469 "The Married Woman Who Got Herself Drunk!" (Seeking subscriptions and monthly tickets)

Year 25, Seoul, overcast, noon.

The sky had been gray since morning, the cloud layer hanging very low, sunlight firmly blocked behind the clouds.

Inside Lin YoonA's bedroom, the air held a lingering, warm scent from sleep, mixed with the aroma of her usual aromatherapy, gently floating all around.

The quilt on the bed should have been covering Lin Xiuyuan, but after a night of tossing and turning, the duvet cover had crumpled into a ball, most of it piled at the foot of the bed, with only a small section still draped over his calves.

And at this moment, he was having a chaotic dream.

Then, at this very moment, without any warning, a weight suddenly pressed down onto his body.

It wasn't the kind of weight that leaned over gently, but the kind where a whole person actually pounced on him, and he was the landing point.

Lin Xiuyuan's body was dragged directly out of his sleep by this sudden impact.

Before he even had time to open his eyes, his body had already reacted first; his shoulders subconsciously hunched upward, his brain switched from deep sleep to a state of alert within a fraction of a second, and his heartbeat quickened by half a beat.

Immediately following this, two bursts of cheerful laughter reached his ears, carrying a bit of smugness from a successful prank, exploding in the quiet bedroom.

Then a hearty voice rang out, "Wake up, Xiuyuan, if you don't wake up soon, the sun is going to burn your butt."

"Be careful, Zhiyan, be careful, don't actually crush him." This voice was gentle, carrying a hint of worry and helplessness, with a sense of propriety.

To this, Dalongzai laughed and added, "Don't worry, Unnie, I avoided that little 'nugget' when I pressed down, I didn't crush it."

"Time to eat, get up quickly."

Listening to the familiar voices, Lin Xiuyuan, who had suddenly opened his eyes, had his pupils slightly unfocused from being forcibly awakened from sleep; he could only see the texture of the pillow and bedsheets right in front of him.

So he closed his eyes once more, then opened them again.

Finally, his pupils gradually returned to a normal focal length, like a camera lens finishing its focus, and he saw clearly the two people who had appeared in the bedroom.

Or rather, Dalongzai was lying on top of him in an extremely ungraceful posture, her legs spread apart and kneeling on the mattress, as if she were riding a horse.

She was simply wearing a loose black hoodie, the sleeves long enough to cover half the back of her hands, her hair draped casually, yet the corners of her mouth were stretched almost to her ears, her eyes sparkling with happy light.

And Li Juli, who was standing to the side wearing a turtleneck sweater and a dark skirt, had not pounced onto the bed like Park Jiyeon, perhaps because she felt the black silk stockings wrapped around her legs were not very convenient.

After seeing the two of them clearly, Lin Xiuyuan also exerted force, pulling Dalongzai firmly into his embrace, making her completely unable to move.

Dalongzai let out an "Ah" at this sudden counter-move of his, then struggled and twisted twice in his arms.

But Lin Xiuyuan was pressing down very tightly; the more she struggled, the tighter he held her.

In the end, she could only helplessly give up struggling, just letting him hold her, resting her chin on the top of his head, and enjoying this moment of intimacy.

After temporarily stabilizing this rowdy dragon cub, Lin Xiuyuan finally lifted his head and turned his face to look at Li Juli standing by the bed, "What's the situation? How come you two came over?"

His voice was a bit hoarse from just waking up, his throat not yet fully cleared, and his tone was half a pitch lower than usual.

"Looking for you, what else?" Li Juli answered with a smile, while placing the paper bag she was carrying on the nightstand, "Brought you something to eat by the way, guessed you probably hadn't eaten yet."

Just then, the Dalongzai in his arms moved again.

But this time the movement wasn't large; it was a somewhat subtle squirm, and then her voice came from his embrace, "Xiuyuan, let me go quickly, you aren't wearing any pants, are you? You're poking me."

Hearing this, Lin Xiuyuan finally remembered that after his fun with Xiaolu, he had just held her and slept naked.

Thinking of this, he looked down, saw the Dalongzai he had suppressed at the base of his thighs, and laughed out loud.

However, he still loosened his grip on her, and Dalongzai also took the opportunity to get up and retreat to the foot of the bed, sitting with her legs crossed, and gave Lin Xiuyuan a very charming glare.

Seeing this, Lin Xiuyuan didn't feel embarrassed at all; this was a normal physiological phenomenon, waking up in the morning, who isn't like this?

So he rubbed his eyes nonchalantly, rubbed his face with his palms, used that action to steady himself, and then slowly sat up from the bed.

"What time is it? The sky doesn't even seem to have brightened much, why are you in such a rush to find me?"

"There's no sun today, it's an overcast day," Dalongzai's voice came from the foot of the bed, "And you've already slept until noon, YoonA has already gone to work."

Upon hearing it was noon, Lin Xiuyuan was surprised, and then he turned his head, his gaze sweeping back and forth between Park Jiyeon and Li Juli, his expression becoming even more confused.

"So why did you two run over here?"

Although Dalongzai did indeed make surprise attacks, today even Li Juli had come along, and they had come straight to Lin YoonA's home, which meant there must be something that made both of them feel it was necessary to find him in person.

"You wouldn't answer your phone, we were in a rush to find you, so we asked YoonA for the password and came over," Dalongzai, who had already stood up from the foot of the bed, replied.

"I didn't hear it ring," Lin Xiuyuan, finding this strange, hurriedly turned to find his phone.

After the screen lit up, the first thing he saw was the small mute icon on the status bar; a few seconds later, it was as if a switch had been flipped in his brain, and he recalled the situation from last night.

Only then did he laugh, "Ah, I forgot, YoonA was resting in the car last night, I set my phone to silent and didn't change it back later, sorry."

"It's fine, anyway, if we couldn't get through, we'd just come offline to find the real you," Dalongzai didn't take this matter to heart at all.

Lin Xiuyuan put his phone back on the nightstand, then pointed his finger in the direction of Park Jiyeon and Li Juli, and finally pointed at himself, "So what exactly are you looking for me for?"

As he spoke, he had already gotten completely out of bed, his bare feet stepping on the bedroom's wooden floor.

At this moment, Lin Xiuyuan was wearing nothing, standing naked right in front of Li Juli and Dalongzai.

Although the light in the bedroom was the gray-white of an overcast day, it was bright enough to illuminate his entire silhouette and muscle lines very clearly.

However, Li Juli and Dalongzai were no longer young girls; there was no scene they hadn't seen, so they just watched him openly, their gazes devoid of the slightest evasion or shyness.

Then Li Juli answered Lin Xiuyuan's previous question, "We came to ask you what you did to Xiaomin, causing her to run over to me last night and drink all night, and after getting herself drunk, she just fell asleep at my place. She kept muttering your name; someone who didn't know better would think you had bullied her."

"Nah nah nah nah, let's talk, but no slander,"

Lin Xiuyuan immediately became alert, crossing his hands in front of his chest and waving them twice, making a defensive gesture.

"Last night I just happened to run into her at the restaurant, I already tried my best to avoid her. I've said it before, if you keep spreading rumors about me like this, I really will take her down. You think I don't want to experience the joy of having two Xiaomins?"

And just as he finished speaking, Dalongzai had already circled behind him, her two hands pushing on his back, shoving him in the direction of the bathroom.

"Got it, we know it's not your fault. You go wash up first, we'll sit down and talk in a bit, who goes around acting like a hooligan while naked?"

"It's not like you haven't touched or grabbed before, Zhiyan, the way you say that now, it feels a bit like a 'scumbag girl' who doesn't want to take responsibility after getting into bed."

Lin Xiuyuan's mouth was faster than his footsteps; although he was being pushed toward the bathroom by Park Jiyeon, his mouth wasn't idle at all.

So when this sentence came out of his mouth, it didn't need any thought, nor did it need a draft.

To the point that the second he finished saying it, he was met with a precision strike from behind; a sock-clad foot, carrying an undeniable gust of air, kicked toward the position of his butt.

Frightened, he laughed repeatedly and hopped forward two steps, like a rabbit that had suddenly accelerated, and darted quickly into the bathroom.

Then the bathroom door slammed shut behind him with a 'pop'.

Li Juli stood in the bedroom, looking at the bathroom door panel, and shook her head; the curve of her lips indicated that she was actually in a pretty good mood.

Then she patted Dalongzai on the shoulder and said, "Go wait in the Living Room," and the two of them turned and walked out of the bedroom.

Inside the bathroom.

After a simple shower, Lin Xiuyuan washed up, then wrapped himself in a bath towel and returned to the bedroom.

Only, there was no one in the bedroom now; the curtains were still in the same state as before, and the quilt was still piled in a heap at the foot of the bed.

Seeing this, he walked straight to the wardrobe and opened the door.

The wardrobe was neatly hung with quite a few clothes, both men's and women's, but there was a corner that Lin YoonA had specifically cleared out for him, and the folded clothes on it were all things she had gradually added for him.

After choosing a simple outfit to put on, Lin Xiuyuan walked out of the bedroom to the Living Room and looked at the two people on the sofa.

Seeing that Lin Xiuyuan had finally cleaned himself up and come out, Li Juli and Dalongzai both raised their heads to look at him.

He walked over and plopped down into the empty seat between them, "Tell me, what is going on with that married woman Park Hyomin? I didn't even provoke her last night, why did she go out drinking?"

While taking a shower just now, Lin Xiuyuan had been recalling his attitude toward Park Hyomin at the sushi restaurant last night.

How should he put it? It was definitely gentle and friendly, even more polite than usual, and he had even restrained himself quite a bit when talking back.

But even so, she actually ran off to Li Juli's place to drink that night; he really couldn't figure out this cause-and-effect relationship.

"If we knew, would we still need to come and ask you? We just don't know." Li Juli said speechlessly, slapping away the wolf paw that had already very naturally placed itself on her thigh.

That hand had reached over within less than ten seconds after Lin Xiuyuan sat down.

The movement was so natural, and his expression so calm, as if he weren't touching a thigh, but simply resting his right hand on a comfortable armrest.

His palm landed squarely on top of Li Juli's thigh, clearly feeling the skin temperature and muscle contours beneath the nylon material of her black silk stockings.

The texture of the silk stockings was very smooth, like touching a layer of thin ice wrapped around warmth.

As for that slap from Li Juli, although it made a crisp 'pop' sound, it didn't actually hurt at all, and she didn't push Lin Xiuyuan's hand away after she finished slapping.

It was as if that slap was merely some kind of symbolic disciplinary ritual.

So Lin Xiuyuan, having been hit, simply withdrew his hand for a moment before putting it back as if nothing had happened, and asked with concern, "Juli, isn't it cold for your feet to wear silk stockings in this freezing weather?"

"If I didn't wear them, then how would you have anything to touch, right?" Li Juli rolled her eyes at him, finding it quite amusing.

On the other side, Dalongzai glanced at the scene of these two flirting like they were on stage, but didn't say anything, as she had seen it often enough.

She then withdrew her gaze and kept her head down, continuing to chat with Park Hyomin on her phone.

Although she hadn't been drinking with this unni last night, she had gone over to Li Juli's place in the morning to comfort the hungover Park Hyomin and try to probe a little.

To see if she could get any information or something of the sort.

It was just a pity that Park Hyomin's reaction was always to smile and shake her head, saying nothing was wrong, she just suddenly wanted to have a couple of drinks and couldn't control herself.

Her little mouth was sealed so tight, not a single word could be pried out.

As a result, the more she acted like that, the more worried Dalongzai and Li Juli became.

Because in the eyes of sisters who had known each other for so many years, Park Hyomin's personality was never one to drink herself into a stupor for no reason; something must have happened, but she just wasn't willing to say what it was.

Since that was the case, they could only look for the answer from the other end.

Which was Lin Xiuyuan's side.

And this point was actually revealed by Park Hyomin herself, who had spent the whole morning full of resentment complaining to them about Lin Xiuyuan going on a date with Pei Zhuxuan last night, calling him a playboy and telling them both to be careful not to capsize.

So that was how it happened, leading to the situation where Dalongzai and Li Juli asked Lin YoonA for the home password and came straight to find Lin Xiuyuan.

Only, after entering, they found Lin Xiuyuan still lying on the bed sleeping like a dead pig, and what followed was Dalongzai pouncing on him to wake him up.

After hearing the cause and effect explained by the two, Lin Xiuyuan, who was still touching the silk stockings, was a bit bewildered, because he really hadn't done anything to that married woman Park Hyomin last night.

So after pondering for a moment, a thought suddenly occurred to him, and he looked at Li Juli and asked, "Juli, what time did Hyomin go to your place to drink? Do you know the exact time?"

"I know, it was after midnight, I was just about to go to sleep."

"Then it probably has nothing to do with me. Based on the time she finished eating and went back last night, if she had gone straight to you, it would definitely have been around 10 o'clock. If she didn't go until after midnight, something else must have happened in between."

"Really?"

"I'm guessing, but anyway, it's eight or nine times out of ten that it has nothing to do with me."
