In fact, before coming here, Liu Xin'an was prepared for Korea's terrifying age concept.
But for now, he just came here to travel and has not yet come into contact with all kinds of people here. Pei Zhuxuan is his only Korean friend at the moment.
The other party never mentioned this matter, so Liu Xin'an subconsciously treated the other party as his friend in China.
But now that he was mentioned so violently by the other party, he also realized that it was quite impolite for him to keep calling others by their first names.
His mother told him that when he sees someone older than him here, he should call him brother or sister, or at least add a word of honor.
Of course, you can be more casual when you meet someone younger than yourself.
He recalled the Bae Zhuhyun he saw yesterday. The girl was very beautiful, but she looked younger, maybe not as old as him, right?
With this idea in mind, Liu Xin'an slowly said: "I was born in 1993, well...according to the calculation here, I should be 28 years old this year, right?"
Because the countries you live in are different, the age calculation is also different.
According to domestic calculations, he is 27 years old, which is one year younger than here.
"Oh~ you are 28 this year."
"Why, should you call me brother? I know the rules here."
"Although I really want to do this, unfortunately, I am older than you."
"Huh?!" Liu Xin'an didn't believe it. Pei Zhuxuan looked like he was in his early 20s...how could he be older than him?
"Lying is a very bad habit, Miss Bae Zhuhyun."
"Who lied to you? If you don't believe me, I can show you my ID card. I was born in 1991."
When Pei Zhuxuan told this matter with a bit of pride, Liu Xin'an was naturally suspicious.
"I don't believe it. You don't look like someone who is almost 30. I don't believe you if you say you are only 24.25."
Being mistaken for being young by others is a very joyful thing for a girl.
But Pei Zhuxuan didn't feel very happy. On the contrary, she actually felt a little angry at Liu Xin'an for not believing in her.
She didn't know why she was so angry. Obviously there were so many people in the outside world who didn't believe her... She was not dissatisfied with those people. On the contrary, she was very dissatisfied with a neighbor whom she had only known for more than a day.
The girl pursed her lips and her behavior of curling up on the recliner finally changed.
She stretched out her legs, and her white and smooth legs were stretched out under her pajamas, and because she had been curled up for a long time, her pink toes were raised as much as possible.
After wrinkling her nose and stretching comfortably, she quickly ran back to the room.
She wants to show her ID card to the other party so that the other party can believe her!
On the other side, Liu Xin'an didn't realize that Pei Zhuxuan was no longer on the balcony at this time. He waited for a while but didn't get Pei Zhuxuan's answer, so he continued: "Being young is not something to be embarrassed about. Besides, I
As a foreigner, we don’t value age as much as people in your country do.”
He was answered with silence.
Liu Xin'an waited patiently for a few more seconds, but after there was still no response, he asked doubtfully: "Pei Zhuhyun?"
Still silent.
But the ringing of the doorbell made him startled.
After the experience of almost missing the takeout just now, he went to the balcony without closing the balcony door this time.
Similarly, he did not close the door connecting the bedroom and the living room, so the doorbell could be heard even from the balcony.
The confused Liu Xin'an thought Pei Zhuhyun was next door. He quickly put on his shoes and did not forget to inform his neighbor, although he did not know that the neighbor was no longer on the balcony.
"I'll open the door first, wait a minute."
After saying that, he hurriedly ran to the door.
When he reached the entrance, he didn't even have time to look at the peephole, so he opened the door.
"Excuse me... hmm?"
The petite girl standing in front of him stunned him.
The visitor was none other than Bae Zhuhyun, his next door neighbor who he thought was still on the balcony.
At this time, Bae Zhuhyun was wearing a coat and a pink and white T-shirt on her upper body.
Wearing a pair of loose sports pants, the girl had her long hair loose, looking up at him, and seemed to be holding something in her hand.
"Uh...what's wrong?"
This sense of déjà vu made Liu Xinan feel inexplicably uncomfortable. He cleared his throat and asked doubtfully.
Pei Zhuhyun didn't say a word, but just raised the ID card he was holding in his hand.
There is a beautiful photo of Bae Zhuhyun on the small card, and some personal information of Bae Zhuhyun is written on the other side.
Her green-white jade finger pointed at the column where the date of birth was written, and then she raised her eyebrows at Liu Xin'an proudly.
"March 29, 1991...are you really from 1991?"
Liu Xin'an's shocked expression made Pei Zhuxuan frown. Why did this person still doubt her?
"You do not believe?"
"Well...it's not that I don't believe it, it's just that no matter how I look at it, you don't look like a 30-year-old woman...well, a woman."
It's definitely unreasonable to call a girl over 30.
But 30 is not too old, it’s just that Bae Joo Hyun doesn’t look that old.
It’s no wonder that although Liu Xin’an is a public figure, compared to real artists, he definitely doesn’t come into contact with as many people as the real artist Bae Zhuhyun does.
Maintenance costs for artists are often sky-high, so it's not surprising that many artists in their 40s or even 50s look the same as they did in 20.30.
But Liu Xin'an has never seen it. The biggest place he has been to in his life is the Top 100 Awards at Xiaopo Station. He has met some artists there, but he is not familiar with them and will not rush up to talk to them.
.
What's more, in his eyes, Bae Zhuhyun is just an ordinary person.
"At 30 years old, you should look old when driving, right?"
Bae Zhuhyun was very dissatisfied with Liu Xin'an's ideas, but she seemed to have forgotten that she was originally a more accepting person.
At this time, he would actually say such impolite words to a neighbor whom he had only known for a day.
"Ah, of course not, I'm just complimenting you."
Liu Xin'an quickly explained himself and at the same time gave a small compliment to the girl in front of him.
"snort..."
Seeing that the other party believed in him, Pei Zhuxuan gradually came out of the state of rising energy and blood.
She slowly lowered her head, no longer daring to look directly into the other person's eyes as before, and her whole body also switched from the aggressive state just now to a somewhat autistic look.
What was she doing... suddenly getting into a serious fight with a neighbor?
She may be crazy.
Liu Xin'an noticed something was wrong with Pei Zhuxuan. He was about to say something when he suddenly remembered that he and the other party were still standing at the door. Liu Xin'an turned around and glanced at his living room. After confirming that his home was now ready to receive guests, he turned sideways
body.
"Uh... why don't you come in and chat?"
Pei Zhuxuan, who had regained consciousness, shook her head violently. Don't be kidding. Even if she was not a public figure and was just an ordinary person, she would not be able to go to the opposite sex's home alone at this time.
Liu Xin'an knew what Pei Zhuxuan was worried about. He spread his hands and took a step back, making it clear that he didn't have any ill intentions.
"It's just a chat. I'm quite bored myself. If you're worried, you can leave the door open, or you can use your phone to talk to your friend."
"ah?"
Liu Xin'an smiled and made an inviting gesture, then lowered his head and found a pair of brand new slippers in the shoe cabinet.
Pei Zhuxuan looked at the snow-white hotel slippers placed in front of her. After pondering for a few seconds, she took a deep breath and said in a voice that was almost a whisper: "Then... I won't bother you."
She is probably crazy.
———
Liu Xin'an's home is much simpler than Bae Zhuhyun's home.
The huge living room didn't even have any decorations, not even a decent chair.
There is only a large TV hanging on the wall and a TV cabinet under the TV.
There is a table in front of the sofa, but there is nothing on it. He bought this table from outside this afternoon. It is really awkward not to have a decent coffee table at home. Although it is not very useful, Liu Xin'an still
Got one back.
However, I used it directly today, and Liu Xin'an felt proud of his wit.
After leading Pei Zhuxuan to the living room, Liu Xin'an pointed to the sofa.
"You sit down first and I'll bring in the fried chicken I put on the balcony."
"oh..."
"This is the TV remote control. If you have any programs you want to watch, you can watch them."
"Um..."
In fact, Bae Zhuhyun didn't really listen to what the other person said. This was the first time in her nearly 30 years of life that she went to the opposite sex's home alone.
What should I say...
Nervousness was not a factor. After she came in, she felt that she really thought too much. Liu Xin'an obviously didn't know her identity. Her messy thoughts were really insulting to Liu Xin'an.
If it’s not nervousness, then the only emotion left is regret.
Even if the other party does not have any thoughts about him, this approach of putting himself in "danger" is indeed too reckless.
The so-called dangerous situation here does not mean how dangerous Liu Xin'an is, but that what she did is too dangerous.
A female artist ran to a man's house in the middle of the night...if it was exposed, she would really be able to leave the industry at the speed of light.
Well... Not only do I have to withdraw from the industry, I guess I also have to lose all the money I have earned over the years.
Just as he was thinking wildly, Liu Xin'an, who went to get the fried chicken, came back.
He put the fried chicken on the table, then sat on the other side of the sofa, smiling friendly at Pei Zhuxuan who was sitting far away from him.
"Let's eat something together?"
"No, no... I don't really like fried chicken."
"You really don't like this?"
"Um..."
In fact, she is embarrassed to say the reason why she doesn't like fried chicken.
Before she debuted, she once ate too much fried chicken and lost her appetite.
Since then, she has stayed away from fried chicken.
"Then do you want something to eat? I'll treat you. You are the first friend I made when I came here."
She already knew about the generosity of Chinese people when she came into contact with Chinese fans.
So, after thinking about it, she shook her head and refused.
"I'd better order it myself."
What she refused was Liu Xin'an's kindness, but she wanted to have some food together...
In fact, she was already hungry from the time Liu Xin'an first told her that he was eating on the balcony.
