Chapter 44: Playing the Rogue

After a night had passed, Li Yunzai did not pay much attention to the number of views on his video. He just slept deeply for the entire day, from 11:30 PM last night until 1:30 PM the next day.

This sleep was long, deep, and comfortable. Li Yunzai, who usually woke up early, broke his routine and slept in, perhaps giving himself one last day off, as he had a premonition that from tomorrow on, he would have few chances to sleep in.

At 1:00 PM,朴素妍 came to Li Yunzai's residence, took out the key, and walked straight in. Last night, she naturally watched the video Li Yunzai had uploaded, feeling both happy for him and angry, secretly annoyed that Li Yunzai's vocal cords had clearly recovered, yet he still communicated with her using notes.

She got up early in the morning and rushed straight to the Left Bank Café where Li Yunzai worked, but the café was closed, so she went directly to Li Yunzai's residence.

"This guy is really at home!" Seeing Li Yunzai's shoes at the entrance,朴素妍 gritted her teeth and huffed a few times.

The room was warm and quiet, with no sound at all.朴素妍 frowned slightly, wondering if he was not at home.

Taking off her coat,朴素妍, wearing a wool sweater, revealed a figure that was already quite attractive, with a slightly protruding chest making her look more mature.

She went to the bedroom door, opened it a crack, and a warmer temperature spilled out. The bedroom was dim, with the curtains drawn, almost pitch black, but her intuition told her that Li Yunzai was sleeping in bed.

"This guy... It's already this late, and he's still sleeping!"朴素妍 turned on the light and saw that Li Yunzai was indeed sleeping soundly in bed. She ran over in three quick steps and jumped onto the bed.

"Get up! The sun is shining on your butt!"朴素妍 shouted loudly, jumping on the bed as if it were a trampoline.

The sudden "earthquake" woke Li Yunzai up, and he sat up instantly. But seeing朴素妍 standing on his bed, he fell back onto the pillow.

"Li Yunzai... You lied to me... Why did you keep using notes to communicate with me when you could speak? You've made me so angry..."朴素妍 knelt down and shouted loudly in Li Yunzai's ear.

A warm breath and a powerful sound wave hit Li Yunzai's eardrums. He rolled over, pressed朴素妍 under him, and buried his head to continue sleeping.

"Hey, Li Yunzai... You're dead meat..."朴素妍 struggled a few times but could not escape from under Li Yunzai. Soon, she was exhausted.

"Li Yunzai... You can speak now, why didn't you tell me! You're such a bad guy... a big bad guy..." As she spoke,朴素妍's voice became tearful, and her small hands, clenched into fists, continuously hit Li Yunzai's back, whether out of joy or anger at Li Yunzai.

Hearing朴素妍's tearful voice, Li Yunzai could no longer sleep. He wiped his eyes a few times, then raised his head and looked down at朴素妍, who was under him. He saw that there were indeed two tear marks on her cheeks, her big eyes red and wet.

Li Yunzai's heart warmed, feeling a bit moved. He gently brushed the disheveled hair from朴素妍's forehead, revealing a flawless, delicate face. Her red, wet eyes made him feel a surge of tenderness.

"You bad guy... Why didn't you tell me your vocal cords were better? Do you know how worried I was about you!"朴素妍's small fists continuously landed on Li Yunzai's chest.

Li Yunzai ignored朴素妍's fists and instead reached out to wipe away the tear marks from her eyes, smiling slightly and saying in a slightly hoarse voice, "Suyan, you're really beautiful!"

"Ha...朴素妍 burst into laughter, then said, "Hmph, don't think you can get away with just a few nice words. There's no such easy thing. You lied to me for half a year, fooled me for half a year, and made me worry for four years... Tell me, how are you going to make it up to me..."

But Li Yunzai changed the subject, asking朴素妍, "Sister, how old are you this year?"

"You bad guy... You actually forgot how old I am..."朴素妍 said with a look of indignation.

"Sister... You're 22 years old..." Li Yunzai said in a deep, gentle voice, gently touching朴素妍's cheek, making her feel uncomfortable and struggle a bit.

Li Yunzai did not stop, his fingers sliding from her cheek to her smooth forehead, then slowly down to her nose.朴素妍's eyes, under Li Yunzai's intense gaze, could not meet his, feeling a bit flustered.

His fingers slowly slid down to朴素妍's lips, which were lightly coated with a pale pink lip gloss.

"Sister... Do you remember what I sent you on October 5th, two years ago?"

朴素妍's eyes darted around, and she clearly remembered October 5th, two years ago. It was her birthday, and as usual, she went to S.M. for training. But when she walked to the back door of S.M., she saw many trainees gathered there.

朴素妍 also went over out of curiosity and saw a delivery man standing at the door. The delivery man held a large bouquet of roses, about 100 in number, and a gift box under his arm, and a photo in his other hand.

"Wow... So beautiful! I wonder who it's for... Who's so bold, chasing girls to the company... That's really daring!" a male trainee muttered.

"So romantic... Such a big bouquet of roses! I wonder who's so lucky..." the female trainees exclaimed.

At that moment, the delivery man seemed to see something, checked the photo, and walked straight toward the front. The girls at the front felt a bit nervous, each wondering if it was for them and whether they should accept it, wanting it but also fearing company reprimands.

The delivery man passed the first and second girls and stopped in front of朴素妍, handing her the photo and saying, "Is the girl in the photo you?"

朴素妍 was stunned, took the photo in front of everyone, and saw that it was indeed her. She nodded subconsciously.

"It's you then! This is your bouquet of roses, please take it, and this gift box too!" The delivery man handed the large bouquet of roses to朴素妍 amidst the commotion of the crowd, and then handed her the gift box and had her sign the delivery slip.

朴素妍 came to her senses, feeling the slightly envious and somewhat gloating looks from the crowd, and asked the delivery man anxiously, "Are you sure this is for me? Who sent it?"

The delivery man shook his head and said, "Sorry, I only deliver, I don't know who sent it... The person in the photo is you, so the roses and the gift box are for you!" He then squeezed through the crowd, got on his motorcycle, and left.

Under the gaze of many,朴素妍 quickly walked into the underground practice room, put the roses on the ground, and hurriedly opened the gift box. Inside was a beautifully packaged box, with the logo of two back-to-back C's on the front. The grown-up朴素妍 recognized the brand that all women loved—Chanel.

When she opened the box, there was a bottle of perfume and a postcard. On the postcard was a simple line: "Wishing Suyan a happy birthday, adult gifts: roses and perfume. From Li Yunzai."

...

In a flash,朴素妍 remembered. With her lips pressed by Li Yunzai, she could only nod her head in acknowledgment.

"Sister... Did you like those two gifts?" Li Yunzai asked softly, and朴素妍 nodded.

"Today, I'll give you the third adult gift!" Li Yunzai said, moving his fingers away.

"What are you going to do?"朴素妍's lips were free again, and she asked immediately, her chest rising and falling, looking at Li Yunzai's sincere face, feeling a bit flustered.

Boom... In the next moment,朴素妍 felt her mind go blank. The unprecedented soft and tender touch on her lips made her brain short-circuit. Her eyes widened, and her hands tightly gripped the bedsheet. At that moment,朴素妍 felt her whole body go limp, with no strength left.

Twenty-two years, her first kiss, which she had preserved for twenty-two years, was gone.

Soft, tender, and sweet sensations from her lips transmitted to her brain, and Li Yunzai could not help but want to explore with his tongue, but he ultimately restrained himself.

A few seconds felt like several centuries. When朴素妍's soul returned to her body, she felt a lightness, and Li Yunzai had already climbed off her.

"That's better... Finally, it's quiet, and my ears are clear!" Li Yunzai chuckled, jumped off the bed, and ran into the bathroom.

朴素妍 touched her lips, heard Li Yunzai's words, and immediately turned into a tigress, jumping off the bed and shouting loudly, "Li Yunzai... You bad guy, how dare you play the rogue with your sister!"
