The old master of the Pei family, Pei Yuheng's father, and Yu Yang's grandfather. Described as a gaunt, skeletal figure with a strangely deep and resonant voice. He is authoritarian and controls the family. He values Pei Yuheng greatly and does not want him tainted. He attempted to arrange Yu Yang's marriage and also discussed Pei Yuheng's marriage to someone from the Lu family. His gaze on Yu Yang made her feel uncomfortable, like looking at goods on a shelf.
