Celebrity Neighbor: My girlfriend is a big star?-Chapter 1115 - 497: Intimacy Between Lovers
Logically speaking, it shouldn't be like this. He takes a shower every day without fail.
Yes, there's not much opportunity to find places to scrub in Korea, but he also scrubs himself during his own showers.
How could he possibly have body odor!
Utterly puzzled, Liu Xin'an reluctantly put down the bottle of perfume.
Maybe... he was just overthinking it.
...
At eleven in the morning, Liu Xin'an finally knocked on the door of Bae Juhyun and the others' dorm.
It's no longer the era where cameras had to be carried around to film celebrities. Inside the dorm, there were only the five of Bae Juhyun and one Li Chenglu, with no filming staff present. All filming was done via fixed cameras, a method that spared the artists the awkwardness and embarrassment from the presence of crew.
Li Chenglu answered the door, and upon recognizing Liu Xin'an, she only opened the door slightly, cautiously watching him.
"What are you doing at the girls' dorm?"
"...I'm inspecting the dorms."
"A guy inspecting the dorms? Are you crazy?"
Liu Xin'an glared, prompting Li Chenglu to open the door fully with a cheeky grin, letting him in.
The living room had quite a few people. Sure, people could sleep in, but 11 o'clock is too unrealistic.
They are female celebrities, after all—they need to maintain their public image!
"Good morning, Xin'an oppa~"
"It's eleven o'clock."
"Isn't eleven o'clock morning?"
Kim Yerin's retort left Liu Xin'an momentarily speechless. After a brief pause, he nodded absentmindedly.
"You have a point."
His concession made everyone laugh, and upon hearing Liu Xin'an's voice, Bae Juhyun also peeked out from the bedroom, a gentle smile appearing on her cheeks as she looked at the man at the doorway.
"Morning."
"Morning, how's the packing going?"
He was there not just for a chat but to gather everyone for lunch and then continue with today's shop work.
"Everything's ready; we can set off anytime!"
Bae Juhyun spoke as she walked out of the bedroom.
And today, her outfit gave Liu Xin'an a bright surprise.
Yesterday, it was a stunning, elegant white off-shoulder dress, but today, Bae Juhyun's look was a neat-priced blue shirt paired with jeans.
Her long hair was tied in a high ponytail, and a pair of round-framed glasses adorned her fair, delicate face.
This sleek, intellectual outfit perfectly hit Liu Xin'an's preferences.
"Absolutely beautiful."
He swore his compliment was devoid of flattery, purely admiring the pretty person in front of him.
Bae Juhyun flashed a joyful smile, delighted by her boyfriend's praise, something any woman would love to hear.
This early morning display of affection made the others in the dorm feel a bit uncomfortable.
"Hurry up and go, are they shooting a drama this early in the morning or what!"
"Exactly, let's go eat!"
Bae Juhyun covered her mouth with a light laugh, stepping energetically to Liu Xin'an's side, then her nose twitched slightly as a puzzled expression formed on her face.
"Did you not spray?"
Liu Xin'an paused, then awkwardly grinned.
He slightly lowered his head, leaning towards Bae Juhyun's ear.
He decided to ask Bae Juhyun directly what she meant by that.
"Juhyun-ah... um, do I have any weird smell on me?"
They weren't just new lovebirds; they'd been together for a year and a half! Such questions were nothing to fear asking.
Liu Xin'an had a somewhat thick skin.
Bae Juhyun was taken aback, then couldn't hide her amusement as her eyes arched with a smile.
"What? What are you talking about? There's no smell at all." 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
"Then..."
"Dummy!"
Bae Juhyun huffed gently, arrogantly bypassing Liu Xin'an to join her members.
Even her beautiful hair that slightly rose as she walked past, combined with the refreshing fragrance she carried, left him somewhat dazed.
He... had smelled this before.
Smell...?
Liu Xin'an's eyes widened as he seemingly understood her intention.
"Get in the car."
"Ah! Wait a moment."
Liu Xin'an, who came to call them to leave, fumbled, asking everyone to wait a moment just as they all had gotten into the car.
"Did you forget something?"
Li Chenglu curiously watched Liu Xin'an, who went back to his room, pondering aloud.
The Red Velvet members all shook their heads.
Fortunately, Liu Xin'an didn't keep everybody waiting long. In just a few minutes, he reappeared before them all.
He seemed unchanged from the moment he had returned earlier.
Yet when Liu Xin'an opened the passenger door, the faint, familiar scent wafted to Bae Juhyun's nose, and her previously stoic face once again broke into a radiant smile.
Seated in the second row, she let out a peculiar sound, "Ha," followed by a slap on Liu Xin'an's shoulder.
The "slap" echoed clearly in the quiet car.
None of the others appeared stunned by Bae Juhyun's action. Ever since she got together with Liu Xin'an, it seemed she'd reverted to the innocent, carefree days a decade ago.
Her adorable mannerisms left them filled with admiration.
But Liu Xin'an understood that this was her way of expressing happiness at the moment.
Meanwhile, he let out a sigh of relief, confirming that there was indeed a tacit understanding between him and Bae Juhyun~
———
During this trip to China, aside from other activities, Bae Juhyun and the others had thoroughly enjoyed all sorts of Chinese dishes.
Li Chenglu's prior scoping around this area really helped them discover many delicious little eateries.
