The two people smiled at each other, their eyes filled with a tenderness only they could see. Even though the people around them couldn’t understand the true meaning behind their smiles, the sight of such a high-visual couple standing together was truly pleasing to the eye.
"Oh~ this is really pleasing to the eye."
Im Yoon’ah, who had just finished her interview, didn’t leave but sat to the side, admiring the two people’s appearance.
"Yoon’ah-unnie, I bet you and he looked just as good together earlier."
When praised for her looks in front of others, Bae Juhyun would typically just feel a bit embarrassed and humbly wave her hand.
But in front of Im Yoon’ah...
This was a member of Girls’ Generation who had been praised for her looks since 2007.
Juhyun definitely didn’t dare to be too proud of her appearance in front of Yoon’ah.
"I don’t think so, everyone says that when Liu Xin’an and I stand together, there’s always a weird feeling."
"Hmm... look." Yoon’ah frowned, realizing it was hard to explain, she walked up to Liu Xin’an and stood beside him.
Standing about one meter seventy tall, Yoon’ah was stunning with her bright eyes and beautiful teeth, really pleasing to the eye.
Beside her, Liu Xin’an stood up to match her, and their height difference made them look very compatible. Just one look made Bae Juhyun feel a breath stuck in her throat, unable to swallow or spit it out.
However, even though their heights were harmonious, their undeniably striking appearances together indeed gave an inexplicable sense of awkwardness.
Noticing that Juhyun’s expression wasn’t too bright, Liu Xin’an decided not to continue matching Yoon’ah, but sat down again, laughing as he stretched out his hand towards the distance.
"Alright, let’s continue with the interview. First of all, I’d like to ask, how do you feel about the new song for this comeback?"
The familiar questions started. These didn’t need Seong Taekyon to prepare Juhyun in advance, she already had very clear answers.
"Since this is a comeback after two years, including myself, all the members of Red Velvet are very attentive to this return and have put all their energy into preparing the new song."
"The song is a cheerful summer-style tune, and I believe it will bring the fans a very refreshing and joyous experience in this hot summer. We hope everyone can support Red Velvet a lot."
Juhyun wore a bright smile and spoke these words without a hitch, every word pronounced accurately, coupled with very cute body language.
The professional aura she exuded made Liu Xin’an watch in a bit of a daze.
Previously, the videos Juhyun shot with him were promotional clips she led, most of which were about topics Juhyun wasn’t entirely familiar with, like learning Chinese or gaming.
These were not within her professional domain at all.
But this time was different.
Having gone through countless interviews, Juhyun responded to Liu Xin’an’s questions with professional poise.
This was his first time seeing the serious work mode of Juhyun since knowing her.
It felt very novel to him.
"Wow, you speak very fluently. Did your manager prepare this in advance?"
"No, no. I just intended to join the fun... I didn’t expect to be roped in by Mr. Liu Xin’an."
Juhyun gently brushed her long hair that had fallen in front of her to the back with both hands, her lips curling up as she answered Liu Xin’an’s question with a smile.
"Well, that’s quite a coincidence. Aren’t the other members here with you?"
"...You might not believe it, but we came here together. But when Yoon’ah-unnie spotted us, the members sneaked away, leaving me to be found alone."
"That’s really interesting... and so unfair."
"You just said ’interesting’, didn’t you?"
"No, I didn’t." Liu Xin’an blatantly lied, and his obvious lie made Juhyun sigh helplessly.
Fans loved watching Juhyun sighing helplessly when teased, and Liu Xin’an knew this, so he purposely teased her.
"Hmm, you went to reshoot some photo spreads today, right? When can we admire the full new album photos of Red Velvet?"
"When will this video be released?"
Juhyun didn’t answer directly but looked to the side at Taekyon, softly asking her manager.
"The day after tomorrow."
"Hmm... then fans may need to wait patiently for a few more days. Please understand~"
Juhyun cutely made a heart gesture towards the camera.
Quickly, Juhyun, who was pulled in for an impromptu interview, regained her freedom.
After bowing and thanking the crew members, Juhyun followed Taekyon and Liu Xin’an outside.
Confirming no strangers were around, Juhyun pursed her lips and squeezed out a dissatisfied sound from between her teeth.
"Why pull me into an interview all of a sudden?"
Liu Xin’an was taken aback by this, he looked at Juhyun and noticed she just stared at him nonchalantly, causing him to chuckle.
"Since you came here, we couldn’t let you come for nothing."
"I was just here to join in the fun... those girls, they’re so dead!"
There it was, the Juhyun who only talked big.
"Do you want to head back to the practice room first or go to the cafeteria for lunch with me?"
With the morning interview wrapped up, Liu Xin’an planned to head to the cafeteria first to fill his stomach, then prepare for Red Velvet’s group interview in the afternoon.
