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

She couldn't help but feel a glimmer of hope in her heart, and the despair in her eyes gradually turned into eagerness.

Shen Nian looked even more uneasy under Pei Jingchuan's cold gaze, but she knew that this was her only chance.

She took a deep breath and tried to make her voice sound more stable and sincere.

"Jingchuan, the fact is... our company has encountered a serious crisis recently." Shen Nian's voice was low, trying to conceal her inner anxiety. There was a hint of despair in her eyes, but at the same time there was also a desire for help.

"My father's company was emptied out by some people with ill intentions. Now, there is a huge financial gap within the company." Shen Nian's words were choked, and her tears fell quietly, revealing the depths of her heart. helpless.

Her hands gently caressed each other, looking a little at a loss: "We really don't know what to do. If this hole cannot be filled as soon as possible, the company may be in danger of bankruptcy."

Shen Nian's eyes looked at Pei Jingchuan pleadingly, and his voice was full of despair: "Jingchuan, I know I am not qualified to beg you, but now, I really have no choice. Please help us, even a little bit Help... we would all be grateful.”

Her tears kept falling, but her eyes were always locked on Pei Jingchuan, as if waiting for his response, hoping to see a glimmer of warmth under his cold appearance.

Pei Jingchuan's sneer slowly emerged after Shen Nian finished speaking, full of disdain. His eyes were still cold, as if they could penetrate Shen Nian's heart.

Shen Nian felt a sense of inexplicable fear under Pei Jingchuan's unusual reaction.

A trace of confusion flashed in her eyes, and she asked with a trembling voice: "Jingchuan, why are you laughing? You are like this...I am a little scared."

Pei Jingchuan still had that sneer on his face, and the disdain in his eyes was even more obvious.

Just when he was about to respond to Shen Nian, there was a gentle knock on the door outside.

His expression turned serious in an instant, and he looked away from Shen Nian and turned towards the door.

His eyes returned to their usual indifference.

"Come in." Pei Jingchuan's voice was low and firm, and he seemed to be unable to refuse.

The door was pushed open, and the assistant walked in cautiously, with a hint of nervousness in his expression.

The assistant clearly knew that an important conversation was taking place in Pei Jingchuan's office.

The assistant quickly reported: "Mr. Pei, Mr. Song Yanghao has agreed to the video call request, and everything is ready."

There was no fluctuation in Pei Jingchuan's eyes. He waved his hand, indicating to his assistant to connect to the video immediately. "Put it through." His voice was still calm, but it revealed an unquestionable authority.

The assistant nodded lightly, quickly operated the phone, and skillfully initiated a video call. Soon, Song Yanghao's face was displayed on the screen.

His eyes showed a certain seriousness when he saw Pei Jingchuan, but then, when he noticed Jiang Yuzhu next to the screen, his expression became obviously more relaxed, and he even smiled.

"Dr. Jiang, I didn't expect you to be here." Song Yanghao's voice through the video was filled with a hint of unconcealable joy, especially when he mentioned Jiang Yuzhu's name, his tone unconsciously became a little gentle.

Although Jiang Yuzhu had been focusing on his mobile phone, when he heard Song Yanghao's voice, he raised his head and smiled politely at the screen: "Hello, Mr. Song."

Song Yanghao's eyes seemed to linger on Jiang Yuzhu for a moment, and then turned to Pei Jingchuan.

Although his attitude was still respectful, the joy in his eyes was difficult to conceal.

Pei Jingchuan's eyes fell directly on Song Yanghao's face. His voice was still calm, but there was a coldness in it: "Mr. Song, you should already know the current situation of the Shen family's company. I want to know what you think about it. What do you know about the matter?"

Song Yanghao's expression changed slightly when he heard Pei Jingchuan's question. His brows wrinkled slightly, but he quickly regained his composure.

There was a hint of cunning in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, with a sense of confidence: "Of course, in fact, I arranged this situation."

When Shen Nian heard Song Yanghao's confession, her face instantly turned pale, and anger was intertwined in her expression.

Her hands were clenched into fists and her eyes were blazing with rage.

"How could you do this!" Shen Nian's voice raised a few pitches, full of unwillingness.

Her eyes were like shooting rockets, aimed directly at Song Yanghao on the screen.

Song Yanghao remained calm as usual, with a contemptuous smile on his face.

His eyes were full of indifference, turning a blind eye to Shen Nian's anger.

"Ms. Shen, this is just a routine business operation. Your company just happened to become a victim." Song Yanghao's tone was full of indifference, as if this was just an ordinary chess game.

When Shen Nian heard this, she became even more angry. Her voice was trembling: "How can you be so cold-blooded! Do you know how much harm you will cause to our family?"

Song Yanghao shook his head gently, his voice calm but with a hint of sarcasm: "Ms. Shen, the business world never pays attention to emotions, only the results. Your family's failure can only be said to be a lack of strength."

There was a sly smile on the corner of Song Yanghao's mouth. His eyes wandered easily on the screen, and then stopped on Pei Jingchuan's face.

"Actually, Mr. Pei is not completely unaware. He also has a certain share in this matter." There were hints in his words, as if he was trying to reveal a deeper secret.

When Shen Nian heard this, her heart instantly sank to the bottom. Her eyes turned from anger to shock, then to despair.

Her body trembled slightly, and her eyes were full of disbelief. She couldn't accept the fact that Pei Jingchuan was actually involved, which was a huge blow to her.

Shen Nian's tears kept flowing, and her voice was choked with despair: "Jingchuan, how could you do this... why? Between us..." Her words were full of pain.

Pei Jingchuan's expression did not change at all, and there was still that unfathomable indifference in his eyes.

A slight sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and his voice was calm and deep: "Miss Shen, when you targeted Jiang Yuzhu, did you ever think that today would happen?"

There was a trace of panic in Shen Nian's eyes, and her body trembled slightly, obviously deeply touched by Pei Jingchuan's words. Her face grew paler and the desperation in her eyes deepened.

Her voice became more choked: "That...that is all in the past, Jingchuan, I...I have changed. You can't punish me for the past...our family..."

Pei Jingchuan's eyes did not waver at all, and he calmly interrupted Shen Nian: "The past will not just disappear, Miss Shen. Everyone must be responsible for their own actions. The plight of your family can only be said to be your fault. Self-inflicted.”

When Shen Nian heard these words, she was completely desperate, and her tears fell like broken beads.
