Jiang Hua didn't even glance at them, and said to the servants, "I can't accept that title. You should save that title for someone else in the future."

Before coming here, Jiang Hua had already told her father that since the Wang family had fallen and no one could threaten the Jiang family anymore, she had no feelings for Pei Zhan, so why wouldn't he let her divorce Pei Zhan?

At that time, the Wang family still held shares in the Jiang family, which made my father always wary, fearing that they would join forces to turn against the Jiang family. Fortunately, the Wang family members were just a group of people who enjoyed the benefits without doing anything.

If Dad really handed over all control of the Jiang family, the Wang family might not be able to manage it well. It might even go bankrupt in less than three years due to mismanagement. The Wang family is used to living a luxurious and extravagant life. Those spoiled brats in the Wang family love to sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor. They don't have to do anything. They just receive dividends from these stocks every year and live a glamorous life, pretending to make a name for themselves.

In their eyes, Pei Zhan was nothing more than a tool to make money. Initially, they looked down on Pei Zhan for making any decisions in the company because of his background. During this time, the Wang family members in the company did a lot of things to trip up Pei Zhan.

When the Jiang family lost money, the stock price declined, and they couldn't make any money, they realized the benefits of their father keeping Pei Zhan at the Jiang family.

The Wang family truly witnessed Pei Zhan's abilities. During this time, they extended olive branches to him, trying to establish their own household and even completely seize control of the Jiang family. They made numerous attempts to do so, all in an effort to kick their father out of the Jiang family, because they felt that everything their mother owned should belong to the Wang family.

During the period when the father delegated power to Pei Zhan, the Wang family tried to matchmake their little princess with Pei Zhan, aiming to completely bind Pei Zhan to the Wang family. In this way, Pei Zhan would naturally become the Wang family's son-in-law.

He had no reason not to help the Wang family. In this way, his father would find it difficult to move forward in the Jiang family, and it was only a matter of time before he was sidelined.

The Wang family is ruthless. Once Dad is sidelined, not only will he not be able to save his life, but Jiang Hua might not even be alive today.

How could Dad not know what the Wang family was thinking? So... besides the Wang family, Dad also put in a lot of effort to bring her and Pei Zhan together.

Jiang Hua started pestering him because of what her father said; initially, she didn't have any romantic feelings for him.

Pei Zhan also has a fiancée, and he doesn't even glance at her. No matter how beautiful she is, it seems that she can't move this country bumpkin. His heart only belongs to his fiancée.

Jiang Hua had already given up by then; she was at her wit's end and couldn't move this heartless person.

Jiang Hua initially became interested in him because his habits were somewhat similar to Ji Liangchuan's. Later... she discovered that he was completely impervious to persuasion. She wasted so much time. Let whoever wants to seduce him go ahead.

I won't serve you anymore.

To avoid her father's questions, Jiang Hua didn't return to Yulong Bay for two consecutive months, instead staying at the clubhouse hotel.

Jiang Hua was also a bit of a slacker, only caring about having fun, and had long forgotten about Pei Zhan. Around the third month, rumors started circulating in Beijing's social circles that Pei Zhan had started dating the daughter of the Wang family and was preparing to recruit Pei Zhan into the Wang family.

By then, Jiang Hua had already changed her target and set her sights on a promising individual named Rong Xingzhi, who worked in the internet industry and was also quite good-looking.

Anyway, all we need is someone with a good head to manage the company. Why choose someone who doesn't know their place?

Coincidentally, she met Pei Zhan again at a banquet in the fourth month. The two of them brought their male and female companions, and they pretended not to know each other when they met.

I drank a beverage afterwards, and I was probably drunk.

When she came to her senses, she found herself in bed with Pei Zhan, completely dazed.

Furthermore... Pei Zhan said he would take responsibility, so they got married.

However, the current trajectory has begun to completely change from that of her previous life. Jiang Hua has considered divorce more than once. Without the Wang family, there is no longer any threat. As long as she gets divorced, Jiang Hua can give up half of her shares. With his abilities, earning hundreds of millions a year is not a problem. Anyway, no one knows that she is married.

Who knew that her father would say that one shouldn't kick someone when they're down, and he absolutely refused to agree to her divorce from Pei Zhan.

"Young mistress, please have some tea."

Jiang Hua sat on the sofa with her legs crossed, stroking the vintage gemstone ring on her ring finger. She had seen Pei Zhan and Song Qingran's actions and the way their eyes were vying for attention; it didn't seem like they were no longer related.

Suddenly, Jiang Hua seemed to have a sudden thought, as if she had just remembered something…

"Since Aunt Xu isn't here, let's have dinner at Xiangweiju tonight. Is that alright, young mistress?"

"whatever."

Jiang Hua picked up her phone and sent a message to the detective agency: "Help me find out how long it will take to find out about Pei Zhan's previous fiancée."

The other party quickly replied, saying: All the information will take at least three days.

Jiang Hua: I'll give you two days at most.

Without uttering a single wasted word, Jiang Hua transferred 100,000 yuan.

The other party: I guarantee to complete the task you assigned.

Jiang Hua helped herself up the stairs and told the maid, "I'm asleep, don't disturb me."

"It's the young mistress."

That's an awful way to address someone; it makes them sound old.

Less than ten minutes after the message was sent out, Pei Zhan had already anticipated Jiang Hua's actions. Zuo Xiangnan came over and said, "Miss, you really went to investigate President Pei's fiancée from back then."

As expected, that's all.

Huahua still hasn't given up on the idea of ​​divorcing him.

Pei Zhan stood in front of the French windows, turned around, and stubbed out the half-smoked cigarette in the ashtray. "If it can be resolved, then resolve it thoroughly and cleanly."

"Contact the best cardiology team in France..."

"Now that you're gone, who will take over the capital?"

Pei Zhan: "I have my own plans."

Jiang Weiguo's focus on money is not without reason; money can buy life and prolong life.

Jiang Hua's illness, no matter how big the bottomless pit, can be burned as much as money can burn.

Nothing is more important than everything about Jiang Hua.

He wanted her to live. The Huo family had invested heavily in medical research institutes all over the world, and they had a share in all kinds of rare drugs, including various drugs for treating heart disease. The drugs Jiang Hua was currently taking were all developed by the Huo Group. No matter how good the drug was, it would eventually become ineffective.

I'll have to go back to France sooner or later, so I might as well finish things up in the capital as soon as possible and then leave with her.

Pei Zhan returned earlier than usual. When he arrived at Jinsha Shallow Bay, a ray of golden sunset fell on the garden. As the car slowly came to a stop, the man got out and walked into the villa.

"Young Master."

Where is Huahua?

"The young mistress has already gone back to her room to rest and asked us not to disturb her."

Pei Zhan went upstairs and looked at the pair of high heels placed in the entryway. In their home, which belonged only to them, Pei Zhan felt a sense of belonging that he had never felt before. The servants were very considerate. When Pei Zhan returned and they had everything ready, they would leave the hall and give them space to be together.

A table full of dishes was already prepared. Jiang Hua preferred light and sweet flavors. Pei Zhan used to dislike the tastes of the capital, but over the years, his tastes have changed along with hers.

In the dimly lit room, the heavy door opened gently, revealing a bedside lamp. The soft carpet made no sound underfoot. Jiang Hua was fast asleep, lying on her side hugging the blanket, her long, slender, fair legs exposed. Pei Zhan reached out and covered her with the blanket. Even though she habitually occupied most of the middle of the bed, there was still enough room for several people to lie down on either side.

She was someone who could sleep soundly until the world turned dark, but was woken up by a strange heat and covered in sweat. She kicked off the covers and heard sounds coming from the bathroom. She thought it was a hallucination, but when she came to her senses, she realized she hadn't misheard.

Looking at the still-bright sky outside, he... came back so early?

Pei Zhan walked out of the bathroom, wearing a black striped robe with a belt around his waist. He was drying his dripping hair with a white towel in his hand. When he saw the person who had woken up, he slowly walked forward and said, "I thought... you wouldn't come back."

Jiang Hua sat up in bed and looked at his pretentious and innocent appearance, which was actually full of scheming and wickedness. "You're just putting on an act for me. You learned it from Song Qingran, didn't you?"

"Go outside after you're done washing, don't bother me."

Jiang Hua was still half asleep. She had been organizing books and materials until almost two or three in the morning, and even after sleeping for two or three hours, she was still very sleepy. As soon as Jiang Hua lay down, Pei Zhan brushed his half-dry, still slightly damp hair back, with a few strands falling between his eyebrows and eyes. There were many things he didn't do in Yulong Bay, but now that he was back in his own territory, Pei Zhan didn't need to hide anything anymore.

He stepped forward, lifted Jiang Hua who had just lain down, and held her in his arms. Before Jiang Hua could react, she asked, "What are you doing?"

"Take Mrs. Pei downstairs for dinner."

When they arrived at the restaurant downstairs, none of the servants were there, only a table full of dishes. Jiang Hua couldn't eat much, but Pei Zhan would finish the leftovers over two or three days.

This habit is probably an inherent flaw that he can never change in his entire life.

Jiang Hua, still half asleep, had a completely blank mind and felt weak all over. She didn't want to move a single finger. Pei Zhan probably sensed her thoughts, because he picked up his chopsticks, placed a piece of fish near her mouth, and put it in front of her mouth.

"How did you convince the Huo Group to take 95% of the profits from the Taoyuan Village tourism development project? Are the Huo Group people all idiots?"

No one has ever dared to negotiate with them like this before.

Pei Zhan pursed his lips and nodded, responding to Jiang Hua's words, "What the Huo family has in abundance is land in the capital. They are probably too rich. Compared to these profits, the Huo family values ​​domestic market share more. I promise to help them achieve a 25% share of the domestic market within three years, and in return, I will give all these profits to the Jiang family unconditionally."

"Sure enough, you can get your hands on Dad when it comes to money."

"What's the difference between this and selling your daughter?"

Jiang Hua's temper flared up at the sight of him. "Alright, I'm not eating anymore, I have no appetite." She got off him, but Pei Zhan still hadn't let go.

"Try this soup, and you can go back to your room after you finish it."

These are all recipes prepared strictly according to the nutritionist, with some Chinese herbal ingredients added, mainly to nourish her body.

Jiang Hua patted his face arrogantly, "No one has ever been able to negotiate with me."

...

The Shen family's old house hosts a family banquet every week. To put it simply, it's a place where the family sits down together for a meal and chats about everyday things. Jiang Hua used to go there often when she was a child.

Every time she went there, they would bring up the story of her stealing food from the offerings and spilling it. People would laugh about it for a long time. But after she grew up, Jiang Hua didn't go there as often.

We made plans yesterday, so we'll go today.

But then they received a call from Yulong Bay. Bao'er had gone to see her at 10 a.m. Upon hearing this news, Pei Zhan was still in bed, but Jiang Hua was already up. Usually, she was the one who lingered in bed.

When Pei Zhan wasn't working, he would go for a run or exercise in his spare time. In the mornings, he would also handle company matters at home. When Pei Zhan came out of the study, he saw Jiang Hua hurriedly getting ready. "Aunt Xu, where's my dress?"

Pei Zhan, wearing a black striped nightgown, leaned against the door, arms crossed, his eyes filled with deep affection as he looked at her as she hurried along. "It's the fifth item in the second cabinet from the left in the walk-in closet. The coat is in another cabinet. The high heels are all in the transparent glass display case, and the jewelry is in the other walk-in closet next door. You can see it as soon as you open the door."

The walk-in closet at Yulong Bay was still too small, and it couldn't hold many of Jiang Hua's things. So, Jinsha Shallow Bay simply opened up the adjacent room, which she used to store some of her expensive jewelry.

Jiang Hua owns enough to open several luxury stores in a shopping mall.

When Jiang Hua went to get dressed, Pei Zhan had already chosen a pair of silver high heels with diamond-encrusted pointed toes for her. They were only five centimeters high, and he placed them next to Jiang Hua, who was looking in the mirror. "The Mu family will also be there tonight."

"If Mrs. Pei is ever bullied or a dispute arises, she should take action if she can."

"I'll come pick you up after the family dinner."

How do you know the Mu family will be going?

Pei Zhan: "I went to find out where Mrs. Pei is going in advance, also for Mrs. Pei's sake, in case any other accidents happen, so that you can be mentally prepared."

Jiang Hua, wearing dangling pearl earrings, asked, "Do you think I'd be at a disadvantage?"

"One should always be wary of others. Shen Yebai can tell the difference, but those old fogies in the Shen family can't. The head of the Mu family's foreign affairs headquarters is Mu Shiyue's maternal grandfather, and he's nearing retirement age. Even if Shen Yebai refuses again, how could the Shen family... let this opportunity slip by?"

"The Shen family isn't without members, why does it have to be him?"

Pei Zhan frowned slightly. "From what Mrs. Pei is saying, she seems a little disappointed?"

"Huahua, we can't get a divorce."

Jiang Hua felt a pang of discomfort at the mere mention of this. "Shut up! Did I tell you to say that?"

Pei Zhan chuckled softly and said, "If it's someone from the Mu family, why would they insist on having Shen Yebai?"

Do you really want him?

Jiang Hua could only think of one person, "Mu Shiyue?"

But when she went to find Shen Yebai in an attempt to protect herself, it was impossible to tell that she had any other purpose. Jiang Huazhen truly believed that she was someone who didn't compete or fight for anything.

Pei Zhan stood behind Jiang Hua, one hand on her waist, the other gently smoothing her long, wavy hair behind her shoulders. He casually remarked, "Tonight, tell Shen Yebai to be careful of the Mu family."

"Ming was rejected for marriage, yet she still went to the Shen family, which means... the Mu family was also out of options and was prepared to go all out."

"Don't say I didn't warn Mrs. Pei. If something goes wrong, Mrs. Pei will hold it against me again. This time... I really won't be able to explain myself."

Jiang Hua was deep in thought, still pondering Pei Zhan's words, when suddenly, she saw Pei Zhan doing something naughty to her...
