Chapter 294 After the older sister comes the younger sister.
Krystal Jung wasn't in a very good mood all day.

Fortunately, she didn't show anything unusual while working, and since she naturally had an icy demeanor, none of her staff noticed anything amiss.

An hour ago, she finished her last schedule and was driven back to her dormitory by her agent.

But everyone else was still on their schedules and hadn't returned yet, so the dormitory room felt a bit oppressive with only one person there.

Unable to bear the oppressive atmosphere, Krystal sat on the sofa for a while before getting up again, putting on an act, and leaving the dormitory.

As I was walking down the street, I suddenly saw someone ahead of me holding an iced Americano and walking out of a shop next door.

Turning my head, I saw the coffee shop next door, and suddenly, as if a switch had been flipped, fragments of memories surged up from the sea of my past.

The girl pursed her lips tightly.

Seeing a coffee shop really reminds me of that jerk; coffee shops truly are places of heartbreak.

Turning her gaze away, Krystal Jung continued walking forward, but after walking a distance, she suddenly stopped.

Turning to look at the coffee shop in front of me, a mix of resentment and rebellion suddenly welled up from the bottom of my heart.

So what if it's a place of heartbreak? Could it be more heartbreaking than finding out that guy is a jerk?

I'm definitely going to drink this coffee today.

With a pout, Krystal Jung took two steps forward, pushed open the door of the coffee shop, and went inside.

“Welcome~”

"I'd like an iced Americano with double sugar, please."

"Okay, please wait a moment~"

The shop assistant skillfully operated the machine to process the payment and handed the receipt along with the card to Krystal Jung.

Krystal Jung reached out and took it, then stepped aside and waited quietly.

At that moment, another employee walked over and handed a voice recorder to the person who had just taken Jung Soo-jung's order.

"Manager, I found this on the seat when I was cleaning the private room. It must have been left behind by the guest who just left."

The store manager took the recorder: "Let's put it on the counter for now. The customer might come back to get it later after they find it."

Jung Soo-jung glanced at it subconsciously at first, but when she saw the appearance of the voice recorder in the store manager's hand, her eyes widened slightly.

Why does this voice recorder look so much like the one I gave to Chen Yan?

The voice recorder she gave Chen Yan wasn't the kind commonly found on the market; it was one she had spent a long time choosing online and then specially commissioned.

The entire casing of the voice recorder is bright silver, and its shape is also slightly different from that of ordinary voice recorders, giving it a high-tech feel when paired with the bright silver color.

Most importantly, when I ordered the voice recorder, I specifically asked the shop to engrave a "k" on the power button.

It's the first letters of her English name, Krystal, which is a little something she did.

The voice recorder in front of me matches all the characteristics.

Could it really be the one she gave to Chen Yan?

"Bell~"

The sound of the shop door being pushed open rang out, followed by a familiar voice:

"Excuse me, I think I left something in the private room of the restaurant. May I go in and look for it now?"

"You left a voice recorder behind, didn't you? Check if this is yours."

"Yes, this is mine, thank you."

"You're welcome, customer."

Krystal Jung stared blankly at the man thanking the shop assistant, a thought suddenly popping into her mind:
Perhaps my relationship with this man is a cursed one.

To run into each other under such circumstances, especially in a coffee shop, what else could it be but a tragic fate?

After thanking the shop assistant, Chen Yan looked at the voice recorder in his hand and breathed a slight sigh of relief.

He remembered that in the private room, he had shown the recorder to Jessica Jung and then casually placed it on the seat next to her, forgetting about it when he left.

After driving some distance, he habitually touched his pocket and realized that the voice recorder was missing. After thinking for a moment, he immediately turned around and drove back.

Fortunately it wasn’t lost.

After putting away the recorder and thanking the shop assistant again, Chen Yan was about to turn and leave.

As he turned around, he met the eyes of someone looking at him from the side.

Chen Yan was stunned for a moment, but quickly recognized the owner of the eyes.

"show"

He wanted to call out the other person's name, but then realized the situation and stopped himself, saying instead, "What are you doing here?" Upon closer inspection, the man's expression seemed a little unnatural.

Because Sulli told him last night that Krystal already knew about the relationship between the three of them.

He hadn't expected to run into her here, and was momentarily unsure of her attitude towards the matter and towards him.

"Buy coffee."

Krystal Jung replied briefly in a low voice.

She didn't want to reply because she was very angry with this guy.

But then she thought again that she didn't seem to have any right to be angry.

Although Chen Yan is a scumbag, he didn't scumbag himself.

Moreover, although he was a jerk, Sulli was happy with him, and Taeyeon and Sulli both knew this.

This guy doesn't seem to have any of the things that make a scumbag man despicable and hateful. If I had to name one, it would be his womanizing.

Krystal Jung suddenly fell silent.

I really don't have any right to be angry; he doesn't even know that I like him.

Just then, the clerk's voice rang out: "Customer, your iced Americano is ready."

The girl snapped out of her daze, reached out to take the coffee, looked at Chen Yan, and suddenly asked, "Can we talk?"

"Oh, sure."

The two went up to the second floor of the coffee shop and sat down in a private room.

Looking at the familiar private room environment and then at Jung Soo-jung across from him, Chen Yan couldn't help but show a strange expression.

Same private room, same seat, only the person opposite me changed from Jessica Jung to Krystal Jung.

After chatting with my older sister, I started chatting with my younger sister. It felt a little strange.

His thoughts were interrupted by Jung Soo-jung's voice coming from the other side.

"I know about your relationship with Taeyeon unnie and Sulli."

“I know, Shirley told me.”

Krystal Jung took a sip of coffee, her head slightly lowered, her fingers lightly tapping the rim of the cup. After a moment of silence, she suddenly said:
Can a person truly love two people at the same time?

These words seemed to be directed at Chen Yan, but also at himself.

Chen Yan paused, then fell silent. After a long while, he looked at the girl and said:

"If I say yes, it doesn't seem very convincing, because it sounds more like an answer that's just me trying to cover up my actions. All I can say is that my feelings for them are genuine."

He mentioned "them," including Lim Yoon-a.

Krystal Jung and Chen Yan looked at each other quietly for a moment, then nodded.

She knew Chen Yan was telling the truth and believed him.

but.
She still couldn't accept it, or rather, she still had doubts about the matter itself.

The private room fell silent again.

After a long pause, Krystal Jung finally spoke again: "Chen Yan, we're friends, right?"

Chen Yan nodded without hesitation: "Yes."

Krystal Jung suddenly smiled, revealing her first smile of the night.

He didn't say anything, just nodded in response, then picked up his coffee and took a small sip.

Let's be friends then.

She was reluctant to break off her friendship with Chen Yan.

If she continues to like Chen Yan, she will feel wronged.
