However, it hasn't been long since the Zhou family and the Pei family dissolved their engagement.
'Could it be that Pei Wu insisted on breaking off the engagement with him because of him?'
When the unpleasant past was brought up, Zhou Hedong lost all interest in shopping. Although his facial expression remained the same as usual, he still felt uneasy. He thought that he was the eldest young master of the Zhou family, and it was naturally disgraceful to be jilted for no reason. The key point was that the person who jilted the marriage was the philandering Miss Pei.
He, Zhou Hedong, is the eldest young master of the Zhou family, renowned for his good reputation. Why should Pei Wu look down on him?
When Pei's mother negotiated with the Zhou family, she not only offered financial compensation, but also, considering the reputation of the young master Zhou, she attributed the annulment to her own daughter. She claimed that the young master Zhou was handsome and talented, and that her daughter was not worthy of such an outstanding man. She also told the public that the two families had amicably annuled the engagement and that it would not affect their future cooperation.
The cooperation between the Zhou and Pei families began with Pei Wu's grandmother's generation. The interests between the two families were deeply intertwined, and a marriage alliance was inevitable in Pei Wu's generation because Pei Wu's mother had already married, so the marriage alliance fell to Pei Wu in the next generation.
It was Pei Wu's grandmother and the elders of the Zhou family who finalized this marriage.
Zhou Hedong still knew exactly what kind of person Pei Wu, who loved extravagance and debauchery, was. However, in recent years, under the leadership of Pei Wu's mother, the Pei family had risen to a higher level and was no longer an equal to the Zhou family. For the young master of the Zhou family, being able to marry the Pei family's daughter was already a great honor.
The Zhou family has many children, and a marriage alliance with the Pei family would be a good choice, even if Pei Wu is a womanizer.
Zhou Hedong, who always considered himself superior, never expected that the woman would ask to break off their engagement.
Having lost interest in shopping, Zhou Hedong didn't ask until he got back to the car, "The Ye family? Which Ye family could possibly be related to the Pei family by marriage?"
Zhou Hedong had been thinking about it all the way, but he still had no answer.
"Didn't they say that the head of the Pei family had taken a fancy to the eldest son of the Hua family?"
"..." Zhou Hedong's secretary also pursed his lips and pondered for a while. "The Ye family, which can rival the Pei family... I really didn't think of them for the time being. Please allow me to go back and investigate." The secretary paused and continued, "Actually, the marriage between the Pei family and the Ye family doesn't affect our Zhou family's affairs. Young Master, you yourself did not agree to someone like Miss Pei. Since the engagement was dissolved according to your wishes, isn't it a good thing?"
"..." Zhou Hedong glanced at his secretary and didn't continue the topic, only instructing the driver, "Drive!"
"yes."

The wedding preparations between Pei Wu and Shen Yu Nan were being carried out quickly, as if everything was on fast-forward.
Considering Shao Sang's current health condition, the couple did not follow the wedding planner's advice to hold their wedding on an island. Instead, they held the wedding at the Pei family's main residence, choosing a star-rated hotel under the Diana brand.
Pei Wu also purchased a new property as their new home.
The location, size, and decoration style of the new house were all decided jointly by Pei Wu and her partner.
Pei Wu didn't say much, but Shen Yu Nan could always feel her unspoken respect. However, besides respect, he didn't know if this woman in front of him liked him even a little bit.
But every time Shen Yu Nan thought of this, he would feel a chill in his heart. It seemed that he had nothing that the other person could like, whether it was Shao Sang or himself.
At least Shao Sang's body was completely entrusted to this woman, but how could Shen Yu Nan be worthy of her?
The new house is not far from Diana, only about a seven or eight-minute walk away. It is not an apartment, but a villa with excellent privacy. The yard is planted with various green plants and flowers, and there are sofas and floor lamps for relaxation in the garden. Although the yard is not very big, it is still very exquisite.
The furniture and furnishings in the house were all chosen by the couple together, from the wedding bed to the smallest items like bowls and chopsticks in the kitchen.
At this moment, Pei Wu was preparing to hang their wedding photo on the white wall in the living room.
"Move a little more to the left."
Meanwhile, Shen Yu'nan was directing Pei Wu, who was hanging up the photos.
The living room has a full-wall glass door that offers a direct view of the garden. Recently, one of the glass doors has been opened for ventilation, and the scent of the garden plants and soil is being carried into the house by the early autumn wind, which is also lifting the tablecloth on the dining table.
The glass window was decorated with a large red "double happiness" character.
Pei Wu felt the wind blowing in and asked Shao Sang, "It seems like it's getting windy. Do you feel cold?"
"I'm not cold."
Upon hearing that the other party would send a message, Pei Wu nodded, straightened the photo frame, and got off the chair.
Today is the last day before the couple's wedding.
Everything was almost settled, with only a few small things still needing to be put away. After the ceremony, Shen Yu Nan was to return to the apartment Pei Wu had lent him, waiting for Pei Wu to pick him up the next morning to take him to the Pei family's main residence for the wedding ceremony.
The Pei family is a prestigious noble family in high society, with businesses spanning every industry sector. Just thinking about this makes Shen Yu Nan nervous about tomorrow's wedding.
He stared blankly at Pei Wu's figure.
He never imagined that the person he had insisted on leaving would now be the one he was going to marry.
'No, she's not herself.'
"I'll take you home to rest early today, we'll be busy tomorrow."
"yes."
After packing their things, the two locked the door and prepared to leave.
Pei Wu escorted Shen Yunan back to his apartment. Tomorrow is their wedding, and Pei Wu will be staying overnight at the Pei family residence tonight.
"Miss, you don't need to see me upstairs. You should go back to the main house and rest early; it's quite a distance from here."
"good."
Shen Yu Nan watched Pei Wu's car drive away before turning around and going upstairs.
Pei Wu also glanced in the rearview mirror at Shen Yu Nan's direction for a long time, until she could no longer see him after turning the corner, then she increased her speed and drove away.
The fact that they were getting married soon left not only Shen Yu Nan in a daze, but also Pei Wu.
The original owner's Pei Wu was about the same age as Pei Wu, but Pei Wu was used to being independent and had her own ideas, whether it was her studies in her youth or her career in adulthood.
She doesn't talk much, but she has her own ideas.
She decided to marry Shao Sang after thinking about it all night.
Initially, she came into contact with Shao Sang because of Pei Wu's interest. She was very interested in things that she had not been able to research, but she always remembered the task given by the system. From beginning to end, she never forgot her purpose when she lay down in the game pod. Her purpose in coming here was only to improve the quality of the game she was developing.
