Bright Throne

It was late at night, several black cars were speeding on the road in strange shapes, the street lights on both sides were left behind one by one, and finally they gradually drove towards a rather familiar manor.

When getting out of the car, Qin Yi squinted his eyes and looked in. This is indeed Pei's house, but he walked through another side door that he had never been to, so he didn't know if Pei Hanrui was at home.

The bodyguards in suits in several other cars quickly got off the car and stood in two rows at the door. The black iron gate was slowly opened, and there was a straight avenue in the middle of the lawn, as if some kind of confinement passage had been opened, which made Qin Yi quite It's funny.

The leader bowed slightly and made a gesture of invitation: "Mr. Qin, our boss is waiting for you inside."

Regardless of whether it was a Hongmen banquet or not, the etiquette and ostentation were done enough. It can be seen that this Boss Pei is probably a face-saving old-fashioned old-fashioned person. Qin Yi nodded at him and followed him in calmly.

This road passes through the large garden in the Pei family's courtyard. Qin Yi still remembers the first time he met the old man of the Pei family and got lost here. The man who led the way led him through an elegant glass corridor, where he could clearly see The scenery far away from the garden, and the stars shining in the sky.

Originally, Qin Yi was still admiring the unique night view here while walking, but after turning a corner, he saw the backs of a man and a woman from the floor-to-ceiling glass, strolling under the street lights in the garden.

The man is tall and straight, the woman is a small bird, the shadows of the two are drawn by the street lamps, the lonely man and the widow, talking at night in the garden, no matter how you look at it, it is a romantic and harmonious picture.Their backs were facing Qin Yi, and the distance was a little far away. They couldn't see this side at all. Qin Yi's footsteps stopped in place for a moment. He didn't recognize the woman, and the other one was clearly Pei Hanrui!

The man in the suit who led the way seemed to have expected it a long time ago, so he stopped at the spot and waited for a while, and said in a timely manner: "Mr. Qin, this way."

Qin Yi immediately understood why he took him through the side door, just to show him this?

He was a little speechless, and felt ridiculous, glanced at the other party, and continued to walk forward without saying a word. Finally, the man led him to stop in front of a solemn and elegant embossed door, opened one side for him, and said: "Our boss has been waiting inside for a long time, please come in, Mr. Qin."

The room is covered with a dark red carpet, which is so spacious that it even feels empty. From the pendulum clock to the desks, chairs and bookcases, every piece of furnishings is exquisitely crafted by famous masters, with a heavy and ancient atmosphere, from styles to colors. Gives a feeling of depressing solemnity.

Behind the large maroon desk, sat a middle-aged man with a condensed face. His appearance similar to Pei Hanrui revealed his identity. He folded his hands and fingers on the table, his brows were cold, from the moment Qin Yi came in , staring at him was full of undisguised questioning and scrutiny, as well as obvious contempt.

"You are Qin Yi?" Pei Mingze squinted his eyes and looked at the other party carefully. His eyes were deep and hard, as sharp as a knife on his face. He raised his hand and pointed to the sofa chair opposite, and said simply and indifferently, "Sit. "

If it was a different person, I am afraid that just being stared at by such oppressive eyes would cause cold sweat, but for Qin Yi, who has been relying on the attention of everyone all the year round to earn a living, there is no pressure at all.

However, he didn't intend to lift the burden with Pei Hanrui's father, he just sat down on the sofa in a good manner, folded his legs, looked at him calmly, and said concisely: "I am Qin Yi, what advice can Mr. Pei have?"

"The purpose of my inviting you here, you and I are very clear, so I won't beat around the bush."

Although the other party's calm attitude was different from what he had imagined, it didn't change Pei Mingze's mind. He frowned and said slowly: "I don't want to talk to you about true love and innocence, Han Rui He is the only son of my Pei family, passed on for three generations. Finding a wife who is well-matched for marriage is the most correct choice for his life and career. And, for you, it should be the same. "

"You should tell Pei Hanrui this, but I believe it is impossible for him to marry someone other than me, and I won't bother you." Qin Yi listened to his nonsense patiently, and held back his digging. The impulsive ear, trying to maintain a gentleman's demeanor, smiled.

"Marry you? Where did you get the confidence?" Pei Mingze sneered, and laughed angrily, "Can you give birth to him a son?"

Hey, it's your son who gave birth to me, sir...

In order to avoid making the other party angry, Qin Yi tactfully swallowed this sentence back to his stomach.

For the sake of a happy life in the future, it's not a big deal to pretend to be a grandson a little bit, but said frankly: "I am full of self-confidence. If Pei Hanrui really wants a son, there are many ways."

Pei Mingze snorted heavily, changed the subject, and said: "Aside from this, my Pei family is also a big and prestigious family. Hanrui's career is now in full swing. Apart from relying on him to make you popular and famous, you can't criticize him." , what else can you bring him?"

"You must have seen it too. That Miss Love is the granddaughter of the chairman of the French Macaulay Investment Company. She is also the wife candidate I have chosen for Hanrui. It complements each other, if you really love Hanrui as you advertised, why don't you consider him?"

Hearing this name, Qin Yi's expression suddenly became a little subtle, but Pei Mingze thought that he had persuaded him, took out a stack of checkbooks from the drawer, and said, "Of course, I won't let you leave Han Rui for nothing like this. , what do you want? Money, fame, I can give you everything, as long as you are willing to leave him, I can sign you to the largest brokerage company in France, give you countless endorsements and exposure, and make you a top ten international superstar Modeling is not difficult, or if you want something more realistic, 3000 million, is it enough?"

"Heh..." Qin Yi couldn't help laughing when he heard this, "So your son is worth the price."

Pei Mingze's face darkened, and his eyes became more contemptuous: "If you think it's too little, can I double it for you, or do you want [-] million? Hmph, is this so-called love? But it's just a bargain."

Qin Yi felt that he could no longer continue to play tricks with this old guy, and his thinking was not on the same level. Just as he cleared his throat and was about to sneer, he suddenly heard a knock on the door, followed by a respectful butler. Voice: "Sir, Mr. Jones McCauley is visiting."

Pei Mingze looked serious, and stood up from his chair. He had no time to pay attention to Qin Yi, opened the door, and asked the housekeeper, "Where are the others?"

"Oh, he's..."

Before the housekeeper finished speaking, there was a burst of angry laughter in the corridor. Under the guidance of several waiters, an old man with gray hair walked towards this side unhurriedly. He saw Pei Mingze from a distance, his gaze Jiong Jiong greeted him: "Hehe, Mr. Pei, I'm here to pick up my granddaughter, and I'll take a look at your excellent son. Come uninvited, you won't be unwelcome, right?"

"Of course not, I'm very welcome." Pei Mingze rarely showed a friendly smile, his attitude was quite different from what he had faced with Qin Yi just now, he went forward, held the other's hand, and said, "Come on, let's talk downstairs, Han Rui took Love to the garden for a walk, and I'll call someone to bring them back."

Jones froze for a moment, and said, "Hey, so you have guests now, so I can do it another day..."

"Oh no, it doesn't matter." Pei Mingze didn't want his future in-laws to know the relationship between Qin Yi and Pei Hanrui. He turned his head to Qin Yi who had just walked out of the room, and ordered in Chinese, "Qin Yi, just now Go back and think about what I told you, and we will talk about it next time."

Maybe it was in front of the "father-in-law", his tone was extremely gentle, but Qin Yi ignored him, his eyes fell on the old French man, smiled at him, and walked towards the two of them step by step.

Confused about Qin Yi's intentions, Pei Mingze thought he was going to reveal the matter in front of Jones, alarm bells rang out in his heart, and he lowered his voice: "Qin Yi, do you want to—"

"Mr. Qin? Why are you here?"

Pei Mingze was only halfway through his words, but he was interrupted by Jones unexpectedly. His surprise was no small matter: "You... know Qin Yi?"

Jones laughed loudly: "Of course, Mr. Qin is now my important partner. My main purpose of returning home this time is to see the progress of the company. I originally made an appointment with Mr. Qin to meet in two days, but I didn't expect to see him tonight Here, why do you know each other? What a coincidence, haha."

"...What?" Pei Mingze's expression became extremely strange, his eyes were full of disbelief, but he had to suppress the shock in his heart, which made his whole face contort.

"Yeah, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to see you here." Qin Yi didn't look at Pei Mingze's face, but smiled meaningfully at Jones Macaulay.

When the few people were exchanging greetings, the butler had already brought Pei Hanrui and Love over. Pei Hanrui hadn't seen Qin Yi's text message yet, but when he saw Qin Yi was here in person, he was "chatting" with his rigid father and Love's grandfather. "Very happy", I couldn't help being a little dazed for a while.

"Qin Yi, when did you come?" Pei Hanrui was originally walking beside Love, but when he saw him, he subconsciously came to Qin Yi's side. There was joy in his eyes that couldn't be concealed, and the delicate Love noticed it all at once. There was strange eye contact between them, their eyes darting back and forth between the two of them curiously.

Qin Yi raised the corner of his mouth and said lightly: "Well, it's been a while."

When Pei Hanrui saw his father's faint ashen face, he understood seven or eight points, and immediately took the opponent's hand backhand, expressing his position without hesitation and silently.

"Grandpa, let's go." Love tugged at the corner of the old man's clothes and said in a low voice. Jones was not blind either, and when he noticed something was wrong with the atmosphere, he immediately bid farewell wisely and left, but he had no deep meaning when he left. He looked at Qin Yi one last time.

Not long after, a farce that could be called absurd ended with a very dramatic result, and Qin Yi, father and son of the Pei family remained in the study, and the two generations faced each other silently.

"What did you say just now?" Pei Hanrui frowned, looked at Pei Mingze, and then fell on Qin Yi's face again.

Qin Yi patted the back of his hand reassuringly, turned his head and smiled at Pei Mingze: "It's nothing, we're just discussing the check."

Pei Hanrui's eyebrows suddenly tightened: "What?"

Qin Yi also took out a stack of checks from his wallet, walked slowly to the desk, ignored Pei Mingze's increasingly dark face, and took out a pen from the desk: "Please borrow a pen."

While filling in the numbers on the paper, he calmly said: "What you just said, such as agency companies, endorsements, and supermodels, I don't need it for a long time. Since in your heart, it is only a word of interest to anyone , then I am satisfied with you, there is a price for everything, I understand, 6000 million, buy you and don't stop me from being with Pei Hanrui, is it enough? If it is too little, I can double it for you, huh?"

"..."

Pei Mingze felt bad all of a sudden!
