Chapter 36
Cha Yoon pressed the submit button after writing his question post. About 10 seconds passed. When no answer appeared, he grew impatient. Why isn’t anyone reading this shit? From that moment, Cha Yoon began refreshing endlessly.
It was after about 80 refreshes in 3 minutes. A notification popped up with a ding.
Knowledge-in
An answer has been posted to “Can someone look at this photo and tell me if there’s an herb good for sleeping?”
Cha Yoon immediately clicked on the notification. There was an answer from someone called Sun God. The combination of plants and sun. His trust level increased.
A
The purple flower that’s third from the right in the photo is “lavender,” which is good for sleep.^^
It’s really difficult for lavender to grow that big, but this one has been grown so well.^^~hehe
I can feel that it’s received a lot of love and care^^.
I hope it helps you sleep well^,^
After reading the answer, Cha Yoon immediately looked for the pot with purple flowers. It was so large that it seemed different from the herbs he knew. Cha Yoon bent down to smell it. A fragrant herb scent brushed his nose. The good smell confirmed that it was indeed lavender, said to help with sleep.
Although it was quite large, he didn’t mind. The bigger, the better effect, right? Nodding, Cha Yoon pressed the accept button and then lifted the heavy lavender pot.
Carrying the pot, Cha Yoon left the terrace and arrived at the door of the room. Uncharacteristically considerate, he carefully opened the door. It was in case Ki Seo-jung might be sleeping.
He peered inside through the door. In the dimly lit, dark room, he could see the silhouette of Ki Seo-jung covered with a blanket. Looks like he’s sleeping without tossing and turning today. He felt somewhat relieved about something that had been bothering him all along.
Cha Yoon entered the room quietly, carrying the lavender he had brought. Looking around, he gently placed the pot in a suitable spot. It was right next to the table between his bed and Ki Seo-jung’s bed. Due to the long stems, he couldn’t see Seo-jung’s face well, but it couldn’t be helped.
“……”
Cha Yoon stood there, looking down at Ki Seo-jung’s face. A face with furrowed brows. Unable to take his eyes off, Cha Yoon reached out and stroked the lavender. The flowers tangled with his fingertips, and the lavender scent clung to them. He brought his scented hand close to Ki Seo-jung’s nose.
Having gone to the trouble of bringing an herb, he hoped Seo-jung would sleep deeply without tossing and turning. As if Cha Yoon’s wish was granted, Seo-jung’s brow unfurrowed, and his expression gradually relaxed.
In the room lit only by a soft mood light, Cha Yoon took in every change in Seo-jung’s expression without blinking. Time passed, enough for the scent on his hand to completely disappear and then some. Cha Yoon slowly pulled his hand away.
When he came to his senses, he felt somewhat embarrassed.
“Really, what kind of roommate is this…”
He muttered such words out loud for no reason. Yet unable to erase his satisfied expression, Cha Yoon soon lay down on his own bed.
As he blinked, looking at the ceiling, something he had forgotten came to mind. Come to think of it, I was really angry at Ki Seo-jung. What am I doing now? Honestly, everything was incomprehensible from start to finish. A night filled with actions he would never have taken normally.
He tried to find reasons for his behavior. But no matter how much he thought, no answer came. He hated complicated, headache-inducing things.
Shit, why am I putting it back now? How petty for a man. He was disappointed about the unauthorized overnight stay, and it was even more vexing that he went on a date with Song Joo-ah, but let’s be generous and let it slide this time. Having reached this conclusion, Cha Yoon closed his eyes.
The fragrance of lavender wafted gently through the room.

Welcome to X-dal, everyone

– So Seo-jung and Joo-ah are starting the first date
– Seo-jung looks tired from staying up all night, why doesn’t he just let Joo-ah drive
⤷ Agreed, Joo-ah is a good driver too
⤷ Seo-jung seems like the type to do it himself rather than asking others, so he’s probably just doing it
– Oh, they’re going all the way to Gangwon-do? That’s quite far
– They’ll probably talk a lot on the way and get closer lol
– Why does Seo-jung driving look so cool even though it’s nothing special;;
⤷ It’s because of his face
⤷ It’s because of his body
⤷⤷ Agreed
– The drone shot shows such a beautiful sky, I want to go on a trip too
⤷ Going out is a hassle, just stick to the live thread
⤷ PD Hyo even flew a drone to show us, where do you think you’re going
⤷⤷ Sigh… okay…
– 700 for them eating roasted potatoes at the rest stop
– I felt it from the first day, but Seo-jung and Joo-ah really suit each other well, they’re exactly the mature couple I imagine
⤷ Agreed
– Oh, they’ve arrived
– Huh?..
– Is the door closed? Out of business?
– Didn’t the production team do a location scout?…
⤷ No way a big show like PTCOMX didn’t check, it must be intentional
– Looking at the subtitles, it seems it was intentional
⤷ The once sparkling amusement park has now become ruins, just like our relationship.. fuck, my heart is breaking
⤷⤷ I can’t
⤷⤷ I feel like I’m going to cry..ㅠㅜㅜㅠ
– I’m single but thinking about my ex makes me sad
⤷ ㅠㅠ What?
⤷ ??
– Maybe it’s because they’re walking silently, but it feels like they’re each lost in their own memories
– But isn’t this place special to Joo-ah? Just looking at the expressions, it seems more meaningful to Seo-jung
⤷ (GIF) OMG Seo-jung’s eyes look so sad, I made a GIF without even realizing
⤷⤷ That’s crazy, I already saved it, can I have permission
⤷⤷⤷ Save first, ask permission later lol
– The first date was successful in its own way, it was quite touching and fun
⤷ Agreed, I watched it without any discomfort and found it enjoyable lol
– This is my first time watching PTCOMX, when do the catfish usually come in?
⤷ It varies by dating show, but in PTCOMX they usually come in around day 7?
⤷ Most of them come in during the first week lol
⤷⤷ I see, thank you!ㅎㅎ
– Wow, Seo-jung’s consideration is amazing until the end
⤷ What? Putting the slippers in front of her? Isn’t that obvious when she’s wearing a skirt?
⤷⤷ More than 90% of guys can’t do such obvious things
⤷⤷⤷ Agreed
– ?? Why is the background music like this again
– It was clearly all rosy pink until just now, why is there suddenly a BGM that sounds like the prelude to war
– Fuck
– Ah
– lololololololololol
– Looking at his eyes, it seems he’s properly angry again
– What’s the problem, seriously ㅠㅠ
– As expected, the Cha demon has returned without dying
– Cha Yoon, stop acting like a demon
Were you born to act like a demon?
Yeah;;
⤷ Yes
– Look at those footsteps, he’s stomping so hard ㄷ ㄷ
⤷ He doesn’t even care that everyone is staring
⤷⤷ That’s consistent with his character though;;
– The funniest thing is that all the cast members have now made it a habit to stay silent when Cha Yoon acts like this ㅠㅠlololololol
⤷ All cast members: It’s Cha time again.. (nods)
– Gasp, shit
– A straight pitch asking if he went on a date with Song Joo-ah, fun
– Aaaaaaaahhhhh!!!!!
– Aak!!!
– A wild boar has entered..
⤷ lololololololololol
– (GIF) Am I the only one going crazy over Cha Yoon grabbing Seo-jung’s shoulder?
⤷ I’m already jumping up and down
⤷ I’ve already done a triple axel, this is so fucking delicious
– The atmosphere is so intense;;
⤷…I can’t even, I feel like I’m walking on eggshells..
⤷ I’m watching the monitor on my knees ㅜㅜ but it’s fun
– Why is Cha Yoon even on this show? I’m genuinely curious
⤷ Seriously, why did he come on?
– Is it right to make such a fuss just because they went on a date.. Just because we call him Cha demon doesn’t mean he can actually act like one
⤷ Right lol; Cha Yoon, going on dates is part of the rules
– Amidst the angry people, I’m just having fun
⤷ I don’t know what’s going on either, but hehehehehe fuck, this love triangle is so delicious
⤷ Everyone’s angry but right now I’m wearing a red mask ㅠlololol
– To be really honest, until now I knew PTCOMX was a hetero dating show, so even if I put on my shipping goggles, I tried not to show it and just went along, you know? But this conversation is too hard to just ignore.. Is it just me who finds Cha Yoon and Seo-jung strange? Is it because I’m gay that this conversation sounds weird to me? Is that.. just what you say to a rival..?
⤷ Cautiously,,,22 It’s not just a little strange, it’s very strange,,,
⤷ 3 Cha Yoon just seems like a little brother upset because his hyung is looking elsewhere
⤷ 4 Is this love triangle the triangle we think it is.. This is my first time eating something so real, I’m a bit shocked
⤷ 55 No, I’m scared because it seems so real now.. I’m not sure if it’s right to talk about this in such a public place.. I think we should talk about Cha-jung in private chats from now on
⤷ Until now I thought they were just joking around, but these guys are seriously real; Do you want to do this while watching a hetero dating show?
⤷⤷ (Link) It’s not a hetero dating show TㅇT Look at this
⤷⤷⤷ Whoa, what’s this link?
⤷⤷⤷ Wait a minute
– Why is this real???
– What’s that link about?
⤷ (Link) See for yourself, fuck, I’m so shocked

Look, from PTCOMX season 1 to 5, there were words ‘Heterosexual Dating Program’ above the PTCOMX logo, right? But in Returns, the word ‘Heterosexual’ is gone. This is it, fuck
