At Bai Familyâs villaâ¦
Bai Shao wore an expression of understanding when he scrolled to the Weibo post. âHere I was wondering why she left so confidently. It turns out that she has found support.â
The comments section was a mess. At a glance, it was filled with attacks against Bai Lin and wails of fans who could not accept the matter.
Bai Xi clutched her phone tightly as she glared at Zhou Guang and Bai Linâs faces in the photos yet her voice was as gentle as ever. âXiao Shao, donât say that. She must have her own difficulties.â
Bai Shao was disdainful. âWhat difficulties can there be? She canât get any money from us, so she goes to other men.â He paused and then said in confusion, âJie, other than her pretty face, Bai Lin canât compare to you in any other way. What do you think Zhou Guang sees in her?â
Did he mean that Bai Lin was better looking than her?
Bai Xi clenched her fingers, but her expression remained unchanged.
She had once acted as a supporting actress in Zhou Guangâs MV, and her company wanted to couple her and Zhou Guang to market them as a couple after that.
However, as soon as they started to do so, Zhou Guangâs company came to them with the threat of terminating the cooperation for violating the rules in asking them to stop what they were doing immediately.
It was no wonder Zhou Guang had no scandal in the entertainment industry. There would be no news if he did not allow it.
That said, Bai Lin knew Zhou Guang.
The cogs in Bai Xiâs head began turning. She did not know how Bai Lin had managed to get close to Zhou Guang, but she was confident that she did not lack compared to her. It was fate that was lacking between her and Zhou Guang.
Zhou Guang would also be attending the variety show this time. If Bai Lin returned to the Bai Family, Bai Xi could get more information about Zhou Guang from her, or use her to get in touch with Zhou Guang directly. Things would be more under control this way. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Bai Xi looked up with eyes full of worry. âDid jiejie encounter the bad guys? The showbiz isnât a nice place. If she takes things too hard and goes astray, itâll cost her her future.â
Bai Shao sighed, âYouâre too kind to still be worried about her at a time like this. Her infoâs all exposed online. Dad and mom must be so angry that sheâs being this embarrassing on the internet.â
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Xiaoâs phone call came in.
âBai Xi! Hurry and call Bai Lin home! She knows nothing but embarrasses herself online! Donât take her to that variety show anymore either. When she comes back, put her in the backyard so she could reflect on her actions!â
Bai Xiaoâs roar could be heard by Bai Shao even if the speaker was not turned on.
Bai Lin pursed her lips and replied, âOkay, dad. Donât worry. She might not have done it on purpose. Iâll go look for her now.â
Not only did these words of comfort not calm Bai Xiaoâs anger, they made him roar even louder, âNot on purpose? If she didnât do it on purpose, would she not pick up my call? Enough, tell her to get her ass back here and stop embarrassing herself out there!â
Then, he hung up the phone.
âShe shouldnât have come back,â Bai Shao said angrily, âShe stirs up nothing but sh*t. How many years has it been since dad got this angry? Youâre also implicated.â
Bai Xi did not say anything and called Bai Lin directly.
After three rings, a leisurely and pleasant voice sounded from the other end of the phone. âHello?â
This voice was too unique. Bai Xi was stunned for a moment before she immediately figured it out. She suppressed her disgruntlement and slowed down her voice, âHello, may I know who you are?â
Zhou Guang did not answer her question. âWho are you?â
Other than the job last time, Bai Xi had never contacted Zhou Guang in private. Although she was currently excited, her rationality prevailed.
She made her voice sound even sweeter. âIâm Bai Linâs younger sister. I have some family matters to discuss with her. You are? Why is my sisterâs phone with you? Is itâ¦â
âSheâs not free.â
Zhou Guang hung up.
Bai Xi called again, but it did not go through.
She was blocked.
âWho is it?â Bai Lin wore an apron when she stuck her head out of the door. âI just heard my phone ring.â
Zhou Guang answered, âSomeone from the Bai Family. Talks too much, so I hung up.â
Bai Lin thought for a moment with a tilt of head. âI guess they want me to go back.â
Zhou Guang nodded and walked over to retie Bai Linâs apron. âWere you upset spending these days at the Bai Family? I can take you to a friendâs ice-skating rink?â
Bai Lin nodded and smiled. âIâm good. I donât have any more worries once I see you.â
