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

After a moment of silence, Pei Jingchuan's voice finally softened: "Yuzhu, I believe in you, and I have never doubted your professional ability. But you have to promise me that no matter what happens, you will tell me as soon as possible. I don't want to Let you face any difficulties alone."

"Jingchuan, I know that for you, this is a kind of protection and care." Jiang Yuzhu's voice was full of gratitude, "But please believe me, I know how to take care of myself. In Jiangnan, I will be extra careful and won't It makes you worry.”

Pei Jingchuan finally sighed softly, with a kind of helplessness in his voice: "Yuzhu, I know you are very capable and independent. But as your husband, I will always worry about you. You have to remember , no matter where you are, I will support you and protect you."

A warm current surged in Jiang Yuzhu's heart, and she deeply felt Pei Jingchuan's love for her. "Thank you, Jingchuan. I will be careful too."

The two comforted each other on the phone, and their words were filled with deep care.

After a long conversation, Pei Jingchuan's mood finally eased, and his voice no longer contained so much worry.

On the other end of the phone, Pei Jingchuan's mood gradually calmed down under Jiang Yuzhu's soft soothing voice.

His eyes lingered at the end of the corridor, and the waves in his heart began to slowly subside.

Although he is still worried about Jiang Yuzhu's trip to Jiangnan, he also knows that for a person who loves his career so much, this worry can only be turned into support.

Pei Jingchuan thought for a moment and finally spoke, with concern in his voice: "Go home early tonight, I will wait for you."

Jiang Yuzhu smiled slightly on the other end of the phone, and a warmth surged in her heart.

She clearly felt Pei Jingchuan's love and care, which made her heart firmer: "Okay, Jingchuan. I will come back as soon as possible."

When the call was about to end, both of them felt an inexplicable sense of tranquility.

Although the road ahead is full of challenges, they all firmly believe that as long as there is mutual support and understanding, any difficulty will not be a problem.

Pei Jingchuan re-entered the conference room, his steps were steady, but the sparkle in his eyes had dimmed slightly.

Sitting back at the conference table, although his demeanor still maintained the calmness of a business tycoon, it was not difficult for a careful person to notice that his eyes had lost their previous sharpness.

The atmosphere in the conference room also changed subtly because of Pei Jingchuan's return.

The executives participating in the meeting exchanged glances with each other, and they all realized that Pei Jingchuan's conversation on the phone just now might have made him uneasy.

Although they don't know the specific content, Pei Jingchuan has always been known for his calmness. Now this subtle change undoubtedly shows the seriousness of the problem.

Pei Jingchuan glanced around the conference room and tried to keep his voice firm: "Sorry, I just had some personal matters to deal with. Let's continue."

As the meeting resumed, Pei Jingchuan tried to focus on the issues.

However, unlike his previous focus and sharpness, his reactions seemed slightly slower, and he would occasionally be in a daze for a few seconds.

His answers were no longer to the point, but more cautious and thoughtful.

Others in the room felt the change, too.

When they discussed, they were no longer as direct as before, but took Pei Jingchuan's emotions into consideration and tried to avoid touching on issues that might increase his psychological burden.

Despite this, Pei Jingchuan still strives to maintain his role as the helm of the Pei Group.

He is still able to make correct judgments at critical moments to ensure that meetings can be conducted effectively.

But he would occasionally draw a few strokes in his notebook unintentionally, and his eyes would drift out of the window from time to time, as if looking for some kind of escape.

When the meeting finally ended and everyone dispersed, Pei Jingchuan did not get up immediately.

He sat there quietly, staring blankly at the empty conference table.

The air in the conference room seemed to be frozen, and only the sound of Pei Jingchuan's slight breathing echoed in the empty room.

In that quiet conference room, Pei Jingchuan sat alone, letting time pass slowly.

He struggled with complex emotions in his heart, until finally, he took a deep breath, stood up, and decided to return to his office.

He needs some time to think alone. Maybe only in that space of his own can he find a little peace.

When the busy day gradually receded, Jiang Yuzhu finished his day's work.

She arranged her doctor's robe and hung it gently on the hanger in the office, filled with anticipation of meeting Pei Jingchuan in the evening.

She walked out of the hospital door and saw a gradually darkening sky in front of her. The slight evening breeze brought a bit of coolness.

At the entrance of the hospital, there was a constant flow of traffic and people passing by in a hurry.

Jiang Yuzhu's eyes unconsciously searched for a familiar figure in the waiting area, but Pei Jingchuan did not appear on time as usual.

She felt a little disappointed in her heart. She knew that Pei Jingchuan might still be angry, but she still couldn't help but look forward to his appearance.

She gently took out her phone and checked if there was any news from Pei Jingchuan.

There were no new notifications on the screen. Jiang Yuzhu's fingertips lightly slid across the screen, hesitating whether to call him.

She thought about it and finally decided to wait for a while, not wanting to cause trouble to him while he was busy.

Jiang Yuzhu leaned against a pillar at the entrance of the hospital. Her eyes drifted among the crowd, and her thoughts drifted away.

She was thinking about her upcoming trip to Jiangnan and her conversation with Pei Jingchuan.

Although the words on the phone were full of mutual understanding, she knew that Pei Jingchuan must still be worried about her safety in his heart.

Time passed quietly, and Jiang Yuzhu's waiting became longer and longer as night fell.

People were coming and going around her, but she stood there quietly like an isolated island.

Finally, she sighed and decided to leave for home.

She knew that Pei Jingchuan would come to pick her up if he was free. Since he didn't show up, it meant that he was still angry.

After Jiang Yuzhu hesitated for a moment at the door of the hospital, he finally shook his head gently and decided not to wait any longer.

She took a deep breath, put her phone back in her pocket, turned and walked towards the roadside.

The night was as dark as water, and every light and shadow under the street lights seemed particularly silent.

She waved to stop a taxi, the door opened slightly, and she slowly got into the car.

"Excuse me, go to this address." Jiang Yuzhu told the driver his home address, his voice calm and slightly tired.

The driver nodded, started the car, and slowly merged into the night traffic.

Outside the car window, the city lights are twinkling, and every streetlight seems to be telling an unknown story.

Jiang Yuzhu leaned against the car window, looking at the scenery outside the window with blurred eyes, but his heart was in chaos.
