I accidentally messed with a wealthy family, and my blind date was the CEO.

She gritted her teeth and responded coldly to Jiang Yuzhu: "Don't be too complacent. Our family just encountered some temporary difficulties, and they will be over soon." Although her voice was firm, she could not hide the hidden meaning in her voice. Trembling, revealing her inner uneasiness.

The corners of Jiang Yuzhu's mouth raised slightly, with a hint of imperceptible sarcasm. Her tone was calm, but it concealed a sharp tit-for-tat: "That's really good news, Miss Shen. I sincerely hope that your family can get through this difficulty smoothly. "Although her words sounded like blessings, they seemed ironic in this tense atmosphere.

Shen Nian's eyes became sharper, and she could sense the double meaning in Jiang Yuzhu's words.

There was a hint of displeasure in her voice: "Thank you for your 'kindness'. But I hope you can take care of yourself. After all, in this circle, no one can guarantee that everything will always be calm."

In this verbal battle, Jiang Yuzhu obviously did not want to continue arguing with Shen Nian.

She turned around and walked elegantly towards Pei Jingchuan's office chair, her movements light but full of confidence.

When she sat down, her posture was calm, as if the position belonged to her. Jiang Yuzhu's actions seemed to silently indicate his status.

Jiang Yuzhu leaned back in her chair easily, took out her phone and began to slide the screen gently.

Her fingers danced on the screen, her eyes focused, not paying attention to Shen Nian at all.

Her attitude seemed to treat Shen Nian's existence as air. Her full attention was on the screen of her mobile phone, showing a calmness.

Shen Nian was sitting on the sofa, with a hint of anger on her face. Although she wanted to continue to vent her emotions.

But she also realized that if Pei Jingchuan really showed up, her behavior might displease him.

Her lips were pursed tightly, and there was a trace of struggle and unwillingness in her eyes.

Finally, Shen Nian seemed to have made up her mind. She stopped making any noise and just sat silently on the sofa, waiting for Pei Jingchuan's arrival.

Her eyes sometimes looked towards the door, sometimes lowered, as if she was thinking intensely deep in her heart.

Jiang Yuzhu noticed Shen Nian's changes, but she did not make any comments about it.

She was still operating her phone intently, only occasionally raising her eyes to look at Shen Nian, with an unfathomable calmness in her eyes.

Time seemed to flow slowly in this quiet office until the moment Pei Jingchuan's meeting ended.

The door of the conference room opened slightly, and Pei Jingchuan's figure appeared at the door.

His expression looked slightly tired, but he still maintained his usual calmness.

The assistant came forward quickly, with a trace of anxiety on his face. Pei Jingchuan's slightly tired eyes lingered on the assistant's face, and his voice was calm and indifferent: "What happened?"

The assistant replied in a low voice, with a hint of caution in his tone: "Mr. Pei, Miss Shen has been waiting for you in your office. She seems to be a little excited, and Madam is also inside."

When Pei Jingchuan heard the assistant's words, a sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth, and a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

Thinking that Shen Nian actually went to his company to cause trouble.

His tone was still calm, but there was an air of majesty that was hard to ignore: "She's here again? She didn't scare Yu Zhu, did she?"

The assistant answered hastily, with a hint of respect and caution in his voice: "No, Mr. Pei. Dr. Jiang looks very calm and does not seem to be affected."

Pei Jingchuan's expression softened slightly and he nodded, seemingly satisfied with Jiang Yuzhu's response. He took a deep breath, adjusted his emotions, and then slowly walked into the office.

When Pei Jingchuan walked to the door of the office, he suddenly stopped.

He turned around and his eyes fell calmly on the assistant who was following behind him.

There was a calm majesty in Pei Jingchuan's eyes, which made the assistant nervous involuntarily.

Pei Jingchuan's eyes were deep and his voice was low: "Contact Song Yanghao and tell him that I will have a video call with him in an hour."

The assistant nodded quickly, her expression revealing professional efficiency: "Okay, Mr. Pei." There was respect for Pei Jingchuan's decision-making in her voice.

Pei Jingchuan expressed satisfaction with the assistant's reaction. He nodded slightly, then turned around and opened the office door and stepped inside.

The assistant quickly left, picked up the phone and started arranging a video call with Song Yanghao. Her movements are quick and precise, demonstrating efficiency in her work.

Pei Jingchuan gently opened the office door, and his figure came into Shen Nian's eyes.

Shen Nian's expression immediately became vivid, as if he had discovered an oasis in the desert.

She stood up quickly and walked towards Pei Jingchuan in a hurry, with obvious eagerness in her eyes.

"Jingchuan, you are finally here!" Shen Nian's voice was full of an almost exaggerated enthusiasm, with a sweet smile on her face, trying to show her best side in front of Pei Jingchuan.

Her movements were a little too eager, almost jumping close to Pei Jingchuan, as if she wanted to attract his attention in this way.

"Are you busy at work? I've been waiting for you here for a long time." Shen Nian's tone was a bit coquettish, and her eyes kept circling Pei Jingchuan's face, trying to find any response from him.

She quickly added, "I know you are busy, but I really want to see you. You see, I came here specially..." Shen Nian's voice was trembling, obviously trying to express her sincerity.

Pei Jingchuan stood in front of Shen Nian. There was no change in his expression on his face, maintaining his usual alienation.

There was unfathomable depth in his eyes, as if he was scrutinizing Shen Nian's every move.

Pei Jingchuan's voice was low: "Miss Shen, what brings you here?" His question was straightforward and there was no room for maneuver.

Facing Pei Jingchuan's iceberg-like indifferent attitude, Shen Nian felt an indescribable bitterness in his heart.

She knew very well that she was in a weak position at the moment and needed Pei Jingchuan's help, so she did not dare to act any more recklessly.

Shen Nian's face gradually became pitiful, a trace of pleading appeared in her eyes, and her voice was soft and full of sadness: "Jingchuan, I know I did a lot of wrong things before, but now, our family has really encountered a big problem. Trouble. I...I can only come to ask you for help."

There was an almost desperate pleading in her eyes, trying to touch Pei Jingchuan's heart: "You have always been a capable person. If you can lend a helping hand, our family... we will definitely be grateful."

As Shen Nian spoke, a few tears even overflowed from the corners of her eyes. This helpless look was very different from her usual arrogant image, and it seemed particularly difficult.

Pei Jingchuan's sneer broke the silence in the office, and his voice was without any warmth: "Miss Shen, what exactly do you need my help with?" Although his words were brief, they conveyed a kind of coldness, as if he was putting Shen Nian in a Under invisible scrutiny.

Shen Nian felt the displeasure hidden in Pei Jingchuan's words, but in her opinion, this at least proved that Pei Jingchuan did not completely reject her request.
