After a long time, Lin Yan snapped back to her senses. Her head suddenly felt heavy.

“Mr. Pei… Hold on… I’m here because I need to discuss something with you,” Lin Yan said softly.

Pei Yucheng seemed to be deep in thought as he released her. “Is it about Pei Yutang and his team?”

Lin Yan shook her head. Why would she care about Pei Yutang’s team?

“Mr. Pei… It’s about Xing Chen,” Lin Yan probed gingerly.

Pei Yucheng’s eyes contained no trace of emotion when he heard Lin Yan. He wasn’t the least bit surprised by her.

“Brother Yu…”

Before Lin Yan could continue, Xing Chen’s voice interrupted them.

“Enter,” replied Pei Yucheng quietly.

Xing Chen and several other young men and women entered the study.

The group of men and women appeared slightly haughty and aloof as they strode in.

Lin Yan had never seen them before.

“Brother Yu, we are here.”

The man who walked in first smiled at Pei Yucheng.

“Brother Yu, it has been some time,” a woman said.

Pei Yucheng scanned their faces in silence.

“Brother Yu, Miss Rong asked us to come here. She is worried about you and she misses you. She even said that if you refuse to visit her, she will look for you soon,” the man told Pei Yucheng.

Lin Yan knitted her eyebrows when she heard the man.

Miss Rong… Who was this person? Where was she from?

Demon had left her feeling confused and bewildered. Now, Miss Rong had entered the picture.

She gathered from these people’s responses that Miss Rong seemed to be close to Pei Yucheng. They should have a special relationship.

“Hold on. Who is this, Brother Yu?”

A girl in red suddenly turned to Lin Yan, her eyes glinting coldly.

Why is this woman so intimate with Pei Yucheng? The girl in red thought to herself.

“Sister Xu Yao, she is Brother Yu’s girlfriend,” Xing Chen said quietly after some time.

“Girl… Girlfriend?”

The girl, whose name was Xu Yao, was dumbfounded by Xing Chen’s answer.

Xu Yao’s eyes met Lin Yan’s.

Lin Yan could feel an obvious trace of contempt and mockery in her eyes.

“I see…”

Xu Yao didn’t press on. She merely grinned and nodded.

Lin Yan frowned to herself. What was wrong with these people?

Other than the girl, every single person that had come in with Xing Chen appeared to cast looks of contempt at her the moment they were informed that she was Pei Yucheng’s girlfriend.

They weren’t obvious but they showed it to Lin Yan.

Xing Chen whipped out his phone and quietly sent Lin Yan a message. Then, he gave her a meaningful glance.

Lin Yan took out her phone to read the message.

Xing Chen couldn’t really explain much with everyone around.

‘A Little Boy Who Loves Lollipops’ had typed, ‘Miss Lin, all these people are Miss Rong’s confidants. Miss Rong grew up with Brother Yu so their bond goes way back. Besides, they have a complex relationship that’s hard to explain. You don’t have to be bothered by their responses or remarks.’
