Her single phrase of "Mr. Pei," so polite and alienating, stabbed at Pei Yansi's heart; he pulled at his lips, a self-deprecating laugh escaping him twice. Even after he had pressed her to this extent, Shen Heyu still had not uttered a single truth to him.
"Shen Heyu, I've already given you a chance to speak up. If there's anything you can't handle by yourself, you can choose to ask me for help, and I will certainly do my best to assist you."
"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Pei, but I haven't encountered such a matter. I would like you to leave here immediately."
"Fine. Shen Heyu, if there's anything you won't share with me, it can't be concealed forever. If I have someone investigate, they will eventually uncover the matter. You'd better not let me find out you've been lying to me," Pei Yansi said as he stared intently into Shen Heyu's eyes.
