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

"What are you looking at? I'm going to hit you."

Zhou Yan was still sitting in the chair when Jiang Hua suddenly barged in, grabbed her collar, and lifted her up, saying, "It's no fun just hitting one side; symmetry is what makes it look good."

A crisp 'snap' sound rang out again in the conference room.

Jiang Hua slapped him again with her backhand.

The design intern who had always prevented Jiang Hua from entering stood at the door, and was completely dumbfounded when he saw this scene, covering his mouth in disbelief.

Jiang Hua seemed to have no reason to give up, so just as he was about to make another move, she was pulled away by a strong force.

Pei Zhan frowned and announced, "The meeting is adjourned for today."

After saying that, he pulled Jiang Hua to the CEO's office on the top floor.

"Let go! Let go of me! You country bumpkin, don't touch me!"

Pei Zhan was incredibly strong. She couldn't break free in the elevator, but she managed to shake him off once they entered the CEO's office.

"Have you had enough trouble?"

Jiang Hua was pampered and her body was very precious. Along the way, several red marks had already appeared on her wrists from being pinched.

Upon seeing the marks on her hands, the man's eyes darkened.

Pei Zhan's tone softened slightly, "Zhou Yan is a top designer in the jewelry design industry. Your actions today will affect the cooperation between Jiang's and her."

Jiang Hua noticed the watch in her hand was still ticking, so she looked away and coldly focused her gaze on Pei Zhan. "You mean the Jiang family will go bankrupt without her?"

“Pei Zhan, if Zhou Yan alone can bring down the Jiang family, it only shows your incompetence. It has nothing to do with anyone else. If the Jiang family falls apart, our marriage will end. At worst, we can divorce and I can remarry. There are plenty of people in the entire capital city who are capable of supporting a company. Without you, the Jiang family can still survive.”

Pei Zhan: "Miss Jiang, are you really that confident?"

Jiang Hua tossed her long hair behind her shoulder, her beautiful, slender, and curved eyebrows slightly raised. "Because I have the ability to do so. Do you?"

"Being beautiful is indeed your advantage, Miss Jiang. But good looks can't fill an empty stomach. Everyone gets old eventually. Why not calm down, study hard, and improve yourself? In the future, when you have the ability, perhaps you will be qualified to take over the Jiang family business from me."

Pei Zhan adopted a lecturing tone and began to lecture her.

Jiang Hua's anger burned even more intensely.

future?

Jiang Hua wasn't even sure if she had a future, so what right did he have to point fingers and criticize her? The thought that Pei Zhan was actually comparing her to Song Qingran made her feel even more disgusted.

To outsiders, Jiang Hua is nothing more than an ignorant and spoiled vase, but so what?

Whether I have the ability or not has nothing to do with you, and I don't care whether the Jiang family goes bankrupt or not.

After all, she was someone who wouldn't live much longer; even if she took over the Jiang family business, she wouldn't last more than a few years.

He knew all this, yet he used these words directly, right in front of her, piercing her heart.

Was she trying to tell her that she was inferior to Song Qingran?

Jiang Hua frowned, looking at him with disgust. For the first time, she looked at Pei Zhan with a serious gaze, and her voice became deep, "If it weren't for Dad, I wouldn't have been entangled with you until now."

"I don't care whether the Jiang family goes bankrupt or not. As long as Dad is alive, I won't divorce you. But tell your people not to try to make a living in front of me."

“Go tell Zhou Yan that from now on, I don’t want to see her at the company.”

"Either let her resign, or let her leave the capital."

Jiang Hua turned around, stopped at the doorway, and looked at me sideways. "If you touch me again, I'll chop off your hand."

She wasn't joking; Jiang Hua was capable of doing something like that.

"Since we've already slept together, I can't let myself be taken advantage of. I want the apartment in the Garden Garden."

Pei Zhan: "Okay."

Pei Zhan thought she wanted the Jinsha Shallow Bay set.

That apartment was originally bought temporarily as a wedding home for Jiang Hua. If she wanted it, Pei Zhan wouldn't refuse her.

"I will have Xiang Nan transferred to your name."

Jiang Hua did not respond and left without looking back.

Pei Zhan's eyes narrowed.

At this moment, Zuo Xiangnan was standing outside the office door. Seeing the person leaving, he greeted her, "Take care, Miss."

Jiang Hua snorted coldly, "Lackey!"

Zuo Xiangnan's initial impression of Jiang Hua was indeed not very good, and it remains so now.

It has all the appearance but no substance.

After returning to Yulong Bay, Jiang Hua angrily threw her bag down, making a loud noise.

Hearing the commotion, Xu Ma hurried out and saw the person returning. "Miss, weren't you with Mr. Pei last night? Why did you come back alone?"

Jiang Hua felt a lump in her throat, pointed at the door, and said angrily, "From now on, put up a sign at the main gate that says, 'Pei Zhan and dogs are not allowed to enter.'"

Aunt Xu: "You... Miss, you and Mr. Pei had another argument?"

Jiang Hua, with a cold face, went upstairs without saying a word. Back in her room, she opened the medicine bottle, took a sip of the medicine, and only felt a little better after the tightness in her chest subsided.

As soon as Jiang Hua arrived at her room, Jiang Weiguo, who was fishing in the artificial lake, received a call from his company.

After learning the whole story, Jiang Weiguo still chose to stand on Jiang Hua's side, "...I will teach her a lesson for bullying her classmates when she comes back. But I will absolutely not let anyone who dares to lay a hand on Hua Hua live."

“Zhou Yan is indeed a talented person and has brought a lot of revenue to the company. But my daughter has never suffered any grievances since she was a child. This is the consequence of hitting her. If Huahua doesn’t want to keep her, then let her leave the company and give her the full amount of the termination fee according to the contract.”

Pei Zhan: "I understand, Chairman Jiang."

Zuo Xiangnan overheard the phone conversation and, after the call ended, said, "President Pei, are you really going to agree to Director Zhou's resignation? She's a top designer we finally managed to hire. If we lose her and she goes to a rival company, it will be a huge loss for Jiang's. Calculated, this year's sales will likely lose around one billion."

Pei Zhan said, "Since Chairman Jiang has spoken, let's do as he says."

Zuo Xiangnan frowned and said with dissatisfaction, "I don't know how Jiang's company was able to operate before President Pei was here. They all seem clueless. When the company suffers losses, they will blame President Pei for it."

"It's a thankless task."

Pei Zhan glanced at the resignation letter from the HR department, picked up his pen, and left a signature, saying, "Complete the household registration process at Huayuan as soon as possible."

After Zhou Yan was slapped twice by Jiang Hua, she immediately resigned. The HR department had already exceeded its authority and could only pass this hot potato to Pei Zhan.

When Zhou Yan received her resignation letter and saw the signature in her hand, she froze for a moment…
