Chapter 36: The first of three things a new official does upon taking office
Under the night sky, the low-key silver-gray Maybach sped past on the highway and finally stopped at the door of the mysterious and solemn castle.
The surrounding eerie atmosphere makes one feel like entering a primeval forest.
Boom——
In an instant, a flash of lightning streaked across the void, accompanied by thunder, illuminating everything around as bright as day, and then it became dark again in an instant.
Si Qian, who had just gotten off the car, couldn't help but shiver.
What kind of weather is this? It scared her to death. It's just thunder but no rain!
ill!
Pei Li tidied Si Qian's clothes naturally, and then held her hand.
"Why, afraid of thunder?"
"I wasn't afraid before, but now that I've done so many bad things, I'm afraid."
“…”
At this time, a group of people rushed out from the ancient castle and bowed in unison in the direction of Pei Li and Si Qian as if they had set some kind of program.
"Welcome home, young master!"
Si Qian followed Pei Li, feeling so embarrassed that she almost made a Barbie castle out of it. She rubbed the goose bumps on her body.
Inexplicably, the sentence "The ten-year return period has arrived, welcome the Dragon King back to the throne" came to my mind.
"What's the difference between this and pooping on the street?"
Pei Li thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it won't stink this way."
A man who looked like a butler and was wearing a black tuxedo came out and bowed in Pei Li's direction:
"Master, you're back. I wonder who this young lady is..."
"I'm the bodyguard hired by the young master."
Si Qian spoke first.
The old butler stammered twice and swallowed the line "You are the first woman the young master has brought back."
"You are the first bodyguard the young master has brought back."
fine!
As a professional butler, he adapts to circumstances!
Pei Li said meaningfully: "She is my girlfriend."
"Oh!" The butler immediately dug out his classic lines and bowed to Si Qian, "Miss, you are the first woman the young master has brought back."
Si Qian: "You are the first housekeeper that the young master brought me to see."
Pei Li pulled the weird-talking Si Qian into the house.
As soon as I entered, everyone in the room and dozens of pairs of eyes looked at me.
Some people gloat over other people's misfortune, some people enjoy the show, but more of them are indifferent.
Pei Li whispered, "Remember, the bigger the noise, the better."
Si Qian: “No problem!”
As we all know, the biggest villain in a book often has a miserable childhood.
A broken family, divorced parents and the young boy.
In this domineering president literature, Pei Li, as the biggest villain, has accumulated all kinds of tragic life experiences. Just because of the insignificant love given by the heroine Mu Weiyue, he regards her as a ray of light in the darkness and has been following the light ever since.
He constantly opposed the male protagonist Li Chuanze, and eventually ended up with a tragic end of his family being broken up and his loved ones being killed.
If I remember the original book correctly, no one in the Pei family liked him.
Before either of them sat down, a graceful woman and a stern-faced man with an intimidating presence came down the stairs.
The woman wore a rose-shaped hairpin inlaid with pearls, her hair was half tied up, and even her face, which was heavily made up, could not hide the pride in her eyes.
The middle-aged man in a royal blue suit looked at Pei Li with a hint of disgust in his eyes:
"You still remember to come back?"
Pei Li said nothing. After looking at the woman, he unconsciously clenched his fists in his sleeves. He stood there quietly with his eyes lowered. No one knew what he was thinking.
Si Qian couldn't sit still any longer and stood in front of Pei Li:
"Lao Deng, are you suffering from Alzheimer's? Didn't you call him back?"
How could this person be as shameless as her?
The man then noticed that there was an outsider here, and his brows knitted slightly:
"Who are you?"
"I'm his girlfriend, Si Qian."
“No.”
"Whether you want to listen or not, it's none of your business."
Si Qian is not good at anything and is the best at argument.
Pei Tianming's face turned green.
A small family that is not presentable!
The woman snorted and took the man's hand:
"Tianming, don't be angry. The child finally came back."
Pei Tianming responded and patted the back of the woman's hand.
Then, he turned and looked at Si Qian, his eyes identical to the ones he gave Pei Li:
"My Pei family is really open to anyone, cat or dog."
"Don't look down on me! The fortune teller said I'm a lucky charm!"
Si Qian folded his arms and sneered.
Oh!
Blind idiot!
Ye Tinglan pretended to smooth things over at this time:
"I'm sorry, Miss Si, I didn't know there was an extra person at home today. The servants are cooking now, so please go and help."
Even a fool could see that Ye Tinglan was trying to intimidate the two of them. She was so perfunctory that she didn't even bother to give a reason and just asked the new guest to go to the kitchen to work.
This is obviously intentional.
Pei Li was about to speak when Si Qian stopped him.
She used her eyes to signal the other person not to speak, then turned around:
"But I can't cook..."
"It's okay. Women have to learn how to cook. It's not too late to practice now."
"Okay, for Pei Li, I can go and learn."
Si Qian pretended to be affectionate and tolerant.
Before entering the kitchen, she pulled Pei Li aside and whispered:
"Stay away for a while."
Her boss is not someone that anyone can bully!
…
Ten minutes later——
Thick smoke billowed from the huge fire, and the flames shooting up into the sky made the dark night as bright as day.
Si Qian stood in the yard, his arm around Pei Li's neck like a good friend, pointing at the smoking house.
"My beloved, this is the world I conquered for you!"
"Do you like it?"
Si Qian touched his greasy chin and leaned over to ask.
"I like it." Pei Li felt better, but he looked quite angry. "Should we leave first?"
"Why are you walking?"
As he spoke, Si Qian rolled his eyes, took out two sweet potatoes from his pocket and threw them in.
"Wait, I'll treat you to roasted sweet potatoes later."
“…”
The servants in the manor were running away, putting out the fire, and shouting one after another, it was very lively.
Pei Tianming and Ye Tinglan, who had been so arrogant just now, now looked as if they had just escaped from a group of refugees in a panic.
"Oh my god... poof!"
Ye Tinglan just opened her mouth and exhaled a puff of black smoke.
Pei Tianming rolled his eyes because of the smoke.
Si Qian, who was not far away, laughed heartlessly at the sight:
"It's not even the New Year yet and you're already smoking bacon?"
She portrayed the face of a villain who has succeeded to the fullest.
In ancient times, King You of Zhou played tricks on the princes with beacon fires. Now, she uses light fires to smoke bacon.
On the first day I arrived, the house was offered sacrifices to the heavens.
The two people who originally wanted to show off their power to Si Qian ended up suffering the consequences.
Si Qian walked up to Pei Tianming slowly and made a heart shape with his hands towards him.
"This is the first of three things a new official should do upon taking office."
Ye Tinglan covered her chest. This was really a huge show of power!
The butler beside him spoke tremblingly:
“Why are there two left?”
Si Qian pointed at Ye Tinglan and Pei Tianming and asked suspiciously:
"Aren't there still the two of them?"
The fortune teller said that she is a blessed person and will bring good fortune to her family.
Didn't this come true?
As soon as she arrived, they had a new house to live in.
A bunch of idiots!
If you don't listen to the advice of the elderly, you will suffer the consequences!
After hearing this, Pei Tianming's body trembled, his eyes rolled back and he fainted with burning sensation.
Pei Li truly felt that his five hundred thousand dollars was worth it:
"How can a person be so brave?"
