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

Chapter 184: Didn't eat much, but suffered a lot of anger.
Lin Yoona looked at Chen Yan across from her with an extremely bright smile on her face.

"Chen Yan, has no one ever told you that when you're having dinner with one woman, you shouldn't keep mentioning another woman?"

Chen Yan blinked; he naturally understood this principle.

However, this principle applies to girlfriends or ambiguous relationships, but Yoona is neither.

But glancing at the water glass that had just collided with the table with a loud thud and was now still in the girl's hand, he suddenly felt a little afraid that it would be crushed in the next second.

Chen Yan quickly put on a smile: "Hehe, enough talk, let's eat."

After saying that, he buried his head and silently ate his meal, but he couldn't help but feel uneasy.

What's wrong with Yoona today? She seems a bit strange.

She used to really want to hear about my gossip with Kim Tae-yeon's older sister, and she even made a point of asking me out for coffee late at night because of that.

Why is she unwilling to listen now that I've taken the initiative to talk about it?
Chen Yan's mind raced, and suddenly a brilliant idea struck him.

Could it be that Yoona was also in a relationship and then broke up with her just these past few days?

That's why she doesn't want to hear about her and Kim Tae-yeon's older sister.

Lin Yuna: ???

For someone who has just broken up, hearing about other couples' sweet moments is like stabbing themselves in the heart.

Thinking he had guessed the truth, Chen Yan secretly glanced at Lin Yoona.

I really can't talk about myself and Taeyeon anymore.

Across from her, Lin Yoona had no idea what kind of "truth" Chen Yan had guessed. She looked at Chen Yan, who was honestly eating with his head down, and couldn't help but pout and glare at him secretly.

This man, when we were together before, wasn't he so sweet-talking and had such high emotional intelligence?

How come now, after saying just a few words, he makes people so angry they want to sew his mouth shut?

She pouted in anger again, looked at Chen Yan, and picked up a slice of boiled pork with her chopsticks and put it in her mouth.

"cough cough"

Chen Yan looked up when he heard the coughing and saw Lin Yoona covering her mouth and coughing incessantly, her face flushed.

He glanced at the few remaining bits of chili oil in her bowl and knew that Lin Yoona must have choked on the spiciness.

He quickly reached out and grabbed a tissue, then took the other person's empty water glass, refilled it, and pushed it back to them.

"Eat slowly, and drink some water after you stop coughing."

After feeling her throat was no longer choking, Lin Yoona picked up her water glass, took a sip, and then used the tissue Chen Yan had given her to wipe her mouth.

Looking up, she met Chen Yan's smiling gaze. Lin Yoona, with a slight blush on her face, pursed her lips and said, "Don't laugh."

Chen Yan was stunned.

He didn't say anything just now; the smile on his face was just a habitual one.

And you're forbidding me to laugh right away, with a hint of coquettishness in your tone and expression. What's going on here?

How come I didn't know our relationship had become this close?

He felt that there was something strange about Yoona tonight that he couldn't quite put his finger on.

Across from her, Lin Yoona didn't notice the strange look in Chen Yan's expression. Instead, she stared at the water glass beside her, looking somewhat dazed.

She suddenly remembered the time in her past life when she and Chen Yan had a date and dinner at home.

Back then, she accidentally choked on a spicy dish, and Chen Yan handed her a tissue, just like he does now, and poured water and pushed it to her side.

The difference was that back then, Chen Yan looked at her with eyes full of doting and love, and when he saw her face turn red from being choked, he would smile and praise her for being cute.

Meanwhile, Chen Yan, who was opposite him, had acted entirely out of gentlemanly manners, and there was no extra emotion in his eyes when he looked at him.

Thinking of this, Lin Yoona's mood couldn't help but sink a little. She looked up at Chen Yan opposite her, a complicated look flashing in her eyes.

Chen Yan is still the same Chen Yan, only the way he looked at her back then is now being looked at Taeyeon unnie.

Lim Yoona had no doubt about the man's feelings for Kim Tae-yeon.

She had heard Chen Yan mention Kim Tae-yeon earlier.

He knew Taeyeon unnie's preferences, and his tone was full of doting affection for her.

Yoona could clearly sense all of these things.

but
But it's about understanding each other's preferences, the doting tone, and the loving look in one's eyes when looking at the other person.

There's also Chen Yan.

They all originally belonged to her.
Her emotions surged like waves, and Yoona gripped the water glass tightly with her right hand, as if she wanted to crush it.

Those hands, with their distinct knuckles, appeared sickly white under the lights of the private room.

Across from him, Chen Yan saw Lin Yoona sitting there with her eyes slightly lowered, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, remaining motionless for a long time.

"What's wrong, Yoona? Did you eat something spicy and are your stomach upset?"

Yoona snapped out of her daze and forced a smile: "It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of something."

As she spoke, she glanced at Chen Yan again, pursed her lips, thought for a moment, and then said:

"Chen Yan, you might not believe it, but when I saw you, I felt like we had known each other for a long time."

Chen Yan blinked, then suddenly smiled and said, "I believe you."

This time, it was Yoona on the other side who was stunned; "You believe it?"

She just said that to vent her emotions.

She couldn't tell Chen Yan the truth, so she could only give an ambiguous answer, but she didn't expect Chen Yan to give a positive answer.

In that instant, an utterly absurd thought flashed through her mind.

Could it be that Chen Yan is one of them?
But the next second, Yoona immediately dismissed this absurd thought.

Chen Yan couldn't possibly be a reincarnation like her and Taeyeon unnie, otherwise how could he be with Taeyeon unnie?

Moreover, she had met Chen Yan many times, and Chen Yan looked exactly like a college student who had just entered society, with nothing out of the ordinary.

Chen Yan had no idea what absurd idea Lin Yoona was having, so he smiled and said:
"There's a Chinese idiom called 'love at first sight,' which perfectly describes how you feel. It seems we'll become great friends in the future."

Lin Yoona's expression froze, and the last glimmer of hope in her heart completely dissipated.

She had no desire to laugh anymore, and after simply replying with a faint "Mm," she changed the subject, saying, "Let's eat, or the food will get cold."

Seeing that Lin Yoona suddenly seemed a little down, Chen Yan was puzzled, but he didn't ask any questions. He nodded and continued eating.

Across from her, Yoona lowered her head slightly and ate her meal in small bites.

She glanced at Chen Yan, couldn't help but bite her lip, and sighed deeply in her heart.

What I'm saying is true; I've really known you for a long time.

You were my boyfriend back then.

Besides, who wants to be your best friend?!
The gloom in my heart was instantly dispelled by anger.

Lim Yoona pouted.

I didn't eat much, but I was quite upset.

Asi!
