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

Chapter 31 Preparations

The next day, after Lin Xingzhu arrived at the office, she thought for a moment and decided to have her assistant investigate Hurricane Studio again.

She believed Bai Xiying wasn't just talking for the sake of it; since she mentioned considering it further, there must be something she didn't know.

But that vague matter wasn't the most pressing issue right now.

Finding the unnamed character she referred to as "Gong Si" was Lin Xingzhu's primary focus at the moment.

She sighed, and upon realizing this, decided to attend the wedding of the Su family heir in three days.

However, this meant she would have to ask Bai Xiying to be her date that day.

With this in mind, Lin Xingzhu invited Bai Xiying to lunch.

During their meal, Lin Xingzhu casually brought this up.

She knew Bai Xiying was busy preparing for the ASHY design competition and wasn't sure if she would have time to accompany her.

"If you're busy, I can go alone," Lin Xingzhu mused, "It would be a good opportunity to announce that we've broken up."

Bai Xiying looked momentarily stunned; without Lin Xingzhu's reminder, she might have forgotten about it altogether.

The identity of girlfriend had felt utterly fake between her and Lin Xingzhu.

Yet those gradually fading memories seemed to sharpen with those three words.

Bai Xiying lowered her head and joked, "Are you so eager to get rid of me and go back to being single?"

Lin Xingzhu shrugged playfully, "You can't blame me for that."

Clarifying their breakup was good for both of them, at least for their future emotional states.

However, thinking about the future people who would surround Bai Xiying, Lin Xingzhu held back the words, "If you don't want to date, you can use me as a shield." Others might say that, but Lin Xingzhu thought better of it.

This was enough; going further would go against her initial intent to avoid too much intimacy.

Bai Xiying said, "I'll go with you."

She looked up at Lin Xingzhu and realized, "Is it needed by your father?"

Lin Xingzhu didn't deny it.

Her father had indeed urged her to take Bai Xiying along, but Lin Xingzhu thought that being with Bai Xiying while searching for the so-called "Gong Si" would be more fruitful.

After all, the Su family was a local wealthy family, and most of the guests would be prominent figures, including some rich heirs.

Bai Xiying smiled warmly. "Let's do this together; it'll be a good experience for me. As for the breakup, we can deal with it after the banquet."

After discussing this, Bai Xiying lowered her eyes and fell silent for a moment.
