Third Master, please restrain yourself. Our marriage is a marriage of convenience.

Pei Jinhe retorted, "I'm not in a relationship."

She got married right away.

So there's nothing wrong with saying you're not in a relationship.

Han Wanying pressed, "Really? You're not lying to us?"

Pei Jinhe held up three fingers: "I swear I'm absolutely not in a relationship."

Chu Yunyan breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. It was good that he wasn't in a relationship; if he had, he wouldn't have had a chance.

At this moment, Gao Xin shouted, "Team Leader Pei, there's a problem with my system."

"They're here, they're here. Get to work, stop gossiping." Pei Jinhe was afraid that if they kept pressing her for answers, she would give herself away. Now that she finally had a chance to leave, she quickly ran over.

Chu Yunyan watched Pei Jinhe's retreating figure, his eyes narrowing slightly behind his glasses.

……

At noon, Pei Jinhe went to Shen Huaiyu's place for lunch as usual.

Shen Huaiyu specially asked Shen Feng to buy lunch today. Although Pei Jinhe likes to cook, she is busy with research every day. Shen Huaiyu was worried that cooking lunch would tire her out.

It's fine to do it occasionally; you can't let your wife spend all her time in the kitchen every day.

Shen Huaiyu ate his food slowly and deliberately, his voice calm: "Pei Jinhe, for your safety, you should come to the company with me from now on, and don't get out of the car early."

Pei Jinhe blinked her innocent big eyes: "What if people in the company find out about our relationship?"

Shen Huaiyu said calmly, "We are a legally married couple. If someone sees us, I will show them our marriage certificate."

Pei Jinhe frowned: "But won't I be targeted by people in the company if I do that?"

Shen Huaiyu chuckled: "Have you been reading too many novels?"

The Shen Group is his territory. To target the boss's wife within the group, that person must have some mental issues.

Pei Jinhe spoke the truth: "It's true. The last time I went to Qin Yuyang's hospital to get the USB drive, it was because someone mistakenly thought I was Qin Yuyang's friend and staged a theft at Grandpa Qin's birthday banquet."

"And that guy who hired someone to kidnap me last time, if others find out about our relationship, it might cause a lot of trouble. I want to live a couple more years."

In high society circles, there are quite a few people eyeing the position of the matriarch of the Shen family.

People can do anything for profit sometimes.

He didn't want to cause trouble for himself.

What if another one like the two of them comes along?

Although their methods didn't cause her any real harm, they were still quite annoying.

What if another powerful person comes along and really harms her?

She's so young, she doesn't want to die young.

Shen Huaiyu felt that Pei Jinhe's words made sense. After a moment of silence, the man said, "I will handle it well. I will not make it public until you agree."

It's not too late to go public once Pei Jinhe has fallen completely in love with him.

Pei Jinhe thought for a moment and said, "Let's wait until the matter is made public, at least until the intelligent medical robot is successfully developed."

In fact, she has never liked to show her face in public, otherwise, with her status as Dean He Bing's personal disciple, she would be able to do whatever she wants in the scientific research field.

Shen Huaiyu smiled indulgently: "Okay, I'll do whatever you say."

……

As winter sets in, the weather is getting colder and colder, and the three-day New Year's Day holiday is just around the corner.

After working so hard for so long, I can finally take a good rest.

After washing up, Pei Jinhe, dressed in her pajamas, leaned lazily against the headboard and played on her phone.

While scrolling through videos, I suddenly came across a new type of intelligent robot.

Pei Jinhe's gaze narrowed slightly; this intelligent robot seemed somewhat familiar.

She got up, went to the table, turned on her computer, and began researching this intelligent robot.

After some searching, she discovered that the robot came from the Zhou Group. She then looked at the robot's functions, chips, and various specifications.

After reading it, her expression became very serious, and her eyes were filled with anger.

That Zhou Yuanche!

They actually dared to release the product after she retrieved the chip!

The bedroom door was pushed open, and Pei Jinhe turned around to look. The man was tall and slender, with a refined and aloof demeanor.

Pei Jinhe asked, "Shen Huaiyu, have you seen the new smart robot that Zhou's Group just released?"

Shen Huaiyu's expression was cold: "I saw it. It's 60% similar to our group's smart home system. Isn't this something you developed? Why would something similar appear in the Deshi Group? Surely there's a mole within the group?"

In fact, he didn't think the Zhou Group had the ability to plant spies within the Shen Group.

But how do you explain this robot?

Pei Jinhe deliberately asked, "Aren't you worried that I leaked it?"

Shen Huaiyu replied without hesitation, "What good would it do you to just say it and do it?"

Upon hearing this, Pei Jinhe's lips curved into a beautiful smile, but then her expression turned serious: "Actually, strictly speaking, it really does have something to do with me."

Shen Huaiyu was taken aback.

Is there really a connection?

Pei Jinhe recounted the whole story: "I dated Zhou Yuanche for a while before. He wanted to enter the scientific research field, so he asked my master for help. My master didn't agree. At the time, I was also in love and saw how anxious he was about this, so I gave his group the A-chip that I had developed."

"But he didn't know that I was the developer of the A chip, nor did he know that he was my apprentice, Dean He Bing. It was because of the A chip that he managed to get his father to relinquish some of his power and thus become the president."

At this point, Pei Jinhe showed a look of disgust: "His R&D staff were too useless. We gave them the chips, but they couldn't figure them out. I had just broken up with Zhou Yuanche at the time, so I took the opportunity to take the chips back."

"The chip was taken back, and in theory he shouldn't have been able to continue research and development. But he secretly continued research and development behind my back. They didn't fully understand my chip, so the similarity is only 60%."

After saying that, she asked Shen Huaiyu, "Will this affect you?"

Shen Huaiyu said with an air of strategic mastery, "He can't affect me yet."

The Zhou Group is nothing to him.

After a pause, Shen Huaiyu looked at Pei Jinhe: "How do you plan to handle this?"

Pei Jinhe said with disgust, "We definitely can't let him off so easily. We've already broken up, yet he still pulls this disgusting stunt."

This time, Zhou Yuanche really disgusted her completely; he actually resorted to plagiarism.

Being in love really does cloud judgment.

Fortunately, she managed to cut her losses in time. Otherwise, if he had only found out the truth when the robot was launched, she would have suffered a huge loss.

She is now incredibly grateful to Ji Yuyan for the video she sent back then.
