The next morning, unusually, Bae Juhyun woke up earlier than Liu Xin’an.
The first thing she did after waking up was to vigorously push the man sleeping soundly beside her.
She might not be very strong, but it wasn’t a problem to handle a man who couldn’t fight back at all.
In the midst of pushing, Liu Xin’an slowly opened his eyes, first glanced at Bae Juhyun, who, despite her tousled hair, hadn’t lost any of her stunning beauty, then subconsciously peered at the sky outside the window.
The sky was light, but not particularly bright.
...Had his internal clock malfunctioned?
Wasn’t he usually waking up around seven in the morning?
While thinking this, Liu Xin’an supported himself on the bed with one hand and sat up with effort, rubbing his eyes with the other.
Bae Juhyun’s excited reply almost caught Liu Xin’an off guard.
He paused for a second, his arm supporting his body weakened, and with a "thump," he fell back onto the bed, closing his eyes.
"Why are you waking me up so early, do you need me to go to the bathroom?"
"Hey, aren’t we going out today? You should get up early to get ready, and I need to get ready too!"
Bae Juhyun really was excited until late last night.
She even ignored Liu Xin’an’s unruly hands, just excitedly snuggling in his arms, constantly talking about today’s plans.
The plan was to make a round trip the same day, not to stay overnight because tomorrow she needed to return to the company to prepare for a new album, so a round trip was best.
And since they decided on a round trip, their destination was limited to Seoul and its surrounding areas.
The city center was definitely not an option, unless Bae Juhyun had gone mad, or she planned to make all the entertainment places in the car.
She would possibly be recognized if she went out in that area, so the location had to be expanded to the suburbs around Seoul. For more chapters visit novel※fire.net
Though they called it the suburbs, it was actually just more ordinary compared to downtown Seoul.
There are still many such places, with Seoul being the only place in all of Korea that could show off; other places...
Bae Juhyun spared her country the criticism, deciding to give it some face.
These suburban places certainly didn’t have anything particularly good for their enjoyment, coupled with her identity.
This date, to put it plainly, was just Liu Xin’an taking Bae Juhyun out for a stroll, and they didn’t have to worry about their identities being exposed.
For celebrities, this definitely could be considered a date.
Liu Xin’an’s choice to go back to sleep grandly displeased Bae Juhyun, she pushed him vigorously again, and seeing him still unwilling to open his eyes, she decided to use her feet.
"Get up, or I’ll kick you out of bed."
"My dear lady, are you in such a hurry?"
"Dear lady? Who is your dear lady! Liu Xin’an, are you saying I’m old?"
Age was another taboo for Bae Juhyun after her figure; she hadn’t cared about it before, but now that she had a boyfriend two years her junior, it gradually started to bother her.
Of course, Liu Xin’an’s use of "dear lady" was a cultural difference that Bae Juhyun didn’t understand.
"Let me rephrase, my dear girlfriend, are you in such a hurry?"
"Of course, the earlier we go out, the longer we can play, don’t you want to walk hand in hand with me on the streets?"
"I do, but I think given your stamina, it’d be a success if you could walk for an hour." Liu Xin’an opened one eye and snickered.
He knew all too well how poor Bae Juhyun’s stamina was.
Sometimes when he annoyed her, and she chased him to hit him,
after just two laps around the couch, Bae Juhyun would collapse on it, unwilling to move and even demanding he come over so she could hit him a couple of times.
What kind of logic was that?
However, even though he complained verbally, Liu Xin’an would always go over and let his girlfriend punch him a few times, then pretend to be hurt where he was hit.
Because afterwards, he would receive a sweet kiss from little Bae.
Overall, it was quite a win.
But his disdain angered little Bae.
An hour? Liu Xin’an was really underestimating her.
No matter what, she had once endured 11-hour daily hellish training, when being so exhausted that crying was common, and numerous trainees, including herself, were often scolded to tears.
She had survived those days; could she not withstand an hour now?
Confident Bae Juhyun forgot that that version of herself was from seven or eight years ago, and her stamina was certainly not as good as it used to be.
She hadn’t realized this yet.
"A bet? What do you want to bet?"
Liu Xin’an perked up, lying on his side, his head propped by his hand, watching Bae Juhyun with great interest as she spoke tough.
Betting was certainly fine, as he wouldn’t lose either way; what could Bae Juhyun possibly demand? He didn’t feel there was anything he couldn’t agree to for Bae Juhyun.
Even if it wasn’t a bet, if Bae Juhyun asked, he would still try to make it happen.
No, on further thought, there didn’t seem to be anything he needed her to do for him.
After scanning Bae Juhyun from top to bottom, Liu Xin’an pondered.
It seemed... apart from that final step, there wasn’t much left that he needed her help with.
No, no, that’s a bit of a loss because he couldn’t think of a good reward.
