I accidentally messed with a wealthy family, and my blind date was the CEO.

"do not speak."

Pei Jingchuan said again gently but firmly. He sat on the edge of the bed and caressed the back of her hand. The delicate touch seemed to convey his apology and care.

Jiang Yuzhu nodded, and she clearly felt the tension radiating from Pei Jingchuan.

She knew that this kidnapping had made this normally calm man feel unprecedented fear.

Pei Jingchuan looked at Jiang Yuzhu's face and secretly swore in his heart that he would never let something like this happen again.

He had already experienced the panic of losing her, and he could no longer bear the pain.

Pei Jingchuan lowered his head slightly, his eyes as steady as an ancient well, and his hand still held Jiang Yuzhu's tightly, as if this could convey all his determination and protection to her.

His voice, which usually spoke few words, now silently made a promise to her in his heart: "Yuzhu, no matter when and where, I will protect you and prevent you from any harm."

Jiang Yuzhu felt his firmness and reassurance, and her eyelids gradually became heavy. She knew that even in her dream, she would no longer have any fear. Because he, Pei Jingchuan, is by her side.

The sky in the morning showed a light blue, and a rising sun jumped up on the skyline, dyeing the clouds in the east red.

There was silence in the car driven by Pei Yanqing, except for the faint sound of tires rubbing against the ground.

Pei Shangde was sitting in the passenger seat, his eyes flickering, and there was a faint and imperceptible nervousness on his face.

The vibration of the cell phone broke the silence of the carriage. Pei Yanqing glanced at the caller ID and saw a message from Gu Qiyang.

His fingers lightly crossed the screen, and the tension in the corner of his eyes suddenly turned into relief: "Your sister-in-law is safe, Jingchuan is by her side."

Pei Yanqing replied briefly: "That's good."

Then Gu Qiyang sent another text message, "What are you going to do with Pei Shangde?"

Pei Yanqing raised the corners of his mouth slightly and replied: "As planned."

Then, he turned to Pei Shangde beside him, his eyes suddenly became sharp: "Pei Shangde, your plane will not be delayed, everything is over."

The vehicle driven by Pei Yanqing slowly drove out of the airport passage and headed towards the city. It was no longer the broad avenue of the airport, but a busy street full of morning vehicles.

Pei Shangde noticed the anomaly in the route and asked expressionlessly: "This is not the way to the airport."

An imperceptible sneer appeared at the corner of Pei Yanqing's lips. She did not answer his question directly, but simply said lightly: "Pei Shangde, you dare to take advantage of my sister-in-law. You are really overestimating your capabilities."

Pei Shangde's eyes flashed with uneasiness: "What do you want to do?"

"Me?" Pei Yanqing replied coldly, "You should think clearly about what you should really be afraid of."

The car gradually stopped in front of a calm building, which was the police station in the city center.

Pei Yanqing put out the fire and turned to look at Pei Shangde calmly.

"You should pay the price for your actions now." Pei Yanqing opened the car door, and the morning wind brought a bit of chill, blowing away the depressing atmosphere in the car.

Pei Shangde's face was gloomy and his lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to defend something, but found that he had no chance.

Slowly getting out of the car, his eyes hesitant and confused, he finally realized his true situation, and he walked step by step towards the door of the police station.

The hospital corridor is filled with the smell of disinfectant mixed with medicine, and the clean white walls reflect two tall figures.

Pei Yanqing and Gu Qiyang walked hurriedly but steadily. Every time they walked through a ward door, they could hear the conversations between doctors and patients coming from inside.

Pushing open the door of the ward, the two entered a spacious and bright ward.

Through the window, the rising sunlight shines on the potted plants on the windowsill, and there are still a few drops of dew hanging on the leaves.

Jiang Yuzhu sat back on the bed. Although her face was dull, her eyes were still clear and firm. Seeing them, she smiled.

"Yan Qing, Qi Yang, I'm really sorry for making you worry about me." She apologized softly, with a quiet sense of guilt in her voice.

There was a hint of tenderness in Pei Yanqing's eyes, and he said hurriedly: "Sister-in-law, how can you say that? We should do it."

Gu Qiyang, who was next to him, waved his hand easily and said casually: "Yes, Sister Yuzhu, look at you, you make us feel like outsiders. As long as you are fine, this little thing is not worth mentioning."

Jiang Yuzhu shook his head, with a faint smile on his lips: "I'm fine. You still have a lot to do, so you don't have to stay with me here."

Pei Yanqing was about to say something, but Gu Qiyang had already taken over the topic: "Sister Yuzhu, let's go out first. Let us know if you need anything."

Here, Chen Ting walked through the hospital corridor at her usual fast pace, her figure looking particularly eager under the blue and white light.

She pushed open the door to the ward and saw only the figure sitting on the bed.

Jiang Yuzhu looked at her, the tranquility in his eyes seemed to calm all his uneasiness.

"Yuzhu, what's wrong with you? You just experienced the aftermath of a disaster, why..." Chen Ting's tone was full of dissatisfaction and worry. Her words were straightforward, but she also revealed deep concern.

Jiang Yuzhu was not surprised by Chen Ting's frankness, and softly comforted him: "Listen, I'm fine, this is just a small accident."

Chen Ting sat down on the chair next to her and frowned: "A small accident? You are already lying in the hospital now. What's a small accident?" She sighed and softened her tone, "It really scared me to death. Yuzhu.”

Jiang Yuzhu reached out and gently held Chen Ting's hand, with a hint of warmth flashing in his eyes: "Thank you, Ting, for caring so much about me."

Chen Ting shook his head, and his usual fierceness seemed to be softened in this quiet ward: "Humph, it's good to know. We can't have such a 'little accident' again in the future."

A faint smile appeared on Jiang Yuzhu's lips: "I will be careful."

Pei Jingchuan's appearance was just like his usual style, silent but decisive and powerful.

The door was gently pushed open, and his figure stood out in the door frame.

He walked into the ward and locked his eyes directly on Jiang Yuzhu on the bed.

"Yuzhu, the doctor said there is nothing wrong with your health and you can be discharged." Pei Jingchuan's voice was low and calm, just like his eyes, showing unquestionable determination.

Jiang Yuzhu raised her eyebrows slightly, but her voice remained calm: "Have the discharge procedures been completed so quickly?"

Pei Jingchuan nodded lightly without saying anything. He walked to the bed and gently picked her up with gentle yet powerful movements. "Rest needs to be done at home. The environment here is not suitable for you to fully recuperate."

Chen Ting looked at this scene and unconsciously smiled, but her words were still a bit playful: "I'll treat you to dinner tonight, just to celebrate Yu Zhu's discharge from the hospital. How about it?"
