Presently, she was already methodically carrying out Mu Lianjueâs plans!
Things had changed, though!
Mu Yazhe was willing to marry her. This meant that she would be the Mu familyâs young mistress soon!
This also meant that she should be standing in the same line as him and facing off against his uncle.
Should she still carry out his uncleâs plans?
She was troubled by this series of events.
On another thought, since he was willing to marry her, she must stand on his side and protect him at all cost!
After all, once they were married, they would share honor and disgrace together. If he lost his status because of his uncle, she would soon follow his steps!
She did not know what the man had in mind, though. To her, he was so unfathomable.
Therefore, she was hesitating.
Over the following few days, the entire Mu family got busy preparing for the wedding.
Aaron suddenly looked for her one day.
The two met at a secluded place.
Upon seeing her, his first words were: âWanrou, leave with me! Letâs elope and go somewhere far from this troubled place!â
âAaron, donât look for me again. Letâs return to the way we used to be in the future. Iâm Mu Yazheâs fiancée and youâre his assistant!â she coldly refused.
âFiancée?!â
Suddenly, he broke out into laughter. âWanrou, what are you talking about? Are you daydreaming? What fiancée? Do you really think that he will marry you?â
She smugly answered, âWhy not? He said that he will marry me on an auspicious date and is now making arrangements.â
He was shocked.
âHow is this possible?!â
âWhy is it impossible? He has already promised grandpa; in fact, all the Mus are preparing to release news of our upcoming wedding.â
There was an undisguised smugness on her face.
He sneered. âImpossible!â
âThereâs nothing impossible. Youâre just being indignant!â
âDo you really think heâs that stupid? Wanrou, think about it; does he really intend to marry you? Leaving aside the question of your identity, while you may have fooled Mu Sheng with your pregnancy, do you think that you can fool Mu Yazhe? Can he marry a woman whoâs pregnant with another manâs child?â
Her heart skipped a beat. âWhy is it impossible? Heâll marry me because he doesnât want to go against grandpaâs ordersââ
âHah! You think too highly of him!â he retorted. âHeâs definitely no simple man! Donât lower your guard. He may have set a trap for you and is just waiting for you to jump in it! The Mu household is a tigerâs den. Has it ever crossed your mind what heâs gone through to be the man he is today at such a young age? Do you really think that he is a simple man? The fact is that heâs even more unfathomable than you think!â
She shuddered in fear at his words.
âLeave with me! Eloping with me is the best choice you have now!â
He reached out to her and opened his hand.
In her momentarily disorientation, she actually reached her hand toward him.
Seeing that she seemed to have changed her mind, he was pleased. However, in the next moment, she violently smacked his hand away.
âNo!â
