Chapter 67: 67. Concern from Seniors
The next day, Liu Xin’an got up early, something he hadn’t done in a while.
After all, he had to be on camera today to shoot a collaborative video, so getting ready was essential.
He had messaged Snow Cat the night before to set up a suitable time.
Unexpectedly, the time was set for today.
It made sense when he thought about it—today was the weekend, and for Snow Cat, who was still a student, the weekends were indeed her freest time.
Since they were shooting a collaborative video together, Liu Xin’an certainly wasn’t going to miss such an opportunity for content.
He grabbed his handheld GoPro, clipped the audio equipment to his collar, and, as a game enthusiast and video blogger, he naturally had all these basic tools ready.
After a quick glance at himself in the lens, Liu Xin’an flashed an awkward smile, and without a word, set out from his home.
In the end, he was just a game blogger, not one of those omnipresent lifestyle vloggers.
Just carrying a camera around in public already made him feel embarrassed, let alone talking to himself... he figured he’d need to find a hole to crawl into.
The voiceover would be done in post-production, or maybe he wouldn’t dub at all, just use BGM and subtitles.
He filmed this mostly to satisfy his recently soared female fanbase, usually once or twice a month was enough.
His main focus was still game-related content.
There wasn’t much to say about the journey. Although he was filming aimlessly with his lens, in this era when personal vlogs are extremely popular, recording one’s life is nothing new.
Moreover, Liu Xin’an was wearing a mask, which helped him hide his attractively handsome face.
So the people on the street just glanced at him.
After finding an apartment building with the address Snow Cat provided, Liu Xin’an hesitated for a few seconds and did not go up immediately, but instead turned and walked into a store nearby.
It must be said, the fruits here were indeed exorbitantly priced.
Even for someone like Liu Xin’an, who made a good amount of money each month from live streaming and video views, eating a large amount of fruit here felt financially burdensome.
But he couldn’t very well show up empty-handed, could he?
And, unsurprisingly, there were already cameras set up by Snow Cat at the entrance.
Being a video blogger like him, and especially one who covered lifestyle and food, how could she miss such great material?
Soon, having bought plenty of fruits, Liu Xin’an entered the apartment building’s elevator, pressed the button for the 8th floor, and the elevator began its slow ascent.
After stepping out of the elevator and considering the high likelihood of appearing on camera, Liu Xin’an took off his mask, revealing his remarkably handsome face.
Today’s outfit was quite ordinary—a dark shirt and trousers, topped with a warm cotton jacket.
As he had mentioned himself, he often didn’t pay much attention to his clothes, and since he was meeting someone other than Bae Juhyun today... he wasn’t too concerned about whether his outfit would be criticized by the viewers or not.
After all, with his height and face, even if Liu Xin’an wore a sack, he could still pull off a sense of fashion.
"Ding dong~"
Soon, the tightly closed door opened, and a camera peeked out, held by a tall, pretty girl with delicate features.
"Wow! Welcome!"
Snow Cat’s real name is Liang Yu, someone he had met a few times at events, and whose name he had learned then.
As for Liu Xin’an, his name had been revealed long ago, thanks partly to Chenglu, the moderator of his live stream room.
"Sorry to disturb... Have you been waiting long?"
Liu Xin’an gave a gentle smile, then embarrassedly pointed at the camera in Snow Cat’s hand and the other few set up behind her.
As a lifestyle vlogger, she definitely knew more about filming equipment than he did—he relied solely on the GoPro in his hand for shooting life vlogs.
"Of course! Ever since I knew you were coming over, I’ve been looking forward to collaborating with you."
When it came to socializing, perhaps ten Liu Xin’ans tied together wouldn’t match up to one Snow Cat, so she quickly took control of the recording rhythm.
Liu Xin’an honestly answered questions, occasionally giving some decent reactions.
He felt he had tried his best.

At this time, Bae Juhyun and her group had also left home early and arrived at the company’s practice room.
But the morning practice had just ended when Kang Seulgi noticed something off about Bae Juhyun.
Although it was common for Juhyun to always be flipping through her phone, usually she was caught up in some funny video or comments.
But today was different. From her angle, Seulgi could clearly see that Juhyun was constantly checking a messaging app.
Who else could make Juhyun so eager and anxious, if not the guy currently living next door to her?
What puzzled her even more was that Juhyun had been so excited when she returned from Liu Xin’an’s place yesterday, so how could she have become... so insecure overnight?
Before Seulgi could lean in to ask, their practice room door was suddenly knocked.
Bae Juhyun put away her phone and looked toward the door.
"Who is it?"
"May I come in?"
The familiar voice made everyone in the practice room straighten up; they were certainly familiar with it, as the person standing outside was none other than their mentor who had led them during their debut years.
"Of course, you can."
The door opened, and two petite but immensely charismatic beautiful women walked in.
"Oh! Everyone’s here."
Kim Taeyeon entered, looked at the girls in the practice room, and laughed in surprise.
Following her, Lee Soongyu was holding a pizza.
During this family concert, the seniors of Girls’ Generation were bound to perform as well.
As for why they appeared here at this time... it was simply a casual visit during lunchtime.
Everyone was familiar with each other, so there was no need for formal greetings or reception, and Lee Soongyu, who was holding the pizza, was quickly swarmed by the girls eager for a bite.
Amidst Lee Soongyu’s laughing and scolding, the pizza meant for them was quickly divided up and finished.
For five people, one pizza of that size wasn’t really enough.
Bae Juhyun also smiled, took a piece, and sat aside nibbling on it.
"How is it? Feeling a lot of pressure?"
The voice of Kim Taeyeon made Bae Juhyun, who was eating her pizza, startle; she turned around subconsciously to look at her beautiful senior, who was similar in stature, and nodded with a smile.
"It’s okay, but manageable."
"Oh, you’re adjusting well. Last time I saw you, you seemed quite distressed."
As an artist who had also experienced dark times, the challenges Kim Taeyeon’s group faced in their early days were far more terrifying than what Bae Juhyun was currently facing.
But... in some sense, her pressure wasn’t as great as Bae Juhyun’s.
Back then, their challenges were shared among nine people, while now Bae Juhyun had to bear more on her own.
So seeing Bae Juhyun now being able to cheer up, Kim Taeyeon, as a senior and a close sister, was very reassured.
"Now that I finally have activities, I definitely can’t stay pessimistic."
"That’s the spirit."
Kim Taeyeon slapped Bae Juhyun’s shoulder in a carefree manner; being two years older than Bae Juhyun, it was natural for her to act like a big sister.
Soon, the two seniors who had come specially to cheer them up left amidst laughter and talks, leaving only the five of them in the practice room again.
Of course, they couldn’t resume practice immediately after eating, and Kang Seulgi hadn’t forgotten what had just occurred, so she quickly made her way over to Bae Juhyun.
Meanwhile, Bae Juhyun was again looking down at her phone, checking if Liu Xin’an had sent her any messages.
"Juhyun unnie."
Kang Seulgi’s voice startled Bae Juhyun, who hurriedly turned off her phone, took a few steps back, and then stared at Kang Seulgi who had suddenly spoken up.
"You startled me, what’s up?"
"What are you looking at? You’ve been on your phone continuously."
Kang Seulgi thought the two might be having some issues and tried to coax more information out of her tactfully.
However, to her surprise, hearing this, Bae Juhyun sighed deeply, a look of dissatisfaction on her face.
"I’m waiting for that guy Liu Xin’an to text me."
"Huh? What’s there to wait for? If he sees it, he’ll definitely text you, right?"
"No, today he has to work and film a video with another woman."
Bae Juhyun briefly explained why she was so worried, and although she’d boastfully claimed her magnanimity the day before, her actual mood was sour as could be.
"What? You agreed?" Kang Seulgi exclaimed in disbelief, and her raised voice drew the attention of the other three girls chatting nearby.
Subsequently, under Bae Juhyun’s furious glare, she was surrounded by her gossiping younger sisters.
The dignity of an older sister isn’t very useful against gossip.
So reluctantly, Bae Juhyun ended up explaining the situation to her sisters.
It wasn’t that she didn’t trust Liu Xin’an, she was just genuinely feeling petulant.
Was it a fit of jealousy?
She was eager to know what exactly Liu Xin’an was doing at the moment; that jerk knew she would care and yet hadn’t sent her a single message.
It seemed that when she got home later that evening, she would have to properly punish him!
