Chapter 143: Chapter 143: Say It Again

Shen Heyu finished a day’s work, and her last task was to visit the Pei Group to have Pei Yansi sign the final confirmation before a project could begin.

With this, the project with the Pei Group could officially start, and the Shen Group would be fully integrated with Pei Yansi’s chain of businesses, making transferring business from abroad to domestic much simpler.

There was no other reason except that the influence of Pei Yansi was enormous. With him, everything became much easier.

As Shen Heyu exited her company building, she saw Lu Yi’s car parked at the curb. When he saw her approaching, he honked his horn.

He rolled down the window halfway, revealing his face, and said, “Heyu, get in.”

He must have come to find her in person for a reason, so Shen Heyu opened the passenger door and sat down.

“Doctor Lu, why have you come yourself?”

Lu Yi didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he changed the subject and asked, “Where are you heading? Can I give you a ride?”

“I’m going to the Pei Group.”

“To see Pei Yansi?” He slightly furrowed his brows and asked while starting the car.

“There is a project that needs his signature. Once it’s signed, the project will be handed over to the employees, and then there won’t be any more work-related ties with me.”

“I see.”

Lu Yi spoke with a heavy voice. Shen Heyu noticed something off in his tone, glanced at him, and saw that he looked somewhat unwell. She asked, “You came to find me. Is there a problem?”

Lu Yi gave a faint “hmm” but didn’t immediately say what it was. Instead, he started driving, creating a somewhat gloomy atmosphere in the car.

Half an hour later, Lu Yi parked his car under the tall building of the Pei Group and said to her, “Heyu, I really have something I need your help with.”

“What?” Shen Heyu had a bad feeling. She still remembered what Pei Yansi had said to him at Yuexue’s birthday party which had overwhelmed him.

Just as feared, it was just as expected. She then heard him say, “Recently, my father’s company has faced many attacks, both from within and outside the industry.”

“According to my father’s investigation, the parties responsible are all Pei Yansi’s people.”

“My father really couldn’t find any solution and came to me. I tried to handle it, but still, it’s no use. I am in a desperate situation, but… if it’s difficult for you?”

Lu Yi didn’t continue, but Shen Heyu already knew what he was going to ask next.

It was nothing but for her to speak a few words in front of Pei Yansi.

In the past, Lu Yi had helped her a lot. She couldn’t refuse to help him now, and this situation even lessened her already low regard for Pei Yansi. No, she hadn’t had much regard for him to start with.

Somehow, this seemed somewhat related to her.

She said, “I will let Pei Yansi know and help you. Don’t worry.”

Lu Yi said, “Thank you.”

“No need.”

Shen Heyu finished speaking, ready to get out of the car.

Lu Yi hurriedly held her back. She turned around to face his earnest eyes. “Heyu, if he makes things difficult for you, let me know. I’ll take you away. I can disregard any company, marry you, and then you’ll have the status of a married woman. He’ll need to be more cautious.”

Shen Heyu paused.

All she heard was his willingness to disregard any company for a woman—not many men left in this era would go to such lengths.

Most people just considered their gains and losses.

Indeed, she had thought about using marriage to avoid Pei Yansi, but at least the feeling wasn’t strong at the moment. She said, “Doctor Lu, let’s talk about this later.”

After speaking, not knowing how to face Lu Yi’s earnest eyes, she hurriedly got out of the car and quickly entered the Pei Group building, clutching her documents.

She knew her way around well and was very familiar with the path to the president’s office.

Upon arriving, as other employees were just leaving, she came out of the elevator and met Yun Duo head-on.

Seeing her, Yun Duo said with a beaming smile, “Director Shen, are you here to see Pei Yansi?”

“Yes.” Shen Heyu didn’t pick up on her gossipy tone.

Yun Duo quickly said, “Is there still a chance between you two?”

Shen Heyu paused, then realized what she really meant. She reluctantly raised the documents in her hand and said, “I’m here on official business. Don’t overthink it.”

Yun Duo looked up, saw Pei Yansi coming out of his office, hurried onto the elevator, and dared not say another word.

Pei Yansi was about to leave, but seeing Shen Heyu by the elevator, he couldn’t help but smile, knowing she was here for work. Yet, she had come looking for him, which made him want to smile at her.

Then, he turned around and reentered his office.

Shen Heyu followed him, handing him the documents. “This is the project initiation document. President Pei, please take a look, and if there are no issues, sign here.”

As if certain she wouldn’t deceive him, Pei Yansi signed right away. He then handed back the documents to her, saying, “Perfect timing. I’ll take you and your daughter out for dinner.”

“No need.”

Shen Heyu flatly refused, stood up, gathered her documents, and before leaving, said, “I know about your actions against the Lu Family.”

The good mood of Pei Yansi instantly dissipated with her words. He looked up, his face losing its smile, and asked, “What do you want to say?”

“I want to say that you don’t need to antagonize Lu Yi. He and I have nothing between us, just a normal friendship. If you don’t want me to hate you, you’d better stop right now.”

Pei Yansi laughed, a laugh filled with undeniable coldness, “You mean, let go of Lu Yi, pleading on his behalf, is that it?”

“You can put it that way.” Shen Heyu said, “If you keep this up, I won’t mind teaming up with him to counter you.”

Hearing this, Pei Yansi stood up and approached her.

The oppressive air around him fell like a heavy mountain. But Shen Heyu forced herself to remain calm. She didn’t show any of the fear she once held for him, nor did she step back.

He reached out, touching her lips—the shape beautiful, but why did it always utter such displeasing words?

He said, “The more you say this, the more I want to completely ruin him. Shen Heyu, don’t think I’m very patient. You’re pleading for another man in front of me, do you think I’m dead?”

“Yes.”

Shen Heyu coldly retorted, “To me, you are dead.”

Pei Yansi’s eyes darkened. The hand caressing her lip corner suddenly moved down, touching her carotid artery, like a threat or a warning, “Say that again?”

“I said, to me, you are dead.” Shen Heyu felt his lingering hand on her artery, feeling like he could strangle her any moment.
