Shen Yu Nan only noticed what Pei Wu was carrying when he took a deep breath.
There was a moment of silence between them, and the atmosphere became inexplicably awkward.
Shen Yu Nan couldn't figure out what Pei Wu was thinking at this moment, nor could he understand why someone who should have been partying in a nightclub at this time of day would suddenly appear in a place where she shouldn't be.
Even though Shen Yu Nan loathed Pei Wu, with whom he had an improper relationship, he still pretended to be humble and polite on the surface. Even the curve of his lips seemed to have been calculated, and his expression showed no sign of his disgust.
"..." Pei Wu looked at Shen Yu Nan, who had a smile on his face, and couldn't help but look him up and down.
She couldn't understand why, when she was on the phone just now, everything was fine, but in the short time it took her to ride the elevator, the system's mechanical female voice was broadcasting unpleasant data in her ear again, and her romance value of -7 had dropped to -10.
Although Shen Yu Nan appeared outwardly flawless, the data provided by the system clearly indicated that the man before her was not pleased with her arrival. After some interaction and the information obtained from the system, Pei Wu had also made up her mind.
Pei Wu had no intention of going inside.
She handed the bag she was carrying to Shen Yuhuan.
"I brought you some food."
Upon hearing Pei Wu's words, a moment of confusion flashed across Shen Yu Nan's face. After a few seconds, he reached out and took the item from Pei Wu's hand.
"Thank you, Mr. Pei."
"Okay, get some rest. I'm leaving now."
Shen Yu'nan watched Pei Wu enter the elevator, and only turned back into the house after the elevator doors closed.
He casually placed the items on the coffee table, which still carried Pei Wu's unique scent of hormones.
Even through the packaging, Shen Yuhuan could still feel the warmth. He glanced at the food Pei Wu had just delivered and then at the paper bag containing the thermos. Out of curiosity, Shen Yuhuan opened the bag to take a look. Inside was packaged porridge, the sweet aroma of which, along with the fragrance of red dates, filled the air.
The aroma that filled the air made Shen Yu Nan's stomach churn, as he hadn't eaten all day. Upon closer inspection, he noticed the medicine box next to the food box.
Shen Yuhuan reached out to take it, carefully examining the words on it. When he saw the words "painkiller," he subconsciously squinted, which stirred up unpleasant memories. He closed his eyes tightly, then suddenly opened them again, and abruptly threw the thing in his hand into the trash can next to him.
The word 'medicine' was like stabbing a dagger into Shen Yu Nan's heart, because Shen Yu Nan had no love in his heart and could not be moved by Pei Wu. Therefore, every time he made love, Pei Wu would force him with drugs.
"Cough cough."
Outside the window, the night was shrouded in darkness, but inside, only Shen Yu Nan's eyes shone brightly, flashing with a hint of ruthlessness.

On the way back, Pei Wu couldn't help but reflect that she had only been in the game pod for a day and a half, but the values between them had decreased instead of increased. In just a day and a half, she had already lost ten points.
It was a red light, so Pei Wu stopped the car and stared blankly at the dazzling red light.
Even if Pei Wu isn't very emotionally intelligent, it's not hard to deduce from the events of the past day and a half and the information gathered that Shen Yu Nan utterly despises the 'Pei Wu' who used underhanded tactics to coerce him into submitting to her.
Even tentative attempts to please will only displease them.
Pei Wu frowned slightly, her hand on the steering wheel tapping involuntarily.
Now she finally understood why so many gamers would ask whether game developers had ever been in a relationship; the game system seemed to understand men's hearts even less than she did.
After a series of operations, the values between them actually decreased instead of increased, which shows that improvements are still needed.
At that very moment, the mechanical female voice in my ear announced again that the romance level between us had dropped to -15.
Pei Wu couldn't help but click her tongue in amazement.
Extremely frustrated, Pei Wu returned to her residence relying on her memories. In the day and a half since arriving, she had been working tirelessly to familiarize herself with company affairs, and she desperately needed a good night's sleep. Everything else had to wait.
This apartment in the city center looked like it hadn't been lived in for a long time. Although it didn't have many things, it was enough for all the needs. Although the decoration and furnishings weren't Pei Wu's style, it was still a good place for her to stay and sleep tonight.
'Let's talk about the rest after I wake up,' Pei Wu thought.
She already had an idea in mind.

The next day, Pei Wu woke up on time according to her biological clock. After doing aerobic exercise on an empty stomach, she made breakfast herself and ate it before going to the company.
Since she's currently using this body herself, she has to ensure her health. Unlike the original owner, Pei Wu is extremely self-disciplined.
Last night on the way back, Pei Wu made up her mind to go along with Shen Yu Nan's thoughts. His thoughts were not hard to guess. Since he disliked the relationship between them, she would try to untangle the unpleasant relationship first and see.
Three days later, Shen Yu'nan returned to work. Today was also the day that the young master of the Zhou family accompanied his elder sister to the company for the routine meeting.
The Zhou family has a complex network of relationships. The head of the Zhou family, Zhou Yao, has three husbands. Zhou Heyan and Zhou Hedong are siblings from the first branch of the family, sharing the same parents. The Zhou family and the Pei family have been business partners for many years, with intertwined interests that are difficult to separate. Therefore, a marriage alliance between the two families is inevitable.
And this young master of the Zhou family, Zhou Hedong, is the person Pei Wu is about to marry.
Zhou Hedong is the eldest son of the main branch of the family, and he only has one older sister. There is a seven or eight-year age gap between the two, so this Miss Zhou dotes on her younger brother and spoils him at home. In addition, given the social status of the Zhou family, everyone has to give way to him. However, this young master of the Zhou family is famous for his handsomeness and talent. Today, he was simply dressed in a white shirt and beige pants, but it was hard to hide his scholarly air. His every move was very elegant.
At this moment, Pei Wu's previous meeting had not yet ended, so she arranged for the Zhou siblings to wait in the lounge. When Shen Yu Nan brought in the coffee, he still had that downcast look on his face. "Please wait a moment, both of you."
As Shen Yu'nan spoke, a smile played on his lips, and his subordinates were taking out white coffee cups from the tray, preparing to hand them to the Zhou siblings.
The way she lowered her head revealed her fair neck, which had an ambiguous red mark on it. At this moment, Shen Yunan's act of handing her coffee with his head down made this spot completely exposed to the two of them.
"Thank you, Secretary Shen." Gu Hedong reached out and took the coffee that Shen Yuhuan handed him, but he didn't seem to notice the other party's deliberate behavior.
Zhou Heyan immediately noticed the deliberate display by the other party, and her eyelids twitched. She subconsciously glanced at her innocent younger brother, who seemed not to have noticed her deliberate behavior, and breathed a slight sigh of relief. Zhou Heyan then glanced at the watch on Shen Yunan's wrist. The watch was expensive and a limited edition, and his suit was also from a well-known haute couture brand. All of these things were beyond the capabilities of a secretary.
