Whispers of Humanity: Shen Yuyan

In the bathroom.

Warm water flowed over the shapely body, and nitrogen vapor blurred the mirror surface.

Annie Kate stands under the showerhead, using makeup remover to wash away the marks left by Yi Yi oil-based marker—[Tang Song's Possession].

God knows, he not only wrote on his own legs, but he also wanted to write on other places. What a pervert!

I straightened up and unconsciously touched the skin behind me with my fingertips.

She hissed and gasped, bracing herself against the tiled wall with one hand, letting the hot water wash over her flushed skin as she recalled the scenes in the bedroom.

However, a dangerous and alluring smile curved at the corners of her lips.

"You really know how to leave a mark," she murmured.

His voice carried a hint of husky pleasure.

Tang Song was extremely rough with her today, his voice so loud it even drowned out the pattering rain outside the window.

It must be said that this feeling of being suppressed gave her an unprecedented sense of excitement.

The domineering and powerful nature of the Tang Song was like a hallucinogenic drug, both terrifying and addictive to her.

This pain awakened a deep-seated desire for conquest within her, much like the exhilarating feeling of her heart racing when her car was being chased by traffic police years ago.

Every time she was suppressed by him, her rebellious spirit grew more and more restless, and she fantasized about one day turning the tables and completely conquering him.

It makes one's blood boil.

Tang Song was the man she had met over the years who aroused the most desire to conquer.

She had tried to flirt with him before, but he didn't respond at all.

The reason I acquired the adult film company was because I knew about his personality change and wanted to test him.

If Tang Song were to truly succumb to her body, it would only make her look down on him and lose that sense of accomplishment.

He was more charming than Annie had expected.

Water droplets slid down the taut waistline, splashing tiny droplets on the tiles.

The blonde beauty in the mirror suddenly curled her red lips into a smile, like a feline showing off its fangs.

"Next time—" she chuckled softly into the mist, "I'll make you beg."

This is just the beginning. Physical disadvantage doesn't mean defeat. When she truly gets to work on his body, she'll make Fang Ming who's really in control.

The sudden vibration of Yi Yi Mobile Phone abruptly interrupted her reverie.

Upon seeing the name "Mira" on the screen, Annie's blue eyes widened instantly, and she quickly grabbed her Mobile Phone.

"Hey, sweetheart." She turned off the shower, her wet hair clinging to her snow-white shoulders, her tone relaxed and casual. "Calling at this hour, is it to hear my report on Jingwu Capital's quarterly financial report?"

Today is the first workday after the holiday, and this time of day happens to be Mira's workday.

Her visit to Huaxia was not purely for leisure; it also involved important work for Jingwu Capital in the fourth quarter.

Next, she will head to the Imperial Capital.

On the other end of the phone, Secretary Jin's voice was cold yet magnetic. "Tang Song is staying with you now, right?"

Annie sighed innocently. "Yeah, you caught me, Mira. Song is indeed staying here, but to be honest, I wanted to tell you, but I was afraid you'd think I was invading your 'territory.'"

"Is that so?"

"Well, come on, darling." Annie deliberately drew out her words, "Who doesn't know how possessive you are of him?"

"Heh." The rhythmic tapping of a pen on the table came from the other end of the phone, crisp and calm. "You think I don't know what you're thinking?"

"Oh! Honey! I didn't do anything to him, it was him, you know, he was like a wild beast out of control."

"What do you think he looks like?!" The sound of the pen tapping stopped abruptly.

Annie quickly corrected herself, pressing her tongue against the roof of her mouth to utter a praising American syllable. "Like a god, like Apollo, like a muse that can drive everyone crazy."

There was a pause on the other end of the phone, then the voice continued, "Annie, I need you to do something for me right away."

"What's up?"

"Ensure that no footage of Tang Song filming in ' Parallel Dawn ' is leaked. His face is not allowed to appear in any stills, promotional materials, or the final cut! Furthermore, his rumored relationship with Su Yu is strictly prohibited from appearing in public discourse!"

"Oh, that's too easy!" Annie whistled, her blonde hair glistening in the warm light. "Is it because Song's cameo scenes were too intimate? I heard Mo mention it; he seemed to be playing a first love boyfriend, which was quite romantic."

"Annie!" Secretary Jin interrupted her, her tone clearly showing impatience.

"Okay, okay." She raised her hands in surrender. "Don't worry, darling, I'll teach that actress a lesson!"

As a woman who loves challenges and seeks excitement, she immediately guessed the cause and effect and was eager to try it out.

"No need! When you come to the Imperial Capital next week, I have other things for you to do."

"What is it?" Annie's curiosity was completely piqued, and she couldn't wait to ask.

"The first thing is to cooperate with Zheng Qiudong in the acquisition of London's SCG (Stonebridge Consulting)."

"Oh, well, he's still as restless as ever, but I can understand." Annie shrugged.

She quite admired Zheng Qiudong, that ambitious man.

It was also anticipated that the other party would break out of the Asia-Pacific and officially enter the European and American markets, launching an attack on the "Big Four Consulting firms.

"Also, could you please help me make in-depth contact with a few people in Yancheng? There are some things I'm not comfortable doing myself." Secretary Jin directly named a few people. "Tian Jing from Tang Yi Precision, Lin Mu Xue from Rongliu Capital, Wen Ruan from Xingyun International Group."

"Okay, I love this job!" Annie perked up instantly, her tone slightly teasing. "I've met Wen Ruan, and I'm very interested in her."

"Annie!" Secretary Jin's voice suddenly turned stern, carrying a strong warning. "You should know about her relationship with Tang Song. Don't mess with her!"

"Relax, Mira! You've misunderstood me. Even if I were to provoke someone, it would only be Tang Song himself. After all, he's the only one worthy of my complete devotion." Annie tentatively added, "Haha, but if I really did that, would you kill me?"

"Hehe, you can give it a try. Maybe I wouldn't mind?"

The Dudu tone of the phone being hung up came from the receiver.

Annie stood frozen in place, her heart pounding uncontrollably, a dangerous yet excited glint in her blue eyes.

She didn't know whether Kim's words were a threat or a license.

Perhaps... she could give it a try?

She simply couldn't resist the feeling of challenge and excitement.

I opened my Mobile Phone and checked the messages in the group chat.

Annie gently ran her fingers through her wet hair, then pulled a bath towel and casually wrapped it around her body.

After hesitating for a moment, I walked directly out of the bedroom and came to the door of the study on the third floor.

"Knock knock knock—" A gentle knock on the door.

"Go in!" The voice was cold and deep.

Annie shrugged and then opened the door.

Tang Song was sitting at his desk, intently typing on the keyboard. The lamplight cast shadows on his aloof and handsome face, adding to his air of asceticism.

"Is there something you need?" Tang Song looked up at the Tall Mare.

"You must be incredibly busy, boss." Annie leaned against the door frame, her skin peeking out from under the towel gleaming like pearls.

"Watch your form of address."

"Oh, really?" She deliberately slowed her tone and slightly parted her legs, as if to show that she had washed away the sentence written by Tang Song.

Tang Song stopped what he was doing, leaned back in his chair, and said, "Now, go cut some fruit for me. Remember, do it yourself."

"Okay, but I'm not your personal assistant, I'm just temporarily filling in." She chuckled, her voice trembling with a seductive quality. "By the way, your personal assistant is named Luna, right? Perhaps I should get to know her."

After saying that, she swayed her body and walked away with a cat-like gait.

Tang Song couldn't help but sigh, "That Tall Mare is really resilient. Even with her buttocks beaten up like that, it didn't affect her elegance."

If it were Xiao Jing and Qing Qing, they would probably still be lying on the bed whimpering right now.

A long time passed.

Annie, having changed her clothes, walked in gracefully carrying a fruit platter. "Your fruit, Boss. Specially selected for you."

Tang Song picked up a piece of ruby green pomelo, his gaze swept across the fruit plate, and then fell on the Tall Mare.

He held a segment of fruit to her lips. "Miss Annie, open your mouth."

Annie was taken aback when she suddenly heard Tang Song use the same term of address they had when they first met.

This long-forgotten name instantly evoked images from the depths of her memory— Yi Yi moments when she was utterly suppressed by the Tang Song, powerless to resist.

Her heart suddenly raced, and she instinctively opened her mouth.

Immediately afterwards, Tang Song's slender fingers slid in directly, his movements domineering and brooking no resistance.

His fingertips gently caressed her mouth, bringing a strange, tingling sensation.

Annie's eyes widened, a faint blush rose to her cheeks, and her breathing became rapid.

Tang Song smiled with satisfaction. "You're as obedient as ever."

Looking at Annie's exquisite and charming face in front of him, he suddenly felt that Horse Training was an incredibly interesting thing!

Even without Mission Reward, he would be happy to do it.

The Boshe Private Club.

A faint scent of sandalwood filled the air, and soft background music lingered in the air.

"The Lime3.0 model recently released by Qingning Technology has completely overturned my understanding of multimodal AI."

"Yes, when such technology is applied to industry, such as autonomous driving or medical imaging diagnosis, it's like a game-changer."

"Speaking of application scenarios, the combination of housekeeping services, smart homes, and artificial intelligence is actually a direction with huge potential. Yuyan, what are your thoughts?"

With a bright smile on her face, Shen Yuyan spoke eloquently, her words clear, logical, and well-organized. She not only explained industry trends but also offered her insights using real-world examples from Youjie Home Services.

In addition, her outstanding appearance and fresh and elegant temperament have attracted the attention of many people.

After their conversation, Wang Yubo led her out of the crowd and chuckled, "So? Did you find anything?"

"Thank you, Director Wang. I've learned a great deal," Shen Yuyan sincerely.

Yesterday, in her capacity as General Manager of Youjie Home Services, she met with shareholders of Gongying Technology, including Wang Yubo.

This means we've secured their initial commitment to receive the second installment of Investment Capital.

Today, he specially brought her to this top-tier private club to introduce her to a large number of high-quality connections.

For her, who aspired to climb the social ladder, the CEO of a unicorn company, a partner at a well-known law firm, and an executive at a top investment bank were undoubtedly very attractive resources, further fueling her ambitions. Just as the two paused briefly, a mature and glamorous woman walked gracefully towards them.

In her early thirties, she was voluptuous yet elegant, wearing a fitted black dress.

"Long time no see, Yu Bo."

"Sister Kelly, you're here." Wang Yubo's lips curled up slightly, his smile gentle.

The two shared a warm hug.

Liu Kaili's gaze then fell on Shen Yuyan next to Wang Yubo. She raised an eyebrow and said meaningfully, "Heh, another change? You're still the same, never lacking fresh faces around you."

Her tone seemed teasing, but her eyes revealed a condescending disdain.

Wang Yubo shrugged, neither confirming nor denying, and said, "Haha, Sister Kelly was just joking."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuyan's smile froze for a moment before she quickly composed herself.

She extended her hand and said, "Hello, I am Shen Yuyan. I am honored to come with Director Wang today to learn and exchange ideas."

However, Liu Kaili only gave her a faint warning glance, her hands remaining at her sides, and did not respond to her handshake.

Wang Yubo gave a brief introduction. "Yuyan, this is Ms. Liu Kaili, a partner and member of the Investment Committee of Changhe Fund."

Shen Yuyan pursed her lips and greeted her respectfully, "Ms. Liu."

Liu Kaili nodded, then turned her gaze to Wang Yubo, her eyes sparkling with a hint of allure. "It's been so long since we ate together. When can we get together sometime?"

She had heard before that Wang Yubo had brought a "playmate" to the party.

For her, who had a "friendship" with Wang Yubo, this so-called "playmate" was nothing more than an insignificant nobody.

"Let's wait until I'm done with this busy period, Kelly. As you know, I just joined Mingjian Capital and I have a lot of things to do."

After exchanging a few words, Liu Kaili affectionately pulled Wang Yubo along and joined a small group of people who were having a lively conversation.

Amidst the clinking of glasses and the sounds of laughter, the atmosphere was exceptionally harmonious and lively.

Shen Yuyan stood there awkwardly, a faint smile still on her face, but her heart was in turmoil.

Looking at Liu Kaili, a hidden anger shone through her gaze.

Just then, a murmur arose in the clubhouse.

Shen Yuyan Looked in the direction of the sound and saw a middle-aged man in a casual suit walking into the hall.

He possessed a refined and elegant demeanor, exuding an indescribable air of authority in every gesture.

Just as she was stunned, Wang Yubo, Liu Kaili and others also surrounded her.

Shen Yuyan hesitated for a moment, then followed.

Soon, she learned who the visitor was, and her expression became excited.

Qi Botao one of the partners of Jingwu Capital 'Huaxia region.

Qi Botao is not only an expert and PhD in the field of medical and health care, but also has a profound industry background and is responsible for the investment decisions of Jingwu Huaxia's biomedical sector.

He is a true big shot.

Shen Yuyan a deep breath and followed the crowd.

I wanted to go up and introduce myself, but I was worried about being too forward, so I hesitated and stayed on the periphery.

At that moment, Wang Yubo suddenly turned around and waved to her.

Shen Yuyan quickly followed.

Wang Yubo led her closer to the center of the crowd and casually said amidst the laughter and chatter, "Master Qi, this is Shen Yuyan from Youjie Home Services."

Shen Yuyan's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly took the initiative to greet him, "Professor Qi, it's an honor to meet you."

Qi Botao replied with a smile, but Shen Yuyan didn't hear clearly. However, it didn't stop her from being excited and in High Spirits.

It's important to know that Jingwu Capital is a top-tier global investment institution, far superior to private equity firms like Mingjian Capital and Changhe Capital, which manage billions of dollars.

As one of the partners of Jingwu Huaxia, his importance to them is self-evident.

More importantly, this capital company has close ties with Smiling Holdings and Tang Yi Precision.

Her idols Jin Meixiao and Ouyang Xuanyue, both have shares in this company.

It is very likely that Dr. Qi knows Director Jin and may even report to him.

A moment later, Wang Yubo stepped out from the crowd and his gaze fell on Shen Yuyan.

A smile played on his lips, "Hehe, I promised to introduce you to the senior executives of Jingwu Capital, so I guess I've kept my promise?"

"Thank you, Director Wang."

"You're welcome." Wang Yubo waved his hand, his tone relaxed. "Let's go sit in the reception area for a while. There's something I'd like to talk to you about."

1

In a private meeting room.

"This is the 2015 Harlan Estate vintage, priced at over 20,000 Renminbi. Among Napa Valley's top wineries, it's hailed as 'liquid gold.'"

Wang Yubo personally poured Shen Yuyan a glass of wine and gestured for her to sit down, his movements casual and composed.

Shen Yuyan looked at the red wine in her glass and said in a clear, melodious voice, "Thank you, Director Wang. This is truly an eye-opener. Such a fine wine is not something you can just taste anytime."

"Come on, let's have a toast." Wang Yubo smiled, raised his glass, and gently swirled it towards her.

"Ding—" A crisp sound of glass colliding rang out.

Shen Yuyan lowered her head and took a sip. The rich tannins spread across her tongue like velvet, and the slightly sour fruit flavor blended perfectly with the mellow oak barrel aging flavor, leaving a long and elegant finish.

When she looked up, she found Wang Yubo scrutinizing her with a critical gaze.

Shen Yuyan's heart tightened slightly, and her expression became somewhat unnatural.

As a top beauty, she was used to all kinds of stares, but she rarely encountered a gaze as unrestrained, direct, and even slightly oppressive as Wang Yubo's.

Wang Yubo had always acted like a gentleman, but this change made her feel vaguely uneasy.

"Good wine is different, it tastes really good!" Shen Yuyan with a forced smile, trying to ease the subtle tension in the atmosphere.

Wang Yubo leaned back on the soft Leather Sofa, his gaze still fixed on her.

"Yuyan, you certainly know how to appreciate things. However, I'm more interested in people than wine. Your performance these past two days has impressed me greatly; I admire both your abilities and your charm."

Shen Yuyan's fingers tightened slightly as she held the wine glass, her tone humble and polite. "You flatter me."

"Hehe." Wang Yubo put down his wine glass and said slowly, "What do you think of Mingjian Capital?"

Shen Yuyan's eyes flickered slightly. After a moment's thought, she answered earnestly, "What impressed me most about Mingjian Capital is that it is not just a financial investor in the traditional sense, but also—"

She presented her points clearly and logically, following the STAR-R reporting model, and concluded with humility and respect.

The entire speech was fluent and natural, with meticulous logic, demonstrating a high level of professionalism and emotional intelligence.

After she finished speaking, Wang Yubo smiled with admiration and amusement, "Actually, there's something even more important I wanted to talk to you about today."

"Please speak."

"Mingjian Capital is about to embark on a new round of expansion, and I need an assistant like you who is both capable and knowledgeable about the market. As for your specific responsibilities, you can assist me in handling investment projects, connecting with partners, and of course, you will also participate in some core decisions."

As he spoke the last few words, there was a clear allure and certainty in his voice.

Wang Yubo understood Shen Yuyan, an ambitious woman, all too well; he knew how to use resources and opportunities to seduce her.

In fact, the more he interacted with her, the more he felt that this woman met his expectations —Yi Yi emotional intelligence, high IQ, insightful views on capital operation and management, coupled with an outstanding appearance, she was simply his ideal "Special Assistant".

Shen Yuyan's eyes flickered slightly, but she remained calm and carefully chose her words, saying, "Director Wang, thank you for your appreciation, but I have my own business. As you know, Youjie Home Services is currently at a critical moment."

"Oh?" Wang Yubo didn't expect the other party to refuse. He frowned slightly and coaxed, "I know you've put a lot of effort into Youjie Home Services, but to be honest, that company has limited room for development."

Mingjian Capital is different; it has top-tier resources and a top-tier platform.

I can connect you with truly high-level circles, such as top investment banks and Venture Capital firms.

It can also provide you with a fast track to advancement.

He emphasized the words "rapidly rising," implying something deeper.

As he spoke, Wang Yubo stood up, went to Shen Yuyan's side, and poured her another half glass of red wine.

Then, he sat down next to her, and naturally raised his right hand, ready to put it on her waist.

Shen Yuyan's eyes twitched slightly. She suddenly stood up, took a step back, and said in a firm but still polite tone, "Thank you again for your high regard, Director Wang, but I still insist on my own ideas."

Wang Yubo's face suddenly darkened, and a shadow of gloom flashed in his eyes.

"Oh? So you don't think much of the opportunity I'm offering?"

"No, it's just that I have my own career development plans." Shen Yuyan took a deep breath and pursed her lips. "I hope Director Wang understands. I admire Mingjian Capital very much."

Wang Yubo glanced at her, his expression gradually turning cold.

He felt he had done enough.

He invited her to Magic City, arranged for her to stay in a top hotel, helped her with financing matters, introduced her to high-quality connections, and even offered such tempting terms.

However, he was rejected decisively.

Especially in that instant when he reached out, he caught a glimpse of resistance and disgust in Shen Yuyan's eyes, which deeply stung his pride.

As a top-tier second-generation heir and now a senior executive at Mingjian Capital, he never imagined that a woman would so clearly reject his advances.

Under these circumstances, even if he were still attracted to Shen Yuyan, he would not allow himself to continue to lower his stance.

Since the soft approach isn't working, we'll have to resort to the hard approach.

Wang Yubo stood up and said in a cold tone, "Fine, I'm going to the restroom. You can think about it again."

After saying that, he turned and walked out of the meeting room, leaving behind a tense silence.

Shen Yuyan stood there, her eyes flashing with complex emotions.

Although she doesn't mind using her beauty to gain convenience and preferential treatment, she always has a bottom line.

Otherwise, Youjie Home Services would have already completed its financing.

More importantly, she has decided to pledge allegiance to the Tang Song in the future, and maintaining purity and innocence is the most basic requirement.

The current efforts to secure investment are ultimately aimed at proving one's worth and gaining his approval.

Her inner pride wouldn't allow her to seek refuge as a loser.

She wanted better treatment, not to give in to the current situation.

"Buzz buzz buzz—" The Mobile Phone vibrated.

Shen Yuyan took out her Mobile Phone and glanced at it.

[Gao Zhixue, Purchasing Manager of Xucheng Property]

She answered the phone immediately, a warm and bright smile on her face. "Manager Gao, good afternoon. What can I do for you?"

"President Shen," Gao Zhixue said in a low voice, "It's like this, let's end the cooperation between Xucheng Property and your company here."

Shen Yuyan shocked. "Manager Gao! I'm in Magic City right now. I already spoke with our angel investor yesterday."

The second investment will arrive in your account immediately!

"This was a decision made by our High-ranking official in a meeting, and other more suitable companies have already joined. That's all for now, bye."

After Gao Zhixue finished speaking, he hung up the phone, leaving a busy tone.

She stood there stunned, her face turning ashen instantly.

She used the framework agreement with Xucheng Property as leverage to persuade Gongying Technology to release its commitment to the second tranche of investment.

Now that the partnership has fallen through, the investment has naturally disappeared as well.

Just as she was proclaiming God, her Mobile Phone vibrated again.

[Gongying Technology - Ren Mingyuan]

Shen Yuyan a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down, and answered the phone, "Hello, President Ren, there's something I need to discuss."

Ren Mingyuan interrupted her directly, his voice tinged with reproach and helplessness. "Yuyan, what did you do to offend Director Wang?! He's furious right now!"

Shen Yuyan gritted her teeth and explained, "Director Wang invited me to Mingjian Capital, but I declined."

"You—sigh!" Ren Mingyuan sighed deeply, his tone filled with regret. "You should understand how important Mingjian Capital is, right? A platform like this, with deep industry synergy, state-owned shareholder backing, and full-cycle investment capabilities, isn't something you can just come across easily."

Shen Yuyan's gaze was somber as she stated directly, "So—our second investment is gone, right?"

At this moment, she had a vague idea of the whole story. The fact that Xucheng Property proactively proposed cooperation likely had the backing of Wang Yubo and Gongying Technology.

From the very beginning, this was a meticulously planned scheme, using a seemingly enticing framework contract to dangle her hopes, and then pressuring her to compromise by withdrawing investment.

Thinking of this, a chill and deep hatred welled up in Shen Yuyan's chest.

Ever since she met this senior at the startup incubator, he has been setting traps for her.

"Yuyan, you are outstanding—"

"Senior Schoolmate Ren, I just want to know the answer!"

Ren Mingyuan was silent for a moment before finally speaking, "Yes, and not only that."

According to the Investment Agreement, if your performance still falls short of expectations in the fourth quarter of this year and there are significant deviations in your operations, the Repurchase Clause may be triggered.

You need to repurchase all the shares held by Gongying Technology.

He paused, then added, "Please note that the contract stipulates all equity, including the 14% that Hou Shaoyuan sold to Gongying Technology, totaling 44.4%. Based on a valuation of 20 million, plus interest, Youjie Home Services will need to spend nearly 10 million to repurchase our shares."

These words struck Shen Yuyan like a bolt from the blue.

Her fingers tightened instantly around the Mobile Phone, her fingertips turning white, her lips trembling slightly as she struggled to hold back her tears.

Having passed the CFA Level 1 exam and possessing extensive management and financing experience, she naturally understood Ren Mingyuan's meaning.

The other party is the current major shareholder of Youjie Home Services. If they are really determined to do this, it is indeed very likely to happen.

If Youjie Home Services fails to fulfill its repurchase obligation on time, Gongying Technology will file a lawsuit, freeze the company's assets, and even pursue individual liability.

This means that not only will her hard work be in vain, but she may also be burdened with huge debts and dragged into the abyss.

Hearing Shen Yuyan's heavy breathing, Ren Mingyuan said softly, "Actually, if you just apologize to Director Wang, there might still be room for maneuver."

"Heh-I admit my mistake? Senior, don't you have anything to say to me?" Shen Yuyan coldly, her voice trembling with anger.

Upon hearing the title "senior," Ren Mingyuan's breath visibly caught for a moment. After a long silence, he slowly spoke, "Yuyan, this is reality. Think it over carefully, and I believe you will make the right choice."

"Oh Yi Yi— " The door to the reception room was pushed open, interrupting their conversation.

Wang Yubo walked in calmly, his gaze cold yet playful.

"Well? Have you thought it through? Answer me, you only have this one chance." His tone was casual, yet it exuded a powerful and oppressive aura.

After getting to know Shen Yuyan, he initially held some admiration for her.

She is exceptionally capable, articulate, and possesses ambition and pride that rivals anyone else's.

I had intended to show her the view from a higher perspective, so that she would willingly submit to my charm and power.

However, things took an unexpected turn and went back to the initial plan.

Force her to submit in a cruel way, make her lose hope, and then twist and cater to her.

But that's also quite interesting, especially for women who are ambitious and proud; it always stirs up a kind of secret pleasure deep within him.

Shen Yuyan's chest heaved violently, and her body trembled uncontrollably.

She raised her head, her eyes filled with disgust and hatred, staring intently at Wang Yubo. "You'll regret this!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Yubo's gaze turned sinister, and he said with a contemptuous yet confident tone, "I really didn't expect you to be so naive. Heh, who do you think you are? Do you have the right to say such things to me?"

He paused briefly, then said coldly, "Since you won't agree, then get out. You don't need to attend tomorrow's ' Investor Night ' either."

His words deeply stung Shen Yuyan's pride and self-esteem, and a burning anger raged in her chest, almost consuming her completely.

Even so, Shen Yuyan gritted her teeth and refused to let her tears fall.

She hung up the phone, pursed her red lips, and walked out of the meeting room without saying a word.

The moment I pushed open the door, a cacophony of noise and music hit me.

Walking through the bustling hall, I was surrounded by well-dressed people chatting and laughing.

They were in small groups, holding champagne glasses, their faces beaming with relaxed and joyful smiles.

Laughter and cheers rose and fell, but amidst the clinking of glasses, a suffocating sense of oppression permeated the atmosphere.

Shen Yuyan clenched her fists, her nails digging into her palms.

But the more he tried to suppress it, the stronger the humiliation became.

As she walked out of the clubhouse, she leaned against the wall in the corridor, her expression blank and bewildered.

Much later.

She picked up her Mobile Phone, opened Tang Song's chat window, and began typing with trembling hands.

Study room in Suhe Bay Overseas Chinese Town.

A "ding-dong" sound rang out on WeChat.

Shen Yuyan: "Tang Song, are you free tonight? Let's chat."

Just as Tang Song was about to type a reply, a crisp System Prompt Sound rang in his ears.

"Ding! Player has encountered a matching scene and object. The special item [Whispers of Human Nature] has been triggered, and the dungeon [Shen Yuyan's Whisper] has been created!"
