Lin Zhiyi excitedly turned around to look at the others.
Chu Yin curiously asked, "Zhiyi, what did you realize?"
"Watch me."
Lin Zhiyi didn’t explain directly but let down her hair.
Then she imitated Yang Jingwei’s exact demeanor.
Captain Xing’s eyes wandered between Lin Zhiyi and the screen, also looking a bit surprised.
"Although the features aren’t alike, for some reason your eyes are very similar, especially when looking at people, it’s exactly the same."
Lin Zhiyi nodded, turning to Gong Chen: "Do you all remember President Bai’s fetish? He particularly favors women who have similar expressions and looks. As to whom, we don’t know, but when Mrs. Bai dresses like this, her gaze is identical, which is why President Bai stares into her eyes."
Gong Chen’s slender fingers tapped his temple a few times.
"Indeed. Bai Zhengxian favors women like this, and Mrs. Bai’s expressions are deliberately shown to Bai Zhengxian."
Captain Xing frowned, a bit puzzled.
"Could it be this woman isn’t Mrs. Bai?"
"No, she is Mrs. Bai." Lin Zhiyi said helplessly, "When Bai Zhengxian took me away, as he looked at me, he seemed to be reminded of someone. He was constantly accusing me, even saying he was my husband."
"Mrs. Bai is right by his side, why look for another woman?" Captain Xing asked.
Isn’t this contradictory?
Both affectionate and heartless.
Lin Zhiyi was just about to suggest the possibility of another Mrs. Bai’s existence but was unexpectedly interrupted by Gong Chen.
"Because Mrs. Bai aged, and after she began undergoing cosmetic surgery, she no longer quite resembles her past self."
"So that’s how it is."
Captain Xing hadn’t anticipated there were so many things behind this.
Lin Zhiyi was momentarily stunned, looking at Gong Chen with some confusion.
It was rare for him to interrupt her train of thought like this.
But he had a point.
Just as Chu Yin tugged at Lin Zhiyi, she decided not to think further.
"Zhiyi, what do you think Mrs. Bai’s makeup was like when she met Second Master Bai?"
"Like what?"
Lin Zhiyi couldn’t see it.
Chu Yin clicked her tongue, "Like the plain makeup look that’s trending online—it looks like no makeup, but it is. Look at her eyes, don’t they seem like they’re on the verge of tears? That’s also makeup."
"Is that really possible?"
"If men can transform into women, what’s not possible?" Chu Yin analyzed, "I now understand why Captain Xing said Mrs. Bai and Second Master Bai’s relationship is unusual. Her makeup combined with her expressions of grievance and endurance, I’m all too familiar with it. In drama, nine out of ten female leads look at the male lead like this."
"Why?" Lin Zhiyi asked back.
"To evoke sympathy! You guys don’t feel sorry for her?"
Chu Yin looked towards Captain Xing, Gong Chen, and Sang Li.
The three acted surprisingly in sync.
Shaking their heads.
"No sympathy."
"Captain Xing, you’re not married, are you?" Chu Yin asked.
"Oh, how did you know?"
"Because you’re like them." Chu Yin pointed at Gong Chen and Sang Li.
Lin Zhiyi pressed her lips together tightly, not daring to laugh out loud.
Captain Xing touched his chin, "Dare not, dare not, how could I compare to the Third Young Master and Mr. Sang."
