Peninsula: It’s just a dream, are you serious?

Chapter 178 Unnie, do you regret it?

Yoona pursed her lips, and her slightly clenched hand slowly loosened its grip the next second.

She looked up and met Kim Tae-yeon's gaze calmly, a smile playing on her lips.

"Before I answer your question, why don't you answer me first, unnie, why are you so concerned about Jessica unnie's affairs?"

Kim Tae-yeon blinked in confusion: "Isn't this normal? I'm the leader, isn't it my duty to care about the group members?"

Yoona met her gaze and suddenly chuckled softly, "Unnie is so concerned about Jessica Unnie, it can't be for this reason, right?"

After speaking, she clenched her hands tightly on her lap, and her breathing became more rapid involuntarily.

Kim Tae-yeon was somewhat confused: "Yoona, what do you mean by that?"

Yoona calmly said, "Isn't it because of what happened on September 30th that you're so worried about Jessica unnie?"

A calm sentence, yet it resounded in Kim Tae-yeon's ears like a thunderclap.

Her pupils suddenly contracted, and she stared wide-eyed at Lin Yoona in front of her, her breath catching in her throat.

After a long pause, Kim Tae-yeon finally opened her mouth: "Yoona...you."

His mind went blank, and he couldn't utter a single word for a long time.

Seeing this, Yoona, who was opposite her, suddenly loosened her tightly clenched hands and calmed down.

This unnie, just like her, has indeed been reborn.

She suddenly smiled and said, "Are you surprised, unnie? Actually, when I found out a few days ago that unnie might be just like me, I was just as surprised as you were."

Kim Tae-yeon was still reeling from what Im Yoona had just said, and looked at her younger sister with rapid breathing: "Yoona, you..."

Because she had made assumptions beforehand and was mentally prepared, Yoona's expression became increasingly calm after confirming the news.

"That's right, I was reborn too, unnie."

Kim Tae-yeon didn't reply, as if she was still accepting this sudden and unbelievable fact.

Lim Yoona didn't say anything more, giving the unnie in front of her time to process the matter.

After a moment, Kim Tae-yeon's breathing became steady, and she looked at Im Yoon-ah with a complicated expression.

Having already experienced rebirth, she was highly accepting of bizarre events.

The reason she was stunned for so long was simply because she wasn't prepared at all.

Taking a deep breath, Kim Tae-yeon gathered her thoughts: "Yoona, when were you?"

She knew that Yoona couldn't have been reborn at the same time as her.

If that's the case, then she wouldn't just stand by and watch Xiaoyan become my boyfriend.

By the way, Xiaoyan
Kim Tae-yeon's heart tightened again.

Yoona was also reborn, so what about her and Xiaoyan's story?
When did you realize you had been reborn?

Yoona then naturally picked up the conversation: "Just a few days ago during the meteor shower, I thought I was dreaming, but then I realized it wasn't."

"A meteor shower?!"

A hint of surprise flashed across Kim Tae-yeon's face. So it was because of the meteor shower a few days ago.

But upon closer reflection, it seemed somewhat reasonable; wasn't she herself reborn because of that meteor shower?

Seeing this, Lim Yoona guessed what was going on: "Unnie, is it also because of the meteor shower?"

Kim Taeyeon nodded.

"It was that meteor shower on the night of Unnie's concert 25 years ago, right?"

"Yeah, I woke up from a nap and found myself in my dorm bed."

"That's it."

A look of realization flashed across Lim Yoona's face. She lowered her eyes and remained silent for a moment before suddenly speaking, "Then unnie was reborn earlier than me. I only woke up a few days ago as if in a dream."

Upon hearing this, Kim Tae-yeon pursed her lips but did not reply.

The room fell silent for a moment, the quiet atmosphere tinged with a sense of awkwardness.

Normally, if two close people are reborn from the future into the present, their bond would be strengthened by an additional layer. In some ways, their relationship might even surpass that of family.

After the initial surprise, they gradually warmed up and started chatting with great delight.

But now, it's as if something is blocking the two of them.

Yoona stared blankly ahead for a moment, then suddenly asked, "What's going on between Unnie and Chen Yan?"

Beside her, Kim Tae-yeon's hands, which were resting on her lap, and her heart tightened simultaneously.

As expected, they asked that question.

She pursed her lips, unsure of how to begin.

The room fell silent again, with only Yoona's increasingly rapid breathing becoming clearer.

After a long pause, Kim Tae-yeon said in a low voice, "Yoona, I like romance novels."

The room fell silent again. A few seconds later, Yoona's unusually calm voice rang out: "When did you start liking him, unnie?"

"It was a long time ago, back in 18."

Kim Tae-yeon sighed softly, staring blankly ahead, as if she were looking at her 18-year-old self.

"It's just that I was too hesitant back then, thinking that this relationship wouldn't have a good outcome, so I didn't dare to admit my feelings for Xiaoyan and didn't dare to accept him."

Yoona suddenly turned her head, her eyes already slightly red: "Then why has unnie never told me this?"

Kim Tae-yeon turned to look at her, a complex look flashing in her eyes: "If I had told you, would you still have been so quick to get together with Xiao Yan back then?"

At that time, she not only kept it a secret from Yoona herself, but also asked Chen Yan not to tell Yoona about their past.

Upon hearing this, Lim Yoona lowered her eyes slightly and fell silent again. After a long while, she said, "Then, unnie, do you regret it? Do you regret not being with Chen Yan back then?"

His voice trembled slightly.

"Yes, I regret it, because I later realized that I liked Xiaoyan even more than I had imagined."

The complex look in her eyes gradually disappeared, and Kim Tae-yeon's voice was low but firm: "So after being reborn, I took the initiative to pursue Xiao Yan."

"Even though Unnie clearly knows Chen Yan is my boyfriend, and clearly knows that I also like Chen Yan, right?"

Yoona's voice was clearly choked with sobs, and tears had already begun to stream down her cheeks, falling one by one to the ground.

Kim Tae-yeon's hands trembled slightly as she turned to look at her beloved younger sister. Her heart ached, but she calmly said:
"Yoona, we've been reborn. Rebirth means that everything is starting over."

Im Yoona suddenly raised her head, her eyes filled with tears as she looked at Kim Tae-yeon.

Kim Tae-yeon met his gaze, her expression unreadable, though her eyes had reddened without her noticing.

She felt that she couldn't back down now, because if she did, she might not be able to hold on any longer.

Her breathing remained rapid, her chest heaving, as Yoona tried her best to suppress the emotions churning within her.

Although her limited rationality made her believe that Kim Tae-yeon was right, being reborn meant starting all over again.

But the emotions that occupied her mind more were something she couldn't accept.

After a while, Lim Yoona gradually calmed down and only asked one question:
"Unnie, do you regret it now?"

Kim Tae-yeon knew that she was asking whether she regretted pursuing Chen Yan now that she knew Chen Yan had also been reborn.

To this, her answer remained the same: "Yoona, I like romance novels, I really like them."

Lim Yoona turned her head and remained silent for a moment before standing up.

"boom"

The door slammed shut.

Kim Tae-yeon, who was on the sofa, suddenly seemed to have all her strength drained away and collapsed onto the sofa.

She stared blankly at the ceiling for a long time before letting out a trembling sigh.

This breath, however, was like opening the floodgates of a dam.

Tears could no longer be held back, overflowing from her eyes and streaming down her cheeks.

Does she really have no regrets at all?
