After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yuzhu's mood seemed to be pulled to two extremes.

After packing her things, she picked up her handbag and a box of documents and walked firmly to the door. Qin Chenkai was already standing there respectfully, waiting for her.

In the car, the atmosphere was slightly silent. Qin Chenkai was driving the car, while Jiang Yuzhu was quietly looking at the scenery outside the window, with thousands of thoughts intertwined in his heart.

"Dr. Jiang, Jingchuan always asked me to remind you that there is an important meeting tomorrow and he hopes you can attend."

Qin Chenkai broke the silence and reminded her gently.

She nodded slightly, although she was still a little panicked, but she knew that life had to go on.

"Dr. Jiang, is everything on the phone okay?" Qin Chenkai asked with concern.

"It's okay, Chen Kai, it's just some family matters." Jiang Yuzhu responded softly, her eyes still seemed a little worried, but she quickly changed the subject, "Let's go."

In the car, the two did not speak immediately. The scenery outside the car window was flowing, accompanied by brisk music.

"I heard that you decided to open a medical research institute?" Qin Chenkai broke the silence and tried to stir up the topic.

Jiang Yuzhu smiled and said, "Yes, this is my dream all along."

"It sounds not easy, but I believe you can do it." Qin Chenkai said sincerely.

Qin Chenkai took out a document from the car and said to her: "This is the material for President Jingchuan's meeting tomorrow. He asked me to give it to you in advance."

She took the file, nodded slightly, and expressed her gratitude.

"Then I'll go back to the company first. If you need anything, just call." Qin Chenkai said with a smile. His smile was always so gentle and polite.

She nodded, "Chen Kai, thank you for your hard work."

Qin Chenkai stepped into the car and waved to her, and then the car gradually disappeared around the corner of the street.

Jiang Yuzhu stood there, watching him leave, then slowly turned around and walked towards the restaurant.

At the door of the restaurant was a waiter in a neat suit. When he saw her approaching, he opened the door for her with a smile.

"Welcome, do you have a reservation?" the waiter asked respectfully.

Jiang Yuzhu looked a little embarrassed, "No, but I have friends inside."

"Sorry, we are a high-end restaurant here, and reservations are generally required." The waiter said expressionlessly.

Jiang Yuzhu explained patiently: "I am the guest reserved by Mr. Pei Jingchuan. You can check the list."

The waiter obviously didn't believe it. She looked at Jiang Yuzhu and sneered: "Looking at your appearance, you don't look like a guest of ours. Mr. Pei is our regular customer. Why haven't I seen you?"

Jiang Yuzhu took a deep breath and tried his best to stay calm: "Can I call him to confirm?"

The waiter seemed to be even more impatient. Many girls had said disdainfully: "You guys are so shameless. Do you think you can get in like this?"

Jiang Yuzhu's expression remained calm, a faint sneer appeared on her delicate face.

She said clearly and forcefully: "I am Mr. Pei's wife. I don't know if this status is enough for me to enter."

The two waitresses at the front desk looked a little dazed for a moment, and then they looked at each other and seemed to think Jiang Yuzhu's words were too ridiculous.

One of the waitresses covered her mouth and chuckled, while the other put on a well-informed look and said coldly: "Pei's wife? Oh, I really saw it today. Pei's wife also needs to come in person. Prove your identity."

Another waitress also teased: "Yeah, it's really interesting. Mrs. Pei still needs to prove her identity to a small clerk like us."

The waiter sneered and said to Jiang Yuzhu unceremoniously: "Mrs. Pei? You are so good at joking! How can Mrs. Pei be dressed so shabbily?"

When the girls at the front desk on both sides heard this, they couldn't help laughing: "Mrs. Pei, it's really funny. The reasons for wanting to enter a high-end restaurant are becoming more and more novel these days."

Although Jiang Yuzhu was angry, she did not let herself lose her composure.

She stood there calmly, with a look of disdain in her eyes.

"If you don't believe it, you can call Mr. Pei to verify."

Jiang Yuzhu remained calm and polite, but his tone revealed an inviolable dignity.

The waiter and the girl at the front desk looked at each other and saw the uneasiness in each other's eyes.

They also realized that if the person in front of them was really Mrs. Pei, then they were totally wrong.

However, they still insisted on their judgment. One of the girls at the front desk deliberately said sarcastically: "Then please call, we will wait here to watch the show."

Jiang Yuzhu took a deep breath, then took out his mobile phone and dialed Pei Jingchuan's number.

During her call, her hands didn't tremble at all and she appeared very calm.

Soon, Pei Jingchuan's familiar voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hey, Yu Zhu, what's wrong?"

Jiang Yuzhu tried his best to stay calm: "I'm at the door of the restaurant now, but they won't let me in."

Pei Jingchuan on the other end of the phone was obviously stunned for a moment, and then there was a clear anger in his voice:

"Just wait, I'll be right over."

Pei Jingchuan's speed was much faster than Jiang Yuzhu imagined.

Soon, his hurried figure appeared at the door of the restaurant.

His frown and coat fluttering in the wind can be seen from a distance, giving people a huge sense of oppression.

Pei Jingchuan walked over with a gloomy expression.

The usual gentleness on his face was gone, replaced by eyes like two sharp swords, staring straight at the two waitresses at the front desk.

The two front desk waitresses were so pierced by the cold gaze that they almost didn't dare to look up. Their ridicule and arrogance had disappeared, replaced by panic and regret in their hearts.

Seeing this, Jiang Yuzhu shook his head slightly towards Pei Jingchuan, as if to tell him that this was not necessary.

Pei Jingchuan glanced at the two waitresses coldly, and his voice was low and full of majesty: "This is my wife, Jiang Yuzhu, Mrs. Pei. Is this how you treat my wife?"

The two front desk waitresses looked even paler. They had completely lost their previous arrogance at this moment.

One of the waitresses stammered:

"Pei...Mr. Pei, we...we don't know..."

Another waitress also quickly apologized: "Mr. Pei, I'm really sorry. We really didn't know she was..."

Pei Jingchuan interrupted her, his voice full of coldness: "You don't know? Or what do you think Mrs. Pei should do?"

At this time, there was no color on the faces of the two front desk waitresses. They lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.

Pei Jingchuan turned to Jiang Yuzhu, who was still standing aside, and his voice suddenly became much gentler: "Yuzhu, I'm sorry for making you feel wronged."

Jiang Yuzhu smiled slightly and shook his head: "It doesn't matter, I know who I am."
