Chapter 67 The Love-Hate Relationship with Taisi
Yoona nodded: "Yeah, I chatted with Jessica unnie for a while and then we made plans to have dinner together."
After saying that, her doe-like eyes suddenly lit up: "Unnie, do you want to come along?"
"Me? What would I do there? She invited you, not me."
For some reason, there seemed to be a hint of resentment in Kim Tae-yeon's tone.
"Oops~"
Im Yoona sat down again and shook Kim Tae-yeon's arm.
"Of course you can go, unnie. Jessica unnie didn't ask me to talk about anything, just wanted to have a meal. If you go, Jessica unnie will actually be happy too."
How could Yoona not know these two unnies?
One is stubborn, the other is taciturn, but they both secretly love each other.
"happy?"
Kim Tae-yeon looked at Im Yoon-ah with amusement: "Are you sure she'll be happy to see me? She'll probably just turn her back and walk away, right?"
"Oh dear~ how could that be? Unnie, come with me, just come along. It's been so long since we ate together."
"Hey, stop! Stop shaking!"
Unable to withstand Yoona's coquettish voice, Kim Tae-yeon quickly raised her hand to stop her.
Jessica's face slowly appeared in her mind. She pursed her lips and said:
"You should ask her first. It wouldn't be appropriate for me to just go with you like this."
As she spoke, she added, "Don't say I wanted to go. I didn't even intend to go. I was just going with you."
She really couldn't resist Yoona's sweet talk and changed her mind; it's definitely not because she herself wanted to see Jessica.
It would be incredibly embarrassing if Jessica misunderstood that I wanted to see her.
"Okay, I understand."
Lim Yoona agreed and took out her phone.
It was all her idea, the youngest member, who always takes the blame. She's an expert at this.
The message was sent quickly and showed as read, but the reply didn't come until two minutes later.
Jessica: If she wants to come, let her come. How could I not let her come? I only agreed to it because of you.
Tsk, something that could be solved with just a "okay" is being typed out of the blue, and all this talk about doing it for my sake.
Yoona smiled secretly and replied with a cute "Okay" emoji.
Whose maknae (youngest member) is over 30 and still acting cute? That's me!
She put down her phone and turned to look at Kim Tae-yeon: "Unnie, Jessica unnie said you're welcome to come."
Upon hearing this, Kim Tae-yeon couldn't help but roll her eyes: "Stop talking nonsense."
If Jessica could say that, then her drawn eyebrows would become real.
"I'm going to change my clothes," she said, getting up.
Okay.
---
Around 7 p.m., Kim Tae-yeon drove to a high-end Korean restaurant in Gangnam.
She and Yoona carefully concealed themselves as they got out of the car and entered the restaurant, following the waiter to their reserved private room.
I opened the door and went inside; Jessica was already there.
She didn't get up, but glanced at Kim Tae-yeon next to Im Yoon-ah before speaking:
"You're here, please have a seat."
Kim Tae-yeon also glanced at Jessica, but didn't say a word, and sat down opposite her with Im Yoon-ah.
The two took off their masks, and Jessica handed the menu to Yoona.
"I've already ordered a few dishes. Is there anything else you'd like to eat or drink?"
Yoona took the menu: "Okay, thank you, unnie."
Jessica returned a smile, then her gaze unconsciously drifted to Kim Tae-yeon beside her.
Ok?
She frowned.
Why is this woman's nose a little red? Her breathing is also a bit heavier. Does she have a cold?
Im Yoona placed the menu between herself and Kim Tae-yeon.
"Unnie, is there anything you'd like to eat?"
Kim Tae-yeon glanced at it and shook her head.
"No, just keep an eye on things, just order me a glass of iced lemonade."
Before Yoona could even reply, Jessica's mutterings started from the other end of the line.
"Tch, you have a cold and you're still drinking iced drinks. How old are you? You're still acting like a child."
Kim Tae-yeon heard this, pursed her lips, and neither looked up nor replied.
Beside her, Im Yoona also paused slightly, then smiled at Kim Tae-yeon and said:
"Unnie, Jessica unnie is right, you have a cold, drinking cold drinks is really not good. Why don't you listen to Jessica unnie and just drink some warm water?"
Before Kim Tae-yeon could reply, Jessica spoke up again.
"Hey, what do you mean by 'listen to me'? I didn't tell her to listen to me. She's a grown woman, why should she listen to others? Doesn't she know her place?"
Kim Tae-yeon finally looked up at Jessica, then said to Im Yoon-ah:
"Yoona, you're right, I'll be fine with warm water."
Forced to become a messenger, Lim Yoona smiled helplessly and nodded.
We anticipated this situation, didn't we?
Across from her, Jessica, who had just put a small dish in her mouth, suddenly smiled slightly, but then quickly suppressed it.
Yoona ordered an extra dish and asked the waiter to bring her a pitcher of warm water.
The dishes they ordered arrived one after another, and the three of them began to eat, with two of them chatting as they ate.
If three people are eating, then why are two people chatting while eating?
Because Kim Tae-yeon just ate her food silently the whole time without saying a word.
Jessica chatted with Yoona, but her eyes kept glancing at Tae-yeon beside her.
Then she grew angrier and angrier, and her breathing became heavier and heavier.
What exactly does this woman mean?
I came to eat with Yoona, but she didn't say a word.
If that's the case, then what are you doing here?
If someone who didn't know better saw this, they would think that she and Yoona were deliberately isolating each other.
I haven't even given you the cold shoulder, and you're already putting on airs!
It makes me so angry!
Jessica glared at Kim Tae-yeon, who was eating with her head down, and subconsciously picked up a piece of freshly served green vegetable and put it in her mouth.
"Ouch, it's so hot!"
"Are you alright, unnie?" Im Yoona asked with concern.
Before Jessica could reply, a muttering sound suddenly came from the other side.
"How old are you? Why do you keep burning yourself like a child while eating? Don't you have any self-awareness?"
"Hey! Kim Tae-yeon!"
Jessica was furious.
What does this woman mean?
Just as Yoona was about to speak up to offer some advice, Taeyeon stood up and looked at her, saying:
"I'm going to the restroom."
After saying that, he didn't even look at Jessica, and turned to leave the private room.
Jessica watched her retreating figure, her chest heaving.
She slammed down her chopsticks, looked at Yoona, and was about to start complaining.
"Adu"
A message notification tone suddenly sounded.
The light from diagonally opposite made her look over instinctively.
That's Kim Tae-yeon's phone.
The next second, Jessica suddenly froze.
Across from her, Yoona looked over in confusion, following her gaze.
After seeing Kim Tae-yeon's lit-up phone, he was also stunned for a moment.
On the still-lit phone screen, apart from a message pop-up, the rest of the space was occupied by a screensaver photo.
It was a photograph of a man standing sideways in the sunset.
The person taking the photo seemed to be taking it secretly from a distance, and the angle was deliberately chosen.
The man's profile was partially obscured by a halo of light, making it appear hazy and indistinct.
If you don't know the person very well, you won't recognize who they are.
But this man was someone Jessica knew very well.
That's Chen Ran.
