Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 1449: Chapter 1463: Even More Subtle

”Miss An?”

An Ran looked at the visitor, slender and tall, with a face of aloof indifference. The white dress made her look even more like elegance personified. Looking closely at her eyes and brows, An Ran found something familiar, but couldn’t recall where she had seen her before.

Hearing the other’s inquiry, An Ran nodded, ”I am.”

”Come with me,” after An Ran’s confirmation, the other grabbed her hand without a second thought and pulled her up.

An Ran instinctively wanted to break free from the other’s grip, ”Wait, who are you? Where are you taking me?”

The person halted and looked toward Luo Jingjing, and An Ran’s gaze followed to the woman beside her.

Although Luo Jingjing didn’t know why Li Zi was looking for An Ran, she knew Li Zi’s character.

In the company, it was known she wasn’t popular with her manager. In such places, people tend to avoid those without favor; some even mocked her in front of Yin Qianxue’s people to show whose side they were on. Only Li Zi could interact with her calmly.

It’s just that she was cold and not easy to get close to.

Seeing the two look at her, Luo Jingjing understood Li Zi wanted her to help speak for her, so she introduced her to An Ran, ”She’s also an artist from our company, Li Zi.”

Li Zi? An Ran finally remembered where she had seen her before. She recalled during the last Imperial City event; this person was called by Sun Wangbei and was later taken away by Jing Xiangyang, never to return.

”Can we go now?” Li Zi raised an eyebrow and asked, not waiting for An Ran’s answer, dragging her out of the banquet hall, heading directly to the bathroom around the corner.

Entering the bathroom, Li Zi unceremoniously pulled her into one of the stalls.

An Ran: ”...”

Last time in the Imperial City, as foolish as she may be, she noticed the delicate relationship between this woman and Doctor Jing. At that time, she even gossiped with Mu Xingfeng about whether this woman was one of Doctor Jing’s old flames.

Judging by Doctor Jing’s reaction then, it seemed this woman had done something to wrong Doctor Jing. Could she have been mistaken? Did Li Zi betray Doctor Jing not by finding a new boyfriend but by finding a girlfriend?

”You brought me...” Before An Ran could ask what they were doing here, the other gave her a silent glance and then pointed to the compartment next door.

It was then that An Ran noticed muffled sounds coming intermittently from the adjacent stall—those ambiguous sounds of a woman in both pain and pleasure mixed with some kind of impact noise. An Ran wasn’t some naive girl without experience, so she naturally knew what was happening in the neighboring stall.

An Ran looked at Li Zi with even more subtle eyes.

Li Zi probably didn’t expect the situation next door either, her face flashed with awkwardness, and in a voice only the two could hear, she explained, ”I just overheard that woman planning to use a waiter against Young Master Sun.”

That’s why she sought An Ran. Unexpectedly, the two were involved in such a transaction. It seemed that the waiter had indeed been persuaded by that woman.

”What woman? If it’s against Young Master Sun, you could directly tell Sun Wangbei,” What did pulling her here accomplish?

Was it just to hear how intense their battle was?

”An Sijia,” Li Zi said lightly and then pushed the door open, leaving the stall.

An Ran understood now. Li Zi and An Sijia were both artists under Jiawen Entertainment. Within that circle, such things were commonplace. Many artists would stop at nothing to advance themselves.
