Following Quan Yugui's gaze, Li Fengci saw the female star singing on the Qingyin Pavilion stage in front of him. He tutted his tongue and said, "Such a good lady, but she insisted on becoming an actress... To put it nicely, she's a star, but to put it bluntly, she's just a toy..."
Quan Yugui's eyes twitched, and then he whispered, "Mom, that's my eldest brother's fiancée! And she's a noble lady, a top university student, she just loves art and that's why she goes into filmmaking!"
Li Fengci curled his lips in disdain. "Your eldest brother has such good conditions, but he only married a noblewoman of earldom... Of course, it might be because his own mother was only of marquisate. If he married someone with a higher title than his mother, then the relationship between the daughter-in-law and the mother-in-law in the future..."
Li Fengci seemed to be thinking of that scene and couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh.
The veins on Quan Yugui's forehead were throbbing.
He turned around abruptly, looked at Li Fengci, and said angrily in a low voice, "Enough! Mom! Not only do you dislike the first wife, but you also want to control the third wife. But no matter how hard you try, this title will never fall to our second wife!"
Li Fengci's face darkened, and he lowered his voice and said, "Are you drunk? What nonsense are you talking about?! When did I ever control the third wife?"
"Haha, you think I don't know about the secrets you and Secretary Zhao are up to?" Quan Yugui took a sip of his cocktail and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "I've already killed Secretary Zhao... Do you know what kind of security company she hired? She almost let Caiwei..."
Li Fengci snorted coldly, "I haven't even come to terms with you yet! No matter what my secretary did wrong, I should be the one to punish her! What do you mean by meddling in my duties?"
"...I'm your son and your secretary. How can I not do anything to you?"
Li Fengci: "...I have more than one son!"
Quan Yugui immediately said, "Okay, let the third brother come to Quan's and take care of this mess! I want to go back to being a doctor!"
He studied medicine and particularly liked to treat patients, but as soon as he got his degree, his mother Li Fengci pulled him back to Quan's and forced him to join the Quan's security department.
"Don't even think about it!" Li Fengci flatly objected, "You must lay a solid foundation within the Quan family! You are of noble status, who is worthy of you treating illnesses?!"
After saying that, she waved her long fishtail skirt and left angrily.
Quan Yugui: "..."
He took a deep breath, took another sip of the cocktail, and looked up to see his eldest cousin, dressed in a white suit, coming out of the main house in an elegant manner.
The grass was green and Quan Yuxun was very eye-catching in his white clothes.
As he walked along, members of the Quan family greeted him one after another.
"Yu Xun, long time no see. Come visit me at my house on Beichen Star when you have time. You work at the Senate, which isn't far from my home."
"Okay, Fourth Aunt, I'll come visit you when I have time."
"Yu Xun, your cousin has joined the army and has been assigned to the Fifth Interstellar Battleship. He won't be back for the New Year. Can you bring him something for me?"
"No problem, Third Aunt, just give the things to my secretary and they will ensure that they are delivered to Thirteenth Cousin."
"Yu Xun, will Quan's Mining sign Miss Mei as its spokesperson this year?"
"Uncle Seventeen, Jiang Li and I got engaged last year, so she's half a member of the Quan family. According to our regulations, members of the Quan family can't be spokespeople for their own companies, so it's not possible. But thank you, Uncle Seventeen, for taking care of her."
…
It took half an hour for Quan Yuxun to walk to Quan Yugui.
Quan Yugui put away his decadent and world-weary look and said with a smile, "Brother, I saw you coming out of the main house, but it took you half an hour to walk less than 500 meters."
Quan Yuxun smiled and said, "We are all relatives. We only see each other once every few years. It's only right that we should be polite."
Quan Yugui sneered and didn't respond.
Quan Yuxun was used to his behavior and pretended not to notice. He asked, "Have you seen Caiwei? Has she come out?"
Quan Yugui shook his head and said, "I didn't see her. But when she came back from Guiyuanxing, she said she was sick and never came out. She didn't even come to the family dinner on New Year's Eve. You know that..."
"But today is different. If Li's latest medical capsule can't cure her illness, then staying home won't help." Quan Yuxun looked at his quantum optical computer watch and said, "I'll go find her."
Mei Jiangli, who had finished singing in Qingyin Pavilion, also saw Quan Yuxun.
She watched him walk over with everyone's attention, and her heart was already filled with excitement.
She thought he was looking for her, so she gestured to her agent and told her that she would not sing after this song.
After singing, she went backstage to dress up again and waited for Quan Yuxun to pick her up.
After waiting for half an hour, Quan Yuxun still didn't come.
Mei Jiangli couldn't wait any longer, so he came down from Qingyin Pavilion and planned to find Quan Yuxun.
In the end, he didn't see Quan Yuxun, but he saw Yun Nuluo, the first secretary beside Quan Yuxun.
