The successive blows had filled Pei Chengyi with rage, and he took this opportunity to vent it. However, his strength didn't last even three minutes, and he was quickly defeated.
Pei Yongsheng hired professional thugs, so how could Pei Chengyi be their opponent?
The momentary burst of energy couldn't be sustained for long, and in the end, Pei Chengyi was left with nothing but a beating. Pei Wenbin and his wife stepped forward to stop the attack, but were subsequently implicated. In the end, it was only after Shen Yizhi called the police that they finally stopped.
When the police went to investigate the situation, they happened to encounter the community surveillance camera being inspected, and no evidence was found. The family was beaten for nothing and had to swallow it back.
In the video, Pei Yongsheng remained calm when he saw the miserable state of his family.
"Since he has complete faith in Pei Chengyi, let him lead this mother and son through hard times!"
Although Pei Yongsheng didn't say it, Lu Anning could still see hatred in his eyes, and this didn't make him much happier.
With a determined heart, Pei Yongsheng called the bank that had lent the money to him and reminded them to collect the payment. If they didn't pay, they would confiscate the house. Lu Anning raised an eyebrow. Pei Yongsheng was planning to make their family sleep on the streets.
On the day the bank staff went to collect the house, it happened to rain heavily in Jiangcheng and the temperature dropped sharply.
Lu Anning sat in the office, feeling the biting chill of the video even through the screen. The three of them had been driven out, their belongings scattered all over the floor. Shen Yizhi, not caring about getting wet, desperately tried to protect her precious clothes and jewelry.
The man who collected the house looked at them expressionlessly, his eyes full of sarcasm.
"You rich people, when you were prosperous, you looked down on others. You never thought you would one day fall into poverty! You deserve it!"
The leaders may have been bullied before, and there was more hatred in their eyes. They even stepped on their only umbrella and broke it. They could only leave in the rain, dragging their suitcases in embarrassment.
After watching the video, Lu Anning exhaled, and a white mist drifted out. With temperatures of two or three degrees Celsius and a rain shower on top, this winter was going to be tough for their family.
Old Master Pei was still the same. Tang Jingyuan would occasionally go to see him with Lu An Ning, but most of the time it was Pei Lanyi who stayed by his side, and she enjoyed it very much.
She told Lu Anning: "Seeing him lying on the bed like a piece of crap, I felt so happy. This must be fate, making him pay for his past actions."
Seeing that the matter was settled, Pei Lanyi decided to stay in Jiangcheng. She wanted to stay with Pei Wanguo and watch him struggle and slowly die.
Lu An Ning opened his mouth, not knowing how to persuade her, so he could only simply have a drink with her.
"He must want you to be happy!"
"I'm happy! Guarding the old house, seeing him hate me but feel helpless every day, makes me especially happy. Just like that rainy night when he tied Ah Hao up in the yard and let me watch him being tortured to death with my own eyes. Even his body..."
When the pain was mentioned, Pei Lanyi's eyes lost the carefree light and she choked for a moment.
Pei Yongsheng replaced all the senior executives of Hongyue Group with his people as quickly as possible. Tang Jingyuan only took shares and became a hands-off boss, letting Pei Yongsheng do his job. As for his gray businesses, they were also transformed into legitimate businesses.
He had hinted to Tang Jingyuan more than once that he should come back to take over the company, and he was willing to be the deputy general manager to do chores for him, but Tang Jingyuan refused without hesitation.
Tang Jingyuan said righteously: "We should give young people more opportunities to exercise."
Pei Yongsheng was choked and could only go to the company to punch in for work every day, fearing that he would never be able to return to his previous free and easy life.
Lu Anning just smiled. He was naturally happy to see the harmonious atmosphere in the Pei family.
The project of No. 1 Academy is progressing smoothly. Now the only thing left to be decided is the spokesperson. Lu Anning feels that his life has suddenly become smooth sailing, and even the cold winter has become much more lovely.
After several discussions, the entire project team finally selected three celebrities with good images in the circle and waited for Tang Jingyuan to make the final decision.
One of them is the current best actor in the domestic entertainment industry, and has no other disadvantages except being expensive. The other two are also popular stars, but their status is slightly lower, and their image is also good.
Lu Anning had recently been looking at so many photos of celebrities that he was dazzled. Just as they were about to make a decision, they suddenly received a call from the actor's agent, who offered to be the advertising spokesperson for Number One Academy and assist in various promotional activities.
Tang Jingyuan and Xiang Yang immediately agreed, and contacted popular actresses and movie stars to work together to shoot a promotional video for No. 1 Academy.
As the project leader, Lu Anning would naturally be responsible for liaising with the spokesperson. But when she flipped through the actor's profile, looking at the enlarged photo and name, another face emerged in Lu Anning's mind.
Her eyes fell on the name of the actor, thoughtfully.
Gu Huai!
Could this top star in the domestic entertainment industry be from the Gu family in Kyoto?
She thought about it again. She had asked Zhong Ling to contact the agency before, but they had replied that the actor's schedule was full and they couldn't spare the time for the job. That was why Lu Anning had been struggling with the spokesperson for so long.
Now, the other party actually took the initiative to propose cooperation. Could it be that... they have other purposes?
