No reconciliation, no forgiveness! Mr. Pei leaves with nothing.

Jiang Hua's voice sounded somewhat abrupt in the crowd, and everyone looked in the direction from which it came. The male classmate who was blocking Jiang Hua's way felt a sense of oppression emanating from her and subconsciously made way for her.

“Miss Jiang, don’t you even know basic polite language?” Zhou Yan turned around to look at Jiang Hua behind her, and then she continued, “Or do you want me to teach you how to talk to people properly?”

Jiang Hua crossed her arms, took a step back, lowered her head, and smiled enigmatically. She turned around and faced Zhou Yan directly.

Even without high heels, Jiang Hua was still a towering figure in the crowd, both in terms of presence and height, enough to overshadow anyone else.

In comparison, Zhou Yan was half a head shorter than her.

Jiang Hua lowered her eyes and said, "I don't know where Miss Zhou gets her sense of superiority from. Does she think that just because she studied abroad and works for several listed companies, she has forgotten her background? Now she is trying to teach me how to do things. I think she should think about how to be a good person before she teaches me how to do things."

"Senior Jiang, my sister meant no harm, please don't be angry." Song Qingran stepped forward, trying to calm the anger between the two, looking innocent and kind with a wronged expression as she looked at Jiang Hua.

But what Jiang Hua couldn't stand the most was Song Qingran pretending to be an innocent innocent to gain everyone's sympathy.

The incident at the school's artificial lake was still fresh in everyone's mind. All the sarcastic and open remarks on the forum were directed at her alone. Because of Shen Bao'er's special background, no one dared to do anything to her.

Aside from a few high-ranking school leaders, no one knew Jiang Hua's true identity.

Therefore, Jiang Hua became the target of public criticism.

She doesn't usually pay attention to these things, but that doesn't mean she's unaware of them.

Jiang Hua glanced at Song Qingran with disdain. It had been a while since she last saw her, and she looked much more haggard. It seemed that Pei Zhan had been tormenting her quite a bit.

The thought of the two of them naked, making love in bed instantly filled Jiang Hua with disgust.

"Stay away from me, you filthy thing."

"Stop right there!" Seeing her arrogant attitude, Zhou Yan's hatred turned into anger.

Song Qingran tried to stop her, but failed. She watched helplessly as Zhou Yan walked towards Jiang Hua.

I couldn't hear what they were saying at the elevator entrance.

"Regarding the Jiang family's matter last time, if it weren't for Pei Zhan and Qing Ran, do you think the Jiang family would still be alive today? Let me tell you... the only reason I'm willing to issue a public statement is because of Qing Ran. She begged me to spare your Jiang family. If it weren't for her, do you think I would have shown you any mercy?"

"Jiang Hua, it's one thing if you don't feel grateful, but you still act all high and mighty. I don't think you'll ever learn your lesson or realize you're wrong until something happens!"

"I'm telling you, your Jiang family may have escaped once, but you can't escape divine retribution!"

Jiang Hua tilted her head and watched her impotent rage, finding it laughable. Then, seeing her relentless nagging, Jiang Hua's last bit of patience was completely worn away.

Jiang Hua took her phone out of her bag, pulled out the only number on her blacklist, tossed her long hair, and lazily dialed the number…

Pei Zhan had just come out of the conference room and was standing in front of the president's office with a cold expression. Zuo Xiangnan took a step forward and was about to push open the door when, unexpectedly, Pei Zhan's cell phone rang in his suit pocket. Upon seeing the caller ID, the man stopped and deliberately answered the phone at the last second before it was supposed to hang up.

Before he could speak, a voice came from the phone, "I'll give you ten minutes. Come to the school right now and train your woman properly." After this unyielding order, the other party hung up.

"Zhou Yan, you're just someone's employee. It's not good to act like a bully who relies on his master. Think about your place before you say that. Wait until you're capable enough to be compared to me before you say such things to me..."

“Pei Zhan has been a dog for the Jiang family for so many years. He doesn’t bark, but he has indeed accomplished something, unlike some dogs who are nothing but barking.”

"I've already sent him over. If you have anything to say, talk to my dog."

"Oh, right. I forgot to tell you, you and that country bumpkin Pei Zhan have equally bad taste. You two are alike in this respect." Jiang Hua said this last sentence to Song Qingran, who was standing at the door.

Whether she heard it or not, Jiang Hua was talking about her!

Pretending to be dead! Pretending to be dead!

During this time, Jiang Hua has been busy with her own things. She shouldn't cause them any trouble. She should be praying to Buddha after being burned, instead of walking into the line of fire here. If Jiang Hua is ever in a bad mood, she is capable of doing anything.

As the elevator came down, Jiang Hua stepped inside. The instant the elevator doors closed, Jiang Hua watched as Zhou Yan picked up her phone and put it to her ear to answer a call, but she wasn't interested in what was being said.

Zhou Yan, "Brother?"

Pei Zhan, "Did you go to school?"

"You're here to defend Jiang Hua? Brother, don't forget, the Jiang family is our enemy. You should be helping me. Do you even know what Jiang Hua said about you to my face?"

Pei Zhan sat at his desk, pinching the bridge of his nose. "Ayan, I've told you before, don't provoke her. It won't do you any good."

"But I can't swallow this insult. I wish I could pull her down from her high and mighty position right now."

On the phone, Pei Zhan's tone turned serious, "If you don't provoke her, she won't do anything to you. Did you say something to her?"

"I..." Zhou Yan was speechless.

Pei Zhan said, "You don't need to interfere in the Jiang family's affairs. Just focus on your own business. You've come a long way, so don't make me worry anymore, okay?"

With her heart pounding at the last sentence, Zhou Yan said, "I understand. If she dares to speak rudely again, I don't care who she is."

Zhou Yan, who returned from studying abroad, has indeed changed a lot over the years. She has developed her own opinions and is no longer the girl who would only listen to him in everything. So many years have passed, and Zhou Yan's personality is now decisive and unwilling to suffer losses. Over time, she has become more and more similar to Pei Zhan.

Pei Zhan sighed deeply, his tone becoming heavier and colder, "Ayan, if things really get really bad, I can't protect you anymore, understand?"

The Jiang family's connections and influence in the capital were built up over time, much like a century-old tree whose roots are deeply embedded in the soil. Uprooting it would be extremely difficult.

Offending the Jiang family also means becoming enemies with the Shen family…

Zhou Yan slowed down her speech, "I know, it's us, we're too weak and outnumbered."

"You've done so much for our family..."
