Li Wenjing naturally felt that the drugging was flawless.
No matter how you investigate, you will never find out about it.
However, she was still uneasy.
After all, the person who drugged him was the Patriarch of the Pei family.
If something goes wrong.
Not only will Ning Ruyan lose her status as the mistress, but the entire Ning family will probably not have a good ending.
Li Wenjing didn't get a good rest the whole night.
Especially when there was a violent storm in the second half of the night, after being woken up, she almost kept her eyes open until dawn.
She originally wanted to call Ning Ruyan to ask about the progress of the situation.
But he was also afraid of disturbing her and Pei Yucheng.
I can only suppress the uneasiness in my heart.
Early the next morning.
Li Wenjing got up and quickly packed up, preparing to go to the Imperial Mansion.
When he went downstairs, he saw Ning Yiwei standing in the yard, ordering the servants to clean the two luxury cars that were driven back from the Imperial Mansion last night.
Pei Yucheng's private car.
It's not just expensive and luxurious.
And it is: unique and inhumane.
But when Li Wenjing saw it, she inexplicably felt a little embarrassed and hot.
After all, Ning Yiwei got these two cars by begging for mercy.
It wasn't something Pei Yucheng gave willingly.
Probably because he saw the servant being a bit rough when scrubbing the car, Ning Yiwei immediately scolded him, "Do you even know how to wash a car?! Do you know how expensive this car is?! How dare you be so rough? If you damage the paint, I won't be able to pay for it even if I sell you."
Ning Yiwei simply rolled up his sleeves and wiped the car himself.
Seeing Li Wenjing coming down with her bag in hand, Ning Yiwei asked curiously, "Are you going out? Where are you going so early in the morning?!"
Li Wenjing was afraid that Ning Yiwei would find out she was going to the Imperial Mansion and embarrass herself by following him, so she simply made up an excuse and said, "I have an appointment with Madam Ma for morning tea."
Normally, Ning Yiwei was very opposed to her going out and partying with friends for no reason.
However, Ning Yiwei probably was in a good mood today, so he didn't care and instead asked her to come back early.
Li Wenjing asked in confusion, "Why, is there something going on today?!"
Ning Yiwei said, "The betrothal gift list we drafted for the Pei family requires a villa. Since our daughter is already engaged, the marriage is almost certain. When we have time, we have to go look at houses."
As he spoke, Ning Yiwei turned around and looked at the house behind him.
Then he said, "Although this set has a good location, it is really too small. How can it match the temperament of the Pei family's father-in-law and mother-in-law?!"
"..." Li Wenjing's heart suddenly stagnated. After hesitating for a moment, she said, "Xiaoyan and Yucheng just got engaged. We can look into these things later. Let's not ask the Pei family for anything at this critical moment."
Ning Yiwei, however, leered at Li Wenjing with a look of immense disdain. "Womanly kindness, what do you know?! Do you know how many connections I made at yesterday's engagement party?! They're all incredibly influential figures in the capital! Xiaoyan marrying into the Pei family means we've also become part of their inner circle. If we don't move to a bigger house quickly, if someone comes to visit, it wouldn't be a big deal if they looked down on us, but bringing shame to the Pei family would be the biggest problem."
Li Wenjing didn't know what to say to Ning Yiwei.
I could only stand there carrying my bag.
Ning Yiwei glanced at the bag in Li Wenjing's hand and frowned immediately: "Why are you carrying this bag again?! Is this the only bag you have?! You carry it every day, aren't you afraid of being laughed at?!"
Li Wenjing moved her mouth.
Ning Yiwei said, "Go talk to Xiaoyan and ask the Pei family to customize some bags for you..."
"No need to trouble Xiaoyan." Li Wenjing interrupted Ning Yiwei before he could finish his words.
Ning Yiwei said, "What do you mean by 'no trouble'?! When you gave birth to Xiaoyan, you were in excruciating pain and had to undergo caesarean section due to a difficult delivery. You didn't think she was a bother at all. Now that she's married, asking her husband to make a bag for her mother as a token of filial respect isn't too much, is it?"
Li Wenjing wanted to say that there was no need to trouble the Pei family with these things.
Everything comes from the Pei family.
It will make Ning Ruyan unable to hold her head up in the Pei family.
The Ning family's social status was originally very low.
Ning Ruyan no longer has any face in the Pei family.
We can't let her feel more embarrassed because of her family.
Ning Yiwei caught sight of Li Wenjing's expression and knew what she was about to say. He waved his hand impatiently, "Go have some morning tea. When you come back, we'll go look at houses. I've been thinking about the largest villa in Lujing Lake for a long time. If the layout is good, we'll let my son-in-law buy it."
When Li Wenjing heard that Ning Yiwei was actually planning to buy the house in Lujing Lake, her eyes widened: "Are you crazy?! Do you know how expensive the houses in Lujing Lake are?!"
That is the top wealthy villa area in the entire imperial capital, and it is inhabited by the top dignitaries.
The price is already ridiculously expensive.
Ning Yiwei actually wants to see the largest apartment?!
That would be a sky-high price.
Ning Yiwei was very calm: "We have to choose the most expensive one so that the Pei family won't look down on our daughter."
Li Wenjing said, "The Pei family must be willing to buy it for us."
Ning Yiwei said, "Why wouldn't they agree?! They actually nodded when I handed them the betrothal gift list."
Seeing Li Wenjing about to retort, Ning Yiwei grew impatient. "What's your last name?! Why are you trying to be so patronizing to the Pei family?! Don't worry, Pei Yucheng has plenty of money. He paid 3 billion in taxes for our daughter without blinking an eye, and it arrived in the account in minutes. You can imagine how wealthy the Pei family must be. It's just a villa, and it's probably just a matter of plucking a few hairs from the Pei family."
