After skipping over this topic, Liu Xin’an continued to focus on the live stream.
One and a half hours later, another message from Bae Juhyun made him feel a bit awkward.
The intimidation of a question mark is truly terrifying.
During this time, Bae Juhyun had become quite familiar with Chinese internet slang, and this "?" was probably something she picked up from her followers or Li Chenglu.
She sure picks up the bad habits quickly.
"Ahem, okay, let’s tackle the rest of this level tomorrow. My sixth sense is telling me that if I keep streaming, I might encounter a life-threatening situation soon!"
[Life-threatening? You mean a disaster within the next hundred years, right?]
Liu Xin’an waved at the camera. Thankfully, this game allowed for saving at any point and wasn’t like strategy games such as "XCOM 2" or "Fire Emblem" that required high precision saves. Otherwise, Liu Xin’an wouldn’t have been able to end the stream so promptly.
After shutting down the stream and ensuring the microphone and camera were off, Liu Xin’an spun in his chair and casually dialed his girlfriend’s phone number.
The call quickly connected, but the voice on the other end from Bae Juhyun was very soft.
"Uh... are you on your way back to the dorm after finishing your schedule, and because Seulgi and the others are sleeping, you have to keep your voice down, right?"
This specific description made Bae Juhyun wonder if Liu Xin’an had planted a camera on her.
"Then let’s hang up for now. We can talk when you get back to the dorm. I just finished my stream here. We’ll chat later."
The call was over with just a few words, leaving Liu Xin’an feeling quite pleased with the unspoken understanding between him and Bae Juhyun. The source of this content ɪs NoveIＦire.net
If summer happiness in China comes from beer and barbecue, then over here, the best pairing is beer and fried chicken.
As soon as Liu Xin’an walked out of the streaming room, he saw Li Chenglu sitting on the sofa, legs crossed, wearing disposable gloves, and eating fried chicken. The next second, he felt his stomach rumble.
"You didn’t even tell me you ordered fried chicken?"
"You said an hour, so I figured you’d be out soon. That’s why I didn’t tell you."
Li Chenglu’s unclear response, chicken wing in her mouth, was to Liu Xin’an’s dissatisfaction. She wasn’t lying; it was her first piece.
"What happened, got ganked by Irene?"
Li Chenglu propped her elbow on her leg, smirking at Liu Xin’an, who had picked up a chicken wing to eat, and teased him.
Knowing Liu Xin’an, he usually wouldn’t stop streaming before midnight unless something significant happened.
Only one person in the world could make him end a stream so obediently.
Yes, even Park Jinsuk sometimes couldn’t convince Liu Xin’an, but he would comply with any request from Bae Juhyun.
She felt bad for her godmother!
"Pretty much. They finished their schedule and are on their way back to the dorm."
"That’s quite early."
"This is early? It’s already 10 PM."
Liu Xin’an widened his eyes. If this was considered early, then what was late?
"For popular celebrities, this time is indeed early. Many shows record until late at night... But Irene and others don’t have too many variety shows to attend, right?"
"Then that means it’s relatively relaxed this time. Why not have her come over? I’ll treat her to dinner!"
"No, they probably have to get up early tomorrow. Let her rest well."
"Then when she video calls you later and sees us with a spread of food... won’t she be furious?"
Just as Liu Xin’an was about to answer, his phone, placed on the table, started ringing.
He glanced at the caller ID and was about to pick it up.
A fair hand moved faster than his.
Li Chenglu raised an eyebrow at Liu Xin’an: "Wanna bet?"
"Get lost. Give me my phone."
"Tsk, so boring. Go on, I won’t save any for you."
"I can order my own." Liu Xin’an pouted. He wouldn’t bet. After all, his girlfriend had had a long day. If he taunted her with fried chicken, what kind of jerk would he be?
Taking his phone, he went back to his bedroom. Though Li Chenglu was staying at his place, she wasn’t sleeping in his bedroom but in the guest room he had prepared for his mom.
So his bedroom was still the same as always.
As soon as he initiated the video call, the expressionless face of Bae Juhyun appeared on the screen.
Soon after, her originally cold face melted into a warm, inviting smile.
"What’s that on the corner of your mouth?"
Liu Xin’an paused and looked at the small window showing himself in the top right corner of the screen.
As for what Bae Juhyun pointed out on the corner of his mouth...
Hmm, it was the fried chicken sauce.
"Are you eating fried chicken?"
Having grown up in a family that sold fried chicken, Bae Juhyun immediately recognized the sauce on Liu Xin’an’s mouth.
She pouted, her tone a mix of envy and pity, questioning Liu Xin’an.
This left Liu Xin’an feeling awkward.
"Uh... Li Chenglu ordered it."
"Great, I also want to eat fried chicken with you guys."
"Don’t you not like fried chicken?"
He already knew that Bae Juhyun, having had too much fried chicken as a child, wasn’t fond of it.
"It’s okay to have a little occasionally, especially if there’s a cold beer... Ah, just thinking about it makes me happy!"
