Hancheng: There is a door between me and the future

Chapter 18 "Let her use my pocket money to buy you a car"

"Want to go see her?"

The voice in her ear was like a spell, silently entangled in Krystal's heart, evoking all her concerns and hesitations.

She could also truly feel the seduction and temptation.

But in the end, she was silent for a long time and finally suppressed the throbbing. After a long silence, she shook her head and said, "Let's not go for now. I need to prepare myself mentally first."

At this point, she looked away from the poster and instead met Lin Xiuyuan's gaze. "Honestly, it took me several years to finally calm down, and then you suddenly brought me back here. For a moment, I don't know whether to be happy or sad."

The drizzle was like smoke, and the night grew darker.

Lin Xiuyuan, who was standing side by side with her, certainly couldn't empathize with her when listening to these words. He was so young and had never experienced the separation between life and death.

However, in addition to his extraordinary ability to act, he has another advantage, which is that he will not force others.

If you don’t want to go, then forget it.

"Yeah, it's okay, I was just suggesting it."

Facing the somewhat embarrassed Lin Xiuyuan, Krystal gave him a rare gentle look and chuckled, "Anyway, you're here. Once I'm mentally prepared, I hope you won't refuse to open the door for me."

"No, there's a fee anyway." Lin Xiuyuan replied.

At this point, Krystal glanced down at her soaked trouser legs and shoes, and suddenly had an idea. "How about I give you a taxi? I ​​can't just take a taxi with you every time I come over. It's easy to get discovered."

"what?"

Lin Xiuyuan has never received any formal gifts since he was a child. He just has a nice meal on his birthday.

I didn't expect that suddenly I heard someone was going to give me a car, which was a bit shocking.

However, he had already prepared himself mentally for this when he decided to approach Jessica. So after a slight surprise, he nodded readily, "Yeah, I think it's okay. I don't mind at all."

Krystal was a little troubled. "But now there is a problem. How can I give you the money?"

Lin Xiuyuan said, "Well, I haven't thought about this problem. I just thought about asking your sister here and there. So, why don't I just ask your sister."

The two started chatting again and continued walking forward, but when passing by the poster, Krystal couldn't help but look up, and Lin Xiuyuan also cooperated by raising his umbrella.

Looking at the poster, Krystal's smile became much more relaxed. Thinking about Lin Yi's suggestion, she smiled and said, "That's fine. Just tell unnie to give you the pocket money she snatched from me over the years and let you use it to buy a car. That will be considered a gift from me."

"Ok?"

Lin Xiuyuan, who is not much of a fan, doesn't quite understand this joke.

Krystal also cheerfully explained to him how her pocket money was stolen when she was a child, which made Lin Xiuyuan laugh after hearing it. "I thought this kind of thing only happened in ordinary families, but I didn't expect that a wealthy family like yours would also do this."

"We're not rich at all. We're from a normal family. If we were rich, there's no way my sister and I would still be in this circle."

Facing Krystal's explanation, Lin Xiuyuan asked, "Isn't it because of love?"

"I……"

Krystal, who wanted to tease again, was suddenly speechless.

The dream that we could freely complain about in 2025 seemed to have an extra filter after returning to the time and space of 2013.

After a moment of silence, Krystal, who didn't know how to respond, chose to avoid the question and changed the subject. "Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. I'm hungry. Let's go find something to eat somewhere else."

"Huh? Hungry?"

Lin Xiuyuan suddenly stopped and looked back at the entrance of the alley less than a few hundred meters away. The two people had just come out of the restaurant.

Now tell me, are you hungry?

Krystal knew what she said was indeed a bit outrageous, but she continued, "You just saw that I didn't eat at all. You were the one eating the whole time, so isn't it normal for me to be hungry?"

"Then... can we eat some more later?"

Lin Xiuyuan pointed behind him.

But Krystal refused, "No, let's go to another place. I suddenly want to go to the next place to reminisce."

"Ah, memories again? Dismantled again?"

"Well, it's really being demolished this time. It will be gone in two years. The barbecue there is very fresh, so let's go over and have some." "Then let's go."

……

……

"Ouni, let's go have some barbecue."

In the dim dormitory, Park Ji-yeon, who had slept all day, walked out of the room and suggested when she saw the figure sitting on the sofa.

Only her red and swollen eyes showed that she did not sleep well.

The figure who heard the voice slowly looked up, and the neon light under the rain poured in through the curtains and shone on the neat short hair.

Sitting on the sofa, Xian Enjing's eyes were wandering, and it was obvious that she had just come out of the depths of her thoughts. "Ah, let's go, let's eat, but it's raining heavily outside, where can we go to eat?"

Park Ji-yeon suggested, “Let’s go to the BBQ restaurant that Sunkyu-unnie took us to before.”

Ham Eun Jung nodded, then thought for a moment, "Okay, how about calling Hyo Min and Ya Lin?"

"Hyomin-unnie seems to have an event, Yalin... give her a shout."

Thinking about the new maknae who was going to form a small team with herself and others, Park Ji-yeon couldn't help but think of the things that happened last year, and her little head, which had been raised, drooped again.

It has been more than half a year, and she still finds it difficult to get out of that haze.

……

……

On the other hand, Krystal said she was going to eat something, but it was unclear whether she felt relaxed after seeing Sulli's poster or if she had completely let go of the depression.

He walked all the way in the rain with Lin Xiuyuan behind him.

It’s been a long, long journey.

The road seemed to have no end, from the busy pedestrian street to the quiet alley, from the shopping mall to the intersection, and finally to a small platform by the Han River.

Along the way, she was the one who took the initiative to bring up topics, and Lin Xiuyuan would only speak occasionally to prove that he was still there.

For example, the rainstorm stage at the beginning of "LA chA TA".

He asked, "Do you remember the date?"

She replied, "How could I forget the night of October 18, 2009?"

For example, the rainstorm stage at the music festival.

He asked, "Do you remember what song it was?"

She replied, "Electric shock, I can still dance to it now."

For example, the rainstorm stage at the end of "4wall".

But this time Lin Xiuyuan didn't ask, and she didn't have to answer, because they had already arrived at the destination for their next midnight snack.

To sum up our conversation, it seems that her group has been inextricably linked with rain from the very beginning.

It was a stormy road of growth, which began with the debut song of the "five-member" group and ended with the debut song of the "four-member" group.

However, this life path, which originally only allowed one to move forward and not reverse, is gradually undergoing earth-shaking changes after meeting Lin Xiuyuan.
