Pei Jingchuan frowned slightly as a cool demeanor radiated from him.
He gently raised his hand, and all the clamour seemed to dissipate within his comforting aura.
"Alright, we're all friends here. No need to get angry over such a trivial matter."
The man's voice was gentle and low, exuding an undeniable authority.
He turned his head towards Gu Qiyang, his expression softening as he spoke again.
"This isn't a big deal."
Gu Qiyang took a deep breath, his expression seemed slightly surprised. He hadn't expected Pei Jingchuan to let him off the hook like this.
Then he turned towards Jiang Yuzhu who was standing quietly there without making any indication.
Peace returned to the room, everyone seemed awestruck by Pei Jingchuan's unspoken authority.
Gu Qiyang kept silent for a moment, then he showed a meek smile despite the embarrassment and a small trace of shame.
"I... I'll go first." He scratched his head, looking slightly embarrassed.
