Picking Up Fragments

Jiang Siming took a moment to glance at the red fragment.

"Picked up [Mastery of Hypnosis] Red Fragment*1 (1/4). The fragment count is insufficient, so it cannot be used for now."

"Now, can you tell me your name?" Jiang Siming asked, holding Lin Yoona with a very satisfied expression.

Lin Yoona's body was soft and supple, a telltale sign of someone who often danced.

Her skin felt cool and comfortable to the touch, and Jiang Siming's hand had unconsciously moved to her waist.

Lin Yoona no longer hid her identity. She removed her mask and cap, revealing her true self.

A delicate face, milk-white skin.

Her innocent, doe-like eyes were clear, her nose soft and well-shaped, and her lips as delicate as flower petals.

Years of dancing had given her a tall, slender yet energetic and curvy figure, like a graceful mermaid.

She was stunningly beautiful and full of charm.

She was the dream girl of countless boys, and in China, Lin Yoona had many nicknames like 'Wife,' 'First Love,' and 'True Love.'

In reality, Lin Yoona's appearance wasn't as photogenic, as she looked much better in person than on screen.

No wonder she had become a star with so many fans—there was a reason for it.

Even Jiang Siming's heart wavered when he saw such an ethereal girl.

To his surprise, it really was Lin Yoona. Jiang Siming felt as if he was seeing things. The coincidences in life were truly remarkable.

A game streamer and a superstar, one from China, the other from Korea, yet they crossed paths—fate truly worked in mysterious ways.

Facing Jiang Siming for the first time with her full face revealed, Lin Yoona couldn't help but feel a bit nervous and blush.

She had already forgotten her superstar identity and status. At this moment, she was just a girl worrying whether the boy in front of her would be happy or disappointed to see her true self.

Meeting at the London docks for the first time, Lin Yoona couldn't have imagined that her life, which she thought might remain single, would change so quickly after meeting Jiang Siming.

Once proud of being single, now she had become a silly girl completely dominated by love.

The two stood at the corner of the London street, the dim streetlight serving as their backdrop.

But the serenity was soon interrupted by Jiang Siming's playful words.

"So, you've been hiding from me this whole time. Don't you trust me? Afraid that if I knew you were a superstar, I'd cling to you?"

Jiang Siming pretended to be angry.

Though it was clearly a joke, Lin Yoona was scared and shook her head repeatedly. She didn't care if he was joking; she was only afraid that Jiang Siming was truly angry.

Perhaps this was the reason Lin Yoona hadn't dated for so many years. Once she was in love, her IQ dropped...

"No, no, it's not that. I just... wanted to surprise you."

Seeing the beautiful woman in his arms so nervous, and recalling her superstar status, Jiang Siming found it hard to control himself.

He kissed Lin Yoona right there on the street.

The sudden 'attack' made Lin Yoona both happy and shy. Happy because Jiang Siming wasn't mad, shy because she had finally given her first kiss to someone she loved.

She had filmed movies and TV shows before, and some scenes required kiss scenes. But no matter how much the director begged or how handsome and considerate the male actor was, she never accepted a kiss scene and always insisted on using camera angles to fake it.

In her subconscious, she believed that she might remain single forever, but perhaps, one day, she would meet someone in some time and space who would win her heart for life.

When that moment came, she wanted to give her first kiss entirely to that person.

Thankfully, she had held onto her belief. And thankfully, she met someone so she wouldn't have to remain lonely...

Gradually, after her initial shyness faded, Lin Yoona began to clumsily respond to the kiss.

Held tightly in Jiang Siming's strong arms, there wasn't a single part of this boy that didn't captivate her. She really liked this feeling.

The two stood there on the street, embracing and kissing. Jiang Siming didn't go any further than that.

Handsome man, beautiful woman—a perfect couple. The scene of them embracing was like something out of a romantic movie.

A passing photographer couldn't help but capture the moment, quietly stepping away as if afraid to disturb the romantic couple.

The photographer had no idea that the picture he had just taken would soon cause a huge sensation in both the Chinese and Korean entertainment worlds.

Lin Yoona dating a Chinese game streamer.

Just hearing the title of the news, one could imagine the controversies that would arise, as if the cries of heartbroken Korean men could already be heard.

However, at this moment, the couple was completely unaware of the public scrutiny that awaited them, completely lost in their own world, blissfully unaware of the pressures soon to come.

After a moment of sweetness, the two walked back to the hotel hand in hand.

Lin Yoona, who had completely opened her heart to Jiang Siming, was smiling non-stop along the way. From time to time, she would act playfully, running into Jiang Siming's arms, pouting, making flirty eyes, or sticking out her tongue.

Her IQ kept dropping, but she didn't even notice.

After escorting Lin Yoona to her hotel, Jiang Siming finally returned to his own hotel.

It wasn't that he didn't want to stay. With an affection level of 87, he could do whatever he wanted.

But it just so happened that Lin Yoona was on her period, so there was no chance to do anything naughty. Jiang Siming had to act as a "gentleman" this time.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

However, they had a day off from the elimination rounds tomorrow, so they agreed to go on a date together.

As for the elimination rounds, Jiang Siming had no interest in watching. It was just a bunch of noobs—none of them were as interesting to him as his Yoona.

The next day, before the sun even rose...

There was a knock on Jiang Siming's hotel door.

Still half asleep, Jiang Siming yawned and opened the door, immediately seeing Lin Yoona, who was all dressed up.

Before arriving, she had been wearing a mask and a hat, but now she had taken them off.

That angelic face, which had already made Jiang Siming's heart burn with desire the night before, was now standing gracefully at his door, her eyes smiling.

"Oppa, time to get up! You promised we'd go out at eight," Lin Yoona said with a playful grin.

"Ah, I overslept. Come inside first, don't let anyone see you," Jiang Siming said as he grabbed her delicate hand and pulled her into the room.

As soon as the door closed, Jiang Siming pinned her against the wall by the door, his face close to hers, staring at her with a mischievous look in his eyes.

Lin Yoona's heart once again began to race uncontrollably. Even though he had just woken up, hadn't washed his face, and his hair looked like a bird's nest, she was still completely captivated by Jiang Siming's appearance.

She had seen many handsome men in the entertainment industry, but in her eyes, none of them compared to her Oppa—they were just ordinary faces.

After a bit of cuddling, Jiang Siming kept his promise and went to brush his teeth and wash his face.

Lin Yoona, not wanting to leave his side, hugged him from behind, following him wherever he went, completely embodying the image of a girl in love.

While Jiang Siming brushed his teeth, she made funny faces behind him, trying to make him laugh.

Even though they had only met in person for less than a day, they were already so sweet and affectionate with each other, like a newlywed couple. It was enough to make anyone jealous!
