Chapter 25

Perhaps it was because Park Ji-yeon was too excited, or perhaps Lee Seung-lin subconsciously raised his head, in any case, he didn't kiss her lips, only her chin!

Wow, this is an unexpected turn of events! The maknae's counterattack? A lolita's strong move on an uncle?

Seeing the glowing eyes of the other three, Lee Seung-lin felt that the matter with Ji-yeon should be put aside for now, "Are you three so idle?"

When Lee Seung-lin was serious, most people couldn't handle his gaze, so...

"Ah, I was in such a hurry coming down that I forgot the food in the pot!" One person ran off...

"Dear, we should leave now, or there will be too many people at Namsan Tower later!" "You're absolutely right!" So only Lee Seung-lin and Park Ji-yeon were left.

Park Ji-yeon seemed to have used up all the courage she had accumulated over four years, her head lowered, her face red, fidgeting with her fingers...

How to describe Lee Seung-lin? In fact, he was quite adaptable. Perhaps it was because he lacked these things in his previous life, so he easily accepted the family's affection and friends' friendship, even though these existed before he possessed this body.

What about love? He was originally not very brave to touch the area of love. Even though he liked Han Seung-yeon a little and knew she liked him, he just let it be, not actively pursuing anything.

Moreover, Park Ji-yeon? She liked the old Lee Seung-lin, not himself, but it could also be considered himself since he had those memories. It was all very complicated!

Actually, after coming to this world, Lee Seung-lin had always had some issues. He yearned to accept everything about this body, but at the same time, he rejected it. These things were too beautiful, and he was afraid that one day he would wake up from this dream, and everything would disappear. He was afraid he couldn't bear the pain.

This issue he himself hadn't even noticed, just subconsciously protecting himself. So he was happy to move out and live alone, thinking his older mental age made him more suitable for living alone.

He liked that his two good friends were busy with their careers and saw him less, thinking it was a sign of maturity!

He didn't like going to crowded places anymore, preferring to stay at home and play games, thinking it was a continuation of his personality after having a girlfriend in his previous life!

In fact, these were all signs of his social anxiety, but he didn't realize it. It wasn't until he met a woman who discovered his problem and, under her guidance, he unraveled his heart and truly integrated into his current life! (Spoiler: There's no romantic relationship between them; she's a middle-aged woman, an author. Can you guess who she is?)

Finally, it was Park Ji-yeon who broke the silence, "OPPA, why do you have so much beard? It's so uncomfortable!"

Haha, Lee Seung-lin, who didn't know what to do, breathed a sigh of relief. After all, she was still a little girl, still paying attention to such things at this moment. Probably to save face in front of the sisters? Thinking this, he felt relieved, but why did he feel a faint sense of loss?

"Yeah, OPPA is getting old, so naturally, I have more beard. I'm not the OPPA you like anymore; I'm a middle-aged man with a child!" Lee Seung-lin deliberately emphasized the word "child."

He thought that young girls liked romantic and beautiful love, not living with an uncle. Sure enough, the little girl didn't bring it up again, "I'm doomed, I'm heartbroken, rejected by OPPA. So when we go to the concert later, OPPA has to buy me lots of delicious food to make up for it!"

After all, she was still the little foodie he knew, "Haha, no problem!" But he wasn't sure if it was an illusion, or if it was still the little girl, but in Lee Seung-lin's eyes, she seemed more beautiful. He found it hard to see her as a little girl anymore, more like a woman?

Could Park Ji-yeon have really thought it through so quickly and given up? Of course not! It turned out she had been reading a novel about dating an older man. The male protagonist always saw the female protagonist as a sister, and in the end, the female protagonist broke the ice with a sudden confession and a stolen kiss, and they eventually got together.

So when she heard Lee Seung-lin say she was just a sister, she subconsciously used the method from the book. Although the stolen kiss failed, OPPA's gaze changed. It wasn't the indulgent and helpless look he gave a little sister; it had a different, more romantic look.

Women have a sixth sense about these things...

As expected, the next step was a rejection, the first plan completed!

The next step was the second plan. With the balance of their relationship broken and his guilt, she would quickly re-integrate into his life and establish a new balance—a romantic relationship!

Park Ji-yeon, Park Ji-yeon, you are truly a genius. Who says you only know how to eat? Hoho, the little dinosaur is celebrating inside...

Outside the parking lot of the Dream Concert, Choi Ji-jung was very upset. Why? Because his cousin was a member of Girls' Generation, so he was holding a Girls' Generation fan sign, but why were people around him looking at him with mocking and gloating expressions?

Taking a deep breath, I am a successful person, a legitimate businessman, not a thug! Otherwise, he was afraid he couldn't control himself and would lash out...

Finally, after a long wait, the familiar Ferrari appeared, and he saw Seung-lin and a little girl together, "Seung-lin-ssi! Little Dinosaur?"

It must be said that quiet people are observant. Although they hadn't seen each other for years, Hong Chan-min had seen Park Ji-yeon several times and didn't recognize her, but Choi Ji-jung recognized her at first glance. Of course, Park Ji-yeon only remembered Lee Seung-lin...

"Ji-yeon, this is your cousin, Choi Ji-jung! Do you remember?"

"Hello, Ji-jung-ssi!" Park Ji-yeon, holding a pile of snacks, greeted with a mouth full of food...

"Ji-jung, what are you holding?" "It's a fan sign!" Sigh, why was it still so tiring to talk to him after all these years...

Anyway, this thing looked embarrassing, so he decided to stay away from him. He didn't know that because of this thought, his good friend suffered a lot...

After entering the venue, Choi Ji-jung was quickly pulled over by the Girls' Generation fan club, SONE, and Lee Seung-lin and Park Ji-yeon sneaked into a group of audience members with no fan signs, probably neutral fans.

So when Choi Ji-jung sat down and looked for the two of them, where could he find them? "Prioritizing love over friendship!" He finally managed to say four words!

The performance hadn't started yet, and the fans of various groups were already competing with their chants.

But, Ji-yeon, who are you supporting? Why are you shouting for every group? Shout if you want, but why are you jumping and shouting while hugging me? Are you that excited?

Because the two of them were so close, Park Ji-yeon's movements inevitably led to some physical contact. Lee Seung-lin thought to himself, the little girl still doesn't understand, not even realizing she was taking advantage of him, but the little girl had some substance... Men, Lee Seung-lin felt a bit secretly pleased...

He didn't know that the little girl had been secretly watching him. Seeing that Lee Seung-lin didn't object, the little dinosaur acted, Hoho, the first step of the second plan, natural and more-than-friendship physical contact, succeeded!

Indeed, Park Ji-yeon, you are a genius!
