At first she thought that Chen Ya had said something that made him unhappy, which made him hold back his anger and about to get angry at any time, which was why he showed this expression.
But after taking a closer look, she realized that it was not the case.
He had a nervous expression.
And you can tell that he is very nervous.
"I've told you this long ago," Chen Ya said, "Your Sister Hua and Xiao Cui's girlfriend are both a burning candle and a lamp-destroying oil. They both need to be cut off as soon as possible, but you two won't listen. I told you, if you lose, it'll be because of women."
"Um."
Pei Hu still had the same expression.
After a pause, Pei Hu continued, "Mr. Chen, my wife has made some progress over the years, even if it's not much. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been with her for so long. If it weren't for her supervision, I might not have achieved what I have today..."
Chen Ya glanced at him and said, "Okay, I'm not asking you to leave."
After saying this, Pei Hu suddenly smiled, and his eyes were even a little moist.
Liu Ruying keenly caught the change in his expression in the rearview mirror. This expression could only be seen on the face of someone who had been pardoned.
This shocked Liu Ruying again.
Chen Ya added, "Don't run that company of hers anymore."
"Okay, I'll do it right away." Pei Hu answered decisively.
"The people under me are not the kind of people who can get things done. If they can be fired, they can be fired. If they can't be fired, they can be made to do some mechanical work. If you can't manage them, I will let the relevant departments take charge and re-educate them," said Chen Ya.
Pei Hu's expression was serious: "I will definitely conduct a thorough investigation and arrest all those who are suspected of wrongdoing."
"I heard that you have a hunting rifle?" Chen Ya turned around and asked.
The car speeds up.
"It's been a hobby of mine since I was little. I like watching westerns. It's a form of compensation. I sometimes think it's a bad influence, but you see, I don't have any children..."
Pei Hu's voice became softer and softer, until it was as thin as a mosquito and almost inaudible.
Chen Ya said calmly, "I'll invite you to go to the United States to shoot. What's that thing you shoot called? There are a lot of fun things to do at the shooting range."
Pei Hu nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay. I'll throw away my hunting rifle when I get back. Why would I bother with a hunting rifle when there are Yankee targets to shoot at? It's outdated."
"That's enough. Let's just let it go."
After Chen Ya said this, the atmosphere in the car became harmonious.
A smile returned to Pei Hu's face.
During this process, Liu Ruying was always worried.
She was even more nervous than she had been in the bar box.
The seemingly ordinary conversation between the two of them sounded like a confrontation to her.
Moreover, to her, Chen Ya's aggressiveness was completely different from the Chen Ya she knew.
In just a few short sentences, he asked Pei Hu to dissolve Sister Hua's company, deal with Sister Hua's subordinates, and even give up his hobby.
And what about Pei Hu? He accepted all of this and even felt extremely lucky that Chen Ya didn't ask him to divorce!
This operation reminded Liu Ruying of a historical event—
Release military power with a cup of wine.
Chen Ya's behavior can only be compared to this historical event.
Pei Hu touched his nose and asked, "Brother Chen, what are you doing in the capital?"
"I originally just wanted to come and witness Old Master Lu's elegance," Chen Ya said, his eyes turning cold. "But I didn't expect that every day I see more and more things, and there are more things to do. I can't even keep up with my schedule."
"What do you want to do?" Pei Hu asked cautiously.
As he asked this question, his heart rate fluctuated like the dashboard.
He knew in his heart that if the news of Chen Ya's secret trip to the capital were to spread, it would shock everyone.
If he could get any information in advance, it would be priceless.
Chen Ya thought for a moment and said, "Recently, the aristocratic families in the capital have been a bit noisy."
"Isn't it!" Pei Hu said immediately after hearing Chen Ya say this, "You don't know, those aristocratic families have rearranged their structures now. Oh, it sounds interesting."
"Oh? How are they arranged?" Chen Ya asked.
"Their current aristocratic families are divided into lower-level aristocratic families, upper-level aristocratic families, and super-level aristocratic families." Pei Hu said.
“The lower-ranking families include Song, Liu, Yan, Han, and a bunch of other random names I forgot.
“The top families are the Xia, Qin, and Lu families of the original four great families, but the Lu family is in danger now and will soon lose its position.
"As for the superior family, there is only one, and that is the Gu family."
Pei Hu drove Chen Ya for a long time. When it came to chatting, no one knew Chen Ya's rhythm better than him.
So he always managed to interject himself into the topic at just the right moment, like a supporting actor, and what he said was fresh and interesting, which made Chen Ya listen to it without stealing the show.
Chen Ya thought for a moment and said, "Is it good or bad for such a powerful family to become so powerful?"
Pei Hu said, "Alas, what good is there in this kind of thing? Who doesn't want to seek benefits for their descendants? Who doesn't trust relatives more than outsiders? Once this kind of nepotism gets started, it's endless. Today it's the Wang family, and tomorrow it could be the Li family if the Wang family collapses. That's human nature..."
"That's my nature..." Chen Ya thought about it, then smiled and said nothing more.
"This time, there is a lot of activity for Old Master Lu's birthday." Pei Hu said suddenly.
"Oh? Can you tell me more about it?" Chen Ya asked.
Pei Hu said, "This time, almost all the noble families are going to celebrate Old Master Lu's birthday. It's a grand event. Even the most famous people in the capital have received invitations and are preparing gifts. I think the Lu family seems to be trying to use this event to reverse their decline."
