Chapter 425: 266. Psychological Expectations (Thanks to the great illusion feather for the Silver Alliance Hierarch! 2/40)_3
"Are you coming over tonight?"
"No way, hmph!" Bae Juhyun turned around, made a funny face at Liu Xin’an, and then stood up gracefully, leaving him with a beautiful view of her back.
"I’m going to change my clothes."
Liu Xin’an sighed, naturally reluctant to let Bae Juhyun go.
Besides the reluctance, there was another thing that bothered him... Getting two people to play a game together requires two people! Now that Bae Juhyun was leaving, who was he going to play with??
Unfortunately, Miss Bae hadn’t considered that.
After waving goodbye to Liu Xin’an, Bae Juhyun put on her headphones and took the elevator to the basement.
Bae Juhyun drove out of the basement but didn’t go straight to the company. Instead, she first went to a nearby coffee shop she often visited and ordered an iced Americano.
With the coffee in hand, Bae Juhyun sat back in her car and dialed Li Chenglu’s number.
It was almost noon now, and she figured Li Chenglu shouldn’t be too busy.
This was indeed the case.
"Irene? What’s up?"
"Chenglu, are you free now?"
The purpose of this call was, of course, to ask about some things regarding her boyfriend’s father.
"I’m free, what do you want to know?"
"Uh... You know how Seungwan’s going to China for the event this time, right? I don’t really have a chance to go."
"Uh-huh."
"But I do want to go, I just can’t find a convincing reason to tell the company."
"Uh-huh."
Bae Juhyun thought for a moment and finally decided not to beat around the bush and directly asked her biggest confusion.
"Yesterday, I got a call from Uncle. He said he could help me find a suitable reason for me to go too. I wanted to ask... can Uncle really do that?"
After learning this news yesterday, she was both excited and anxious.
Excited that Liu Xin’an’s dad could indeed help her, anxious that this might just be an empty promise...
The waiting period for news was hard to endure, so Bae Juhyun planned to give herself some psychological expectation first.
As for where this expectation would come from... naturally, it was Li Chenglu on the other end of the phone.
Li Chenglu had a somewhat surprised expression after hearing Bae Juhyun’s words.
But soon, she composed her thoughts.
"Ah! Godfather?"
"Yes."
"If it’s Godfather, he can definitely do it."
Li Chenglu’s cheerful response made the coffee-sipping Bae Juhyun widen her eyes.
"Really? What exactly does Uncle do?"
"Hmm... If Liu Xin’an hasn’t told you, I can’t really tell you either. But don’t worry, Godfather really has the capability for this."
Li Chenglu’s calm answer left Bae Juhyun at a loss for words momentarily.
"Does Liu Xin’an know about this too?"
"Huh? He doesn’t. Uncle specifically told me not to tell Xin’an... and you shouldn’t tell Xin’an either, Chenglu."
"Don’t worry, I won’t betray you."
Li Chenglu’s assurance made Bae Juhyun feel much more at ease, though she couldn’t hide her curiosity and cautiously asked, "So, I should just quietly wait for news now?"
"Yes, but even Godfather can’t get you on-screen..."
"Ah! I never thought about that, just being able to go along would make me satisfied."
"In that case, it should be easy. Just wait for the news quietly. Since Godfather decided to help you, your company should contact you today."
"Uh... but will this cause trouble for Uncle?"
Feeling a bit more relieved, Bae Juhyun thought of another possibility.
If Liu Xin’an’s dad really helped her, would the company suddenly notice something?
After all, this was highly suspicious, originally not planning to let her go, but now due to an "unknown" reason, she was going too.
The company would definitely suspect her.
Li Chenglu seemed to understand Bae Juhyun’s implied worry: "Don’t worry about that, Godfather won’t raise suspicion. Helping you won’t make the company suspicious of you."
Being so understood made Bae Juhyun feel a bit embarrassed, her voice lowered, "Thank you, Chenglu."
"Irene, don’t feel pressured. This is a very, very, very small matter for Godfather. You don’t need to feel any burden, just get ready to go to China with Liu Xin’an for the show. I’ll come to visit you guys later~"
"Sure, if you come over, I’ll treat you to a big meal."
"Deal?"
"Uh-huh!"
The call ended, and Bae Juhyun held her phone, somewhat lost in thought.
After a long time, she took a big sip of coffee, then coughed awkwardly.
Hurriedly, she took some tissues from her bag to wipe away the coffee that spilled from the corner of her mouth, then looked at herself in the rearview mirror.
Stop overthinking it. Anyway, she had already been accepted by Uncle and Auntie.
And Uncle and Auntie didn’t show any dissatisfaction with her career, so naturally, she couldn’t think of Liu Xin’an like those notorious second-generation heirs in her country.
She lightly patted her face to wake herself up a bit, then stepped on the gas and drove towards the company.
On the other side, after finishing the call with Bae Juhyun, Li Chenglu immediately called her Godfather.
Bae Juhyun’s worries also concerned her a bit. Bae Juhyun surely had no background, and it would be bad if her Godfather’s help caused S-M to suspect her.
Even though she knew her Godfather’s character well, such things...
Like Bae Juhyun had called her to ask for confirmation, she also needed a definite answer to put her mind at ease.
The busy tone lasted for a while before it was cut off, and Liu Zhengjiang’s steady voice sounded in Li Chenglu’s ear.
"Chenglu."
"Godfather! Have you eaten yet~"
