Chapter 218 - 214: If We Were Together Earlier②
At the end of August, Qin Fang’s birthday party was held at the Qin Family’s townhouse. Regardless of how favored he was by his biological father, he was nominally the only young master of the Qin Family, and the birthday party was grand enough, with many business partners of the Qin Family in attendance.
By evening, two Rolls-Royces with consecutive numbers drove into the underground garage, the first one being most conspicuous, recognized by many.
"The young master of the Pei Family has arrived," someone whispered quietly.
There were many children in the Pei Family, but recently only one had been the focus of attention. Father Pei often took this young master with him when discussing serious matters, clearly intending to cultivate him carefully. It was uncertain how much of Pei’s vast family business would be allotted to him, and people had already begun to quietly calculate, although this young master was not easy to please, and over the years only a few had managed to befriend him.
The car door opened, and Pei Yu stepped down from the vehicle, dressed formally for the banquet in a well-tailored white suit, his broad shoulders and long legs particularly striking, his stature tall and slender, embodying the unrestrained flair of youth, yet already beginning to show a hint of unusual sober sternness.
He habitually wore a cold expression, his face showing little emotion, his finely sculpted brows and eyes shrouded with frost, making those who wanted to approach him for a conversation unable to take a step forward.
From the following car, a tall young man in a black suit alighted, Fu Songzhi, softer in demeanor than Pei Yu but still not easy to get along with, quickly walked a few paces to catch up with Pei Yu, draping his arm loosely over his shoulder.
"What’s wrong, you look to be in a so-so mood today?"
It was common, as Pei Yu often had many bad moods, usually related to family matters. Father Pei valued him, yet trusted him little, let alone showed closeness; moreover, not one of his brothers and sisters were easy to deal with.
Pei Yu hummed lowly and briefly said, "They want me to study abroad."
It was common for children from rich families to study abroad, but Pei Yu’s situation was different. His brothers and sisters had already established themselves in Pei’s enterprises, and to send him out when he was still growing seemed blatantly malicious.
