Yet, when facing Si Fuqing, it was he who felt uneasy.

“Miss Si, my wife has troubled you greatly.” Pei Yan bowed deeply. “I know it’s too late to apologize now, but I still want to say this—I sincerely thank you for saving my useless son.”

Pei Mengzhi reacted quickly. “Dad! How can you use ‘troubled’ to describe Mom? That’s too much!”

Recently, his mother had been displeased with him about everything, so he hoped to shift some of the attention onto his dad.

“Go study!” Madam Pei snapped. “The word ‘troubled’ in this context means your dad is referring to himself! How could I have given birth to such a fool whose only redeeming feature is his looks?!”

Pei Mengzhi: “…”

Crap, the distraction failed, and now he was in even bigger trouble.

Pei Yan looked a little embarrassed and shot Pei Mengzhi a glare before having Madam Pei present a finely crafted rosewood box.

“Miss Si, this is an ancient jade heirloom of our family.” Pei Yan spoke with great respect. “You saved Mengzhi, so please accept this.”

“No wonder,” Si Fuqing raised an eyebrow. “I was wondering how your family managed to hold on despite being in such a deadly predicament. Your ancestors must have had some skill to find such a jade.”

Pei Mengzhi stared at the cold jade pieces for a long time, but he truly couldn’t see what was so special about them.

“Miss Si is not a shallow person, so offering mere money would be an insult.” Pei Yan expressed his deep admiration. “I could never hope to match Miss Si’s noble character.”

Si Fuqing: “…”

No, she was actually quite materialistic and loved money.

“I already received five million for saving your son, so let’s consider this jade as payment for assisting your family.” Si Fuqing said calmly. “Madam Pei has already apologized to me online, so I won’t hold a grudge. That feng shui arrangement of yours does influence people’s temperaments.”

Madam Pei let out a sigh of relief. “Thank you, Miss Si!”

At that moment, a phone rang, and Pei Yan answered.

As soon as he finished listening, his expression changed. “What? Alright, I understand. I’ll be there right away.”

Madam Pei also became anxious. “What happened?”

“The company is completely unable to operate.” Pei Yan took a deep breath. “Miss Si, you’re truly impressive.”

Sure enough, in less than five days, the Pei family’s company had collapsed.

“The Pei family is holding an internal meeting.” Pei Yan pressed his lips together. “They’re likely going to remove me as chairman and hold a re-election. We need to go immediately.”

“They used such dirty tactics against us, and they still have the nerve to remove you?” Madam Pei was furious. “Let’s go!”

Just as the two were about to bid farewell to Si Fuqing, they saw her raise her head. “Wait, I want to take a look.”

Twenty minutes later, the four of them arrived at the Pei Group’s headquarters.

Pei Mengzhi was about to follow them inside but was stopped.

“What do you think you’re doing?” Madam Pei glared at him. “Wait outside. There’s a café over there—go have a drink and don’t cause trouble.”

Pei Mengzhi: “…”

Fine, he was used to it.

Eighteenth floor.

The conference room was already packed.

As Pei Yan entered, all eyes immediately turned to him.

“Pei Yan, you’ve finally returned to the country.” An elderly man spoke with a cold and mocking tone. “The company has already collapsed here, yet you still have the leisure to do business abroad.”

Pei Yan smiled calmly. “Uncle Qi.”

“Big Brother, Sister-in-law, since when did the Pei family’s internal meetings allow a young girl to attend?” Pei Xu frowned as he spotted Si Fuqing. “Even if she’s the daughter-in-law you favor, she still isn’t qualified to be here for such an important meeting!”

Pei Yan’s expression changed. “Pei Xu, watch your words! Don’t offend people!”

Daughter-in-law?

Would he even dare?

“What, who is she? Why are you so nervous, Big Brother?” Pei Xu sneered lightly. “Do I offend someone? Who is she that I should be afraid of?”

“Security! Get over here and kick out anyone unrelated!”

Si Fuqing sat down, her gaze calm and steady, speaking unhurriedly. “I am Si Fuqing.”
