章 420: Chapter 419: Song Yanghao's Birthday Banquet_1

Jiang Yuzhu's eyebrows furrowed slightly as she tried to understand Pei Jingchuan's thoughts. "But, we had already agreed, and Sister Xueying will be there too. I think it's just a simple gathering; we don't need to overthink it."

Pei Jingchuan's expression remained aloof. He looked deeply into Jiang Yuzhu's eyes, "I know, but I just don't want to attend his birthday party."

Jiang Yuzhu looked at Pei Jingchuan's cold demeanor, her heart filled with confusion. She could not understand why Pei Jingchuan was so resistant to this gathering.

She attempted to diffuse the tension by quietly saying, "Jingchuan, if you really don't want to go, I can go alone. You don't have to force yourself."

Pei Jingchuan didn't respond, his face still carrying an indifferent look.

He gazed deeply at Jiang Yuzhu, as if weighing something in his heart.

After some time, Jiang Yuzhu rose and walked to the bedroom to rest, leaving Pei Jingchuan alone in the living room, immersed in his thoughts.
