Li Chenglu really hasn't been to Red Velvet's practice room very often. The last time she came to sign a contract with S-M in the name of Xiao Po Station, she did come to hang out. However, she still had work to do at that time, so she still had to avoid suspicion.
But this time, she came as an upright family member of an artist.
Hmm...Bae Joo Hyun's unmarried husband's sister, rounding it off...quasi-sister-in-law?
This reason is very good, at least Cheng Taiqian dare not stop her.
This practice room that can almost only be seen in videos actually appeared in front of him. Li Chenglu really felt that it was very novel.
Then she was dragged around by Jin Yelin who was equally excited, touching her here and there, and from time to time she even took photos together, which was very comfortable.
Of course, Li Chenglu would definitely not come by herself.
"I really won't bother you?"
Liu Xin'an asked softly as he looked at Pei Zhuhyun, who was standing next to him with a ponytail and sweat beads on his smooth forehead.
Pei Zhuxuan calmed down her breathing, nodded, and raised the corners of her lips slightly.
"It would be nice if Cheng Lu came to relieve us of the pressure."
"pressure?"
"Well, pressure."
Bae Joo Hyun has been under a lot of pressure recently. To be precise, she has felt a lot of pressure since the two junior combinations started to exert their strength one after another.
Song Yuqi's (G)-idle and a combination called Ive have really made the Korean entertainment industry a lot more difficult this year.
As one of the few senior groups that debuted very early and are still working hard today, if they really failed and were surpassed by their juniors, it would definitely be a very shameful thing.
Bae Joo Hyun, who has a strong self-esteem...or Red Velvet don't want to see this happen, so everyone has a tacit understanding to tighten the string.
In terms of song quality, their new songs may not be as attractive as the previous two.
But they still have their advantages.
Years of stage experience have given them a stage presence that cannot be surpassed by the younger generations in a short period of time. They must ensure that every stage they perform on their comeback is the best possible effect.
Only in this way can we compete with the younger generations.
"What kind of pressure? Your return performance will definitely not be bad, and haven't the pre-sales already been released?"
The great success of "Queendom" and "Feel My Rhythm" once again allowed Red Velvet to accumulate many new fans, and the pre-sale results of this new song just prove this.
The sales volume is getting higher and higher every time, which makes the whole S-M excited.
Logically speaking, Bae Zhuhyun shouldn't be under so much pressure.
Pei Zhuhyun did not answer directly, but put her chin on her hand, crossed her legs, and asked slowly: "Xin'an, do you have a new video blogger on your website who has a style similar to yours but suddenly became popular?"
"Well...it happens every year, what's wrong?"
"Then people have more views than you and gradually have more fans than you. How do you feel?"
"Isn't that great? I wish we had a few more newcomers, and then I could have a great live broadcast."
The reputation of the No. 1 brother of Xiaopo Station's live broadcast is not easy to bear.
Liu Xin'an's answer made Pei Zhuxuan roll her eyes.
On the side, Kang Seulgi and Park Sooyoung laughed mercilessly.
"People need to make progress." Sun Shengwan raised her hand and patted Liu Xin'an on the shoulder. This guy was too tall, and it was difficult for her to pat his shoulder.
"Isn't it good to be in a state of ruin? Refuse to be involved!"
"Ah, really, I won't tell you anymore." Pei Zhuxuan angrily raised her foot and stepped on the man's big foot, and then left angrily.
Seeing that Bae Zhuhyun was angry with him, Liu Xin'an, instead of being nervous, actually breathed a sigh of relief. He glanced at Jiang Seulqi and Son Seungwan without revealing anything, and pointed outside.
After the two of them nodded, he quietly left the practice room and walked towards Cheng Taiqian's office nearby.
At this time, Cheng Taiqian didn't go out. He was preparing for the activities after Red Velvet's comeback.
During the return period, they will definitely have to put on a series of programs to promote them, so choosing some programs that are suitable for them becomes an important task.
The knock on the door made Cheng Taiqian subconsciously move his eyes from the computer in front of him to the door.
"Come in."
After receiving permission, the closed office door opened, and Liu Xin'an's figure unexpectedly came into Cheng Taiqian's eyes.
He was stunned for a moment, then stood up with a warm smile on his face.
"Xin'an, what's wrong?"
"Brother, can I excuse you for a moment?" Liu Xin'an sat opposite Cheng Taiqian and asked in a very sincere tone.
Can Cheng Taiqian refuse? With Liu Xin'an's current status and influence, no matter how busy he is now, he still has to take action to respond to Liu Xin'an.
"Just tell me if you have anything to say. Do you want my help?"
"Uh... I would like to ask about Zhuhyun's schedule on December 9th."
"December 9th..." Cheng Taiqian turned over the calendar on the table and muttered the date at the same time. Then he was stunned and looked up at Liu Xin'an, his eyes full of ridicule.
He is Bae Zhuhyun's manager, and Bae Zhuhyun is the only artist under him who is in love... It can be said that apart from these two people, he is the one who knows the most about the love process of Bae Zhuhyun and Liu Xinan.
pass.
He remembers small things like anniversaries better than his own birthday!
"What have you prepared for Irene for the anniversary?"
"Brother, you know."
"That's for sure, let me take a look...Ah, it doesn't seem possible. There were a lot of activities that day, and there were also recordings."
Cheng Taiqian frowned and read out the plans for that day's activities.
It's not that he didn't think that this day was the anniversary of their relationship, but he didn't expect that Liu Xin'an, a person who values his work very much, would actually ask Pei Zhuhyun to take leave.
He has also known Liu Xin'an for many years. In his impression... it seems that when Pei Zhuxuan came back last time, Liu Xin'an forcefully asked him to give Pei Zhuxuan a day off because he was too busy and too hard.
Other than that, never once.
"ah..."
"Is it important? It's important. I'll think of a way."
"Is it an itinerary that is difficult to avoid?"
"It's a bit troublesome, but if you tell me in advance, it will be easier to arrange in advance. It won't be possible if you ask me at last minute."
Liu Xin'an lowered his head in thought. After a moment, he raised his head firmly.
"Then please help me think of a solution, Brother Taiqian."
This answer once again exceeded Cheng Taiqian's expectations.
And along with it, a serious feeling began to permeate the office.
He knows Liu Xin'an's character well.
Now that Liu Xin'an has made this decision, it means that Liu Xin'an has prepared a big one for Bae Zhuhyun on this second anniversary of their relationship.
"You don't want to drag Irene to register for marriage that day, do you?"
Cheng Taiqian complained casually, thinking that this was unlikely.
But when he finished saying this, without waiting for Liu Xin'an's answer, he raised his head and looked at Liu Xin'an again in shock.
Then, his lips trembled slightly: "Axi...really?"
"Uh...no, no, it's not that exaggerated."
"Huh...you scared me to death."
"Brother, you really don't want me to marry Irene?"
"Of course not, it's just that this period is too sensitive."
It all depends on God's will if you want to completely conceal the matter of proposing.
It would be better not to expose it, but once it is exposed, the marriage will be exposed during the return period.
No matter how much fans consume CP, they will never like an artist who is busy with personal matters during business hours.
He said that Liu Xin'an would not be so brainless, and he knew how cautious this kid was.
A big event like getting married... would definitely not be done at this time.
"Okay, I'll try to adjust the recording. If possible, I'll let you know in advance."
"Well, if you can, please let me know as soon as possible."
"Okay, it seems you have prepared a lot. Don't worry, your efforts will not be in vain."
Of course, adjustments can be made. If the program team disagrees, he will report it to Director Kim and ask S-M to come forward and help Bae Zhuhyun adjust her work.
Liu Xin'an's face, S-M will definitely sell it.
Of course, if possible, it would be best if he would resolve the matter without reporting it.
———
Now that we have come to S-M, we definitely can’t just watch Red Velvet.
Yoo Shin-an still has some acquaintances in S-M, such as Girls' Generation where Kim Taeyeon is...
He and Kim Taeyeon have exchanged numbers a long time ago, and they have always been in a relationship where they greet each other on holidays.
We would chat a little from time to time. Kim Taeyeon was a little interested in games, and sometimes she would come to him to ask him what interesting games he had recently played.
Of course I've heard of Girls' Generation's famous name Lee Cheng Lu, but when facing Kim Taeyeon, Lee Cheng Lu didn't act as arrogant and comfortable as she did in front of Bae Joo Hyun and the others.
She stood obediently in front of this woman who was nearly two inches shorter than her, with a much more obedient smile on her face.
This made Jin Yelin, who came to play with her, very dissatisfied.
"Sister Cheng Lu, why do you act so different from how you behave in front of us!"
Before Li Chenglu could stare back, Kim Taeyeon's joking voice made Li Chenglu unable to open her mouth.
I saw this beautiful woman who was small but full of aura raised her eyes slightly, and the slightly raised corners of her lips seemed to have a kind of magical power that made people feel guilty.
"Oh? Did I make Cheng Lu feel so terrible?"
"No, it's mainly because I've been liking Girls' Generation since 2009...so when I first see the idols I've always liked, I just can't let go."
"Hahahaha~"
That laughter, which was more bold than Bae Zhuhyun's, sounded in Girls' Generation's practice room, and this outrageous laughter made Liu Xin'an terrified.
Did S-M specifically look for female artists with exaggerated laughter to be team leaders?
Kim Taeyeon is like this, and Bae Joo Hyun is like this too.
"Ah, what's your expression?"
"You have a nice smile."
"Axi..."
Kim Taeyeon is several years older than Liu Xin'an, so she can swear at Liu Xin'an without any pressure.
Don't think she's stupid! This guy must be sarcastic!
It won't be a fight, because someone will teach Liu Xin'an a lesson for Kim Taeyeon.
The severe pain in his waist made Liu Xinan purse his lips. He smiled sheepishly at Kim Taeyeon, and then looked at Bae Zhuhyun beside him begging for mercy.
When Pei Zhuxuan saw Liu Xinan relenting, he stopped teaching this guy a lesson. Instead, he continued to chat with him with a smile.
Taking advantage of Bae Zhuhyun's chat, Jiang Seulgi walked up to Liu Xinan, and the two took a step back in tacit agreement, and then lowered their voices in tacit agreement again.
"How about it?"
“Find ways to adjust the schedule.”
"Does it have to be December 9th?"
"Well... two years would be more commemorative. She would have to do other things on her birthday."
Liu Xin'an mainly thinks that it is more meaningful to turn the dating anniversary into the anniversary of the successful proposal.
Moreover, the dating anniversary itself is a holiday shared by him and Bae Zhuhyun, and Bae Zhuhyun's birthday... is just Bae Zhuhyun's birthday.
He had no sense of involvement.
"What are you two muttering about?"
While they were chatting, Bae Zhuhyun's voice suddenly sounded, interrupting his conspiracy with Kang Seulgi.
Liu Xin'an's expression didn't change at all. He naturally...said the words that made Jiang Seulqi almost jump up and punch him.
"Seulgi is trying to convince me to take you out for lunch."
"Seulgi!"
"Ah...it's not...I..."
Jiang Seulqi was dumbfounded. She hesitated for a long time and couldn't explain the reason. In the end, she could only stare at Liu Xin'an angrily.
But the only person who answered her was Liu Xinan's slightly apologetic eyes.
For his plan and for the bright future of him and Bae Zhuhyun, he thought Jiang Seulgi would be willing to sacrifice herself.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Jiang Seulqi seemed to understand what he meant. In the end, she lowered her head and accepted her fate: "Yes, I want to have a big meal."
"Really... But let's go out to eat today. Cheng Lu is here. I'm here to treat you. Does Sister Taeyeon want to come?"
"Oh! Of course I'll go if someone's treating me."
Jiang Seulqi raised her head in surprise, her face full of excitement.
Yes, there was an unexpected gain. She forgave Liu Xin'an!
...
After spending a fulfilling day at S-M, Liu Xin'an's purpose of this trip has been achieved.
He originally wanted to come to S-M, ask Sung Tae-cheon about Bae Joo-hyun's future itinerary, and at the same time hammer out his two contacts.
Of course, this kind of thing can actually be done remotely on a mobile phone. As for why we have to come to S-...
In fact, the reason is very simple, he just wants to meet his girlfriend.
There are few people in this world who would be bored by Bae Zhuhyun's beauty, and Liu Xin'an is naturally one of them.
Who doesn't want to see a beautiful woman more than once, let alone that this beautiful woman is his girlfriend.
After separating from Li Chenglu at the door of the house, Liu Xin'an returned home, hung up his coat and lazily sank into the sofa.
"Why..."
He let out a long sigh, stretched out his hand tiredly and rubbed his brow, thinking deeply.
Time has been guaranteed, and the helpers he should find have been found. The next thing that gives him the biggest headache is.
How should I prepare for this proposal?
It is undeniable that Li Chenglu's proposal is very good.
He proposed it naturally, then took out the ring he had prepared, and in a suitable scene and a suitable atmosphere, he proposed in an extremely natural way. This is indeed a very beautiful thing.
but...
Not passionate enough.
Liu Xin'an decided to consider this as an alternative.
Liu Xin'an picked up the phone again after thinking for a long time but couldn't figure out the reason.
He decided to take advantage of the developed Internet!
