Chapter Seventy-Three: Long Time No See

Good thing to come back in time!

When Lin Xiyan appeared at the kitchen door panting, he found that Kong Liu was still in the process of cutting vegetables.

"Ah Yigu, why are you in such a hurry!"

Seeing Lin Xiyan's appearance, Kong Liu knew what was going on.

"Brother, you have a criminal record!"

Lin Xiyan motioned for Kong Liu to put the knife down first, it was still a bit scary to hold it like this.

Worried about saying the wrong thing, the knife flew straight over.

Kong Liu's new home will take at least half a year to renovate it to be ready to move in.

Because Lin Xiyan didn't charge rent, one day after Kong Liu got off work early, he wanted to say that he would cook a meal and thank Lin Xiyan for cooking a meal.

Although he was a friend for a few years, Lin Xiyan didn't know Kong Liu's level, so he let him go.

The end result was that the fire extinguisher at home came in handy.

"It's all said to be an accident!" Kong Liu You didn't know it, and walked out of the kitchen all the way.

In the days that followed, in order to prevent Kong Liu from making another surprise attack, Lin Xiyan even shortened the time he spent in the company every day to deal with affairs and went home early.

Lin Xiyan's prevention of Kong Liu entering the kitchen somehow reached the ears of Yu Li and others.

For this reason, Yun'er also specially called Kong Liu and comforted her in a fake way.

Speaking of Yu Li, since the two confirmed their relationship, they have fallen into a busy schedule.

All members are either in the middle of the trip or on their way to the next trip.

This made the two people who fell in love for the first time suffer.

It is often not until the middle of the night that there is a moment of free time to talk about love.

I felt sorry for Yu Li, but it was not easy to dissuade her, so I had to let her rest early after every simple greeting.

Originally, I thought that a successful debut was already a big step towards victory, but I didn't expect such a rugged mountain road to follow.

"Shall I pick you up in the evening?" Because of Lin Xiyan's identity, Jin Yingmin had already informed Wu Xiumei, so Lin Xiyan was able to grasp Yu Li's accurate travel time.

It's just that after Wu Xiumei informed the itinerary information, she complained a few words about Kim Yingmin from the bottom of her heart.

This is good, lure the wolf into the room.

However, due to Lin Xiyan's restraint, Wu Xiumei has not reported the matter to the company for the time being.

"We'll be recording until the middle of the night today, it's too late." Yu Li's tired voice sounded from the earpiece.

"It's okay, I happen to be busy in the company today," Lin Xiyan looked at the time, it was already seven o'clock in the evening, "I'll bring you some snacks then." ”

"Isn't that going to Myeongdong again and coming back to Yeuai? Oppa, you're so tired like this. "Yu Li heard Lin Xiyan say that he was bringing snacks, and mistakenly thought that he was going back to the 'traveler' on Myeongdong Street.

"Ani, that's too inconvenient," Lin Xiyan remembered that he had asked Park Minjing to reopen a branch, and seemed to have forgotten to tell Yu Li, "I asked Minjing Nuna to open a store on Yeu Ai Island, which is very close to the company." ”

"Ahh ”

"Prabhu, isn't Ice Americana ice?" Lin Xiyan was amused by Yu Li's adjective.

"That's what I like to say." Even if Lin Xiyan was not in front of him, Yu Li still had a coquettish expression on his face.

Sika, who was on the side, heard such a greasy voice, and couldn't help rubbing his arms and changing directions in a daze.

As for the others, long before the call was connected, they put on earplugs to block the verbal attacks of the flesh.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Xiyan did not continue to be busy, but walked to the window and overlooked the bustling Ruai Island.

Under the cover of night, the whole city has a sense of vastness, and the lights of the houses in the distance are like stars in the sky.

Nearby, bright street lamps spread along the street like a galaxy into the distance, and the buildings that almost never sleep at night are like airports scattered in them.

Where are you recording today?

It seems that it was on SBS TV, Lin Xiyan thought about it carefully.

After standing by the window for long, Lin Xiyan felt a little hungry and finished his day's work.

The thing I told Yu Li on the phone was that she had something to do, but it was just a remark not to distract her.

"Minjing, let's go have dinner together?" When I walked out of the office, I saw that the lights in Park Min-kyung's office were still on, so I knocked on the door.

"Aren't you going home early today?" Park Min-kyung was a little surprised when he saw that it was Lin Xiyan.

"I'm going to pick up Yu Li later," Lin Xiyan didn't hide it from Park Minjing.

"This kind of love is quite hard, isn't it?" Lin Xiyan's close friends all know about the two of them.

Lin Xiyan shrugged and said that it was OK.

In fact, he knew very well in his heart that choosing Yu Li was choosing such a way of love.

At least, in the next few years, both of them will have to converge a little.

Even with the energy to collapse SM, Lin Xiyan didn't think about asking Yu Li to accommodate his identity.

If that, it will inevitably affect the development of Yu Li, and even the development of the entire team, which is too unfair.

Love is never about asking for anything from the other party, and Yu used a few years to show Lin Xiyan her sincerity.

Lin Xiyan is now giving back to Yu Li in his own way.

After a brief dinner, he told Park Min-kyung not to work overtime too late, and walked towards the new store alone.

The new store and the company are separated by two roads, not far away.

To say that this banknote is easy to use, after Park Minjing found a suitable store, he spent some extra money, so that the decoration unit took a very short time to complete the decoration of the new store.

Instead of copying the 'Traveler' design, the new store adopts a retro style.

The antique design, comfortable warm yellow lighting, seems to be more suitable for lovers.

Order two cups of coffee, listen to laid-back music, and have a rare good time.

Lin Xiyan also deliberately changed the name of the new store, 'Secret Forest'.

Unlike the Myeongdong store and the Goyang store, the 'Secret Forest' does not have a second floor, so Lin Xiyan retreated to the second place and got himself a booth with the best view as an exclusive location.

In the evening, there are not many customers in the store.

Most of the people in this neighborhood are office workers, and after work, they only go to places like Itaewon and Hongdae to have fun.

Lin Xiyan had a cup of coffee in front of him, supporting his head with one hand, and slowly tapping on the table with the music with the other.

His gaze wandered, as if he had been immersed in another void.

Suddenly, two girls appeared on the side of the road, and Lin Xiyan's eyes shrank and he recognized one of them.

I took out my phone and was about to make a call, but I put it down again, and I played with it and tapped the glass with my fingers.

Tuk-tuk...

The rhythmic sound caught the attention of one of them, and they looked around for the source of the sound.

turned around and saw Lin Xiyan who was smiling at himself.

"Ah," the girl covered her mouth in surprise, also attracting the attention of her companion.

"Ernie?" The companion followed the girl's line of sight, but saw nothing behind the glass.

"Renjing, long time no see!" Just when the girl's companion was puzzled, Lin Xiyan had already walked out of the store.

The girl is Park In-jung, who died of her grandmother and missed her debut selection.

Since the phone call on the eve of the selection, Lin Xiyan has never received any news from her, and it seems that she has been greatly hit.

"Creek Rock Oppa!"

Ren Jing didn't expect to meet Lin Xiyan on the street, and when she thought of the phone call after her grandmother died of illness at that time, her tone was full of grievances for a while.

"Daihatsu!" It was also the first time for the companion to see such a little woman as Ren Jing, and her melon-eating eyes looked Lin Xiyan up and down.

The night was unknown, and when Lin Xiyan first came out, his companions were still unsure of his identity, and they knew that Renjing shouted out aggrievedly, so it was finally determined.

"Okay, don't cry, everyone on the road wants to laugh!" Lin Xiyan was inconvenient to rub their heads like before, so he could only take out a tissue from his pocket and hand it over.

Lin Xiyan's words suddenly made Renjing want to cry to want to laugh, and the expression on her face became a little strange.

"Let's go to the store, I haven't seen you for a long time." Lin Xiyan turned sideways and half-led the two of them to the booth just now.

"This is my dear, Park Ji-yeon." After the mood was soothed, Park Renjing reacted and did not introduce his companions to Lin Xiyan.

"Anihasai has, Lin Xiyan xi." Just as Lim Hee-yan wanted to introduce himself, Park Ji-yeon immediately stood up.

"I'm pretty famous?" Lin Xiyan touched his nose.

"Inside, Xiyan oppa is rare and don't you know?" Ren Jing tilted her head and asked playfully.

"Lin Xiyanxi, you can be the ideal type of many women!" Park Ji-yeon also has a somewhat familiar posture, and seeing that Renjing and Lin Xiyan have a close relationship, she is also a lot more relaxed.

"That's a real burden!" Lin Xiyan pretended to be under pressure.

"Oppa, don't be weird, I haven't drunk the coffee you brewed in a long time, it's delicious." Holding the cup, Park In-jing smelled the familiar fragrance.

Since leaving SM, Park In-jung has not been to 'Traveler' and doesn't want her friends to see her fragile appearance.

But she was almost out of touch, but everyone was even more worried, if it weren't for Sika and others occasionally talking to her on the phone, Lin Xiyan would have felt the need to call the police.

"So it's a fresh start now?" Quietly listen to Renjing talk about what happened after leaving, just like that night.

This picture fell in the eyes of Park Ji-yeon, who was on the side, but it was full of pink.

She had never seen such a Renjing, which made her eyes gradually empty, and her thoughts flew all over the sky.

"Now, if you continue to work as a trainee at MBK, you will have a chance this year or next year, right?" Renjing nodded.

"Do you want my help?" Lin Xiyan looked at Ren Jing with inquiring eyes, and the next second, his painting style changed, and he raised his arm, as if he could see his biceps, "I'm super powerful now!" ”

Flutter, Park Ji-yeon, who was concentrating on drinking coffee next to her, couldn't hold back, and while wiping the water stains at the corners of her mouth, she lowered her head and admitted her mistake.

"No need, oppa." Ren Jing also held back a smile and rejected Lin Xiyan's proposal.

Renjing's refusal was expected, and Lin Xiyan was not ashamed of being rejected, but encouraged her to continue to work hard, and he must be notified to watch the debut stage.

"Inside."

I haven't seen each other for a long time, and I forgot the time when I chatted, and by the time the two reacted, Park Ji-yeon was already yawning.

"I'm really sorry to delay your time." Lin Xiyan said apologetically.

"Kenchana, Ernie is rarely so happy, and I don't have anything else to do." Park Ji-yeon said generously.

"Next time, I have time to invite you to dinner," Lin Xiyan saw that the time was not early, so he asked the clerk to help get a taxi first.

"OPPA, let's go back and rest early!" After getting into the car, Renjing rolled down the window.

"Yes, but I still have to pick people up." Lin Xiyan nodded, and when he was about to leave, he turned back again, "Don't lose contact again!" ”

Park Injing tilted his head, his eyes were a little puzzled, and he was a little uncertain.

Lin Xiyan didn't speak, and nodded with a smile.

The silent communication between the two made Park Ji-yeon a little confused.

Seeing the taillights of the car go away, Lin Xiyan also brought coffee and some snacks, drove to the parking lot of SBS, and waited silently.
