Just when Lin Xiuyuan was being teased as a male model by several "big royal sisters" on the 2025 side, on the other end of time and space in 2013, Zheng Xiuyan also summoned the small team here and quietly came to that familiar small tavern.

"Unnie, what exactly is going on today?"

Lin Xiaolu, who had originally arranged dance practice in the afternoon, didn't expect that just after warming up, she was ambushed by Zheng Xiuyan in the practice room and forcibly dragged here.

Then, when she pushed open the door of the tavern, she found that Sulli and Park Jiyeon were already sitting inside, and she couldn't help but look at Zheng Xiuyan even more confusedly, wanting to figure out the situation.

Sulli, who was being looked at, smiled slightly unconsciously, "YoonA Unnie, I don't know either. Xiuyan Unnie just told us there was something to discuss and asked us all to come over."

Park Jiyeon beside her nodded, she was also the one who was notified.

After everyone gathered in the small tavern, the atmosphere suddenly became quiet for a moment.

And Zheng Xiuyan didn't rush to speak, just looked around first and asked everyone what they wanted to drink.

But because it was only noon, everyone didn't dare to drink, and just asked for a glass of ice water or fruit juice.

Not long after, the three sat on the high stools by the bar, watching Zheng Xiuyan behind them making fruit juice or knocking ice cubes in a decent manner.

At the same time, she was still speaking slowly, "Actually, I called you here today because there is a problem I want to discuss with you."

"What problem?"

Lin Xiaolu, who was brought by her personally, naturally had the strongest curiosity.

On the contrary, Sulli and Park Jiyeon, who arrived early, probably guessed some clues.

"Don't you think that guy has been getting more and more 'unhomely' recently?"

Jessica shoveled ice while narrowing her eyes, her tone laced with a hint of chill.

But Lin Xiaolu didn't seem to understand and was still asking, "Who?"

Fortunately, Sulli explained in time, "Unnie, it's Oppa."

After speaking, she pointed to a certain place in the tavern, fearing that Lin Xiaolu would understand in the wrong direction.

Now Lin Xiaolu finally understood and nodded as if suddenly enlightened, "Oh, that guy Lin Xiuyuan."

However, because she had just joined the sect recently, she didn't have much resonance with what Zheng Xiuyan said.

Until...

"YoonA, didn't you look for him for something a few days ago? Was that the kind of anxiety and impatience of not being able to contact anyone?"

Zheng Xiuyan said lightly, her tone unhurried, but every word was sharp.

"Sometimes we temporarily need some information about the future and want to inquire about the situation, but that guy disappears like a god. You say, does this count as a problem?"

After these words were finished, Lin Yun'er, who didn't have much emotional fluctuation before, immediately became the one with the most resonance and the most resentment.

"That's right, Unnie is absolutely right."

Lin Xiaolu, who nodded in agreement, didn't lack helplessness in her tone, "Phone not answered, message not returned, and then letting yourself wait in vain for a day. That feeling is exactly the same as when I was waiting for the debut notice back then."

However, there was one thing Lin Xiaolu didn't explain, which was that she actually wasn't that nervous when waiting for the debut notice.

Because she knew very well that she would definitely debut; after all, the three great beauties of SM at that time were not just for show.

Gao Yala debuted directly as an actress, Li Yanxi transferred to the acting department due to movie word-of-mouth, and only she was left in Girls' Generation because of her lack of acting skills.

If time could turn back to 2007, if that "Sebi" really became popular, maybe there wouldn't be "Lin Yun'er of Girls' Generation" today.

Looking at the coldness faintly emerging from Zheng Xiuyan, Park Jiyeon opened her mouth cautiously, "So Unnie, you mean..."

"We must keep his 'daily life' here."

Zheng Xiuyan's tone continued to be indifferent but sharp, "He is not a person from 2025; he is clearly a guy from 2013, yet he always insists on staying over there and not coming back."

After saying this, she looked at the three people opposite, "So I just wanted to find everyone to discuss this situation. We can't let the person who opened the lock for us be snatched away by the 2025 side. What do you think, Jiyeon? And YoonA, you too."

As soon as this was said, the two who were named had one expression wonderful, and one immediately "rebelled."

"Unnie, even if you didn't say this, I would have said it."

Park Jiyeon, who already had ideas, opened her mouth while frowning, "I heard from Xiujing over there that Oppa has been playing golf with the old woman and the others over there every day. If he stays there any longer, I'm afraid it will be my turn to be liquidated."

That won't do; Park Jiyeon wouldn't allow such a thing to happen.

As for Lin Xiaolu, although she did need Lin Yun'er's acting guidance.

But after watching the performance of the original female lead of "The Heirs" for a few episodes last night, she suddenly had a bottom line in her heart and only needed to spend time polishing the details and pondering the emotions.

But the biggest problem in this "carving details" process was time.

And time had to rely on Lin Xiuyuan, who could open the Time Gate.

Without him, she couldn't go to the 2025 side to learn at all.

As for copying the materials over?

Forget it, the risk is too high.

This was a consensus reached privately by everyone: never easily bring things from 2025 back.

By comparison, although Sulli didn't have so many urgent needs, if Lin Xiuyuan stayed here, she could at least chat with him and talk about those things about Goo Hara when she was free.

It could be said that the goals were basically consistent.

So the next problem was very clear, which was how to "keep" this boy.

Inadvertently, this seemed to become a "dark struggle" between two time-spaces.

And as the problem was clarified, the next step was to find a solution.

In this regard, the first option that popped into Park Jiyeon's mind was.

"How about seduction?"

As the little clever ghost who could "pit the future old woman to the bottom," being able to think of this step was already her limit operation.

"Ah, playing so big right from the start? Who would do it?"

Lin Yun'er was stunned and looked at her subconsciously.

Park Jiyeon immediately shrank her neck a bit and stopped talking.

She didn't hate it, but it hadn't reached that extent.

Sulli beside her smiled, then expressed with rare seriousness, "YoonA Unnie, don't listen to her nonsense. It's better to let nature take its course for this kind of thing. If you really go with calculating thoughts, and something goes wrong in the end, we'll be completely finished."

"Hmm, Zhenli is right." Zheng Xiuyan nodded, then stated bluntly, "If you, Jiyeon, want to sleep with that guy, then sleep with him, don't calculate too much."

"Ah, I..."

Park Jiyeon pursed her lips, realizing that if she continued to speak, she might say more and make more mistakes, so she decisively shut her mouth.

"Next, YoonA, do you have any ideas?"

Lin Xiaolu, who was asked, frowned slightly. Having just joined the sect, she really hadn't thought about these things for a while.

But she still mentioned the key point sharply, "I think, the most important thing in life is social interaction."

"So you think Lin Xiuyuan has too few friends here?" Zheng Xiuyan took the conversation.

"I'm not sure either, Unnie, you are more familiar with him than I am."

Lin Xiaolu, who was playing with her water glass, continued.

"But didn't you say that he plays with the future Jiyeon and the others almost every day over there? That means there is a social circle. But here, besides us, he just gathers at the tavern, basically having no social life."

After hearing this, everyone felt that this statement made sense, so they started another round of discussion around this problem.

The result was a rather embarrassing reality.

That was that they were in the rising period of their careers, belonging to the golden working stage.

It was not like themselves on the 2025 side, who were already financially free, could arrange time at will, and even rest and play "spring all year round."

Now they were so busy that they wanted to break one minute into two, so where would they have the leisure to accompany people to socialize and play?

So this "social window" instantly exposed the biggest shortcoming of their time-space.

Until Sulli suggested a new suggestion, "We don't have time, but we can introduce some friends to Oppa and let him play with everyone."

As soon as the words fell, Zheng Xiuyan held her forehead helplessly, "Zhenli, you should know that guy is a face-con."

"I know, hahaha."

Sulli smiled as if she had mastered some secret, "Oppa's XP is very subjective and mainstream; the types that young boys like, he is about the same."

In fact, Sulli knew even better than Zheng Xiuyan about some of Lin Xiuyuan's "special preferences."

After all, these "gossip intelligence" were told by Krystal when they were sleeping in the same bed and chatting when bored.

For Krystal, although she wouldn't take the initiative to announce the fact that she slept with Lin Xiuyuan, she didn't intend to hide it either.

After all, regarding the matter of mugwort, it wasn't necessarily that the man was active or the woman was at a disadvantage.

Anyway, she felt quite comfortable.

Lin Xiaolu took a sip of ice water and complained with a smile, "According to what you and Sulli said, that guy Lin Xiuyuan wouldn't look at our amateur friends, and it always makes it seem like we are introducing a girlfriend to him, which is weird."

"YoonA, you have to change your thinking quickly."

Zheng Xiuyan put away her jokes this time, her tone rarely serious.

"It's hard to say whether he has any attraction to the people on the 2025 side, but for us, he is a bug with a 'future perspective' and a 'God's perspective.' If we don't want to repeat the mistakes made in that time-space, grabbing him is the smartest way."

After these words were said, Lin Xiaolu's expression changed visibly.

The voice did not stop, continuing to speak with piercing accuracy.

That ruthlessness and murderous spirit that had once broken out of the singing world and fought hard seemed to be reawakened at this moment, never truly dissipating.

It could be said that Zheng Xiuyan's words completely ignited the belief and ambition that had been almost extinguished on her acting path.

Using Lin Xiuyuan as this bundle of "human firewood," it was re-ignited into a raging flame.

As Lin Xiaolu fell into silence, Zheng Xiuyan also sighed lightly.

Seeing this, Sulli couldn't help but quietly exchange a look with Park Jiyeon.

Park Jiyeon smacked her lips, curled her lips and hummed, "Then it seems only I and Unnie have time."

At the same time.

In the T-ara dormitory, Xian Enjing and Park Xiaomin felt a chill behind their backs for no reason, as if they were suddenly stared at by some uneasy thought, and the chill went straight to the forehead along the spine.

As if someone was quietly counting them into some plan.

2025.

In the golf practice area.

After looking at the time on her watch, Lin Xiuyuan looked at Lin Yun'er and Dalongzai who were still swinging the club and said, "It's almost 1 PM, shall we eat first?"

"So fast?"

Lin Yun'er, who knocked a club casually, turned back to look at him, seeing Lin Xiuyuan raise his wrist, signaling her to look at the time.

Not far away, Li Juli, who was chatting with Kim Taeyeon, also heard the movement and got up and walked over, "Hmm, let's eat first. After eating, the time is just right to go out and play a round before going home."

Dalongzai, who walked off the ball table, put away the club, took off her gloves, and looked at Lin Yun'er, "Then let's go, Unnie, just leave the things here, it doesn't matter."

"Okay."

Lin Yun'er also nodded and followed them out.

Just when walking to Lin Xiuyuan's side, she suddenly slowed down, her gaze sweeping over the watch on his wrist, "Given by Xiujing?"

"Why isn't it bought by myself?" Lin Xiuyuan asked back with a smile.

"Omega, the latest model of the 2025 moon landing series, there are probably not many in Seoul."

She curled her lips, "How could you afford it?"

Lin Xiuyuan didn't expect her to recognize it at a glance, and couldn't help but be a bit surprised, "Your eye is too accurate."

Facing Lin Xiuyuan's praise, Lin Yun'er just complained a bit depressed, "Because I originally wanted to give you this model too; it seems Xiujing's eye is faster and more accurate than mine."

"Ah, haha, then forget it, better not give watches; I have a pile at home that I haven't had time to wear yet."

Lin Xiuyuan, who heard this answer from Lin Yun'er, hurriedly expressed.

After all, the pile of wristwatches in the closet, many of which he hadn't tried yet, would only be gathering dust if new goods came.

"She gave you a lot?"

Her footsteps paused, and Lin Yun'er turned back to look at him.

Seeing him nod, before he had time to answer, Lin Yun'er opened her mouth softly again, "Can I go see?"

Ahead, Dalongzai had already turned back and shouted, "You two hurry up!"

Seeing this, Lin Xiuyuan also nodded hurriedly, "Yes, anytime."

"Then tonight."

"Ah."

Lin Xiuyuan was stunned and turned to look at Lin Yun'er.

You're doing this again?

(End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 108 =====

"Then let's make it tonight."

"Ah."

Lin Xiuyuan was stunned and turned his head to look at Lin Yun'er.

Are you pulling this stunt again?
