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

Chapter 351 Tea Talk by Lin Chacha (3000 words)
Chen Yan opened his mouth, wanting to say that these three popular female celebrities were all free tonight and had even made plans to come to his house to watch him unwrap his gifts.

Lin Yoona noticed her man's expression, her doe eyes narrowed slightly, and she said with a half-smile, "You seem to have something to say."

"Oh, I just wanted to ask if you were thirsty, and if you'd like me to get you some water."

Of course, I couldn't say what I was thinking, otherwise the three women would definitely interpret it as me not welcoming them to my home.

Taking it a step further, it means you no longer want to see them or love them.

Girls have their own independent reading comprehension system.

"You're making us sound like guests. We'll get our own water if we're thirsty. Why don't you open all the gifts? After you're done, I'll take you to get your birthday present."

Upon hearing this, Kim Tae-yeon looked at her and asked, "Where are we going to get it?"

Chen Yan and Taozi also looked at her with some curiosity.

Yoona smiled and narrowed her eyes: "It'll be a secret for now, you'll find out soon enough."

The three nodded and said nothing more.

Kim Tae-yeon was relieved. What Im Yoon-ah meant was that she would take her and Taozi along, not just her and Chen Yan.

She was afraid that her younger sister might say she was taking a man to pick up a gift, but then he would disappear without a trace.

Lin Xiaolu is absolutely capable of doing something like that.

She couldn't let this happen under her nose.

All three of us are here now, how could we possibly let you take the person away and have them all to yourself?

"Row."

Chen Yan reached out to grab the gift box that was closest to him.

At this moment, Peach suddenly remembered something and raised her hand, saying, "Wait a minute, oppa, I haven't brought Ji-eun's gift yet. I'll go get it."

After saying that, she got up and ran to the guest room.

Kim Tae-yeon and Im Yoon-ah narrowed their eyes slightly as they watched Peach's retreating figure.

Lee Ji-eun's intentions don't seem entirely pure; we need to see what she actually gave her.

This is one of the reasons why the three of us came together tonight.

Aside from having some free time and wanting to spend more time with Chen Yan, the rest of the reason was to see what gifts he received for his birthday yesterday.

You can tell a lot from gifts.

"Xiaoyan, were you sleepy at work today?"

Turning her gaze away, Kim Tae-yeon glanced at her man's expression and asked with concern.

"Fortunately, I was able to catch up on sleep during my lunch break."

Chen Yan replied with a smile.

He slept quite well during his nap at noon. The matter that was causing him the most worry, Jessica Jung's older sister, has made progress, and they'll have a good chat about it when they meet tomorrow night.

I just don't know what that woman is thinking.
A thoughtful look flashed across Chen Yan's face. Realizing what was happening, he quickly pulled himself together and stopped thinking about it.

We'll find out tomorrow night, so I can't think about it too much now. It wouldn't be good if Kim Tae-yeon and the others noticed something.

Then Peach reappeared in their sight, carrying a rather large gift box.

Chen Yan quickly got up and took the gift box, which was quite heavy.

Peach breathed a sigh of relief; "I wonder what kind of gift Zhi'en gave, it's so big and heavy."

When she went to pick up the gift that day, she asked Lee Ji-eun, but Lee Ji-eun just smiled and shook her head, saying that she would know when oppa opened the gift.

Kim Tae-yeon and Im Yoon-ah also looked at the gift box with some curiosity.

Chen Yan opened the gift box, and a familiar-looking box appeared before them.

"It's a guitar."

Chen Yan nodded, opened the glossy black guitar case, and a glossy black wooden guitar came into view.

The guitar is entirely black, except for three artistic "yan" letters on the soundbox, which adds a touch of coolness to the overall look.

"Oh, it's a guitar. No wonder it's so heavy."

A look of realization flashed across Peach's face.

She knew that Chen Yan could play the guitar.

It's perfectly normal for someone who studies music to be able to play an instrument.

Besides playing guitar, my oppa also plays the drums and a little piano.

This was something Lee Ji-eun had told her before; the two had talked about musical instruments during class.

Kim Tae-yeon and Im Yoon-ah stared at the guitar, their expressions somewhat dazed.

The two women each recalled the memory of Chen Yan playing the guitar for them in their past lives.

They only snapped out of their daze and gathered their thoughts after Chen Yan put the guitar back in its case.

Seeing Chen Yan looking over, Kim Tae-yeon smiled and said, "Let's look at the other gifts, Xiao Yan."

Fortunately, I will have many more opportunities to hear Xiao Yan play the guitar in this life.

"This is Panioni's."

Lin Yoona also reached out and took the nearest gift box and handed it to Chen Yan.

The last trace of emotion in his eyes vanished at the same time.

Chen Yan took it and opened it; inside was a pink aromatherapy diffuser to help with sleep.

Kim Tae-yeon and the other two only glanced at it before looking away.

After setting the aromatherapy diffuser aside, Chen Yan began to unwrap the gifts given to him by the other members of Girls' Generation.

The gifts given were all very common items, such as decorative ornaments for the home, wallets, instant cameras, and the like.

It's worth mentioning that there was a note next to the Polaroid camera.

[Xiaoyan, use this Polaroid camera to capture more of your sweet moments with Taeyeon. --Your Sooyoung noona]

Looking at the note, Chen Yan was speechless for a moment.

He noticed that Yoona's gaze was starting to look strange, while Taeyeon was laughing happily.

Across from her, Peach couldn't help but laugh after learning what was on the note, but she didn't dare to laugh too loudly.

Those bright, large eyes were secretly observing Yoona unnie's expression.

Upon hearing Kim Tae-yeon's laughter, Im Yoon-ah gritted her teeth, her doe-like eyes narrowed slightly, and a dangerous glint flashed in her eyes.

Seeing this, Chen Yan wanted to say that ignorance is no excuse, but he immediately swallowed his words back.

If he were to defend Choi Soo-young, then he would be the one to die.

A dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist.

Sigh, blame it on that girl Choi Soo-young for asking for trouble; she had to add a note in there of all things.

Observing the little deer's expression beside him, the man couldn't help but silently mourn for Choi Soo-young.

He silently put the note away and put it in his pocket.

We can't let this note keep waving in front of Yoona, or it might explode at any moment, and she'll start condemning him as a scumbag.

But you can't just throw it away, because Kim Tae-yeon's older sister is right there.

Noticing the man's movements, Kim Tae-yeon's eyes narrowed slightly, but her smile remained unchanged.

Lin Yoona gave a soft snort, wrinkled her upturned nose, and glared at him.

Peach, watching her oppa's move with a smile, a slight upturn at the corners of her mouth. Oppa's getting more and more adept at it.

As if nothing had happened, Chen Yan took the next gift.

This is a gift from Jessica Jung.

Upon opening the gift box, a black GUCCI belt came into view.

Chen Yan paused slightly, then looked at the three of them, and asked tentatively:
"Isn't this gift a little too expensive?"

It's not really about the price; it's just a belt. No matter how valuable it is, it's not that valuable.

He wanted to test the three people's attitude.

After all, a belt isn't exactly special, but it's still something worn close to the body. It depends on what the three of them think.

Kim Tae-yeon glanced at the belt while watching the latest episode of "Running Man" on TV, then looked away.

"It's alright, Xiaoyan, keep it. It's just a belt, nothing valuable."

Lim Yoona reached out and forked a piece of cut mango into her mouth. After glancing at the belt, she turned back to watch TV.

“This is Jessica’s style of giving gifts, it’s not surprising.”

Peach smiled and nodded: "This gift is really nice, oppa."

Having received the three men's responses, Chen Yan nodded and put the belt aside.

Next up is Krystal Jung's gift.

The gift box was opened to reveal a pair of exquisitely designed silver and white Bluetooth earphones.

The three people next to him only glanced at it before going back to watching TV.

Chen Yan looked at the headphones and smiled slightly.

He immediately noticed the small "k" engraved on the bottom of the earphone.

The color and design of the headphones are exactly the same as the voice recorder that Krystal Jung gave him before.

This can be considered a small unspoken understanding between the two.

I put away the headphones and picked up the next gift box.

Who sent this gift?

He vaguely remembered the gift boxes he received yesterday, but he didn't remember this one.

Peach turned her head and glanced at it: "Oh, it was given by Suzy. Krystal brought it over yesterday."

"Swish" "Swish"

Two piercing gazes immediately shot straight to the gift box in front of Chen Yan.

Chen Yan's eye twitched.

For some reason, these two people seemed to have a stress response whenever they heard Bae Suzy's name.

I was so engrossed in watching TV when I was unwrapping other people's gifts that I didn't seem to care at all, but now I'm suddenly all excited.

With a smile on her face, Lin Yoona said like a bystander, "Hurry up and open it to see what gift they gave you."

Kim Tae-yeon laughed and chimed in, "Yeah, hurry up and open it. They even had Krystal bring it over."

Peach's smile remained unchanged, but a glint of shrewdness flashed in her eyes.

It seems these two unnies are quite wary of Suzy.

Indeed, everyone would be wary of that innocent face of the nation's first love.

I wonder what these two unnies think of Ji-eun.

They're probably a little wary, since there are quite a few fans online who ship oppa and IU.

A genius music producer paired with a national female solo artist from the peninsula – quite a few people are shipping them.

After glancing at the gift box in front of him, Chen Yan glanced at the two people on either side of him and calmly began to open it.

There's nothing to panic about.

He reiterated that he and Bae Suzy were innocent.

Besides, he had already asked Bae Suzy this morning, and she said it was just a small item, so why couldn't it be taken apart?

The gift box was opened, and inside lay a delicate, transparent glass bottle, its pale orange liquid shimmering slightly under the light.

Before Chen Yan could even recognize what it was, Lin Yoona, standing next to him, gave the answer: "Wow, it's Hermès Terre d'Hermes men's fragrance."

Her exaggerated tone and slightly parted cherry lips seemed to indicate that she was afraid others wouldn't notice the subtle tea flavor in her words.

After looking at the perfume bottle, she turned to Chen Yan, her face still beaming with a smile:
"When a girl gives a man perfume, it means she wants you to always smell like her."

Chen Yan's lips twitched.

How could he not know that giving perfume had this hidden meaning? Perhaps it was something you came up with on your own, Yoona?

Seeing that Kim Tae-yeon was also about to speak, he quickly interrupted the spellcasting:
“I don’t usually wear perfume, so I’ll just leave this gift here.”

"That's not a good idea. They've already given it to you. If you don't use it, what if you run into them at work and they don't smell the perfume and ask why you're not wearing it?"

"What reason do you have to explain this? If this affects your relationship, then it will be our fault."

He fiddled with his hair, a hint of worry on his face, and with a wave of his hand, another cup of top-grade West Lake Longjing tea was served.

"puff"

Kim Tae-yeon, standing next to her, exchanged a glance with Peach, looking at Yoona's pitiful expression and Chen Yan's bewildered look.

Finally, he couldn't help but burst out laughing, then quickly raised his hand to cover his mouth, his shoulders shaking uncontrollably.

When it comes to tea ceremony, Yoona's level is the highest, and the tea she brews has the strongest flavor.

Chen Yan subconsciously clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.

"I'll come up with a good reason, and there's nothing that would affect our relationship."

How come he never noticed before that Yoona is such a good actress?

Her every move truly captured some of Lin Daiyu's charm.

And that little mouth, it's so quick and easy, she's quite the talker.

I'll have to give it a good try next time and see how long she can keep going on and on.

It must be the kind where you hold 38.5℃ warm water in your mouth.

"Oh, all right."

After giving her the desired response, Yoona stopped there, putting away the perfume and casually placing it aside as if it had been banished to the cold palace.

Then he pointed to the last two gift boxes on the table.

"And here are gifts from Jinri and Taeyeon unnie, take a look."

Chen Yan glanced at her pink lips again before reaching out to take the peach gift box.

I glanced up at the little peach.

Peach replied with a sweet smile: "Oppa, open it and take a look, you should like it."

"it is good."

Chen Yan smiled, reached out and unwrapped the gift box, then opened it.

After seeing what was inside, he, along with Kim Tae-yeon and Im Yoon-ah, were all stunned.
