Pei Yucheng sent a car from the imperial palace to pick her up.
At that time, it had been a full forty minutes since Pei Yucheng left.
Ji Yuqi stayed where he was, like a soulless and unconscious puppet.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and her hair was dripping with water.
The driver lowered the window and said expressionlessly, "Miss Ji, the eldest young master asked me to take you back."
Ji Yuqi stood by the roadside without moving, obviously having no intention of getting in the car.
Seeing her, the driver's expression was filled with contempt and disdain. From the moment he received the order, he set out from the Imperial Mansion to the Fifth Ring Road where Ji Yuqi was, a full thirty-six kilometers and a forty-minute journey. Anyone with a bit of self-awareness, when being left in the middle of the road by the young master, would have probably known what he was thinking. Anyone with even a modicum of self-respect would have found a way to leave long ago.
However, she stood there, not moving an inch, still waiting for the Pei family's car to pick her up.
The car has arrived.
Let her get in the car, but she didn't get in.
Ha~, is she still dreaming that the Young Master will come back to pick her up personally?!
The disgust in the driver's eyes was obvious and strong, without any disguise: "The eldest young master's order does not allow anyone to disobey or resist, so Miss Ji, you'd better get in the car quickly."
Ji Yuqi didn't feel threatened at all.
Still motionless.
"Miss Ji should know that anyone who is chosen to work in the Imperial Palace, whether as a servant or a guard, has to put in a lot of hard work and effort. I hope Miss Ji can stand in my shoes and cooperate with me. Don't let the Young Master think that I can't even handle such a small matter. If I lose this job because of this, Miss Ji will probably feel bad."
The driver's words seemed sincere, but in fact his tone was extremely impatient.
Full of impatience and disgust.
You know, in the driver's eyes, Ji Yuqi's every move was nothing but endless scheming and shamelessness.
Tonight, the second young master of the Pei family came to the Yu Mansion.
There was a big fuss.
From this, all the servants in the mansion knew that the eldest young master and the eldest daughter of the Ji family had secretly obtained their marriage certificate tonight.
Logically speaking, based on Ji Yuqi's current status, everyone in the Pei family should be respectful to him.
But, is she worthy? !
When she learned that the Pei family was in trouble, she kicked out their eldest son without hesitation and followed the heir of the Lu family to Country M. Back then, their eldest son, for her, not only endured whippings, voluntarily gave up his status as a direct descendant of the Pei family, and automatically removed his name from the family tree, but he even repeatedly trampled on his own pride, just to beg her to come back.
How cruel could a woman's heart be to destroy their pure-hearted, undemanding young master, who had long since cultivated a cold-blooded, heartless devotion to inherit the family business, leaving him completely despaired and without hope?!
Those transferred from the Pei family's villa to the Imperial Palace were all loyal old people.
Drivers are no exception.
He has been in the Pei family for more than ten years.
However, he still feels shocked when he thinks about the day he was on duty five years ago.
Butler Li Wei stood at the staircase of the main residence of the Pei family's villa. He had lost all his usual calmness and composure. His face was filled with fear and panic. He roared loudly at the people downstairs: "Send someone to the hospital immediately, quickly!!!"
Pei Yucheng was addicted to alcohol and had severe stomach bleeding. When he was carried out of the main house by the guards, he was still vomiting blood. The driver was standing next to the car and helping to open the door.
He was so scared at that time.
It wasn't just because of the blood spurting out of Pei Yucheng's mouth and nose, but also because... his left wrist hung limply at the side of his body, and the bright red blood flowed down the white towel wrapped around the wound, like a faucet that was not tightened.
However, Pei Yucheng was in a coma at that time.
There is no consciousness anymore.
But he was still calling Ji Yuqi's name...
Since Ji Yuqi had resolutely chosen to be with another man and completely disdained their eldest young master, he should now keep a safe distance from their eldest young master.
But what is the result?
She could still be so shameless and show up next to the young master with ulterior motives again.
How shameless.
Besides, who in the imperial capital these days doesn't know: their eldest son and the movie queen Ning Ruyan are a match made in heaven. Are they about to get married?!
But at this time he comes to meddle and interfere in other people's feelings.
This behavior is truly intolerable.
So, when the driver received the message from Ning Ruyan, he glanced at the screen of his mobile phone and made a decision in his mind.
Although, the secret guards of the Imperial Palace, in addition to their duty of protecting the head of the Pei family at all costs, also have another responsibility, which is: absolute loyalty, absolute obedience, and loyalty to only the head of the Pei family until death.
However, at this moment, the driver decided to obey Ning Ruyan's orders once.
The text message sent by Ning Ruyan only had a few simple words: It’s not easy to get into the Pei family’s car.
