"So you still blame me after all. It turns out that I've become so filthy and despicable in A-Wu's eyes."
Gu Yanyu slowly raised his lowered eyelids. "Nothing has happened between her and me at all."
Pei Wu tilted her head in confusion at the other person's inexplicable words.
After speaking, Gu Yanyu reached out and pulled down his collar, causing two or three buttons to pop off, revealing a red mole-like mark on his snow-white shoulder. This red mark was an outward manifestation of a man's chastity; it would remain there as long as he had not had intimate relations with a woman.
Gu Yanyu, whose wife died on their wedding night, was still a virgin.
Upon seeing this, Pei Wu frowned sharply.
"Mr. Gu, please have some self-respect. The meeting room is under full surveillance."
As soon as she said it, Pei Wu seemed to suddenly understand why the other party was so unwilling to give in.
Gu Yanyu, who had been scolded by Pei Wu, had his already red eyes filled with moisture, as if he was about to shed tears at any moment.
For a moment, he seemed to have forgotten what he was doing. Besides the red mark, there were also purplish-blue marks and mottled red marks on his exposed wrist, just like the ones he had seen yesterday. It was obvious at a glance that he had been pinched hard or whipped by something else.
Pei Wu glanced away and remained silent for about two or three seconds before getting up and leaving the reception room.
The door to the reception room was originally open, but Pei Wu closed it after coming out, considering Gu Yanyu's disheveled appearance. If Gu Yanyu walked out of Diana in such a disheveled state, who knows what kind of nonsense he would write.
Pei Wu stood at the door of the reception room and called out, "Ju Heng!"
"Yes, Mr. Pei!"
Ju Heng, who had just come from Shen Yu Nan's place, heard Pei Wu calling him.
"Go and get a piece of clothing for Mr. Gu."
"yes."
"Try to find the same brand and style as what he's wearing."
"yes."
Being disheveled or changing clothes are equally attention-grabbing points in the eyes of gossipy reporters.
"Also, call the Xu family and tell them to send someone, and instruct them that the person who comes must be someone who can take charge."
"yes."
"Have you heard from the wedding planner yet?"
"Not yet, I'll call again later to urge them."
"Tell them to hurry up."
"Yes, Mr. Pei, there's one more thing."
"explain."
“Secretary Shen Yu Nan has arrived. He says he has something you need to deal with the Xu family.”
"..." Upon hearing the name of her target, Pei Wu subconsciously raised her eyebrows slightly.
She last met Shen Yunan at the coffee shop downstairs from Diana, and later they chatted briefly on WeChat.
The two never crossed paths again after that.
All the targets of her romance have appeared in Diana's life, but her system remains remarkably quiet.
After much deliberation, Pei Wu decided not to meet with Shen Yu Nan.
"Just have him hand the things to you."
"However, Secretary Shen said she wants to see you and personally deliver the items to you."
Pei Wu was slightly taken aback by Ju Heng's words.
She found it strange that Shen Yu Nan took the initiative to see her.
She knew all too well how much Shen Yu-nan loathed Miss Pei.
The lounge where Shen Yu Nan was located was right next to the meeting room, separated only by a corridor.
When Pei Wu came out of the reception room and called out loudly to Ju Heng, Shen Yu Nan heard Pei Wu's voice. He got up and walked towards the door of the lounge, even overhearing the entire conversation between Pei Wu and Ju Heng.
His hand gripping the door frame tightened slightly. His legs were indeed terribly sore and weak, yet the culprit who had taken advantage of him last night was saying he didn't want to see him.
Shen Yu Nan's feelings at this moment were quite complicated, after all, he was himself at this moment, yet he was not himself.
"Cough cough..."
Shen Yu Nan's cough caught Pei Wu's attention.
Seeing the man's pale face and his seemingly fragile figure that looked like he would fall over with a gust of wind, she slightly lowered her brows.
She didn't know if her memory was faulty or what, but although she had only exchanged a few words with Shen Yu Nan at the coffee shop last time, she felt that he seemed to be in much better spirits than he was now.
"you...."
Pei Wu looked at Shen Yu Nan's appearance, but the words she wanted to say were stuck in her throat.
Shen Yu'nan was born weak, and compared to ordinary people, he was just physically weak and prone to illness. However, in recent years, his health has been deteriorating. Pei Wu later analyzed that it might be due to the depression caused by staying with a woman he disliked, coupled with physical problems and three years of continuous high-intensity work.
These factors may all be the reasons why Shen Yu'nan's health has deteriorated over the past two years. Despite being only in his early twenties, he looks as haggard as a patient who has been bedridden for many years.
Their eyes met, and Pei Wu was the first to look away.
Whether in the original owner's memories or in Pei Wu's own few interactions with Shen Yu Nan.
Pei Wu remembered Shen Yu Nan as always being respectful with his eyes downcast. It was rare for their eyes to meet. Even when their gazes met unintentionally, his eyes were as still as dead water, completely black, like a soulless puppet.
Pei Wu sympathized with Shen Yu Nan's plight.
Even though the person who treated him that way was the original owner of Pei Wu, those memories were still entangled in her mind at this moment. The person in her memory had his face and was assaulting Shen Yu Nan... ling, breasts, and Shen Yu Nan under him was either enduring or fainting... that kind of scene always made her feel uncomfortable.
Pei Wu swallowed hard.
"Come to my office."
"...."
Shen Yu Nan knew that Pei Wu was talking to him, so he silently followed behind her into the president's office.
"No need to close the door."
"...."
Shen Yunan did not close the door after hearing Pei Wu's words, nor did he close the blinds on the glass windows in the corridor.
Pei Wu walked to the desk, took a business card from the drawer and handed it to Shen Yu Nan. "This is Dr. Zhang's business card. Take it and go see him. I'll let him know in advance."
Shen Yu'nan stared at the business card Pei Wu handed him, remaining motionless for a long time. "Ahem." He coughed twice more before finally reaching out to take the business card from her.
"Thanks."
Pei Wu and Shen Yu Nan sat near the window.
Pei Wu had tried her best to make their meeting seem natural, but in the eyes of Diana's employees, today's events were nothing short of a battleground between Pei's ex and current partner. Oh right, all that's missing is a newlywed husband, Ye Shaosang, who's easy to manipulate.
"This contains evidence of substandard product quality and bribery of quality inspectors by the Xu family."
