In the past, when she acted coquettishly, Pei Siyu always looked disgusted.

Now that the two extremes have reversed, he feels embarrassed.

Wouldn't that make things easier to control in the future?

When Mingyao arrived at the company, she saw Xu Sitian standing at the company entrance as soon as she got out of the car.

Pei Siyu's expression darkened visibly upon seeing Xu Sitian.

"Get her out of here!"

The bodyguard rushed up, grabbed Xu Sitian's arm, and took her away.

Xu Sitian screamed and struggled wildly.

When she saw Mingyao and Xu Sitian standing together, her expression froze instantly.

Unlike Mingyao, who used to dress like a typical career woman, she now exudes an air of nobility. Standing next to Pei Siyu, they are a perfect couple, a truly pleasing sight.

To spite Xu Sitian, Mingyao deliberately grabbed Pei Siyu's hand.

Unexpectedly, Pei Siyu interlocked his fingers with hers, his large hand enveloping her small one, making Mingyao blush and her heart race with embarrassment.

Everything that was bound to happen has already happened, but she's still shy.

Xu Sitian's eyes widened, and she couldn't shake off the feeling for a long time.

In her opinion, Mingyao, a woman with little education and an empty mind, was not good enough for Pei Siyu.

The reality is that Pei Siyu only has eyes for her!

The news of Pei Siyu taking Mingyao shopping and spending lavishly in the mall also made the front page, and many people were envious and jealous of Mingyao.

The next day, Pei Siyu arrived at the company early for a meeting, while Mingyao arrived at work on time.

Meng Zhenzhen sat at the front desk, chin in hand, idly twirling a pen.

Upon seeing Mingyao, her eyes immediately lit up.

"Sister Su!"

Meng Zhenzhen, like a bouncy little deer, immediately snuggled into Mingyao's arms.

Mingyao was stunned for a moment: "Why are you here instead of at the hospital?"

Meng Zhenzhen said with a smile, "My health has improved, and my grandmother allowed me to come to the hospital."

"That's fine then."

Mingyao took a deep breath, preparing herself to get ready for work.

Meng Zhenzhen didn't go looking for Pei Siyu; she just lingered around him.

Mingyao sensed that Meng Zhenzhen had something to say to her, "Zhenzhen, what do you want to say? Just say it."

Meng Zhenzhen looked a little embarrassed: "Sister Su, you and my cousin have a good relationship, well..."

She approached Mingyao hesitantly, asking with a pleading look, "Could you say a few good words for Xu Sitian?"

Mingyao was not surprised.

Xu Sitian approached Meng Zhenzhen from the beginning in order to use her to get close to Pei Siyu.

Mingyao was just thinking about how shameless Xu Sitian was.

Meng Zhenzhen is still a patient, and at this critical moment, she is the one who has to plead for mercy.

Mingyao felt sorry for Meng Zhenzhen.

Meng Zhenzhen spends most of her time in the hospital, has little contact with people, and doesn't have many friends. That's precisely why she considers Xu Sitian a friend.

“Zhenzhen, Xu Sitian is involved in a matter of principle.”

"Moreover, she has had a very bad impact on the company and on me, so it is impossible for her to return to the company."

The light in Meng Zhenzhen's eyes suddenly dimmed. "She kept crying yesterday and said she knew she was wrong."

"So I want to ask if we can give her another chance."

Mingyao shook her head: "I can't help her. The decision is made by Pei Siyu."

Meng Zhenzhen hesitated for a moment: "I think I'll go ask my cousin."

"Sister Su, let me apologize to you on her behalf."

Meng Zhenzhen bowed ninety degrees to Ming Yao, her attitude very sincere.

A nameless anger surged within Mingyao. "Zhenzhen, she's the one who did something wrong, why are you apologizing?"

“If she really thinks she did something wrong, she should come to me and apologize in person.”

Meng Zhenzhen said awkwardly, "Didn't she come? My cousin kicked her out."

"Sister Su, don't be angry."

How could Mingyao not be angry?

Xu Sitian was the one who did wrong, yet she encouraged the innocent and kind-hearted Meng Zhenzhen to stand up for her.

As Meng Zhenzhen was about to go to Pei Siyu's office, Mingyao called her back.

"Zhenzhen, is Xu Sitian really worth it for you?"

Meng Zhenzhen nodded like a little chick pecking at rice: "It's worth it."

“I don’t have many friends. Xu Sitian has been with me all these years.”

"Sister Su, she may not be perfect, but I believe she's not that bad at heart."

Mingyao watched her retreating figure, lost in thought.

Pei Siyu was still in a meeting, and Meng Zhenzhen didn't want to disturb him, so she waited in the office.

Xu Sitian couldn't wait to send a message.

【how's it going?】

Meng Zhenzhen: [I'll try to ask my cousin.]

Meng Zhenzhen: [Don't worry.]

Xu Sitian bit her nails. She had already violated Pei Siyu's principles, and pleading alone probably wouldn't be enough.

She has to find a way to make a contribution; only then will she have a chance to return to the company!

After a moment's thought, Xu Sitian asked, "Zhenzhen, I'm also following up on President Pei's current project."

I really want to do something for President Pei, but...

Could you find a way to let me see the company's project proposal?

Meng Zhenzhen felt it wasn't right to do this and hesitated: "Sweetie, this is company confidential information. You're no longer with the company, so it's not appropriate for me to help you like this."

【Zhenzhen, don't you believe me?】

【I'm doing this for the company's good, and I really want to get back to President Pei's side.】

Please help me.

Meng Zhenzhen was still hesitant when Xu Sitian's message carried a hint of threat.

Do you consider me a friend?

Meng Zhenzhen panicked and said cautiously, "Then I'll look for it."
