Chapter 168 Are their hands stuck with glue?
It was already early in the morning when she got home. Ye-eun turned around and looked at Quan Zhilong who was still following her. She found that he hadn't said much today and just stayed by her side. She felt helpless and distressed: "Aren't you going home?"
The original plan for the first half of the year was to be in Japan, but because of the devastating earthquake, 2NE1's work this month had changes, and Ye-eun had a short vacation. Naturally, she went home with her mother, who had been worried for more than ten hours, to enjoy her care.
Quan Zhilong pursed his lips, held Yien's hand tightly, and shook his head: "Go back with you."
This year, Itaewon was undergoing planning and the two families moved. Although they are no longer neighbors, they still live very close to each other.
Kwon Da-mi spread her hands helplessly and directly pulled her parents who were still waiting away. It seemed that she was going to live at Ye-eun's house.
Li Zhen was also frightened, but when she saw Zhilong looking at her eagerly, she couldn't help but laugh, "Then Auntie, please clean up the guest room."
"..." Quan Zhilong pursed his lips and squeezed Yien's hand. Yien understood instantly and shook her head, "No need, he lives in my room."
The two parents were stunned for a moment and looked at each other: "Oh oh..."
Li Zhen couldn't help but look at the two children. Although they had known that they were dating, in their eyes they were still children.
I didn't expect that two people could already live in the same room.
Quan Zhilong held Yi Eun's hand tightly as if he was afraid that she would disappear. When he followed her into the room, he couldn't help but call out again, "Ye Eun."
"Yes, I'm here." Along the way, every time Kwon Ji-yong called Ye-eun's name, Ye-eun would respond gently.
When in Japan, Ye-en truly felt a fear she had never felt before. The feeling that humans were like ants in the face of natural disasters made her completely unable to control her emotions.
When he heard that Cailin, this fool, was walking against the flow of people to the higher parts of the building, he became even more scared and anxious, and almost wanted to beat her up. But when she really appeared in front of her, Yien couldn't help but feel an incomparable sense of security.
Even though she thought about how scared Dara was, she had to stay calm. However, she was only a 20-year-old girl after all. She cried from the 34th floor to the moment she met up with Lee Chae-lin, and only stopped crying when she finally returned to the first floor.
However, after returning to Korea, even though Ye-eun was a big-hearted person, the fear gradually disappeared with the company of her family when she stood in a familiar environment. But unexpectedly, the uneasiness in Kwon Ji-yong's heart did not disappear at all.
It was probably because they were still on the phone but the connection was suddenly disconnected, which magnified his anxiety. Yien wondered in her mind.
Yi Eun took the small dessert that Li Zhen brought with one hand, turned her head to look at her other hand that was held, and said softly: "Please take this bowl over."
Quan Zhilong nodded, without letting go of the hand that was holding hers, and took the bowl from her hand, whispering, "Thank you, aunt."
"Oh my god," Li Zhen glanced at Quan Zhilong and couldn't help but raised his hand to pat his shoulder, and also whispered to comfort him, "Zhilong, don't be afraid, Yien is back."
"...Yeah." Quan Zhilong's eyes became moist again. Until Li Zhen turned around and left, the two put the dessert on the table. The only sound in the quiet room was Quan Zhilong's sobbing.
He tilted his head back slightly and raised his hand to cover one of his eyes, but tears still fell as he tilted his head back.
With one hand held, Ye-eun could only hold him gently with the other hand. When she looked up at him, her eyes began to moisten because of his tears, "I want to cry too when you do this..."
Although he was the one who experienced the tremors in the earthquake zone, this person acted as if he had experienced something extremely terrifying. When he heard Quan Zhilong choking and calling "Ye Eun" again, Ye Eun squeezed his hand and replied softly, "Yes, I'm here."
“Ye-eun.”
"Yeah, I'm here."
The conversation was repeated every one or two minutes, but neither side felt impatient. Because Ye-eun wanted to eat, the hand she was holding changed. Kwon Ji-yong supported his chin with his left hand and looked at Ye-eun intently.
The room was not big but it had the best lighting in the whole house. However, it was already early morning and the natural light outside the window had disappeared, leaving only the warm yellow light in the room shining on us.
Kwon Ji-yong's eyelashes trembled slightly as he watched Yi-eun scoop a spoonful of fish maw soup with a spoon, and he couldn't help but tighten his grip on her hand a little more.
"Do you want to eat it?" Ye-eun looked up and said seriously, "It's super delicious."
Kwon Ji-yong shook his head silently, but when Yi-eun scooped a spoonful in front of him with an "ah" sound, he silently opened his mouth and held one side of the spoon.
The sweet and sticky fish maw melted in the mouth. After Kwon Ji-yong swallowed it, Yi-eun scooped another spoonful and put it into his mouth.
The person who said he didn't want to eat, actually ate a whole bowl after Yeen fed him.
"Is it delicious?" She looked at Quan Zhilong and asked again.
Quan Zhilong stared at her and nodded.
Yien's eyes curved, she stacked the two empty bowls in front of her, stood up with the bowls, and said, "Come with me to the kitchen."
Seeing the two walking out hand in hand, Li Zhen hurriedly took the bowl from Yi Eun's hand and put it into Jin Hejun's hand. She glanced at Quan Zhilong who was standing behind her daughter, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart. It must be a bad feeling to be suddenly disconnected because of the earthquake while talking to Yi Eun on the phone.
Li Zhen patted Ye Eun’s hand, “Go to bed soon after you finish eating.”
"Okay, you guys should go to bed soon too." Ye Eun waved to Jin Hejun who walked to the kitchen to take a shower, "Thank you, mom and dad."
"Yes." Jin Hejun lowered his head to wash the dishes, pretending nothing had happened, but he couldn't help but feel his eyes moist. He had just experienced such a scary thing, but he still cared about him so much.
Your own daughter is the best daughter in the world! He wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. His daughter, who had been well-behaved since childhood, would become the most caring one when she grew up.
Li Zhen couldn't help but shook his head when he saw his expression, and said to Yi Eun, "Go back quickly, he's embarrassed to cry if you stay here."
Yien narrowed her eyes and nodded.
Returning to the room, Yi Eun closed the door and looked at Quan Zhilong helplessly: "I want to take a shower."
Quan Zhilong pursed his lips and nodded: "Go ahead and take a shower. I'll join you."
"..." Ye Eun puffed her lips and closed her eyes. However, seeing how Quan Zhilong was afraid that she would disappear in the blink of an eye, she couldn't help but mutter while taking clothes from the closet, "Okay, okay, let's go together."
They almost took the most difficult bath holding hands. When Ye Eun stretched out her hand and let Kwon Ji Yong put on her pajamas, she secretly smiled in her pajamas. Although she felt sorry for his frightened look, this clingy puppy look was too cute.
And when Kwon Ji-yong held his injured foot with tears in his eyes and lowered his head, Yi-eun widened her eyes in horror, suddenly pulled her foot back, and kissed... kissed the instep! ? What a clingy little dog! This is a mad dog.
She quickly knelt up and put her feet under her buttocks. Looking at Quan Zhilong with a wronged face, she was a little worried: "It's over. He is really scared."
Quan Zhilong did not refute, but knelt down opposite her, held her hand again, and whispered as he lowered his eyes: "You can accompany me when I go to work tomorrow."
"..." Ye-eun, who wanted to stay in bed at home, looked at his appearance and said hesitantly: "Going to record?"
"Yeah." Kwon Ji-yong lowered his eyes, and couldn't help but change the hand holding Yi-eun into a clenched position. He raised her hand in front of his eyes, touched her fingertips with his lips, and slowly kissed from the fingertips to the back of her hand.
It was a kiss without any trace of lust, just to confirm the other person's existence and kiss every inch of her skin on her hand.
Ye-eun sighed, feeling the wetness on the back of her hand, and nodded, “Okay, I’ll sleep at the company then.”
After getting her consent, Kwon Ji-yong finally smiled. He lay down and hugged Yi-eun tightly, resting his chin on her neck, clamping her with his legs, and holding Yi-eun's waist tightly with both hands.
“Ye-eun.”
"Yeah, I'm here." When Yi Eun heard Kwon Ji-yong's voice, she looked up dazedly. He was looking down at her seriously and attentively.
Aren’t you sleepy?
She rubbed his face and whispered, "Close your eyes and go to sleep."
Quan Zhilong pursed his lips and responded softly, but still did not close his eyes.
His eyes didn't even move away. Yi Eun sighed in her heart, raised her head and kissed his lips gently. Quan Zhilong was stunned for a moment, but his body unconsciously moved closer to her.
The gentle kiss was even more cautious than the first time they kissed. It was like being kissed like a porcelain doll. His nose rubbed against hers slightly, and when their lips touched, he just gently licked her lower lip with the tip of his tongue.
She had clearly just experienced an earthquake, but when she noticed his cautiousness, her heart felt as if it had experienced a miniature avalanche. The soft collapse in her heart made Ye-en feel dazed.
His love was like his gentle kiss, full of piety and endless temptation. It was like a feather brushing gently over my heart. In between kisses, Ye-eun couldn't help but whisper, "Don't think too much, don't worry, I will always be by your side."
Outsiders may think that Kwon Ji-yong is a confident and arrogant person, but Ye-eun knows that his arrogance is only in his music.
He is a sensitive and delicate person by nature, and in this line of work he has been following the instructions of adults since he was a child. His insecurity is not usually obvious, but this time it completely erupted.
Yi Eun looked up at Quan Zhilong and curved her eyes: "Don't you dare to close your eyes?"
Quan Zhilong nodded, his voice choked with sobs: "I'm afraid you will suddenly disappear again."
Just like when she suddenly disappeared in front of him while he was on the phone, he could only wait and pray in confusion.
"Since you don't want to sleep, then get up and play." Yien looked up at him and thought for a moment. She thought that she would be able to sleep after playing for a while.
The boxes that contained the toys she had hidden when she was a child were all moved to the new home intact. Ye-eun lowered her head and flipped through the big box with one hand. When she saw the Famicom and a pile of game discs next to it, her eyes lit up, "Is this still usable?"
Quan Zhilong took a look at the red and white console, raised his hand to plug it in, lowered his head and fiddled with it with one hand for a while, but something went wrong and it just wouldn't work.
Ye-eun said hesitantly, “How about you let go and string it together first?”
Almost immediately, Quan Zhilong put down his hands that were fiddling with the game, and pursed his lips as if to say, "Then I won't play anymore."
Yien shook her head helplessly, "Okay, okay, I'll hold this side and you hold that side."
When the picture appeared on the screen of the Famicom again, Yeen put the controller on the ground in surprise, stretched out a finger and pressed the button, and the picture on the screen moved accordingly.
"It's not broken!" Ye-eun was surprised. The game console from more than ten years ago can still be used. Nintendo's quality is still good. "What are you playing?"
She adjusted the screen, and the scene of the two playing games in their childhood seemed to reappear. Quan Zhilong finally began to shift his attention away from Yi Eun: "Pokemon."
He whispered, "Same birthday as yours."
Ye-eun nodded in agreement, “Okay, let’s play Pokémon then!”
She thought confidently that the game that she couldn't beat with both hands when she was a child, she could solve it with one hand when she grew up!
However, when the Pikachu controlled by Ye-en rushed forward as if it had a limp, and was even killed in one move when encountering an enemy, Ye-en looked at the gray scene on the screen with a grim face.
Quan Zhilong couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth slightly. It was just the same as when he was a child.
Ye-eun noticed his expression and breathed a sigh of relief, but pretended to be angry: "Yeah, it must be because I don't have enough hands. If I had two hands, I would definitely win!"
"..." Quan Zhilong looked up at her, then sincerely stretched out his right hand and placed it on her handle, "Play like this."
I felt like my hands were about to stick to his, with the controller placed between the two of them, Ye-eun controlling a few buttons with her left hand, and Kwon Ji-yong controlling the other buttons with his right hand. Kwon Ji-yong was so stubborn that he didn't even want to give up his hands, but he listened to Ye-eun's commands very obediently.
"Go, go, go, that's right! Hit it!" Ye-eun stared at the screen excitedly with a serious look in her eyes, "Let's use our skills together, quick, quick, quick!"
Quan Zhilong pursed his lips and controlled the buttons with his right hand. He knew in his heart that he should step back instead of rushing forward, but he still obediently pressed the buttons to activate the skill.
Sure enough, the blue bar that I had been saving for a long time was empty, but I didn't hit the enemy at all...
Ye-eun sighed, a little annoyed, “There’s something wrong with this game!”
"Or... let me take charge?" Kwon Ji-yong hesitated, afraid that Yi-eun would think he was making fun of her and get angry.
If it were any other time, Ye-eun would definitely compete with Kwon Ji-yong for control, but given Kwon Ji-yong's condition today, Ye-eun was more than happy for him to say more.
She nodded immediately: "Okay! Take me with you!"
"Ye'en, go to the left." Kwon Ji-yong commanded calmly. When Yi'en found that his battle choices were different from hers every time, she pressed the buttons tacitly, but couldn't help but complain in her heart, because every step was different from the choices she made!
That’s too much! The red "Win" on the screen seemed to be mocking her. Ye-eun pouted and looked aggrieved: "Is it really my tactics? I don't believe it. Let's try again!"
Quan Zhilong nodded and curved his eyes.
It was not until nine o'clock in the morning that Li Zhen, who vaguely heard the sound coming from her daughter's room, knocked on the door with some confusion and asked in a low voice: "Ye'en, Zhilong, are you awake?"
The room immediately became quiet, and then there was a crackling sound.
Isn't it going to be an all-nighter? Li Zhen was angry but couldn't help but feel amused, so she pressed the doorknob directly. As expected, as soon as the door opened, she saw two children in pajamas holding hands, rubbing their eyes and looking at her as if they had just woken up.
"Mom, what's wrong? Is it time to get up?" Yeen rubbed her eyes with her left hand and even yawned pretentiously.
And Quan Zhilong couldn't help but open his mouth because of Yien's yawn. He raised his hand and covered his mouth with his right hand, and said vaguely: "Good morning, aunt."
Li Zhen rolled her eyes and glanced at the game consoles that were piled up in boxes. She really wanted to go back to when the two children were little and beat them up. "Stop pretending. Since you're not asleep yet, get up now and have breakfast before going to sleep!"
"Inside..." The two nodded obediently. Kwon Ji-yong, who was sleeping outside, took Yi-eun under the bed. Li Zhen looked at their awkward postures and couldn't help but feel shocked.
"Are your hands stuck with glue?" Li Zhen glanced at Quan Zhilong. She knew her child's personality quite well. She was a carefree girl. She cried and broke down on the first day, but she would feel much better after a good night's sleep.
It’s just like the human-machine that my husband researched that can automatically clear away negative emotions. Li Zhen complained inwardly.
As expected, Yi-eun raised her hand and waved it in front of Li Zhen as if to show off, "Zhilong brand glue, you must be envious."
"Envy? You've never seen your dad being so clingy." Li Zhen raised her hand to straighten her daughter's clothes, feeling both amused and sad. "Go away, let me see how you wash up."
Being stared at by his aunt while brushing his teeth and washing his face, Kwon Ji-yong couldn't help feeling a little shy, but he never let go of Ye-eun's hand.
Ye-eun took the toothbrush and put it under the toothpaste in Quan Zhilong's hand. The toothpaste stuck to the toothbrush smoothly. "Hey, isn't it great?"
She looked at her mother and raised her eyebrows, "Mom, please don't underestimate the tacit understanding we have had over the years!"
Li Zhen was finally annoyed by her daughter. After turning around and leaving their room, she couldn't help but smile and shook her head helplessly.
Yien is afraid that she will scold Zhilong. Really, knowing that Zhilong loves Yien so much, she only has gratitude and happiness in her heart, how could she scold that insecure child.
Moreover, when she saw her husband who had already prepared breakfast, she couldn't help but laugh, "Ji Lan should also thank our Yi En, otherwise Zhi Long would have been dumped by so many people for his usual coquettish and funny personality and his quiet personality when he feels insecure."
Jin Hejun agreed with what he heard. Looking at the two children sitting at the table holding hands, he suddenly felt emotional, "They often saw such scenes when they were young."
"It's just... their hands," he hesitated, "are they stuck with glue?"
