Celebrity Neighbor: My girlfriend is a big star?-Chapter 1124 - 500: Want a Gift? Save Money First!

"Good morning."

Though Bae Juhyun's outfit today resembled swimwear, it was also a pretty ensemble that could be worn out.

Upon seeing his girlfriend's beautiful outfit, Liu Xin'an's eyes lit up and he replied with a smile, "Morning, how did you sleep?"

"I was a bit too excited about today, so I went to bed a bit late."

Bae Juhyun gave a playful yawn as she lazily leaned against Liu Xin'an, relaxing completely.

After all, she was sure Liu Xin'an would protect her and not let her fall.

And just as she thought, Liu Xin'an reached out to hold her small hand and pulled her to the side.

Since the filming hadn't officially started yet, it was time for the little couple to sweet talk after a night apart. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

When everyone was ready and stepped out of the dorm, Bae Juhyun slipped out of the man's large hand and, joining everyone, cutely greeted the camera with a cheery "Good morning."

The car was the familiar commercial vehicle, driven by Li Chenglu, with Liu Xin'an in the passenger seat, while in the back seat, the Red Velvet members were eagerly discussing today's itinerary.

"Ah! Did anyone inform the fans in advance that we won't be going to the store today?"

Mid-conversation, Son Seungwan suddenly remembered this and quickly asked Liu Xin'an.

Liu Xin'an nodded, as if this kind of thing could be forgotten: "I mentioned it online yesterday, Taekyon also mentioned it on your official blog and Bilibili account, so fans shouldn't be looking for you at the store."

"The nearby small shops must be quite upset, losing such big moneymakers," Li Chenglu joked while skillfully driving, his vivid description making everyone laugh.

"Will there be a lot of people at the beach at this time?"

"It should be fine. It's not a weekend or holiday, so it shouldn't be too crowded."

Today's itinerary wasn't public, and even if it were, security personnel were hired to ensure their filming went smoothly.

So there's really no need to worry too much about fans interrupting the shoot.

With Li Chenglu's skilled driving, it wasn't long before the car was parked steadily in a parking lot by the beach.

Bae Juhyun and the others got out of the car, the scorching sun making it difficult to keep their eyes open, so they quickly found a small shop with air conditioning to sit in.

After conversing with the shopkeeper and obtaining shooting permission, Lee Yeonju appeared before everyone.

The appearance of the general PD made Bae Juhyun and the rest tense up, wasn't today supposed to be a free activity day? Why was Lee Yeonju here... could it be she had another task for them?

"No tasks!" Kang Seulgi quickly exclaimed, having sensed the same thing.

Lee Yeonju waved her hand, looking helpless, "I'm not here to assign tasks, I'm here to bring you money."

Everyone was taken aback, looking at Lee Yeonju in confusion.

"Here's the thing, Chenglu said she really enjoyed the past few days with all of you, so she's sponsoring all of today's expenses."

As she explained, Lee Yeonju took out an envelope.

This thick envelope contained the 5000 dollars that Bae Juhyun and the others had worked hard to earn over the past days.

"Wow!"

Everyone exclaimed together, with Kang Seulgi, the closest to Li Chenglu, excitedly giving her a big hug.

Bae Juhyun took this wad of cash and naturally handed it to Son Seungwan.

As the group's recognized finance manager, having the money with Son Seungwan was reassuring.

If it were with Kang Seulgi and Kim Yerin... it might end up being spent on this or that.

Hmm... if it were with Park Sooyoung and Bae Juhyun, the result might be similar.

"But! This 5000 dollars is all the money you have for today's activities, including food, drinks, transport, and various play expenses," Lee Yeonju quickly poured cold water on everyone's excitement.

"Huh? Wasn't it supposed to be a free activity?"

"Yes, it is a free activity, but to experience the play equipment, like boating or jet skiing, you'll still need to spend money."

"...In other words, if we don't spend the money, does that mean it's ours?"

Son Seungwan found a loophole in the rules.

However, the slightly upturned corners of Lee Yeonju's mouth made Bae Juhyun and the others feel uneasy.

"We will select gifts for everyone based on the remaining balance from this trip."

"Huh?"

"The specific gifts will be revealed at that time, so please be prudent and careful in choosing how to spend this money~"

After speaking, Lee Yeonju slipped away, and just then, the ordered cold drinks were delivered as well.

The waitress, who clearly recognized them, had a stiff expression and didn't dare to look directly at them.

"Yo.. your drinks..."

She stammered as she distributed the drinks to everyone one by one.

Not everyone can remain calm when facing celebrities, as this young waitress found it challenging to do.

She wasn't necessarily a fan of Red Velvet, just a little afraid of being on camera.

After distributing the drinks, before she could breathe a sigh of relief, Bae Juhyun's sudden voice startled her.

"Um... can we return these now?"

"...Eh?"

"Don't look at me like that, it wasn't my suggestion."
