Qi Yan pinched Pei Yuchen's tough and handsome face with the sole of her shoe without mercy. Her expression was frighteningly cold, and there was no fluctuation in her clear eyes.

His usually calm tone also became frighteningly cold, and a powerful pressure was overwhelming.

"Pei Yuchen, who gave you the courage?"

"I just haven't been back for three years, and you dare to jump in front of me like this?"

"You mean my fiancé? The engagement was cancelled three years ago before I went on a mission, so you are the one. You haven't forgotten, have you?"

"..."

Pei Yuchen was stepped on the face, but he was not annoyed. He held Qi Yan's ankle and spoke tenderly.

"But I didn't agree, and you don't have a more suitable marriage partner than me. If the master family urges you to get married, we will still get married."

"I'm not wrong, you're still my fiancée."

He had investigated the Shen Rao just now and found that he was far inferior to him. There was no reason why he would be surpassed.

Qi Yan glared at him coldly, his lips straightened, and he pulled his foot away.

Just as he was about to kick him hard in the head, Bai Ya grabbed his waist and dragged him back, so his kick missed.

"Qi Yan, calm down! This is a hospital!"

Qi Yan's face was solemn, and she raised her lips: "Isn't the hospital better? If they don't kill him, they can still save him."

"..."

Bai Ya didn't dare to delay, fearing that someone might die, so she pulled her aside to remind her.

"That's not the point. Shen Rao ran away, aren't you going to chase him?"

Qi Yan finally calmed down a little, glanced coldly at Pei Yuchen who was helped up by Zuo Yu, and left after saying something.

"Our engagement has been cancelled. If you dare to bring it up again, don't blame me for taking action."

Pei Yuchen moved to the lounge chair and sat down, then took the medical wipes that Zuo Yu carried with him and wiped his face.

The skin at the corner of his mouth was broken and it was burning with pain, which showed how much strength Qi Yan used.

Bai Ya crossed her arms, shook her head and sighed.

"Brother Yuchen, why do you have to do this?"

"Don't you know why Qi Yan accepted the list removal plan? Aren't you just dancing in her minefield?"

She also learned from her previous conversation with Qi Yan that one of the reasons why she was willing to accept such a dangerous action was to completely get rid of her family's control over her marriage.

The condition is to dissolve the engagement.

If she failed, she would just do other safer tasks and marry Pei Yuchen according to the family's arrangement.

Now the mission has been completed. The engagement was cancelled three years ago before the mission.

Although most people still think that Qi Yan will marry him in the end, the engagement is indeed no longer in existence.

Before, she thought Qi Yan would unconditionally obey all the arrangements of the family, but later she found out that she was wrong.

Qi Yan is not without rebelliousness. Perhaps marriage is the only thing she can fight for, and the only thing she doesn't want to be arranged by.

So, now that it is mentioned, the engagement that she had spent three years of blood and tears to get rid of is still there, and the right to freely choose a spouse that she fought for does not exist at all.

It can be said that it directly detonated all bottom lines.

It’s no wonder that Qi Yan was so angry and beat people up. If it were her, she would probably have given someone some strange medicine.

Even Bai Ya, an outsider, saw it clearly.

How could Pei Yuchen, the person involved, not know this? He is also a genius of the Pei family, so his brain should be enough.

He wiped the wound at the corner of his mouth with a wet wipe, which was bleeding, and smiled without even frowning.

"I'm telling the truth, don't you think so too?"

Zuo Yu and Bai Ya looked at each other in silence.

Yes, they think so too.

Pei Yuchen was the spouse carefully selected by the Qi family to be the next head of the family.

No one is more suitable than him. He is good enough and is highly valued. In the Qi family, his strength is second only to Qi Yan.

Everyone was satisfied with him, everyone thought they should be a couple, and everyone was only concerned with looking at the aura of the two and how well-matched they were.

So no one cared about Qi Yan's intention until she proposed to take over the list-clearing plan and added the condition of canceling the engagement.

Everyone suddenly realized that the parties involved were not satisfied with this engagement.

But people still believe that Qi Yan will, and can only, marry Pei Yuchen in the end.

Because there is no one better suited.

The eldest son of the Pei family should be Qi Yan's spouse. This has been a deep-rooted consensus for many years.

Pei Yuchen himself thinks so too.

When he first learned about Shen Rao, he didn't care. He knew very well how cold-hearted Qi Yan was.

After twenty years of living together, the ice has not melted.

It was just because the mission needed to be concealed, and there was no way that the person provoked could cause any trouble.

But today he found out that he was wrong.

Qi Yan treats Shen Rao differently, very differently.

He had never seen Qi Yan who was absent-minded and caring about others.

He was panic-stricken, spoke without thinking, and became unlike himself.

It's like a child discovering that something precious that should have always belonged to him has been taken away, and he can't wait to claim his sovereignty.

It messed up everything.

Pei Yuchen pursed his lips and raised his head with a somewhat lonely look.

"Is Shen Rao really just the target of the mission?"

He didn't know who he was asking, and his eyes were unfocused.

The two people standing beside her didn't know what to say, and in the end it was Bai Ya who revealed the bloody truth.

"Brother Yuchen, this is not the point. Even if Shen Rao wasn't there, Qi Yan wouldn't have accepted the arrangement. Don't you see it clearly yet?"

Qi Yan is a person who does not make decisions easily, but once he makes a decision and makes up his mind, he will never look back.

Even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, even if there are countless difficulties.

Taking over the task is, and so is breaking off the engagement.

Pei Yuchen wiped the corner of his mouth, his sharp eyes were calm, and he said nothing.

Bai Ya didn't say much. She looked up and saw someone dressed similarly to him coming towards her with a payment slip.

"Boss, why are you here? Everyone has been looking for you for a long time. Xiao Lu's fee has been paid."

"Hey? What's wrong with your mouth?"

Pei Yuchen threw the wet wipes into the trash can and tidied his windbreaker.

"It's okay, I didn't do it by accident. I have something else to do over there. I'll go over there first and we'll meet again next time."

"Okay, go and do your work."

Zuo Yu nodded.

After saying that, Pei Yuchen followed his subordinates and went to the inpatient department.

Bai Ya also received the news at this time.

The reason why Pei Yuchen appeared in the Central Hospital was that one of his subordinates had a car accident, broke his leg, and needed to be hospitalized for recuperation.

Bai Ya put away her phone.

It’s not that she doesn’t trust Pei Yuchen, but anyone who appears around Qi Yan during this period must be taken seriously.

The four of them grew up together. Although they were not as close to Qi Yan as he was, they still regarded him as their brother.

"Boss, how did your mouth get knocked like this?"

After turning the corner of the corridor, the subordinate couldn't help but ask.

What posture do you use?

It looks like there are shoe prints on the face?

Did he see it wrong?!

This is the only face their boss has left that is still presentable!

Pei Yuchen didn't answer, he was a little distracted, and only came back to his senses when he reached the door of the ward.

As soon as his hand touched the door handle, he turned his head and looked at his subordinate who was still staring at the shoe prints on his face.

He rubbed his face.

“Xiao Wu, go check out Shen Rao of the Shen family in the imperial capital and sort out the information for me.

"The key point is to find out who he had contact with three years ago and this year."
