Chapter 211: 184. "Surprise~" (Please subscribe! Vote for monthly tickets!)_2

"I... um... because it’s hard to take leave from the company..."

Afraid that Park Jinsuk might not approve of her profession, Bae Juhyun stammered as she spoke.

Fortunately, Park Jinsuk wasn’t someone who looked down on entertainers.

She took the kettle from the table, poured a cup of water for the nervous girl in front of her, and handed it to her, indicating she should take her time to speak.

"No rush, I have no prejudice against the profession of an entertainer, Juhyun, you don’t need to be nervous."

"Um... thank you, Auntie." Whether or not Park Jinsuk meant what she said, at least Bae Juhyun felt much more at ease, "My relationship with Xin’an is still unknown to the company, so I have no good reason to take leave and come to China..."

"Then how did you manage to come this time, did you confess to the company?"

"No, Chenglu helped me."

"Ah, that kid Chenglu, I always said Chenglu was more capable than you. Look at you, playing games in front of the computer all day, what kind of behavior is that? You can’t even help Juhyun with this simple matter!"

"Oh, please, don’t use your outdated mindset to judge my work. I make money, don’t I?"

"Then why couldn’t you solve Juhyun’s problem?"

"Uh... there was nothing I could do, I’m just a mildly popular influencer in the country."

"Useless!"

Liu Xin’an grinned helplessly at his mom’s criticism, while Bae Juhyun pressed her lips together, trying not to laugh.

It seemed she had discovered a new side of Liu Xin’an that she rarely saw, a side of him that was helpless in front of his mother.

"Auntie, you can’t blame Xin’an, his job isn’t really related to mine..."

"Then he should find a way to make his job relate to yours." Park Jinsuk replied without hesitation.

This response left Bae Juhyun stunned.

Before coming, she had mentally prepared herself for many scenarios, even how she would respond if Liu Xin’an’s parents asked her to quit being an entertainer.

What she hadn’t expected was that this beautiful woman from the same country as her didn’t show any of their country’s stereotypical biases against entertainers.

On the contrary, she even encouraged Liu Xin’an to work hard to help her...

This answer deeply moved her.

As for Liu Xin’an beside her... he simply nodded and didn’t refute.

What he was working hard on now was preparing to help Bae Juhyun in the future.

Not being able to help Bae Juhyun this time had left him, as her boyfriend, feeling ashamed.

He didn’t like this feeling, so without needing his parents to say anything, he was already trying his hardest to do his best for her.

———

Bae Juhyun’s visit was quite sudden, and this was at Liu Xin’an’s home after all.

At this moment, Bae Juhyun stood at the door of Liu Xin’an’s bedroom, holding her suitcase, her face flushed.

Standing next to her were Liu Xin’an, who also seemed a bit embarrassed, and Li Chenglu, who had a face full of excitement.

Li Chenglu had gradually come to accept their relationship.

When she thought about it, it made sense. Considering her favorite idol would end up with someone she didn’t know at all, it felt better to hand Bae Juhyun over to the familiar Liu Xin’an.

At least she had peace of mind.

"For now, you’ll have to sleep in Xin’an’s room. Xin’an, you’ll sleep on the sofa downstairs and give your room to Juhyun."

Park Jinsuk, carrying a quilt, smiled brighly at Bae Juhyun, then winked at her son meaningfully.

She was practically shouting "assist" from her expression.

What she didn’t know was that these two had been sleeping together every night already...

"I...can..."

"I don’t mind..." Bae Juhyun gently tugged on Liu Xin’an’s arm to stop him, her face flushed, whispering her agreement.

Even though she was shy...

And nervous...

And knew she probably shouldn’t say such things in Liu Xin’an’s home...

She really missed his embrace.

All those nerves and shyness couldn’t compare to the warmth of Liu Xin’an’s hug.

As long as she could be in his arms, nothing else mattered.

Bae Juhyun’s courage warmed Liu Xin’an’s heart, and he held her hand tightly, taking the quilt from his mom: "Enough, you go to bed early, don’t worry about us."

"Fine, then..."

"Stop, go downstairs."

Liu Xin’an raised a hand to stop his mom from making an even more provocative remark.

He was afraid she might say something like "use protection," making Bae Juhyun faint on the spot.

"Alright, alright, new toiletries are in the bathroom, and towels are ready. Xin’an, show Juhyun where everything is and get some rest, you have to get up early tomorrow."

"Got it."

Park Jinsuk finally left, allowing Bae Juhyun to relax visibly. She secretly unclenched her right hand, which had been sweating from tension, and rubbed it on her pants.

She had really been nervous to the point of perspiring.

Luckily, not her left hand.

Liu Xin’an’s room didn’t look any different from how she had seen it during video calls.

She spun around, inspecting the room, and her gaze finally locked on the bookshelf.

She saw something she was very curious about.

That photo album.

The one she had longed to see.

If there were no surprises, it would likely contain photos from Liu Xin’an’s past.

But now wasn’t the time to be rash; after all, Liu Xin’an had shown strong resistance to the idea during their video calls.

Right, even if she was going to look... it would have to be when Liu Xin’an wasn’t around.

Since she planned to stay here for at least a week, there would be plenty of opportunities.

No need to rush.

"Xin’an, are you sleeping on the floor?"

Li Chenglu walked into the room in her pajamas, looking excitedly at Liu Xin’an.

"...Why aren’t you sleeping? Why are you here?"

"Because it’s rare for Irene to visit, isn’t it too early for bed?"

Li Chenglu looked at Bae Juhyun expectantly.

Bae Juhyun appreciated Li Chenglu’s help in getting her to China, but...

She shook her head and yawned.

Now that Liu Xin’an was the only person she could see, Li Chenglu was no longer her "idol."

She was just their third wheel now.

"Sorry, Chenglu, I’m really tired, I want to rest."

"Uh... alright then, I’ll show you around tomorrow. Besides, this guy needs to get up early, so I won’t bother you two tonight."

Li Chenglu shrugged, smiling sweetly, and then left the room, thoughtfully closing the door behind her.

With a "bang," the door closed.

At that same moment, Liu Xin’an felt a sweet fragrance rush at him, and a soft sensation enveloped him.

"Xin’an... Xin’an..."

Unable to contain her longing any longer, Bae Juhyun hugged him tightly, her pink lips whispering his name.

She wasn’t the only one missing him.

Liu Xin’an hugged her back just as tightly.

Words were no longer needed; they just held each other close.

After a while, Bae Juhyun, feeling familiar again, looked up at him with a sweet smile.

"Surprise~" (Surprise)

She had intended to jump out and say this to Liu Xin’an the moment she saw him.

Well... things didn’t go as planned.

Her cute expression made Liu Xin’an burst into laughter.

The man lowered his head, giving her soft lips a gentle kiss.

The sensation was intoxicating, but fortunately, he wasn’t driven solely by desire.

Well... at least they should brush their teeth first. They had dumplings earlier, and there was still some taste in his mouth.
