Celebrity Neighbor: My girlfriend is a big star? Chapter 71. Shameful!

In so households, Liu Xin’an wasn’t sure, but in his own house, the person who cooks is usually not the one to wash the dishes.

And today, since Bae Juhyun had worked hard to prepare lunch, naturally, it was up to Liu Xin’an to take care of cleaning up the dishes.

After thoroughly washing and drying the dishes, Liu Xin’an wiped his hands and walked out of the kitchen, sitting next to Bae Juhyun, who was still sitting at the dining table, head down, playing on her phone.

"I have to start my livestream later. Are you okay on your own?"

"I’m fine. I’ll just hang out for a bit and then head ho for a nap. I’ve been really tired lately~"

Bae Juhyun turned off her phone and, after putting it away, lazily stretched her arms and yawned.

"Do you need a massage?"

Liu Xin’an swore there was no ulterior motive when he said this. He just genuinely thought his girlfriend was too tired and wanted to help her relieve so physical stress.

But Bae Juhyun seed to think of sothing else. She looked at Liu Xin’an warily and instinctively took a step back.

"What are you trying to do?"

"...Just giving you a massage. Wow, I can’t believe you’re suspecting like this."

Liu Xin’an felt genuinely wronged. He hadn’t asked for anything in so many days, and now he just wanted to help his girlfriend relax, and she was doubting him.

It wasn’t entirely Bae Juhyun’s fault, though. Yesterday, his sudden kiss really startled her.

After all, it was extrely out of character for Liu Xin’an to do sothing like that, so it was natural for her to feel uncomfortable.

"It’s because yesterday... you insisted on that."

Liu Xin’an was puzzled. He didn’t quite understand what Bae Juhyun ant.

"Which one?"

Bae Juhyun pursed her lips and lightly pointed to her left cheek.

It would have been fine if she hadn’t said anything, but now Liu Xin’an felt even more wronged.

"Wasn’t that because you attacked so quickly last ti, I didn’t even have a chance to react before it was over."

"Wh-What attack! You actually call that an attack!?"

"Uh, it’s just a way to describe it, you know. It happened so fast, I didn’t even have ti to savor it."

Bae Juhyun’s expression grew even stranger.

"You actually wanted to savor it?"

Liu Xin’an fell silent. He couldn’t match Bae Juhyun’s eloquence. If this girl mastered Chinese, he definitely wouldn’t lose an argunt in Chinese.

Feeling frustrated, Liu Xin’an let out a long sigh, stepped forward, pinched his girlfriend’s cheek, and quickly ran into his workspace.

Regaining her composure, Bae Juhyun couldn’t tolerate this injustice. She hurried after him, slapping the door forcefully and shouting, "Explain yourself, Liu Xin’an! I didn’t think you were such a bad guy!"

But the next mont, the door abruptly opened, and the man standing in front of her made her freeze mid-action.

Oops, she had gone too far with the provocation.

Rembering the previous two tis Liu Xin’an had teased her, Bae Juhyun began to curse her own overconfidence.

But the previous two tis of being teased had made her lose face, so this ti Bae Juhyun mustered up the courage to pretend she wasn’t scared.

After all, she was two years older than Liu Xin’an. She was the older sister!

"Hmph! Got nothing to say? Your true nature is revealed!"

She continued to provoke with bravado, but inside, she was nervous.

The first over-the-top provocation had led to Liu Xin’an pinning her against the wall.

The second over-the-top provocation had led to her being pulled into his arms.

And now, the third ti...

Bae Juhyun thought she could regain so control in their relationship by being tough.

But the reality was, faced with their size difference, her small arms and legs could barely compare. Calling her Liu Xin’an’s large doll would be laughable.

All that talk about being five and a half feet tall with an aura of over nine feet... total nonsense!

Under Bae Juhyun’s astonished gaze, Liu Xin’an pulled her arm, and with a little force, their positions switched dramatically.

From facing the wall to leaning against it, Bae Juhyun couldn’t help but recall the last ti this guy scared her.

She thought he was about to force a kiss on her then, but Liu Xin’an had rely brushed the stray hair from her forehead.

She had been anticipating... no, dreading it for nothing.

But this ti, Bae Juhyun didn’t think Liu Xin’an had the courage to do anything.

Since they started dating, whether it was hugging, holding hands, or even the kiss she stole yesterday, it was always her making the first move.

Who would believe that!

She was Irene of Red Velvet! The goddess of the fourth generation, Irene!

Though she humbly never accepted this title, being spoken of highly by so many people had to an sothing.

Despite this, she played the active role in their relationship.

Isn’t that strange?

Now, was Liu Xin’an, whom she had labeled a "coward," trying to act tough again?

She wasn’t buying it this ti.

No, to be precise, she wasn’t falling for it!

Having figured this out, Bae Juhyun continued to stare defiantly into Liu Xin’an’s eyes.

Seeing her own reflection in his clear eyes made her heart race, but... she couldn’t back down! She couldn’t let this jerk laugh at her!

"What now? Trying to fake it again?"

Like cheering for herself, she taunted him.

Liu Xin’an just laughed. He didn’t answer but slowly leaned in closer.

The distance between them shrank, and the pressure from his tall stature made Bae Juhyun instinctively want to close her eyes. But if she did, and this jerk just brushed her hair back again, she’d be humiliated.

So, suppressing her nervousness, Bae Juhyun continued to stare defiantly.

Closer and closer, in the quiet living room, she could hear her heart pounding louder and faster.

No, no, no.

This distance was wrong.

If he were just brushing her hair or pinching her cheek, the distance earlier would’ve sufficed.

But why was Liu Xin’an still leaning in?

Bae Juhyun instinctively held her breath. Finally, unable to resist the nervousness and panic spreading through her body, she closed her eyes.

Imdiately, a soft sensation on her cheek made her entire body stiffen.

It was her left cheek.

The sa left cheek where she owed Liu Xin’an his reward.

But compared to the quick peck yesterday, Liu Xin’an was much bolder this ti.

It wasn’t clear how long it lasted, ten seconds, maybe a minute.

Only when she heard the door to Liu Xin’an’s livestream room close did Bae Juhyun finally open her eyes, which were already misty.

But before she could calm her rapid heartbeat, Liu Xin’an’s playful voice left her stunned.

"Dared to open your eyes, huh?"

"Ah!!"

"Bae Scaredy-cat" deserved the nickna.

Other traits could be characters, fabrications, but her natural jumpiness was genuine.

With her face completely flushed pink, Bae Juhyun let out a yelp, pushed Liu Xin’an away, and ran to the sofa to grab her phone, then quickly dashed out of his house.

In her haste, she even forgot to close the door behind her.

Watching her run off in a panic, Liu Xin’an bent over, laughing.

If she’s so easily scared, she shouldn’t try to be seductive. Look at Bae Juhyun now.

What an embarrassnt.
