After Bai Su bought the ingredients, she returned to the Mu family. She had asked Lin Fang about her preferences beforehand and planned to make three light delicious dishes and soup.

Lin Fang wasn’t in good health, and eating light food would help with digestion.

She got busy in the kitchen. It only took her a moment to prepare the dishes and bring them over. She cooked meatball soup, steamed bass, white prawns, and stir-fried vegetables. Although the dishes were simple,

they tasted very good.

Lin Fang was extremely satisfied with her meal and she nodded her head. From time to time, she would praise Bai Su and exclaim that Mu Chen was really lucky to marry Bai Su.

Bai Su only smiled without knowing how to confess.

Lin Fang had already heard that Bai Su and Mu Chen were faking their marriage. However, feelings were fickle. Perhaps after spending a long time together, they would suddenly like each other.

Besides, Bai Su had a gorgeous appearance and a good personality. She was kind-hearted and she cooked well. She was perfect.

She knew Mu Chen too well and knew what kind of woman he liked. It would be difficult for him not to fall for Bai Su.

Lin Fang picked up a meatball for herself and couldn’t help but praise Bai Su, “Your meatball is really delicious. Not only is it chewy, but it’s also very elastic. It must have taken a lot of effort to cook it. I didn’t expect you

to have such good culinary skills.”

“You flatter me.” Bai Su was a little embarrassed by Lin Fang’s praise.

“I didn’t know how to cook before. Because I had to take care of a patient, I learned how to cook some basic dishes. These are all extremely ordinary dishes.”

Bai Su had always been carefree. She wasn’t picky about food or clothes at all. At that time, in order to take care of the fickle Gu Yan, she spent three months learning cooking. When she thought of Gu Yan, who had

been missing all this time, Bai Su felt a little dejected and dispirited.

Mu Chen glanced at Bai Su and instantly guessed that the patient she was talking about was Gu Yan.

When he thought of how much she cared for Gu Yan, Mu Chen felt uncomfortable all over again.

He glanced at Bai Su from the corner of his eyes.

Bai Su had already concealed her dejected mood and continued to chat with Lin Fang.

After the meal, when Bai Su was clearing the dishes, she saw Mu Chen walking into the kitchen.

Worried that Lin Fang would hear them, she pulled Mu Chen to the small balcony that was connected to the kitchen. She even closed the door. She once again confirmed that this enclosed space only had the two of

them.

The small balcony was so small that the two of them were almost completely pressed together.

They could even hear each other’s breathing.

“You will marry Yun Jin, right?” Bai Su took a step back and tried her best to put some distance between her and Mu Chen. However, it was a pity that it had little effect. In the eyes of others, they would definitely

misunderstand their relationship.

Before Mu Chen could reply, Bai Su muttered, “Of course you have to marry her. She’s already pregnant with your child. Besides, the Mu family and the Lan family have an agreement. It’s a perfect business alliance. It’s

the perfect marriage.”

Mu Chen’s expression darkened. Bai Su wasn’t jealous. On the contrary, her calm tone made it seem as if she was just stating a simple fact.

“So, it’s about time we reveal our fake marriage.”

At the dining table just now, she wanted to tell Lin Fang everything in detail. However, Lin Fang had a kind look on her face and she liked her very much. Bai Su struggled for a long time and couldn’t bring herself to

reveal it.

“Yes. After the cooling-off period is over, we’ll go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce.”

Mu Chen said indifferently. Not a trace of emotion could be seen in his calm eyes.

“No problem.” Bai Su even heaved a sigh of relief, but she still felt a little empty inside. She thought about it for a moment. It was probably because of Lin Fang. She hesitated before looking at Mu Chen. “There’s one

more thing I hope you can agree to.”

Mu Chen was interested.

He was surprised by Bai Su’s pleading tone and was even more curious about what she was pleading for.

Bai Su paused for a moment.

“I hope that even if we’re divorced, I can still come to the Mu family’s home to visit Grandma. Don’t worry, I’ll try my best to come when there’s no one around. I won’t bring you any trouble.”

Lin Fang was the only person she couldn’t let go of in the Mu family.

“Sure.”

Even if he told his grandmother that he and Bai Su were faking their marriage, his grandmother definitely wouldn’t bear to part with Bai Su. If Bai Su came to visit her occasionally, she would definitely be happy.

When he thought about how he could still see Bai Su even if they divorced, Mu Chen couldn’t think of a reason to refuse.

However, she begged him for such a trivial matter?

Then what was he expecting just now?.
