Liu Xin'an was indeed eating in jyp's cafeteria at this time.
Of course, he also knew that if news about his appearance in JYP spread, it would inevitably cause unnecessary speculation, so he kept a very low profile.
Sitting in the corner wearing a hat, he actually wasn't that conspicuous, so after having a simple lunch, Liu Xin'an raised his eyes and looked at the man in front of him.
Yes, why would he choose to eat in the jyp cafeteria if he is cautious? Naturally, it is because he met Han Zaide.
The employee ID card he is using now is the one used by Lin Nalian and others as temporary assistants, so when he swiped his card to enter JYP, Han Zaide had already received the notification.
Afterwards, Liu Xin'an was blocked by Han Zaide when he came out of JYP's office.
It is indeed strange for him to appear in JYP, but with Han Zaide by his side, it all becomes more reasonable.
After all, he and Momo were on the same team in that variety show that just finished airing.
With this relationship, in the eyes of outsiders, it is not strange for him to meet Han Zaide.
"You hide it so deeply, kid."
Han Zaide laughed and cursed, while Liu Xin'an, who wiped his mouth, also smiled "hehe".
In fact, when he and Bae Zhuhyun first went public, Han Jae-deok, Lin Nayeon, and other artists he met during variety show filming all called him and asked him about it.
He has never explicitly denied his affair with Bae Zhuhyun in the live broadcast room or in public, but he still pinched his nose and lied when everyone was chatting between the filming of the show.
One can imagine how much resentment these friends who were deceived by him had towards him after he and Pei Zhuhyun became public...
I can't really complain, I just blame him a little bit.
Among them, Lin Nalian is the most obvious.
Because they have very lovable personalities and have been working together before, Liu Xin'an and Lin Nalian have the best relationship among this group of friends.
Moreover, Lin Nalian is also the most curious about Liu Xin'an's love.
The self-proclaimed detective compiled a lot of clues in order to guess the identity of Liu Xin'an's girlfriend.
She has analyzed a lot by herself, such as "very close to Dahyun", "female artist", "juniors younger than them"... but she has investigated it bit by bit on her own.
The results of it?
Bae Joo Hyun?
How could it be Bae Zhuhyun!
She really couldn't accept it. This answer was too different from what she had imagined.
"I was forced to have no choice. It was not a good thing for her to disclose her relationship with me in the situation she was in at that time."
"...Is this a good thing now?"
"At least within a controllable range."
"That's true...but I still don't understand what you are doing. According to your personality, keeping it private is the most likely option."
After all, he had worked with Liu Xin'an for a while, and he was quite impressed by Liu Xin'an's caution.
Based on his understanding of Liu Xin'an, he could not imagine that Liu Xin'an would take the initiative to do something public that would obviously lose the popularity of himself and Bae Zhuhyun.
"I had no intention of making it public, but she felt it would be unfair to me not to make it public, so she finally decided to make it public after discussion."
"...Then it's not surprising." Han Zaide understood this time that this was indeed something Liu Xin'an could do.
"So I finally chose to make it public. Fortunately, most of the fans' reactions afterwards were mainly supportive, which also reduced the pressure on both of us a lot."
Looking at Liu Xin'an's relieved look, Han Zaide suddenly laughed.
"If your relationship with the president is exposed again, the entertainment industry will probably become even more lively."
"Then it's best not to do it. If this kind of thing really spreads, it may cause more trouble."
For now, there is no need for the outside world to know about his relationship with Park Jin Young.
His relationship with Park Jin Young’s uncle and nephew is not big news.
His romantic relationship with Bae Joo Hyun is not particularly big news either.
But...if he is Park Jin Young's nephew and is a lover of Bae Zhu Hyun, that would be big news.
Exposing it won't help much, and it might even have a negative impact on myself and Bae Zhuhyun... So for now, it's better to keep it a secret.
"Right."
"Brother, aren't you busy today?" Liu Xin'an didn't want to talk more about his affairs with Bae Zhuhyun, so he turned the topic to Han Jae-de.
"I'm not busy today, but I'll be busy in the next two days. I'll be back in two days, so the members are working overtime to practice."
"Oh...that means Nayeon and the others are all in the company?" Liu Xin'an suddenly felt something was wrong.
Because he remembered very clearly that Lin Nalian told him on the phone that she would never let him and Pei Zhuxuan go easily next time they saw them...
"Correct answer~"
A sweet female voice sounded behind Liu Xin'an, and this voice also made Liu Xin'an tremble.
It’s true that the less you don’t want to face something, the more it will appear.
He turned around stiffly and looked behind him. Lin Nayeon, Momo, and Kim Dahyun, who was very familiar with him, came into his eyes.
Thinking about it, Han Zaide knew that he was coming to jyp, how could these people not know?
He should probably be thankful that he only knows these few people, otherwise the nine people who appeared at this time might be the nine people from Twice?
"Hey, long time no see, everyone."
Liu Xinan waved hello to three beautiful girls as if nothing had happened, but the only one who responded to him was Kim Dahyun, who had known about his relationship with Bae Zhuhyun from the beginning.
Lin Nalian and momo just hummed and sat down.
Their appearance has caused some employees dining in the canteen to look here curiously. Fortunately, Liu Xin'an is still wearing a hat and is sitting in the inner part. As long as no one deliberately passes by here, there is still no problem.
It's so easy to recognize yourself.
"Ahem, what, what do you want to eat? I'll treat you!"
Knowing that he was in the wrong, Liu Xin'an quickly seized the right to speak, but he seemed to have forgotten that the place they were in now was JYP's canteen.
"No, this is our company's canteen!"
Lin Nalian said angrily, but after she finished speaking, momo beside her reached out and patted the sister's hand gently, whispering a reminder.
"Sister Nayeon, this is also Xin'an's company."
Lin Nalian's brain shut down and she was stunned for a few seconds before sighing in frustration. The girl's cheeks swelled slightly, looking very depressed.
"I thought they were the newly debuted kids. How could it be Sister Eileen?"
"...What new kid?" Liu Xin'an was confused. Is Lin Nalian talking about him?
"Yes, based on the clues I got from Dahyun, I thought your girlfriend was a girl younger than us at first."
Hearing this, Liu Xin'an couldn't help but look at Kim Dahyun beside him.
Kim Da Hyun himself was confused, and then waved his hands fiercely: "I didn't say anything, it was all Nayeon's own imagination."
"Anyway... such a big thing has been hidden from us, and even if it was hidden from us, it actually lied to us!"
Lin Nalian didn't care about that, she patted the table gently, and in a very serious tone, she complained softly that Liu Xin'an was not a good friend.
"Then... how about I treat you to dinner?"
"Can."
"good."
"Remember to call Sister Eileen too."
"..."
Liu Xin'an understood that these people are worthy of being teammates who have debuted together for many years. In terms of tacit understanding, they are no worse than Bae Zhuhyun's redvelvet people.
"But haven't you been free lately? You're coming back, aren't you?"
"Let's wait until we return."
Time? The last thing female artists lack is time.
There is always a lot of time to meet together, and besides, it will be the end of the year soon.
If nothing else, redvelvet will also attend the year-end stage together.
At that time, there won’t be many opportunities to get together for dinner.
"Okay, I'll tell her later." Liu Xin'an smiled helplessly and agreed.
This meal is indeed a treat, after all, it was the two of them who started an underground love affair without telling everyone.
After chatting for a while, Liu Xin'an didn't plan to stay here any longer.
Lin Nalian and the others were about to return, and they had a lot of things at hand. Now he was no longer the temporary assistant to this group of people... But as a good friend, Liu Xin'an did not hesitate to encourage him.
"Work hard for your return."
Leaving behind a sentence of encouragement to a few people, Liu Xin'an left jyp in a low-key manner.
I have to say that not having a car is indeed very inconvenient.
After leaving jyp, Liu Xin'an took a taxi home.
Not a minute after I walked in, my girlfriend called me.
Liu Xin'an first connected the phone, turned on the speaker, put it aside, and then began to take off his coat.
"rest?"
"Why did you go to jyp? Do you have something to talk to your uncle?"
"Well, my parents asked me to go over and say hello to my uncle, and then I was caught by Lin Nalian and the others."
"...Thank you for your hard work." Although Pei Zhuxuan on the phone said hard work, Liu Xin'an heard a hint of schadenfreude from it.
"Don't laugh too early. I promised Na Lian and the others to treat them to dinner, and you have to come too."
"...Huh? You agreed too?"
"...also?"
Pei Zhuhyun's surprise also confused Liu Xin'an, but he soon came to his senses.
"Nayeon also stole a meal from you?"
"right."
"She really is." Liu Xin'an couldn't help but admire, and Pei Zhuhyun on the other side of the phone also laughed out loud.
"Are you taking a break?"
"Yes, I'm having lunch. I probably won't go back today...or I'll probably go back to the dormitory in the next few days. Don't miss me too much."
"Well, I will be obedient and not miss you." Liu Xin'an replied jokingly.
And this answer made Bae Zhuhyun pout.
"Ah, how could you answer like that?" Pei Zhuhyun muttered unhappily.
"You told me not to let me miss you too much."
"So you agreed so happily? It seems that I am not here to make you very happy."
The dissatisfaction in Bae Zhuhyun's voice made Liu Xin'an laugh out loud.
He put away the shoes he had changed into, picked up his mobile phone and walked towards the game live broadcast room.
Now that some things have been decided, he should make up for the water friends he owes more.
"Nothing, tell me something that makes you happy. Do you want to hear it?"
"not at all."
"Then I won't say anything."
"Yeah!! Say it quickly!!"
Bae Zhuhyun's voice was a little distorted, probably because he was a little annoyed by his continuous teasing.
Although my girlfriend's aggrieved look is cute, if she teases her too much, she will become irritable.
Liu Xin'an stopped pretending, he started the computer and said softly.
"Let's go participate in the show, the one called "Knowing Brothers"."
As soon as these words came out, the phone was quiet for a few seconds.
Liu Xin'an was not in a hurry, he waited patiently.
Immediately afterwards, Bae Zhuhyun's completely irrepressible excited voice sounded in his ears.
"You agreed?!"
"Yes, agreed."
"Wow!!"
———
Now that the decision had been made, Liu Xin'an did not hesitate too much. After hanging up the phone with Bae Zhuhyun, he then called Director Jin.
Liu Xin'an's phone number has a very high priority in s-m.
So the phone only rang a few times and was quickly connected.
"Ah, Director Jin, I didn't disturb your work, did I?"
Liu Xin'an asked politely.
As for Chief Kim...
At this time, he was sitting in front of Li Chengzhu. He raised his eyes slightly and glanced. After Li Chengzhu nodded, he answered: "No, is there something wrong?"
"It's like this. Zhuhyun told me before that JTBC's "Knowing Bros" program wants to invite me and Zhuhyun to participate in it. Is this true?"
Director Jin's eyes lit up, and Li Chengzhu, who was sitting in front of him, couldn't help but smile.
"That's right. In addition, there are some other observation programs that I would like to invite you and Irene to participate in, such as..."
"Ah, I won't consider anything else for now because I don't watch much, but I am usually a loyal viewer of "Knowing Brothers", so I want to ask, if Zhuhyun and I really participate in this show as a couple
Will the program have any impact on Joohyun and the others’ development?”
These words made Chief Kim and Li Chengzhu want to complain. At this time, Liu Xinan suddenly became concerned about the development of Bae Zhuhyun and the others...
If you have the guts, don’t make it public!
We are all human beings, and in fact, we all understand what each other means here.
Liu Xin'an will make this call, and both Office Chief Kim and Lee Sung-joo have understood Liu Xin'an's intention to star.
So here, Director Kim also cooperates with Liu Xin'an's acting: "There will be no problem. In conjunction with the endorsement news that will be released in a while, the nationality of Irene and others will be further expanded, so don't worry.
"
"Ah~ When will the shooting take place?"
"Want to participate?"
"Well, it's a good opportunity for me to be on a show that I usually like very much. Of course, it must be coordinated with Zhuhyun's schedule. If there is no conflict in the schedule, it will be a lot of trouble for Jin.
Director, please help me contact the program team."
"For small things, I can directly tell the program team your contact information. For the specific details, let them come and tell you in person."
After all, Liu Xin'an is not a contract employee of s-m. It is better to let Liu Xin'an communicate on his own here, so as to avoid having to argue when problems arise.
"Okay, here you go, Director of the Hardship Compensation Office."
"It doesn't matter."
After the brief call, Director Jin glanced at the black screen of his cell phone and sighed as if he was mocking himself. He is 20 years older than Liu Xin'an!
Being commanded by a junior like this...
Li Chengzhu, who was in front of him, laughed loudly: "Chief Jin, I leave this matter to you."
"Yes, I will make arrangements."
...
Liu Xin'an hung up the phone and stretched his neck. He opened the OBS and debugged it habitually, preparing to start the next live broadcast.
But Chief Kim's efficiency far exceeded his expectations.
It had only been ten minutes since he started broadcasting, he hadn't opened the game yet, and he was chatting and joking with his water friends, when a call came in without indicating any remarks.
The vibrating sound of the mobile phone was quite obvious. Liu Xin'an raised the mobile phone and spoke briefly to the water friends. Then he turned off the microphone and stood up to answer the phone.
The person who called was the lead PD of "Knowing Brothers" whom Liu Xin'an asked Director Jin to contact before.
"Is this Mr. Liu Xin'an?"
The phone was connected and a calm male voice sounded.
"Yes, are you..."
"Ah, I am Choi Chang-soo, the host of JTBC TV station's "Knowing Brother" program. I got your phone number from S-M's Chief Kim. Is it convenient for you now?"
"It's convenient. I'm sorry to contact you in this way because I don't have a contract with a brokerage company. Please forgive me."
"It's okay, it's okay. After all, we want to invite you to star. Please don't say that." PD Cui said hurriedly.
After a simple polite exchange, the topic officially got down to business.
"Did Mr. Liu Xin'an agree to appear in our show, together with Ms. Irene from redvelvet?"
"That's it. I would like to ask what exactly should I prepare?"
"Well, maybe you have watched our programs before?"
"Yes, because it is a program that I usually watch."
"Then you don't need to prepare too much, just come here. Our program won't ask too many excessive questions, but there is one thing I still want to ask. Do you mind if we ask some questions about you and Ms. Irene?
What are some details of love?"
This is a very critical issue. This is the purpose of inviting Liu Xin'an and Pei Zhuxuan over.
This is the most curious question among viewers nowadays. You must know that this outsider named Liu Xin'an has never received any media interviews. Pei Zhuhyun is also on vacation and cannot be contacted by the media.
In other words, for all the fans and passers-by who are concerned about this matter, the only content they can gossip about is the information leaked from Liu Xin'an's own live broadcast room.
There are no serious interviews or programs.
Everyone knows the importance of first-hand news. If possible, PD Cui would like to dig up some breaking news.
Like...some interesting love pasts and so on.
"Well...as long as it's not too outrageous, I should be able to accept it, but as for her, you still need to contact the s-m staff, and I can't make the decision."
"Okay, okay, I understand what you mean, then...when will you be free in the near future?"
"I'm always available."
"Okay, then I will contact s-m here and then contact you after confirming the specific shooting time."
"OK."
...
The call didn't last long. After hanging up, Liu Xin'an put on the headphones again and turned on the microphone for the live broadcast.
【The bastard is back】
[Has the anchor pooped? 】
[Understand, after all, the host has a bad stomach and can only eat soft rice]
"God damn it, I'm working very hard to make money to support my family."
He was amused by the barrage and answered casually.
"Well... keep playing the game, the travel vlog will be posted in two days, don't rush me."
