Pei Yu stared coldly at Liang Yan for a long time before saying coldly, “Young Master Chu is really lucky. Your girlfriend actually cares for you this much.”

“No, no.” Chu Zhou wiped his non-existent sweat. How could he not know that President Pei was targeting Liang Yan?

“That piece of land will be auctioned in three days. Young Master Chu, don’t disappoint me.” After he finished speaking, Pei Yu didn’t look at Liang Yan again and turned to leave. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and stopped in his tracks. “There’s a party tomorrow. Young Master Chu, if you’re interested, you can come and play.”

Chu Zhou was overjoyed and nodded in agreement.

No one cared about Liang Yan.

After Pei Yu left, the people who were watching the show gradually dispersed. Chu Zhou received the good news and sent Pei Yu out eagerly, leaving only Jiang Sheng at the side. He wanted to get someone to send Liang Yan home.

“You don’t have to worry about it, Director Jiang.” After Liang Yan rejected him coldly, she staggered out.

However, this villa was far away from the city, so it was not easy to get a taxi. Liang Yan squatted in a corner, enduring the dizziness and the cold wind. As she was hailing a taxi, a car suddenly stopped beside her.

Liang Yan looked up and saw a looming shadow in the car window. Her heart tightened.

As expected, Pei Yu’s assistant, Li Jie, got out of the car and said respectfully, “Miss Liang Yan, President Pei is inviting you in.”

“I’m not going,” Liang Yan refused in a dry voice. She stood up unsteadily and was about to leave.

Li Jie stretched out his arm to block Liang Yan’s path. “Miss Liang Yan, don’t make the president unhappy again.”

That’s right. She was just a small employee. How could she offend the dignified president of the Pei Corporation?

Just like just now, Pei Yu had humiliated her so much, but there was nothing she could do.

Thinking of this, Liang Yan gave up arguing and got into the car as if she had accepted her fate.

The car began to move forward.

The heater in the car was very strong, and Liang Yan’s frozen body quickly relaxed. She looked at the man beside her. He was dressed luxuriously, sacred and inviolable. Then, she looked at herself. She reeked of alcohol and was like a drunkard. In front of him, she was as humble as dirt.

Her inferiority complex gripped Liang Yan’s heart tightly. She did not want to stay in the car any longer.

“What? President Pei, did I not drink enough?” Liang Yan retorted in a cold voice.

In the past, she had always been obedient and docile in front of Pei Yu. However, today’s inexplicable targeting and humiliation made it difficult for her to calm down. Her tone was also tainted with grievance and anger.

Pei Yu turned his head slightly and looked at Liang Yan deeply, as if he wanted to see through her.

Just as Liang Yan was feeling restless, Pei Yu suddenly leaned over. Liang Yan’s heart tightened and she subconsciously wanted to retreat, but she forgot that the car window was behind her and bumped into it.

The thud broke the awkward silence in the car.

Liang Yan covered her head and looked at Pei Yu awkwardly and innocently.

She did not know if it was an illusion, but she seemed to have seen a flash of a smile in Pei Yu’s eyes. However, when she took a closer look, it was cold again.

Liang Yan thought that she had seen wrongly.

Pei Yu supported one hand against the car window, circling Liang Yan in his arms. His gaze fell on the necklace around her neck and he scoffed. “You left me and got a new sugar daddy so quickly?”

Liang Yan wanted to explain, but when she saw Pei Yu’s disdainful gaze, she suddenly deflated.

There was no point.

Ever since Chu Zhou introduced her as his woman, everything had been meaningless. Pei Yu would never believe her.

After all, in his eyes, she was a woman who would sell everything for money.

Pei Yu saw that Liang Yan lowered her head in silence and thought that she had tacitly agreed. His eyes darkened and a dangerous aura instantly filled the car. He grabbed Liang Yan’s chin fiercely and forced her to raise her head to look at him.

The chill on her fingertips made Liang Yan’s hair stand on end, and she couldn’t help but shiver.

“What does it have to do with you?” Liang Yan glared at the man fiercely like an enraged little rabbit.

What did it have to do with him who she was with? Did he care? Wasn’t he already with Chen Yuan? Why did he still provoke her?

The more Liang Yan thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. She bit her lip and tried her best not to cry.

However, in Pei Yu’s eyes, Liang Yan was rebelling against him for her new sugar daddy.

“Liang Yan, good for you.” Pei Yu narrowed his phoenix eyes. “Didn’t I say that I don’t like others touching my things?”

Not to be outdone, Liang Yan also looked at the man in the eye. However, the strong aura of someone in a superior position for a long time made Liang Yan quickly lose. She looked away in a panic. “I’m no longer yours. No matter who I’m with, it has nothing to do with you.”

Pei Yu sneered, his eyes filled with ruthlessness. “Even if it’s a dog I raised, I won’t allow it to have a second master.”
