Chapter 364 I want to experience campus romance
Unlike Daegu and Seoul, there aren't that many vehicles on the roads.
Bae Joo-hyun drove the car slowly and leisurely. When the traffic light turned green, she had the leisure time to take out her mobile phone to take pictures of the sky and the scenery outside the window.
She loves nature and wants to record every moment with her boyfriend.
Come to think of it, it seems that there haven’t been any photos of the two of them together since they got together.
Jiang Zhaohuan noticed his girlfriend's sudden gaze, raised his eyebrows, and said teasingly with a smile:
"What? You can't remember the way and need my navigation?"
Bae Joo-hyun didn't expect that Do-hwan still thought he was a person with poor sense of direction.
Even if she really had any, she would never admit it.
"No, I was just wondering if we should take a few photos together as a souvenir."
Jiang Zhaohuan was stunned when he heard this. He indeed had not considered this aspect.
Perhaps it is because they think that after many artists reveal their relationship, their fans will take advantage of the situation to find signs of love.
So in order to keep it confidential, he first PASSED the photo.
But think about it carefully, if they don’t send out the photo, no one will see it, right?
Even if it is a small account, it cannot be sent.
Jiang Zhaohuan raised his phone with a smile and was about to take a photo of his girlfriend driving when he heard a disgusted voice beside him.
"If you take a picture of me that makes me look dark and ugly, I'll be really angry."
"Well, my current level of photography is still pretty good."
Pei Zhuxuan didn't say anything until the next red light appeared, then she narrowed her eyes to express her doubt:
"you sure?"
Jiang Zhaohuan glanced at the photo he had just taken.
The lighting inside the car was not good, and it was backlit just now.
In addition, I held my phone a little high, which resulted in the head of the person in the photo being a little bigger than it should be.
Ahem, he felt a little guilty and deleted the photo directly.
But what does the acquiescence in action have to do with Jiang Zhaohuan’s mouth?
He calmly put down his phone and said stubbornly:
"Sure, I just took a good picture."
"Then bring it to me."
"I'm a perfectionist. I think I can take better pictures, so I deleted the last one."
"..."
Bae Joo-hyun didn't expect that Do-hwan had such a side to him. Was he so stubborn before?
It's true that if you spend a long time with him, you will discover another side of him.
But it's still quite cute.
Very close to the destination, Bae Joo-hyun caught a glimpse of a small shop that was open for business.
When she saw her aunt frying rice cakes on the iron plate at the stall, her eyes couldn't help but light up.
Since I went to Seoul to be a trainee, I haven't had much chance to come here to eat stir-fried rice cakes.
Whenever she went back to Daegu in the past, besides the home-cooked meals made by her family, what she missed most was this fried rice cake.
Her aunt was very kind to her. When she bought small portions, she would often give herself a medium portion so that she could eat more.
Pei Zhuxuan still wanted to drive. She reached out and poked Zhaohuan's waist and said:
"Zhaohuan, please help me buy some food."
Jiang Zhaohuan was somewhat surprised. When did his girlfriend's appetite become so good?
I just had breakfast half an hour ago.
"Didn't you have enough breakfast?"
"I'm just a little envious of my aunt's cooking. I often ate at this restaurant when I was in school."
When Jiang Zhaohuan heard this, he had already guessed the destination of the date.
Apparently his girlfriend hadn't realized she'd let the cat out of the bag.
No wonder she would change into another set of clothes before going out.
Now Jiang Zhaohuan's inner lining is a white shirt, which is quite consistent with the uniform worn in school.
He pretended not to hear and asked with a smile:
"So what do you want? I'll go get it."
"A small portion of spicy tteokbokki, a skewer of fish cakes, and gimbap without the carrots, with some tteokbokki sauce on top."
"OK, no problem."
When Jiang Zhaohuan pushed the door and got out of the car, he did not forget to lower the brim of his hat.
He arrived in front of the store, not sure if it was because the bright red food really whetted his appetite or if he wanted to know about Bae Joo-hyun's student days.
When the enthusiastic aunt noticed the guests, she greeted them with a smile:
"What would you like, young man?"
Jiang Zhaohuan took out his wallet and pulled out a large-denomination fifty thousand note. He told Bae Zhuxuan everything she wanted to eat, but before he could say anything about his own food, his aunt interrupted him.
"Hey, are you also a fan of that kid Zhu Xuan?"
Jiang Zhaohuan felt a little puzzled when he heard this, and he asked curiously:
"Aunt, why do you ask?"
"Here, look here."
Only then did Jiang Chaohuan realize that the three items that Bae Zhuxuan often ordered had been made into an Irene set meal.
So that's why my aunt said that.
My aunt smiled and took out a Red Velvet album, a single cover of Irene from her Rookie period.
She pointed at the girl with delicate makeup on the screen and praised her generously:
"This is Zhu Xuan. I watched her grow up. She was very beautiful when she was little. Many boys in school liked her."
"Yes, Zhu Xuan is indeed very beautiful. I like her very much."
My aunt was obviously quite familiar with people. When she heard this, she raised her spatula and said:
"Oh my god, you are younger than Zhu Xuan, right? Is there anyone who speaks in plain language like you?"
"I've met Zhu Xuan several times, and she agreed with me calling her that."
My aunt knew something about the entertainment industry, so she assumed the boy in front of her was a fan who often chased after her offline fans.
She put all the food on the tray and said as she packed it up:
"Then next time you see Zhu Xuan, tell her to come over to my place when she's free, and I'll treat her to a meal."
"Yes, I will definitely convey it."
Jiang Zhaohuan added a portion of fried meat patties which looked delicious. Paired with the sweet and sour ketchup, it couldn't be bad.
He carried the food to the car, thinking of what his aunt had said, and helped to convey it:
"My aunt said that next time you go, she will treat you to these."
"If you weren't here this time, I would have gone."
Jiang Zhaohuan was unhappy when he heard this, and he thought of the classic quotes on the Chinese Internet.
He looked at Zhu Xuan with resentment on his face, put his hand on the handle, and asked:
"Then I'll go?"
"Okay, I'm just joking with you. I'll take you to a good place later."
Jiang Zhaohuan was relatively easy to coax, and he wasn't angry at all.
He smiled, took his hand back, picked up the fried meat patty and started eating.
Bae Joo-hyun's eyes widened, wondering who had just questioned whether she was full.
Jiang Zhaohuan noticed his girlfriend's gaze and said stubbornly:
"If you don't eat the croquettes while they're hot, they won't taste good when they get cold."
"You really look like those people."
"what?"
"I saw this on a social media platform before. Please wait for me."
Bae Joo-hyun parked her car in an open-air parking lot near the school.
She had somewhat forgotten how to pronounce the sentence, and she logged into Big Eyes' account and looked through the posts she had liked.
In order to be able to say it in Chinese, Bae Joo-hyun even looked up the pinyin.
She stared at the phone screen carefully, reading word by word:
"To make food calorie-free, just cool it down."
"So?" "You are just like the person who tries to cover up his mistakes."
"..."
To put it bluntly, I just want to express one meaning: you are lying with open eyes.
You are greedy, but you insist that it won’t taste good if it’s cold.
Jiang Zhaohuan didn't expect that Zhu Xuan was more addicted to social platforms than himself. This kind of thing is usually only known by 5G surfers.
He opened the car door with the food in his hand, looked around and pretended to be unaware.
"So where is our date?"
After Bae Joo-hyun locked the car door, she put the key into Do-hwan's backpack.
She smiled and took her boyfriend's arm, saying happily:
"I'm going to take you to my alma mater."
"Why do you suddenly want to come here?"
"You've never experienced campus romance? Now that you have a boyfriend, don't you want to experience it?"
The school happened to be in a state of low attendance, so there might not be an opportunity in the future.
Pei Zhuxuan led Chaohuan towards the school. She pointed at the doorplate and said:
"Here, this is my alma mater. I haven't been back for a long time."
Henan High School.
Jiang Zhaohuan knew about this school. He had read Bae Zhuxuan's information a long time ago. It described her life from elementary school to high school very clearly and comprehensively.
Artists don’t have much privacy, let alone academic ones.
It's completely transparent.
But what Jiang Zhaohuan didn't expect was that Bae Zhuxuan was going further and further astray. How did she lead him off the right track?
He looked at the school's main entrance not far away with doubt and asked:
"Didn't you say you were going to school? Why didn't you go in when you passed by the door?"
"How can you and I go in together? The security guards are not very tight-lipped. What if our relationship is exposed?"
"So where should I go in?"
Pei Zhuxuan pointed to the not-so-high wall and said as a matter of course:
"Of course I flipped it in, that's how it's played in TV dramas."
"……All right."
Jiang Zhaohuan is 1.88 meters tall, so it is very easy for him to climb over a two-meter-high wall.
He also practiced rock climbing and parkour in preparation for the filming of "Extreme Escape Plan".
Therefore, for the wall in front of him that was less than three meters high, he didn't even need a running start. He simply pushed his foot against the wall and jumped up, then pushed himself over with one hand.
Bae Joo-hyun had never seen Do Hwan do parkour before, and it was completely different from what she saw in the movies.
Observing it up close, she felt even more amazed.
He is worthy of being her boyfriend, he is so handsome even when climbing over the wall!
Pei Zhuxuan couldn't help showing a little proud expression on her face. She shouted to Dohwan who had climbed over the wall:
"Wait for me at the teaching building. I'll be there soon."
"Hurry up, I'm afraid I'll be discovered by the security personnel."
Bae Joo-hyun walked quickly towards the security room, and she found that the security personnel were people she didn't recognize.
She was always introverted, but she didn't back down at this time. She stepped forward and said:
"Hello, excuse me."
The security guard who was playing with his phone was a little confused. Seeing the fully armed girl in front of him, he asked curiously:
"Classmate, which class are you in? Did you forget to take anything?"
During the holidays, students would occasionally return to school to get something, and as security personnel, we were accustomed to this kind of thing.
Bae Joo-hyun had no intention of hiding her identity. She smiled, shook her head, and took off her mask.
The security guard's eyes gradually widened. He was watching Red Velvet's video just now.
Although he is not their fan, he was able to see the artists up close and talk to them, which is something he can brag about for the whole year!
No, you can go to your friends and family and brag about it for ten years!
"Hello, hello, Irene xi!"
When Pei Zhuxuan heard that he recognized her, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She reached into her pocket and pulled out a vitamin drink from the refrigerator at home, then handed it over with a smile:
"This is my alma mater. I want to go in and take a look. Is that okay?"
"Of course."
The security guard thought of the teacher on duty at the school during the holiday and asked,
"There is a teacher on duty today. Maybe he has taught you before. Do you need me to notify him?"
"Ani, no thanks. I just want to go shopping alone today."
"Yes, I will keep it a secret for you until you leave school."
"Consanmidha."
The security guard watched Irene's back as she walked away, and looked at the vitamin drink in his hand, completely reluctant to drink it.
He took out his phone and started taking photos with the drink, preparing to post them on Instagram at the right time so that Irene's fans would be envious.
After Bae Joo-hyun entered the school, she walked towards the teaching building with familiarity.
When she pushed the door open, she didn't see Zhao Huan.
Just as I was about to take out my phone to ask, I heard footsteps on the stairs.
Bae Joo-hyun subconsciously looked up at the stairs and saw a tall and slender figure walking slowly towards her on the steps.
He didn't stop until he got right up to her, standing against the light, his brows shrouded in shadow.
A simple white shirt and black casual pants.
I didn't have a tie, so I deliberately undone one button.
Jiang Zhaohuan went to the bathroom on the second floor and took off his coat and lining, and said with a smile:
"How is it? It looks more like the uniform you wore in high school now, right?"
Pei Zhuxuan retracted her gaze, she quietly lowered her head and swallowed her saliva, then answered the irrelevant question:
"Why did you go upstairs on purpose?"
"There's a maintenance sign on the door of the men's restroom on the first floor and it's locked. I can't just go to the women's restroom to change it, right?"
Bae Joo-hyun looked in the direction he pointed and saw that they were indeed carrying out construction and maintenance.
She smiled and reached out to hold Dohwan's hand, just like an ordinary campus couple.
There are no surveillance cameras in the school corridors, saying it is to protect students' privacy.
The actual reason is that the school is reluctant to spend money to purchase surveillance, nor does it want to hire more technical personnel to be responsible for monitoring.
But this is also a good thing, as it makes it easier for her to bring people into school boldly.
Pei Zhuxuan led Zhaohuan all the way up to the door of the senior three-five class, pointed at the doorplate and said:
"This is the class I graduated from. The desks inside have been replaced with new styles."
"Your high school was several years ago, right?"
Jiang Zhaohuan looked around the classroom and found that the lockers at the back were obviously new.
He waited a long time for his girlfriend's answer, and turned his head in confusion to find that she was staring at him angrily.
Hmm? What happened? Did I say something wrong?
Pei Zhuxuan put her hands on her waist and asked with half-closed eyes:
"Are you implying my age?"
Sure enough, girls are extremely sensitive when it comes to age issues.
Jiang Zhaohuan quickly shook his head. How could he have any hidden meaning? He was just asking casually.
He smiled and leaned over, poked his girlfriend's bulging cheek with his hand, and said gently:
"Am I that kind of person? Even if you become an old woman, you are still my girlfriend."
"Hey, where did you learn such words?"
"Don't you like it?"
Bae Joo-hyun showed an expression of disgust on her face, but the smile in her eyes did not fade at all.
She pretended to rub off her goose bumps and turned around and said:
"It doesn't suit you. Come on, let's go in and take a look."
"Yes, Irene-senpai~"
