But teasing was definitely inevitable.
"You’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you? Coming here to stir things up, huh? When you start your broadcast, I’ll get the top supporter rank. If you don’t play games with me, I’ll report you."
This time, Old E didn’t respond. Liu Xin’an could see in the background that this person was still idling in his live stream.
He didn’t continue to pay attention to his friend and instead focused on his own streaming content.
Soon, he dived into the topic of how to squeeze the most out of his employees...
He had watched all of Wang Lao Ju’s "Sun Prison" series, and when it came to creating program effects, he had mastered it thoroughly.
The cheerful atmosphere began to spread in the live stream.
Meanwhile, Bae Juhyun, who had finished her call with Li Chenglu, had already arrived at the company.
Speaking in a calm voice, she greeted Kang Seulgi, who was stretching her body in the practice room. After hanging her coat on a nearby rack, she took her coffee and sat in a corner, biting on the straw while tapping away on her phone.
After finishing her stretches, Kang Seulgi slumped over without much bone structure and plopped down beside Bae Juhyun, curiously resting her chin on one hand.
"Why are you here so early?"
Bae Juhyun looked up, seemingly puzzled: "What time should I be here?"
"Because Liu Xin’an won’t let you leave. As soon as you try to leave, he hugs your waist with a face full of reluctance, and then you soften and agree... Ah!"
Kang Seulgi had to snap out of her imagination, mainly because Bae Juhyun’s hand-chopping skills had become increasingly refined.
It hurt a lot when she hit people.
"If you have nothing to do, you could chew on a lighter."
"Chew on a lighter? What does that mean?"
Bae Juhyun was taken aback, shook her head, and turned off her phone before setting it aside.
She had been influenced by Liu Xin’an’s fans. After they figured out she sometimes read and replied to private messages, they were very enthusiastic about teaching her some peculiar jargon from a certain platform.
"chew on a lighter," which Bae Juhyun had learned from the fans.
She didn’t understand the meaning, but the phrase seemed to fit the current situation.
After all, Kang Seulgi had nothing better to do! For original chapters go to novel✶fire.net
Putting down her coffee, Bae Juhyun tied up her long hair and then stretched her somewhat stiff body, mimicking Kang Seulgi’s earlier movements.
"Alright! Let’s practice!"
She changed the subject and walked to the music control computer, playing music that they were nearly sick of hearing.
Practicing, after all, was often monotonous and tedious.
If it were right after their debut, they might still maintain excitement and anticipation for their work as artists.
But now they were seasoned performers who had been in the industry for years; they were no longer moved by such motivational talk!
Since they arrived a bit late, by the time their morning practice ended, it was already one in the afternoon without them realizing it.
When Kang Seulgi’s big, glistening eyes looked over, Bae Juhyun immediately guessed what she was thinking.
"What do you want to eat?"
"Hehe, how about Japanese food?"
Just as Kang Seulgi finished speaking, Son Seungwan walked in and instinctively responded: "Japanese food sounds great!"
She had been busy with her solo activities that morning and had just returned from a photoshoot. Upon entering, she heard the exciting news.
As the leader, Bae Juhyun undoubtedly needed to be concerned about the members’ work conditions.
Son Seungwan nodded repeatedly, then affectionately took Bae Juhyun’s arm: "Juhyun unnie, are you treating us?"
"Hmm... did you hear any news today?" Bae Juhyun nodded and then curiously asked Son Seungwan.
"News?" Son Seungwan looked confused, "What news?"
"Uh, nothing, who did you go to the photoshoot with?"
"Han Yeong oppa. Taekyon oppa went with Yerin."
The Han Yeong she mentioned was one of their many managers. He frequently managed Son Seungwan’s individual schedules, so it was perfectly normal for him to lead the team this time.
"By the way, Juhyun unnie, a really fun game was released recently. Isn’t Liu Xin’an planning to set up a session?"
Son Seungwan wasn’t very familiar with single-player games, but she had been putting in a lot of effort in that area recently.
After all, she was going to China soon to record a program, and there was bound to be some "game" content involved.
Due to Seong Taekyon’s strict requirements, Son Seungwan had no choice but to take some time to learn about these things she didn’t initially understand.
It was fine before she understood, but once she did, Son Seungwan quickly became fascinated by the bizarre world of video games.
Currently, the hottest topic in the gaming world was "It Takes Two," and she saw its popularity everywhere.
Such a game naturally made Son Seungwan think of Liu Xin’an.
"What game?" Bae Juhyun looked curious. When Son Seungwan showed her the familiar game screen of "It Takes Two," Bae Juhyun exclaimed, "Oh, that one. I played it with Xin’an yesterday."
"Oh! So soon? Is there a video?"
Bae Juhyun grabbed her phone nearby, sat cross-legged on the floor.
Since it was break time, she thought she might as well check out how the broadcast went yesterday.
Finding the recorded broadcast was easy. Liu Xin’an’s fans were reliable and always afraid of inconveniencing her, so they eagerly shared anything interesting related to Liu Xin’an.
