Cheng Mo rushed over to Cloud Manor with a pile of files.

  It was a pile of urgent documents that needed to be handled by Pei Yucheng the next morning. Otherwise, everything would be delayed.

  Many pairs of eyes were on President Pei right now. They wanted to pull him away from his position. If they made such a huge mistake, President Pei would be in trouble.

  If anyone found out that President Pei had fallen behind because of his severe illness, the consequences would be disastrous.

  Cheng Mo stood at the entrance of the bedroom, looking conflicted.

  Lin Yan had called him earlier to tell him that he was forbidden from interrupting President Pei’s recovery.

  He didn’t want to disrupt President Pei’s recovery. However, President Pei had told him to bring the documents over before 8 p.m, so he couldn’t disobey.

  After some hesitation, Cheng Mo obeyed and knocked on the door.

  Knock, knock, knock.

  Pei Yucheng had had a good night’s sleep the previous night. When he heard the knocking on his door, he woke up feeling disoriented, as though he didn’t know what day it was.

  Lin Yan had left quietly.

  Pei Yucheng’s eyes dimmed a little. He didn’t dare not regain his composure. “Enter.”


  Cheng Mo carefully strode in. “President Pei, the documents you needed are ready.”


  Pei Yucheng felt slightly better after his nap. However, he had persisted for too long. He hadn’t had enough sleep after just a few hours.

  He had woken up too quickly, and his temples and heart were throbbing in pain.

  However, the moment Cheng Mo entered the room, Pei Yucheng went back to his impeccable self. He looked as though he was completely fine.

  Pei Yucheng put on some clothes and got out of bed. “Bring them over.”


  “Okay.” Cheng Mo was ready to hand the documents over.

  It had never occurred to him that he would be held down by a tremendous force the moment he took two steps forward.

  At the same time, a chill ran down his spine.

  “Assistant Cheng, what are you doing here?” Lin Yan’s cold voice rang out.

  Cheng Mo broke out in a cold sweat and froze on the spot.

  Pei Yucheng, who had just finished putting on his clothes, was startled to see Lin Yan get home so early. Then, he swiftly removed his jacket, which had remained useless.

  Lin Yan stole a glance at Pei Yucheng before she strode over to Cheng Mo. She sized up the documents in his arms and asked, “Assistant Cheng, what are you holding?”


  The force on his shoulders seemed like it would crush his bones if he moved a little.

  Cheng Mo didn’t dare utter a word. He only stammered, “N-Nothing…… A pile of useless paper…… I was about to throw it away……”


  Lin Yan’s eyes turned cold. She strode over to the table and picked up an empty cup. “That’s good. I hope you remember what I said. Don’t disturb President Pei while he is recuperating. Otherwise, I might lose control of my temper.”


  The cup in Lin Yan’s hand shattered.

  Lin Yan had crushed it with her bare hands.

  Cheng Mo was speechless……

  Pei Yucheng was speechless……

  Cheng Mo coughed violently and hastily replied, “I remember, Miss Lin…… No, don’t worry, madam. I remember everything. I’m leaving now. I won’t disturb President Pei’s rest!”
