“Okay, there’s less than ten minutes left, get ready.”

Lu Wanwan hid behind, holding her breath.

After the door closed, the silence in the room made every cell in her body tense.

When she heard Bai Lingyun get up, her heartbeat intensified even more.

She couldn’t see anything, yet for some reason, she felt as if her target was getting closer bit by bit.

It was just her luck; had she not made that sound just now, everything would have been fine.

If discovered, she could only face it with thick skin and be honest. If worse came to worst, she’d just not shoot today and find another opportunity later.

The footsteps were unhurried and very soft, as if they were approaching.

Just when her heart seemed to clench in tandem.

“Mr. Bai…”

The door to the room was suddenly pushed open, and a woman’s voice said, “I’m the makeup artist, sorry for being a bit late.”

Bai Lingyun’s voice was laced with a smile, “Make-up artist? Do I need makeup?”

The other party seemed taken aback, then chuckled awkwardly, “It’s just a procedure, if Mr. Bai is ready, you can come to the live broadcast room.”

“Hmm.”

Again, the sound of the door closing, and this time the rest area became completely quiet.

Lu Wanwan let out a long sigh and emerged from behind the sofa.

She rubbed her arms, the spot under her shoulder had been caught and torn by a nail.

Hiding here was truly dangerous—as there wasn’t much space in the room for concealment.

Bai Lingyun’s assistant said he only had an hour at most. Would he leave directly after that, or would he come back?

Lu Wanwan had just reached the door when she heard someone outside say, “Lock this room up, don’t let anyone unrelated enter. Mr. Bai said he left something inside and we can’t take responsibility if it gets lost.”

That was just perfect! She was on the verge of losing her cool.

Then she heard the sound of the room being locked from the outside—she was actually locked in this room!

Lu Wanwan sent a text message to Xu Yuan, but obviously, Xu Yuan was also out of options.

Even if she could get the door opened, it would not be possible to walk out with a full-grown person in tow.

She could only wait for Bai Lingyun to come back and then have Xu Yuan come up with a plan to urge him to leave quickly. As long as the target left the rest area, no one would pay too much attention to her being there alone.

More than half an hour passed, and each minute and second felt like an ordeal for Lu Wanwan.

She was as restless as a spinning top, never stopping for a moment.

During that time, she laboriously moved the sofa a little to give herself a slightly more spacious spot to hide in.

“Mr. Bai!”

Xu Yuan’s voice, pitched high, suddenly came from outside the door.

“Mr. Bai, why did you come out so quickly?”

Lu Wanwan quickly gave Xu Yuan’s reminder a mental thumbs-up and hid again, hearing the lock being opened.

“Mr. Bai, we’ve been keeping the door locked, no one’s been inside. Your belongings should be safe,” a man’s voice said reassuringly.

“I see,” came the teasing response, casual and nonchalant.

Immediately after, with a ‘bang,’ the door was unceremoniously shut.

Everyone outside was left, quite literally, out in the cold.

Lu Wanwan was puzzled. She had nearly turned the room inside out earlier and hadn’t seen anything that might have belonged to Bai Lingyun.

Just as she was mulling over this, a cough, almost like a reminder, suddenly sounded.

In an instant, her mind went blank.

Turning her head, she saw Bai Lingyun standing at the entrance gap next to the sofa, his beautiful phoenix eyes narrowed in amusement, scrutinizing her intently.

Then the tall and lean figure slowly squatted down.

His lips curved like petals, the arch of his smile even more enchanting and seductive, his eyes dark, shining, and smiling, “Is the air good here?”
