Chapter 32: Interrupting

[…]

[I understand you up there, sister.]

[Best Actor’s character setting is ruined! Did he just let Bai Lin drag him along? Didn’t he say in an interview that he hates being touched by others the most?]

[Maybe Bai Lin isn’t just others.]

[And the way he looks at Bai Lin, he’s so sweet and clingy. It’s not too much for me to think that they’re a couple for a second, right?]

[I suspect that there’s something wrong with my brain. Isn’t Best Actor a little scheming? He made sure Bai Lin saw his wounds before he pulled his sleeves down.]

[They’re real!]

Bai Xi’s group stopped to rest for a while. When Bai Lin made a deal with them, she did not set a time limit for their work. They worked for three hours in a row, purely out of the fact that “the more they worked, the bigger the loss Bai Lin would suffer”.

When they worked together, the result was fruitful. It was rare that they did not have any ulterior motive, so after three hours of hard work, they actually got 173 bamboos and 133 pieces of banana leaves.

In terms of points, Bai Lin had to pay them more than 120 points.

It meant that Bai Lin would lose more than 40 points!

Bai Xi followed Lin Shu to the supply station, where Bai Lin was applying medicine for Yan Ruo.

Yan Ruo’s wounds were not serious at all, but Bai Lin seemed to be protecting some precious treasure. She applied the medicine on him very gently, and even asked if it hurt from time to time.

Zhou Guang said sarcastically, “That’s right. Yan Ruo’s about to die from the pain. Luckily, you’re applying the medicine for him or his wounds would’ve healed then.”

Yan Ruo did not say a word as he stared at Bai Lin’s fingers on his arm.

His eyelashes were long and thick, casting shadow under his eyes. His skin was porcelain white, and he looked even more fragile and aloof.

Bai Lin sighed, “Yan-ge is different from us. At least you’ve trained with me before. You aren’t tender-skinned like him.”

Zhou Guang immediately opened his palm. “I’m also injured.”

Bai Lin looked at him and patted his hand calmly. “Alright, San-ge. It’s just a small injury. It doesn’t hurt or itch.”

Zhou Guang huffed as he slung an arm over Bai Lin’s shoulders and rubbed her head. “Okay, I see. You’re forgetting about your old brother now that you have a new one, right?”

Bai Xi covered her mouth and laughed. “Meimei, it’s your fault now. Greatest Singer Zhou’s the one who brought you here. I know you like Best Actor Yan, but you can’t be biased.”

The atmosphere suddenly became a little tense when the three of them were interrupted by Bai Xi. Zhou Guang looked distant and polite. “I don’t think it has anything to do with you, Miss Bai?”

[Yeah, Bai Xi is really a busybody. The atmosphere was originally harmonious, but she insisted on butting in. She’s just forcing herself in there?]

[I’m dying of laughter. Don’t the netizens have any values these days? Without Zhou Guang, there wouldn’t be Bai Lin. Why does Bai Lin ignore her brother when she sees Best Actor Yan?]

[Bai Lin’s kind of a b*tch. She treats Yan Ruo as a friend on the surface but in reality, she’s just trying to leech off his popularity. She’s too scheming.]

[Did you guys up there in the comments watch the show? Bai Lin is clearly carrying Yan Ruo and Zhou Guang in this show, okay? She only let the two of them do some work today. Usually, she’s the one hunting and catching fish.]

After Zhou Guang spoke, Bai Xi did not feel embarrassed either. Instead, she gently moved closer to Yan Ruo, making sure that the camera could capture the two of them. Then, she gently said, “I was just worried about my sister. I’m afraid that she wouldn’t be able to handle the social interactions well, so I’m just saying. Since there’s nothing wrong, just pretend that I didn’t say anything.”

Bai Lin glanced at her and said, “You’re so kind, meimei. Since you’re so kind, why don’t you help me cut some bamboos?”

Bai Xi deliberately touched her hands. Her hands were also injured, and the skin on her palm was a little chafed. She looked troubled. “Um… Okay. If you ask this of me, I’ll do it.”

She made it seem like Bai Lin was making things difficult for her.

[Bai Lin must be crazy. Xixi is our precious baby. Why is she acting like she’s a maid to her? Is she really just going order her around?]

[I hate Bai Lin. She’s so disgusting. I don’t want to watch this show anymore. When is she going to quit? I’ll watch it when Xixi is the only one left.]

[Xixi and Best Actor Yan are in the same frame! With such a height difference, Best Actor Yan can kiss Baby Xixi just by lowering his head. It’s so romantic with just enough sexual tension. I’m dying.]

[Don’t go over the line, Bai Xi’s fans. Bai Xi’s only in the same frame as Yan Ruo, and you’re already shipping them? What about Yan Ruo’s soft gaze when Bai Lin applied medicine for him just now? Does this mean that they already have two children?]

[Bai Xi’s fans understand that their star is like a servant, huh? It’s not Bai Lin’s fault. Someone’s rushing to be a servant. Who can stand this?]

Bai Lin thought that Bai Xi was really good at taking advantage of the situation. She had gained pity points from fans again and made her the bad person this time.

How could that be?

Bai Lin grabbed Bai Xi right away, causing the latter to show disgust momentarily as she tried to avoid it.
