Chapter 59.1 “Do you want me to carry you in?”

Although the sword went astray, in the end Bai Duanduan really did add Tang Li’s WeChat without any deliberate traces, as she herself said. And for her own initiative to ask for contact information, Tang Li did not suspect Bai Duanduan at all.

Bai Duanduan, as usual, hung her out to dry for half a day, plus after adding WeChat, she did not take the initiative, quietly sitting and waiting for the other party to automatically take the bait.

A long time later, Tang Li could no longer resist and took the initiative to contact Bai Duanduan to ask about the purchase channels of the bags. Bai Duanduan continued to take things in stride, communicating with her without being overly enthusiastic or cold, and “accidentally” showing Tang Li what bags she owned. In order to shock the other party into submission, Bai Duanduan even commandeered all of Ms Meng Xin’s collection series as well, grouping them in a visible and low-key luxury to show off her dressing and collection cabinets.

The series of actions that Bai Duanduan took were as fierce as a tiger, and she finally established her “rich white woman” persona. Tang Li was so convinced of her identity that she not only didn’t mind Bai Duanduan’s nonchalant attitude, but was even more enthusiastic about her, and tried several times to invite Bai Duanduan to her little offline sisterhood party.

Now that she had invited the mysterious “Xiao Rui” from the upper class, she naturally got a glow on her face as well.

Almost as soon as she hung up the phone with the other party, Tang Li couldn’t help bragging to her sisterhood.

“I’ve hooked up with that rich white girl who was so hot at Tiffany’s last private party! She’s coming to our party tomorrow night!”

“I’m telling you, she’s definitely a super rich person, and probably has a very powerful family background, so no matter how much I inquire what her name is, she won’t say it, but only let me call her Xiao Rui. I think she’s the kind of person who can be guessed by others just by informing them of her surname, and she’s definitely from a powerful family in City A. Such rich and powerful people are… It is understandable that they are wary, I will bring her along in the future, everyone just call her Xiao Rui.”

It’s easy to have the illusion that when you know one or two people with a particularly powerful or deep background, you feel as if you’ve ascended to the top of the world and are part of the same personal circle. 

Tang Li was very proud of getting acquainted with “Xiao Rui” gradually, “I’ll show you her wardrobe and her bags. She has almost all the limited editions on the market! Anyway, she will be my friend from now on, if you have any bags you want to buy that you don’t have access to, I can ask Xiao Rui for you when the time comes…..”

Because of her high-profile appearance at the private party that day, Tang Li’s little sisters, too, were quite unforgettable of Bai Duanduan. For a while, everyone in this vapid group of internet celebrity sisters, who were falsely bonded together by buying and taking selfies with each other, had a little something in mind.

On the surface, however, there was naturally still harmony –

“Pear you’re so good too!”

“Yes, we’ve said that our Pear is socially skilled and super cute, can’t she hook up with all kinds of people?”

“Then we’ll hold onto Pear’s thighs when we buy limited edition bags in the future, Pear will ask Xiao Rui for us.”

_____________

Bai Duanduan didn’t know that her casual promise had already created a small ripple in Tang Li’s internet celebrity sister group. She had a busy day every day, and after gradually becoming familiar with Sheng Lin’s rhythm, her caseload began to steadily improve, and she began to work overtime on her own without even being asked to do so by Ji Lin.

Although a labor arbitration case can be filed for investigation and evidence, it cannot be delayed indefinitely and must be concluded within 45 days of the case being filed and accepted.

Now that she had gained Tang Li’s trust, Bai Duanduan also knew that it was time to speed up the pace.

On the day of the appointment, after reporting her itinerary to Ji Lin, she was ready to go to it alone.

“Anyway, it’s a dinner date at six o’clock at Baidaihui, I’ll be carrying a recorder throughout to try to gather as much information as possible, but since this is my first time attending one of their group events, it’s unlikely that I’ll be able to ask too many in-depth questions, otherwise I’ll raise suspicions instead, so you shouldn’t get your hopes up for a successful first deposition.”

However, Ji Lin stopped her, and he frowned slightly, “Baidaihui? The name sounds familiar.”

Bai Duanduan nodded, “Yes, it’s the bar that doesn’t cost less than five thousand per capita once you go in, very famous, on Jinxi Road.”

This is a famous club in City A. It is said to be a VIP membership system, similar to a high class club, where new members must be recommended by two senior members of at least two years. It was said that many celebrities and even celebrities in A City were members, so many netizens liked to go to this bar, after all, if they were lucky, they could even meet celebrities and if they’re in a good mood, you can even take a photo together, which can be put on the internet and bring a wave of heat.

But since we’re talking about this topic, Bai Duanduan couldn’t help but mention it, “Let me ask, can I be reimbursed for my spending tonight?”

“Yes.”

Bai Duanduan was only asking as a test, but she didn’t expect Ji Lin to agree without even thinking about it. She had prepared a bunch of arguments in her mind to convince Ji Lin, but they were all useless now. As if two actors were playing against each other, Bai Duanduan finished reading out her lines, but Ji Lin did not follow the script, so she could only stare at Ji Lin, not knowing what she should say next.

It was Ji Lin who pursed his lips and opened his mouth, he added, his tone a little unnatural, “You don’t need to save money, everything is for investigation and evidence collection, but don’t drink alcohol. If you drink alcohol, you won’t be reimbursed.”
