Whispers to the Soul: Surrendering to Love Snare

Chapter 1114 - 1133: Toying with Zhang Ziyin (2)

Hearing this, Zhang Ziyin’s brows furrowed tighter and tighter. "Man? What man? What kind of status?"

"I don’t know what status the other party has, but the call was personally ordered from above, and I even got scolded. He must be someone big." Otherwise he would never have let them go so easily, but since the call came from Central, he had no choice but to take it seriously. He’d also been racking his brain over that Man’s identity—obviously a mixed‑race guy, yet in S City he’d never seen such a person. So who on earth could it be?

Thinking of this, he let his gaze sweep around the surroundings. Suddenly his eyes flew wide, and he pointed somewhere, stammering, "That one, that’s the Man."

Hearing him, Zhang Ziyin quickly followed the direction of his finger. Her heart was briefly stunned by the sight, but the moment she thought of Lin Mubai, that ripple of amazement in her chest instantly flattened out.

That was indeed a very outstanding Man, but compared to Lin Mubai, he was still a bit lacking. Yet when she saw that most gorgeous mixed‑race Man looking so gently at the woman beside him, a strong surge of jealousy rose up in her heart again.

Why is it that all the excellent men fall for that woman? What’s so great about that woman anyway? She’s not pretty—could it really just be because she’s rich? It’s not like she’s short of money either! If Lin Mubai was willing to marry her, she could absolutely talk to her Dad and have the whole company given to him.

The more she thought about it, the more twisted Zhang Ziyin’s expression became. In the end, her gaze met An Nan’s in midair, and neither of them showed the slightest sign of backing down.

After a moment, An Nan kept staring at the figure in the distance while nudging the person next to her with her elbow. "Xinxi, the person you’ve been waiting for is here. What are you planning to do?"

The latter just shrugged casually, looking completely unconcerned. "What am I planning to do? I’m going to let that woman see me strolling right out of here, all high and mighty. Best case, she gets so mad she drops dead."

Everyone around them could only shake their heads helplessly at her willful declaration.

Lan Xinru let out another yawn, her calm voice drifting into everyone’s ears. "She’s already pissed off now. Can we find somewhere to sleep yet?"

The night before she came to S City, she’d barely slept because of a surgical plan. Then she’d been tossing around all last night again. Right now she was so tired her eyes could barely stay open.

Echoing her words was Xi Yu, who was wearing a mask. Her situation was more or less the same as Lan Xinru’s, except she wasn’t being tormented by work, but by a certain Man. Every single time she had to travel for work, that Man would run her ragged. The reason was actually very simple—she just had to think about it a little to know: he simply couldn’t bear to let her go.

Yet such a simple sentence was something that tsundere Man just couldn’t say out loud, so every time he could only use actions to express the true feelings in his heart.

She was perfectly clear about this in her heart, but she was also filled with helplessness. She really did want to spend more time with him, but at the same time she couldn’t bear to give up her career. When she first entered the entertainment industry, maybe it was just with a "let’s see how it goes" attitude, but now she truly loved this line of work and even wanted to do more and do better. But deep down, she’d already drawn a line for herself: once she stood in that particular position, she would withdraw from the entertainment industry.
