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

Half past eight in the evening.

In the dark, darkened classroom, Jiang Hua stood in the unlit corridor, watching the car drive away downstairs. Her hand rested on the railing, a cigarette between her slender fingers, the smoke drifting away in the wind…

Then he turned his back and leaned against the wall, tapping the ash off his cigarette.

However, just two kilometers away from the Hongqi car, a familiar car drove past.

Xie Huai keenly noticed the car's license plate number, "It's the car of the president of the Jiang Group."

To be precise, it was Pei Zhan.

Doesn't he know that Miss Jiang is no longer at school?

Shen Yebai suddenly spoke, "Stop the car."

Xie Huai did as instructed and stopped the car.

Pei Zhan gripped the steering wheel with one hand and drove past in a blatant display, without giving a single extra glance.

The vehicle was clearly a symbol of status and position; Pei Zhan wasn't blind, he knew Shen Yebai was inside.

The car drove into the campus...

Jiang Hua stood in the corridor when her phone vibrated in the quiet space. She picked it up and glanced at it, guessing that it was a message from Shen Yebai.

Shen Yebai: Get some rest.

Jiang Hua merely glanced at him without replying.

He stubbed out the cigarette he had half-smoked.

Get up and go back to the classroom.

Suddenly, I heard steady footsteps coming down the stairs; the elevator had already stopped running at this time.

Jiang Hua looked over, saw the person who had come, then turned her gaze away coldly. Without saying a word, she turned and went back to the classroom, locking the door behind her.

They refused to let him in.

Pei Zhan was met with a cold reception outside the door. He had cooked a few dishes before coming, and they were still warm.

Pei Zhan had witnessed her ruthlessness.

Pei Zhan wasn't too surprised by her actions.

Jiang Hua sat at the control panel, continuing to do her work, when the phone next to her started ringing one after another.

Jiang Hua died one after another.

The man, who was just a door away, dialed again and again, tirelessly.

When the fourth call came, Jiang Hua simply blocked it.

I can't even receive messages.

A beeping sound came from the phone's microphone, and the light from the phone reflected in the man's dark pupils.

Jiang Hua didn't know his purpose in coming, but she just didn't want to see him now. She couldn't understand why he had been going to Yulong Bay more and more often during this period, and the two of them had met more often than before.

He should be in Song Qingran's room at this time, not here.

Just as Jiang Hua was about to turn off her phone, a call from a number connected to Yulong Bay popped up on the screen.

Jiang Hua answered the phone and heard Jiang Weiguo scolding her, urging her to go back immediately. It was basically that Pei Zhan had called his father to complain about her locking Pei Zhan out of the classroom.

Jiang Hua got up irritably, answering the phone as she went to open the door. The tall man met her eyes at first glance.

"I've already opened the door for him, Dad, whose side are you on anyway! Never mind, I won't say anything more."

Jiang Hua hung up the phone, turned around, and turned off the camera to stop recording.

"not yet eat."

Jiang Hua packed her things, picked up her bag, and said, "You're concerned about the wrong person."

“I am simply following Chairman Jiang’s orders.” Pei Zhan blocked Jiang Hua’s path, leaving her in a dilemma.

His actions were devoid of any emotion; he was simply forced to do so by an inescapable order.

"Well, you really are a good dog." Jiang Hua clearly didn't want to waste any more words with him, so she pushed him away and locked the repaired jewelry in the box into the safe. "In the future, there's no need to go through all this trouble. I'll explain things to Dad."

"Go back soon, I don't need you around."

"If you don't come out now, I'm locking the door."

When he came out, Jiang Hua turned off the lights and closed the door. She felt a little cold outside, so she put on her coat.

Pei Zhan tried to lift the hair that was pressed under her clothes, but Jiang Hua dodged it without saying a word and strode away.

Pei Zhan followed Jiang Hua at a leisurely pace, noticing that she didn't get into his car.

Looking in the direction she left, it was the apartment she bought near the school.

Inside the car parked across the street.

Xie Huai said, "Miss Jiang, you came out alone."

Jiang Hua crossed her arms and watched as she walked through a passageway and went to a noodle shop.

Shen Yebai said something vague: "She would never have gone to a place like this before."

Xie Huai: "It seems Miss Jiang has truly changed."

The day Jiang Hua got married was the day Shen Yebai left, so he didn't attend her wedding. Until... he heard that she had been in a car accident, Shen Yebai finally chose to return to the capital.

Shen Yebai was meticulous, so how could he not know that Jiang Hua was pretending not to be at school just to avoid him?

Jiang Hua ordered a bowl of noodles with vegetables and shredded pork. She had just sat down when another man walked into the ordinary-looking shop.

Pei Zhan said, "Give me a bowl of noodles, the same kind as hers."

Jiang Hua looked up from her phone, frowned, and said, "You really are a persistent ghost!"

"Is this interesting?"

Their current situation is like the tables have turned. In the past, Jiang Hua revolved around him, and Pei Zhan often went abroad on business trips to avoid her, because he knew that Jiang Hua couldn't fly.

Now... Jiang Hua wants to stay away from him.

He appeared before her time and again.

Pei Zhan pulled out a tissue to wipe the dirt off the table. "Raise your hand."

Jiang Hua stared intently at him, without moving.

Pei Zhan got up again, grabbed her wrist, and wiped it for her, saying, "If you don't wipe it, you'll get your dress dirty."

Jiang Hua didn't want to waste any more words with him, so she took out a hundred yuan in cash from her wallet, put it on the table, and got up to leave.

"After you finish this bowl of noodles, I promise you I will resign from Jiang's Group, give up my position as president, and not interfere in anything anymore."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hua stopped in her tracks, narrowed her eyes, and showed a hint of distrustful surprise. "What trick are you trying to pull now?"

"Would you be willing to give up the Jiang family?"

Pei Zhan took out two pairs of disposable chopsticks, wiped the dust off them, and said, "Isn't this what you wanted?"

"Shouldn't the young lady be happy to hear that?"

Pei Zhan placed another pair of chopsticks beside him, and he sat down in the inner seat, his meaning clear.

"You're willing to leave just for a bowl of noodles? But how can I trust you?"

"I have already sent my resignation letter to Chairman Jiang and the HR department's email address. During this period, Chairman Jiang has taken over all of Jiang's business. Even without me, Xiang Nan will assist Chairman Jiang in handling the company's affairs."

However, Jiang Hua still didn't believe it. Pei Zhan took out his phone, and the page showed his work email. Jiang Hua picked up his phone and opened the document, which was indeed a resignation letter.

"...You agreed so easily, how can I trust you?"

"Pei Zhan, don't treat me like a fool."
