"Let’s ask in a bit, who knows, maybe there’ll really be a chance next year."
Even Liu Xin’an couldn’t help but admire how he started dating Bae Juhyun just at the perfect time.
It happened right at such an excellent timing window that next year would offer Bae Juhyun lots of opportunities to enjoy the benefits of their relationship.
"In a bit? Do you guys have any plans for tonight?"
Kim Yerin, snuggled in her blanket, looked eagerly at Bae Juhyun on the screen, curiously asking.
She was feeling weak and cold all over, and if she could, she really wanted to steam comfortably at a sauna...
"We’re planning to take everyone to a sauna tonight."
"Boohoo, I really want to go to the sauna too."
Feeling under the weather, Kim Yerin was much more fragile now compared to her usual "little demon" self.
Hearing the words sauna and steaming, poor Kim Yerin was almost in tears.
"Once I get back, I’ll take you to a sauna."
Nobody in Red Velvet dotes on Kim Yerin more than Bae Juhyun. Seeing her team’s youngest, whom she treated like a daughter, looking so pitiful, "Mama Bae" feels terribly sorry.
"Alright~ I’m going to sleep now, have fun you guys."
"Yeah, go to sleep fast."
Bae Juhyun didn’t continue to disturb her little sister. She softly said her goodbyes and ended the call, with a worried look still on her face.
Her fair little hands holding the phone couldn’t stop rubbing together.
But as a large hand gently pressed on her small hand, Bae Juhyun instinctively turned to look at Liu Xin’an beside her.
The man was looking at the computer screen, but the warmth transmitted from his large hand made her feel at ease.
Bae Juhyun grasped the large hand, nuzzling her cheek against it, then rested peacefully on it, allowing Liu Xin’an to gently caress her cheek.
"Yerin rarely gets sick, but when she does, it’s always severe. Now that I’m not by her side, I’m always worried no one will take care of her."
"What about Seungwan and Sooyoung?"
"Seungwan has her schedule every day, Sooyoung is filming a drama, and now Seulgi is coming over... but Taekyon oppa will send an assistant over, so we can be at ease with this."
"Then why can’t you still relax?"
Bae Juhyun sighed, not answering directly, but softly asked, "If it were Chenglu suddenly falling sick, would you be very worried?"
Liu Xin’an and Li Chenglu are family, brother and sister.
Bae Juhyun didn’t think her feelings for the members were lesser than Liu Xin’an’s for Li Chenglu.
"Hmm... I can probably understand, but I need to correct one thing, Li Chenglu’s physical fitness is even more outrageous than mine, you’ve seen my godfather’s physique, right?"
Bae Juhyun, led by Liu Xin’an’s words, had to recall and then burst out laughing.
Indeed, Liu Xin’an’s godfather, who is also Li Chenglu’s biological father, has an exaggerated physique that makes it hard to associate him with "getting a cold."
"Pah pah pah, Chenglu would never get sick." With her mood lifted a bit, Bae Juhyun lightly patted her mouth, then "pah pah" twice, she never thought of Li Chenglu getting sick, just using it as a hypothetical.
"Hmm... but in my memory, Li Chenglu has rarely ever gotten sick, you know why I work out."
"Chenglu mentioned, you were very weak as a child, like..." Bae Juhyun pinched Liu Xin’an’s large hand, pondered for a few seconds then smiled, "like a little chick."
"Ah! That’s a swear word, you actually swore!"
Understanding the Chinese, Bae Juhyun excitedly patted Liu Xin’an on the shoulder, the "pat-pat-pat" sound making Liu Xin’an’s mouth twitch.
"If you’re really worried, how about going back for a bit after the event tomorrow to check on Yerin?"
"Hmm, we’ll see, I’ll call Seulgi first and ask about the situation."
Bae Juhyun mumbled, unlocking her phone again, found Kang Seulgi’s number, and dialed it.
Once the call connected, before Bae Juhyun could speak, Kang Seulgi’s voice came through first.
And the words made both Bae Juhyun on the speaker end and Liu Xin’an, who was eavesdropping, dumbfounded.
"Ah! Is Juhyun unnie here to pick me up, calling just as I got off the plane!"
Hearing this, Bae Juhyun and Liu Xin’an glanced at each other, then after a few seconds of silence, they both said "huh?" in sync.
That "huh" also bewildered Kang Seulgi on the other end of the line.
"Turns out you’re not here to pick me up, got my hopes up for nothing."
Having hugged Kang Seulgi affectionately, Bae Juhyun heard Kang Seulgi’s aggrieved voice.
Bae Juhyun looked embarrassed, teasingly telling Kang Seulgi, who had arrived at the hotel, "I thought you were coming tomorrow."
"Coming tomorrow would be too rushed, and since there’s nothing planned for tonight, and Juhyun unnie you are already here, I decided to come over tonight."
Jeju Island is very small... Actually, the whole of Korea isn’t that big.
It’s because Jeju Island is small that it’s totally feasible to drive over to the event site last minute tomorrow.
Thinking of this, Kang Seulgi easily decided to book the same hotel as Bae Juhyun. Newest update provided by NovelHub(.)net
After all, Bae Juhyun was hosting Liu Xin’an’s family for a trip together, and such a trip would definitely involve grand feasts.
Kang Seulgi’s little scheme had long been planned!
Of course, Kang Seulgi came here for work, so traveling with her were an assistant and a stylist responsible for her makeup and styling.
"Staying here tonight?"
