Finally, Zhou Liqing added: "If you had not chosen Yan Jing at the beginning, but followed him, it would have been great."
Zhou Liqing forgot which party he heard this piece of gossip at.
I don’t know whether it’s true or not.
It is said that an ancestral motto handed down by the Pei family is: the heir can only get married at the age of thirty.
When Pei Yucheng was 23 years old, he began to think about marrying Ji Yuqi.
Pei's father was furious and whipped him, forcing him to kneel in the Pei family ancestral hall and confess his mistakes in front of all the ancestors.
A total of forty-eight lashes.
Pei Yucheng's entire back was beaten to a bloody mess, with only his bones visible, but he was so stubborn that he refused to change even a word.
If Ji Yuqi had not gone to Country M five years ago, she might have married into the Pei family.
The mistress of the Pei family, what a noble and dazzling identity!
In this way, perhaps, the glory of the four major families will still remain.
Upon hearing this, Ji Yuqi stopped in his tracks abruptly.
When she turned around and looked at Zhou Liqing, there was a glimmer of light in her smiling eyes.
She said to Zhou Liqing: "But I don't regret it at all."
I don't regret being with Lu Yanjing.
I don’t regret going to Country M.
If she had the chance again, she would still make the same choice. Even though she knew that Pei Yucheng would be unattainable in the future, standing at the top of the clouds, worshipped by thousands of people.
She still did not hesitate and did not look back.
The black car has entered the mansion and is about to enter the garage.
But Zhou Liqing's heart was still extremely tormented.
After the driver backed the car into the garage and parked it, he couldn't help but say to the butler in the passenger seat, "Tomorrow, go to the bank and transfer some money to an unfamiliar account. Then have someone deliver it to Xiao Qi. Seven million isn't much."
The butler frowned when he heard this.
He turned to look at Zhou Liqing and whispered, "Although seven million is indeed not a lot, the Zhou family's financial hole is too large. Even if Xidai Mountain is mortgaged, the shortfall is still huge. The Zhou family is struggling in the imperial capital. Those powerful people always flatter the powerful and bully the weak. No one will lend a hand to the Zhou family. Master, the most crucial thing is the attitude of the head of the Pei family. We have no idea what he is thinking about Miss Ji now. Five years ago, we couldn't afford to offend the Pei family, let alone now we have the Lian family to protect us. If we act rashly and accidentally offend him, the Zhou family will be completely finished."
The housekeeper's analysis was very thorough.
It's absolutely true.
But Zhou Liqing was furious.
He picked up the lighter from the glove compartment and smashed it against the car window angrily.
…
Ji Yuqi appeared at the gate of Pei's villa in the evening of December 26th.
An hour ago, she received a call from the mother of the brain-dead child in Country M: "I'll give you three more hours. If I don't receive any more remittance, I'll give the heart to another patient. Please think carefully about it."
We left Xidai Mountain the day before yesterday.
It was just as Zhou Liqing said: in the entire imperial capital, the powerful and wealthy refused to even show their faces, let alone borrow money.
This includes the family that Ji Fengran had once spared no effort to support.
It can be said that the Pei family is the last hope.
The Pei family's steward glanced coldly at Ji Yuqi, who was firmly blocked outside by the iron gate. His expression was full of contempt and disdain, and he said with extreme disdain: "I'm sorry, Miss Ji, our master is dining with an important guest. I'm afraid he doesn't have time to see you."
