Celebrity Neighbor: My girlfriend is a big star?

"We have to treat Seulgi to a meal." Bae Juhyun hurriedly justified herself and Liu Xin'an, and Liu Xin'an nodded in agreement.

Undeniably, for Bae Juhyun and Liu Xin'an to be where they are now, the contributions of Kang Seulgi were indispensable.

However, regarding the specific details, Liu Xin'an might not know much more than this group of gossip-hungry MCs in the audience.

He was the one kept in the dark...

"So how did you and Seulgi test Xin'an, did you just ask outright?"

"No, because Xin'an didn't have many friends here, I introduced Seulgi to him under the guise of making new friends."

"...So that time was actually to test me?" Liu Xin'an asked incredulously, pointing at himself and speaking offhandedly to the woman beside him.

The answer came in the form of Bae Juhyun's embarrassed smile.

"Wow, you only found out now, Xin'an?"

"Could be considered an unexpected gain?"

"Uh... a bit surprising, I mean, no wonder Seulgi gossiped about so many things about me back then."

"What kind of gossip? Can you tell us?"

"There's no reason not to tell, she gossiped about my love life at the time, and then hinted, asking if I'd refuse if I had a chance to date a celebrity... Ah! So that's what it was!"

After being with Bae Juhyun, Liu Xin'an didn't care much about the past.

But now, being forced to recall the little bits and pieces before he and Bae Juhyun were together, he inevitably realized that his girlfriend had been planning things "against him" all along!

His sudden realization made everyone understand, while the mastermind behind all this, Bae Juhyun, feigned an innocent look.

However, even with an innocent expression, she made Kim Heechul and the others break out in a cold sweat.

"Xin'an, you were manipulated by Irene!"

"What manipulation?" Bae Juhyun hastily defended herself, as Kim Heechul's words made her sound like some deeply scheming villain!

Ah... of course, she actually had no right to say that because she did indeed secretly do many things for Liu Xin'an.

"So when Seulgi asked you about dating a celebrity back then, what did you say?"

Compared to Bae Juhyun's "calculating nature," everyone was more curious about Liu Xin'an's response at that time.

Faced with this question, Liu Xin'an felt a little embarrassed, but he didn't hide anything and answered candidly: "I said, why would I refuse such a great opportunity."

"Oh~ how cool."

"Hearing this, Irene, you must have been reassured, right?"

"Yes... very much, it was quite a relief."

"So had Xin'an dated anyone before?"

Min Kyunghoon's question made the atmosphere slightly tense, but as experienced entertainers, they wouldn't let the scene go cold.

"How can you ask Xin'an such a question in front of Irene!" Kang Hodong was the first to reprimand, mainly because Min Kyunghoon's question could easily lead to fan backlash after the broadcast.

But Min Kyunghoon wasn't a newbie; he had a reason for asking.

Likewise, having cooperated so many times, everyone understood the purpose behind his question, and naturally, Lee Soogeun explained for Min Kyunghoon: "If he answers, the fans must know Xin'an is a very devoted man!"

Then he joked at himself: "After saying that, if Xin'an suddenly claims to be experienced in love, wouldn't I become the clown?"

"Hahahaha."

Liu Xin'an also smiled cooperatively, and after everyone had their laugh, he slowly proceeded to answer.

"During school, I had a crush, but it was a fleeting relationship."

"Oh? Did Irene know about this?"

Bae Juhyun propped both of her arms on the podium, still smiling, but everyone could sense her jealousy.

"Jealous, jealous!"

"Quick, hand over the squeaky hammer! Even if it's true, you should deny it!"

This topic usually causes disputes, but with the MCs' cooperation, they made it interesting.

Bae Juhyun obediently took out a squeaky hammer from the podium and playfully hit Liu Xin'an with it.

"Was Irene your first love after that?"

"Yes, since then, I've been focused on studying and working, until I came here and met Juhyun."

"...That can't be right, with looks like yours, you shouldn't have lacked admirers in school, right?"

"Uh... there were, but I declined under the guise of studying seriously, then stayed home for a while learning video editing, officially started live streaming, and didn't have the opportunity to meet new people during that period..."

"If you were streaming, there must've been viewers who liked you."

"No, no, it was only last year that I started showing my face, before that I was a faceless technical game streamer!"

"Never showed your face?"

"Yeah... showing my face was an accident, we have facial capture software during streams, which captures my facial expressions and generates a 3D cat image in the lower right corner of the screen where my expressions are displayed."
