Chapter 276 I Didn’t Mean to Scare You

It was a fourteen-hour journey, so it was normal to be quite tiring.

But Jiang Zhaohuan was in full energy as soon as he got off the plane.

When facing fans who come to pick them up at the airport, they take off their masks and sunglasses to interact with them.

As soon as he got in the nanny car, he took out his mobile phone to search for relevant information.

If I remember correctly, Bae Joo-hyun is going to the Chinese island to hold a book signing event, so she should have an itinerary.

After Jiang Zhaohuan turned off the flight mode, he planned to search for relevant exit information.

What surprised him was – why was there no movement at all on Red Velvet’s major stations?

Could it be that their company kept the itinerary secret, resulting in none of the fans being able to see them off at the airport?

Or have these fans transformed into iron-blooded war wolves and boarded a flight to Taiwan?

Jiang Zhaohuan sighed softly, leaned back in his chair and looked out the window.

If that's the case, then we can't meet today.

Che Chunhao, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was flipping through the documents in his hands. Dohwan has been quite busy lately.

In addition to the summer shooting assignments sent by major advertisers, there are also jobs such as movie roadshows.

When he heard a sigh from the back seat, he thought it was regret for the early end of the journey.

Che Chunhao turned his head with a smile, looked at Zhao Huan and said earnestly:

"Do-hwan, having a job means you are popular, and earning more money means your life will be better, so you will feel relieved."

Jiang Zhaohuan really wanted to complain that even if he didn't work, he would still be supported by Lao Song.

But he couldn't say this, as his family background seemed to be well hidden at the moment.

"Yes, I understand. Not having a job is the worst."

"Hahaha, you're right to think so."

Che Chunhao suddenly thought of the nomination he had made some time ago, and couldn't help but say,

"Speaking of which, your film Train to Busan was nominated for two awards, so the Baeksang Best New Artist Award should be a sure win."

"Probably. Hopefully, Best Supporting Actor will be successful, too."

Jiang Zhaohuan is ambitious, and only if he climbs higher can he have more say.

He had heard about the xenophobia among actors in Chungmuro ​​before, and even Rain couldn't really squeeze into this path.

After all, Rain started out as an idol singer, not a traditional actor.

The Chungmuro ​​actors who are closed and stick together are mostly uncles.

It’s difficult for young people to squeeze in, and it’s even more difficult for good-looking young people.

Jiang Zhaohuan stretched comfortably. He didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

As long as I continue to work hard and improve my acting skills, it is only a matter of time before I break through this wall.

The black nanny car slowly drove towards the Holy Water Cave.

When the car stopped in front of the apartment building, Che Chunhao did not forget to perform his duties as an agent. He went through all the work arrangements for the past week and repeatedly reminded people not to play games all night.

It is impossible to pull an all-nighter.

Jiang Zhaohuan doesn't want to have any health problems someday, he still values ​​his life very much.

The work of an artist is tiring enough, there is no need to torture yourself further.

He dragged his suitcase into the elevator, and when he reached his floor, he walked to his door and entered the password skillfully.

Before I finished entering the eight-digit password, I heard noises behind the door.

This surprised Jiang Zhaohuan. Could it be that the staff of SM Entertainment were in their dormitory?
No, there are even worse possibilities.

It's not like he hasn't seen people who used some unknown means to sneak into artists' dormitories and steal things.

Jiang Zhaohuan picked up the suitcase in his hand as quickly as possible and took a few big steps into the fire escape next to him.

He leaned against the wall and subconsciously held his breath.

Whether it is the former or the latter, you cannot be discovered.

Otherwise, since the dormitories are so close, one of them will definitely need to move.

creak-

After the heavy security door was pushed open, Bae Joo-hyun, who was wearing gray casual clothes, looked at the closed door opposite with a confused look on her face.

Strange, why did the person disappear?
Just over ten minutes ago.

Bae Joo-hyun saw the photos of Kang Do-hwan being picked up at the airport posted by his fans, and she calculated in her mind that he should be returning home soon.

She simply stood at the entrance and looked through the peephole as soon as she heard the sound of the elevator.

So Bae Joo-hyun was very sure that she was not dazzled, and Do-hwan did indeed walk out of the elevator dragging a suitcase just now.

But why did the person disappear as soon as I opened my mouth?
Did he come in?

Impossible, how could she not hear the sound of the security door closing.

Just when Bae Joo-hyun was puzzled, Kang Cho-hwan, who was hiding in the fire escape, raised his hand and rubbed his eyes.

He almost thought he was seeing things. Why was she in the dormitory?

"Irene?"

The sudden sound scared Pei Zhuxuan so much that she grabbed the edge of the door.

She looked in horror towards the fire escape where the sound came from.

The tall figure walking out of the darkness was exactly the person he had been thinking about day and night.

Bae Joo-hyun realized that her movements were a little funny and quickly stood up straight.

"You...how did you get out from there?" Jiang Zhaohuan saw Bae Zhuxuan's actions, and in order to avoid laughing out loud, he hurriedly raised his hands to cover his mouth.

He suppressed his smile and explained carefully.

"I heard the voice and thought it was someone from your company."

Finally, I don’t forget to add one sentence.

"I didn't mean to scare you."

Bae Joo-hyun naturally knew that Do-hwan was not such a person with a bad taste.

She realized that her actions were a little funny, so she stood up straight and said:
"I reaped the consequences of my own actions."

"Ok?"

"What you said on the phone about us not being destined to be together was a lie. Our trip to China is the day after tomorrow."

So that's why. No wonder I couldn't find any photos taken abroad.

Jiang Zhaohuan dragged his suitcase back to his door, entered the password and asked:
"Then do you want to go in? The gift is still in the suitcase."

"Yes, excuse me."

There will always be some dust in a house that hasn't been cleaned for three days.

Kang Do-hwan decided to clean up the house after seeing Bae Joo-hyun off.

He put down his suitcase and prepared to take out the gift from it.

But soon the zippering action stopped, and he remembered that something was still inside.

"Um... turn around for a moment."

"Ok?"

Pei Zhuxuan didn't quite understand and asked in confusion,
"what happened?"

"My clothes are in there."

Jiang Zhaohuan said it very tactfully, but he believed that the other party could understand what he meant.

Bae Joo-hyun's brows twitched involuntarily, and that little accident emerged in her mind.

She turned quickly and her voice became quieter.

"Call me again when you're done."

"Inside."

Jiang Zhaohuan quickly spread out the suitcase, ignored the underwear and picked up the gift on the other side.

In fact, he put the gift for Bae Joo-hyun in his shoulder bag.

He opened the suitcase only to take out the portion that was given to Sun Chengwan and others.

"never mind."

Bae Joo-hyun slowly turned around and looked down.

After making sure that he didn't see anything strange, he smiled and spread out his hands.

"Give me the gift."

Kang Do Hwan put the gift bag from his shoulder bag into Bae Joo Hyun's hand and pointed to the big box of chocolates he took out from the suitcase.

He felt a little nervous, worried that his love was already obvious.

After all, he has his own selfish motives when choosing gifts.

Bae Joo-hyun's gift is different from that of other members.

Jiang Zhaohuan noticed that she wanted to open the gift in front of him, and his heart beat faster subconsciously.

It's not that I'm moved, I'm just nervous whether she will like it.

Bae Joo-hyun carefully opened the outer packaging of the gift and found that it was a shoulder bag in a tender bud color.

The fresh color combination is very suitable for matching with white clothes.

Moreover, the bag has a large capacity, which is the type she likes.

Jiang Zhaohuan raised his hand and touched the tip of the pen, then asked:
"…It should be okay, right? I wanted to buy the purple one, but they didn't have it."

"Yes, I like it very much."

Hearing this, Jiang Zhaohuan also breathed a sigh of relief.

He actually planned to buy a watch, but there was no point in buying a cheap one, and it would be a burden if it was too expensive.

So I finally chose the classic Swiss brand Freitag.

"As a return gift, how about I treat you to a movie?"

"Inside?"

After saying this, Bae Joo-hyun quickly ran to the entrance.

She even forgot to take the gifts for the members, and stood outside the door, poking her head out and whispered:
"See you tonight, I'll text you."

Before Jiang Zhaohuan could reply, the door was closed.

He stared at the closed door, his Adam's apple rolling.

Is this a date?

Jiang Zhaohuan's mind flashed with an image of someone lying on the door sill and sticking his head out.

He lowered his head and stroked the back of his neck, talking to himself.

"She seems to really know that she is... cute."
