Celebrity Neighbor: My girlfriend is a big star?-Chapter 1097 - 491: Kang Seulgi: I Want to Sneak a Bite!

"Yeah, yeah, you've worked hard with Liu Xin'an. I'll sneak out later to get the cake, don't worry."

When it came to this matter, Bae Juhyun instinctively distanced herself from Liu Xin'an. She sneakily glanced at the man who was chatting with the fans, lowered her voice, "I'm counting on you, Seulgi. Remember to put it in the fridge when you bring it back."

"Got it~"

"I'll hang up now."

"Okay~"

The brief call ended, and Bae Juhyun put away her phone, turning to see Liu Xin'an's curious and handsome face.

For a moment, her breath hitched. Then, she put on an innocent expression, "Chenglu anticipated this situation ahead of time, the kids will know what to do."

"Li Chenglu sure thinks fast."

"Your family is really smart; they won't think I'm dumb, right?" Bae Juhyun was quite upset; they hadn't thought of this situation.

Sometimes, after spending a lot of time with Liu Xin'an and Li Chenglu, she increasingly felt the differences in their thinking.

You could explain it by their different environments, or just a simple disparity in intelligence.

Anyway, Bae Juhyun never thought she was smart; if she was, how could she not even go to college...

"What nonsense are you spouting every day? Stop thinking about such weird things."

"Boo hoo~"

Scolded, Bae Juhyun pouted with a look that evoked pity, once again causing the fans watching to scream.

At the same time, some indignant fans shouted at Liu Xin'an, "Don't bully Juhyun, Xin'an!"

This left Liu Xin'an both amused and annoyed.

"What are you talking about? Did you understand our conversation?"

When communicating with Bae Juhyun, he surely stuck to the Korean she was accustomed to, especially since they were filming.

Though this group's show would later be released simultaneously online, in terms of language, they definitely used Korean which Bae Juhyun was more familiar with.

"Didn't understand, but Juhyun is so cute!"

"Cute means righteous, huh?"

"Exactly!"

During this banter, Liu Xin'an could confirm this kid was also a regular in the live stream.

He no longer continued with idle chatter with the fans but looked over at the brightly smiling Bae Juhyun.

"Let's move to another place."

"Okay~"

———

After about an hour or so of bustling activity, the number of customers in the shop had visibly reduced by more than half.

Having skillfully mastered the art of making cold drinks, Kim Yerin could even chat with her members while working.

So, now with some downtime, they were able to enjoy a brief moment of rest.

"Ah~ I'm really exhausted, how about we temporarily close the shop for a bit?" She stretched lazily, saying something rather inappropriate.

Park Sooyoung laughed as she stuffed a strawberry into Kim Yerin's mouth and turned to ask Son Seungwan at the counter, "Seungwan, how many orders have we processed?"

"Hmm... We've sold over 40 cups already."

"Oh! We must have made a lot of money then."

Son Seungwan nodded, calculating that with an average profit of 12 bucks per cup, deducting half for the owner leaves 6 bucks.

Then factoring in 10% for Liu Xin'an...

"Do we really have to give Liu Xin'an that 10%?"

Thinking about handing over more than 40 bucks to Liu Xin'an, Son Seungwan felt a pang of heartache.

Speaking of Liu Xin'an, Kang Seulgi hurriedly took off her apron, turned to look at Li Chenglu, hesitated for a second then decided not to call her.

Compared to her task of fetching the cake, the store needed Li Chenglu's help more.

"I'll go get the cake Juhyun ordered, and tonight we still need to prepare Liu Xin'an's birthday surprise."

"Not only do we have to give Xin'an that 10%, but also a birthday surprise?"

"Maybe if we make Xin'an happy, he'll gladly give back that 10%." Park Sooyoung said lazily, eating strawberries.

This also offered the few annoyed people there an interesting solution.

Yes, after Liu Xin'an's delighted acceptance of their birthday surprise, they'd naturally ask for that 10% back.

Hmm... Do you think he'd agree?

"No worries, if you can't manage, just let Juhyun ask him."

Li Chenglu concluded firmly—can't manage? Did anyone ask for Bae Juhyun's opinion?

This made everyone considerably relieved, except for Kang Seulgi, who was preparing to head out to fetch Bae Juhyun's cake, with an odd look.

"Suddenly feeling bad for Liu Xin'an, helping us contact here and there, and in the end, still being exploited by us."

"Shoo, shoo, quickly go get your cake! Oh! Chenglu doesn't need to go with you?"

Li Chenglu got up, looking at Kang Seulgi with a questioning gaze, the latter waved her hand indicating it was unnecessary.

"I can manage on my own; it's just picking up a cake, if Chenglu isn't at the shop, real trouble might happen."

"Don't get yourself lost then."

"No way!"

Confidently, Kang Seulgi declared, then grabbed a camera for selfies and left the shop.

Of course, the program crew wouldn't miss an interesting process like this, Kang Seulgi, without the company of Bae Juhyun, Liu Xin'an, Li Chenglu—the three who understood Chinese—completing the cake pickup alone, might be a very interesting segment!

Stepping outside, Kang Seulgi cautiously observed the area, while her appearance caused excited cheers from some fans who lingered around the shop.

She quickly gestured for everyone to be quiet and carefully asked them in English.

"Have you seen Irene and Liu Xin'an?"

"Irene and Xin'an are probably at the plaza over there."
