Celebrity Neighbor: My girlfriend is a big star?

No one would have thought that Irene, a big star known for her god-like beauty and beloved by countless fans, would appear on this little-known pedestrian street in Tianjin's Binhai New Area at this moment.

Liu Xin'an was holding Bae Juhyun's slender legs with both hands, while Bae Juhyun happily rested her chin on Liu Xin'an's shoulder, occasionally letting out a series of "woo~" sounds, as if she were flying with Liu Xin'an's help.

The pedestrian street was lined with shops and buildings, and since it was nighttime, these shops were brightly lit, with bustling crowds coming and going.

"What's that selling?"

After glancing around, Bae Juhyun whispered in Liu Xin'an's ear.

In fact, quite a few people had their eyes linger on them, after all, Bae Juhyun was currently being carried by Liu Xin'an. This intimate scene made several people passing by the pedestrian street smile knowingly.

Happy people always share their joy with those around them, and in a city as optimistic as Tianjin, even strangers genuinely wish well for this affectionate young couple.

And the shop Bae Juhyun was inquiring about was actually a noodle shop.

"Beef noodles, do you want to eat some?"

"Ah... then forget it, I thought it was selling desserts."

"Things here are pretty expensive, I couldn't afford the noodles here when I was a student."

"You were short of money as a student?"

Given Liu Xin'an's family background, she would never believe he lacked money.

However, Liu Xin'an was not lying; when he was a student, he only had 80 RMB a week, and that included his lunch expenses.

In high school, he had a big appetite and was more physically active than now. Just getting enough to eat cost at least 10 RMB, and since his high school didn't have a cafeteria, having 15 RMB left by the end of the week meant he was economical.

And this shop's noodles cost at least 25-26 RMB a bowl, he truly couldn't afford it.

Of course, there was a reason for the high price; at least the beef in the noodles was genuine and substantial...

Li Chenglu had treated him before; unlike him being raised frugally, Li Chenglu was like a rich lady in high school, and sometimes, he had to rely on her financial help...

"Very short, my mom only gave me 80 RMB a week in high school, about 15,000 KRW."

"15,000???"

"Uh, our cost of living wasn't as high as yours; this amount was just about enough for my weekly lunches, but it was hard to buy snacks or anything extra."

"It's a wonder you grew so tall."

Bae Juhyun's envious tone made Liu Xin'an chuckle, and he adjusted her on his back slightly, continuing to stroll down this memory-filled pedestrian street with steady steps.

"This building used to have lots of arcade machines on the fifth floor, the kind you fed coins into."

"Ah, I know, there are usually lots in amusement parks too."

"Yes, back then, Li Chenglu had money, her sugar daddy gave her money every week secretly, afraid she wouldn't have enough, so she always had a few hundred to spare each week."

"...Was there that much of a difference?"

Liu Xin'an vividly described his school days, and Bae Juhyun listened intently.

It was as if she had truly traveled back into Liu Xin'an's past, witnessing his student life firsthand.

"Absolutely, Chenglu was very popular at school, so many classmates wanted to meet her once they found out we were like siblings."

"Did you protect her?"

"How could I? I sold her info for five RMB each to lots of them, then used that money to play games in the arcade every day."

Liu Xin'an couldn't help but laugh out loud, perhaps thinking how outrageous he was back then.

Bae Juhyun laughed with her eyes almost closed, lying on Liu Xin'an's back, even patting her boyfriend's chest, probably standing up for Li Chenglu at the time.

"Don't hit me, she did the same thing! She sold my QQ number to many girls, and every time I came home and logged on QQ, the sound of adding friends was endless, it was ridiculous."

"Oh~ Xin'an was quite popular in high school, huh."

Bae Juhyun nodded with a mockingly enlightened expression, her voice dripping with sarcasm.

Having interacted with Chinese fans so much, Bae Juhyun was almost mastering the unique Chinese sarcasm.

Sometimes when chatting, Liu Xin'an would even see her send the "^^" emoticon, making him question whether her account had been hacked with its abstract vibe.

"I was always studying hard in high school."

"You just said you often went to internet cafes to play games with classmates in high school!"

Well, Liu Xin'an had just shot himself in the foot.

The arms wrapped around his neck tightened a bit, and Liu Xin'an could clearly feel his breathing becoming slightly difficult.

He quickly put on a pleasing smile, his eyes darting to point at a nearby "CoCo": "Ah! Want some bubble tea? My treat!"

"Hmph."

Bae Juhyun certainly didn't plan to murder her future husband right there on the street. She let out a gentle snort, loosening her grip around Liu Xin'an's neck, and struggled a bit to jump off his back.

Liu Xin'an had carried her for almost more than 800 meters, and even though her boyfriend was in good shape, she didn't want to trouble Liu Xin'an any further.
