After putting energy into work, it is generally difficult for people to feel the passage of time.

In the blink of an eye, the most anticipated holiday in February has arrived, which is Valentine’s Day, which is eagerly awaited by all lovers.

Although they have been together for more than a year, Liu Xinan and Bae Zhuhyun are still in a state of passionate love because they always get along very sweetly.

For couples who are in love, Valentine's Day is actually not a particularly special day worth celebrating. After all... for them, as long as they are together, it can be considered Valentine's Day.

Bae Zhuhyun, who had been thinking for a long time, raised her hand and gently knocked on the door of Office Director Kim's office.

"Come in."

Pei Zhuxuan opened the door and walked into the office with light steps. She first bowed politely to Director Kim, then said hello. After receiving the response, she sat in front of Director Kim.

Looking at the woman in front of him who showed no emotion, Chief Jin was slightly confused.

"Did something go wrong during the preparation process?"

The shooting of the music video has also ended. In the past two days, they have been cooperating with the company in preparing for their return, including but not limited to the shooting of various pictorials and some behind-the-scenes videos that will be released later.

Probably because their commercial value has increased a lot, the material resources the company has prepared for them this time are much more than before.

"No, I have something I want to talk to the room director about."

This was an answer that was beyond Chief Jin's expectation. He raised his eyebrows with a look of surprise.

"oh?"

"It's about what you mentioned to me last time, about my personal variety show after my return."

"Ah...what's the problem with that?"

"I would like to ask something more specific. You said you would take photos about my work and life, right?"

"It's like this. During that time, you should be going abroad. Well...but it's not China. China is going during the Tuanzong period. If you think you are going, you probably want to go to Europe. The specific situation has not been determined yet."

"That's it... I don't have any requirements for the shooting location, but there is one thing I want to discuss with you..."

"Is it a matter of the staff appearing together?"

Pei Zhuxuan pursed her lips and nodded slightly, then she showed a puzzled expression: "I don't understand the company's intention. Isn't that incident in the past? If you arrange such a job for me now, won't it make everyone think again?

What about getting up?"

"Well... I understand what you mean, but there is one thing you need to be clear about, Erin. Your sense of variety shows does not support you supporting a show alone. Letting the staff appear together is indeed an attempt to whitewash your previous incident.

But equally, they are also the actors in your show."

Chief Jin replied in a deep voice.

As he said, Bae Zhuhyun is the most popular member in the team and the one with the least resources.

And this year, Bae Zhuhyun has obtained the resources that originally belonged to her, coupled with the storm of public opinion that has been surrounding her in the past two years... This personal variety show is bound to attract the attention of many, many people.

So, maximizing Bae Zhuhyun's commercial value is the company's goal this time.

Rather than saying it is a personal variety show, this is actually more like a "product display session". During the recording of the show, Bae Joo Hyun will definitely change into many sets of clothes, jewelry, and various fashionable items.

While clearing herself, she can also show her commercial value, and then she can also advertise for her team variety show after her solo variety show, as well as her return at the end of the year...

These are internal company requirements.

Finally, putting all these things aside, there is a deeper purpose for clearing Pei Zhuhyun's name, and that is...

"This year, you are the transnational couple that our country and China are highly promoting. There can be no black spots in you that can be used to make a fuss. This whitewashing is inevitable."

"Can…"

Looking at Pei Zhuhyun's eyes that were gradually darkening, Chief Kim took off his glasses, sighed deeply, and his tone became much softer.

"Of course, you don't have to accept this plan, but the premise is that you have to come up with a plan that can convince the company...at least you can convince me."

Pei Zhuhyun was stunned by the sudden change of conversation. Then she showed a surprised expression and stood up abruptly.

"Are you telling the truth?"

Kim was very happy. In fact, everything he said above was the request of the company's upper management, and he... knew Pei Zhuxuan better than the bosses.

After all, she is Pei Zhuhyun's most direct leader. If he doesn't even know what his employees are thinking, then he has failed as a leader.

From the beginning, Chief Kim knew that Bae Zhuhyun would definitely be dissatisfied with this project, so he did not directly take the job, but used a tactful way to deal with it.

Anyway, there is still a long time before filming, which is enough time for him to take Bae Zhuhyun's opinions into consideration.

Now that Pei Zhuxuan can bring it up on his own, he feels happy and relaxed.

"Well, I knew you wouldn't agree, so I also told the president that there is still plenty of time. You should first come up with a plan that can convince me."

Pei Zhuxuan suppressed the feeling of cheering, and then she became very aggrieved. This person should have known why he didn't tell her on the first day. She has prepared many reasons to convince Director Jin in the past few days!

"Then... when is the latest time I can come up with the plan?"

"Before returning, I don't think you will have time to prepare those things when you return. You can work hard on yourself before you are completely busy."

"Guilty! I understand, room chief!"

Bae Zhuhyun saluted Chief Kim very cutely, then turned around happily and prepared to leave.

But before leaving, another possibility suddenly crossed her mind.

Her movements froze, then she hesitated, turned back, and asked in a low voice.

"Director, did... Xin'an call you?"

"Xin'an? Liu Xin'an? Why did he call me?"

It is undeniable that the president is willing to give Bae Zhuhyun the opportunity to prepare her own plans, and a large part of it is really because of Liu Xin'an's face.

But Liu Xin'an's phone call really didn't happen.

"Huh, it's nothing, I'm just overthinking, room manager."

"Well, if you have nothing to do, go back and continue preparations. If you are planning... you should make it interesting and show your charm at the same time. These two points are very important."

"Gui~ I will think about it seriously."

"good."

After bowing politely to Director Jin again and again, she walked out of the office, her excitement finally uncontrollable.

She was as excited as a child, silently cheering for herself.

But soon she felt that her actions were extremely stupid, so, with her cheeks red and pretending that nothing happened, she quickly left from the door of Chief Kim's office.

…

"Today is Valentine's Day. If you don't go to accompany your girlfriend, does it really matter if you come to see me?"

If the person sitting opposite Liu Xin'an said this was a woman, a bloody mistress drama might be about to take place.

But it is a pity that the person sitting in front of Liu Xin'an at this time is a man.

Dai Zhiyuan took a sip of coffee and asked Liu Xin'an jokingly.

Liu Xin'an spread his hands. To be honest, he was hesitant to go see Bae Zhuhyun today. After all, he said he would not put pressure on that person. In the past ten days since the New Year, except for the quarrel between Bae Zhuhyun and Kang Seulgi on the day of returning to China, he had

I met Bae Zhuhyun once.

The rest of the time, more communication is done on mobile phones, video calls, voice chats and the like.

Of course it's a lie to say that she doesn't miss her, but... Liu Xin'an still remembers her stressed look. He didn't think Pei Zhuhyun had the energy and time to prepare any Valentine's Day gifts for him. He did prepare it himself, but after all

give or not...

"They're coming back soon. Let's wait until they finish this busy period. For a couple with a good relationship like us, every day is Valentine's Day as long as we are together."

This large portion of dog food made Dai Zhiyuan wear a mask of pain. He regrets it now. Can he drive Liu Xin'an away?

"Let's get down to business. I have work to do here this time." He looked seriously, cleared his throat, and then spoke seriously to Liu Xin'an.

As soon as these words came out, Liu Xin'an, who was cheerful just now, also stopped his playful smile.

"The day after tomorrow in the afternoon, the media here will conduct an interview with us on the 30th anniversary of our establishment of diplomatic relations with them, and your name will be included."

"Um..."

"Then in the afternoon the day after tomorrow, there will be a meeting that needs you to attend. You don't need to do anything, just come along."

"I?"

"Yes, then, SBS also wants to interview you and Irene. I don't know if S-M received the message, but because you don't have an agency, this invitation was sent directly to our embassy."

Dai Zhiyuan told Liu Xin'an one by one about the recent situation. With the end of the Spring Festival, life on track began to proceed step by step.

Those tasks that had been decided a long time ago have gradually entered into the proper process.

Dai Zhiyuan...or the embassy gave Liu Xin'an a lot of help. As a Chinese, Liu Xin'an naturally had to cooperate in carrying out decent publicity.

"And there are TV interviews?"

"Yes, but this time it won't be an entertainment section. You and Irene should be attending some more formal occasions."

Liu Xin'an nodded.

"That's the general situation this month. I won't call you for some scattered small activities. In March... I will inform you again at that time, ah! Also, I will introduce you to a friend later."
