak into your room last night? "
It would have been better if she did not ask, but now that she asked, Park Ji-yeon's head almost fell into her bowl.
"Ahem …" Tang Jinyan knocked on Park Soyeon's bowl. "Do I look like someone who doesn't keep his word?"
Pu Hyomin could not help but interject, "The bet did not restrict you from going to Zhi Yan's room."
"…" Park Ji-yeon really wanted to bury her face in her porridge.
Tang Jinyan looked at Pu Hyomin and was a little puzzled.
He and Zhi Yan could not sleep because of the unspeakable moonlight last night. But why did Pu Hyomin have dark circles?
He asked tentatively, "You didn't sleep well either?"
Pu Hyomin stammered, "I tortured you. I was too, too excited, hahaha …"
"Look at how useless you are."
Tang Jinyan did not take it too seriously. He chewed on his bread and said casually, "Today is Zhi Yan's birthday. Everyone, don't practice and rest for the day."
Park Ji-yeon knew what he meant. He saw that she did not sleep well and deliberately found an excuse to let her have a chance to catch up on sleep.
She said awkwardly in a low voice, "No need …"
Tang Jinyan glared at her and said, "I'm the CEO and you're the CEO?
Today is T-ara's holiday. That's all. "
Park Ji-yeon was especially weak in front of him today. When he glared at her, she immediately puffed up her cheeks and stopped talking.
This self-righteous and shameless … Speaking of which, he seemed to be everyone's boss now. Everyone had not gotten used to this new change in identity …
Li Juli looked around at the different expressions on everyone's faces with a half-smile and leisurely performed the role of a team leader. "Then let's rest."
Park Ji-yeon did not insist. She finished her porridge in a few mouthfuls and went back to her room, exhausted.
Pu Hyomin followed closely behind and quickly slipped back to catch up on sleep.
Park Soyeon looked at Tang Jinyan with a smile. "What about you?"
"I'm not sleeping."
"Accompany us shopping?"
"I'm going to practice Starcraft!"
Park Soyeon leisurely drank her porridge and said slowly, "So you still want to sleep in Hyomin's room?"
Tang Jinyan straightened his neck. "I'm courageous after being humiliated. I want to get back at her fair and square!"
The girls did not seem to hear him at all. Han Eun-kyung turned to Quan Baolan and asked, "Practice Starcraft Sleeping Room. What do you think of this ambition?"
Quan Baolan touched her chin thoughtfully. "High ambition."
Tang Jinyan pointed at them, annoyed and amused. Li Juli stretched and yawned. "Anyway, we're going shopping.
There are two beauties sleeping in the spring at home. Don't say we didn't give you a chance … "

PS: How many of you remember the saying "Practice Starcraft Sleeping Room" many years ago? Those who remember, raise your hand and see how many people of the same age have the same interests?
