So, for the next two days, Yin Xian started a life of taking selfies whenever he was bored.
"Brother Yin Xian! Can you stop pointing that camera at me! I'm so tired from filming for so many days!" The exterior shooting in Japan finally wrapped up, and that night, a group of the main creators held a celebration banquet at the hotel. Lee Byung-hun, who had drunk a bit too much, complained to Yin Xian, who was holding the camera and filming.
"Brother Byung-hun, what's there to be afraid of? No matter how you film, you always look so handsome," Yin Xian said with a smile.
Lee Byung-hun snatched the camera and pulled Yin Xian over, putting his arm around Yin Xian's shoulder and said to the camera, "Hey, let me introduce everyone to our maknae, Yin Xian!"
"Brother Byung-hun! TOP is younger than me by age!"
"He debuted earlier than you!"
"…Brother Byung-hun, what do you want to say, just say it."
"This kid, when it comes to acting, he's great, better than me, but his brain just doesn't work! You see, the other night, during that scene, there were a few extras, and one of the girls seemed to match you well, almost sticking to you, but you didn't react at all! What's wrong with you? You've never even been in a relationship, and you went to record a marriage variety show. You're going to bully the girl who marries you, what's her name again…"
"Yoon Jung."
"Yoon Jung, right, Yoon Jung xi, you've worked hard. This kid is actually quite smart, just lazy. You need to educate him more! But this kid is actually pretty good in other aspects, especially in making money. Oh, we all really admire him. If you think he's okay, don't let him go!"
"Hey! Brother Byung-hun! You've had too much to drink!" Yin Xian snatched the camera and escaped from Lee Byung-hun's grasp.
Then, Yin Xian forgot that he had recorded all this and returned the camera to the PD. This footage ended up appearing on the show "We Got Married."
After that, Yin Xian's fans started discussing the topic of "How rich is OPPA?"...
But that was almost a month later.
The next day, the "IRIS" crew returned to Tokyo, and they had a day of activities before flying back to Korea in the evening.
Yin Xian's free time was spent taking the camera given by the production team to film himself buying coffee for Yoon Jung.
However, before Yin Xian could even leave the hotel lobby, he ran into Kim Tae-hee, who was also preparing to go out for a walk. Kim Tae-hee joined the Tokyo shopping trip, claiming she wanted to buy a wedding gift for her "younger sister."
"Sister Tae-hee, are you sure it's okay for us to go out together like this?" Yin Xian held the camera, taking a selfie of himself and Kim Tae-hee, who was holding his arm.
"Oh, it's fine. I don't think many people will recognize me in Japan, and with sunglasses, even fewer will," Kim Tae-hee tried to reassure Yin Xian.
"I think wearing sunglasses will make you stand out more. Sister Tae-hee, why don't you change into some less attractive clothes or not wear makeup? Okay?" Yin Xian looked at Kim Tae-hee, who felt good with her sunglasses on.
"Hey! Not wearing makeup! Do you know that asking a woman to show her bare face is very impolite?" Kim Tae-hee got upset.
"Sister, you're naturally beautiful, so you don't have to worry. Why don't you wear a black frame instead? Your sunglasses are too flashy." Yin Xian was a bit afraid of Kim Tae-hee's 200%回头率 (turn heads) look. Today, they were going out without their agents and without the production team, and if something happened... it would be fine for him, but if they encountered a pervert, it would be a disaster. After all, there was one part of today's itinerary that made Yin Xian uneasy...
"Alright, alright!" Kim Tae-hee reluctantly waved her hand, took off her flashy sunglasses, and put on a black frame.
"Like this, Sister Tae-hee looks even more elegant. This won't do." Yin Xian shook his head, half-jokingly.
"Hey! Are you done yet!" Kim Tae-hee pretended to be angry and pulled Yin Xian out of the hotel. Although Yin Xian was complaining, his words... were clearly flattery...
They called a taxi and went to the address of the boutique that Yin Xian's fans had left for him.
Perhaps because the direction was too clear, it took Yin Xian less than a minute to complete the coffee purchase.
"Your Japanese is pretty good!" Kim Tae-hee whispered to Yin Xian.
"I learned it when I was bored," Yin Xian's otaku pride kicked in.
Kim Tae-hee wasn't in a hurry to leave and started looking at some of the other items in the boutique.
"Sister Tae-hee, is there anything you like?" Yin Xian played the role of a shopping card.
When the two came out of the boutique an hour later...
They hadn't bought anything.
Yin Xian couldn't understand why women went shopping without buying anything, even in his past life. He still didn't understand today and probably never would...
Akihabara.
When Yin Xian first heard this name in his past life, it was to buy computer parts.
For a long time, he thought it was a place like Huaqiangbei.
Much later, he realized he was wrong.
Although it wasn't his style, he still acknowledged Akihabara as the "Holy Land of Otaku."
So when Kim Tae-hee was surprised by the cuteness of the female fan who met Yin Xian, Yin Xian wasn't surprised at all.
When the female fan invited him to a nearby famous maid café, he was... well, he was still surprised.
But the otaku side of his personality was still a significant part of him. Although he pretended to be calm in front of the camera, his eyes occasionally betrayed his excitement.
Perhaps the atmosphere here didn't match Kim Tae-hee's, so Yin Xian didn't want to stay too long. After buying a cute plush toy, he said goodbye to his fan and left with Kim Tae-hee.
That night, Yin Xian boarded the flight back to Seoul.
As soon as Yin Xian got off the plane and turned on his phone, he received a call.
"Yin Xian xi, hello, I'm PD Cho."
"Oh, hello."
"I want to inform you that we have arranged for filming at the airport arrival area..."
"Is it really necessary to rush like this?" Yin Xian found it a bit amusing.
"Tomorrow is the broadcast day for the Sunday show... You and Yoon Jung xi are the most popular couple in the second season, and everyone is very interested in you two. Before this, since you were always apart, we didn't have much content to film..."
"Alright... Sigh, you guys are really working hard." Yin Xian said helplessly.
"Thank you for your understanding!" It was clear that PD Cho was very grateful.
"No problem." Since there was going to be an interview, Yin Xian turned on the self-recording camera again.
After going through the immigration procedures, Yin Xian finally appeared in the airport arrival hall.
The arrival hall was packed with fans welcoming him.
However, Yin Xian glanced around and didn't see Yoon Jung's figure.
He felt a bit proud and a bit disappointed.
Proud because he had told all his fans not to come to the airport, and they had listened. Disappointed because... none of them had come.
Although the fans still cheered loudly when they saw Yin Xian, the cheers quickly disappeared as he quickly left.
"OPPA! General! Wait!" Just as Yin Xian was about to rush to the taxi stand, he heard someone calling from behind.
"Yoon Jung... Ah, Princess? Why are you here?" Yin Xian was a bit happy to see Yoon Jung.
"General, you've been abroad for so long, didn't you miss me?" Yoon Jung caught up, followed by a cameraman and PD. Yin Xian then realized that the filming PD mentioned was Yoon Jung coming to the airport to pick him up.
"Of course! I often think of you. Do you miss me?" Yin Xian answered sincerely and asked with a bit of excitement.
"Yes! I came to pick you up because I missed you." Yoon Jung smiled, and Yin Xian was momentarily stunned.
Then Yoon Jung reached out her hand directly.
"Oh!" Yin Xian also reached out and pulled it to his mouth to kiss.
"Get lost!" Yoon Jung quickly opened Yin Xian's hand, "Where's the gift?"
"Do you want it now?" Yin Xian asked.
"I prepared flowers for you!" Yoon Jung, as if just remembering, took the bouquet from the assistant and handed it to Yin Xian.
...
Yin Xian felt a bit cold. Was this too formal?
"It's in the suitcase. How can I give it to you here?"
"Oh, then let's go, get in the car." Yoon Jung said to Yin Xian.
Then, as if she suddenly saw something, she hugged Yin Xian's arm.
"What are you doing..." Yin Xian was startled.
"Xian! Aren't you going to introduce me to your younger sister?" Kim Tae-hee's voice came from behind Yin Xian.
Yin Xian then noticed Kim Tae-hee and quickly said, "Sister Tae-hee, this is my wife, Yoon Jung. Yoon Jung, this is my sister, Kim Tae-hee."
"Hello, Kim Tae-hee xi! I'm a member of T-ara, and Yin Xian OPPA's wife, Yoon Jung. Nice to meet you!" Yoon Jung bowed deeply to Kim Tae-hee.
"Yoon Jung xi, hello, I'm Yin Xian's sister, Kim Tae-hee. Nice to meet you. You don't have to be so formal. Our little Xian isn't very well-behaved, so you need to be patient with him!" Kim Tae-hee smiled, her eyes forming a crescent moon.
"You two are done! There are so many fans watching!" Yin Xian, oblivious to the tension between the two women, only noticed the growing enthusiasm of the fans who had come to pick him up.
"Then, Sister Tae-hee, I'll go with Yin Xian first. Please take care." Yoon Jung, holding Yin Xian's arm, half-pulled, half-dragged him away.
