Chapter 101: 101. Bae Juhyun inexplicably lost to Kang Seulgi (Thanks to the great Alliance Hierarch Yang Yi’er! 1/10)

Having changed out of the white T-shirt and jeans she wore at the concert, Bae Juhyun, dressed all in black, pushed open the door to Liu Xin’an’s house again.

However, before she had even changed into slippers to enter, a very familiar "auntie-like" laughter made her blood rush to her head.

Bae Juhyun’s entire face turned red, and she didn’t know if it was from anger or embarrassment.

As the owner of that "auntie laugh"... how could she possibly not recognize her own voice?

This laugh had been dug up and ridiculed by her members and fans more than once, and before she had revealed her identity, Bae Juhyun had never thought her "dark past" would be seen by Liu Xin’an in such a manner.

But now things were different.

"Ahhhhh!!!"

The furious Bae Juhyun, abandoning her previously cool goddess demeanor, stormed into the living room.

This genuinely scared Liu Xin’an, who was cheerfully watching his girlfriend’s "funny moments."

Liu Xin’an swore that he had merely casually searched for "Bae Juhyun" on some small platform.

Then out came a huge — bunch of videos about his girlfriend’s beauty.

Honestly, seeing the screen filled with words like "wife" and "husband," Liu Xin’an scoffed.

— Now their wife was his girlfriend! He could even hold these people’s wife!

This sense of achievement made Liu Xin’an extremely confident, and after watching for a while, Liu Xin’an, not sure how, clicked on a video titled "Bae Juhyun, a female idol who dominated the trending searches with a two-minute silly auntie laugh."

Then... That bewitching laugh sounded in the room.

The video was simple, just Bae Juhyun, Kang Seulgi, and another girl he hadn’t seen before, sitting in a room eating.

Following that, Bae Juhyun’s laughter never stopped.

"Hahahaha...hahaha."

In the video, Bae Juhyun’s laughter continued, and Liu Xin’an, lying on the sofa, awkwardly lifted his head and gave an awkward smile towards Bae Juhyun, who wore a horrified expression.

"Juhyun..."

"Hahahaha~"

His guilty voice intertwined with the demonic laughter from the phone, completely turning the blushing Bae Juhyun stern.

"You! Let’s... die together!!"

It was too late to crawl into a crack in the ground; Bae Juhyun felt it was either her death or his that day.

Either way, one of them had to die.

"No, no... ah!"

"Die, die, die!"

———

Of course, killing Liu Xin’an was not an easy thing to do, and Bae Juhyun herself hadn’t had enough of life either.

So, the "die together" plan temporarily ended in failure.

Bae Juhyun scowled, holding Liu Xin’an’s phone in her hand.

And Liu Xin’an sat beside her, aggrieved, massaging his arm that had been aggressively hammered by her.

"How can we get this video taken down!"

"Uhh... why take it down, 200 thousand views..." his voice grew softer under his girlfriend’s cold glare, and eventually, he coughed, "It’s not that easy, you’d have to report it for copyright infringement or something to get it taken down."

"Oh, then I’ll tell the company."

Bae Juhyun was really anxious, her dark past was something the fans might overlook, but now exposed in front of her boyfriend... it truly unsettled her.

Who wouldn’t always want to maintain a beautiful image in their boyfriend’s heart?

What was this then?

Image?

Did she really still have an image in front of this jerk?

Seeing that Bae Juhyun was really about to pull out her phone and call the company, Liu Xin’an quickly moved closer and hugged his already furious girlfriend.

"Be reasonable, Juhyun. If the fans like it, let them watch, otherwise wouldn’t it seem like you’re being petty."

"...You’re calling me petty!"

Okay, arguing with a woman who was out of her mind was indeed a foolish act, as Liu Xin’an had just demonstrated.

But luckily, he still managed to stop Bae Juhyun from actually making the call to the company.

After grabbing his girlfriend’s phone and placing it aside, Liu Xin’an spoke more soothingly, "Isn’t this just the fans loving you? Over 200 thousand views already prove everything, don’t you think?"

"Are you sure this is what my loving fans did?"

"Uhh... ever heard the saying ’one fan outweighs ten haters’? What’s this in comparison? There’s even a ghost-edit video of me with ten million views on our site."

Liu Xin’an innocently spread his hands; that time, he was live streaming a horror game, which probably was too much of a good show, so some clips got edited and turned into a ghost video.

Well, it went viral.

Though Liu Xin’an didn’t want to go viral that way...

"Ghost video?"

Calmed by Liu Xin’an’s words, her anger cooled considerably.

And that strange term in Liu Xin’an’s words puzzled her.

"Uhh... it’s like a spoof video."

"Really? Ten million?"

"Yep."

"Let me see it!"

Liu Xin’an shrugged; unlike Bae Juhyun who couldn’t take a joke and cared deeply about her image, he didn’t mind, especially since the ghost video was actually very well made. Otherwise, how could it have gotten ten million views?

Soon after watching the video, Bae Juhyun pursed her lips, feeling that her laughter video was still more embarrassing.

But the sober her didn’t continue to irrationally demand the company to report and take down the video—a foolish thing to do.

After all, similar videos piled up on YouTube... and you could never report them all.

This "interesting" group of fans really wore Bae Juhyun out.

She lethargically lay on the sofa, letting her beautiful long hair spread over her, staring blankly at the ceiling.

It was over.

Her image was completely gone.

By now in Liu Xin’an’s heart, she must definitely be a mad woman.

"Juhyun?"

"Let me be."

"Are you still eating dinner then?"

"Yes, why wouldn’t I?"

Liu Xin’an fell silent. Was this being quiet?

Knowing that Bae Juhyun was feeling down, Liu Xin’an wasn’t foolish enough to touch on the girl’s sore spot, but instead took out his phone, agonizing over what to have for dinner.

As he mulled over it, Liu Xin’an suddenly felt his shoulder sink.

The unique fragrance belonging to Bae Juhyun gradually wafted to his nostrils, he turned around, and sure enough, saw Bae Juhyun’s beautiful face up close.

Leaning over to also see what takeout was available, Bae Juhyun was resting her chin on Liu Xin’an’s shoulder, and upon realizing her boyfriend was looking at her, she flashed a stunning smile.

"What is it?"

"Muah~"

"Ah!"

After Liu Xin’an unconsciously kissed the girl’s cheek, he also froze. It was purely a reflexive reaction, and he could only blame Bae Juhyun for throwing herself at him without any sense of crisis.

"Um...I can explain."

"Hmm." Bae Juhyun scoffed lightly and gently patted the other’s back, thus expressing her dissatisfaction. "I want Chinese food."

Relieved by his girlfriend’s forgiving nature, Liu Xin’an then cheerfully agreed to Bae Juhyun’s request. It was just Chinese food after all—order it!

Making money was precisely for moments like this.

"Um...speaking of which, since you’re a celebrity, did Taeyeon and Sunny know about my situation all along during that livestream with the Girls’ Generation members?"

Bae Juhyun nodded, not hiding the truth.

"I had asked both Taeyeon and Sunny to take care of you, and simultaneously asked them not to reveal my identity."

"Ah...so you all knew from the beginning?"

Feeling guilty, Bae Juhyun stuck out her tongue and then, seeking to please, clung to Liu Xin’an’s arm, looking up at him pitifully, "You’re not mad, are you~"

"Just feel a bit embarrassed."

"Pfft...yeah, Mr. Five Million Followers."

The comment left Liu Xin’an’s face flushing, and he quickly reached to cover her mouth, fearing more embarrassing remarks might slip out from her lips.

He had just seen Bae Juhyun’s Instagram...

That 10 million followers count was nearly swelling his face.

Unable to dodge, Bae Juhyun with Liu Xin’an covering her mouth, still seemingly had something she wanted to say through her sobs.

Liu Xin’an narrowed his eyes, pretending to look fierce.

"Keep teasing me, and I’ll be less than polite."

Less than polite? Honestly, Bae Juhyun was quite curious about how this scaredy-cat would handle being less than polite.

But considering her man’s skin was thinner than paper, she ultimately decided to spare him some face.

"Don’t be shy, Seulgi is way more embarrassing than you."

Indeed, in this romance, the gainers were the two of them.

After all, both she and Liu Xin’an had harvested sweet love.

But in this world, what victories come without sacrifices?

Poor Kang Seulgi was the sacrifice in her and Liu Xin’an’s romance.

"Seulgi? Why?"

"...You remember what you said during the livestream with Taeyeon and the others? ’Seulgi is a huge fan of both,’ That comment is still being used to tease Seulgi by Taeyeon."

Bae Juhyun covered her mouth and giggled lightly. She dared not reveal her true laughter, at least not until Liu Xin’an had forgotten about that video. She wouldn’t laugh so freely!

Reminded by Bae Juhyun, Liu Xin’an too recalled that day’s incident.

Subsequently, he too couldn’t help but chuckle.

"Is Seulgi okay?"

"She seems a bit numb to it now."

"...let’s invite her for a meal some time, it’d be good to get to know her again, I originally thought you were just ordinary company employees, thinking about it now I was really stupid, what company hires so many beautiful women all at once."

The self-deprecating Liu Xin’an made Bae Juhyun feel somewhat mixed inside.

"Stop it, I realize my mistake."

"It’s not your fault, don’t think too much."

Bae Juhyun’s reassurance settled her, and she looked up at Liu Xin’an: "Are you inviting us for a meal?"

"Of course, might as well invite all your members, just to get acquainted... If it’s inconvenient to come to my place, your place is fine too."

"Really?"

"Yeah, why, is it inconvenient for you?"

Bae Juhyun shook her head. It wasn’t exactly inconvenient; she just hadn’t expected to have to bring it up since Liu Xin’an had already done so himself.

"I’ll need to coordinate the timing. They are busier than I am."

"So you won’t be working for a while now?"

Bae Juhyun nodded and settled back on the sofa after lying back down, lazily laying her legs over Liu Xin’an’s. The glimpse of pale skin between her black pants and white socks briefly emptied Liu Xin’an’s mind.

"It’ll probably last quite a while, so I want to accompany you to that awards show you mentioned last time."

Liu Xin’an was taken aback, instinctively looking towards Bae Juhyun lying on the sofa.

"You’re coming with me?"

"Yeah, didn’t you invite me before?"

"...No, I’ll go by myself, don’t come with me."

Liu Xin’an shook his head, firmly refusing, a response that surprised Bae Juhyun.

Of course, had Kang Seulgi been there, she would have excitedly slapped the sofa, exclaiming something like "I told you so!"

It seemed, to some extent, Bae Juhyun didn’t understand her boyfriend as well as Kang Seulgi did.
