Chapter 558: 311. Sharp Agents

Every time Bae Juhyun returned to the hotel after spending the night at Liu Xin’an’s place, it was always a nerve-wracking process.

Especially now with Seong Taekyon back in China, living just one floor below hers.

She walked into the elevator from the first floor and pressed the button for her room’s floor, then anxiously awaited the elevator’s ascent.

Fortunately, the elevator didn’t stop unexpectedly on any floor, nor did she run into Seong Taekyon by some stroke of bad luck.

Bae Juhyun let out a long sigh of relief as she reached her floor without any interruptions.

Great, she had gotten away with it again this time.

Just as she was thinking this, the elevator door opened, and seeing the people in front of her made her expression turn stiff instantly.

Such situations had occurred before; usually, she would just lower her head slightly, pretend she didn’t know anything, and then leave.

She did have some fame, but her petite figure combined with the baseball cap helped her blend in.

For the first time in her thirty years of life, Bae Juhyun felt grateful for being small.

But this time was different.

Because someone had recognized her identity.

Standing at the elevator door was none other than... Im Nayeon, who had just recently returned.

Im Nayeon recognized Bae Juhyun immediately. Others might not, but how could she not?

Similarly, Han Jaeduk also looked surprised, and upon seeing that Bae Juhyun was alone, his surprise turned into astonishment.

"Irene!"

"Ah... Nayeon, you’re back?"

Im Nayeon had been coordinating promotions here, much like Bae Juhyun, but had returned temporarily due to work.

After all, her schedule was always packed, unlike Bae Juhyun, who was practically unemployed...

"Nayeon, are you guys heading to the filming location?"

Bae Juhyun smiled naturally and struck up a conversation with Im Nayeon.

Im Nayeon didn’t find anything strange and nodded, looking curiously at Bae Juhyun.

"Irene, were you out?"

Here it comes!

Bae Juhyun took a deep breath and nodded casually, "Yes, the weather was great, so I went for a walk."

"Oh, it can be really stuffy staying in the hotel all the time. I totally understand."

"Ah! You should go down; I’ll go back and get ready. I need to head to the filming soon too." Bae Juhyun remembered they were still at the elevator door, so she quickly stepped aside to let Han Jaeduk and Im Nayeon enter.

"We’ll head off first then, bye Irene~"

"Bye~"

After waving goodbye with a smile to the lively Im Nayeon, Bae Juhyun let out a long sigh once the elevator door closed.

She was scared to death. If it had been Taekyon who opened the door, she really wouldn’t have been able to explain.

Seong Taekyon was inherently a suspicious person. Her excuse might fool Im Nayeon and her manager, but if it had been Seong Taekyon...

How could he ever believe she’d get up early for a walk?!

If she had the time, her first choice would definitely be to sleep in.

Returning to her room with a feeling of frustration, Bae Juhyun heavily collapsed onto her bed, planning to get more sleep.

It was all Liu Xin’an’s fault!

If it weren’t for that jerk’s comfortable embrace, she would’ve been back way earlier and wouldn’t be coming back at this time.

Yeah, it was all his fault!

With that thought, Miss Bae took out her phone and, in a coquettish manner, started to bombard Liu Xin’an, who had already arrived at the filming site, with messages.

Meanwhile, having taken the elevator to the first floor, Han Jaeduk thoughtfully rubbed his chin.

"Does Irene have a habit of going for morning walks?"

Im Nayeon, who was ready with chopsticks and a spoon, rolled her eyes, "Why are you so interested in Irene’s schedule, Jaeduk?"

"Just curious. I always thought Irene was quite lazy. Nayeon, if it were you, would you get up early for a walk?"

"Um... maybe if I were in a bad mood. Why do you ask?"

"Something feels off, but I can’t pinpoint what."

"If you ask me, Jaeduk, you’re just used to scheming against others all the time."

"What do you mean scheming..." Han Jaeduk shook his head, about to say more when a male voice abruptly interrupted his conversation with Im Nayeon.

"Good morning, Jaeduk, Nayeon."

Carrying a tray, Liu Xin’an placed the tray on the table in front of them, then greeted them with a smile.

Besides Bae Juhyun and Son Seungwan, Han Jaeduk and Im Nayeon were the people Liu Xin’an was closest to.

"Oh, good morning, Xin’an. Why aren’t you at the filming site yet?"

Considering it was already around ten in the morning, Han Jaeduk was surprised. He thought Liu Xin’an would have been at the filming site earlier.

Liu Xin’an was known for his hard work. Normally, their team leaders didn’t have such a heavy workload, and they weren’t the main focus of this shoot.

But without much pressure, Liu Xin’an managed to match the artists’ workload, waking up early, going to bed late, and meticulously preparing everything for the crew’s practice.

Momo often complained to Han Jaeduk and Im Nayeon, and they seemed to have given Liu Xin’an a nickname secretly.

Something like...

"Did ’Man Mom’ sleep in today~" Im Nayeon teased Liu Xin’an with her signature sweet smile.

Which earned her a big eye roll from Liu Xin’an.

"Why did you suddenly call me that?"
