"And don't forget, you and Pei Mochen's wedding doesn't even have a fixed date yet, nobody knows you're married, we can't gain anything from it!"

  "So, the most important thing for you right now is to coax Pei Muni well and let him remit the remaining payment as soon as possible. Also, choose a time to get married as soon as possible, instead of using work as an excuse not to go home and making him dissatisfied!"

  "Alright, come to the company on a cloudy day, hand over your work and Secretary Su, and then he will be in charge of project promotion and advertising. You can just stay at home and take care of your husband."

  Su Wan's heart skipped a beat.

  She wanted to go back to the company to work, first because she didn't want to stay in the villa all the time, doing nothing, thinking wildly, and also to avoid Pei Mochen. Second, she wanted to participate in the project, launch the product as soon as possible, and hope that after making a profit, she would not have to rely on the Pei family's money.

  Now grandfather always asks her to put down her work after a few words, how can she be willing?

  "Grandpa, I..."

  The phone was hung up with a click, and Su Wanwan's words that were about to be spoken were left unspoken.

  Su Wanwan's eyes reddened as she thought about how her grandfather had never liked her and her sister, simply because they were girls. After their parents passed away, he had taken them in, but only because he saw the potential benefits of marrying them off to bring prosperity to the Su family. Her sister... had been forced to marry a rich young man she didn't love.

  She originally thought that in this year of dependence on her grandfather, she was obedient, listened to him, and understood things, and Grandfather had changed his views on her a lot, even caring about her and thinking for her. Unexpectedly... he still spoke of the Su family's interests, without ever considering her.

  Her nose felt sour, misty air rose before her eyes, Su Wanwan lifted her head, took a deep breath through her nose, and forcibly suppressed the urge to cry.

  Embarrassed and distressed, for her now, it's all in vain, no matter how unbearable it is, she can only endure.

  She can only listen to her grandfather's words for the time being. As long as she gets the project done and makes money, she will have autonomy and speaking rights in front of her grandfather. She cannot be controlled by her grandfather all her life like her sister.

  Su Wanwan sat there, taking a few deep breaths to calm her emotions. She called for the bill and left the cafe with her bag, heading towards the villa.

  Su Wanwan returned to the villa at nearly ten o'clock. Wu Shu saw her walking in and hurriedly went up to say, "Young Madam, you're back, have you eaten dinner?"

  Su Wanwan nodded perfunctorily and replied that she had eaten, then her gaze subtly shifted to the second floor, she pursed her lips and asked in a low voice: "Where is Pei Muniang?"

  "The young master has returned long ago and should be in the study now."

  Listening to Wu Shu's words, Su Wanwan unconsciously let out a breath of relief. She smiled and said, "Wu Shu, then I'll go up first."

  Su Wanwan went upstairs, tiptoed past the study area, and rushed towards the bedroom. As soon as she entered the bedroom, she closed the door, put her bag on the sofa, and then ran to the bathroom.

  These days, she has been doing this: as soon as she gets home, she goes to her bedroom, takes a bath and washes up, hurries into bed before Pei Mochen returns to the room, sleeps, and then gets up early the next day to go to the company. This way, she can avoid seeing Pei Mochen.
