Because it was a very solemn occasion, Bae Zhuhyun and others chose extremely conservative and serious outfits for the banquet.
Pulling up her smooth black hair, Pei Zhuhyun put on a suit jacket, a pure white shirt, and a pair of slim-fitting khaki wide-leg pants, paired with a pair of stiletto high heels.
The elegant makeup and neat matching of this body make her already cool and refined temperament even more charming.
The sisters are also dressed in light-colored formal attire. After all, it is a serious banquet occasion, and they must not dress too casually.
In fact, they have participated in many banquets, large and small, but this banquet is actually the first time for Pei Zhuxuan and others.
Even though they debuted seven years ago...
"I don't know if there are any other artists besides us..."
Sitting in the nanny's car, Jiang Seulqi breathed a long sigh of relief, easing the slightly heavy atmosphere in the car.
"Have Sister Zhuxun asked Liu Xin'an about the guests who also attended the banquet this time?"
"No, he doesn't know. There's no point in asking him." Pei Zhuxuan shook his head, glanced at Cheng Taiqian who was sitting in the passenger seat, and said.
If it had been before, she might have continued to hide it, but now, the banquet will be held not long ago, and Liu Xin'an will also come to the banquet, so there is no point in hiding it any longer.
It's better to recognize it quickly.
Her answer was all heard by Cheng Taiqian, who was sitting in the passenger seat. Even though Cheng Taiqian was prepared for this matter, when he heard Pei Zhuhyun talk about this topic, he couldn't help but turn his head and look at Pei Zhuhyun.
"So this event is really sent to you by Xin'an?"
Pei Zhuxuan raised his eyes and looked at Cheng Taiqian who was looking at him. The cold look made Cheng Taiqian afraid to look directly.
Not to mention anything else, Bae Joo Hyun's outfit and her impeccably pretty face, coupled with her rather indifferent look when her face is expressionless, are really oppressive.
"right."
"Oh my god...who is this boyfriend of yours?"
S-M has been trying to find out Liu Xin'an's details for more than a day or two, but... every time their investigation gets stuck at an unlucky opportunity, it doesn't matter once or twice. This kind of thing happens more than once.
once.
It's really hard for Cheng Taiqian to imagine that a man who is so comfortable and natural to get along with could have such a huge power behind him...
No! Then if Liu Xin'an really has a huge power behind him, why... would he be willing to be a small anchor?
This doesn’t make sense!
Seulgi and the others are also curious about Sung Tae-cheon's question, but Bae Joo-hyun and Yoo Shin-an have very similar ideas when it comes to protecting the privacy of their significant other.
"Actually, I don't know much. If he wants to tell you, he will tell you himself."
Bae Zhuhyun smiled. This answer gave everyone unlimited space for imagination, and then...
"You are so good at pretending, sister Zhuhyun."
Son Seung-wan's ruthless rants immediately made Bae Joo-hyun, who pretended to be handsome with a small face, lose his power. The devilish laughter instantly began to echo continuously in the car, and the very dull atmosphere just now also followed her.
The cheerful laughter gradually dissipated.
"You have been debuting for so many years. I can't accompany you to this event, so you must listen to Irene and never talk nonsense. Do you understand?"
Although he is still impressed by Liu Xin'an's ability, there is one thing that makes Cheng Taiqian very lucky.
Since Liu Xinan will also attend this event, he doesn't need to worry so much about Bae Zhuhyun and the others.
Based on his understanding of Liu Xin'an, this person will definitely take good care of Pei Zhuxuan and the others.
"Don't worry, brother Taiqian, we will be careful."
"Well, Erin, I'll leave it to you."
"Okay." Pei Zhuxuan took a deep breath, pursed her lips slightly, and nodded vigorously.
The vehicle soon stopped near the Consulate General. There was no media nearby. After all, the event was hosted by the Chinese Consulate General, and no media dared to make such a big deal to take secret photos.
However, when Bae Zhuhyun was the first to open the door of the nanny car and get out of the car, some of the guests who also came to the event recognized this big star who was recently making a summer storm in Goryeo.
After Bae Zhuhyun got off the car, she stretched out her hand to support Jiang Seulqi who was about to get off the car behind her. She kept this movement and got the four sisters off. She took a deep breath and walked in front of the sisters, heading towards the Consulate General.
Go to the door.
After whispering their names and intentions, the closed door in front of them opened, and a staff member appeared in front of them, smiling and saying in Chinese: "Welcome."
Bae Zhuhyun also smiled and said "thank you" in reply, and then led the members through the security check one by one and officially entered the main venue of the event.
The venue is very large and impressive. After passing through the corridor, a beautiful building comes into view.
"What should I do? I suddenly feel so nervous."
At this time, because there was no familiar Cheng Taiqian to lead them, the feeling of being at a loss made Pei Zhuxuan and others tense up.
Sun Shengwan even quickened his pace, came close to Pei Zhuhyun, and whispered.
In fact, Bae Zhuhyun was also very nervous, but Sung Taecheon was not around, and she was the leader of the group, so she did not show any panic or nervousness, but turned back and smiled at her sisters who were looking at her.
"Just treat it as a normal banquet."
As he spoke, Pei Zhuhyun's steps did not stop.
Soon, they walked through the garden in front of the venue and officially entered the main venue.
Standing at the entrance of the venue to greet the guests was the wife of the consul general who was hosting the event. Pei Zhuxuan had pestered Liu Xin'an to make a lot of preparations for her before she came, so she recognized this lady in bright red at a glance.
, a woman with a very gentle smile.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Hello, madam, I am Bae Zhuxian, nice to meet you."
She waved vaguely to the sisters behind her, walked quickly to the woman, showed a beautiful smile, and took the initiative to say hello in Chinese.
The familiar Chinese also made the consul's wife look surprised, but soon the smile on the woman's face became even brighter.
"Hello, hello, you are welcome to be our guests. I have seen you on TV a lot this summer. I really congratulate you."
Bae Joo-hyun took the initiative to say hello in Chinese, and his wife responded kindly in Korean.
Upon hearing the familiar Korean language, Jiang Seulqi and others quickly said hello to each other, and then stood obediently next to Bae Zhuhyun.
"Does Madam also know about us?"
"Of course, she is as beautiful as what she saw on TV. How many good things have she done to have such a beautiful face?"
"Madam, you are also very beautiful."
"Hahaha." No matter what age or country, women like to hear compliments.
Pei Zhuxuan's compliment made Madam chuckle. Then, she looked into the distance and shouted loudly: "Xiao Dai, the guests you invited are here."
Pei Zhuhyun can understand part of the Chinese language, but she has never learned this sentence.
And just when she was subconsciously guessing the Chinese meaning of the phrase "Mrs. Consul", a man with a tall figure, elegant appearance, and a formal suit appeared in front of them.
Before Pei Zhuhyun could say anything, the man in front of her spoke first.
"Thank you for accepting my invitation. I am Dai Zhiyuan who invited you here this time."
Pei Zhuxuan was stunned for a moment, and then Tong Kong was shocked and quickly replied: "No, we should thank you for inviting us."

"Let's come in first." Dai Zhiyuan made an invitation. After seeing Jiang Seqi and Sun Shengwan looking at an ink-style Chinese painting beside them, he smiled and reminded, "If you are interested, you can take pictures.
For souvenirs.”
"May I?"
"sure."
Pei Zhuxuan watched helplessly as her sisters approached the beautiful ink painting, and then followed her.
We happily took a group photo with this painting, said hello to the very gentle wife of the consul again, and then followed the man named Dai Zhiyuan to a relatively secluded place.
"Let me introduce myself again." Dai Zhiyuan looked around and after confirming that no one was paying attention, he took a deep breath and said, "I am Dai Zhiyuan, the cultural consul of the Chinese Consulate General in Busan."
After introducing his identity, Dai Zhiyuan looked at Pei Zhuxuan and showed a joking smile: "It seems Anzi... Well, Mr. Liu Xin'an didn't tell you anything about me."
The appearance of Liu Xin'an's name made Pei Zhuhyun's eyes light up.
Next to her, Jiang Seulqi and others stared with wide eyes.
Although they had expected it, they were still involuntarily shocked when the truth appeared in front of them.
"Is Mr. Dai a friend of Xin'an?"
"To be precise, I am your fan, Brother Anzi and Sister Zhuzi."
"Wow..."
"Well, I'll explain it to you more specifically after Brother Anzi comes over. Now let me take a few of you to visit our Consulate General."
"Ah, okay, please."
After knowing that the person in front of him was Liu Xin'an's friend, most of Pei Zhuhyun's nervousness immediately dissipated.
Also relaxing were Jiang Seulgi and others who had been in a fog.
Although they don't know what the specific situation is now, since they are Liu Xin'an's acquaintances, they feel a lot more relieved.
———
In fact, Pei Zhuxun and the others went too early. They arrived an hour before the dinner officially started. When Dai Zhiyuan led Pei Zhuxuan and others to visit the consulate general, Liu Xin'an had just arrived at the door.
He was not as nervous and cautious as Pei Zhuxuan and others. Probably because he knew that most of the people inside the venue were his compatriots, Liu Xin'an walked into the venue very naturally, and then greeted the consul's wife cordially.
But what surprised Liu Xin'an was that the consul's wife knew him very well.
"Your father called us specifically today and asked us to take good care of you."
After hearing what the other party said, Liu Xin'an suddenly realized.
"By the way, that beautiful Miss Pei Zhuxian is your girlfriend, right?"
The consul's wife's well-spoken words made Liu Xin'an want to laugh. After learning about Pei Zhuxuan's identity, he also knew that Pei Zhuxuan's Chinese name should be Pei Zhuxian. This is the Chinese name on her ID card.
,but...
"Joohyun" is not as good as "Joohyun".
"Yes, do you know Zhu Hyun?"
"Of course, they are very popular here this summer. My children have been watching their programs. If you can, please get an autograph for us."
"No problem." Liu Xin'an nodded with a smile and happily agreed to the proposal. Then he looked inside the venue with a humble smile on his face, "Then I'll go in first."
"Zhiyuan is already taking them to visit the Consulate General. You can just go and find them."
"Okay." Liu Xin'an reached out and shook hands with the other party gently, and then walked towards the consulate general.
Despite the large area of the Consulate General, it was very easy for Liu Xin'an to see the very eye-catching Pei Zhuhyun and others.
After all, most of the people attending this event were people from the political and business circles, and these people generally wore ordinary suits.
Even though Bae Zhuhyun and others are dressed in formal clothes, their beautiful appearance and outstanding figure are still very recognizable.
Similarly, when he discovered Bae Zhuhyun and the others, Kang Seulgi, who was looking around, obviously also discovered him.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Oh?"
Jiang Seulqi subconsciously let out an exclamation. The exclamation was neither too loud nor too small, but it was enough to be heard by the members around her.
For a moment, Bae Zhuhyun looked at Kang Seulgi, and then realized that Kang Seulgi seemed to be looking at something, and she also looked at where Kang Seulgi was looking.
The next second, a joyful smile bloomed on her beautiful face, but this overly bright smile completely destroyed the coolness created by her outfit.
Liu Xin'an quickened his pace and walked in front of Pei Zhuxuan.
"well enough?"
"Well, everything is fine. Mr. Dai has been introducing us to the Consulate General."
Bae Zhuhyun answered obediently, narrowing her beautiful eyes and looking in a good mood.
"Thank you Zhiyuan."
"It's a small matter. Since you're here, Brother Anzi, I'll go and do my business first. I'll leave you to worry about visiting the Consulate General later."
Dai Zhiyuan nodded and said aloud.
Liu Xin'an's mouth twitched: "Do you think there is a possibility that this is my first time here too?"
"Hahaha, in fact, I have already visited everything that can be seen. When the dinner starts, I will introduce a few friends to you. You can visit freely first."
"Okay, you go about your business, as long as I'm here."
"OK."
While Liu Xin'an was chatting with Dai Zhiyuan, Pei Zhuxuan's eyes never stopped looking at her man.
She just barely had the word "proud" written on her face. Sun Seungwan and others who knew Bae Zhuhyun very well could easily see this.
But it is undeniable that Liu Xin'an's existence far exceeded their expectations.
They originally thought that Liu Xin'an was just an anchor with millions of fans, but unexpectedly, this anchor that they didn't care about suddenly transformed into an outrageous existence that far exceeded their expectations.
Son Seung-wan approached Bae Zhu-hyun intimately, then lowered his voice and joked softly to the man whose eyes were full of Liu Xin-an at this time.
"Are you happy?"
"ah!"
Thanks to the constant playing of some traditional Chinese songs that they could not name in the venue, and there were not many people here, no one noticed Pei Zhuxuan's exclamation.
But Liu Xin'an and Dai Zhiyuan, who hadn't gone far yet, looked at her subconsciously.
Pei Zhuhyun, who was receiving so much attention from the two of them, unconsciously blushed on her face. She pursed her lips and glared at Sun Shengwan who suddenly spoke in an extremely annoyed manner.
Son Seungwan hurriedly hid behind Jiang Seulgi, shrugging his shoulders.
Ah, don't worry, she's not scared, she's just suppressing a smile.
After Dai Zhiyuan left, Liu Xin'an looked at Pei Zhuxuan, who was still angry, and acted funny as a peacemaker.
"What did Shengwan do?"
"I was shocked when she suddenly spoke!"
Hmm... It's a very common quarrel. Judging from Sun Shengwan's disapproving look, you can tell that this incident happens frequently.
In fact, it's not entirely Son Seung-wan's fault, it's just that Bae Joo-hyun is scared too easily.
She had already lowered her voice very low because she was afraid that Pei Zhuxuan would be frightened by her sudden opening.
But she still underestimated this sister.
"Okay, why are you here so early?"
"...It's definitely better to come early for this kind of event. You can't just come here at a late hour. That would be rude."
They are not as confident as Liu Xin'an. It can be said that the event company was not helpful at all. They did not even know the identities of the guests who were also invited. But as of now, they can come to this banquet.
Most of the guests are people of high social status.
"That's true."
This answer gave Liu Xin'an no reason to refute. He nodded, stood in front of Pei Zhuxuan, and observed the surroundings.
In fact, some of the people who came to this banquet were young people who came with their parents.
Young people naturally want to know more about the trendy things nowadays. In other words, just standing here, Liu Xin'an can always feel that some of the eyes are on him and Pei Zhuhyun behind him.
Obviously, these people recognized Bae Zhuhyun's identity.
However, Liu Xin'an did not find Uncle Zhang among the surrounding crowd. Maybe he hasn't arrived yet?
Since he didn't see Uncle Zhang, Liu Xin'an didn't intend to take the initiative to talk to some strangers he didn't know. He looked back at Pei Zhuxuan and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"Lao Dai just introduced you to the Consulate General, right?"
"Yes, what's the matter?"
"Can you please ask our beautiful Miss Pei Zhuxuan to show me around the Consulate General? In fact, this is my first time here, so I'm not very familiar with everything here."
There was still more than half an hour before the banquet started. It would not be good to stand here doing nothing for half an hour, so Liu Xin'an asked his girlfriend in a joking tone.
Pei Zhuxuan looked at her boyfriend speechlessly, sighed, and was also amused by Liu Xin'an's rogue remarks.
Asking her as a guest to introduce the Consulate General to him, Liu Xin'an was lucky enough to say this.
"Okay, then let us show you around."
“Thank you very much~”
The singing between the young lovers made Jiang Seulqi and others behind Bae Zhuhyun look at each other in amazement.
How come I came here to participate in an event and still got a mouthful of dog food?
And...they didn't promise to take Liu Xin'an to visit!
