2025 years.

Early in the morning, Lin Xiuyuan, who was groggily woken up, opened his eyes, looked at Krystal standing at the foot of the bed, and asked after a long sigh, "What time is it?"

"It's past 9 o'clock, get up quickly, Shirley made breakfast, don't let it get cold."

Krystal, dressed in a light purple nightgown, glanced at Lin Xiuyuan's "erect" part with a hint of mockery, and a meaningful smile involuntarily appeared on her lips.

The memories of the previous two times she enjoyed it still seemed to linger on her lips and teeth, making her unable to help but smile.

However, when she saw Lin Xiuyuan turn over and try to continue sleeping, her eyes flashed and her smile widened, as if she had suddenly thought of something.

"Hurry up and get up, I need to change after breakfast. Xiuyuan, do you think I should wear an A-line skirt with black stockings, or a denim skirt with fishnet stockings?"

Ok?
The soft, teasing whisper in his ear instantly dispelled Lin Xiuyuan's desire to stay in bed any longer. He sat up abruptly, "Stockings? Where are we going?"

"There's a brand I need to walk the red carpet for, so how about I dress a bit sexy and give everyone a surprise?"

Seeing the burning passion in the boy's eyes, Krystal smiled at him, her lips curving slightly, and beckoned him with her finger, "Get up quickly, I can... come back without changing clothes tonight."

"get up."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Xiuyuan sat up abruptly from the bed.

For young men, the combination of a mature woman in black stockings is an irresistible temptation, like a dream girl.

Just as Krystal was about to tease him a little more, Sulli's voice came from downstairs, "Soojung, haven't you called oppa yet? I'm almost done."

"Okay, here I come."

After responding to Sherry downstairs, Krystal looked at Lin Xiuyuan again. She originally wanted to urge him to hurry up, but seeing his physical condition, she could only smile helplessly.

"Go take a shower first."

As soon as she finished speaking, she turned and left the bedroom, walking lightly downstairs.

Lin Xiuyuan was left staring at his "morning mark," shaking his head and chuckling helplessly before stepping into the bathroom.

A while later, when Lin Xiuyuan came downstairs drying his hair, he saw Krystal and Shirley carrying breakfast out of the kitchen.

Upon seeing Lin Xiuyuan, Shirley greeted him happily, "Good morning, oppa~"

"Good morning, thank you for your hard work, Sherry. Actually, you don't need to go to all that trouble, just ordering takeout would have been fine."

Sitting down at the dining table, Lin Xiuyuan looked at the sumptuous Western breakfast spread out on the table.

Toast, bacon, fried eggs, milk, and coffee—it was all very fancy, and I couldn't help but marvel at it.

"Shirley, where did you learn this skill? If it were Victoria, shouldn't it be a Chinese breakfast?"

Sulli, who was pouring milk, looked up and smiled cutely, "Tiffany unnie taught me. Back when I was a trainee, I shared a dorm with Tiffany unnie and Taeyeon unnie, so I learned a lot from them, hehe~"

"Oh, Tiffany."

Lin Xiuyuan repeated the name, then turned to look at Krystal, who came out carrying baguettes and purple sweet potatoes, and said, "Oh, and there's more."

"Shirley was worried you wouldn't have enough to eat," the other person replied.

As the last breakfast dish was served, the three of them sat down together and began their breakfast for the new day.

Lin Xiuyuan took a bite of the pan-fried toast, raised an eyebrow, and immediately gave a thumbs up. "Delicious! It tastes much better than what you get at restaurants. What's the reason for that?"

"Honey, this is wild honey that Soojung brought. It's much sweeter than the honey from outside," Shirley said with a smile.

"No wonder."

After muttering to himself for a moment, Lin Xiuyuan asked the two about their plans for the day.

Shirley thought for a moment, "After I told the company about my idea, they agreed, so my workload started to decrease. I'm not too busy anymore, just occasionally rehearsing with everyone."

Her condition had actually been examined at the hospital long ago, and SM Entertainment and her manager were aware of it.

So when Shirley wanted to rest for this reason, although there were some twists and turns, she was eventually allowed to.

"I have a red carpet appearance, didn't I tell you?"

"I'm peeling a purple sweet potato," Krystal said, handing the peeled sweet potato to Shirley next to her, her tone carrying a hint of casual questioning.

"So what about you? Do you have a date today? I heard from Sulli that Yoona unnie was looking for you yesterday. I hope nothing like that happens here."

"Yesterday was an accident. I'll go check my phone in a bit."

Lin Xiuyuan, feeling a bit embarrassed after being teased, said, "But I do have an appointment today. I'm having lunch with Yoona here, so Shirley, are you coming back to 2013 with me later, or are you going to rest here?"

After hearing this, Krystal glanced at him sideways and took back the purple sweet potato she was about to hand to him.

I took a bite myself; it would have been better to eat it myself than to give it to him.

"I'll go back, otherwise it'll be troublesome if others can't find me."

While eating a purple sweet potato, Shirley replied that unlike Lin Xiuyuan, who was an ordinary person, she still had to go if there were any last-minute appointments that required her to fill in.

And so, after breakfast, the three of them went about their own business.

Krystal said goodbye and went back to her apartment to change clothes, only complaining before leaving that she must bring her wardrobe next time she comes.

After cleaning up the kitchen, Lin Xiuyuan and Shirley crossed the time portal and returned to 2013.

Upon returning to this area, Sulli immediately looked next door and asked, "Oppa, has the house next door responded yet?"

"I asked, and we're in talks. Their asking price is higher than mine, so let's discuss it first. There's no rush."

Lin Xiuyuan's reply elicited laughter from Shirley, "Oppa, didn't you say this was a haunted house? It's normal that the ones next door charge higher prices."

"Does a house next to a haunted house not also not become a haunted house?"

He replied lazily.

Sulli didn't argue with her oppa about this. Instead, she helped him tidy up the trash and then left the house with it.

She needed to go back to her dorm to copy and paste the 'script' from the hard drive in her hand and transfer it to her own computer.

If she were to write it herself, she wouldn't have the ability; it would probably turn out to be a mess.

But if you just copy everything over there, it would look too fake, like you've falsified the accounts.

So she decided to take it slow, copying and pasting bit by bit, "creating" the script right under the noses of the members.

I can also take this time to seriously learn screenwriting knowledge, so I won't be completely clueless when asked questions later.

Lin Xiuyuan was left sitting on the sofa, taking out his phone to check messages and incoming calls.

Although only one night has passed, there's already quite a lot of information.

It was mostly in a group chat, where Park Jiyeon and Jessica Jung were discussing startup investments. The two chatted back and forth until the early hours of the morning.

As Lin Xiuyuan scrolled through the chat history, his fingers rubbing his chin, he suddenly remembered a new industry project in Seoul in 2025 that he had seen while browsing short videos a few days ago. It seemed much more reliable than opening a barbecue restaurant.

However, he didn't plan to bring it up now; it would be better to discuss it in person when Park Jiyeon returned to Seoul.

In addition, there were text messages from Lin Xiaolu.

This time she wasn't in a hurry, and her tone was much calmer. She simply asked him when he would be free.

Lin Xiuyuan thought for a moment, originally intending to reply "tomorrow".

But in the end, I deleted the text and retyped: 【The video is here, see you at the bar at 9 PM.】

Finally, he put the phone back on the table and turned back to 2025.

……

……

2025 years.

It was midday, a cloudy and rainy day.

Lin Xiuyuan sat in the driver's seat, glanced at the sky outside the window, and felt that something was wrong.

It was sunny and bright in the morning, but a few hours later it turned into a torrential downpour.

"This awful weather..." he muttered under his breath. The light turned green, and he lifted his right foot from the brake and lightly pressed the accelerator, driving straight to the restaurant where he had arranged to meet Lin Dajun the night before.

By the time he arrived near the restaurant, the rain was pouring down harder and harder. There were hardly any pedestrians on the road, only passing cars splashing water everywhere.

After parking the car, Lin Xiuyuan glanced at the empty interior; there wasn't even a bag, let alone an umbrella.

So he had no choice but to get out of the car and run quickly into the restaurant next door.

Even in just a moment, his shoulders and hair were soaked.

So when he entered the restaurant's private room and saw Lin Dajun, the other party immediately laughed, "What's wrong? Didn't you drive here? Did you get soaked?"

While teasing him, she didn't forget to pull out a few tissues and hand them to Lin Xiuyuan so he could wipe the water stains.

"There's no umbrella on the bus. Even just a few steps can leave me soaked to the bone," Lin Xiuyuan complained helplessly as he took a tissue to wipe his hair and shoulders.

"Call me and I'll come pick you up."

Lin Dajun was still smiling, but he didn't personally help him wipe it. He just casually reminded him, "Your side isn't dry yet."

"Forget it, the moment you came out to pick me up, videos of you were all over the place would be circulating within minutes."

After a quick wipe, Lin Xiuyuan looked at the other person and asked, "Why did you choose this place? It's a bit far. Is there anything good to eat here?"

"This is a Sichuan restaurant, didn't you notice?"

Yoona smiled and raised her chin, gesturing for him to look at the menu.

Lin Xiuyuan, who had just realized what was happening, looked down and saw that the menu was indeed printed with familiar Chinese characters: boiled beef, spicy blood curd, spicy chicken... The list of dishes made him feel nostalgic.

Having not eaten Sichuan cuisine for a while, Lin Xiuyuan asked foolishly, "Is it authentic?"

Then Yoona chuckled and said, "You're asking me? I don't really know either, but the taste is not bad. Although it's not as good as what I ate when I was working in Chengdu, it's still pretty good."

"Okay, let's order first."

Having received a reply, Lin Xiuyuan picked up the menu.

Yoona gave the choice to Lin Xiuyuan, saying, "You order, I only want one serving of boiled beef."

Lin Xiuyuan raised an eyebrow, nodded, and ordered a few dishes he wanted to eat. He then ordered a pitcher of plum juice before closing the menu.

As the waiter came in and went out, the two were finally able to talk about the purpose of their dinner date.

Yoona, who spoke first, looked to the side and said, "Xiuyuan, you asked me last night if I had any regrets, right?"

"Ah."

This question was raised by Lin Xiuyuan suddenly after he heard about the 'fee'.

After that, Yoona didn't answer. She was silent for a moment, then ended the call by saying it was getting late and she would meet up for dinner the next day to talk. And that's how it is now.

"I don't know why you asked that, but I have quite a few regrets, but I don't want to tell you."

Compared to the time Yoona has spent with her friends, the two have known each other for a very short time, almost a fleeting moment.

Lin Yoona had never even talked to them about these things, so how could she possibly tell Lin Xiuyuan?

The fact that the two became so familiar in such a short time surprised even Yoona herself.

So after quickly resolving that issue, she changed the subject, "But I am somewhat interested in that 'acting coaching' you mentioned. After recording that video for you last time, I thought about it and actually gained some insights."

"Reviewing the old helps one understand the new," Lin Xiuyuan said.

“Yes, that’s it.” Lim Yoona said with a smile.

Then she looked at him and said, "So, I thought about the offline guidance you mentioned last night and it's acceptable. It'll also be a way for me to clear my head."

However, she wasn't entirely without options.

"However, the prerequisite is that you introduce that girl to me first."

"The one who looks like Jessica."

Lin Xiuyuan said softly as he played with the bowls and chopsticks.

This time, Yoona didn't hide anything and directly expressed her thoughts, "Well, after meeting him that night, I had a feeling of traveling through time, so I want to meet him."

She got straight to the point; she didn't want to waste any more time arguing with Lin Xiuyuan.

She thought about it last night and realized she'd been getting too close to the guy lately and needed to keep some distance.

Although that figure did stir up some emotions within her, it wasn't something she absolutely had to see. The feeling was bothersome, but it would pass after a while.

Upon noticing the change in Lin Yoona's tone, Lin Xiuyuan unusually laughed.

Hey, he was a little hesitant at first, after all, the woman in front of him had no problems in her career and life, and it was all very fulfilling. There was no point in trying to recruit her into the church.

She actually said that.

Well, that won't do.

Lin Xiuyuan's temper flared up suddenly.

"Sure, let's meet your student together while we're at it."

Since you're living a happy life, I'll just cause you some trouble.

I originally just wanted to come and get the videos, but now it's great, I can get a live, in-person tutorial. I bet Lin Xiaolu will be very happy.

……

……

2013 years.

evening.

After the commercial performance ended, Lin Xiaolu sat in the van on her way back to the dormitory, looking down at the reply sent by Lin Xiuyuan.

Suddenly, a familiar figure approached from the side; it was Sunny.

"Yoona, can I come with you?"

As the leader of the gossip community, Sunny felt a little embarrassed that she couldn't get any gossip about the members around her.

"I need your help this time, Unnie, please don't make things worse."

Lim Yoona smiled wryly, turned off her phone screen, pouted, and didn't dare to agree.

Just like when she passed Kim Eun-sook's initial audition, she didn't tell the other members. She only told Lim Soo-won, and then Jessica Jung and Sulli found out.

Even the company only knew about the tentative result and had no idea about Kim Eun-sook's words.

Some things are best left unsaid.

Yoona understands the principle that things are accomplished in secrecy.

After returning to her dorm, she quickly took a shower, changed into casual clothes, waved goodbye to Kim Tae-yeon and the others, and headed straight for the bar.

Although there was still some time before the agreed-upon 9 o'clock, she was already getting impatient.

When she arrived at the bar around 8 o'clock, she found that the bar lights were already on, so she turned and went into the residential area.

I turned off the engine, got out of the car, and quickly arrived at the entrance of the tavern.

Just before knocking on the door, she suddenly looked up at the sign above her head.

[Relief from Worries]

Can it really relieve my worries?
　We've reached 10,000 votes! Thank you all for your support, godfathers! Hooray!
　　So, I'll also cause some trouble for Yoona.

　　There will be more updates later, let me write them slowly.
