After Transmigrating into a book, I Was Played By a Black Lotus

Chapter 85 New Futures

Bai Xiying bit her lip and nodded. Seeing the atmosphere improve, she hesitantly revealed a small truth: "It's not a lie that I'm afraid you'll leave. But honestly, I also had the idea of using this opportunity to expose all my secrets."

Lin Xingzhu: "Hmm?"

Bai Xiying pointed around them. "This room. Actually, I've noticed that you've been wanting to come in here a few times."

Caught off guard by her thoughts being exposed, Lin Xingzhu coughed awkwardly. "You've created such a mysterious room out of nowhere. It would be weird if I wasn't curious."

But she never imagined that the long-hidden secret of Bai Xiying would be this—creating such a private room.

And looking at the various things in the room, it wasn't hard to imagine how extravagant Bai Xiying must have been when she was alone here.

After a moment, Bai Xiying cautiously asked, "Aren't you disgusted by it?"

"Hmm?" Lin Xingzhu was slightly confused. "Disgusted by what?"

Seeing Bai Xiying's uneasy expression, Lin Xingzhu realized what she meant. She gently took her hand and said softly, "This is your personal preference. I respect it, and I won't judge you."

But then she thought about the days when Bai Xiying's demands were insatiable. She fell silent for a moment before continuing, "But in the future, we really need to exercise some restraint."

Bai Xiying: "......"

She tried to avoid thinking about the potentially bleak future and focused instead. "I'm worried you'll think I'm abnormal. To have created such a room full of things... isn't that a bit... crazy?"

Bai Xiying pressed her hand gently over Lin Xingzhu's mouth to stop her from explaining, and instead, began to analyze herself. "Just like we talked about before, I've always been me. So, in my past life, when those people tried to break my spine and use drugs to make me submit, I was always resisting. I never gave up."

"It's just that after it happened many times, my body was often in a state of perpetual discomfort. I used tools to release my emotions, and slowly, my body seemed to become addicted."

"And when I came back to this life, my body was normal. But soon, I realized I still needed those things. It turned out that not only was I physically addicted in my past life, but my mind had also unknowingly become unhealthy. So, I ended up creating this room again."

Having said all of this in one breath, Bai Xiying stared intently at Lin Xingzhu, as though expecting something. On closer inspection, though, it seemed like she was simply looking at her.
