Chapter 391: Chapter 391: Arranging an Early Engagent to Bring Joy to Elder Pei

There are rumors that Li Zhu is just one incarnation of Master Ye Yi!

“The main reason I ca this ti is for your engagent party, and secondly, there’s an event I need you to attend with .”

An event that warrants Li Zhu’s personal attendance and has Hai Xin accompanying her throughout must certainly be extraordinary.

“Alright, I understand. I’ve already arranged everything for the hotel. If you have any issues, Master, my secretary is at your disposal.”

The mont Shen Yanhan saw Li Zhu, the light in her eyes never dimd!

This was the fashion queen, the reigning champion of the fashion world for multiple titles, Li Zhu!

Many of her designs were tiless classics, milestones that could never be surpassed!

Shen Yanhan, in her excitent, exclaid, “Ms. Li, if you need anything, please let know! Your loyal butler, Little Shen, will protect you!”

Li Zhu laughed heartily and directed Hai Xin, who was behind her, to carry her luggage upstairs.

Qingwu introduced, “Master, I’ve arranged a sea-view room for you, and your als will be tailored to your preferences.”

“As expected, Little Qing knows best!”

Upon stepping into the room, she saw that the oversized suite had everything arranged to her liking, down to the bedsheets in her preferred patterns and materials. Beside the bed were exquisite jade carvings, undoubtedly handcrafted by Qingwu herself.

It was no secret in the industry that Li Zhu’s favorite jade carvings were those by Master Yu Lan.

Seeing how Li Zhu couldn’t put the jade carvings down, Qingwu smiled softly.

“I missed giving you a gift for your birthday, but I’ve prepared everything now—this ti, they’re all yours.”

“My darling, you always spoil !”

Only Qingwu would rember everyone’s preferences and send them various thoughtful gifts every year!

For them, it wasn’t about the value of the gift but that feeling of being cherished and cared for!

Li Zhu brushed a hand against the silk quilt. “Is this from our own collection?”

“Yes, we’ve just developed a new type of silk. I wanted you to try it first—the embroidery on it is by Master Ye Yi.”

Li Zhu understood imdiately: this ant the embroidery was handcrafted by Qingwu herself!

“You always put so much thought into things. This ti, besides being here for your engagent, I do have other matters to address.”

Hai Xin chid in, “Sister Li just can’t rest easy leaving you alone here. And those annoying brats! She’s also here to deal with the old devils from the older generation.”

Li Zhu was well aware of which mbers of the older Beidou Star generation were still alive in the world!

Qingwu pursed her lips. “Master, who exactly had the authority to allow the Beidou Star project to exist?”

“Naturally, it was soone of high power and influence. Do you think anyone who can stand beside Ye Qilan is simple? My trip this ti is also to et with him. Even though I’ve handed Beidou Star over to you, I still need to clean things up for you.”

“As for who it is, haven’t you ever wondered why there are only twenty-four stars in your Beidou Star project?”

The Beidou Star project was nad after the twenty-eight constellations. The remaining four belonged to those aligned with Ye Qilan!

Anyone who signed off on the Beidou Star project had, without a doubt, already joined its ranks.

Li Zhu adjusted her shawl, the lace gloves on her hands adorned with expensive, rounded Australian pearls—both elegant and refined.

“That person’s forr codena was Seven Kills!”

…

At Qiao Xi Hospital in Beijing.

Outside Elder Pei’s hospital room, an elegantly dressed woman hurried over with several children in tow.

After receiving the news, Pei Family’s eldest daughter, Du Shu, imdiately returned to Beijing with her family in haste.

Dust-covered from the journey, Du Shu’s face was etched with relentless worry.

Behind her, a young woman followed, darting glances around with barely concealed excitent.

At last, there was another chance to see Pei Jue!

Although they were technically uncle and niece, Pei Jue and Du Shu were not particularly close. They would rarely reach out to each other throughout the year, leaving her without opportunities to see him…

This ti, it was only thanks to Elder Pei’s critical illness that Ju Ming, Du Shu’s husband’s niece, could accompany the family to the Pei residence!

Du Shu had no ntal bandwidth for Ju Ming’s little sches; she turned to the Pei matriarch, and before she could speak, tears began to flow!

“Mom…”

“It’s alright. It’s good that you’re back.”

Du Shu, taking her mother’s surna Du, had an emotionally distant relationship with the Pei matriarch. But in such a mont, even Du Shu couldn’t help but cry!

“How much ti does Dad have left?”

“No more than a month. Your Uncle Shen is sitting with him right now. And since you’re back, we’re planning to arrange the engagent party for Xiao Wu and A-Jue in the next few days. At least it’ll bring him so happiness in his final days.”

Elder Pei’s greatest concern had always been Pei Jue’s marriage.

Du Shu hesitated. “But isn’t it a bit unfair to that Shen Family girl?”

After all, an engagent was supposed to be a joyous occasion. Tying it to Elder Pei’s health might bring an air of misfortune…

“This is your Uncle Shen’s idea. It’s also so the old man won’t pass away with regrets. Xiao Wu is an understanding girl; she’s already agreed.”

For Qingwu, her decision to get engaged to Pei Jue was unwavering. As long as it was Pei Jue, the timing didn’t matter!

If it could bring Elder Pei a sliver of joy in his final days, then it was worth it.

Du Shu nodded, then quickly turned to dab away her tears.

“Alright, I really must thank Ms. Shen. The Shen Family has been so generous to ours.”

If not for the Shen Family, the Pei Family wouldn’t have had the privilege of gaining such a wonderful granddaughter-in-law!

Behind Du Shu, however, Ju Ming felt as if the sky had fallen!

She hadn’t even had the chance to et Pei Jue, and now he was suddenly getting engaged to another woman?

And that woman was none other than the temperantal Ms. Shen?

What did the Shen Family have besides money, anyway!

If Pei Jue knew how Qingwu had flaunted her privilege at Ye Yi’s store and insulted Ye Yi’s designs as soulless, he would never tolerate marrying such a woman!

Ju Ming’s heart ached with intensity.

But then she thought of sothing—several major upcoming events in the fashion world. The social stature of the Pei Family ant they would definitely be in attendance.

If she could find Master Ye Yi at one of those events and tell her everything, surely the engagent between the Shen Family and Pei Jue would fall through!

Feeling a sense of urgency, Ju Ming found an excuse to leave the hospital.

The Pei matriarch watched her retreating figure. “That girl, her family’s recent situation hasn’t been stable, has it?”

Du Shu’s husband was distantly related to Ju Ming’s family, whose business ventures had recently encountered significant turbulence—a storm of change and unrest.

In an effort to protect Ju Ming, her family had sent her to stay with Du Shu.

“She’s just a child. If you don’t like her, Mom, I’ll send her back. Things are hectic around here and I don’t have ti to watch over her.”

“No need. Let them be.”

The Pei matriarch wasn’t about to fuss over a child.

…

Outside the hospital, a Cullinan was parked along the roadside. The car door opened, and a man dressed in a sleek black suit stepped out.

Even in a business-like ensemble, Pei Jue’s tall and handso stature was undeniable, making him stand out strikingly in the crowd!

Ju Ming’s eyes lit up!

She was just about to approach when she saw Pei Jue bend down, extend his hand into the car, and help a girl in a white dress step out.

The perfectly tailored dress accentuated Qingwu’s delicate and elegant figure, her waist as slender and supple as a willow branch dipped in water, swaying gracefully in the wind.

It was none other than Qingwu!

Rembering her dispute with Qingwu at Ye Yi’s boutique last ti, Ju Ming could feel discomfort spreading through her entire body!

As her anger simred, Ju Ming’s phone rang with an unfamiliar number.

Wen Youjie’s tearful voice ca through.

“Ming, please save ! I’m stuck in a police station, I beg you, find soone to get out…”
