Entering the familiar rhythm of variety shows, as a senior in the same company who has watched Bae Zhuhyun grow up from her debut to today, Kim Heechul stood up and clapped her hands very cooperatively.
But after seeing Pei Zhuhyun standing there awkwardly, he asked casually: "Why don't you come in? Is there someone behind you who is embarrassed to come in?"
Everyone knew that Bae Zhuhyun was not the only one who came today, so everyone laughed and laughed at Kim Heechul's deliberate teasing.
As the target of being teased, Bae Zhu Hyun showed an embarrassed expression and still stood at the door.
"As for me, I brought a new classmate today." She spoke word by word.
But as soon as he finished speaking, the classroom once again erupted into excited cheers from several people.
"oh!
"
"Come in, come in!"
"Don't be embarrassed, we are all easy to get along with."
"Yes, bring him in quickly, Eileen."
Kim Heechul went directly to the window, opened it, and then stuck his head out, waving to Liu Xinan who was hiding behind the door.
"Yeah, come in quickly!"
Being forced to do nothing now, Pei Zhuxuan had no choice but to look back at her boyfriend. After confirming that Liu Xin'an did not show any particularly nervous expression, she took a deep breath and walked slowly into the classroom.
Beautiful female idols, especially super beauties of Bae Zhuhyun's level, will generally be quite popular when participating in shows.
But the MCs who recognized him today did not pay too much attention to Bae Zhuhyun. Instead, they welcomed Bae Zhuhyun in a perfunctory manner, and then continued to keep their eyes on the door.
Liu Xin'an did not continue to whet his appetite. With a humble smile, he straightened his back and walked steadily from the door to the classroom desk and stood next to Pei Zhuxuan.
"Hello everyone."
"oh!
"Wow, he is really handsome, isn't he really an artist?"
"Ah, be quiet, be quiet, let them talk for themselves." Jiang Hodong said with a sullen face, signaling everyone to be quiet, and then showed a very gentle smile to Liu Xin'an... At least he thought his smile was quite gentle.
.
"Brother, you really won't scare them by laughing like this?" Kim Heechul, who was sitting in the front row, complained subconsciously.
These words also made everyone laugh all of a sudden, and Jiang Hodong even turned red with laughter.
After a while of commotion, everyone tacitly agreed not to make any noise, but focused their attention uniformly on Pei Zhuxuan and Liu Xin'an.
Generally speaking, at this time, Bae Zhuhyun, who is a variety show veteran, should take the initiative and lead her boyfriend who has little variety show experience.
but...
Perhaps it was these pairs of curious eyes that made Pei Zhuxuan very nervous. She opened her mouth slightly, and was frozen for a while, but she didn't know how to speak. After that, she habitually hid behind Liu Xin'an, not daring to show her head.
.
"Ah, Irene, you are a senior in variety shows, so what's the point of hiding behind a newcomer!" Kim Heechul couldn't let go of such an opportunity to complain about Bae Zhuhyun.
"Oh~ This is the first time we have seen such a shy Erin, right?"
"Indeed, Irene was not so shy the last few times I came here. Heechul is right. Irene, you are a senior who has been in the industry for eight years. You can't embarrass yourself in front of the juniors."
The more I talked about it, the more Pei Zhuhyun blushed. She was actually not that shy, it was just...
But now it's different from every time I came to the show before.
This is on the show!
"Okay, let me take the initiative to say hello first." Liu Xin'an said with a smile, turning the firepower on himself.
But before he could finish speaking, several MCs sitting in the audience interrupted him again.
"The sound is so nice."
"Are you protecting Irene? It's so sweet!"
Pei Zhuxuan grabbed the hem of Liu Xin'an's shirt with both hands, took a deep breath, and tried to calm down the blush on her face.
She should have guessed that these bad guys wouldn't let them off so easily.
But now she has adapted a little.
Seeing Bae Zhuhyun appear, Jiang Hodong and others calmed down in a tacit understanding.
How can Liu Xin'an speak first? He still has to force Bae Zhuhyun out.
"Hello everyone, I am Irene, who transferred from Red Velvet High School to Brother High School today."
She knew her cheeks must be very red at this time, but she had no choice but to bite the bullet and say hello to the MCs first.
After Pei Zhuxuan finished speaking, Liu Xin'an also took over the conversation.
"Hello, I am Liu Xin'an, an international student from China. Nice to meet you all."
"Wow! Welcome, welcome."
"Hello, hello." Kim Heechul, who knows a little bit of Chinese, even said hello to Liu Xin'an in fluent Chinese.
"Maybe... I'm a little curious, why did the two of them transfer to our school at the same time?" Li Xiuquan, who was sitting behind Jiang Hodong, started to set the pace.
Before Liu Xin'an and Bae Zhuhyun could reply, the lively Kim Heechul spoke again. After all, his task today was to take care of Bae Zhuhyun and Liu Xin'an: "Oh! Could it be that you two have a special relationship?"
It’s still a question I asked knowingly, but as luck would have it, these MCs love to see this.
Pei Zhuhyun, who knew very well that she and Liu Xin'an were being teased, showed a helpless expression. She bit her lower lip lightly and finally nodded.
"Yes, we have a special relationship."
"What's the relationship?"
Everyone's pressing step by step also made Pei Zhuxuan painfully determined, and she took a deep breath.
"It's a relationship between lovers."
"oh!
Several MCs stood up excitedly and high-fived each other. They were celebrating as if they were the ones in love with Liu Xin'an.
Of course, there were also people who had been sitting in the back row calmly. Lee Soo-geun stood up. He was only a head taller than Kang Ho-dong who was sitting in front of him.
"Why are you so excited? Are you the one who fell in love with Mr. Liu Xin'an?"
"Pfft...cluck..."
Bae Zhuhyun was the first to succeed. She smiled and lowered her head, not wanting her uncontrollable smile to be exposed to the camera.
"Okay, welcome to "Knowing Brothers"~"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Thank you."
"Since you are willing to accept our invitation to participate in the show, it means that you should be aware of it, right?"
Pei Zhuxuan nodded. She raised her head slightly and looked at Liu Xin'an beside her. After exchanging glances with Liu Xin'an, she answered with a smile.
"Yes, we have made sufficient preparations."
"Then first question! How did you two know each other?"
Since Bae Zhuhyun himself said that he was fully prepared, Yongzhe, the other person sitting in the front seat, took the lead in asking questions.
But his question was not answered by Liu Xinan and Bae Zhuhyun. Instead, it was complained by Xu Jangxun, who was sitting very far back.
"Please let Liu Xin'an introduce himself first. We don't know him very well."
Jin Yongzhe was stunned for a moment, then turned sideways to face the program crew with a ridiculous expression.
"This is the first thing I said today."
"Be quiet!"
This time Jin Yongzhe was honest. After all, his position in this show is to be bullied, so he was not angry, but looked at Liu Xin'an happily.
The topic came to Liu Xin'an. Liu Xin'an, who had always been looking at everyone curiously, did not have stage fright. He nodded and said with a gentle aura: "Since everyone is more curious about me, let me introduce myself first.
Bar."
"My name is Liu Xin'an. I'm from China. I'm here today as Irene's boyfriend. You can also just call me Xin'an."
Another highlight of this show is... seniority.
In the setting of the show, both the MC and the guests participating in the show are all students of the same grade.
Since we are all classmates, we don’t need to use those cumbersome titles.
Even if Kim Heechul is nearly ten years older than Liu Xin'an, in the show, Liu Xin'an can still directly refer to Kim Heechul as Heechul without referring to the "brother" behind him.
Therefore, no one had any objection to Liu Xin'an's natural request.
"Irene's boyfriend~"
"Xin'an, are you really Chinese? Don't you speak Korean a little too well?"
"Well...my mother is from here, so she taught me Korean when I was very young. However, the pronunciation was still a bit strange when I first came here, but I corrected it bit by bit later.
"
"Auntie is from our country? Then based on birth..."
"If you count it based on my mother's origin... I should be considered a Seoulese?"
He already knew his mother's past, so he also knew that his mother was born in Seoul.
"Xin'an speaks many languages!" Pei Zhuxuan on the side joined the topic excitedly, and she actively helped Liu Xin'an introduce it.
"Really? How many languages do you know?"
"Me? Well... I have studied Korean, Japanese, English, and French, ah! And of course Chinese."
"He's a genius, a genius."
"Yes, he is a genius." Pei Zhuxuan answered subconsciously, then realized that his answer was somewhat inappropriate, and hurriedly hid behind Liu Xin'an.
Sure enough, the next second everyone was ridiculing her.
"Yeah, why are you so proud? Is it because he is your boyfriend?"
"This is the first time we have seen Irene who is so proactive. Before she came to the show, she would sit there quietly. Speaking of which, Irene even had bangs today."
"Yes, why did Irene grow bangs today?"
Pei Zhuhyun walked out from behind Liu Xin'an again. She pointed at her bangs and showed an innocent expression.
Bae Joo Hyun, whose cheeks are slightly bulging and pointing her slender fingers at herself, is very cute. Just looking at her will make your heart flutter.
"Isn't it good-looking?"
"Well, it doesn't look good." But how could his brother Kim Heechul save face for his sister? He answered calmly, then crossed his arms and smiled arrogantly.
Kim Heechul's trouble also made Bae Zhuhyun laugh so hard that she lay on the table unable to raise her head.
Li Xiugen even took the opportunity to ask Liu Xin'an questions.
"Which one is more beautiful: Irene with bangs or Irene without bangs?"
"Irene's beauty has nothing to do with her bangs. She has the most beautiful hair style."
"...Ah, you have given lessons to Liu Xin'an, right?"
Bae Zhuhyun laughed so hard that her legs became weak, but she still waved her hands in denial.
"You answered so decisively, you wouldn't have threatened Liu Xin'an to say so, right?"
"Really do not have!
Liu Xin'an blinked and nodded cooperatively.
"She didn't."
But it would be better for him not to say this.
Especially for Pei Zhuxuan, after Liu Xin'an said this, she looked at Liu Xin'an in panic, and after seeing the faint smile on the corner of the man's mouth, she instantly understood that this was Liu Xin'an deliberately looking at her.
Splash dirty water on you.
It's okay that Liu Xin'an didn't add this sentence herself, but this supplement made it seem that she had really trained Liu Xin'an to answer this and that way.
"Yeah! Don't say anything ambiguous."
Liu Xin'an innocently spread his hands, but he did not let everyone continue to besiege his girlfriend, but took the initiative to talk to him.
"Because when I was in college, I specialized in language. Later, I also learned more based on my hobbies. It is also convenient for traveling."
"Oh~ So Xin'an, you met Irene when you came to our country to travel?"
"Well...there are still some things to do when you come here. Meeting Irene is an accident."
"Accident?"
The MCs were all interested, including Kim Heechul who knew something about them, but this was also something he didn't know.
Liu Xin'an nodded and looked at Pei Zhuxuan subconsciously, with a bit of questioning in his eyes.
Pei Zhuxuan nodded. There was nothing special that she couldn't say, so she just spoke on her own.
"I happened to be taking a break during that time, and the first time I met Xin'an was at the elevator door of my house."
She casually recounted the period when she was refrigerated and fast-forwarded directly to the first meeting.
"Elevator door?"
"Yes, at first he planned to stay here only for half a year, so he rented a house. There are only two households on the floor where my house is located, and one is my house..." Pei Zhuxuan pointed to herself, and then she
Pointing to Liu Xin'an, "The other household is the Xin'an family."
"Oh my god, is there such a coincidence?"
Even Jiang Seulgi and others who have heard this kind of thing many times can't help but admire this wonderful coincidence, let alone Kim Heechul and others who heard about it for the first time.
"So Xin'an recognized Irene from the beginning?"
This question made Liu Xin'an look embarrassed.
On the side, Bae Zhuhyun smiled happily.
The strange reactions of the two people made everyone stunned.
In the end, it was the embarrassed Liu Xin'an who answered.
"Well...actually from the very beginning, I didn't know that Joohyun...well, Irene was an artist."
"...ha?"
"Really? This is Irene from Red Velvet!"
"It's true." Pei Zhuxuan finally smiled enough. She calmed down her breathing and nodded, "He didn't know anything about the entertainment industry, so he didn't know that I was an artist at the beginning."
"Then Erin, you must be shocked, right?"
"Well, I was shocked."
This is where the lies lie. In fact, Pei Zhuhyun was not afraid at that time, she just simply... found it troublesome.
At that time, when she was in her darkest moment, she only felt that being recognized by Liu Xin'an was a very troublesome thing... After all, her case was so controversial at the time, and it was really rare for young people who didn't know her to know her.
So there is no such thing as being shocked.
But the effect of the program... still needs some artistic elements.
"Then since Xin'an and you didn't recognize Irene, how did you become close?"
Kim Heechul's question made Yoo Shin-an and Bae Joo-hyun look at each other and smile.
"It was precisely because Xin'an didn't recognize me that we became close... He just regarded me as a neighbor from the beginning, so he listened to his mother's advice and prepared rice cakes for me as a moving gift.
Gift."
"It was also from then on that we officially got to know each other."
"What about the opportunity to get closer?"
"If there is an opportunity..." Pei Zhuxuan thought about it and prepared to answer.
However, Lee Soo Geun once again showed off his amazing reflexes.
He got ahead of Bae Zhuhyun: "What is the opportunity to get closer? Answer together, 3...2...1..."
As Li Xiu Geun counted down, Bae Zhu Hyun and Liu Xin An spoke in unison.
"Balcony!" X2
The only opportunity that can truly be called getting closer is the balcony.
If she hadn't gone to the balcony on a whim that day to blow the cold air, she might never have had much interaction with Liu Xin'an in her life.
So when asked this question, Bae Zhuhyun gave her own answer without thinking.
The same goes for Liu Xin'an.
"They are really a couple."
"Why did we become so close on the balcony?"
"The layout of my house and Zhuhyun's house is that the front door faces the front door, but after entering the door, there is a symmetrical shape, so the master bedroom of my house is only one wall away from the master bedroom of Zhuhyun... Irene's house, and then there is only one wall between my house and Zhuhyun's house.
The balconies of her house are also next to each other." Liu Xin'an is still not used to calling Bae Zhuhyun by her stage name.
And Pei Zhuxuan noticed this, she looked at Liu Xin'an and whispered: "Just call me by my name."
"Well, the day I moved here, the Internet and everything else hadn't been sorted out yet, because I'm an anchor who specializes in live streaming games online. I couldn't do anything without the Internet, so that night I
It was my habit to go to the balcony to enjoy the fresh air. It was also at that time that Zhuhyun and I officially became close."
"Ah~ Irene was also on the balcony at that time?"
"Yes, I'm blowing the wind too."
"Then who started the conversation on the balcony? Answer together! 3...2...1!"
Li Xiugen caught the two of them off guard again.
But this time, their answers were not so consistent.
"Xin'an/Joohyun"
The different answers between each other made Liu Xin'an and Pei Zhuhyun look at each other subconsciously. Then Pei Zhuhyun suddenly remembered the specific situation at that time. She smiled sheepishly and pointed at herself: "It seems to be me."
"So Irene is so proactive?"
"No, I didn't take the initiative. It was mainly because I went to the balcony first and then heard him pushing the balcony door open, so I subconsciously called his name."
"Yes...I was shocked. I thought I encountered something unclean."
"Yeah!" Pei Zhuxuan was anxious. What does it mean to be unclean? This guy is calling her a ghost!
"...In our country, Irene is said to be a ghost, and you are probably the only one."
Li Xiugen's complaint made Liu Xin'an smile awkwardly.
"I was really shocked, but from that time on, the relationship between us was upgraded from neighbors to friends."
"Then when will we become lovers?"
"Well...actually, there is one person who contributed a lot to the fact that Xin'an and I can be together."
"Human? Who?"
"Seulgi!" Bae Zhuhyun smiled and said Seulgi's name, and Kim Heechul and others were very surprised.
