Chapter 9: The Lan Family’s Daughter

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Thinking of their cooperation with the Mu family, she had no choice but to give in. “Brother Mu Chen, you’ve misunderstood. I’ll apologize to you. There won’t be a next time.”

If her family’s partnership with the Mu Corporation was ruined because of her, her father would break her legs.

Bai Su glanced at Mu Chen and wondered if he was standing up for her or maintaining his reputation.

Before she could ask, a woman in her fifties walked to the center of the dance floor. Although she was old, she had maintained herself well and was especially charismatic.

“Wenyan, Lan Sheng’s wife, is the host of today’s banquet.” Seeing Bai Su looking at him in confusion, Mu Chen explained.

Bai Su had already heard about the Lan family from Rong Xiu.

It was no wonder that the woman exuded a valiant aura, unlike ordinary middle-aged women.

Wen Yan cleared her throat and glanced at everyone. “Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedules to attend the Wen family’s banquet. I have a very important announcement to make today.”

Unable to hide the joy in her eyes, she paused for a moment.

“After much difficulty, we finally found our daughter, who had been missing for fifteen years. Now, I’ll introduce her to everyone.”

Wen Yan smiled as she looked at the crowd.

Yun Jin took a deep breath and held the long skirt of her evening gown with both hands. Under everyone’s gaze, she slowly walked to Wen Yan’s side and nodded at everyone obediently and innocently.

She didn’t expect herself to have made the right bet. Bai Su was really the Lan family’s daughter. She had swapped Bai Su’s hair and nails. She had changed from an orphan with no one to a powerful young lady from the Lan family.

Yun Jin looked at everyone proudly. She didn’t expect Bai Su to be among them, nor did she expect Mu Chen to be standing beside her.

Why was she here? How did she know Mu Chen?

Yun Jin was panicking. Did they notice something?

She walked to their side with a smile on her face. Mu Chen nodded his head slightly and smiled. “I really didn’t expect you to be the daughter of the Lan family that has been lost for many years.”

“That’s right. I didn’t expect it either. It feels like a dream.” Yun Jin smiled and looked at Bai Su.

“Congratulations. It’s great that you can find your parents.” Bai Susu congratulated Yun Jin from the bottom of her heart. She and Yun Jin had grown up together in the orphanage. Although the two of them didn’t have much interaction, finding her biological parents was indeed something worth celebrating.

She just didn’t know where her parents were.

Yun Jin was stunned.

Bai Su actually congratulated her? Did that mean that she didn’t realize that she had stolen her identity?

“You guys know each other?” Mu Chen was also puzzled.

“We grew up in an orphanage and went to the same university afterward. We studied the same major. We often met in the orphanage and school.” Yun Jin smiled as she explained. Her eyes would occasionally glance at Mu Chen.

Wen Yan told her that Mu Chen and the daughter of the Lan family had an arranged marriage. Although the cooperation with the Mu family was very important, she respected Yun Jin’s intentions. She wanted her to marry Mu Chen if she liked him, and if she didn’t, she would find someone else.

Naturally, she wouldn’t look for anyone else. She wanted Mu Chen.

Mu Chen nodded his head. It had to be said that although they grew up in the same orphanage and Bai Su and Yun Jin were around the same age, their personalities were completely different.

After the banquet ended, Mu Chen brought Bai Su back.

He was in no hurry to start the car and glanced at Bai Su, who was sitting in the passenger seat.

“I have something to tell you.” Bai Su opened her mouth before Mu Chen could speak. “You and the Lan family’s daughter are engaged. I also feel that the strong marital union between the Mu and Lan families is for the best. I don’t want to create trouble for Yun Jin. Let’s get a divorce as soon as possible.”

Mu Chen glanced at Bai Su. This was what he wanted to say.

He wanted to fulfill his promise and be responsible for Yun Jin. Of course, he agreed with Bai Su wanting a divorce. However, it was a little harsh for Bai Su to say it.

It was as if she was looking forward to a divorce.

“Although you said that the fake marriage was to make Grandma happy, you were the one who offered to give me the million yuan. I really need this money. Don’t worry, at most, I’ll send you a loan agreement and I’ll return it to you.”

Bai Su enunciated every word clearly. She never liked to owe people anything, especially favors.

If it wasn’t for the sake of saving an important person, she wouldn’t even ask Mu Chen for a million.
