Chapter 154 - Intimate
Nan Zhi’s long eyelashes trembled. Her brain seemed to have short-circuited and she did not have any other reaction apart from having complete blankness in her mind. It was almost as though his kiss had sucked away her soul.
The force of him pressing against her was somewhat strong as he forced himself tightly on her lips. It was clearly a kiss, yet it did not seem like one at the same time.
His gaze was deep and dark. It was a type of intense black that was so dark that it seemed like it could absorb everything in the world.
Nan Zhi finally realized what he was doing after a few seconds. Her small hands fell on his shoulders and pushed him, hard. At the same time, her face became completely red from holding in her breath. “Why are you like this? There are so many people watching.”
The man’s well-defined handsome face was very close to her’s. He raised his handsome straight brows slightly. “Just let them watch. What are you afraid of?”
Nan Zhi was not as thick-skinned as he was. Furrowing her eyebrows, she looked at his deep black eyes. “You may not be afraid, but I am.”
Mu Sihan’s Adam’s apple bobbed as he stared at her bright red lips and beautiful face. The woman was one of a kind. With one finger, he lifted her chin and resumed his arrogant manner. “Eat with me later.”
Nan Zhi really could not read this wild and handsome man in front of her. His temper was unpredictable. When he was angry, it was as though he was possessed by the God of Death, yet, here was was, childish and stubborn like an innocent child.
Mu Sihan… he was like a mystery that could not be solved.
Nan Zhi did not dare to say no. It was likely he would continue to kiss her for a very long time if she dared to say no.
He was the epitome of overbearing and stubborn.
Loosening his hold on Nan Zhi, Mu Sihan turned to look at Nan Yao and her little clique. In comparison to the tolerant expression he had when facing Nan Zhi, the one aimed towards Nan Yao was unforgiving and malicious.
Zhuang Jingjing and Yu Xiaoting swallowed in fear, it felt like a sharp sword was millimeters from cutting their throats when Mu Sihan’s cold gaze landed on them.
President Zhou’s family had become bankrupt at the drop of a hat, merely because he wanted them to be. If this man said the word, there was no way they could survive in Ning City.
Zhuang Jingjing and Yu Xiaoting did not dare to hesitate any longer. Disregarding Nan Yao’s obvious reluctance, they hurriedly stood up and bowed deeply towards Nan Zhi in apology.
“I’m sorry. I’m sorry…”
“I didn’t mean to criticize Nan Zhi. I’m sorry. Please forgive us!”
Beside the pair, Nan Yao stood stubbornly with pitiful and angry tears that flowed out of her eyes. Her hands were both in fists and her lips were pursued into a petulant line. She did not want to apologize to Nan Zhi at all. Why should she apologize?
The head of the broadcasting company hurried over and urged her to apologize so that everything would be settled. If not, even he would not be able to help her.
At his insistence, Nan Yao’s face paled completely and she sucked in a cold breath. Standing up in a unwilling manner, she looked defiant under Mu Sihan’s cold and sharp gaze as she muttered to Nan Zhi. “I’m sorry.”
Originally, she wanted to see Nan Zhi make a fool out of herself today. If everything happened according to her plans, Nan Zhi would have walked out of the venue in embarrassment!
However, in the end…
Hatred and jealousy filled Nan Yao and red-hot anger coursed through her veins. She swore that she would definitely find a way to get back at that b*tch for the humiliation she had suffered today!
…
The sponsors meeting continued.
Nan Zhi returned backstage after Mu Sihan left the stage. Xia Xi hugged Nan Zhi’s arm as she cried and laughed in agitation.
“Sister Zhi, I can’t believe it! So all this time, Young Master Mu was your big backer. You hid it too well!” Xia Xi sniffled. Her nose was red from crying and her cheeks were flushed pink. She was even happier than Nan Zhi at the thought of Young Master Mu being Nan Zhi’s financier, instead of that Lin Wanyue’s.
Nan Zhi did not have the chance to say anything, when the head of the broadcasting company suddenly walked over and told her, “Nan Zhi, the guest for the first episode of Delicacy has been decided.”
Nan Zhi was ready to tell the head that she had already invited Ji Chuan. However, the head’s next words were someone Nan Zhi did not expect. “The masked singer, Yannis, will be with us as the guest for Delicacy’s first episode. Not only that, he also promised to take of his mask as well.”
“Oh my god, how can that be?” XIa Xi exclaimed in disbelief. “So many well-known broadcasting companies in the world couldn’t invite Yannis to their shows, even if with their connections and resources. Did our show really manage to invite him? And not to mention… He’ll also take off his mask?! Oh my god, I can only imagine how popular our show will get!”
The head of the broadcasting company was also very excited. In the beginning, he did not have any hopes for Delicacy . They were slated to be moved to the late night slot with their poor ratings. He had never expected for the sponsors meeting this year to give him so many surprises!
