Whispers to the Soul: Surrendering to Love Snare

Chapter 562 - 381: An Nan’s Birthday (20)

An Nan understood now. This man was digging up old grievances, and she had no choice but to go along with the topic, even trying to find words that he would like to hear.

"Um, um, um, I agree, I agree, I also don’t like foreigners. I can’t stand their smell, that’s why I prefer Eastern people, especially like you. And it’s the same at school..."

This time, before An Nan finished speaking, the man interrupted her coldly, "What’s going on with Zhan Qiyi?"

An Nan instantly shut up, and when she tried to explain, her voice became stammering, "Well, this, Qi Yi, uh, alright, it’s something else. Besides, can’t I have a friend in college?" She suddenly felt that this man was really petty.

With disdainful laughter flickering in his eyes, Lin Mubai continued coldly, "I think that’s not quite right. He clearly confessed his feelings to you."

"Uh, this."

"What, can’t you say anything?" Alright, he acknowledged that Zhan Qiyi was a thorn in his side, always vigilant, because he knew clearly that if he let his guard down, that man would immediately seize the opportunity.

An Nan now felt utterly embarrassed, she used to think only women dug up old grievances, but now she realized men could be even scarier when they did.

Slowly, An Nan started to get frustrated, so naturally, her temper flared up, "Alright, I’m a twenty-eight-year-old woman, it’d be odd if no one pursued me."

Lin Mubai was taken aback by her shout, still softly protesting, "But having too many pursuers is also strange, and what about your fiancé, what is that about?"

At this moment, An Nan was stunned, and simultaneously her mind cleared up. Perhaps all the prior conversation was just a lead-up, and this was the real focus.

Actually, talking about this fiancé made her headache, for a simple reason, she didn’t know either.

After a slight sigh, An Nan chose to honestly inform, "What I can tell you is that this so-called fiancé, I also don’t know what that’s about, I only heard about him once before, didn’t pay attention, and over the years, I’ve forgotten about it. I didn’t expect Xi Xilan to bring it up again today."

"Do you know his name?" Knowing it beforehand would allow him to investigate, better than being caught off guard without a clue.

An Nan shook her head, "I don’t know, they’re unrelated to me anyway, why should I know so much?"

After hearing this, Lin Mubai instantly felt relieved. He very much liked the phrase "unrelated person." Yes, that supposed fiancé was indeed an unrelated person, so there’s no need to worry about it.

Afterwards, An Nan spent a lot of effort persuading this man, and once she did, she felt mentally and physically exhausted, so she simply ignored the sulking man and headed straight to her room.

Lin Mubai was talking to her a moment ago, and then saw her turn and leave the next. Confused, he followed, but was stopped outside a closed door of a room, and no matter how much he knocked, there was no response from inside.

After his hands were almost sore from knocking, a cheerful voice sounded behind him, "Mr. Lin, no need to knock, even if you break your hand knocking, no one inside will hear a bit."
