Celebrity Neighbor: My girlfriend is a big star?-Chapter 1323 - 566: His True Self, Her Perfection (Part 3)

The startled Liu Xin'an quickly cleared his throat with a loud cough, leaned close to the camera, and began counting down to himself.

"3..2..1.."

After the countdown, he removed the cloth covering the camera, turned it on, and brought his handsome face closer to the lens.

"It should be working now..."

Liu Xin'an murmured to himself, then moved away from the camera, allowing the full view of the bedroom to be captured by it.

The bed was still unmade, and the lifted corner of the quilt indicated that Liu Xin'an had just gotten up not long ago.

As for the bulge on the other side of the bed... it's not hard to guess that it was a person.

Moreover, the scattered black hair on the bed exposed the person's identity.

In fact, this scene could already be said to be testing the limits of the fans.

Which idol's fans could accept seeing their beloved female idol so lazily lying in bed with a man?

But they did it anyway.

There had been a lot of online discussions about Bae Juhyun's so-called "artist morality," but S-M has always been a leader in media manipulation in Korea.

Moreover, this year, the relationship between him and Bae Juhyun involved many things, so not just S-M, but others too hoped for improved public opinion about them.

As it turns out, this approach worked, and the so-called "artist morality" was soon replaced by "model couple."

Along with that, some fans, whose exact motives were unclear, but who were very supportive of the Bae Juhyun and Liu Xin'an couple, appeared as well.

At this point... both Liu Xin'an and Bae Juhyun were prepared to be scolded.

They were ready for this when they decided to appear on the couple variety show.

Liu Xin'an, having moved away from the camera, walked to the bedside, gently tucked in the corner of the quilt he had lifted when he got up, then gently combed Bae Juhyun's stray hair from her forehead.

"I've started the recording."

Bae Juhyun, with her delicate features, appearing as if without makeup, slowly opened her eyes, her sleepy, dazed look almost breaking Liu Xin'an's composure.

Who said that his girlfriend had no acting skills...

Wait a minute.

Is Bae Juhyun being a bit too natural with her performance?

Liu Xin'an had a fleeting thought that he sometimes saw Bae Juhyun like this upon waking.

Could it be... she'd get up and do her makeup before he woke up, then pretend to be asleep again?

Hmm...

This thought amplified in Liu Xin'an's mind to the point where he forgot they were even filming.

It was Bae Juhyun who first noticed Liu Xin'an zoning out.

This time, instead of pretending to be drowsy, she cheerfully yawned, then softly, in her little baby voice, greeted Liu Xin'an with a good morning.

"Morning..."

Finally, Liu Xin'an snapped out of it.

He gently reached to catch Bae Juhyun as she extended her arms for a hug, then turned his head to the camera and complained, "They should edit my face out at this point, otherwise I'm afraid I'll get beaten to death by your fans one day."

"Pfft... Hey, everyone wouldn't do something that extreme."

"Yet another day full of sin."

"Sin?"

"Having a girlfriend like you, who's loved by so many people, is already quite a 'sinful' thing."

Bae Juhyun hummed lightly and stretched lazily.

Her languid pose highlighted her graceful figure, and though her demeanor and that youthful face didn't match her age at all, making her look much younger,

still, her superior physique was very much age-appropriate.

Ah, assuming you don't look at the overall proportion.

Ahem, better not mention it...

"I'm going to freshen up."

"I'll go too, I'll go too!"

Seeing Liu Xin'an nearing the door, Bae Juhyun, who initially wanted to laze in bed a bit more, quickly got up, jumped off the bed, found her slippers, and hurriedly ran to Liu Xin'an's side.

When Liu Xin'an looked at her, she squinted her beautiful eyes and flashed a stunning smile.

The moment her smile bloomed, not only Liu Xin'an, but even Lee Yeonju, who had been watching them from behind the scenes all morning, couldn't help but exclaim.

"So beautiful."

This morning scene, if screenshotted and sent to advertisers, might just captivate some sponsors with Bae Juhyun's charm at that moment.

At that instant, and for countless audiences who would see this scene in the future, they all unanimously shared a bit of dislike towards the character facing that smile.

Yes, it was Liu Xin'an.

As for Liu Xin'an himself...

His whole body shivered, and a sense of dread instantly sobered him up.

Though not too flustered, as he had long gotten used to this feeling.

"PD, isn't Irene's performance a bit too formulaic?"

The writer next to Lee Yeonju, jotting down notes, leaned in and asked with some concern.

Liu Xin'an's performance was very genuine, as he had gotten used to the presence of cameras and treated them as non-existent.

But not Bae Juhyun, having undergone professional training, she always showcased her most perfect side in front of the camera.

When filmed separately, this was desirable.

Every shot of Bae Juhyun was aesthetically pleasing, fitting everyone's consistent impression of her.

But together with Liu Xin'an, this aesthetic felt less appropriate.

The perfect Bae Juhyun and the genuine Liu Xin'an created an interesting contrast, and more intriguing was when Bae Juhyun couldn't maintain her perfection and was playfully provoked by Liu Xin'an.

As an artist, Bae Juhyun was certainly skilled in keeping her composure.

But when it came to breaking Bae Juhyun's calm, Liu Xin'an had his special knack.

Just like now...

"Hey!!! Liu Xin'an!!"
