After Transmigrating into a book, I Was Played By a Black Lotus

Chapter 29 Invitations

Bai Xiying tilted her head, watching the woman focused on driving.

Her expression was obscure, and the car was filled with unspoken silence.

Her period was most tormenting in the first three days, both in terms of pain and sensitivity, making her emotions easily spiral out of control.

So during this time, Bai Xiying tried to avoid crowds as much as possible.

For this reason, she had specifically taken a day off from her studio to work from home.

But Bai Xiying knew very well that on the first night when Lin Xingzhu was there, her emotions hadn't gone awry at all.

Instead, it was Lin Xingzhu whose sudden shifts in demeanor during dinner and the strange feeling she exuded over the past couple of days made her hard to read.

Bai Xiying couldn't be certain, but after several days of observation and reflection, she vaguely felt that Lin Xingzhu seemed to be distancing herself.

No, it wasn't quite distancing.

It was a feeling that couldn't be articulated accurately; there weren't the right words to describe it, but deep down, one could sense the difference.

Unable to understand it, Bai Xiying decided to temporarily let it go. She had always been patient with everything, and lying low seemed to have become her instinct.

Glancing at the LED screen flashing images in the distance, Bai Xiying asked her, "Do you know Xin Jinglan?"

Lin Xingzhu turned her head, looking puzzled. "... Who is that?"

Bai Xiying caught her gaze, not missing a beat. "A popular star, very beautiful."

Lin Xingzhu found it strange that Bai Xiying suddenly brought up a celebrity; she wasn't someone who followed stars.

"I was bored at home a few days ago and watched a show, which is how I came to know her," Bai Xiying smiled. "I found her quite stylish and couldn't help but ask you about her."

Lin Xingzhu replied, "I don't know her. I don't pay attention to these things."

Bai Xiying sighed, as if feeling quite regretful.

"Really? I was planning to recommend her to you," Bai Xiying shrugged, teasing, "After all, you never know when you might cross paths with her."

Lin Xingzhu recalled the Lin family's business landscape and smiled, "You're not wrong; it could actually happen."

This seemed to be just a small interlude on the way to work, and Lin Xingzhu didn't think much of it.

Bai Xiying's gaze drifted past her, looking out the window at the changing lights ahead, and smiled faintly.

Xin Jinglan was indeed a beautiful star, but she wasn't currently very popular, and the shows she acted in were only small-time productions.

As for why Bai Xiying brought her up?

Before her rebirth, Xin Jinglan had been immensely famous due to a public incident, essentially known by everyone in the country.
