Lin Guiying waited for a few minutes outside.
"Hmm... I'm going back."
Her initial embarrassment already subsided, with only a small trace of bittersweetness left. Besides, she felt guilty for leaving Zhou Lei alone in the arcade.
As she walked back to the DDR machine, the surroundings got progressively rowdier as she got closer. Fumbling around and bumping on other people, Lin Guiying eventually arrived at the center point of the mess.
A concentrated mass of people collected right beside the DDR machine, all of them looking fascinated by the technology.
Of course, these people couldn't care less about the machine, but Lin Guiying wouldn't know that.
She tapped someone on the shoulder. "Excuse me sir, what's happening here?"
The stranger turned his head, exposing his face for Lin Guiying to see. "Hmm?"
"Ah, er..." She discreetly scanned the face of the man. It was relatively normal and average looking. What caught her attention was the glasses that he wore...
What was supposed to be the lens that was attached inside the frame of the eyeglasses... were pictures of the famous teen idol, Lin Guiying.
Just then, she remembered the time when the agency she was signed up with, Crystall Entertainment, decided to produce limited edition merchandise. And this pair of glasses... was one of the merchandise.
She could remember being so angry and ashamed that one of the merchandise was that pair of glasses that didn't even allow one to see through! And that wasn't even the worst of the lot!
Because of her reminiscing, her mind was a mess. However, she was a top tier actor, so that didn't show on her face. Instead, she proceeded to ask the guy who wore the ridiculous glasses, "What's the situation here? Why is everyone crowding around this place?"
The man, who was initially thinking that the girl was bothersome, suddenly turned enthusiastic. "Oh, it was because my goddess Lin Guiying had been here!"
The sound of thunder resounded in Lin Guiying's mind. 'What. Are. You. Talking. About.'
"It's like this, last Saturday, someone reported a lost and found item to the staff of the arcade, and after some sleuthing, we found out that the item was Lin Guiying's!"
Composing herself, Lin Guiying continued her interrogation. "Hmm, what kind of item is it? And what kind of sleuthing did you do?"
Seeing the girl becoming interested in the situation, the guy became slightly giddy. 'Awww man, I'm gonna rope this girl in the fandom, and then goddess Lin will have one more fan! She will surely be happy if I do this!'
"The item was a limited edition album, the 'White Flower Season 6 OST'." The guy couldn't contain his ever-increasing smile as he continued to speak.
'White Flower... OST? So that's where it went!' She recalled that the one she bought went missing, so she bought a new one, albeit with the normal cover. Although she was slightly depressed that she didn't get the limited edition cover, it was fine.
As for why she just didn't ask the staff of the anime for the OST with the alternate cover... This idea truly didn't cross her mind. She didn't want to abuse her job to get items and merchandise that were supposed to be limited edition.
"As for the sleuthing... it really wasn't complicated."
Uncomplicated sleuthing? Lin Guiying wondered how they found out that it was hers. Could it be that she wrote her name on it?
