Under the Gaze of Authority

"Go pour a cup of hot water." 

Listening to Pei Yimo not saying anything, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. 

Although it was embarrassing to admit, every one of them was several years older than Pei Yimo but for some reason, in front of this young man, they all felt a sense of torture even just making eye contact with him. 

But soon, they also had doubts in their eyes. Why did the usually serious CEO suddenly need hot water? 

Qianyou also hesitated for a moment, but got up and went to the lounge to pour hot water. 

Pei Yimo turned to Manager Zhang: "Continue." 

Manager Zhang began to explain the details of the plan again, and soon everyone forgot about the little incident just now. 

In less than a minute, Qianyou walked in with a cup of hot water. She placed the hot water in front of Pei Yimo, only to hear the man order in a deep voice, "Drink it." 

Qianyou looked up in confusion and met the man's sharp eyes like a hawk. 

"Drink it. There is still a long time before the meeting ends. Don't let me see you frown again!"

"Typical Pei's command, Qian You seemed to hear the concern in the man's words towards her.

Now, the conference room was silent, and everyone looked towards the unremarkable assistant secretary. Their gaze went back and forth between Pei Yimo and Qian You, wondering about their relationship. Sitting across from Qian You, Si Yan's gaze stopped on Pei Yimo, and a flash of contemplation passed through his eyes.

Feeling the unusual atmosphere in the conference room and intimidated by Pei Yimo's authority, Qian You didn't hesitate and picked up her cup to drink. After drinking the hot water, her throat indeed felt much better.

An hour later, the long meeting finally ended. Qian You packed up her things and was about to ask for leave from Pei Yimo when suddenly a strong fragrance wafted in with the wind, even a sick person like her could smell it.

She looked up, and a young woman dressed in a trendy manner was already standing in front of her, looking at her arrogantly and saying with some disdain, "Is Mo inside?"

Fiancée...Wen

"I'm sorry, miss. Do you have an appointment?"

The woman with delicate makeup on her face showed a disdainful smile, and her seductive red lips moved as she said, "What a joke. Don't you know who I am? I am Zhu Qingya. Do I need to make an appointment with you to see my fiancé?"

At this moment, Manru was not around, and everyone else was eagerly anticipating the drama between Qianyou and Zhu Qingya. No one would come to help. Faced with the woman's overbearing demeanor, it was clear that she was not easy to deal with.

Deep in her heart, Qianyou sighed and resisted the dizziness, trying to keep herself alert as she said, "I'm sorry, Miss Zhu. This is a company, and you cannot enter without an appointment. If you don't mind, I can call the president to see if he wants to see you."

Upon hearing Qianyou's words, Zhu Qingya's face alternated between pale and red, as if she had been struck in a sore spot. She had already called Pei Yimo before she arrived, but he had been indifferent to her. Although their fathers had been long-time business partners, the man had never shown her any kindness because of it. She had rushed over from England specially to see him, but he did not seem very happy about it. Instead, he had told her over the phone that he was too busy to see her.

This was clearly just a brush-off! When had this pampered young lady ever been treated with such disdain? Even a mere secretary in front of her could keep her out, where could she place her pride and dignity?

"Humph, what right does a woman like you, so ugly, have to stop me? Do you believe I'll have Mo fire you in the future? Get out of my way."

With that, Zhu Qingya was about to walk towards the president's office, but Qianyou hurried forward to try to stop her. However, Zhu Qingya suddenly became ashamed and angry, reaching out to push Qianyou.

Instantly, those who had been waiting for the drama couldn't help but exclaim in unison. Qianyou, who was already weak, was pushed by Zhu Qingya and was suddenly struck by dizziness, her body falling and hitting the corner of the office desk.

At the same time, Suyan, who had just finished discussing a cooperation plan with Pei Yimo, opened the door to the president's office and happened to witness the scene.

He exclaimed, "Qianyou!"
