Pei Jingchuan listened to Jiang Yuzhu's explanation, his expression softened slightly, but he still maintained a light indifference.

His voice was low: "I know."

Jiang Yuzhu felt a little confused and didn't understand why Pei Jingchuan still looked like this.

She asked softly: "Then why are you still angry?"

Pei Jingchuan was silent for a moment, looking deeply at Jiang Yuzhu, and finally said lightly: "It's nothing, I'm just in a bad mood."

Jiang Yuzhu looked at Pei Jingchuan, knowing in her heart that there were deeper emotions hidden in his words, but she also knew that Pei Jingchuan was unwilling to say more at the moment. She sighed slightly and decided not to ask further questions so as not to aggravate Pei Jingchuan's unhappiness.

Jiang Yuzhu and Pei Jingchuan were sitting on the sofa in the corner, and the atmosphere gradually became relaxed. Pei Jingchuan suddenly asked: "That Yan Zeqing has been pestering you, how did you deal with it?"

Jiang Yuzhu frowned slightly, looking a little displeased: "I really hate him being like that. He never knows how to keep his distance every time." There was a trace of annoyance in her tone.

Pei Jingchuan turned his eyes to the venue and happened to see Yan Zeqing preparing to walk towards them again. Pei Jingchuan's eyes immediately turned cold and he glared directly at Yan Zeqing. Yan Zeqing felt Pei Jingchuan's cold gaze, and was so frightened that he quickly turned around, ran to the side, and looked at this side aggrievedly.

When Jiang Yuzhu saw this scene, a smile appeared on her lips involuntarily, and her mood improved significantly. "It seems that you are quite intimidating." She said softly to Pei Jingchuan.

When Pei Jingchuan heard Jiang Yuzhu's words, a rare smile appeared on his lips. His voice was still calm: "I don't like to see others disturbing you."

Jiang Yuzhu and Pei Jingchuan were sitting on the sofa in the corner, and the atmosphere gradually became more relaxed. Although there was not much dialogue between the two, it seemed that each other's thoughts had been conveyed.

After a while, Song Yanghao walked over slowly. His eyes were originally smiling, wanting to chat with Jiang Yuzhu, but when he saw Pei Jingchuan sitting next to Jiang Yuzhu, the smile on his face disappeared instantly.

Song Yanghao's tone was a bit displeased and he said directly to Pei Jingchuan: "Mr. Pei, I remember you said before that you would not come to my party. Why are you here again now?"

Pei Jingchuan looked up at Song Yanghao, his expression still cold.

Jiang Yuzhu noticed the tension between the two. She frowned slightly, feeling a little worried in her heart. She tried to lighten the atmosphere and interjected softly: "Mr. Song, Jingchuan just decided to come over temporarily. We are all your guests, aren't we?"

Pei Jingchuan stared at Song Yanghao sharply, and his voice was low: "I can come when I want to, and I can't come if I don't want to. This is my freedom,"

Song Yanghao's face changed slightly, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes. His voice was filled with suppressed anger: "Mr. Pei, I hope you can maintain some respect at my birthday party. If you do any inappropriate behavior, I will not hesitate to ask you to leave."

Jiang Yuzhu looked at the tense confrontation between the two and felt a little uneasy in his heart. She whispered to Pei Jingchuan: "Jingchuan, we are here to enjoy the party, not to cause unhappiness."

Pei Jingchuan glanced at Jiang Yuzhu, with a hint of softness in his eyes. He nodded, took a deep breath, and tried to calm down his emotions.

Seeing this, Song Yanghao calmed down his emotions a little. He nodded to Jiang Yuzhu and apologized: "Dr. Jiang, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have lost my temper in front of you. I'll go and entertain other guests first."

After saying that, Song Yanghao turned around and left, busy greeting other guests. His back looked a little stiff, and it was obvious that the displeasure in his heart had not completely dissipated.

After Song Yanghao left, the atmosphere between Jiang Yuzhu and Pei Jingchuan became slightly relaxed. Soon, Yan Zeqing appeared in their sight again. His steps seemed a little hesitant, but he finally plucked up the courage and walked over.

Yan Zeqing stood in front of Jiang Yuzhu, looking a little nervous. He obviously still remembered Jiang Yuzhu's previous warning. He spoke softly: "Dr. Jiang, I... I just want to ask about my treatment."

Jiang Yuzhu noticed the change in Yan Zeqing's attitude, and her tone became calmer: "Mr. Yan, if it is about treatment, you can see me in the hospital tomorrow. We are all here to attend the party today, so relax first. "

Yan Zeqing showed a look of relief on his face: "Okay, Dr. Jiang, I'll go back first, you guys have fun." He nodded politely, then turned and left.

Jiang Yuzhu nodded and looked at Yan Zeqing's leaving figure, feeling a little relieved in his heart.

As the atmosphere in the venue gradually heated up, Song Yanghao's birthday party officially began. The lights were dimmed slightly to focus on the ornately decorated stage. Song Yanghao walked onto the stage with a gentle smile on his face and began to address the guests present.

Jiang Yuzhu sat in the corner and listened quietly to Song Yanghao's speech. His voice echoed in the venue, his words sincere and passionate, obviously carefully prepared.

Pei Jingchuan sat next to Jiang Yuzhu, obviously not very interested in Song Yanghao's speech. His eyes were wandering around, as if looking for an excuse to escape. Suddenly, his phone vibrated slightly. Pei Jingchuan seized this opportunity, picked up his cell phone, and pretended that he had an important call that needed to be answered.

"I have a phone call. Let's go first." Pei Jingchuan said to Jiang Yuzhu, then stood up and walked to one side of the venue. His steps were deliberately slowed down, and he looked a little at a loss.

Jiang Yuzhu nodded slightly to indicate understanding. Her eyes followed Pei Jingchuan's back, and an unknown emotion surged in her heart. She knew that Pei Jingchuan just wanted to escape Song Yanghao's speech, but she didn't want to interfere too much.

Pei Jingchuan found a quieter corner and pretended to be talking on the phone. His eyes looked towards the stage and Jiang Yuzhu from time to time, as if waiting for something. His expression was still cold, but there seemed to be deep thoughts hidden under the cold surface.

On the stage, Song Yanghao's voice was gentle, and his speech was full of thanks and welcome. He thanked each guest present one by one and expressed how much he valued their arrival. His words not only revealed his cherishment of his friends, but also revealed his expectations for the future.

The atmosphere in the venue was infected by Song Yanghao's sincerity, and the guests responded to his thanks one after another with constant applause. The lights flow slowly on the stage, creating a warm and harmonious atmosphere.

During the break between Song Yanghao's speech, a fashionably dressed lady walked briskly towards Jiang Yuzhu. Her temperament was elegant but a little cunning. Born into an influential clique. She is well-known in social circles for her unique style and background.

Jiang Yuzhu recognized her as Shen Nian's best friend and had heard a lot of famous things about her. He saw her following Shen Nian on a certain occasion last time. According to Jiang Yuzhu's impression of Shen Nian, she was not interested in this best friend.

Lin Zi smiled and said to Jiang Yuzhu: "I didn't expect to meet you here. What a coincidence. Did you come alone?"
