Pei Huai looked ahead as he walked. His tone was light. “It’s time.”
Du Meilan looked at her youngest son.
However, it was rare to see such an expression on his face.
“Yeah, it’s about time. In a few months, her pregnancy will show. Shouldn’t we hold the wedding before then?” Du Meilan agreed. “Pick a good day. After you get your marriage certificate, bring Su Ji home for dinner…”
She finished speaking in one breath and arranged everything in one go.
Pei Huai smiled, his mood extremely good.
The relaxed atmosphere was paused when the two of them entered the Pei family’s courtyard.
A black car stopped in the courtyard, and Pei Shizhan got out of the driver’s seat.
There was nothing special in the Pei family today. It was just that the matter of Anna and the duke leaving was not enough for Pei Shizhan to make a trip to the Pei family.
Not only did he come, but he also drove here personally.
There must be something important.
Moreover, the mother and son both had a tacit understanding that this matter would definitely not be good news for them.
Closing the car door, Pei Shizhan looked at Du Meilan. His expression was difficult to understand, even Pei Huai could not guess the reason for it at the moment.
“I’ll go to the study first,” Pei Huai said to Du Meilan as he withdrew his gaze from the person.
Du Meilan nodded.
After Pei Huai left, Pei Shizhan walked in front of Du Meilan. “If you’re not busy, I have something to discuss with you.”
His tone was heavy. It was a rather difficult thing to do, but Du Meilan only smiled grandly and then walked inside. “It just so happens that I have something to discuss with you.”
Pei Shizhan nodded and followed her into the room.
Du Meilan turned her back to him and said, “your youngest son is going to register his marriage with his fiancée.”
Pei Shizhan paused, but his expression changed slightly.
Pei Huai entered the study on the first floor, while Pei Shizhan and Du Meilan went to the room on the top floor.
Half an hour later, the door to the room on the top floor was still closed. Shen Mu came to the Pei family’s house and entered the room on the first floor. He was called over by his CEO.
Pei Qingshen also came back. He was in high spirits. It had been a long time since he had played chess so smoothly.
When he heard from the butler that Pei Huai and the others had also gone to Central Park, he said regretfully, “then they must not have seen me. What a pity. I should really let them see how I killed Old Wang next door!”
Shen Mu was here to deliver some official documents to the CEO. As soon as he entered the study, he handed over the documents that the CEO had arranged with both hands.
The different contracts were placed in transparent files of different colors, and the pages that needed the CEO’s signature were all marked with cute little clips.
When it came to such meticulous work, no one could do it better than Shen Mu.
When he put down the documents, he would sneak a glance at the CEO’s computer screen as usual to see if there was anything that could help the CEO solve his problems. Then, he saw that his CEO was looking up a document.
It was information about the Jiang Corporation.
Shen Mu immediately recalled the merger and acquisition case from more than ten years ago. That was the case that made him dedicate his life to his boss!
However, why did the CEO suddenly think of this?
As far as he knew, the branches that had been acquired from Jiang Corporation back then had been integrated into the Pei Corporation very well. There was no reiection-
Pei Huai was wearing a pair of thin-rimmed glasses. The lenses were thin and did not have any power. It had the effect of blocking blue light.
That pair of long and narrow eyes were hidden under the lens, and there was less sharpness and aggressiveness. He had a refined air about him, unlike Pei Song.
His slender fingers slowly tapped on the table as he muttered, “if I remember correctly, the Jiang family only had one boy back then.”
“???” Shen Mu quickly followed the CEO’s train of thought. “Yes, when we acquired the Jiang Corporation, there was only one young master in the Jiang family. At that time, he seemed to be six or seven years old?”
Pei Huai’s gaze was still on the computer screen. The lines of text reflected colors on his glasses.
The heirs of the major families in China had always been the focus of the industry.
From the first time the young masters appeared in public, comments about their character and appearance would come one after another.
There had been rumors long before the merger:
The young master of the Pei family was the third in the family, but he was the most mature and shrewd of the three siblings. He was even more outstanding than his previous generation.
On the other hand, the Jiang Corporation was the complete opposite. It was said that although the future heir, Jiang Chu, was very beautiful and did not lose to the Pei family in terms of looks, he had no interest in inheriting the family business. He was also a spendthrift. He liked leather bags and branded perfumes. He had shown an amazing ability to burn money since he was young.
However, Jiang Chu was still young at that time, and some people said that they couldn’t tell. But after all these years, the evaluation of this young master did not change.
The current head of the family, Jiang Suiheng, rarely mentioned his only son.
Jiang Suiheng had always been brooding over the bankruptcy of the Jiang Corporation. He had never given up the idea of making a comeback for so many years. As the saying goes, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. Moreover, Pei Huai had given them a considerable sum of money during the merger and acquisition. Later, he heard that Jiang Suiheng had attended some of the famous wine banquets in City B. However, every time someone asked about his son, Jiang Suiheng would inevitably lose his temper. As time passed, no one dared to mention it.
Just like that, the situation regarding the next head of the Jiang family became a mystery.
Although Pei Huai hadn’t heard anything about Jiang Suiheng for a few years, the Pei family and the Jiang family were definitely sworn enemies. Jiang Suiheng had been keeping an eye on the Pei family until now.
The reason why Pei Huai thought of these things was because he saw the symbol on the woman’s ring in the hospital corridor that day.
Although it was just a flash, he was not mistaken.
With a few clicks of the mouse, the screen changed to a totem.
It seemed to be the same as the totem on the ring.
Shen Mu was shocked when he heard the reason. “Boss, are you sure you didn’t see wrongly? Is it exactly the same as this pattern?”
Pei Huai looked at him expressionlessly, and Shen Mu’s eyebrows twitched.
What kind of question was he asking?
Was his head kicked by a donkey?
How could his boss be wrong?
However, when he looked at the picture on the computer again, Shen Mu’s expression was full of doubt.
The CEO said that it was a woman, but this logo was indeed only used by the Jiang Corporation’s main branch.
Old Master Jiang was a very old-fashioned person when he was alive. He valued
the inheritance of his descendants and his direct relatives very much.
In other words, according to the ancestral teachings of the Jiang family, this symbol could only appear on the current head of the Jiang family, Jiang Suiheng, and the future heir, Jiang Chu..
