Chapter 90 Pei's Heir
"Why are you standing there?"
Pei Shinian frowned and looked at him.
"I came to ask where my room is."
Lin Hexun had an innocent look in his eyes, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with bothering him.
Pei Shinian then remembered that most of the rooms in the villa had been arranged and there were no extra rooms for him.
"You can stay here for the time being."
He raised his hand and pointed to the room next door that originally belonged to him, turned downstairs without hesitation, and immediately began to arrange the welcoming banquet in the evening.
As for where he sleeps at night? There will always be a place when the time comes, and there are more important things waiting for him to do.
The welcoming banquet in the evening, as well as Pei's return banquet soon after, need to be carefully prepared and no mistakes can be made.
With Pei Shinian's careful preparation, the grand homecoming banquet finally kicked off.
The banquet was scheduled at Jingbai, which he was more familiar with.
At six o'clock in the evening, before the event officially started, the entrance of Jingbai was surrounded by all kinds of luxury cars.
The banquet hall was decorated quite luxuriously. When the crystal chandeliers on the dome lit up, the high-heeled glasses on the champagne-colored tablecloths in the hall were instantly plated with gold edges.
The guests in formal attire clinked their glasses, and the sound of violin concerto mingled with their conversations.
There were also many who sneaked in hoping to take this opportunity to make more contacts, such as Pei Shinian's "old friends" Xu Zhiyuan and Huang Jianlin, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
There were also Shen Yuan and Gu Yanshen who arrived late after finishing their work.
"A Yuan, you said that many people guessed that you would attack Pei's company. If they see you at the banquet, will they think you are here to mess things up? So what are you doing here? Are you really going to attack Pei's company? Calm down,"
Gu Yanshen raised his eyes to look at Shen Yuan with a puzzled expression, and asked in confusion.
The man walking beside him did not answer his question, but just adjusted his bow tie and cuffs uncomfortably.
If Gu Yanshen knew that Shen Yuan arrived so late just because he went back home and picked out a black suit with dark patterns from a pile of black haute couture suits in the cloakroom, he would definitely make fun of him for a long time.
Today he had carefully groomed his hair and his spirits were much better. If Shen Yuan had lived like a zombie for the past five years, then today he seemed to be alive again. No, it should be that Shen Yuan had come back to life since the day he knew that Pei Shinian had returned to China.
Gu Yanshen just felt that Shen Yuan was a little weird tonight. Normally, he always cared so much about his dress and manners.
Before he could ask further questions, Pei Shangyan, who was standing on a high place, had already started his speech.
"Good evening, distinguished guests, relatives and friends!"
Thank you all for taking the time out of your busy schedule to come here today and make this banquet even more glorious.
On behalf of Pei's, I would like to extend my warmest welcome to every future partner present here. I would also like to take this opportunity to introduce to you our future successors of Pei's. ”
After saying that, he turned around and looked towards the shadow on the right with pride.
As everyone at the banquet looked towards the stage not far away, a tall figure slowly walked towards Pei Shangyan's right hand side.
The crisp white suit was tailored to fit the shoulder line, the cufflinks glowed with a cold silver light in the dim light, a bow tie of the same color was tied around the neck, the corners of the lips were slightly raised, revealing the two dimples on the cheeks, but when he raised his eyes, the amber pupils under the messy hair were coated with a layer of gilded luster.
The sound of leather shoes stepping on the red carpet was extremely light, but every step seemed to knock on people's hearts, until he came to the front of the stage, stopped, and tapped the wine glass with his knuckles - with the clear and crisp sound, the noise in the room suddenly turned into silent starlight.
The entire banquet hall suddenly fell into deathly silence.
Most of them were surprised that the successor of the Pei family was so young. Could it be that Pei Shangyan was senile?
Those who knew Pei Shinian showed different expressions when they saw this scene.
Xu Zhiyuan, who was originally somewhat curious about the heir of the Pei family, was now horrified and wished he could bury his head under the table and hide himself.
But Pei Shinian's eyes inadvertently swept in his direction, and their eyes met briefly. Before Xu Zhiyuan could react, Pei Shinian looked away. That look gave people a bad feeling.
Without time to think about it, Xu Zhiyuan turned around and walked towards the door.
As soon as he walked out of the door, before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, he was captured and taken away by Xiao Feng and others who had been waiting there.
"I'm sure you must be very curious about the identity of this successor. He is my biological son, Pei Shangyan, who has been wandering outside for nearly 20 years. He is more outstanding than you think! He will definitely lead the Pei family to a higher level."
The two people on the stage smiled at each other and raised their glasses together.
The audience at this moment.
"Lu Shinian?!? How could he be Pei Shangyan's son? Ah Yuan, did you know this a long time ago?"
Gu Yanshen almost spit out his wine. It was really unbelievable that two people who seemed to have nothing in common in his impression were actually related by blood, and were even father and son.
"have no idea."
Shen Yuan just stared at Pei Shinian on the stage with burning eyes, afraid that he would disappear in the blink of an eye.
When they finally finished their speeches and returned to the stage, they walked quickly in his direction.
As the host of the banquet, he was definitely the focus of the crowd, not to mention Pei Shinian's elegant and dignified appearance at the moment.
They were all waiting for him to choose a partner for the first dance of the night.
Many women present looked at him expectantly.
--Cen Xian failed again at the critical moment.
Just as he was about to invite the girl closest to him, he spread out his palms and was about to speak.
Suddenly, a person came up to him without warning, forcibly held his hand in his palm, and pulled Pei Shinian to the center of the dance floor.
"you..."
Pei Shinian reacted and was about to see who was so rude.
He tilted his head and suddenly bumped into Shen Yuan's eyes which were as dark as deep pools.
Before he could pull his hand away from Shen Yuan's, the sound of music resounded throughout the banquet hall, and everyone at the banquet looked at them, waiting for their next move.
If Pei Shinian just walked away at this time, it would confirm the discord between the Shen family and the Pei family, which would obviously be disadvantageous for the Pei family who had just returned to China.
With this in mind, it would be fine to dance with him, but he should have the final say on who takes the lead.
On the dance floor, Pei Shinian's shoulders were tense and the tips of his leather shoes made a crackling sound as they rubbed against the polished floor.
The cuffs rise in an arc when you turn.
Suddenly, Shen Yuan blocked the rhythm gap with a neat backstep, and the two men put their palms together but competed secretly - like two unsheathed swords measuring their sharpness in the tango melody, neither of them wanted to let the strength in their wrists weaken by even a little bit.
In a blink of an eye, after several rounds, the two of them were fighting each other, and the picture of them standing together was particularly pleasing to the eye.
One is black and the other is white, both have the same tall and straight figure, Shen Yuan is only slightly half a head taller than Pei Shinian.
When the climax of "One Step Away" reached his feet, Pei Shinian suddenly stepped back, bowed, and took two steps back. Thunderous applause broke out all around him.
It seems that there is no discord between the Shen and Pei families. I don’t know where the rumor came from. It’s too unreliable.
"Boss Shen, I have something else to do, so I'll leave you alone for now. We'll work together again if there's a chance."
After saying that, Pei Shinian was about to step back and leave the dance floor.
"Dad Pei."
A soft and affectionate childish voice sounded from behind the two of them.
I don't know what nerve the voice touched in Shen Yuan, but the corners of his mouth, which were originally upturned, were pushed down, and his expression suddenly became as ugly as it could be.
