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

A deep darkness spread across Shen Huaiyu's eyes, and his Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily.

He quickly looked away and picked up the water glass beside him.

His Adam's apple bobbed as the cool water entered his throat, temporarily suppressing the restlessness rising within him.

He suddenly remembered what happened that night.

What kind of curse did that woman cast on him?

Shen Huaiyu tightened his grip on the water glass, his voice slightly hoarse: "It's alright, most people can't get up there."

Pei Jinhe blinked, her clear eyes shimmering with tears: "But I can't get up there either."

Shen Huaiyu placed the cup on the table: "I'll have someone grant you access tomorrow."

Pei Jinhe was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook her head, realizing what she meant: "That's not what I meant."

Her intention was that she didn't want to go.

But Shen Huaiyu clearly misunderstood.

Although she didn't quite understand the intricacies of the company, she knew that places like the president's office were only for people who were extremely trusted.

Shen Huaiyu actually granted her the privilege of going up so casually.

Does he really trust her that much?

Or does he think she poses no threat at all?

Pei Jinhe thought for a moment.

I think the second possibility is the most likely.

After all, even if she were to look at those so-called confidential documents, she wouldn't be able to make sense of them.

"That way it will be convenient for you to come for lunch in the future."

Shen Huaiyu didn't give her a chance to refuse and asked directly, "What do you want to eat tomorrow?"

Pei Jinhe bit her chopsticks: "Anything is fine, I'm not picky."

After finishing their meal, the two returned to their bedroom.

Shen Huaiyu was holding a change of clothes and preparing to go to the next room to take a shower.

Pei Jinhe approached Shen Huaiyu, palm up, a small chip appearing in his field of vision: "Shen Huaiyu, this is for you."

"I'll take it to the group tomorrow for them to study."

The chip was pressed against the palm of his hand. When Shen Huaiyu took the chip, his fingertips touched the skin of the girl's palm, and his fingers paused.

The touch on my fingertips was cool and delicate, and the tingling electric sensation traveled along the veins in my fingers to my heart, making my heart feel soft.

Pei Jinhe recoiled as if electrocuted, her cheeks burning, and she stammered nervously, "I...I don't really want others to know my identity. If there are any problems, I can provide remote guidance."

Take the chips, that's fine.

Why don't you take it back now that you've got it?

Shen Huaiyu looked at the girl in front of him. A faint blush spread across her fair cheeks, like a blooming peach blossom, making her charming and beautiful.

He smiled and said, "Okay."

"I'm going to take a shower first."

Pei Jinhe dashed into the bathroom like a gust of wind.

Shen Huaiyu smiled silently.

This little girl is quite fun.

Pei Jinhe didn't wash her hair today. While taking a shower, she casually tied her hair into a bun, with a few strands of hair hanging down beside her ears, making her earlobes appear even smaller and whiter.

As the bathroom door opened, a wave of warm steam mixed with shower gel filled the air, and the previously flowing air seemed to freeze for a moment.

Shen Huaiyu leaned lazily against the headboard, two buttons of his pajamas undone, revealing his well-defined neck, sexy Adam's apple, and muscular chest muscles that were faintly visible beneath his clothes. Paired with his devastatingly handsome face, he was the epitome of a seductive vixen.

Looking at this 'vibrant and sensual' scene, Pei Jinhe couldn't help but exclaim: This man is really handsome!

Shen Huaiyu looked up and saw Pei Jinhe staring at him, then looked down at his open collar.

Where is this little girl looking?

Seeing her adorable blank expression, Shen Huaiyu felt the urge to tease her, so he asked knowingly, "What are you looking at?"

I wasn't looking at you.

Pei Jinhe only realized what she had said after the words were out of her mouth.

How could she have accidentally blurted out her innermost thoughts?!

How embarrassing!

Her dignity has been completely shattered to pieces!

Shen Huaiyu laughed out loud.

The man's magnetic laughter echoed in the quiet room, carrying a hint of deep, husky sexiness.

Pei Jinhe was already incredibly embarrassed, and now, hearing his laughter, her face burned with embarrassment, and she wished she could disappear into the ground.

Shen Huaiyu's dark phoenix eyes were filled with twinkling smiles, like stars scattered on a black curtain, beautiful and profound.

"Pei Jinhe," he called her name.

"Hmm?" Pei Jinhe's voice was soft, embarrassed and at a loss for words.

Shen Huaiyu praised, "The cookies you made today were also delicious."

"You like it?" Pei Jinhe's eyes lit up. "I'll make more when I have time."

When she gave it to him, she was worried that Shen Huaiyu wouldn't like it.

Shen Huaiyu nodded: "Okay."

This girl is much more relaxed now than when she first arrived.

……

The next day.

Zhou Yuanche invited all his cronies to his home.

They arrived too early; some people were still sleepy-eyed, their hair a mess, like a chicken coop.

Guo Tianhao yawned and asked, "Brother Che, what do you want with us?"

Zhou Yuanche's handsome face was cold and stern, his voice filled with barely suppressed anger: "Who leaked our bet to Jinhe?"

The people who were still drowsy instantly woke up from their sleepiness upon hearing this.

They looked at each other, completely bewildered, not knowing what had happened.

Only Ji Yuyan bit her lip, her eyes filled with resentment and anger.

That Pei Jinhe is a real menace!

She's already agreed to marry Master Shen, yet she's still so dishonest!

What's even more infuriating is that she actually dared to try and seduce Brother Che!

Guo Tianhao spoke first: "Brother Che, we've always remembered what you said. How could we possibly reveal the bet to Pei Jinhe?"

"Brother Che, what exactly happened?"

"Jinhe broke up with me because someone sent her a video showing what happened between us at the karaoke bar that day."

As Zhou Yuanche spoke, he became extremely annoyed. He took a cigarette from the pack, lit it, and took a deep drag.

They were delusional, trying to suppress the strange feelings in their hearts through this method.

"Brother Che, you and Pei Jinhe only got together because of a bet. If you break up, you break up. What's the big deal?"

"What do you know?!"

Zhou Yuanche glared at him coldly, smoke billowing out, his handsome face now bearing a hint of ferocity: "Pei Jinhe has some connection with Dean He Bing's apprentice. I suspect it's because of this that he took back the chip!"

Ji Yuyan feigned tears, saying, "Brother Che, please don't be angry with my sister. She was indeed too willful this time. I apologize on her behalf."

Her words were tantamount to placing all the blame on Pei Jinhe.

Guo Tianhao said bluntly, "Brother Che, Pei Jinhe is really going too far. Doesn't she know how much you sacrificed to gain the support of Dean He Bing's disciple? Because of this little thing, all your previous efforts have been wasted."

Zhou Yuanche flicked his cigarette ash and coldly glanced at the group of people standing in front of him: "You really have nothing to do with the leaked bet?"
