Celebrity Neighbor: My girlfriend is a big star?
Chapter 87. Preparation before Business

Chapter 87: 87. Preparation before Business

Just as Liu Xin’an said.

It was only eight in the morning when Liu Xin’an energetically got out of bed.

It’s not that he was excited because he had the chance to see a beautiful woman...

Making so much money in one afternoon, who wouldn’t be thrilled?

Girls’ Generation?

Super girl group?

To Liu Xin’an, they were just tools for making money! (Referring to Liu Xin’an leveraging their popularity)

Because he got up early enough, Liu Xin’an leisurely made himself a steak for breakfast.

He was very familiar with how to cook a medium-rare steak.

Soon, the savory scent of beef was filling the entire kitchen.

This smell immediately awakened the cravings in Bae Juhyun, who showed up uninvited that morning.

"Wow! It smells amazing, what are you making?"

The sudden female voice behind him startled Liu Xin’an, probably because the sizzling of frying steak was too loud, and he hadn’t even heard her come in.

"Juhyun, you scared me, aren’t you going to the office?"

"I was worried about you; going later is fine too, I want to eat steak as well!"

Bae Juhyun’s eyes lit up when she saw the steak in front of Liu Xin’an, freshly cut.

"Medium-rare, can you handle it?"

"Yes."

Great, the ownership of the chopsticks eventually landed in Bae Juhyun’s hands.

Meanwhile, Liu Xin’an took out another piece of steak from the refrigerator.

For fitness enthusiasts, beef is a good thing.

If you don’t want to eat chicken breast, you can eat more beef... it’s just more expensive.

"Mmm!!" The tender texture of the beef made Bae Juhyun squint her eyes in satisfaction.

"How about a drink?"

Liu Xin’an took out two bottles of peach juice, asking Bae Juhyun.

Naturally, Bae Juhyun wouldn’t refuse.

They chatted and finished breakfast, and soon the topic switched to the business event Liu Xin’an was facing soon.

In the end, he chose the outfit Bae Juhyun picked out for him.

A simple shirt paired with trousers.

But to add some "boy-next-door charm," Bae Juhyun also found a pair of non-prescription round glasses.

However, Liu Xin’an strongly refused them, remembering his father’s advice since childhood that wearing glasses unnecessarily could worsen your eyesight, and he rarely wore glasses.

He wouldn’t wear sunglasses either.

Seeing Liu Xin’an so strongly opposed, Bae Juhyun didn’t insist. She casually put the glasses on herself, which actually added a touch of intellectual beauty to her.

"What time do we go?"

"We leave at eleven, seems like there’s hairstyling and makeup to do, sounds quite bothersome."

Liu Xin’an wasn’t new to makeup; although he didn’t show his face at last year’s Top 100, to prevent accidents like a mask falling off, he had worn makeup under his friend’s influence.

Well, high-end makeup doesn’t really give that suffocating feeling.

So makeup isn’t all that uncomfortable; it’s more about the mental acceptance.

As for the effect... Liu Xin’an didn’t remember much, since he wore a head cover afterwards and was too hot to care about his makeup.

"Oh, don’t complain, you’ll look very handsome when it’s done."

"Rather than not looking handsome, I hate hassle more."

Liu Xin’an, who was stern-faced and unyielding, received a playful punch from Bae Juhyun, making him much more compliant.

"Just listen to what the stylist says and don’t fuss, got it?"

Perhaps because of some painful lessons? Bae Juhyun was very careful in this regard now.

"Oh."

Liu Xin’an nodded obediently, but he couldn’t help laughing soon after.

"What’s so funny?"

"Er... I just find it funny that you’re more careful than me, even though I’m only somewhat a public figure."

"Don’t underestimate it, public opinion can be quite terrifying," Juhyun said, her beautiful eyes hidden behind round glasses deepening with an emotion Xin’an couldn’t quite understand, as she softly instructed.

"Hmm...I know, don’t worry, I’ll be careful with my words for our Juhyun’s sake."

Juhyun’s eyes curved joyfully as she couldn’t help but throw herself into his arms, snuggling comfortably, "Remember to send me a photo after you’re done with the styling, I’ll be watching the live broadcast."

"Can you understand it?"

"You will be interacting with them, won’t you? I’ll be watching."

"Okay."

———

Given that it was a small station here, there were no staff members, so the person coordinating with Xin’an this time had flown in specially from the headquarters in Magic City.

When Xin’an met the person in charge for this job at the agreed apartment, he politely smiled.

"Hello."

"Mr. Anzi really looks much more handsome in person than in videos!"

Perhaps because the person in charge who came this time was also relatively young, there was no awkwardness upon meeting Xin’an.

Familiar hometown dialect and the warm way of interaction made Xin’an, who was slightly socially anxious, feel much more at ease.

He shook hands with the other party, politely expressing his gratitude, "You flatter me."

"Today we’ll trouble Mr. Anzi to help us with translating and hosting. You’re clear on the general process, right?"

"I’m clear, I’ve read the materials. Just tell me anything specific you need."

"Alright, let’s find a place to sit first. Xiao Wu, prepare two cups...does Mr. Anzi drink coffee?"

"Ah? I’m fine with anything."

"Xiao Wu, prepare two cups of coffee and bring them over in a bit."

"Sure thing, Brother Cheng." The assistant named Xiao Wu responded, giving Xin’an a shy smile before quickly slipping out of the room.

There weren’t really any specific details that needed explaining to Xin’an, or perhaps Juhyun had already meticulously prepared him the day before. After a brief chat, the stylist responsible for hair and makeup during this event took Xin’an away.

Well...just like waiting in a barber’s chair, once the stylist seated him, Xin’an inexplicably began to feel sleepy.

It was as if some magic was at work...without realizing it, he felt his eyelids growing heavier.

This won’t do, falling asleep during a business event is too impolite. Xin’an forced himself to perk up, staring at his reflection in the mirror.

After all the fuss from the stylist, honestly... Xin’an didn’t feel there was much of a change.

The makeup here really didn’t suit his style, so after some communication, the stylists simply applied some foundation to prevent Xin’an from looking too dark on camera.

It wasn’t that he was that dark; it’s just that the two celebrities appearing with him were excessively pale...

"Ah, thank you everyone for your hard work today~"

"Hello everyone~"

The arrival of two crisp female voices made everyone present instinctively look towards the door.

Xin’an was no exception as he curiously watched the entrance.

Following that, two women, about as tall as his girlfriend but slightly less stunning from Xin’an’s perspective (Xin’an’s point of view), bowed and walked in from outside.

Having reviewed their profiles, Xin’an recognized the newcomers: Girls’ Generation’s Kim Taeyeon and Lee Soongyu.

Well...more precisely, Taeyeon and Sunny. Juhyun had specifically instructed him the day before not to call Lee Soongyu by her real name, but to call her Sunny instead.

Similarly, filled with curiosity, Kim Taeyeon and Lee Soongyu also took the first moment after entering to look at the handsome man sitting in front of the mirror, observing them.

They had seen the photos of Juhyun and Xin’an together, but Xin’an wasn’t someone particularly photogenic. To put it in other words, the Xin’an they saw in person, with his stature and demeanor, gave off a more reassuring feeling than his photos suggested.

This was a sensation distinctly different from the attractive men in their country, and the moment they saw him, Kim Taeyeon and Lee Soongyu seemed to understand why their "beauty god" colleague was so smitten.

Damn, he really is handsome!

"Hello, you must be Mr. Liu Xin’an, who will be hosting the live stream with us."

Just as Xin’an had received information on Girls’ Generation, Kim Taeyeon and Lee Soongyu had also received Xin’an’s details well in advance.

However, since they weren’t hosts, Xin’an’s information wasn’t particularly helpful to them.

All they needed was to know Xin’an’s name, which would make it easier to call on him during the gaming session.

Looking at the smiling, beautiful woman in front of him, Xin’an nodded and reciprocated with a polite smile.

"Yes, please take care of me today, Miss Taeyeon, Miss Sunny."

"No, no, we are the ones who should be asking for your care, especially since translating is much harder than our tasks. Plus, you also have to join us in games today, so we’ll probably be troubling you."

"Oh please."

"Absolutely not."

The crew members pausing nearby were somewhat baffled.

Why are these three...so polite?
