"Sister Bingbing, imagine this: if you acted like me in front of someone you like, but they didn't feel anything at all."
She could even casually button up your clothes one by one. Under such circumstances, how can you expect me to believe that she has any special feelings for me?
Lin Xiaoxiao also wanted to believe that Tang Xue's feelings for her were love, but she wasn't a child, and she didn't want to deceive herself.
As for Bai Bing's statement that Tang Xue is an actress, she is able to control her facial expressions very well.
But actresses are human too; they have physiological reactions. Who wouldn't have any reaction when seeing the body of someone they like?
At least blushing would be the most normal reaction, but no, Tang Xue didn't blush at all from beginning to end.
"This..." Bai Bing really didn't know what to say. She wanted to tell Lin Xiaoxiao that just because others couldn't do something didn't mean Tang Xue couldn't do it.
But Lin Xiaoxiao's words do make sense. Who would be so open and honest when facing someone they like? Even if Tang Xue is an actress, she probably couldn't control her blushing.
Blushing is a physiological reaction; who would bother to practice controlling their blushing?
"Okay, Bingbing, don't worry, I'm fine. I was just a little sad, but I'm okay now."
Lin Xiaoxiao sniffed and rubbed her face. She had no intention of giving up on Tang Xue. At least until Tang Xue met someone she liked, she still wanted to try her best.
Looking at the girl opposite her with red and swollen eyes but still smiling, Bai Bing felt a little sorry for her. She originally wanted to tell Lin Xiaoxiao not to worry about the result of this test, but to go and confess her feelings first.
But seeing Lin Xiaoxiao like this, Bai Bing really couldn't bring herself to say it, especially since she remembered that when she was chatting with Tang Xue before, Tang Xue had personally said that she had someone she secretly loved.
As for who Tang Xue secretly admires, when Bai Bing saw the way Tang Xue looked at Lin Xiaoxiao, she felt that the person Tang Xue secretly admired was very likely Lin Xiaoxiao.
However, even though Lin Xiaoxiao had already tried to seduce the other party, Tang Xue still didn't react at all, which was indeed somewhat unexpected by Bai Bing.
Now that things have come to this point, Bai Bing really can't bring herself to tell Lin Xiaoxiao to confess her feelings.
Having been an agent for so many years, this was the first time Bai Bing had doubts about herself. But at the same time, a voice in her heart told her that she was not wrong, and that her doubts were very reasonable and correct.
Sighing, Bai Bing felt a little tired. She had thought that her help would help Lin Xiaoxiao win the heart of the beauty, but she never expected that it would make the other party so sad.
"Sister Bingbing, I'm really fine. Don't be fooled by how pitiful I look crying. Actually, after crying, I feel much better and even more motivated than before."
Lin Xiaoxiao's words were not entirely meant to comfort Bai Bing; they were her own thoughts. She admitted that she had indeed been very upset last night.
Towards the end, she felt like she was about to faint from crying, but after releasing these emotions, she felt much better.
Although Tang Xue is not interested in her body now, or even in her as a person, it doesn't mean that she won't be interested in her in the future.
"It's good that you think that way." Seeing that Lin Xiaoxiao had returned to her original state and was indeed full of fighting spirit.
Bai Bing stopped worrying so much. If Tang Xue's crush really was Lin Xiaoxiao, then she didn't believe that Tang Xue could resist Lin Xiaoxiao's temptations once or twice, let alone three or four times.
Thinking about what Lin Xiaoxiao had said about Tang Xue having a nosebleed, Bai Bing felt that Tang Xue's defenses weren't that strong after all.
"Keep it up, I believe in you. As for seducing Tang Xue, I think you were a little inexperienced the first time."
But next time, I believe you'll definitely want to see the scene you want to see.
Lin Xiaoxiao was speechless. What she did last night had already exhausted all her courage, and now she was being asked to do it again.
Lin Xiaoxiao said that she really couldn't do it. It was such a shameful and embarrassing thing, and she had already done it once. She didn't want to do it a second time.
"Okay, I'll take care of this. Go and apply a cold compress to your eyes again; they look kind of scary."
Bai Bing rubbed Lin Xiaoxiao's head, then went into the kitchen to clean up after tidying up the table.
Lin Xiaoxiao obediently took the ice pack and applied it to her eyes. Although she had already applied ice packs before, she knew without looking that she didn't look much better than before.
After Bai Bing finished cleaning up the kitchen and came out, she stared at Lin Xiaoxiao's eyes for an hour while she applied a cold compress before leaving.
After Bai Bing left, Lin Xiaoxiao looked in the mirror. Although her eyes still looked a little swollen, they were much better than before when they were swollen like walnuts.
At least for now, she looks presentable enough to go out and meet people.
Back in her bedroom, Lin Xiaoxiao threw herself onto the bed, picked up her phone, looked at the message Tang Xue had sent her, glanced at the time, thought for a moment, and then replied.
Lin Xiaoxiao: "Have you finished work? I'm already in bed."
After sending the message, Lin Xiaoxiao waited for a while but did not receive a reply, so she took a shower. When she came out, she still did not see Tang Xue's message, so she knew that the other party was probably still busy.
Lin Xiaoxiao yawned, and without bothering herself, she lay down on the bed. She hadn't slept at all last night.
Although I had already slept after returning, I was still not feeling particularly well. I lay in bed for a while and then drifted off to sleep.
Tang Xue only had time to check her phone after finishing work, and by the time she saw the message Lin Xiaoxiao sent her, it was already 11 p.m.
She sent a message but received no reply, so she knew that Lin Xiaoxiao must be asleep and gave up the idea of calling her.
She was a little worried when Lin Xiaoxiao had insomnia before, but now that she saw Lin Xiaoxiao could fall asleep quickly even without her company, she felt a little disappointed.
But more than anything, she was happy that Lin Xiaoxiao was no longer suffering from insomnia. Compared to Lin Xiaoxiao's health, her little disappointment was nothing.
After returning to the hotel and washing up, Tang Xue lay in bed, but she couldn't fall asleep for a long time, even though Lin Xiaoxiao had only been lying next to her for two nights.
Suddenly, she seemed unable to adapt to days without Lin Xiaoxiao's company; habits can be truly terrifying.
Tang Xue hugged the pillow that Lin Xiaoxiao had used to her chest, buried her head in it, and took a deep breath. Only when her nostrils were filled with that person's scent did Tang Xue smile contentedly.
Tang Xue is unaware that in the days to come, she will never have to worry about being alone again.
Just as Lin Xiaoxiao said, after what happened that night, she was not discouraged by the blow.
The setback even fueled her fighting spirit, and for a period of time afterward, Lin Xiaoxiao would frequently visit the film set.
She would even stay overnight at the hotel where Tang Xue was staying every few days, although during those stays she did not try to seduce Tang Xue as she had done before.
But every time after lying in bed, Linlin Xiaoxiao would pretend to be asleep, then reach out and either hug Tang Xue's arm to fall asleep, or hug Tang Xue's waist and rest her head on the other's body.
After a while, Lin Xiaoxiao was quite satisfied with the way she and Tang Xue got along.
Since Tang Xue considered her a good friend, she would use that friendship as a boundary and do whatever she wanted to Tang Xue, since they were both girls anyway.
As long as she doesn't confess her feelings and doesn't cross any lines, all her actions towards Tang Xue are within reasonable limits.
Days passed by like this. Lin Xiaoxiao was like a busy little bee. After finishing her work at the company, she would drive to the film set no matter how late it was.
For Lin Xiaoxiao, whenever she has time, she will stick to Tang Xue's side. As long as she keeps a close enough eye on Tang Xue, Tang Xue will never have the chance to fall in love with someone else.
Life was peaceful and uneventful, and Lin Xiaoxiao was happy every day. Tang Xue, who was constantly bothered by Lin Xiaoxiao, was naturally happy as well.
At first, Tang Xue was actually quite tormented because every time Lin Xiaoxiao fell asleep, she would pounce on her and hug her tightly.
The body temperature that could be felt even through the clothes, the softness that could be felt even through the clothes, was driving Tang Xue crazy.
But as time went on, Tang Xue gradually adapted. Of course, she only adapted to the part where Lin Xiaoxiao had to hold her to sleep every night.
As for the impulses and desires that came from the depths of her heart, to be honest, Tang Xue didn't have any better way to deal with them.
So every time Lin Xiaoxiao wanted to stay at the hotel, it was a bittersweet experience for Tang Xue.
Lin Xiaoxiao was unaware of all of this; all she knew was that her relationship with Tang Xue was growing closer.
This made her very happy and she enjoyed it. Although her current relationship had not made any progress, she could now hold Tang Xue's hand without any hesitation.
He could hold Tang Xue and fall asleep without any worries, without fearing that his feelings would be exposed.
The happy days continued until Tang Xue's drama was almost finished filming, when something happened that was neither too big nor too small.
At least for Lin Xiaoxiao, this matter was not particularly important. Although the development of events was both expected and unexpected, she was not particularly surprised.
"President Lin's methods are truly astonishing." Looking at the man sitting opposite her, Lin Xiaoxiao picked up her coffee and took a sip.
"Miss Lin is too kind. How could my methods possibly catch your eye?" Lin Chuze smiled politely, without the slightest hint of aggression.
Lin Xiaoxiao raised her eyelids. Don't be fooled by the seemingly harmless appearance of the man opposite her. Once you know what he has done, you'll know how terrifying he is.
After their last meeting, Lin Chuze said that he wanted to bring down Tianyu Real Estate. At that time, Lin Xiaoxiao didn't really take it too seriously.
Because she always felt that Lin Chuze must have been angered by what she said at that time, which is why he had the idea of ruining Tianyu Real Estate.
Perhaps he won't do that after he calms down, after all, Tianyu Real Estate can be said to have been built up by Lin Chuze.
She really couldn't believe that the other party would actually be willing to ruin the company she had invested so much effort and energy in building.
But now Lin Xiaoxiao believes it, after all, the other party has already stood in front of her and announced their results.
Not to mention, the news of Tianyu Real Estate's bankruptcy had already spread like wildfire, but because Lin Xiaoxiao hadn't paid attention, she only found out when Lin Chuze approached her.
It was through this incident that Lin Xiaoxiao realized how terrifying this man was.
"How come a man as decisive and ruthless as me met such a tragic end in the original story? With Lin Yu's IQ, how did he manage to bring him down?"
[It's probably because of the forced reduction in intelligence; after all, the male lead has the protagonist's halo.]
Lin Xiaoxiao: "...Okay, I really can't refute that point, but after this series of events, doesn't it prove that the male lead's protagonist aura has been weakened?"
Yes, because of the host's existence, many things have changed, so the male lead's protagonist aura is no longer effective.
099 was still a little excited when she said these words. The male lead's protagonist aura has been weakened, which means that it will be difficult for him and the female lead to have any further contact.
At least that so-called powerful plot can no longer have any impact on Tang Xue, the female lead.
"Miss Lin, do you still remember what you promised me before?" Lin Chuze put down his coffee cup, sat up straight, and looked at Lin Xiaoxiao with a serious expression.
"Miss Lin previously said she would give me a chance to join the Lin Group. I wonder if that promise still stands?"
In fact, Lin Chuze was a little nervous and worried. He had ruined Tianyu Real Estate and had completely broken ties with his father.
Therefore, his reputation in the industry is very bad now, because some things simply cannot be hidden, so finding a new job is not an easy task for him.
Because every company would be wary after learning what he had done, Lin Chuze asked Lin Xiaoxiao for a promise before deciding to bring down Tianyu Real Estate.
Chapter 64
==================
After not hearing Lin Xiaoxiao's response for a long time, Lin Chuze curled his fingers on his knees. "Miss Lin, are you worried that I might do something detrimental to the Lin Group?"
"Huh?" Lin Xiaoxiao was taken aback. "Why do you say that, Mr. Lin?"
Lin Xiaoxiao was talking to 099 and didn't really notice what Lin Chuze was saying.
Although she knew it was very impolite to daydream while talking to someone, she couldn't help it just now.
"Miss Lin, please stop calling me President Lin." Lin Chuze gave a self-deprecating smile. "I'm a stray dog now."
Looking at the self-deprecating smile on the man's face, Lin Xiaoxiao was silent for a moment. Lin Chuze's reputation in the industry was now ruined.
For many companies, Lin Chuze is like a rat crossing the street; while he's not quite universally hated, he's not far off.
