trap rose

Now that Pei's father asked, Huo Duan naturally couldn't embarrass Pei Qingqing.

No matter what the other party's purpose is, Huo Duan can't stall his elders.

There was nothing to hide, so he responded in a normal manner.

As everyone knows, it was precisely because of what he said that Pei's father became alienated again.

Father Pei sneered, and his attitude suddenly became contemptuous.

"If this is the case, it will be difficult to divide the property in this family. If we Qingqing really marry you, we will not have to endure hardship in the past, but will enjoy happiness."

The suspicious eyes scanned it up and down, and finally came to a conclusion:

"You know, Qingqing has never suffered in our family. I am not trying to break up you. After all, this is your personal relationship and private matter and has nothing to do with me. But... my attitude must be with you now. show."

Father Pei stood up, took out a cigarette, took two puffs, then turned his head and continued:

"What I want is someone who can do things for the Pei family. Marrying Qingqing means that I will take care of the Pei family's company in the future. If you are together, I will watch the Pei family's company gradually expand, not slowly Decline, so you should know what I mean, right?"

Although what he said was very cryptic, Huo Duan and Pei Qingqing could understand each other's meaning.

He wanted a son-in-law who could handle the family business together with Pei Qingqing.

Although there is Pei Zhiyao in the family, he is not a member of the Pei family after all, and he even has his own selfish motives and ideas.

The important responsibility of inheriting the company naturally falls on Pei Qingqing's shoulders.

He didn't believe that a girl could take care of the family business, so he desperately wanted to find a son-in-law to handle these projects with Pei Qingqing.

Zhao Moxuan before was a good candidate.

On the surface, Pei's father handed over the project to Zhao Moxuan. It seemed that Pei Qingqing only took the power of the company but did not get the actual project. But in fact, Zhao Moxuan was the one who was thankless for his efforts.

When the project is negotiated, all the funds obtained belong to Pei Qingqing and the Pei family.

Zhao Moxuan is just the one helping Pei Qingqing in the front.

It's just that Zhao Moxuan harbored evil intentions, which Father Pei didn't expect.

Now, the only candidate for son-in-law has been eliminated by Pei Qingqing, and he can only place his hope on Huo Duan.

But after some questioning just now, Father Pei seemed not satisfied. With two boys in the family, it is easy for them to have property disputes.

Huo Duan has no experience in running a company on his own, so it is naturally inconvenient for him to take care of the Pei family's projects.

Father Pei thinks long-term, so he is always worried.

"Forget it, it's up to you whether you can understand or not. You can chat while I go back to my room to rest."

The cigarette butts were snuffed out in the ashtray.

Then he turned around and walked towards the second floor.

Huo Duan stood up and said respectfully, "Then I won't bother you anymore. Uncle, I will visit you in person another day and have wine and dinner with you."

Pei Qingqing stood up and left together with him.

The villa fell into silence again.

Pei Qingqing let out a long sigh, feeling even more depressed when he left the door.

Huo Duan, who was next to him, came forward and took the initiative to ask about Pei Qingqing's situation.

"What's wrong? Are you still unhappy because of what happened just now? Is it because of your brother and your sister-in-law, or because of..."

Huo Duan hesitated for a moment, but still said it.

"It's still because uncle said about our marriage."

Pei Qingqing was not only worried about Pei Zhiyao's situation, but also worried about his marriage.

It is inevitable for her and Zhao Moxuan to separate.

But being with Huo Duan was an accident.

She didn't want to marry Huo Duan. When meeting her parents today, she just wanted to see Pei's father's attitude.

Unexpectedly, Pei's father's words made Pei Qingqing fall into silence.
