Chapter 4: Don't Delude Yourself
Chapter Four: Don't Delude Yourself
The next day, Wen Jin was also woken up by An Yu's phone call.
She was filming in the desert, where the network signal was often unstable, turning her 5G surfing prowess into 3G.
The news that broke last night has only now reached An Yu's ears.
Her first reaction was to speak up for Wen Jinye.
"Isn't the Hong Kong entertainment circle big enough for him? He's come to Jiangbei to show off."
"After all these years, his tastes haven't changed. His eyesight is only clear for a moment when he's talking to you; otherwise, he's as blind as ever."
"It's a wonder they were able to reconcile with He Jiayu, that two-faced green tea bitch."
An Yu was furious and launched an indiscriminate attack.
He fell silent as he spoke.
If Fu Yanjing still harbors feelings for He Jiayu, then Wen Jinye's three years together become a complete joke.
Wen Jin chuckled lightly, completely unconcerned, "It's only three years, just a small episode in my life."
"But what you've wasted on him goes far beyond..."
"An Yu."
Wen Jin's voice was somewhat hoarse.
"Stop defending me. People should always look forward."
They've hit all the walls they needed to hit.
I haven't been able to win his heart for three years.
She should have woken up long ago.

Tang Man is right.
Fu Yanjing is a hot commodity in the media circle, and everyone wants to get a piece of her glory.
Wen Jin was called to a meeting by Director Wang as soon as she arrived at work this morning.
The situation during the Mingjing interview period was not optimistic.
Director Wang leisurely stretched out two chubby fingers, speaking with great enthusiasm, "If we still can't find a new way to turn things around, in two months at most, everyone can pack their things and go find somewhere cool to stay."
"Therefore, we must secure an exclusive interview with Fu Yanjing."
The story of a man about to inherit a vast family business being temporarily transferred to Jiangbei to gain experience and hone his skills, while also having an ambiguous relationship with a popular actress, could be more sensational.
"Of course, Mr. Pang from Pangan Technology is also a key interviewee for us."
At this point, Director Wang took a sip of tea and looked meaningfully at Wen Jinye, "Little Jinye, I remember President Pang used to pursue you, right? I'll leave this matter to you."
The word "chase" is quite subtle.
After all, everyone knows that Pang An has a wife and children.
Back then, Pang An pursued Wen Jinye so passionately that he went to the TV station and openly declared that he wanted to keep Wen Jinye as his mistress, without even acting.
Now, Director Wang has arranged for Wen Jin to also liaise with Pang An, which is clearly a way to make Wen Jin sacrifice her beauty.
But Wen Jin remained silent.
After all, both sides are shit.
She preferred to avoid Fu Yanjing rather than Pang An.
Besides, there are plenty of people eager to marry Fu Yanjing.
Sure enough, Director Wang's next sentence was:
"As for Mr. Fu, Lin Zhiying, you can take charge of that."
Lin Zhiying immediately stood up and exclaimed dramatically, "Thank you for your trust, Director Wang. I will definitely complete the mission and rescue Mingjing from this dire situation!"
As she sat down, she glanced smugly at Wen Jinye.
He let out a haughty snort.
The two of them don't get along and are constantly fighting over resources.
In other words, Lin Zhiying was jealous of Wen Jinye and constantly compared herself to Wen Jinye.
This matter was known even to the entire television station.
The meeting ended, and everyone gradually left their seats.
Xiao Yin walked over and couldn't help but stand up for Wen Jin.
"Could their secret relationship be any more blatant?"
"Everyone knows that Fu Yanjing is a juicy target. If Lin Zhiying can get an exclusive interview with him, her life will be on the rise."
Xiao Yin grumbled as she tidied up, "I'm speechless. Fatty Wang was talking so much, his spittle was all over my notebook, only Lin Zhiying treated it like a holy elixir."
Wen Jin also acknowledged Xiao Yin's offensive prowess and chuckled to himself.
"As journalists, none of us can choose our interviewees based on personal likes or dislikes."
"Let it be Pang'an then, as long as it can revitalize Mingjing."
Mingjing was Tang Man's life's work.
Now that Tang Man is ill, Wen Jin cannot simply stand by and watch Mingjing disappear.
She would go even if it meant facing mountains of knives and seas of fire.

The next day, Wen Jin also arrived at Lancui Golf Course dressed simply.
This stadium is for exclusive members only and is never open to the public. Those who come and go here are either rich or powerful.
At the registration desk, the receptionist, seeing that she was a stranger, stopped Wen Jinye.
"Hello, are you a member here? Did you make an appointment in advance?"
Wen Jin smiled gently and kindly, "Hello, I'm a reporter from Mingjing Interview, my name is..."
"What, another reporter from Mingjing?" The receptionist interrupted her with a disdainful look. "Are your Mingjing reporters here for team building?"
He became increasingly contemptuous as he spoke.
"Just now, a reporter claiming to be from Mingjing Interviews came here without an appointment. He begged for ages, and in the end, a kind young lady led him in."
"And now another one has arrived."
"What exactly are you planning?"
again?
Wen Jin's eyelashes trembled slightly.
She couldn't think of anyone else besides Lin Zhiying.
Lin Zhiying was able to swallow her pride and go to great lengths to get in, which means—
Fu Yanjing was also there.
This conjecture was soon put into practice.
Xu Xiangbai's voice, brimming with interest, rang out from behind, "Reporter Wen, what a coincidence, you're here to play ball too?"
Wen Jin's breath hitched, and she felt as if the blood in her body was about to freeze.
He was clearly determined never to see Fu Yanjing again, but things never went as planned.
She slowly turned around and, sure enough, saw Xu Xiangbai's face next to him, a face with flawless features.
His eyebrows were like green mountains, and his eyes were deep and profound.
He glanced at Wen Jinye lightly, his eyes remaining completely undisturbed.
Wen Jin quickly regained her composure, her polite smile impeccable. "Good morning, Mr. Xu and Mr. Fu."
Xu Xiangbai felt that Wen Jin looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
In addition, Wen Jin was really beautiful, and he was used to playing around in the world of romance, so he always treated women with great tenderness.
Xu Xiangbai was unconcerned with formalities. "Come on, reporter Wen, I'll take you inside, let's have some fun together."
"Thank you for your kind offer, Mr. Xu, but no need, I have an appointment."
Wen Jin also turned around and quickly said to the receptionist, "My interviewee today is Mr. Pang An."
"He should have already made the appointment for me."
The reception was swiftly confirmed, and Wen Jin was also allowed to pass.
The temporary member access card beeped.
at the same time.
She heard a very faint sneer.
"Xu Xiangbai, when are you going to change this habit of not discriminating between meat and vegetables? You're dragging all sorts of people into your place."
Wen Jin's grip on the access card tightened little by little.
She left with her back stiff.
Only a barely audible sound remained.
"You bastard."
————
Pang An's venue was next to Fu Yanjing's.
The sun was blazing.
As soon as Wen Jin entered the venue, Lin Zhiying saw her.
Under the scorching sunlight, Wen Jin's entire body appeared to glow with whiteness.
Her simple attire, without excessive makeup, actually accentuated her pure and elegant beauty.
His face, no bigger than a palm, was covered with facial features.
Anyone who stands here will attract the attention of many wealthy young men on the nearby sports field.
Lin Zhiying immediately sensed the danger.
Clutching her interview outline like a mother hen protecting her chicks, she said fiercely, "You didn't come here to try and steal Fu Yanjing's interview from me, did you?"
She pulled her collar down even further.
"Let me tell you, don't even dream about it! Someone like you isn't even worthy of carrying Mr. Fu's shoes!"
"I'm not worthy, only you are." Wen Jinye's beautiful face showed a faint sarcasm as she continued, "Wanting to carry someone else's shoes like you're sick in the head."
"Pfft."
A clear, melodious laugh came from behind me.
He Jiayu spoke in a coquettish tone, with a hint of accusation, "A-Jing, just how much of a ladies' man do you attract that these two girls are fighting over you here?"
When she looked up at them again, her beautiful eyes revealed a hint of displeasure.
His gaze became more intense, especially when he looked at Wen Jinye.
"Journalists shouldn't be so delusional."
