I accidentally messed with a wealthy family, and my blind date was the CEO.

Pei Jingchuan frowned when he heard Yan Zeqing's voice.

He did not respond, but one could feel anxiety and confusion from Yan Zeqing's tone.

There was a hint of indifference on Pei Jingchuan's face. He was unhappy that a strange man contacted Jiang Yuzhu so frequently.

Yan Zeqing felt the silence on the other side of the phone, but he didn't realize that it was Pei Jingchuan who was answering.

He began to speak with a teasing tone, trying to lighten the atmosphere: "Dr. Jiang, are you angry with me for not speaking like this? I just want to say thank you, you don't have to be so shy."

On the other end of the phone, Pei Jingchuan listened to Yan Zeqing's words, and the indifference on his face became more and more obvious. The dissatisfaction in his heart gradually accumulated, but he still remained silent, unwilling to talk to Yan Zeqing.

A few minutes passed, and Yan Zeqing felt something was wrong and began to wonder if this was really Jiang Yuzhu's call. His voice gradually turned into doubt: "Hey, are you really Dr. Jiang Yuzhu? Why haven't you spoken?"

Pei Jingchuan's voice came calmly: "I am Jiang Yuzhu's husband. Who are you?" There was an unquestionable authority in his voice.

Yan Zeqing was stunned for a moment when he heard this answer. He didn't expect that the other end of the phone was Jiang Yuzhu's husband.

His heartbeat accelerated, and he suddenly felt an indescribable embarrassment.

Yan Zeqing quickly hung up the phone. On the other end of the phone, Pei Jingchuan's face still maintained a cold expression, and his eyes revealed his displeasure at this sudden interference.

After Yan Zeqing hung up the phone, he lay on the hospital bed with complicated emotions. He realized that he might have been too impulsive in trying to contact Jiang Yuzhu, without considering the possible consequences. He closed his eyes and sighed deeply, feeling an embarrassment he had never felt before.

Pei Jingchuan returned to the meeting, but now his expression became obviously more grim. His brows were furrowed, and his whole person was enveloped in an unspoken aura of indifference. Participants across the screen, including Pei Yanqing, could feel the sudden change in Pei Jingchuan's atmosphere.

Pei Yanqing was very sensitive to his emotional changes. He carefully observed Pei Jingchuan during the video conference, trying to find the right time to ask.

"Brother, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong?" Pei Yanqing's voice revealed concern, but at the same time he was also a little cautious.

Pei Jingchuan did not answer immediately, his eyes were still focused on the issues of the meeting. His tone was serious, and his discussion of the meeting content was still accurate, but his inner displeasure could be seen from his frowning from time to time.

Pei Yanqing felt Pei Jingchuan's silence and did not dare to ask any more questions. He knew that Pei Jingchuan was not a person who revealed his emotions casually, especially in a formal workplace. Pei Yanqing could only wait quietly, hoping that he would have a chance to understand Pei Jingchuan's changes in mood after the meeting.

As the meeting came to an end, Pei Jingchuan's expression remained unchanged, but his professionalism allowed him to remain rational and guide the meeting efficiently.

Pei Yanqing felt worried when he saw that Pei Jingchuan was still in a low mood. He quietly took out his mobile phone from under the table and carefully sent a text message to Meng Ling. He knew that Mengling and Jiang Yuzhu were together, and hoped to learn about Pei Jingchuan's situation through them.

At this time, Meng Ling, who was shopping, heard the beep on her cell phone and hurriedly checked the message. She looked a little anxious and worried when she saw the text message from Pei Yanqing, asking about Pei Jingchuan's situation.

Mengling frowned slightly and felt a little confused, but she still decided to tell Jiang Yuzhu about the situation. She walked to Jiang Yuzhu and said softly: "Sister Yuzhu, Yan Qing sent a message asking why I was angry. It seems that I am not in a good mood."

After hearing Meng Ling's words, Jiang Yuzhu was also curious and didn't understand why Pei Jingchuan was suddenly angry. She planned to have a good talk with Pei Jingchuan when she went back to understand the situation.

After shopping, Jiang Yuzhu and Mengling returned to the parking lot and found Pei Jingchuan still sitting in the car. There was obvious indifference on his face, which was very different from the gentleness in the past. After the two got in the car, the atmosphere became a little heavy.

Pei Jingchuan didn't say much, and simply asked them to get in the car. His expression was still cold, and he seemed to be worried. The atmosphere in the car became awkward, and Meng Ling and Jiang Yuzhu exchanged puzzled looks.

Pei Jingchuan concentrated on driving and sent Meng Ling home first. Before getting out of the car, Mengling cast a worried look at Jiang Yuzhu, and then said goodbye to Pei Jingchuan and Jiang Yuzhu.

After Mengling left, only Pei Jingchuan and Jiang Yuzhu were left in the car.

The atmosphere in the car was still heavy, and Jiang Yuzhu felt that Pei Jingchuan's mood had not eased. She asked again: "Jingchuan, what happened?" Her voice was full of worry.

Pei Jingchuan remained silent while driving the car, unwilling to reveal any emotions. Jiang Yuzhu looked at him and felt helpless. She suddenly remembered that her mobile phone might still be in the car, so she started looking around.

Finally, Jiang Yuzhu found his mobile phone on the car seat. She opened her phone and was shocked to see nearly a hundred missed calls, showing a steady stream of call attempts. Her brows furrowed, indicating she was speechless.

Facing Pei Jingchuan's silence, Jiang Yuzhu took a deep breath and began to explain: "This number is a patient named Yan Zeqing. He has been pestering me recently, but I ignored him."

A trace of suspicion flashed in Pei Jingchuan's eyes. He glanced sideways at her, appearing a little doubtful. Jiang Yuzhu saw his reaction and knew that he had to explain it in a more direct way.

She opened her phone, found Yan Zeqing's number, and dialed the number resolutely.

After the call was connected, Jiang Yuzhu's voice was full of anger, which was in sharp contrast to her usual calm attitude. "Mr. Yan Zeqing, I don't know why you keep disturbing me, but please understand that such behavior is completely unacceptable. If you still want to ensure that your second treatment course goes smoothly, you'd better Stop this harassment immediately. Otherwise, I cannot guarantee the effectiveness of your treatment."

Yan Zeqing on the other end of the phone looked extremely panicked when he heard these words. He didn't expect Jiang Yuzhu to respond so forcefully, nor did he expect that she would use his treatment as a warning. "Dr. Jiang, I'm sorry, I...I won't disturb you anymore." His voice trembled, obviously frightened.

Jiang Yuzhu responded coldly: "Remember your words." Then hung up the phone.

Pei Jingchuan listened to the whole process, his eyes gradually changing from suspicion to trust. He looked at Jiang Yuzhu, a trace of apology flashed in his eyes. He said softly: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't doubt you."
