Nie Yu forced a smile. “Professor Sun, we should leave the company’s project should…” to someone else.

Before he could finish speaking…

Pei Yunge said slowly, “President Nie, Professor Sun is here to look for you this time.”

Hearing this…

Nie Yu froze and slowly took the project book from Sun Jiaping. “It’s been hard on you.”

However, Sun Jiaping could not help feeling excited. “Thank you, President Nie, for giving me this chance.”

However, the rest of the people’s eyes widened.

Pei Yunge had sent Nie Yu’s younger brother to the hospital. Wasn’t Nie Yu going to pursue the matter?

This was a slap in his face!

“You’re welcome.”

Nie Yu smiled weakly, but his eyes swept over the girl beside him.

He was not the benefactor Sun Jiaping should thank.

At this moment…

Tang Boyang’s expression became complicated as he started to size up Pei Yunge seriously.

It was obvious that Nie Yu was afraid of Pei Yunge.

But how was a young lady of the Qin family worthy of the fear of the person-in-charge of Higgins Corporation?!

…

In the supermarket.

Pei Yunge was about to go buy something when Sun Jiaping pulled her back.

She saw Sun Jiaping walking in front of her with a can of milk and a bottle of water. There was also some bread, biscuits, and candy.

“Miss, the bill.”

With that said, Sun Jiaping took out the most common small plastic bag from his faded pocket. There were some coins and paper money inside.

Pei Yunge’s eyes moved. “Professor, let me pay.”

“I’m your teacher. How can I let a student pay?”

With that said, Sun Jiaping opened his ‘wallet’ and took out a 20-yuan note. He counted some change for the salesperson.

After thanking the salesperson, he handed the milk and bread snacks to Pei Yunge.

He even muttered with a smile, “My granddaughter said that this milk is very delicious. She’ll be angry if I don’t buy it for her usually. You children will definitely like it.”

Pei Yunge hid the darkness in her eyes and took the snacks Sun Jiaping handed her.

“Thank you, Professor. Aren’t you going to leave one for your granddaughter?”

Sun Jiaping paused. “Her?”

A smile appeared on his face, but his voice was hoarse and bitter. “She’s sick and can’t eat this.”

Pei Yunge stopped talking. When she was drinking this can of strawberry milk quietly, she felt Sun Jiaping, who was beside her, quickly wipe his tears.

He pretended as if nothing had happened and started to persuade Pei Yunge to study seriously.

“Professor, how much more do you need for your granddaughter’s medical fees?”

Pei Yunge was silent for a moment before she asked.

It was obvious that Sun Jiaping did not expect Pei Yunge to ask this, but he still patted her shoulder. “It’s alright, don’t worry. We’re just short of the medical fees for the surgery. As long as we win this project, I can give Jingjing the best medical resources.”

He said with a smile, “After this surgery, if there’s a chance… you can meet her too.”

“There will be a chance.” Pei Yunge’s lips curved.

“That girl is smart, but she’s not likable.”

Although she said this, Pei Yunge could still see the love and indulgence in Sun Jiaping’s eyes.

After chatting for a while, Sun Jiaping insisted that Pei Yunge not send him to the bus stop.

Pei Yunge watched from afar as he covered the wound on his arm and his thin back disappeared at the end. Nie Yu’s voice sounded in her ear.

“Boss, I’m sorry.”

Pei Yunge did not even look at him and only took the project book he handed her.

She said carelessly, “Notify everyone that Higgins has an executive meeting tomorrow. Those who can’t come don’t have to come in the future.”
