The aunt and niece are like flies, impossible to get rid of. They didn't leave before, and they certainly won't leave in the future. Especially Pei Guangzong, who needs a legitimate identity and needs the Pei family to help him gain a foothold.
Watching them argue and bicker, Wan Jie and Chen Ge couldn't help but curl their lips into a smile. They could only say that the Pei family had lost their minds.
Pei Guangzong was no fool. Now that he was the son-in-law of the Du family, why would he need the inferior Pei family? Pei Guangzong couldn't wait to sever ties with the Pei family, so as not to be dragged down by them.
Pei Antong's heart sank, but she became active again. She dared not hope for Fu Jingchen and the Crown Prince, but she secretly found out that Sheng Qing was still single. As long as she married him, she would instantly become the wife of a regimental commander, and would not have to go to the countryside, but would go directly to the army.
Moreover, Sheng Qing is the grandson of the eldest son of the Sheng family, one of the five most prestigious families. She has married into a powerful and wealthy family and risen to prominence.
In the blink of an eye, Sheng Qing bumped into Pei Antong, whose eyes were full of affection, and blurted out that it was an eyesore.
He had seen that look in her eyes far too many times; she clearly wanted to cling to him. "Don't be obsessed with me, I already have a boyfriend, my boyfriend is Fu Wanning!"
"I'm not..." Fu Wanning was about to correct him. Her sister-in-law clearly said that her true love was Gu Sijin, the eldest brother of the Gu family, and that Sheng Qing was not the true love who came to marry her on a cloud in her dreams. However, seeing Sheng Qing's pleading eyes, she could only put her hands on her hips and glare at Pei Antong. "Pei Antong, you better behave yourself. You were flirting with my brother yesterday, and today you want to flirt with Sheng Qing. You are really fickle. Get lost. He is not someone you can covet."
Sheng Qing has recently been looking for partners with strong personalities like his sister-in-law. He has considered pursuing Fu Wan Ning, but whenever he sees her face, he can't help but fantasize about dating "Brother Chen". He decides against it, as he can't handle it.
Fu Wanning is a good person, but she doesn't belong to him. He should wait for his sister-in-law to introduce him to a reliable friend. He must not be like Gu Peichuan, who had such poor taste. He rejected his good sister and chose a two-faced mama's girl instead. Fortunately, his sister-in-law intervened and broke up the ill-fated relationship. Now, Gu Peichuan's ex-girlfriend is still suffering in Yunnan Province.
Fu Wanning exposed Pei Antong's intentions in public, but surprisingly, she didn't receive any disapproval from Pei's family or her own mother. If Pei Antong were to truly marry Sheng Qing...
For a moment, the Pei family members had different thoughts, and their eyes looked at Pei Antong with more 'affection'. They all hoped that Pei Antong would successfully win over Sheng Qing, and if necessary, they would lend her a hand.
Pei Danfeng, however, had her own ideas. She planned to rent an extra room from the Fu siblings and invite her daughter over. Being close to them would help cultivate their relationship. If Sheng Qing took a liking to her daughter, then their family would have a chance, and she would become the Sheng family's in-law. Wouldn't that be much more prestigious than the Du family?
Pei Antong is not a true member of the Pei family, so naturally she won't be of one mind with the Pei family. She might even be an ingrate.
Sheng Qing, with Fu Wan Ning as a shield, didn't take the Pei family seriously, but Wan Jie and Chen Ge saw through the Pei family's ambition.
After being widely circulated among neighbors early this morning, rumors are now circulating in Beijing's social circles that Gu Qiulin and Gu Huaien are not the biological children of the Gu family.
These rumors naturally reached the ears of the He family.
Therefore, the He family held a family meeting to discuss this matter...
