"I said..."
Sophie's eyes widened as she looked toward the source of her unease!
Ning Feng!
Although the man in front of her was smiling and his movements were impeccable, Sophie's gaze faltered for a moment because of that smile.
Sophie's vision blurred, and she saw only darkness, within which she seemed to see something profound about to break free.
From the indescribable, endless darkness!
But before she could panic, the darkness vanished instantly, and she realized it was all just an illusion.
Ning Feng remained where he was, his expression gentle, and he spoke sincerely:
"I have things to take care of today, could you give me some time to think about it?"
Is that an illusion?
Regardless of Sophie's identity as a diplomat, her background alone has allowed her to witness many legends and sense various auras emanating from them.
But even she had never felt that kind of aura.
Cold and profound, evil but not brutal.
"...Okay, sure."
Sophie answered instinctively, not even knowing why she had lost her composure like that.
A smile appeared in Ning Feng's eyes as he looked at Sophie and said softly with a smile:
"Thanks."
After saying that, he nodded to Sophie, who looked somewhat weak, and turned to leave.
"Wait, wait a minute."
She was a little weak at first, but she recovered quickly in the next moment. After saying those few words, Sophie was completely back to normal.
She remained as graceful and proud as ever, like a peacock.
"Miss Jasmine?"
"You'll need my contact information to let me know later, right?"
Blinking, Sophie pulled a piece of paper from the table and wrote her name and contact information on it in cursive script.
Sophie put down her pen, looked at the somewhat empty paper, and a smile appeared in her eyes.
She lifted the paper and then gently pressed her lip print onto it.
Ning Feng: ...?
Sophie confidently handed over the signed paper, a sly smile playing on her lips.
"Here, this is my contact information. Remember to call me!"
Ning Feng raised an eyebrow, gave Sophie a careful look, and then he smiled.
He naturally reached out and took it, folded it, and put it in his pocket.
"Okay, I'll get back to you later."
After that, he didn't say anything more, gave a slight bow, and then turned and walked out of the room.
Card.
The room fell silent again, and Sophie's expression gradually changed.
She seemed both annoyed and angry, but in the end she calmed down and shook her head with a smile.
"An interesting man..."
winter.
She fell backward, disregarding her image, and pulled her phone from her purse to make a call:
"Hello? I have... no, I haven't met that legend yet."
"Well, I have something else to say. Before that, I had something..."
Twisting the end of her hair with her slender index finger, Sophie thought of the darkness she had just experienced. She paused, then continued as usual:
"As an extra discovery, I found a rather special treasure."
"Yes, it's a man."
"No, this time it's not that I want to find a man."
Sophie downed the last of the red wine in her glass, a strange flush rising to her face. She laughed into the phone.
"Trust my intuition, he really is a very special person."
"High-stakes gambling? What kind of high-stakes gambling is this? Besides, have you ever seen me lose a bet?"
"……name?"
Setting down her wine glass, Sophie squinted and whispered slowly:
"Ning Feng".
...
...
After leaving the meeting room that Sophie was temporarily using, Ning Feng paused briefly at the door before continuing towards his original destination.
His face showed no sign of anything unusual, as if nothing had happened, and he nodded to everyone he met as usual.
Just as Ning Feng walked into an empty corridor, he heard a cold, clear voice.
A sound came from the window of the trial:
“You are too influenced by Ariana.”
In the mirror, the angel in the white dress calmly warns:
"This level of stimulation shouldn't make you lose control."
You shouldn't be allowed to reveal a part of your power that doesn't belong to you.
Without stopping, Ning Feng nodded.
"You're right, I shouldn't have exposed my power like that."
"but……"
With a light laugh, Ning Feng's coldness vanished, replaced by a playful expression at the corner of his mouth.
"However, what if I had deliberately guided that development instead of doing it unintentionally?"
“Sophie Jaslin, she is a very smart woman. Since she has already noticed the problem, why not show her what is visible on the surface?”
Is what she saw really the truth?
No, those are just things I want her to see.
"And... I think we'll see each other again soon."
It probably won't take much time.
"…………"
Ning Feng glanced at Cecilia's reflection in the mirror and noticed her slightly furrowed brows, which surprised him.
"What's wrong?"
I didn't do anything strange.
"No, I just feel..."
With a meaningful look in her eyes, the angel spoke softly:
"You're becoming more and more like her."
