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

Chapter 65 Strange Girl

The girl who ran in wore a blue princess dress, playful and cute without being overly flashy. With her cheerful demeanor, she looked like the kind of well-behaved little girl that adults adore.

At least, judging by Jiang's mother's expression, she clearly liked Chu Tiantian.

However...

Lin Xingzhu glanced at Jiang Yeyue, whose expression was a mix of shock and frustration, and her brow furrowed slightly.

Because Jiang Yeyue had previously confided in her, Lin Xingzhu instinctively had a bad impression of Chu Tiantian.

Bai Xiying, on the other hand, was momentarily stunned when she saw the newcomer.

But she was quite perceptive and quickly captured the subtle expressions of those present in response to the girl who had just come through the door.

What she didn't understand was the connection between Chu Tiantian and the Jiang family.

"Auntie, is Yeyue back?!" Chu Tiantian exclaimed upon seeing the familiar girl sitting next to Jiang's mother, her smile widening in surprise.

Jiang's mother nodded with a smile and beckoned her to sit. "Yes, she just got back a couple of days ago, so you don't have to wait any longer."

When they used to play together, Jiang Yeyue often brought Chu Tiantian home, so Jiang's mother was already familiar with her.

Since Jiang Yeyue announced her intention to drop out and go to City A, Chu Tiantian had occasionally come to visit her on weekends, trying to find out where Jiang Yeyue had gone.

However, since Jiang Yeyue had insisted that her parents keep her whereabouts a secret, Jiang's mother, despite her confusion, respected that confidentiality and didn't tell Chu Tiantian where Jiang Yeyue was.

Even though she hadn't disclosed anything, Jiang's mother had gleaned from Chu Tiantian's remarks that the two were having a falling out. To an adult, it was normal for young girls to quarrel, so while she didn't inform Chu Tiantian of Jiang Yeyue's whereabouts, she didn't mind her occasional visits.

Chu Tiantian's round eyes immediately sparkled as she looked toward Jiang Yeyue.

She had already managed to find out where Jiang Yeyue was; if Jiang Yeyue hadn't returned, Chu Tiantian would have likely snuck back to City S without telling her family.

As Chu Tiantian gazed at Jiang Yeyue, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, just as she was about to flatter her with kind words, her gaze suddenly fixed on someone very familiar but unexpected.

Noticing Chu Tiantian's focus shift to Bai Xiying, Lin Xingzhu was briefly puzzled and quietly asked Bai Xiying, "Do you know each other?"
