Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

That was not what she meant.

Anna didn’t feel as bad when she was being laughed at by the servants.

However, at the moment, it was as if someone had torn a piece of her heart.

It revealed the worries that she had hidden for ten years.

A waiter chased after her. The guard at the door also walked towards her.

When the eighteen-year-old Anna cried, everyone instinctively wanted to protect her, except for Pei Huai.

He was silent for a few seconds before driving away.

The people who came surrounded Anna and asked her what was wrong and if she needed help.

Anna didn’t say anything. Her tears fell on her lace dress.

Although Pei Huai had left early, they managed to accomplish what they needed to do.

Xu Mingzhi successfully connected with the key people of the project. Pei Shizhan accompanied her. He did not speak much, but he played a very important role.

He stood beside Xu Mingzhi, telling everyone that the Pei and the Xu Corporations were working together.

After the social gathering ended, Xu Mingzhi clinked glasses with Pei Shizhan and said a few polite words.

The surrounding guests looked towards the entrance in unison, causing Xu Mingzhi and Pei Shizhan to also look over.

It was the duke’s family.

“Where have you been? Why didn’t you tell us before you left?” The duke was worried, but he couldn’t help but raise his voice.

“Don’t scare her…” When Miyazawa Rei saw the tears flowing down Anna’s lowered cheeks, she paused for a moment. Her heart ached. “Anna, why are you crying? Who bullied you?”

Miyazawa Ta narrowed his eyes. “Who dared to bully you? Tell me.”

The duke became even more anxious, but Anna just shook her head and did not say anything.

The duke was so angry that he pointed at her and left. “What won’t you open

your mouth?”

The guests all withdrew their gazes and discussed with each other in low voices.

Pei Shizhan’s expression became serious.

Xu Mingzhi looked at Anna. The little girl was beautiful. When she cried, it was heartbreaking, but…she just didn’t like her.

At this moment, Pei Shizhan, who was standing beside her, walked past her.

“Madam Xu..

Pei Shizhan turned around and smiled gently. “I know her, please excuse me.” Xu Mingzhi nodded.

When the duke saw Pei Shizhan coming over, his tightly furrowed brows instantly relaxed.

The two of them greeted each other.

There were a few groups of guests in the middle, and Xu Mingzhi could vaguely hear what they said.

“What? Your son was here too?” The duke’s voice was deep, but now it was raised, and she could hear it clearly.

Pei Shizhan nodded and withdrew his gaze from Anna without batting an eyelid.

The duke followed his gaze and looked at his daughter. He seemed to have understood something.

The duke’s tone sounded as if he had missed out on a hundred million yuan. “I was busy just now and missed him. Why did he leave so early?”

“There are some work-related matters.” Pei Shizhan said, “you will definitely see him again.”

The duke did not seem to want to give up just like that. “Your son is here on a business trip for a few days? You must tell him to…”

Pei Shizhan smiled and declined politely. “Next time then. He’s going back tomorrow. Moreover, he’s here with his future mother-in-law this time. I’m afraid he’s not in the mood to think about anything else.”

He said the last sentence very casually, but the duke understood the hint. The duke smiled awkwardly. “I saw the news too. Xu Corporation is so lucky.”

Xu Mingzhi continued to listen until someone came to talk to her.

At night.

Servants came and went, serving the guests.

Before attending the banquet, there were many people on the duke’s list who needed to be contacted. But now that the banquet was over, the topic of conversation only revolved around the Third Master of the Pei family.

Miyazawa Rei instructed the servants to serve a lighter dinner. There was no need to serve her. If she ate during the day, she would not eat at night.

She was very strict with her body.

Anna had been in a daze ever since she came back. In the duke’s eyes, she had lost her manners and composure.

The atmosphere in the living room wasn’t very relaxed. Miyazawa Ta was very tactful. “I’ll go upstairs and do some work.” The duke nodded.

Before he went upstairs, he glanced at Anna.

Twas no trace of pity on his face at this moment. In fact, there was even some unspeakable excitement.

It was hidden under his gentle appearance.

The duke looked at the servant, who walked up to Anna. “Miss, let me help you upstairs to get changed.”

Anna nodded blankly and followed her upstairs.

After she left, the duke sighed in disappointment.

After Miyazawa Rei took care of all the household affairs, she finally asked the

servants to prepare a nutritious soup and send it upstairs. Miyazawa Ta and Anna each had one.

“Alright, go rest now.” The duke waved his hand irritably.

Miyazawa Rei glanced at him and smiled. She brewed a cup of tea and placed it on his table before sitting down beside him.

“If you ask me, the CEO of the Xu Corporation has foresight.”

The duke glanced at her.

Miyazawa Rei slowly said, “last year, the Xu Corporation suddenly moved back to China and lost so many projects. At that time, I found it strange, but now I finally understand.”

“She went back for the Pei Corporation. I heard that she made Madam Du very happy.”

The duke narrowed his eyes. “A woman who can manage a corporation by herself is not simple.”

Miyazawa Rei sat up straight. “From the looks of Anna today, I’m pretty sure she likes Pei Huai very much. If they can get together, then they’ll be a true match of equal status.”

The duke said, “you can see it too?”

Miyazawa Rei smiled and nodded.

“You’ve always cared about her.” The duke looked pleased. “If she can marry into the Pei family, our son’s career will be more stable in the future.”

Miyazawa Rei covered her mouth and smiled. “I’m happy to hear that, but this concerns Anna’s lifelong happiness. I see that she really likes thim, so I wanted to help her fulfill her wish. It’s good that Ta has you to help him.”

The duke put his arm around her shoulder and was moved. “I’m always away on business trips. I’m glad you’re taking care of Anna.”

Halfway through his sentence, he seemed to have thought of something and suddenly looked at her.

“You said you would help her fulfill her wish…how do you plan to do that?”

Miyazawa Rei smiled, “Anna’s biggest disadvantage now is that she’s too far away from there. I know you can’t bear to part with your daughter, but we can’t wait for him to come back.. For the sake of Anna’s happiness, you have to let her go…’ o
