Chapter 612: A Flower of Worldly Wealth Guards the Door

Ding-dong~

Hearing his phone make a sound, Bai Liang initially didn't really want to pay attention.

It wasn't likely there was anything urgent that needed handling right away, and if he reached for his phone now, Miss Li Xin would surely hit him with a "Is your phone more fun than me?"

But when the phone just kept going ding-dong, ding-dong nonstop — anyone who didn't know better would think it was providing sound effects for the exercise happening in the room — even Li Xin couldn't stand it anymore.

"Why don't you just check which little sister is looking for you, it's the middle of the night, she really can't sit still"

Hearing this, Bai Liang naturally reached over and picked up his phone to take a look, then immediately defended himself:

"It's not some little sister, hurry up and apologize to me~"

"Huh?"

It wasn't? That did surprise Li Xin a little.

But at a time like this, "apologize" naturally didn't mean "I'm sorry."

She rolled her eyes, feeling her strength drain away another few degrees, not really wanting to talk anymore, and simply hummed: "Then punish me hard, I'll take it all"

In the middle of the vigorous punishment, Bai Liang casually tapped open the chat interface.

The most recent thing sent was a video.

Tap to watch~

"I'm out! I'm out!"

That bright, cheerful tone, plus the bouncing up and down movements

"Are you watching Journey to the West?" Li Xin, hearing the commotion, really couldn't hold back anymore — even though she felt a bit tingly, she still found it strange, this thing can be used to set the mood too?

Before, wasn't it always watching her dramas?

"It's not Journey to the West."

Bai Liang was amused too, damn it, why is Sister Tian Tian acting like a monkey just breaking free from Five Finger Mountain.

"Huh? A girl's voice, you just said it wasn't some little sister and made me apologize!"

Li Xin finally caught on — the words were the monkey's, but the voice definitely wasn't~

*Slap! *

Bai Liang gave a light smack, seemingly a bit displeased with her questioning.

But Master Bai was still very reasonable — after the smack, he offered an explanation: "It really isn't some little sister, this is an older sister~"

Li Xin:.

Can't take it anymore! Now it's her turn to punish this fickle and shameless capybara hard!

A big flip right over!

To this, Bai Liang actually thought she was being very considerate.

Now he could really just lie there motionless, phone in hand, replying to Sister Tian Tian's message.

But what he didn't expect was that Sister Tian Tian was also a woman of action.

The other party told him she was already on her way to Yanjing to meet up with him, the video just now was filmed at the high-speed rail station when there weren't many people around, and right now she was already sitting on the high-speed train.

The place where she was filming wasn't very far from Yanjing, at most an hour to get there.

A large amount of champagne spilled across the room, making the air seem to carry a slightly intoxicating scent.

But while this stuff was quite enjoyable when used to set the mood, afterward it became rather annoying.

No one can be drenched all over in this stuff and still happily lie in bed to sleep — sticky and icky, it's really uncomfortable.

Of course, if one is extremely exhausted, it can be ignored.

Just drop everything and fall asleep, cleaning yourself up tomorrow morning is fine too.

But not this time!

Even though Li Xin was already very tired, she still forced herself to get up and take a shower.

But this late at night, she didn't bother doing her makeup properly — she just tied her hair back and found a baseball cap to wear.

She's a female celebrity after all, hats, sunglasses, masks and such are always on hand.

Sunglasses were out of the question, wearing those things at night is pretty dumb, but a mask was fine — after all, Li Xin was bare-faced right now.

With this whole getup, paired with appropriate clothes, she actually looked rather cool.

At least unlike Sister Tian Tian, who was still dressed to the nines late at night, with her whole face exposed, looking like she was afraid people wouldn't recognize her.

The two girls' completely opposite styles of dress, once they met, actually made both of them quite happy inside.

Sister Tian Tian felt she was dressed way prettier than the other! In industry professional terms, this is called outshining~

Because her looks lacked a bit of edge, she rarely got the chance to outshine anyone.

Most of the time everyone said she never lost standing next to whoever she was paired with.

This was actually a form of recognition in itself, and now her team liked using this kind of thing for press releases and marketing, but Sister Tian Tian herself wasn't very fond of it.

If she could outshine someone, who wouldn't want to?

Besides, she was the one properly going on the hot search with Bai Liang for drama promotion, so there was nothing to worry about at all!

Li Xin looked at the slightly delighted look in the other's big eyes and was a bit puzzled.

This happy to see me? Is she sick

As for why Li Xin was happy — it was because she thought a bit further ahead.

Coming out to meet up late at night, huh — the more low-key the dress, the more it looks like a date, right!

Her whole outfit was exactly the kind of getup people in the industry wear when secretly dating and meeting up.

Wearing a hat and mask, if someone spotted her and didn't recognize her at first, people would still say Bai Liang was on a late-night date with a mysterious woman.

Once the identity of this "mysterious woman" was revealed, the whole secretive act would make people think the two of them really had something going on, secretly dating.

Unlike Sister Tian Tian — anyone with half a brain would know she was just trying to stage a photo op for scandal marketing.

Bai Liang: Tonight, actually, no one was arranged to take photos.

Those two girls were overthinking it. Sister Tian Tian had rushed over in such a hurry, and Sister Yanzi—who originally thought she couldn't come out at all right now—had arranged everyone for the next stop.

So no matter how the two of them posed, it was all for nothing.

As for proper, legitimate paparazzi, Bai Liang felt that recently there didn't seem to be any paparazzi following him around anymore.

Before, they came in wave after wave, one after another, each one stubbornly refusing to back down, as if swearing to defend the glory of the paparazzi profession.

But after crashing headlong into the wall and getting their heads bashed bloody, they finally realized just how hard that wall was.

Paparazzi: We're scared, we're scared! You, Bai Bai Daxian, are seriously damn uncanny!

So, the ones who still occasionally come to follow and shoot Bai Liang now are either legitimate media people temporarily moonlighting, or brand-new paparazzi who just entered the business and don't yet believe in such uncanny things.

The veteran paparazzi have basically all been "beaten into submission."

Even if they were unconvinced at first, as time kept passing, they couldn't exactly stake their entire professional lives on a petty grudge against Bai Liang, could they?

Still, the rookie paparazzi who show up every now and then do appear from time to time.

After all, Bai Liang has practically become the inner demon of the mainland paparazzi circle; there will always be young people dreaming of skyrocketing to fame, thinking that if they can take down the most uncanny one, they'll become famous in the circle overnight.

But tonight, there was no sign of them.

So all the scheming of those two girls was completely wasted.

Of course, Bai Liang definitely wouldn't say it out loud—cutting someone off when they're in high spirits is a very immoral thing to do.

As long as they're happy~

"How many more premieres do you have after this?"

"Just one left."

"Aren't you going to show your support at any of the Spring Festival films?" Sister Tian Tian asked, puzzled.

"By then our drama will already be more than halfway aired. There's no need."

Damn it!

Sister Tian Tian immediately became a bit dejected, wearing an expression tangled and pained—as if, because she was such a noob, she had wasted precious time.
