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

Pei Jinhe rode in Shen Huaiyu's car to the company, getting off one intersection early as usual.

As soon as she reached the entrance of the company compound, she heard someone call her name: "Jinhe, what are you doing here?"

When Ji Zhenshan approached Pei Jinhe, perhaps considering that Pei Jinhe was still useful, his tone softened a bit when he spoke to her.

Pei Jinhe's eyes were indifferent, and she remained silent.

Offering unsolicited favors is either a sign of malice or theft.

Ji Zhenshan's presence here must have a purpose.

Ji Zhenshan glanced inside the company compound: "Are you here to see President Shen? Could you take me in with you?"

Without an appointment, you can't see Shen Huaiyu.

Although Pei Jinhe and Shen Huaiyu were developing their relationship, the marriage had not yet been finalized, so he dared not speak carelessly, and he didn't have the guts to call himself Shen Huaiyu's father-in-law.

Pei Jinhe's voice was neither cold nor warm: "No, I don't have that much power."

It turned out that Ji Zhenshan had come to see Shen Huaiyu.

Pei Jinhe secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

She thought her identity had been exposed.

It startled her.

Seeing her cold demeanor, Ji Zhenshan felt a surge of anger, but without Pei Jinhe, he couldn't see Shen Huaiyu. So he could only say in a gentle tone, "Then could you ask President Shen to come out and meet me? I have something to say to President Shen."

"No." Pei Jinhe refused again.

Ji Zhenshan's face turned ashen: "Then what can you do?"

Pei Jinhe said calmly, "There's nothing I can do."

Seeing her unyielding attitude, Ji Zhenshan couldn't contain his anger: "Jinhe, the Ji family has raised you for so many years. Without the Ji family, how could you have had the chance to marry President Shen!"

Pei Jinhe's lips curled into a mocking smile: "Since the Shen family is so good, why don't you let Ji Yuyan marry into their family?"

It is widely rumored that Shen Huaiyu is violent, ruthless, and cold-blooded.

Any man who truly loves his daughter would not let her marry into such a family.

Ji Yuyan is the only son of the Ji family, and they would never bear to let her marry into the Shen family and suffer.

But they couldn't bear to part with such a good backer as the Shen family, so they pushed Pei Jinhe out.

Ji Zhenshan was rendered speechless.

If the Shen family is really a good place to go.

How could it possibly be Pei Jinhe's turn?

Ji Zhenshan changed the subject: "When are you and President Shen planning to get married?"

"I don't know." Pei Jinhe knew nothing when asked.

Ji Zhenshan directly ordered, "When you're at it later, ask President Shen if it's best to finalize the marriage arrangements as soon as possible."

In his view, Pei Jinhe has been eating and living in the Ji family's house all these years, so she should sacrifice for the Ji family.

"And then what?" Pei Jinhe asked in return.

Ji Zhenshan: "We'll get married naturally."

"And then you'll ask for benefits for your family, right?" Pei Jinhe revealed all of Ji Zhenshan's plans. "Or perhaps you can use Shen Huaiyu's father-in-law's name to get benefits for the Ji family, right?"

Ji Zhenshan said earnestly, "Jinhe, we are family. The Ji family is also your grandmother's hard work. Your grandmother even left you shares. Strictly speaking, part of the Ji family is also yours. The Ji family is your maternal family. They can support you in any situation."

"To back me up?"

Pei Jinhe reacted as if she'd heard a joke: "Are you sure you're not sending me to be a scapegoat?"

Fortunately, she didn't tell them that she had married Shen Huaiyu, otherwise they might have forced her to get benefits from the Shen family.

There's no way this is even remotely possible, let alone a door.

Pei Jinhe didn't want to waste her breath on him: "Alright, there's no family relationship between us at all. You don't need to put on an act in front of me. To be honest, it's disgusting."

"Pei Jinhe! Your grandmother was so good to you when she was alive, and you don't even care about the company she founded?!" Ji Zhenshan's eyes blazed with anger.

This adopted daughter is usually silent at home, so why has she become so eloquent now?

"Am I the heir to the company? Your inability to protect the family business is your own fault."

Pei Jinhe paused slightly, then said, "How about you give me the company? I guarantee I'll double its performance. What do you say?"

Ji Zhenshan stared angrily.

They still want the Ji family.

That's quite an appetite!

"I won't help with the Ji family's affairs, so stop daydreaming."

After Pei Jinhe finished speaking, she walked straight past him and went inside, leaving Ji Zhenshan standing there in a helpless rage.

Did they really think they could rest easy just because they've latched onto the Shen family?

Once you marry into the Shen family, let's see what kind of good life you'll have!

When they get kicked out, they'll have to slink back to the Ji family and beg for shelter!

Pei Jinhe arrived at the research lab.

Wen Nianshu smiled warmly at Pei Jinhe, her red lips curving slightly: "Team Leader Pei, good morning."

Pei Jinhe nodded: "Good morning."

Upon entering the research lab, everyone began to busy themselves at their respective posts.

Wen Nianshu reported, "Team leader, the virtual simulation system has been completed."

After confirming that everything was correct, Pei Jinhe said, "Keep a close eye on it and record any problems that arise during the simulation."

Gao Xin: "Team leader, there's no error in the language system."

Hu Zhiwei: "Team leader, the power system is also fine."

"Everything is normal on our end as well," Han Wanying said.

Pei Jinhe gave the order: "Begin the simulation experiment."

This simulation experiment is a very simple appendectomy.

The theoretical basis for intelligent medical robots is basically sound; now it's all about practical application.

The morning passed by silently.

After reviewing the data, Pei Jinhe smiled and said to everyone, "Everything is normal. Thank you all for your hard work."

Song Mingchuan let out a long sigh: "I feel a kind of empty beauty in my mind."

Wei Chenghang joked, "If you ask me, it's because your IQ has melted away like cream."

His words made everyone burst into laughter.

"Let's go eat." Han Wanying's brain had been working overtime all morning, and she was starving.

Pei Jinhe pursed her lips slightly: "You guys go ahead, I won't go."

Song Mingchuan stroked his chin: "Jinhe, you never eat lunch with us these days, could it be because you're secretly dating someone behind our backs?"

Chu Yunyan's pupils suddenly contracted.

Pei Jinhe's mouth moved faster than her brain: "No."

Chu Yunyan asked seemingly casually, "So what did you do at noon?"

Pei Jinhe racked her brains to find an excuse: "I'm reporting the research progress to President Shen."

Han Wanying frowned: "Is it necessary to report every day?"

Pei Jinhe's brain was working at high speed: "It's absolutely necessary. After all, they donated so much money to our research institute, so we definitely have to be nice to them."

It wasn't that she didn't trust them, but rather that her marriage to Shen Huaiyu was a contractual one, and they were to divorce in a year.

The fewer people who know about it, the better.

Wei Chenghang, afraid of disturbing her work, said, "Then you should go quickly."

Gao Xin said to Hu Zhiwei, "Our team leader is really dedicated."

Hu Zhiwei smiled and said, "Who says otherwise?"
