Chapter 35： They look somewhat similar (edit)

Chapter 35 Looks a bit similar (revised)

Shortly after Pei Anzhu left the Shen family, Shen Qinghe received a call.

The call was from his assistant:

“Mr. Shen, there is a business reception at the Xianyou Palace at eight o’clock tonight. It is hosted by the Feng family. Most people in Yuncheng choose to attend because of the Feng family’s reputation.”

“I’ve asked you several times before, but you didn’t give me a clear answer. You said I’d look at it then, but there’s not much time before the reception starts. What do you mean…”

After hearing this, Shen Qinghe suddenly remembered—

Not long ago, his assistant did tell him about this.

It is said that the second young master of the Feng family returned home after studying and was ready to take over the family business. This cocktail party was prepared by the Feng family to pave the way for the second young master to expand his contacts.

The Feng family is truly a top-notch wealthy family, a prestigious family that has been standing for two hundred years.

Not only in Yuncheng, but even in the whole country, he is a true business overlord, an uncrowned king, and his accumulation of assets is shocking.

Therefore, whenever the Feng family holds a cocktail party, many business people will flock to it.

Although the Shen family is not bad, the Shen family has only been around for a hundred years. Although it is also called a wealthy family, in terms of foundation, it is a bit worse than the Feng family.

The Feng family sent an invitation letter. Logically speaking, Shen Qinghe should have gone without hesitation, but at that time he was troubled by the fox fairy's curse and was plagued by nightmares.

He was worried that he would hallucinate at the cocktail party, lose his temper in front of business celebrities, or let his competitors notice the clues, so he put the invitation aside and ignored it.

Today…

Since the curse has been removed and the fox fairy has become a family fairy, it is natural to go to this cocktail party.

“Have someone send you the dress.” Shen Qinghe ordered.

“I’ll do it right away.” The assistant promised.

Given Shen Qinghe's status in Yuncheng, it's not necessary to arrive at the scene late. It doesn't matter if it's a little later.

Therefore, there is still time for him and his wife to make some preparations.

He is quite simple, mainly because Mrs. Shen has to change into a dress and do some styling. No matter how efficient the assistant is, this whole process took almost two hours.

Shen Qinghe arrived at Xianyou Palace with his wife and entered the banquet hall on the red carpet.

People were coming and going in the hall, dressed in fragrant clothes and drinking glasses. Almost all the well-known families in Yuncheng were here, and of course there were also many wealthy businessmen from other places.

Mrs. Shen held Shen Qinghe's arm and accompanied him to greet people he knew.

There were not many people who needed Shen Qinghe to take the initiative to greet them, and it was over after a while. At this time, a couple walked towards them:

“Mr. Shen, long time no see.”

The speaker’s surname is Pei, and he is Pei Jinchang, the head of the Pei family, one of the richest people in Yuncheng.

Compared to the Shen family, the Pei family has been around for a shorter period of time. It has only been fifty or sixty years since its rise to the present, and it has not exceeded three generations so far.

Although it is also called a wealthy new rich, compared with a century-old family, it can only be regarded as an upstart.

However, Pei Jinchang has some tricks. He married the daughter of the Zhou family, one of the century-old famous families, and achieved strong alliances and resource reorganization, which has led to rapid development in recent years.

Shen Qinghe and Pei Jinchang are not the same people.

However, hypocrisy and compromise are common in the business world. Even if there are conflicts of interest and market snatching behind the scenes, as long as there is no deep hatred and complete rift, there is still harmony on the surface.

So Shen Qinghe nodded at him and said, "Mr. Pei."

“Mr. Shen is here just in time. I just mentioned the cooperation in developing Qiyun Mountain with Mr. Liu and the others. Mr. Shen, you are the leader of the Yuncheng real estate industry...”

Pei Jinchang took Shen Qinghe to discuss the project, leaving only Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Pei.

In order to avoid the embarrassment, the two started chatting about women's clothes, bags and jewelry, and launched a unique "lady's diplomacy". Mrs. Shen was chatting, and suddenly she felt that Mrs. Pei in front of her looked familiar—

Her facial features are very similar to Master Pei, who came to Shen's house during the day to solve the fox fairy's curse, but their temperaments are completely different.

Mrs. Pei’s name is Zhou Yalan.

She has exquisite makeup, a good figure, decent clothes, and elegant manners. Even though she is middle-aged, her face does not look like there are many traces of age.

A pair of eyes seemed to be filled with mist, like a dodder flower being coddled in a greenhouse.

That's right. As the daughter of a wealthy family, she grew up under the favor of her father and brother.

Later he met Pei Jinchang. In order to gain the support of the Zhou family, he naturally wanted to hold the little princess Zhou Yalan in his hands.

Because of this, even though Zhou Yalan has been married for decades, she still lives in the ivory tower carefully built by her father, brother, and husband every day, without any worries.

This innocent and almost stupid temperament prevented Mrs. Shen from immediately associating her with Pei Anzhu.

If we say, Mrs. Pei is a dodder flower that is carefully cared for.

Then Pei Anzhu, just like her name, is a tall and tough bamboo, indifferent and proud, who would rather break than bend, but also has a hidden edge.

Such two people with completely different temperaments, if Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Pei hadn't chatted long enough and observed them carefully enough, we really wouldn't have noticed that they looked somewhat similar.

Master Pei’s surname is also Pei. Does she have anything to do with the Pei family?

No one knows Mrs. Shen’s thoughts for the time being. At this time, Pei Anzhu has successfully entered Cui Yun’s home.

***

Cui Yun’s wife’s name is Han Yuhong.

She and Cui Yun work in the same company, but in different departments. She works in the technical department, responsible for system maintenance, server operation, etc.

 Coming from a science and engineering background, she usually focuses on logic when thinking about problems and is a rational person. She originally didn’t believe much in metaphysics.

Not long ago, Cui Yun came back from a business trip in Pingcheng and said that the live broadcast platform had signed a metaphysics anchor who would come to change the feng shui of the home. She just laughed it off and didn't take it seriously.

Until later, Cui Yun took her to watch the second live broadcast of [Qingzhu Fairy Lord].

She saw the scene where the other party was beating up a ghost online, and the door to a new world was immediately opened, and her outlook on life was violently impacted.

Later, after searching all the information about [Qingzhu Immortal Lord] on Weibo, she finally believed that he was a really capable boss.

So, when Pei Anzhu rang the doorbell, she couldn't wait to open the door:

“Master Pei, please come in.”

Even though her husband had reminded her in advance that Master Pei was not too old, she was still shocked by his too young face.

Pei Anzhu felt the other party's enthusiasm and nodded:

“Hello, Mrs. Cui, at the invitation of Mr. Cui, I am here to improve the feng shui of your home.”

"I heard Lao Cui mention this." Han Yuhong said, "To be honest, I have been troubled by our family's inability to save money, and now there is a solution."

When I reach middle age, I am old and young, and I am really anxious if I don’t have any savings.

"Leave it to me." Pei Anzhu said with a smile, "Can you take me to your home to see it now? I need to see the overall layout of your home before I can start to change the Feng Shui."

"No problem, please follow me." Han Yuhong said and led Pei Anzhu inside.
