Wei Zhichen came in and looked at the man sitting behind the desk.

He looked at the reports from various departments in front of him with a cold and handsome look, and couldn't help but chuckled: "It's really not easy to see you. You should know that your brother born to the first wife is back, right?"

Pei Qiao raised his eyelids and said, "Well, I'm back. It's time to come back after more than ten years away. Did you come here just to tell me such boring things?"

"Tsk, you are still as cold as ever. I am concerned about you, but you think such a big threat is boring." Wei Zhichen walked to the leather sofa and sat down: "Of course I am not here to talk about your brother, but it has a lot to do with you. If it is exposed, it would be fine if you give up. If you want to protect it, the Pei family will definitely not let you go."

Pei Jianian paused with the pen in his hand and tilted his head slightly: "You won't let me go? What are you talking about? Just say it, when did you become so hesitant?"

"What I want to talk about is Xu Yunzhuo, the woman you married. Do you know her past?" Wei Zhichen smiled, his eyes full of teasing.

Pei Jiaonian's brows sank slightly.

Xu Yunzhuo?

What happened to her?

He withdrew his gaze: "No, what's wrong?"

"She got lost when she was five years old and was sold to many places. Finally, she was adopted by a family named Zhang. Now I finally understand why she would rather spend five million to kill her adoptive father, but this scumbag really deserves to die." Wei Zhichen continued.

Pei Jianian frowned: "What's going on?"

"Xu Yunzhuo was once violated by her adoptive father. Do you think the Pei family will allow such a woman with a stain on her to be the wife of the Patriarch of the Pei family?"

As Wei Zhichen's last word fell.

Pei Qiaonian's pupils shrank slightly, his hand loosened, and the pen fell to the bottom of the table with a "crack" sound.

"What did you say?"

Wei Zhichen shook his head helplessly: "This is the news I got, and I don't know how this matter fell into the ears of the Pei family. Otherwise, why would Pei Linyuan be pushed in as soon as he returned? This is to undermine your power from the foundation."

"If you want power, then you have to stay away from this woman. The old antiques in the Pei family will not let you go and are looking for your faults."

Pei Jianian slammed his hand on the table, his face livid: "How many people know about this?"

Wei Zhichen was stunned, not understanding why he suddenly got angry. This was the first time he saw his emotions fluctuate so much.

"If the news spreads at this rate, the entire internet will know about it soon. If you cut ties with her before then, there will still be room for maneuver and you won't be implicated..."

"Damn it." Pei Jianian clenched his fists, veins popped out on his arms, and his face was terribly gloomy: "Who leaked it?"

Wei Zhichen looked at him in silence for a long time before asking, "What do you think?"

Pei Jianian's eyes flashed coldly: "I didn't get all the power in the Pei family by relying on the charity of those old immortals. And you use this kind of thing to attack a woman. Don't let me catch who it is, or I will let him know what hell is."

Wei Zhichen thought of many possibilities. Would a cold-blooded man like Pei Jianian abandon Xu Yunzhuo, his wife who showed up unexpectedly, to save himself? Or could he part ways with Xu Yunzhuo in a friendly way? It is not easy to build a business empire, not to mention that for a man like him who holds power in his hands, there will be more people around him looking for his faults to attack him.

He never expected that Pei Jianian was just angry about this matter, or in other words, he indirectly protected Xu Yunzhuo. Even if she had such a past, he would not look down on her.

Wei Zhichen leaned back on the sofa and laughed out loud: "That's right, this is you, Brother Qiao. You are really a person who looks cold on the outside but is very gentle on the inside."

Pei Jianian took a deep breath and said, "Don't disgust me, Zhichen. Please help me investigate this matter and find out who is behind the rumors. Also, please help me find a couple named Xu Guowei. You have more connections abroad. I think I can find out about the couple within a day."

Hearing this, Wei Zhichen was startled: "Xu Guowei? Isn't this the younger brother of your wife's fake father?"
