Chapter 42 Watching from the Sidelines

Pei Liyan shifted his gaze towards Qiao Rui, noticing how indifferent she appeared, as if everything was unrelated to her, merely observing the situation from a distance.

He immediately became displeased, his eyes growing colder and colder, and an air of hostility exuded from him, lowering the atmospheric pressure around them.

Qiao Rui remained unperturbed as if she hadn't seen it.

The chill in Pei Liyan's eyes grew even thicker.

Qiao Xiang caught sight of this and, with a turn of her eyes, dismissed Qiao Rui's words, smiling softly and whispering to Pei Liyan, "Liyan, I heard you've been working on several big projects recently, haven't you?"

Pei Liyan offered a faint smile, "Business as usual."

"Modesty," Qiao Xiang laughed, "By the way, I've graduated now. When I come back, I won't be going abroad anymore."

"Congratulations," Pei Liyan smiled lightly.

"Thanks."

"Are you going to take a position with the Qiao Family?" Pei Liyan asked further.
