Celebrity Neighbor: My girlfriend is a big star? Chapter 399 - 258. He tried to restrain himself, but he fail

Bae Juhyun scooped the tomato and egg into a bowl with a spoon, allowing the sauce to mix thoroughly with the rice before stirring and eating.

The sweet and sour taste had her continually singing its praises. Her Chinese cuisine nu had gained a new dish, and this one seed very clean and hygienic. Eating more of it was not a problem.

After briefly satisfying her taste buds, Bae Juhyun looked up at the man across from her, "How was work today, tired or not?"

Besides appreciating the food, she also had to show so concern for her boyfriend.

"Tired, not really, but it felt... a bit novel."

"Novel? In what way specifically?" Bae Juhyun curiously gazed at Liu Xin’an, trying to read sothing from his facial expression.

"How should I put it..." Liu Xin’an organized his thoughts and then carefully asked the person in front of him, "Have you ever been scolded by a magazine director?"

"Of course, I’ve been scolded. When we first debuted, we all got scolded to tears once." Bae Juhyun’s face showed nostalgia, typical for an artist with a trainee background.

Not to ntion scolding, physical punishnt was common as well.

Those idols who successfully debuted from S-M, each one climbed up stepping over the "corpses" of their peers.

In this highly competitive environnt, if you wanted to stand out, enduring hardships was the first requirent.

Hearing Bae Juhyun’s reply, Liu Xin’an subconsciously gripped his chopsticks tighter, pursed his lips, and after regaining his composure, continued with a downcast head, "Do you still encounter that kind of situation now?"

"What’s up with you, suddenly asking about this? Did you see sothing?" Bae Juhyun frowned, people don’t suddenly beco interested in these matters without a reason.

As for Liu Xin’an’s question...

She was still in a reflective resting period, people just refrained from scolding her to her face, but criticisms about her online were rampant.

"Today, while shooting the magazine, I saw Nayeon getting scolded by the director for not finding the right shooting state, so I wondered if you had ever encountered that."

"Ah..." Bae Juhyun understood then. Because Seungwan was going to China for a show, she had started learning a bit more about the artists there lately. She heard they all lived quite well; perhaps Liu Xin’an hadn’t shifted his perspective yet.

Ever since he knew she was an artist, he had always had this mindset.

But this ti it actually turned out well; using this opportunity to let Liu Xin’an see how ordinary artists here can be was a good thing.

"It’s very normal. If Nayeon delays the shooting due to not being in the right state, it’s not just her ti but the entire crew’s ti she could be impacting. Normally, a cara crew wouldn’t operate just for one artist. If Nayeon takes too long, many other people’s schedules will be affected too... In such cases, getting scolded might even help the shoot. You didn’t see Nayeon looking too unhappy, did you?"

Liu Xin’an nodded, not objecting to Bae Juhyun’s explanation.

Indeed, after being scolded, Nayeon seed to have an epiphany, quickly overcoming the aspects the director was unsatisfied with.

For a mont, he even wondered if Nayeon had so peculiar fetish.

After all, he ca from the small broken station; such clichés... might be stale, but are always subconsciously recalled.

All because of the relentlessly scrolling danmaku.

Those water friends’ danmaku entirely to bla.

"Relax, if you’re going to follow Nayeon on her engagents, you’ll likely encounter similar situations often... Ah! I’m not saying Nayeon will be scolded, you will probably see other artists."

"... Do artists in your country all live under such intense conditions?"

"It’s pretty normal; it’s just a very ordinary profession. The hosts we see on those variety shows, their salaries are actually comparable to high-paid white-collar workers each month," Bae Juhyun began patiently explaining so inner workings of the circle to Liu Xin’an.

"Aren’t you earning a lot?"

"Yeah, well, I am considered a top-tier superstar in the idol scene now..." Bae Juhyun’s face turned red as she spoke, as self-praise still made her feel embarrassed; she was not thick-skinned.

"Earning more is only normal...plus, I’m currently in a resting phase, only earning again after my coback in August, presently I’m in a phase of blowing through savings."

Miss Bae rested her chin on her hand, languidly stirring her rice and tomato scrambled eggs with a spoon, scooped up a spoonful, and flashed a smile at the man in front of her.

"Want to support , darling?"

What could Liu Xin’an respond?

"Support! Feed! Buy! I’ll give you my card."

His imdiate declaration made Bae Juhyun burst into bloom with laughter. The already radiant woman bead dazzlingly, making even the bright moon outside the restaurant window pale in comparison.

"Just kidding, I’m pretty rich. It should be supporting you," Madam Rich waved her hand grandly, planning to let Liu Xin’an truly accompany a rich lady for once.

Beautiful, good figure, and wealthy—what rich lady wouldn’t be loved?

Hearing this, Liu Xin’an showed a suggestive smile.

The upward curve of his lips made Bae Juhyun, who couldn’t stop staring at the man, blush slightly. She likely thought of sothing too, humd softly, and quickly changed the subject.

"Do you have to follow Nayeon for schedules tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow’s schedule is in the afternoon, I’ll either do a live stream at ho in the morning or go to the gym. Ah! I’ve got a gym mbership, want to try it out?"
