The sales associate, engrossed in the drama, never forgot her duties. When the two stopped their conversation and embrace, she stepped forward slightly, feigning ignorance of everything that had transpired, and kept her initial smile, sweetly guiding the two.

At this moment, Bai Xiying also composed herself and naturally expressed her needs to the sales associate.

She wanted to select a few suits for future use. When she went to S City, she planned to focus on preparing for the competition, as it was crucial for her career path.




Since Bai Xiying left her previous job at Hurricane, she had been gradually sharing some of her past artwork on social media, attracting a small group of fans.

For her future career plans, Bai Xiying released a few derivative illustrations of characters from classic films and television shows. When choosing these characters, she considered the pros and cons, deliberately selecting popular figures from works that had long been revered, ensuring she would draw attention without risking backlash.




And indeed, this strategy worked; her account gained a modest following thanks to these works. Although it wasn't huge, Bai Xiying was not in a hurry.

Reflecting on this, a cold glimmer suddenly flashed in Bai Xiying's otherwise soft and charming eyes as she faced Lin Xingzhu.


She was confident in her abilities, but not blindly so; Bai Xiying understood that there were always others who were more capable, so she would prepare diligently for the competition.




With this in mind, she traced the fabric of the clothes the sales associate had brought her with her fingers, letting out a slight sigh as if thinking of the loneliness of being apart: "Once I get there, we'll have to separate."

Lin Xingzhu, who had accompanied her in selecting clothes, replied, "It's okay; time will pass quickly. We can keep in touch on our phones, and I can fly over to see you on weekends."
