Celebrity Neighbor: My girlfriend is a big star? - Chapter 1408 - 602: When Kim Jongkook and Liu Xin’an Team Up... (Part 2)
"Uh... I just zoned out a bit."
"Impossible! You're so serious about everything, how could you zone out during filming? You're definitely the one with the special identity!"
Detective Bae squinted her beautiful eyes, looked confidently at her innocent-looking boyfriend, and made her conclusion.
To be honest, when Bae Juhyun said this, both Liu Xin'an and Kim Jongkook felt a pang of anxiety in their hearts.
Thankfully... someone would always come to their rescue.
"Ah~ It feels like we're watching a dating show, how about letting Irene and Xin'an film alone today, and we become the audience?"
Whether the deduction is correct is not the point, but Juhyun's proud posture questioning Liu Xin'an was enough to make all the audience and even the MCs exclaim "kswl."
Well, HAHA's words immediately broke the sharp posture that Bae Juhyun had just a moment ago.
She stepped away from her deduction stance, and her fair cheeks blushed again.
In the end, she had to awkwardly say "It's definitely not me" and then went quiet again.
"But what Irene said makes a lot of sense. Xin'an is a very talented college graduate, and he knows many languages from different countries. Not understanding these rules... isn't that strange?"
Some people still listened to Juhyun's deduction, and as a fan who really loves the Bae Juhyun and Liu Xin'an couple, Jeon Somin was naturally very familiar with them.
She also knew well about the shining points on Liu Xin'an.
Apart from being considerate and gentle, his biggest shining point is being smart.
How could such a smart person not understand the rules?
However, most members still felt that Liu Xin'an was simply not quite used to outdoor filming, and even the most observant in RM, Kim Jongkook, didn't find Liu Xin'an suspicious, so everyone didn't continue to dwell on this matter.
Only Bae Juhyun occasionally glanced at her boyfriend.
"The relationship is great, I see Irene keeps glancing at Xin'an."
Yoo Jaesuk keenly noticed this point and teased.
Bae Juhyun hurriedly waved her hand, then continued to look suspiciously at her boyfriend.
"I still feel... he's not right."
This remark made Liu Xin'an sweat nervously again, sometimes... being too close in a couple isn't necessarily a good thing.
Just like now, a familiar Bae Juhyun can easily detect his oddness.
What's scarier is... even he himself doesn't feel anything odd about himself, it's truly frightening.
...
Although Liu Xin'an and Bae Juhyun are participating in the program as a couple gimmick, no one would let them form a couple in the pairing segment.
Because today Kim Jongkook would play the female role, and Bae Juhyun is a guest, the two as team captains started picking their members using the simplest method.
Kim Jongkook won the first round of rock-paper-scissors. Being in a team with Kim Jongkook is indeed likely to win the game, but the pressure of being in a team with him is definitely uncomfortable.
Kim Jongkook didn't hesitate at all, he glanced at Liu Xin'an, then his face beamed with a smile.
"Rather than seeing Xin'an with Irene in a team, I am more curious about their appearance when they face-off against each other."
"Well done, Jongkook!"
After all, this is RM, not a dating show of Liu Xin'an and Bae Juhyun, so mixing up their groups is better.
Furthermore... with two guests in one team, it's not convenient for the MCs to lead the guests.
"Xin'an come here."
"Wait, if Xin'an is in your team... how can we play?"
"What's up? Can't we play?"
"Xin'an, how are you at games?"
"Uh... I'm essentially a gaming streamer, does that count as being good at games?" Liu Xin'an said with a humble smile, then spoke proudly.
But soon, his girlfriend's backstab made his smile incredibly stiff.
"No, he's not good at games. His viewers often complain about how poorly Xin'an plays games, and he's stubborn with it."
Bae Juhyun's sudden burst of variety sense made everyone laugh out loud.
Sabotaging is common in shows, but a girlfriend sabotaging her boyfriend is the first time in RM all these years.
When everyone laughed so hard they couldn't stand straight, Liu Xin'an looked gloomy: "Did you really have to say that?"
"Everyone says so, and now I'm certain you're the bad guy."
"Why?"
"Just a feeling, I feel like you're not a good person!"
This ridiculous intuition made Liu Xin'an feel helpless, filming has just started, and his identity was really guessed right by Bae Juhyun, and judging by Bae Juhyun's look... she seemed very certain about it.
Luckily, not too many people have been swayed by Bae Juhyun's rhythm, at most, people are only suspicious of him now.
"Irene is in great form today, is it because her boyfriend is here?"
"No, I just want to compete against him properly!"
Ms. Bae confidently patted her cheeks, her words full of expectation and excitement.
Liu Xin'an has already been selected, soon, the teams are divided.
On Bae Juhyun's side, there's Yoo Jaesuk, Yang Sechan, and Song Jihyo.
While Kim Jongkook's side has Liu Xin'an, HAHA, and Jeon Somin.
Right, the oldest, Ji Seokjin, unfortunately became the odd one out and then resided in Kim Jongkook's team.
As for the "couple" distribution...
The real fake couple Kim Jongkook and Liu Xin'an are together, HAHA with Jeon Somin, and Bae Juhyun with the main MC Yoo Jaesuk, Yang Sechan with Song Jihyo.
Overall, in terms of strength, Bae Juhyun's team is utterly crushed.
But thankfully, they still have Yoo Jaesuk.
And the first game is Yoo Jaesuk's specialty, a knowledge quiz.
RM has been around for more than ten years, and the MCs have aged from young to older.
Making them run and tear name tags like young people isn't realistic, so the game showdown has evolved from physical contests to more entertaining little games.
"The knowledge quiz is divided into three areas, common sense, entertainment, and culture, with buzzer priority determining the answer order, the first buzzer is..." Seoin PD spoke while raising a wooden ladle.
"The female in the couple has to smash the ladle over the male's head, the first to smash it gains the right to leisurely answer!"
The ladle isn't actually hard, it just looks intimidating.
But in variety shows, exaggeration is a must.
Liu Xin'an touched the wooden ladle, then experimentally tapped it lightly on his own head.
A muffled "bang" made Liu Xin'an instinctively exclaim "Ah!"
"It hurts, right, Xin'an." HAHA noticed Liu Xin'an's action and jokingly teased.
Liu Xin'an nodded, his gaze landing on Kim Jongkook, with a somewhat pitiful expression: "Brother, be gentle."
Kim Jongkook's small eyes widened: "Hey, it doesn't hurt, it's not painful at all."
"What do you mean not painful, I just tried, it still hurts quite a bit."
"Don't worry, which type of question are you confident in?"
"Um... Considering common sense, maybe I haven't lived here long enough, and I'm only half-informed about entertainment, brother should choose culture."
"OK."
While Liu Xin'an's side is strategizing, Bae Juhyun and Yoo Jaesuk are also communicating.
"Irene, don't worry about oppa, just smash it hard!"
Knowing that Bae Juhyun might not dare to use too much force, Yoo Jaesuk laughed and comforted the junior.
Bae Juhyun nodded vigorously, although she's a bit reserved here, she also knows Yoo Jaesuk prefers juniors who are serious about recording the show.
If she doesn't dare to hit, resulting in a loss, Yoo Jaesuk might be displeased, so hitting hard is a must!
"If it's Yoo Jaesuk oppa, it doesn't matter which of the three questions is asked."
"Of course." Yoo Jaesuk is full of confidence.
Seeing everyone ready, Seoin PD pushes up five bowls with lids.
Although it's ladle hitting, how many will be used depends purely on luck.
As the word "start" appears, Kim Jongkook lunges to the middle box, snatching it before everyone else, then pulls out... three wooden ladles.
Then, he returns to Liu Xin'an's side and raises the ladle high.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
After three muffled bangs, everyone is stunned, while Liu Xin'an stands up like nothing happened, raising his hand high.
"Liu Xin'an!" He shouted his own name.
And the members of other teams are completely bewildered.
"Hey! How do you play this!"
