Celebrity Neighbor: My girlfriend is a big star? Chapter 980 - 452: The News Old Dai Brought Back

"So... by when do I need to have the proposal ready at the latest?"

"Before your coback. I don’t think you’ll have ti to prepare those things once you’re back. Since you’re not completely busy yet, make an effort yourself."

"Okay! I understand, Director!"

Bae Juhyun adorably saluted Director Kim and then happily turned around to leave.

However, before leaving, another possibility suddenly crossed her mind.

Her movents froze. Then, she hesitated for a mont, turned back, and quietly asked.

"Director, did... Xin’an call you?"

"Xin’an? Liu Xin’an? Why would he call ?"

It’s undeniable that the president was willing to give Bae Juhyun the chance to prepare the project herself, largely because of Liu Xin’an.

But, regarding Liu Xin’an calling, that indeed did not happen.

"Sigh, it’s nothing, just overthinking, Director."

"Alright, if there’s nothing else, hurry back and continue preparing. As for the proposal... make it interesting yourself, and show off your charm. These two points are crucial."

"Okay~ I will think carefully about it."

"Good."

After bowing politely to Director Kim several tis, she walked out of the office, unable to suppress her excitent any longer.

Excited like a kid, she silently cheered for herself.

But soon she felt that her actions were embarrassingly silly, so, with flushed cheeks, she pretended nothing happened and quickly left the front of Director Kim’s office.

...

"It’s Valentine’s Day today. Isn’t it okay for you to co to instead of being with your girlfriend?"

If the person sitting opposite Liu Xin’an and saying this was a woman, it might have turned into a dramatic love triangle story.

Unfortunately, the person sitting in front of Liu Xin’an was a man.

Dai Zhiyuan took a sip of coffee and teasingly asked Liu Xin’an.

Liu Xin’an shrugged. Honestly, he was very hesitant about eting Bae Juhyun today, since he promised not to put pressure on her. In the ten days since the New Year, apart from the day he returned to the country when Bae Juhyun and Kang Seulgi argued, he only t Bae Juhyun once.

The rest of the ti, they’ve mostly kept in touch via phone, video calls, and voice chats.

Saying he doesn’t miss her would be a lie, but... the image of her being overly stressed still lingers in Liu Xin’an’s mory. He didn’t think Bae Juhyun had the energy or ti to prepare any Valentine’s Day gift for him, though he had prepared sothing himself. But whether to give it...

"They’re about to make a coback. Let’s talk about it after all this is over. For a couple like us, every day together is Valentine’s Day."

This large dose of affection made Dai Zhiyuan put on a mask of pain. He regretted it now, wondering if he could send Liu Xin’an away?

"Speaking of serious matters, there’s work to discuss today." He quickened his tone, cleared his throat, and seriously addressed Liu Xin’an.

Upon hearing this, the previously cheerful Liu Xin’an also subdued his playful smile.

"The day after tomorrow afternoon, the dia here will have an interview with us, marking the 30th anniversary of establishing diplomatic ties. Your na is included."

"Hmm..."

"Then the afternoon after that, there’s a eting you need to attend as an observer. You don’t need to do anything; just co along."

"?"

"Yes, and also, SBS wants to interview you and Irene. I’m not sure if S-M received the news, but since you don’t have a managent company, the invitation was sent directly to our embassy."

Dai Zhiyuan explained the recent situation to Liu Xin’an. As the Lunar New Year ended, life started to get back on track gradually, following the usual routines.

The work that had been scheduled long ago was beginning to proceed in its proper process.

Dai Zhiyuan... or rather, the authorities at the embassy, provided significant support to Liu Xin’an. Being a fellow countryman, Liu Xin’an naturally had to cooperate for so decent publicity.

"And there is also the TV station interview?"

"Yes, but this ti it’s not for an entertainnt section. You and Irene should be appearing in more formal settings."

Liu Xin’an nodded.

"That’s the overall plan for this month. There are so smaller activities I won’t bother you with. As for March... I’ll let you know then. Ah! Also, I’ll introduce you to a friend later."

"A friend?"

"Yes, a very impressive friend, much more so than I am."

Dai Zhiyuan winked, then picked up his coffee for another sip.

He had delivered his notifications, and after a little more work... no, it should be completing the work handover with Liu Xin’an, he still had other things to attend to.

"How impressive?"

"You’ll find out soon... Oh, there’s one more thing."

"What is it?"

"How about getting so signed photos of Irene and the others?" Dai Zhiyuan made his request.

Liu Xin’an paused and then playfully asked, "Why do you want those? Are you a fan too?"

"No, there’s a group we have, uh... I don’t know if you can accept it, but it’s a fanfiction group about the artists here. Have you heard of it?"

"Not quite..."

"Anyway, plenty of the authors are fans of these artists. If you could help get so signed photos, it’d be handy for to give away later."

Liu Xin’an nodded in understanding, and then curiosity arose within him.

"Is there anyone writing about her?"

"You an your girlfriend?"

"Yeah."

"There used to be, but ever since Irene confird her relationship with you and went public, many authors writing about her stopped. You... have almost beco a persona non grata in that small circle."
