Jiang Hua's point reminded Jiang Weiguo that he was also a cautious person and would not sign a contract of dubious origin for such a large and tempting amount.

The Huo family, the Shengshi Group, is an extremely mysterious family in the capital. They own their own business empire. However, in recent years, there have been rumors that the entire Huo family has immigrated abroad. As for the reason, no one knows. Only a few key members are left to manage the Huo family's companies that remain in China.

All the powerful families in the capital combined do not have the same influence as the Shengshi Group. The combined assets and real estate of all its companies are enormous and immeasurable. If the Huo family had not gradually withdrawn from the capital in earlier years, the capital would be under their control today.

Let alone the Jiang family, they're not even worth mentioning in the eyes of the Huo family.

Jiang Weiguo took a sip of tea. “Huahua’s reminder is not without reason. Thirty billion… This is indeed a considerable investment for the Jiang family, and it can bring huge prospects to the Jiang family. However, Shengshi Group does not want a single share of the Jiang family, nor does it want to gain any profit from it. This is not the Huo family that I know.”

"The money the Jiang family has earned over the years is more than enough. With your business acumen, you can provide Huahua with a comfortable life in the future. She doesn't usually buy much; it's just bags, jewelry, clothes, and shoes. As long as the money is enough, that's fine."

"I will take a closer look at this contract later. If possible, I would like to meet with the head of the Huo family's marketing department."

Pei Zhan's gaze kept falling on the kitchen. Jiang Hua stood in front of the refrigerator, took an ice cream out of the freezer, and ate a few bites with a spoon. "Well, I will try to contact them. If possible, we can find another opportunity to talk in detail about the joint investment."

"That's enough for today. I'm going fishing. It's still lunch break, so you can keep her company." With that, Jiang Weiguo picked up the straw hat on the table, stood up, put it on, walked to the door, picked up a bucket, grabbed a fishing rod, and went out.

Seeing Jiang Hua's little movements, Xu Ma quickly stepped forward and took the things from her hands, "Miss, you can't eat this right now, so you won't feel uncomfortable again."

"Aunt Xu, go wash some fruit, I want to eat cherries."

"Good lady."

Jiang Hua turned around and walked to the sofa, ignoring the man sitting opposite her. She kicked off her shoes and lay down on the sofa, lying down very carefully, as if afraid of aggravating her wound. She picked up the remote control on the table and changed the TV program, saying, "Move aside, you're blocking the way."

Throughout the entire conversation, Jiang Hua didn't glance at him once; even when she was speaking, her eyes were fixed on the television.

He didn't speak, and Jiang Hua ignored her. After a while, seeing that he was still sitting motionless in front of the TV, blocking the screen, she couldn't help but look at him, frowning, "Are you deaf or hard of hearing? Can't you hear what I'm saying?"

"You country bumpkin, you're blocking my TV."

Hearing the displeased sounds, which seemed like they were about to argue again, Xu Ma quickly came out with cherries. "Miss, Young Master Pei has been taking care of you all this time and hasn't had a proper rest. Please speak your mind properly."

"Look, this is chestnut cake that your son-in-law bought from a stall in the west of the city. It's still hot, so hurry up and try it."

“I didn’t buy this from an outsider, so who knows if he drugged it?” She reached out and ate a cherry, the bright red juice dripping down. Xu Ma handed her a tissue and the pit that Jiang Hua had spat out.

"When do you plan to go back to school?" Pei Zhan asked her.

Jiang Hua leaned back on the sofa, a smile appearing in her eyes. "Aren't you afraid I'll bully your sweetheart there, since you're in such a hurry to send me back to school?"

He neither admitted nor denied having the person he loved...

Xu Ma went to the kitchen to prepare vegetables and didn't hear what Jiang Hua said.

"The group postponed the finals; we've been waiting for you."

"I've already said I'm not interested in that stupid competition. First place is fine with your Song Qingran. Don't bother me with this every day. Can't you see I'm still injured? If you're in such a hurry, why don't you just put her in the company? Since when did it become your business to consider me?" Pei Zhan didn't know what he said that touched Jiang Hua's fuse, and she exploded, her eyes full of displeasure.

“Song Qingran is quite capable. She can work like a slave for the Jiang family and generate revenue for the Jiang Corporation. I have no objection to that. Anyway… as long as an employee can bring benefits to the company, I don’t mind.”

“Perfect, let her stay by your side. It would be great if you two could see each other every day,” she said nonchalantly.

Jiang Hua flipped through several channels but couldn't find anything she wanted to watch, and instantly became extremely bored. Saying this, she stood up, put on her shoes, and walked over to Pei Zhan, looking down at him. She then bent down and fed him a cherry, saying, "Consider this my reward for you..."

Pei Zhan lowered his eyes and looked at her neatly trimmed fingernails, which were coated with nail polish, making them a pleasing sight to behold.

He hesitated, opened his mouth slightly, and ate.

Jiang Hua smiled with satisfaction, "It's a loss for the Jiang family that the Jiang family doesn't have people as capable as you and Song Qingran. If you don't want a divorce, that's fine with me. Then you can continue to stay in the Jiang family and make money for them."

"We... each do our own thing."

Jiang Hua's posture was like a hunter training his hound...

After saying this, Jiang Hua turned and walked towards the door, ignoring the deep, dark gaze of the man behind her.

Just as Pei Zhan was about to leave, several black Hongqi sedans stopped at the entrance of Yulong Bay. Several well-trained men in black suits got out of the cars, opened the trunks, and carried in some gift boxes.

Aunt Xu hurriedly went to greet him, "Mr. Zhou, what brings you here? The master is still fishing, I'll call him right away."

Mr. Zhou is the Shen family's housekeeper.

Mr. Zhou: "No need. I heard that Miss Jiang was injured. These nourishing supplements were brought by the young master at his request. This is a thousand-year-old blood ginseng, and these are also included. I hope Miss Jiang can recover as soon as possible."

Aunt Xu: "Young Master Shen is too kind. I will definitely tell the master to go and pay a visit with the eldest young master."

Mr. Zhou: "I'm busy with other matters, so I won't stay any longer. By the way... please make sure to tell Mr. Jiang that the Shen family will do everything they can to help with the murderer's case, so that Miss Jiang can focus on recovering."

The Shen family left their belongings and departed without lingering.

"I never expected Young Master Shen to treat Miss so well," Xu Ma muttered. "Young Master Pei, are you leaving already?"

Pei Zhan stood up and left without looking to the side, exuding an aura of displeasure that was difficult for others to detect.

Jiang Hua was lying on a deck chair by the artificial lake, wearing sunglasses, when she suddenly sneezed.
