The phone was picked up quickly, almost as she dialed, Liu Xin'an had already answered the call,

"Juhyun?"

"Aren't you livestreaming?"

Hearing Liu Xin'an's voice on the other end, Bae Juhyun curiously asked.

"I'll start streaming later, is your meeting over?"

"Yeah, the production team was so mean, they actually said I have no friends and want me to learn to cook something on the day I invite them last minute, how do I invite friends like that, what if the food doesn't taste good!"

The man's gentle voice made Bae Juhyun feel very aggrieved, she pitifully acted cute, hoping to hear some comfort from Liu Xin'an.

Liu Xin'an didn't disappoint her expectations, he responded with a hearty laugh, and his tone was full of warmth.

"I trust our Juhyun will definitely whip up something super delicious to treat your friends. Have you thought about which friends to invite?"

"I haven't decided yet, I'll think about it later. Oh! And about the group show, the destination should be decided, it's either Chengdu or Xiamen."

"Oh? Nice choice, who picked Xiamen?"

Liu Xin'an pretended to be clueless, knowing well that colluding with the production team to deceive his girlfriend would definitely put him in hot water once the show airs.

It's not just about Bae Juhyun being mad at him, Kang Seulgi and the rest wouldn't let him off easily either.

But...

Isn't this too amusing to pass up?

"It was me, I asked Chenglu, and she said Gulangyu is super beautiful. Ah! I still need to call Chenglu because since we picked our travel spots ourselves, the production team wants us to arrange our own translators and guides. Can I ask Chenglu?"

"Hmm... I'm not sure if she has the time."

"No worries, as long as you agree."

Bae Juhyun's response made Liu Xin'an smile wryly, what does Li Chenglu agreeing or not have to do with him?

"Hey, why do you need my approval, am I that overbearing and tyrannical?"

"Hehe~ Then you better get to work, I'll be back soon."

"Okay, ask Chenglu."

"Sure~"

The brief call ended quickly, Liu Xin'an put away his phone and let out a long sigh.

Sitting across from him, Lee Yeonju showed a playful smile.

"Honestly, I've known Irene for so long, it's the first time I've seen such a cute side of her."

Although she didn't hear the specific details of the phone call, Liu Xin'an's gentle teasing voice was enough for her to imagine Bae Juhyun's state on the other end.

Is this the same occasionally adorably naive Irene she knew?

Liu Xin'an didn't say much, he just smiled slightly and stood up: "If there's nothing else, I'll head off first."

"Alright, call me later, thank you for today."

"No problem."

...

After hanging up the call with Liu Xin'an, Bae Juhyun quickly dialed Li Chenglu's number.

She was just chatting with Li Chenglu on WeChat yesterday, so Li Chenglu also knew she was at the company for a variety show meeting today.

Li Chenglu, who had been waiting for the call, picked up the phone just as quickly as Liu Xin'an.

"Juhyun unnie!"

"Chenglu, are you available now?"

Her inquiry made Li Chenglu pause for a moment, but she quickly reacted.

"Of course, is there something you need?"

"It's like this... The travel destination has been changed to the Xiamen you recommended, but since we've changed it last minute, the production team wants us to arrange our own guide and translator..."

"Ah! So, Juhyun unnie, you want me to be the translator?"

Li Chenglu's excited voice made Bae Juhyun feel relieved. Li Chenglu was someone who wore her emotions on her sleeve, and her excitement meant things were likely half-settled.

"Yes... Do you have time? Or can you participate?"

"Of course! I don't have much going on lately, just give me the specific time and I'll plan my schedule!"

Being able to participate closely in her favorite idol group's variety show was something this fan was extremely looking forward to.

She was different from the unofficial and unaccredited Liu Xin'an, who had no real chance to participate in the filming officially, unlike her!

"Phew, it's great you agreed, I can't confirm the exact time right now, I'll let you know when it's settled."

"Alright, wow, will I be on camera too?"

"Yes, is that alright?"

"No problem, no problem, it's not like I'm someone with something to hide, don't worry."

"So it's settled?"

"Yes!"

With Li Chenglu's confirmation, Bae Juhyun felt a huge sense of relief.

If possible, it's definitely better to travel with people you are familiar with.

The five of them were relatively shy people, but now that they could bring Li Chenglu along, Bae Juhyun felt extremely fortunate.

After hanging up, Bae Juhyun quickly went out to share the good news with the members, and soon, the practice room was filled with the excited cheers of the members.

However, amid the excitement, Kim Yerin's sudden words made everyone fall silent again.

Li Chenglu was great, but the problem was her looks and physique...

"If Chenglu unnie goes to the beach with us, she'll definitely stand out, won't she?"

Her murmuring caused all the members to fall silent, except Park Sooyoung, who wore a mischievous smile.
