The Uncrowned King of the Peninsula

Chapter 172 This is my lifeline

Pei Yongjun feels that the world is changing too fast.

He has only touched Lee Ji-eun's hand twice, the first time was a handshake, and the second time was now, and the way was similar to a handshake.

Just holding it in your hand.

The still damp shower curtain was suddenly pulled open, making a slight sliding sound on the track. The cool air outside rushed into the small, humid and warm space next to the bathtub, and the bright light also came in.

Bae Yong-jun lowered his head, looked into Lee Ji-eun's big eyes, felt her subconsciously clenched fingers, and took a deep breath.

She lay on her stomach beside the bathtub, her head held high, her wet hair winding like a snake over the large area of exposed fair skin on her back, the white was translucent and the black was intense.

The hot steam from the bathtub dissipated, and Lee Ji-eun was shrouded in a layer of coolness under the bright light.

Noble and elegant, like a marble goddess statue by the water, it cannot be desecrated.

Except for her right arm, which stretched out from the water.

Her wrist was slender, the back of her hand was white and tender, and her knuckles were delicate. She held his hand tightly through the smooth and soft fabric of her trousers.

The statue-like goddess is doing something blasphemous.

Such a strong contrast made Pei Yongjun's blood boil and his blood vessels beat violently, as if he could almost feel her delicate and soft fingertips.

"Ji Eun, what do you want to do?" Bae Yongjun repeated softly.

The stunned Lee Ji-eun finally came to her senses, with an anxious look on her face.

She looked at Pei Yongjun without saying a word, then suddenly loosened her hand and leaned forward, like a mermaid emerging from the foam. The bottom of her white back skin revealed the faint outline of the mound underneath.

Small and round.

She stretched out her smooth right arm, grabbed the shower curtain, and then pulled it hard, as if trying to pull it up again.

The sound of the track sliding was heard and the shower curtain was pulled up again.

But after a moment of sound, the shower curtain stopped again.

Pei Yongjun leaned over and grabbed her slender wrist, and with a little force, he made her unable to move.

The shower curtain remained motionless, and the two of them continued like this, exposed to the bedroom's view. As long as Choi Sulli walked over and took a look, she would be able to see everything clearly.

It was incredibly dangerous, like walking on a thin knife edge.

Lee Ji-eun and Bae Young-joon looked at each other, one with a normal expression and the other with a frown.

"Let go." She whispered, pulled her arms hard, and twisted her body, causing the dense foam on the water surface to rise and fall, and the round white hillock below disappeared in the foam in a flash.

Pei Yongjun respected her very much and jumped again immediately.

But now no one shook his hand, it was just a moment of impatience.

"Let go!" She slightly raised her tone, but seemed afraid of being heard outside, so her voice was very low, and there was a hint of panic in it.

Pei Yongjun didn't care at all.

Li Zhien twisted twice more, and the splashing sound became louder and louder. She finally realized that she could never let go of Pei Yongjun's hand. She finally raised her head, stared at Pei Yongjun and asked, "What are you doing?"

Pei Yongjun leaned over, looking at the faint uneasiness in Li Zhien's expression, and moved closer to her face and asked softly, "Are you scared?"

"Then why are you doing this?"

Li Zhien's expression changed. She was stunned for a moment, then loosened her clenched lower lip. Her delicate eyebrows relaxed, and she stared into Bae Yongjun's eyes. The corners of her mouth once again put on the faint smile from before. Her fingers slowly loosened their grip on the shower curtain, and her smooth arms slowly withdrew.

Pei Yongjun relaxed his strength, loosened his grip on her slender wrist, and watched her movements.

Lee Ji-eun pulled her right hand back in front of her body, glanced at Bae Yong-jun's broad and powerful palm, leaned her left elbow on the edge of the bathtub, supported her delicate chin with her wrist, and a lazy look appeared on her face.

Pei Yongjun raised his eyebrows.

"What am I afraid of?" Lee Ji-eun glanced sideways at the place in front of her face that seemed to still be emitting heat, and then her gaze moved all the way up, passing the square belt buckle and the buttons one by one, and looked at Pei Yongjun's leaning face.

"Shirley might have fallen asleep."

The steam in the bathtub slowly rose again, making her fair cheeks flushed. Her expression was lazy and hazy, as if in a dream.

"Let me tell you a little secret. Shirley is very lively when she drinks, but after drinking too much, once she falls asleep, she will sleep very soundly." She murmured softly, stretched out the small fingertips of her right hand, and tapped him again, causing his heart to beat.

"Ha~" She laughed softly, "She was very happy tonight, so she drank quite a lot. Guess..."

Li Zhien slowly tightened her five fingers.

Pei Yongjun took a deep breath slowly.

"Do you think she's asleep now?"

The bedroom outside was very quiet, and it seemed that just as she said, Choi Sulli had fallen into a deep sleep.

A faint sound of water was heard, and Lee Ji-eun and Bae Young-joon looked at each other, their slender fingers sliding slowly, like the rings at the top of the shower curtain.

Pei Yongjun exhaled slowly, feeling her, narrowed his eyes slightly, looked into her fiery and misty eyes, and whispered, "I take back what I said just now. You are very brave."

Li Zhien smiled and blinked coquettishly, her long eyelashes fluttering. She increased the strength of her hands a little, as if to acknowledge Pei Yongjun's words, "You too."

"It seems that what happened today was not a coincidence?"

Bae Yong-jun's voice was still steady, but his breathing was a little heavy. Lee Ji-eun's arm was hanging in the air, and her naked skin could feel his hot breath.

"If it's not a coincidence, what is it?" Lee Ji-eun tilted her head, as if she didn't understand what Bae Yong-jun was saying.

"You invited both of us here, and you also gave us the same bracelet that Shirley gave us. Without it, she wouldn't be so happy and excited, and she wouldn't have drunk so much, and she wouldn't have stayed tonight."

"If it's a coincidence, it's fate, isn't it?"

Pei Yongjun whispered, looking into Li Zhien's eyes, "And the other rooms on the third floor, are they really occupied?"

"Otherwise, we wouldn't have come to this room at the very end."

"Is there anyone in the other rooms?" Li Zhien seemed to be a little thirsty, and licked her lips with the tip of her delicate tongue. "Why don't you go and have a look? Maybe someone is taking a shower there."

"If you're looking for wonderful coincidences, aren't they everywhere in life?"

"Editor Pei, have you ever written a piece of news without any coincidences?"

Pei Yongjun didn't say anything, as if he was thinking about something.

IU looked at his expression, lowered her head and changed her movements. She stopped her slender fingers and rubbed her delicate and fleshy palms in circles.

"This is my lifeline, do you like it?"

Pei Yongjun jumped again.
