“Let’s wait for the Lan family to find their daughter first.”

Mu Chen said indifferently, but he was scheming about something else inside. The daughter of the Lan Family had already been missing for fifteen years. In these fifteen years, the Lan Family had used countless connections and practically searched the entire empire, but they still couldn’t find the daughter that had disappeared.

Even if she was really found, Mu Chen wouldn’t be able to fulfill the engagement between the two families. He had promised Yun Jin that he would be responsible for her.

Although, Yun Jin was gentle and was very different how he imagined her.

“Don’t worry. When the Lan family finds their daughter, I will definitely abdicate for her,” Bai Su said casually. She didn’t care about being the enviable Young Madam of the Mu family. Since it was a fake marriage, there was nothing to be nostalgic about. She would pack up and leave as soon as she was found.

Mu Chen narrowed his eyes as a dangerous aura spread out from his body.

Why was she so anxious to give up her position as Young Madam Mu? Did marrying him make her so uncomfortable?

“Easy for you to say.” Mu Xing rolled her eyes. “You have to divorce my brother anyway. Besides, you have to leave Professor Cheng’s laboratory. You’re not allowed to stay in his design team.”

“Why?” Bai Su asked.

Although her tone was calm, it contained a deterrent force. “I joined Professor Cheng’s laboratory with my own capabilities through several rounds of selection.”

“Who knows? Maybe my brother got you in. I don’t care. If you don’t quit, I’ll write a letter to testify against you and make you unable to stay in the laboratory!”

“Nonsense.” Mu Chen glared at Mu Xing. It was all his fault for doting on his younger sister to the point that she was arrogant and unreasonable.

However, he knew what kind of person Professor Cheng was. Although he was eccentric, he was absolutely meticulous in academia. He was an expert in the field.

His laboratory couldn’t be entered through connections or money. The only way was to pass his own screening. One had to have high expertise and a strong ability to think creatively.

Bai Su was in her fourth year of college this year but was able to enter Professor Cheng’s laboratory. Mu Chen didn’t expect her to be a top student.

Mu Chen couldn’t help but take a few more glances at her.

“Mu Chen, we can put our work aside for now, but we can’t delay the divorce anymore. Right now, only the few of us know about it. If those nosy media outlets find out about it in the future, God knows how they will write about it.”

“That’s right. Someone like her doesn’t deserve to enter our family!” Mu Xing nodded in agreement with Rong Xiu’s words and kept fanning the flames.

Their argument gave Bai Su a headache.

“Shut up!”

An old but dignified voice sounded. Old Madam Lin Fang walked down the stairs with her walking stick. Although she was old, she still had absolute authority in this family.

“Mom…” Rong Xiu bit her lip. Although she was still dissatisfied, she was much more polite.” Why are you downstairs? Weren’t you resting upstairs? ”

“You almost chased my granddaughter-in-law away, yet you still want me to rest?” Lin Fang was so angry that her body trembled slightly. When she saw Bai Su, who wasn’t far away, her expression softened a little.

She was extremely satisfied with Bai Su. She was the daughter-in-law that she had spent a long time searching for. She was so perfect. They didn’t know how good she was!

“But the engagement between Mu Chen and the Lan family…”

“I will explain it to General Lan.” Lin Fang said word by word. There was no room for negotiation. She had already decided that Bai Su was her granddaughter-in-law, and it was useless for others to say anything.

“But…”

“But what? Let me tell you, as long as I’m alive, don’t even think about bullying Bai Su, and don’t you dare kick her out of the Mu family. Otherwise, I’ll teach you a lesson.”

She then smiled as she looked at Bai Su. “Ask Mu Chen to bring you upstairs to rest. If you’re hungry, ask the kitchen to make you something nice. You can eat anything. In the future, treat this place as your home. I can’t be happier that you can come and stay.”

Bai Su nodded.

She grew up in the orphanage and yearned for familial affection. Lin Fang was kind and amiable. She had always treated Lin Fang as her biological grandmother. She agreed to fake her marriage with Mu Chen because she hoped that Mu Chen’s grandmother would have no regrets.

Mu Chen nodded his head and brought Bai Su upstairs.

He pushed open the door of the master bedroom and invited Bai Su in. The master bedroom was very big and the decorations were extremely luxurious. The only flaw was—

There was only one bed.
