In the capital city.
Despite being the wealthiest family in the capital city, the Pei family’s old residence was simple and humble. It wasn’t ostentatious, but it was warm and homely.
Old Master Pei didn’t like having his house as a venue for celebrations, so he chose a seven star hotel owned by the Pei corporation.
It was also what young people liked.
Even though it was the old master’s birthday celebration, everyone wanted to seize the opportunity to get to know the Pei family.
Countless luxury sports cars stopped at the entrance. Entrepreneurs, businessmen, celebrities in expensive suits and extravagant gowns and streamed into the hotel in pairs.
The reporters outside raised their cameras and snapped photos of the rich and powerful people. They might not have another chance to see some of these elusive people ever again.
Old Master Pei had carried a gun and fought the Japanese army before. He came from a military family, and even after he entered the business world, his family still served in the military. Currently, his eldest son wielded power as a senior official in the capital city.
Needless to say, the Pei Corporation had dominated the business world for many years and their position had never wavered.
At this event, officials and businessmen had gathered today. The scene was indeed unprecedented and magnificent.
Old Master Pei’s second grandson, Pei Anzhi, had provided many headlines for the media back then. As a result, his granddaughter-in-law was upset and affected by those headlines. This made Old Master Pei develop a dislike for these reporters.
Thus, these reporters could only wait at the entrance of the hotel, hoping to dig for some news.
Shen Fanxing and Bo Jinchuan had reached the hotel the day before.
Shen Fanxing, Bo Jinchuan, Xu Qingzhi, and Yin Ruijue, who had insisted on tagging along since he had nothing better to do, were headed to the event hall. Not long after, they met the couple, Pei Anzhi and Ye Susu on the same level.
Although the couple already had a son and daughter who were around the same age as them, their splendor and beauty didn’t diminish.
Pei Anzhi wore a lavish suit that wrapped around his tall and lean body. His dark eyebrows reflected his usual coldness and distance. A beautiful woman was wrapped around his arm. Her long hair was pulled back into an elegant hairdo and she was wearing a simple champagne-colored evening gown. Exquisite pearl earrings decorated her ears. She was intellectual and graceful, and she looked like a classic Asian beauty.
“CEO Pei, Madam Pei.”
Shen Fanxing shifted her gaze and stepped forward to greet Pei Anzhi and Ye Susu.
Ye Susu looked at Shen Fanxing and nodded with a smile.
Pei Anzhi didn’t respond.
“You’re here.”
To Pei Anzhi, he didn’t care who the other party was. The only one whom he could tolerate was his wife.
“I’m really sorry about what happened previously. I should have come earlier…”
“That’s nothing. I’ve read news worse than that. I’m used to it.”
Upon hearing that, a subtle awkwardness flashed across Pei Anzhi’s dashing face.
Bo Jinchuan raised an eyebrow and looked at Pei Anzhi. “That’s good, it’s time to settle our scores.”
Ye Susu turned to glance at Bo Jinchuan and Pei Anzhi before smirking. “Take your time then. We’ll get going.”
Pei Anzhi opened his mouth to ask his wife to stay, but Ye Susu had callously left him with Bo Jinchuan, the ignorant rascal.
…
There was no lack of good-looking men and beautiful women in the hall. All of them wore long gorgeous gowns and tailor-made suits.
Shen Fanxing’s outfit tonight wasn’t outstanding.
