A second chance with my billionaire husband-Chapter 1594 - 317: Standing Out at the Hongmen Banquet (Part 2)

"A bunch of idiots, you even managed to screw up something so simple. What use are you?"

Inside the villa, the man shouted angrily, kicking a man in black away in his rage.

In an instant, people knelt everywhere.

The man rubbed his temples, pointing at the woman with bandages on her head, "What did you promise me before?"

The woman lowered her head, "It was my negligence. If we fail this time, I will seek another opportunity and will not fail you again."

"Hmph, I’ll give you one last chance. You know the consequences if you fail again."

The woman replied respectfully, "Yes."

The man waved his hand, "Alright, you all can leave now."

A group of people filed out.

The room quieted down.

The man stood in front of the desk, tapping it with bent fingers, pondering for a moment, then took out his phone and made a call.

Dongfang Yi knocked and entered just as Dongfang Jian finished his call, "Father, did you need me for something?"

Dongfang Jian glanced at her and said, "The plan failed this time. I knew that person wouldn’t accomplish anything."

Dongfang Yi squinted, "It seems we’ve alerted the enemy."

Dongfang Jian snorted coldly, "They won’t escape my inescapable net."

"Father, you are wise, but we must not underestimate the enemy. Yan Nanmo is unlike Yan Nanxiao. He is very strategic, and we need to be cautious and plan our actions carefully."

"What is there to fear? The Yan Family is like a grasshopper after autumn, it won’t last much longer..." Dongfang Jian mocked.

Dongfang Yi frowned, wanting to say something but held back. Her father was overconfident, not realizing the opponent was much stronger than they imagined. The career path of Yan Nanmo was far from simple, but saying so would only displease her father, so it seemed more investigation was needed.

"Alright, enough about that. I’ve arranged to have dinner with Pei Yu tonight."

Dongfang Yi smiled and obediently replied, "Yes."

Pei Qinghan, as a son-in-law, was not highly regarded by him, but since Yi Yi liked him, he had to pave the way for his daughter. Moreover, Pei Qinghan was capable and talented, even though his personality was somewhat unlikable.

But later, thinking it over, Pei Qinghan founded the Han Yi Gang, a force not to be underestimated, and could be of great use in the future.

So, he thought of starting with Pei Yu, eventually making Pei Qinghan submit to Yi Yi.

Pei Yu was quite satisfied with Dongfang Yi, her appearance, family background, personality, and abilities were all first-class. Such a girl was a perfect match for Qinghan.

After dinner, Pei Yu was pondering when to bring Qinghan back, so they could meet. Qinghan opposed this because he didn’t understand Dongfang Yi yet. Once they got to know each other better, Qinghan would surely be moved by Dongfang Yi.

"But how can we bring Qinghan back? What if I say I’m ill, what do you think?" Pei Yu asked the butler.

The butler thought for a moment, replying, "That tactic might not work. The young master is smart and will surely guess your intention immediately. But I have a good idea that will surely bring the young master back."

Pei Yu immediately asked, "What method?"

The butler smiled and said, "Didn’t the young master recognize Miss Ji as his sister? Regardless of their relationship, one thing is certain: Miss Ji is special in the young master’s mind. If you invite Miss Ji, she’ll surely come. Then we can tell the young master, and he won’t refuse to come..."

Pei Yu’s eyes lit up, "Right, let’s do that. Quickly send an invitation to Miss Ji... just say... just say...?"

The butler immediately responded, "Say that Miss Ji is a highly skilled doctor, and we’re inviting her to treat you out of admiration."

Pei Yu slapped his thigh, "Just say that."

The butler cheerfully went off to handle it.

"Miss Ji, the late grandmother always spoke highly of you, saying how good and exceptional you are, and also praised your outstanding medical skills, like a modern-day Hua Tuo. Our elder’s health has been declining lately; despite consulting many famous traditional Chinese medicine doctors and experts, there’s been no improvement. Hence, I’ve come to you in admiration, hoping you’ll spare some time to take a look at our elder..."

The butler’s demeanor was extremely humble, even mentioning the deceased Pei Ying, making it hard to refuse.

Yun Ya did not expect the Pei Family to suddenly contact her. She didn’t believe it was simply to treat Elder Pei, could it be because of Pei Qinghan?

With thoughts racing, Yun Ya smiled and said, "I’ve always wanted to visit Elder Pei, but haven’t found the opportunity. It’s my oversight. I’ll go with you right away."
