She Asks for a Divorce Again-Chapter 166 - Compliance
Chapter 166: Chapter 166 Compliance
Chapter 166: Chapter 166 Compliance
Pei Yansi had previously manipulated the stock market in secret when dealing with the Lu Family and had already grasped most of their shares. Now, if Shen Heyu wanted to help Lu Yi save the situation, this portion of the shares would be extremely important.
After all, even if her tactics were on par with Pei Yansi’s, Pei Yansi controlled more than half of the shares here. He could enter the Lu Family’s board at any time or even directly acquire their company.
At that point, no matter what she did, it would be of no use.
Thinking this, Shen Heyu hesitated for a moment.
Seeing her behavior, Lu Yunlan at her side asked, “Why aren’t you responding to him?”
Shen Heyu was in deep thought.
Could this be a trap set by Pei Yansi?
Before leaving her home, he had warned her not to do anything he disliked, which pretty much meant she should keep her distance from Lu Yi.
But not only had she not heeded the warning, she headed straight here to oppose him as soon as she left the house.
If she really went to him now, who knows how he would punish her.
Seeing her silent, Lu Yunlan poked her with a finger and asked, “What’s wrong with you?”
This time, she had no reaction at all.
Shen Heyu was brought back to reality by the poke and, facing Lu Yunlan’s questioning eyes, realized something and said, “I need to step out for a bit.”
Of course, Lu Yunlan recognized the writing and immediately understood where she intended to go.
She said, “Aren’t you afraid he’ll deal with you?”
Shen Heyu shook her head.
It wasn’t that she wasn’t afraid, but to her, even if she didn’t go now, upon returning to the Pei Mansion, he would still settle the score with her.
Not going now might only exacerbate the man’s anger.
When she returned to the mansion later, his anger could worsen.
Might as well go straight to him now.
Better a short pain than a long one. In any case, it had to happen, so she might as well face it.
Having come to this conclusion, Shen Heyu packed up her computer and prepared to leave. Lu Yunlan, worried, followed behind her and said, “If something happens, you must contact me immediately and tell me. If it really won’t work, just drop the matter.”
Otherwise, it would be a futile effort for people on both sides to keep drawing her in when they were all ultimately under Pei Yansi’s control.
Shen Heyu nodded and said to her, “Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.”
She got into her car and drove toward the Pei Building.
In the office, Pei Yansi didn’t see a reply on the other end, but the other party had already logged off, so he knew she was on her way.
His fingers curled slightly, tapping on the tabletop, his lips revealing a cool thin smile. He just knew she would come.
But if that was the case, why bother provoking his anger?
Pei Yansi didn’t wait long before the office door, as she desired, was knocked upon.
“Come in,” he said without needing to guess who it was.
Shen Heyu pushed open the door and entered, holding her laptop in her hands.
She first closed the office door, shutting out the outside world, and then walked over to Pei Yansi’s desk, placing the computer in front of him, and said, “What do you want?”
“That’s my line, isn’t it?” Pei Yansi chuckled coldly, closing his laptop in front of him as well. He looked up, his deep gaze fixated on Shen Heyu, and said, “It seems you didn’t listen to a word I said this morning.”
Shen Heyu was silent.
She had no wish to argue with him about right or wrong. What right did he have to fully constrain her actions?
After a few seconds of silence, she got right to the point and said, “You said that if I came to you, you would give me all the Lu Family shares. You can give them to me now.”
“What’s the rush?”
Pei Yansi spoke indifferently, pushing his office chair back before standing up and walking towards Shen Heyu.
His tall frame was imposing, especially up close, casting a shadow that blocked most of the sunlight and was suffocating.
Shen Heyu involuntarily took two steps back to avoid him.
However, what Pei Yansi couldn’t tolerate the most was her evasion.
His already foul mood sank to rock bottom because of her small movement. He forcefully pulled Shen Heyu into his arms, wrapping around her as they fell onto the sofa.
Shen Heyu found herself pressed underneath him.
Behind her was the soft sofa, in front was his firm chest.
Instinctively, she extended her hands to brace against his chest to prevent his approach, feeling somewhat panicked.
Yet, he made no further moves, simply pressing down on her silently.
Pei Yansi whispered into her ear with a sultry tone, “You never listen to me and always seem to struggle against me. Do you actually like it when I treat you this way?”
“Are you deliberately provoking me like this?”
Shen Heyu was stunned by his outrageous logic, frowning and said coldly, “Have you listened to what you’re saying?”
Pei Yansi leaned closer, gazing deeply into her eyes.
He couldn’t see whatever it was he wanted.
Suddenly finding it tedious, he rose from her and pulled her up as well, hugging her into his embrace and making her sit on his legs.
He said, “I will give you all the Lu Family shares and henceforth withdraw from the Lu Family. I only have one condition.”
“I won’t agree!”
Shen Heyu rejected outright.
She knew without thinking what condition he wanted her to agree to. She straightforwardly said, “I’ve said it; I won’t remarry you, no matter what. Your methods of coercion and temptation won’t work on me. At most, it will lead to a complete breakdown between us!”
Pei Yansi’s expression turned icy in an instant.
He spoke in a heavy tone, “I haven’t even mentioned the condition yet, and you’re already declining?”
“Isn’t it just to remarry you?”
“No, it’s not.”
It wasn’t only that, but he was also not willing to reach the point of complete rupture with her. After thinking for so long, he came up with some potentially effective ways to cope with her.
Unless it was utterly unavoidable, he didn’t want to reach that point of no return with her.
“What is it?” If it wasn’t for remarriage, Shen Heyu’s side, or rather her very self, had nothing left worthy of being sacrificed.
Definitely not worthy of Pei Yansi’s elaborate scheming.

Pei Yansi took a jewelry box from his pocket.
Seeing the box, Shen Heyu paused. She remembered the item; it was from the fireworks show abroad, where he had offered it to her, but she had refused.
It was a ring.
He took the ring out and said, “Wear it, accept it.”
