Play?

The hearts of the four women twitched again. Fine, they were going there to play.

The next moment, the four of them looked at one another. You look at me, I look at you, and in the depths of each other’s eyes they all saw that almost-smiling curve. Then everyone gave each other a little nod, which counted as an answer.

As soon as she heard the definite answer, Xi Yu’s tough expression instantly turned into delight. Then what she said next stunned all four of them at the same time: "Then count me in too! I’ll go have fun with you guys."

This time, before the four could speak, the middle‑aged woman who’d been following behind Xi Yu all along instantly went pale with panic. "Miss, the crew over in H City is still waiting on you alone." The unspoken meaning was: if you leave, what are we supposed to do?

Xi Yu couldn’t care less. She just tossed the other party two words: "Ask off."

Then she went on giving instructions as she pleased: "Hurry and help me book a ticket to S City."

The person being ordered around still had hesitation in her eyes, so Xi Yu’s voice continued, thick with threat: "If you don’t go now, I don’t mind starting my extended vacation today."

The other woman was so scared she shook her head again and again. "No, no, no, I’ll go right now, I’ll go buy your ticket right now." As an agent, if her artist suddenly went on hiatus, she’d basically be out of a job.

While the so‑called agent rushed off to buy the ticket, An Nan and the others silently gave Miss Xi a thumbs‑up. Truly worthy of coming from a wealthy family—no matter how often she looked like Little White, at a critical moment, all she had to do was slightly pull in the curve of her lips and she could be very imposing.

And the one being praised instantly turned back into an adorable Little White, tugging on An Nan’s sleeve and acting cutesy. "I don’t care, you have to take me with you this time. Otherwise I’ll go tattle." As she spoke, she started shaking the phone in her hand from side to side.

The three women being threatened all wore helpless expressions in an instant, and in the end, they basically acquiesced.

Very soon, the agent who’d left earlier came back with a ticket to S City.

Miss Xi didn’t forget to keep threatening her. "Remember to keep this a secret for me. When my family’s someone calls you, you know what to say, right?"

"Got it." The agent’s face was full of bitterness.

Xi Yu didn’t bother with her. She turned around, face full of joy, and said excitedly to the four women in front of her, "Hehe, let’s go, let’s go, hurry up and get through security."

Urged on by Xi Yu, the five women went through security together and boarded the plane twenty minutes later.

At the same time, Lin Mubai and Han Xiayang had just come out of the VIP passage and immediately started calling a certain little woman’s phone, only to find it directly powered off.

His brows furrowed tighter and tighter. "What’s going on, how is her phone turned off?"

On Lin Mubai’s side, he didn’t have the mind to think much more about it. All his attention was focused on hurrying home; he missed that little woman to death.

Only, half an hour later, Lin Mubai, now in his own bedroom, had a face as black as the bottom of a pot.

No one. This late at night, there was actually no one in the room.

After that, he couldn’t be bothered that it was already so late and went up to the second floor to knock on his parents’ door.

When Lin Ze heard the knocking, he woke up immediately. Seeing that his wife beside him was already showing signs of being awakened, his brows knit at once and he glared in annoyance in the direction of the door. When he didn’t hear more knocking, he gently soothed his wife beside him, and only after she fell asleep again did he get up out of bed.
