However, the situation was different now, compared to those days. Thinking of the heartfelt conversation she had with her father, a sinister smile couldn’t help but emerge on Wang Zhilin’s face.
She intended not only to snatch Qin Jiran away but also to make Su Yanyi disappear from her world, never to overshadow her brilliance again!
At that moment, Su Yanyi, who had been listening by, could no longer bear it. She was not someone with a good temper, and she snatched the phone directly from Qin Jiran’s hand, saying bluntly, "If you know he’s supposed to be with me, stop contacting him constantly. Wang Zhilin, he is mine, and even if you die of jealousy, he will never be yours."
After speaking, Su Yanyi hung up the phone directly and then calmly handed it back to Qin Jiran, saying, "In the future, don’t talk to women like this. She has ill intentions and is a bad person."
Qin Jiran was somewhat confused. He found that his intelligence always seemed to drop to its lowest point when dealing with Su Yanyi because he could never understand why Su Yanyi always acted so abnormally.
Wang Zhilin harboring ill intentions? That made sense, and he believed it, but the emphasis on the latter part about her being a bad person just made him feel like laughing.
Qin Jiran pulled a wry smile and asked somewhat seriously, "Has she offended you?"
Because the Su family and the Wang Family were related by marriage, he had always thought that the two families had a good relationship, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so polite to Wang Zhilin.
In Qin Jiran’s view, his merely saying some courteous words was already being quite gracious towards Wang Zhilin, yet he was unaware that every time Wang Zhilin felt that Qin Jiran was too cold and neglectful towards her, it just wasn’t clear whether Wang Zhilin’s persistence towards Qin Jiran also contained an element of unwillingness to admit defeat.
"Most of those rumors online were spread by her," Su Yanyi had yet to tell Qin Jiran about this matter—not because she didn’t want to, but because she hadn’t found the right opportunity.
Her disgust for Wang Zhilin had already evolved into hatred. Cao Yawen and He Mingyang had already started the acquisition plan. Star King Entertainment, owned by the Wang Family, was her first target, and she would not let go of the Wang Family’s other assets either. She would take everything that belonged to the Wang Family into her hands, stripping the Wang Family of everything they possessed!
"Why would she do that?" Qin Jiran naturally wasn’t doubting Su Yanyi’s words, but he didn’t understand the reason behind it. He didn’t remember having offended Wang Zhilin, and those rumors were nothing more than a minor nuisance, hardly causing any significant effect.
"She probably wants to force me to deny our relationship. As for her other motives, you’d have to ask her yourself," Su Yanyi looked meaningfully at Qin Jiran. She wouldn’t admit that Wang Zhilin had her sights set on Qin Jiran, but that woman was still a threat that needed to be guarded against. At the very least, Qin Jiran needed to know that this woman was her enemy, someone not to be approached!
"I understand. I’ll be careful and won’t have any further contact with her," Qin Jiran said gravely and sincerely. The people Su Yanyi disliked, naturally, became the people he disliked. Su Yanyi’s enemies were naturally his enemies as well, especially since this woman seemed to be his enemy too.
Meanwhile, Qin Jiran couldn’t help but sigh silently once again—so it was indeed true!
It turned out that Su Yanyi had a purpose for making their marital relationship public. Now that he understood, he couldn’t tell if he felt more enlightened or disillusioned.
Su Yanyi became close to him because of his cooking skills, and she made their relationship public due to Wang Zhilin’s provocation. These two thoughts, verified by facts, made Qin Jiran clear about one thing but left him feeling even more lost and disappointed. Su Yanyi truly had no other intentions towards him.
