Chapter 257 An Unexpected Encounter Along the Way



He was on his way to find Lin Xiaoxue, but unexpectedly he found Lin Taozi on the way, so he brought her along. Bai Junbai was about to ask Song Yuheng what was going on when he felt a tightness on his arm. Two soft little arms wrapped around him without warning.

"Third sister, what are you doing here? Are you filming here?" Lin Taozi's world was simple; she had never been to a gathering with anyone in pairs, let alone played any adult games.

Seeing that all these people were handsome men and beautiful women, her first thought was that they were filming here. But why didn't she see the cameramen or any of the staff? Could it be that the director and the others were inside?

Feeling puzzled and uneasy about the place, and noticing the strange atmosphere, Lin Taozi clung tightly to someone's arm. No matter what happened, sticking close to Uncle Bai was always the right thing to do.

"It's not filming, it's a private gathering of rich kids, and I'm just a female companion who was brought along." Lin Xiaoxue saw that her younger sister was clueless and didn't want her to be kept in the dark, so she told the truth. Anyway, Bai Junbai would protect her and wouldn't let anything happen to her.

By the way, how did Peach end up with Bai Junbai, and even brought him here? Could it be...? "Peach, to be honest, how did you end up here with Bai Junbai?"

"I hitched a ride with him. He was in a hurry to get here, so I came with him first," Lin Taozi replied honestly.

"Oh, I see. Then let's hurry back." As if she had thought of something, Lin Xiaoxue stepped forward, grabbed Lin Taozi, and was about to leave.

“Since Junbai is here, let’s have a meal before you leave. The food will be served soon,” Eisen suddenly said.

"Have you eaten?" This question was asked of Lin Taozi.

Lin Taozi shook her head honestly, "I didn't eat. I only had a small bread roll for lunch, and now my stomach is a little upset from hunger." She was just telling the truth.

Then Bai Junbai decided to stay and have a meal before leaving.

Lin Xiaoxue: "..." Could Taozi be any more stupid?

Well, Bai Junbai's status speaks for itself, these idiots probably won't dare to cause any more trouble. She'll just have a good meal first.

Lin Taozi clung tightly to Bai Junbai's arm, as if afraid that someone would sell her if she let go. Lin Xiaoxue tugged at her clothes several times, gesturing for her to sit with her, but Lin Taozi ignored her.

Having been sisters with Lin Xiaoxue for so many years, she never said it, but she always believed that her third sister was unreliable and she dared not count on her in critical moments.

"Hey, Mr. Bai, why isn't your female companion wearing shoes?" It was too dark outside for anyone to notice, but once inside, someone noticed that Lin Taozi was barefoot.

Lin Taozi was just too clingy, sticking tightly to someone's side. This was something that had never happened before. Bai Junbai didn't like being touched by others. Whenever he brought a female companion, she would only obediently follow him to his side and wouldn't dare to brazenly hug his arm.

Lin Taozi not only clung to his arm, but almost hung on him, jogging to keep up with him while asking him questions from time to time. She wasn't afraid of him at all. Bai Junbai, with a cold expression, didn't shake her off or get angry.

The truth is, Bai Junbai didn't mean to not want to shake her off; it was just that Lin Taozi was too shameless. She held onto his arm tightly with her small hands, making it impossible for him to shake her off. If he used too much force, he would definitely knock her down, but it really didn't come to that.

Seeing her crying so miserably just now, Bai Junbai hadn't had a chance to ask her what had happened. In short, he felt a rare pang of sympathy and thought that she was in a vulnerable state after being provoked. He felt that if he didn't let her get close, she would definitely feel insecure and might burst into tears again. In order to keep his ears quiet, he could only tolerate her overreaching behavior and let her put her arm around him.

Soon, a dozen people sat around a huge round table, and then the dishes began to be served. The servants, one by one, were well-trained and brought the dishes up before leaving.

Soon Lin Taozi discovered that the food was served on large plates for each person, and each portion was pre-portioned, which was quite plentiful. However, she felt that something was missing. But since she was on someone else's turf, she shouldn't be picky. She should just feed them first.

"Aww..." Lin Taozi picked up her fork and forcefully forked a piece of steak into her mouth. She was too hungry and tired from walking so much. After observing that no one was paying attention to her, she decided not to pretend to be polite and cut the steak into small pieces. Eating big chunks of meat was much more satisfying.

"puff"

When Lin Taozi was halfway through her meal, someone suddenly couldn't help but laugh out loud. She subconsciously looked up and found that everyone at the table had stopped eating and were watching her struggle to tear at her steak.

What's so interesting about it? Haven't you ever watched someone eat before?

"You don't know how to use a knife and fork?" Bai Junbai held back for a while, his forehead twitched, and finally he almost gritted his teeth as he asked her.

"It's not that I can't, I'm just too hungry. I walked too much just now, and my feet hurt. I need to replenish my energy first." Lin Taozi said innocently. What's the big deal? These people can just pretend I don't exist.

"Eisen, have your servant find a pair of shoes for the young lady beside me. Also, this food probably won't be enough for her, so have the kitchen prepare another portion." Bai Junbai didn't make a big deal out of consideration for her young age, but his expression was extremely unpleasant.

"Yes, yes, please have the kitchen make some hot soup. I'm thirsty, but I don't want to drink plain water. It would be best if you could stew a chicken." Lin Taozi added without any hesitation.

"Peach, what happened to you?" Lin Xiaoxue took a closer look at her feet and noticed that there seemed to be some bloodstains on them.

She was startled by a stray cat on the road, tripped and scraped her skin, but luckily she didn't sprain her ankle, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to walk so far.

"I accepted a commercial performance gig at a shopping mall in the suburbs. A friend who was also going to perform offered to give me a ride. I thought I could save on taxi fare, so I got into her car. But I didn't expect she wasn't really going to give me a ride. She dropped me off halfway through the journey..."

"You're not short of money, why are you taking on commercial performances? You've become quite capable, does your eldest sister know about this?" Lin Xiaoxue laughed in exasperation. This fourth sister sometimes really had a strange way of thinking. Everyone doted on her and gave her a lot of pocket money every month, but she always thought about earning her own money.

"I don't know, I was wrong." Lin Taozi pouted. She felt wronged. She felt that she was not capable enough, so she had to work harder to earn money in order to catch up with her three older sisters. Who knew that she could never achieve anything.

Just as Lin Xiazhu was mentioned, Lin Xiazhu called. Lin Xiaoxue quickly answered, "Hello, big sister."

"Your brother-in-law asked his second uncle to go and get you out. How are things on your end?" Lin Xiazhu held Xiao Moxun, who still refused to sleep. The little darling wouldn't sleep and insisted on being held by her. Now that Xiao Moxun is three months old, he can recognize people. At night, he must be held by his mother, otherwise he will cry and fuss.

Sure enough, she couldn't put him down even while making a phone call. The little guy kept waving his chubby little hands, as if he wanted to snatch the phone from his mother's hand to play with.

"Big sister, I'm fine, I'm alright," Lin Xiaoxue quickly replied, then glanced at the person next to her and said, "Big sister, Taozi is with me, she's been framed." Then she told her what had happened.
