No reconciliation, no forgiveness! Mr. Pei leaves with nothing.

Chapter 200 Establishing Their Own Studio

Jiang Hua lowered her eyes and stroked the blue gemstone ring on her ring finger, lost in thought. After a while, she took off the ring and placed it on the bedside table. "Men, it's not normal for them to cheat. A marriage without love is fine as long as you have money."

At least... I won't be penniless like I was in my previous life, unable to even afford medicine in the hospital.

Xu Qiulan still couldn't let go of Jiang Hua in her heart. She didn't have her own children, but after so many years, she had long regarded Jiang Hua as her own child. Not to mention, Jiang Hua, who had never suffered any grievances, had to endure such a marriage.

For a moment, Xu Qiulan couldn't help but tear up.

Jiang Hua felt a little uncomfortable when she saw Xu Qiulan wiping away tears. "Aunt Xu, Pei Zhan is just a tool for making money for the Jiang family. I have no feelings for him anymore. I don't care at all if he finds a girl he likes outside."

"Alright, Aunt Xu, you should go and get some rest."

When Pei Zhan came out of the study and returned to the master bedroom, he saw a person who was already fast asleep on the bed, lying on her side with her hair casually scattered and holding a book in her hand. Pei Zhan walked over quietly, took the book from her hand and placed it on the bedside table. Seeing the ring that she had taken off, Pei Zhan put it back on Jiang Hua's finger.

Jiang Hua was awakened by the slight noise. She opened her eyes groggily and saw the man in front of her. With her eyes closed, she uttered a lazy, cold voice, "I don't think I gave you permission to sleep in the same bed with me!"

"go out!"

Pei Zhan had just taken off his coat and unbuttoned two buttons on his black shirt. "Huahua, even if I helped the Jiang family generate profits, shouldn't I be allowed to collect some interest?"

Jiang Hua opened her eyes, her gaze icy cold. Her drowsiness had vanished. She propped her head up and looked at him. "If you really want it, I can call Song Qingran and have her come over to help you."

"Of course, all of this is for you. If you find the 8 billion in annual equity dividends troublesome... I don't mind if you bring Song Qingran over tomorrow. After all, Jinsha Shallow Bay is so big, one more person won't make a difference, and one less person won't make a difference either."

As she finished speaking, Jiang Hua noticed Pei Zhan's expression change, a hint of malice creeping into his eyes. She didn't understand where his emotions came from, or what those emotions were. Jiang Hua didn't care. She turned over, facing away from him, and closed her eyes to continue sleeping. "Remember to close the door when you go out, it's a bit cold."

For money, Jiang Hua wouldn't be so intolerant, especially since... this wasn't a small sum.

That night, Pei Zhan slept in the study of the master bedroom.

Jiang Hua had healed the wound on her forehead. Looking in the mirror, she brushed aside the stray hairs from her forehead. Only after confirming that there was no scar left did she feel relieved enough to let her hair down. Pei Zhan walked from the master bedroom to the bathroom door, his expensive watch on his wrist and a black coat draped over his arm. "What's wrong?"

"A scar? Let me see."

Jiang Hua slapped away his outstretched hand, "Don't touch me."

Although she said that, Pei Zhan could tell that her tone was no longer filled with disgust, or at least... less so.

Jiang Hua went downstairs carrying her bag, with Pei Zhan following behind her, the two of them one in front and one behind.

Breakfast was already prepared on the table.

Jiang Hua sat directly in the main seat. Kager was used to this 'young mistress's' disrespect for others. Since the young master liked it, he could only suppress his dissatisfaction.

"I'm not too busy today, I'll pick you up from school tonight."

Jiang Hua casually tore at the bread in her hand. "Don't take yourself too seriously. You're always hanging around in front of me. Aren't you annoyed? Can't you just do what you used to do and find an excuse to go on a business trip abroad?"

During the three days she was recuperating at home, Pei Zhan appeared in front of her almost every few days. Even when she was reading in her room, he would be there to watch her.

"Never mind, I've lost my appetite."

Jiang Hua dropped the bread in her hand, picked up her bag, and walked out, getting into the prepared car.

Kagel frowned deeply: "The lady won't like a personality like that."

Pei Zhan: "This isn't the Huo family yet."

Kagel pursed his lips and said no more.

Inside the car, Pei Zhan reached out and took her hand, checking her temperature. "It's going to rain tonight, remember to wear your coat."

Jiang Hua tried to pull her hand back, but she couldn't.

I held on until we were almost at school before letting go.

He only let go when they reached the school gate, opened the car door, quickly got out, and slammed the door shut.

Just then, Shen Bao'er got out of Shen Yebai's car and ran to Jiang Hua's side, taking her arm. "Huahua...you're finally back. Let me see if it still hurts."

"Huahua, what's wrong? Why aren't you talking to me?"

"I'll tell you something strange. Do you want to hear about that little bitch Song Qingran?"

Jiang Huacai became interested and asked, "What is it?"

Shen Bao'er said, "I've seen Song Qingran attending various banquets lately. I also heard that her roommates were going to organize some kind of club, which seems to be for people in the jewelry restoration elective class. They said it's quite strict to get in. They seem to be submitting their materials recently. I wonder what she's up to."

Jiang Hua: "I'm not interested in other people's business."

Shen Bao'er: "That's right, what are they?"

Today, her and Shen Bao'er's classrooms were in the same building. When they walked to the second floor, they heard a discussion outside a classroom. Song Qingran's voice could be heard clearly: "We have all the materials ready. I have also obtained some contact information. However, our current ability level is really limited. We still need to hone our skills. During this period, we will start with practical exercises based on the videos and take it one step at a time."

"The office space that the school approved for our club is provided free of charge. However... I won't be at school this afternoon, so Ayao will explain all the information I've recorded to you."

Outside the classroom door.

Shen Bao'er: "I wonder what they're whispering about."

Professor Guo's voice rang out from behind, "Jiang Hua."

The classroom fell silent instantly. Jiang Hua glanced at the classroom next to her, found it strange, then said something to Bao'er before turning and leaving.

Song Qingran: "Ayao, what's wrong? Why do you look so pale?"

"Little Fish, you too."

The two waved their hands in unison, "It's nothing, it's nothing." Xiaoyu said, "Qingran, you can go to Jiang's this afternoon without worry. Ayao and I will take care of it."

Song Qingran nodded, "Okay."

In the past few days, Song Qingran and the senior executives of the design department attended many banquets of all sizes. During these banquets, she also added the contact information of many wealthy ladies. When their jewelry restoration club is established, they will be able to set up their own studio.
