A bodyguard quickly walked to the car door and opened it in a professional and dedicated manner.

As the car door opened, a dignified middle-aged couple slowly walked out.

The men wear crisp suits with elegant and solemn temperament; the women wear elegant cheongsam with gentle appearance and nobility.

Pei Jingchuan's eyes froze slightly when he saw them, and then slowly returned to calm.

His expression revealed a complex emotion, including respect, but also seemed to be mixed with a sense of distance.

Jiang Yuzhu looked at the distinguished couple nervously, feeling a little relieved when her hand was held by Pei Jingchuan.

She took a deep breath and tried to look calm and natural.

Lin Ruoyun stepped out of the limousine gracefully. When her eyes caught sight of Jiang Yuzhu, she raised her eyebrows slightly.

Her eyes were careful and scrutinizing, as if she was looking at everything about Jiang Yuzhu.

Jiang Yuzhu felt Lin Ruoyun's gaze, and her heartbeat couldn't help but speed up.

Standing next to Pei Jingchuan, she tried hard to maintain her composure, but she couldn't calm down inside.

A subtle expression appeared on the corner of Lin Ruoyun's mouth, as if he was evaluating Jiang Yuzhu in his heart.

There was obvious disdain in her tone: "Although you are pretty decent-looking, you seem a bit inconsistent with our identity as Jingchuan. I have always felt that Qing Ning is the most suitable for him. Her family background and temperament are both It’s more suitable for our Jingchuan.”

Hearing Lin Ruoyun's words, Jiang Yuzhu felt displeased.

Her eyes became firm, and although there were turmoil in her heart, she tried to remain calm.

"Mrs. Lin, I understand that everyone has their own opinions, but emotional matters belong to two people and should not be influenced by external standards." Jiang Yuzhu's voice revealed a calmness, "Jingchuan and I are in love. It's our choice."

Pei Jingchuan frowned slightly when he heard Lin Ruoyun's words, and a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

His usually calm demeanor seemed a little firm at the moment, even with a hint of determination.

He gently let go of Jiang Yuzhu's hand, took a step forward, stood in front of Lin Ruoyun, looked directly at her, and said with unquestionable determination in his tone: "Please pay attention to your words, or shut up."

He turned to Lin Ruoyun, his eyes full of determination: "If you come back just to target Yu Zhu, then I think you can leave now."

Lin Ruoyun's face showed a hurt expression after hearing Pei Jingchuan's cold words.

Her eyes showed a hint of grievance, and her voice sounded a bit sad: "Jingchuan, I am your mother, and I am saying this for your own good. You shouldn't treat me like this."

Her words were full of emotional vacillation, as if she was trying to arouse Pei Jingchuan's sympathy.

Pei Tianxiong had been standing by silently, and finally spoke, with a majesty in his voice that could not be ignored.

He looked directly at his son Pei Jingchuan, and his tone was full of father's sternness: "Pei Jingchuan, how can you talk to your mother like this?"

Pei Jingchuan's eyes turned to his father, the expression on his face was cold, and a trace of unyielding flashed in his eyes.

He called his father by his first name, with a firm determination in his tone: "Pei Tianxiong, why are you here? If you want to discuss cooperation, please come back later."

When Pei Tianxiong heard his son calling him by his first name, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he became more severe. There was dissatisfaction in his voice: "Pei Jingchuan, what is your attitude? We are your parents, and you lack the most basic respect for us."

Pei Jingchuan responded expressionlessly: "Respect is mutual. Your attitude towards me and towards Yu Zhu has exceeded my bottom line. I will not tolerate any words or deeds that hurt her."

Pei Tianxiong stood there, his face turned livid when faced with his son Pei Jingchuan's firm attitude.

Lin Ruoyun looked at this scene and wanted to say something, trying to ease the tense atmosphere.

She opened her mouth and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Pei Jingchuan.

"Lin Ruoyun!" Pei Jingchuan called her name coldly, without a trace of warmth in his voice, and his eyes were cold and hard, "We don't need any false concern. If your visit is just to criticize and interfere with my private life , then please leave immediately."

Lin Ruoyun showed an expression of disbelief when her son called her by her first name. The corners of her mouth trembled slightly, and a trace of anger flashed in her eyes.

Pei Tianxiong looked at his son angrily, his voice full of resentment: "How can you talk to your mother like this, Pei Jingchuan! Have you forgotten your tutor?"

Pei Jingchuan's eyes did not waver, and his stance was unwavering.

The anger in Pei Tianxiong's eyes gradually receded and was replaced by a calm look.

He took a step forward and got to the point directly, with an unquestionable seriousness in his tone: "I heard that you are fighting against Shen's company. Is this true?"

Pei Jingchuan's eyes flickered slightly after hearing his father's direct question. He couldn't help but sneer in his heart, thinking: "Sure enough, in your eyes, commercial interests are the most important."

His eyes were deep and there was an unquestionable firmness in his tone: "It is true. Shen's company not only involves my business interests, but also touches my principles. Moreover, it is not just us, but also several big families They are all involved in this fight.”

After hearing Pei Jingchuan's words, Pei Tianxiong's eyes flashed with interest.

His business acumen began to calculate the possible outcomes and benefits of this struggle. "If this confrontation can be won, it will indeed bring considerable benefits to the family." He thought in his heart, with a calculating smile on his face.

Pei Tianxiong thought for a moment, and the calculating light in his eyes became more and more obvious. He suddenly made a gesture to signal the assistant outside to come over.

Following his call, a beautiful secretary in professional attire stepped out of the car.

She held a tablet in her hand and walked towards Pei Tianxiong steadily and gracefully.

Pei Jingchuan and Jiang Yuzhu turned their eyes to the female secretary, and her professional demeanor caught their attention.

The female secretary walked up to Pei Tianxiong and handed over the tablet respectfully. "Mr. Pei, here are the latest data on Shen's company's current financial situation and market analysis." Her voice was clear and steady.

Pei Tianxiong took the tablet and began to browse the information on it carefully.

His brows sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed, obviously conducting in-depth analysis.

Pei Jingchuan stood quietly aside, observing his father's reaction.

There was a thoughtful look in his eyes, as if he was evaluating the decision his father might make.

Pei Tianxiong's eyes were fixed on the data on the tablet, and his fingers quickly slid across the screen, obviously performing some kind of operation.

His expression was focused and serious, as if he was making an important decision.
