Chapter 103 Attending the Banquet
Thinking of this, Wen Mian let out a long sigh, picked up his satchel and left.

"Since Mr. Pei has nothing important to do, I will go back first. After all, I still have work for the organization. It would be bad if I was delayed."

With that said, Wen Mian turned around and wanted to leave.

Pei Zhiyao raised his hand and took Wen Mian's wrist, seemingly calm, but actually he was excited to keep him.

"I let you go?"

Under the order, Wen Mian was a little at a loss.

Pei Zhiyao's tone did not tolerate disobedience.

"I told you, you still want to leave without my instructions?"

"But what's the use of me here? Could it be that I have a styling function? Mr. Pei still has things to do, and it's time for me to do my job."

"There's still something to do, so you can't leave now."

The office door was slammed shut.

Wen Mian was shocked, but saw that Pei Zhiyao's face remained calm.

The man raised his hand and took out the document, signed two words casually, and then said, "There is a banquet tonight and you need to attend. The time is approaching. Isn't it inappropriate for you to leave now?"

Wen Mian was forced to pause.

Looking back, Pei Zhiyao's face was already calm.

"What if I don't agree?"

"You don't have to go, but don't blame me for not telling you. Among the guests attending the banquet tonight is the party who ordered your father's accident. You can decide for yourself whether you want to go."

Wen Mian, who was originally thinking of rejecting Pei Zhiyao, fell silent for a moment.

The woman took a breath, and at the same time, the thoughts in her heart slowly rose.

Just when Pei Zhiyao pretended not to care, Wen Mian finally regretted it.

"Are you serious?"

Pei Zhiyao didn't even raise his eyelids.

"Of course, when did I lie to you?"

"Then I'll go."

Wen Mian came slowly and gradually approached Pei Zhiyao's desk.

In the corner where Pei Zhiyao couldn't see, Wen Mian's mood changed drastically.

"Are you sure you can see that person? If I attend the banquet, will anyone stop me?"

"As my female companion, why were you stopped when you showed up normally? Don't worry." If it weren't for this, Wen Mian would not have casually agreed to Pei Zhiyao's request.

And Wen Mian sat in the office all day long.

It wasn't until the time came in the evening that Wen Mian put on a coat and followed Pei Zhiyao, waiting to enter the venue together.

"Let's go, you know most of the people here."

Wen Mian would rather not know this group of people than embarrass himself in front of everyone.

As soon as he entered the door, Wen Mian looked around.

The splendid clubhouse was cast with a layer of inexplicable ambiguity at this moment.

Before Wen Mian could ask, a familiar figure came from a distance and interrupted Wen Mian's subsequent actions.

At the same time, it also attracted Pei Zhiyao's attention.

"Boss Pei."

The man reached out his hand in a friendly gesture.

Wen Mian beside him kept frowning, watching Yang Lei's every move.

"Miss Wen is also here. It seems that the banquet tonight will be very lively. I see that Miss Wen's face is not very good. What happened?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the man pretended to be suddenly enlightened.

Shock was already filling his face.

Not long after, Yang Lei immediately smiled apologetically, as if he knew he had said the wrong thing.

"I'm sorry, Miss Wen. We all know about your father's incident. I accidentally said the wrong thing just now. Don't be offended. I'm really sorry. We are also very sorry about your father's situation..."

Wen Mian frowned, the emotion between his eyebrows becoming more and more obvious.

The dark bird of prey was fleeting, but quickly disappeared.

Pei Zhiyao beside him subconsciously held Wen Mian's hand.

In just one second, Wen Mian quickly let go.

"No need to say these polite words, I care more about what happened back then than these unfounded things."

Yang Lei hesitated for a few seconds.

His eyes were like shrewd light, one moment falling on Pei Zhiyao, the next moment falling on Wen Mian.

Seeing that Pei Zhiyao didn't respond, Yang Lei said, "Then let's find a place to talk in detail? I can't remember the details of that year, but I still know the general things."
