Chapter 78: Fun

Jiang Wan spent the whole afternoon trying to find someone who was willing to look at her plan and talk to her.

This is a good thing, but not entirely a good thing.

Because, there is someone there too.

This time, Jiang Wan took the initiative to book a more formal business club. People coming in and out were all industry elites or familiar faces. At least it was not like the last time with Feng Shao.

Jiang Wan arrived early. The person who was willing to talk to her about the Xinglanting plan was a CEO named Li. She had heard of the Li Group, which was a century-old enterprise. More than ten years ago, it could compete with the Pei family, but now it has gradually declined and is on the edge. Ever since Pei Yu took over the Pei group, his methods have been ruthless and resolute, even more so than his late father. He has risen all the way and now basically controls half of Yuncheng.

I have to say that although Pei Yu is not a decent person, he is still very capable.

However, the gossips he often caused weakened all his glory. People who were not in the know would only think that Pei Yu only relied on his family background to sit in his current position.

In fact, he himself is capable enough.

Many times Jiang Wan didn’t understand why she wanted to ruin her own reputation.

Even if he likes those women, there is no need to make it public.

He never suppressed gossip and allowed it to ferment. Only Mr. Pei would remind him from time to time.

While thinking, Jiang Wan heard some movement at the door and she adjusted her appearance.

The door was pushed open and a group of people came in, about five or six in number. Leading them was Mr. Li. Jiang Wan had seen his photo before. He also brought an assistant with him.

Then I looked back and saw a small team, and when I saw the next person ...

Jiang Wan's pupils suddenly shrank, and the hand holding the plan tightened, and some fine beads of sweat appeared unconsciously.

Pei Yu?

Why is he here?

At this time, Pei Yu was casually putting his hands in his pockets and talking to the person next to him. He smiled, which was quite evil.

Then he raised his eyelids, glanced at Jiang Wan who was fake smiling, and raised his eyebrows slightly.

But there was no more emotion, and he was completely a stranger in clothes. Jiang Wan also restored his expression, temporarily suppressed his speculation, and welcomed them to sit down.

A manager on Mr. Li's side had sharp eyes and noticed the change in Pei Yu's expression. After sitting down, he asked casually , " Mr. Pei, do you know Miss Jiang?"

Pei Yu sat down casually, crossed his legs, and tapped the tabletop with his long fingers. "I don't know him."

The manager blinked and understood what was going on.

Jiang Wan remained calm, with no emotion visible on her face, and she entertained guests in her usual manner.

Jiang Wan didn’t know whether Pei Yu’s appearance here was a coincidence or for some other reason.

The last time the two of them parted on bad terms, Pei Yu seemed to have made a statement.

She said she would definitely come to ask him for help.

Jiang Wan felt a chill down her spine. She had the feeling that Pei Yu was waiting for her here. He probably asked Mr. Li to come here.

So many people won't accept it.

Pei Yu wanted to humiliate her by openly putting options that were not really choices in front of her, telling her how powerless she was and that she could only rely on him?

Does he want to crush her self-esteem inch by inch?

Jiang Wan took a deep breath. If it was Jiang Zezhong, she could still deal with it, but if Pei Yu also ...

She didn't know how difficult the road ahead would be.

"Mr. Li, thank you for accepting my invitation and learning about the planning of our Xinglanting project. So, can I take a few minutes to summarize the core content of this project and then talk about the details?"

"Of course, if Mr. Li has any suggestions during this period, you can put them forward, and Xu will make appropriate improvements."

Mr. Li nodded, but it was obvious that his mind was not on the project planning. Instead, his eyes kept staring at Jiang Wan up and down. Although it was not obvious, one could still feel the stickiness.

It makes people feel very uncomfortable.

Jiang Wan remained calm and composed.

"As for the project planning, don't worry about it. We are thirsty on the way here, so let's have a few bottles of wine."

Jiang Wan had no objection and turned around to ask the waiter to serve the wine.

After the wine came, the waiter was very considerate and opened the glass and started pouring it.

Mr. Li pushed his arm and said, "You don't need to pour the wine. Go away."

The waiter went out.

There was silence in the room for a moment.

After Jiang Wan received the look from Mr. Li, he vaguely understood something.

The waiter was not allowed to pour the wine, and the people brought by Mr. Li did not move, let alone Pei Yu.

This means asking him to pour the wine.

Pei Yu didn't say anything, a cigarette flickering between his fingers. After entering the private room, he didn't say a few words, but his deep and very presence-filled eyes seemed to cast on her.

Jiang Wan didn't want to care, but where this man was, there was no way for her not to care.

Jiang Wan picked up the bottle to pour the wine. Mr. Li knew Pei Yu was there, so he said cheerfully , " Pour for our Mr. Pei first, haha!"

Jiang Wan's hands froze as she looked at Pei Yu who was a few feet away from her.

"What's the matter, Miss Jiang, you look down on me and are not willing to even pour me a glass of wine?" Pei Yu's tone was lazy and sounded more like a mockery.

Jiang Wan twitched the corner of his mouth, "How could it be."

She walked over to Pei Yu's side, and the strong scent of the man hit her face.

Familiar, yet oppressive.

Mr. Li was talking to himself, "That's right, Miss Jiang is so pretty and knows how to behave. With Mr. Pei here, how could she not be willing to pour a glass of wine? I'm afraid there will be a long line of women who want to pour wine for Mr. Pei."

Pei Yu smiled but said nothing. He looked bad and evil. He never concealed his true nature.

That's just the kind of person he is.

The bottle tilted, and the wine slowly poured into the open cup, accompanied by subtle movements.

Jiang Wan drooped her eyelids, and because she bent down, a few strands of her long hair, which had been neatly tucked behind her ears, fell down.

Pei Yu's fingertips moved slightly, and he suppressed the urge to push her behind her ears, still looking at her playfully.

Mr. Li said , " What a coincidence, I just happened to run into Mr. Pei today. I didn't expect that Mr. Pei was also interested in the Xinglanting project. I wanted to come and listen, but Mr. Pei has so many big projects on his hands, I'm afraid he won't be interested in the Xinglanting project, hahaha!"

Jiang Wan's hand holding the wine bottle shook, and some of the wine spilled outside.

Jiang Wan took a breath and said, "I'm sorry."
