"Although the steward has a very high status in the Pei family, it is not up to you to decide whether Mr. Pei has the time and is willing to see me. Please go in and inform him that Ji Yuqi wants to see him for something." Facing the steward's deliberate difficulties, Ji Yuqi's attitude was neither humble nor arrogant.
The steward was immediately amused by Ji Yuqi's words.
Because of his profession, he always kept his hands folded in front of his abdomen in a respectful manner.
But the words he spoke were cold and sarcastic: "Miss Ji, are you so sure that as long as you ask for an audience, our master will receive you without hesitation?! Who gave you the confidence to dare to say such arrogant words?! In today's Pei family, is someone like you qualified to take even a single step?! I advise you: have some dignity."
After saying this, the steward turned around and walked into the other courtyard.
Ji Yuqi was not at all moved by the steward's humiliation.
She stared at his back expressionlessly and spoke softly, "I have plenty of ways to get Mr. Pei to see me, but today the chief steward sent me away without permission. I heard that in the Pei family, usurping the throne and interfering in other people's affairs are both serious crimes. If I cause any more trouble, I don't know if I will violate Mr. Pei's taboos and anger him."
Those who could hold the position of chief steward in a wealthy and prestigious family were always expected to possess extremely high mental qualities. In other words, they were known for their forbearance and excellent temper. However, upon hearing Ji Yuqi's words, the chief steward immediately became furious. "Threatening me?! Ji, you're the only one who still has the nerve to set foot in the Pei family. Anyone else would be too embarrassed to even return to the imperial capital."
Pei Yucheng, the dignified prince of the Pei family, the heir with the most noble direct blood flowing in his body, did not hesitate to violate the family ancestral teachings five years ago for this woman. Not only was he whipped, he was even willing to be removed from the family tree.
Just to live with her.
What's the result? !
She actually thought that the Pei family was caught up in a small financial crisis and was completely finished, so she abandoned their eldest young master and ran straight into Lu Yanjing's arms without looking back.
The steward will never forget: five years ago, when the eldest young master came back from Country M, he looked so sad that even his hair was filled with a dead air.
The chief steward is from the special forces.
He developed a truly iron-blooded heart early on.
However, whenever he thought of the night when Pei Yucheng returned home, with no light in his eyes, he still felt his heart bleeding.
When the Pei family was in trouble, she abandoned them.
Now the Pei family is shining and glorious, but they are shameless and want to climb up the social ladder.
Such a shameless and skinless person is rare in the world.
Ji Yuqi slowly raised his lips, his smile very shallow: "It's not a threat, I'm just helping the chief steward analyze the consequences."
"Do you think you can see Mr. Pei whenever you want?!" The steward sneered with extreme disdain.
Ji Yuqi asked back: "Then how do you know: Mr. Pei doesn't want to see me?!"
…
Pei family villa.
The restaurant was filled with endless luxury, and the maids stood in a row in neat rows.
Pei Quyan was sitting in the main seat, and Pei Huaijin, who was good at pleasing people, was serving him food in a rigorous manner.
While spreading the cloth, she said sweetly, "Father, I wish you a happy birthday every year, may you be younger and more handsome as you grow older..."
Pei Quyan was delighted by his youngest son.
Rather than saying that I'm in a very good mood today, it's better to say that since he handed over the power, I don't have to worry about company affairs, and I feel relaxed and happy every day.
How many people in today's upper class circles envy him.
The eldest son is meticulous, good at strategy, calm and reserved, manages the company's affairs in an orderly manner, and is a natural ruler.
The youngest son is obviously much weaker in this aspect, but he is lively and likable. Although he lacks IQ, he makes up for it with EQ, and is the well-deserved happy pill of the family.
After Pei Yucheng finished his call, he returned to the restaurant from the backyard. As soon as he sat down, Pei Huaijin came over and served him some food.
"Brother, what do you want to eat?! I'll help you get it!!"
Pei Huaijin is quite the lackey.
Pei Quyan was in a good mood today, and his mood was not bad either.
Twenty minutes ago, Pei Yucheng said in person: After your father's birthday party, you can go to the Yu Mansion to pick out a car, any brand and model you like.
Pei Huaijin was so excited that he almost jumped up and gave his brother a kiss.
He has been coveting that high-end Bugatti for a long time.
His brother actually gave it to him.
Sure enough, the person his brother loves most in this world is him.
Pei Yucheng simply glanced at the exquisite food on Pei Huaijin's plate and ordered in a low voice, "Don't bother, go down and sit down to eat."
"Okay, brother." Pei Huaijin said obediently.
As soon as Pei Huaijin sat down, the butler entered the restaurant.
"What's the matter?!" Pei Quyan glanced at the steward and asked in a low voice.
The steward stepped forward and whispered something in Pei Quyan's ear.
Hearing this, Pei Quyan first subconsciously glanced at Pei Yucheng who was sitting in the second seat beside him, then said lightly: "Take her to my study."
…
It was forty minutes later that Ji Yuqi entered the Pei family villa.
The geographical location of Pei's villa is actually not very good.
A little off.
Everyone knows that the Pei family is the oldest family in the imperial capital.
When the four major families were in their heyday, no one paid attention to the Pei family.
The Pei family has always been low-key.
Therefore, in Ji Yuqi's cognition: the Pei family's ancestral mansion is not very good and cannot be compared with the magnificent Daishan of the four major families.
However, after following the housekeeper into the villa, Ji Yuqi was stunned.
After an infrared security scan at the door, the first thing that catches your eye when you enter the gate is: on both sides of the wide road, there are two rows of neatly arranged stone lions made of expensive black gemstones. At first glance, you can't see the bottom.
