They would not have met so late and in such an unsavory manner .
She would have her proper identity as his fiancée and could stand proudly beside him right from their first meeting!
The man smiled at this .
He could not help reaching out and rubbing her silky hair .
This silly woman was probably thinking that, if she were the one who had been acknowledged by the Mu family a decade and a half ago, she would have naturally become his legitimate fiancée .
He thought otherwise, however .
In a way, if it had not been for Mu Wanrou pretending to be her, he might not have fallen in love with her .
At that time, being opposed to this woman's mother, he would have resented her .
The young him would have treated her with strong hostility .
AdvertisementMu Qingcheng had caused his father to be lost in reverie and his mother to harbor hate for all eternity .
As the woman who was truly in his heart, Mu Liancheng poured almost a lifetime's worth of love on her .
His heart, which was entirely on Mu Qingcheng, had never once thumped for another .
The infatuated and devoted Jiang Yishan initially raged out of humiliation, only for it to lead into disappointment; it was all because of that woman .
In Mu Yazhe's young mind, Mu Qingcheng was indubitably a heinous woman .
She had effortlessly destroyed his parents' marriage .
She was the culprit for his family's destruction!
Hence, when Mu Sheng paired him with the nine-year-old Mu Wanrou and told him that she was Mu Qingcheng's daughter and his sister as well as his future fiancée, the young him looked at her with disgust .
He found her to be revolting .
Still, with the Mu family's inheritance rights at stake, he did not hesitate to make use of her . Getting engaged with her was for the sole purpose of gaining a bargaining chip in the fight for control of Disheng Financial Group .
It was not until he was older that he understood everything .
What his parents had was just a marriage of convenience . It was all for the sake of winning the bout for power among the rich .
This marriage had neither romance nor love . Both parties were forced into it .
The marriage was merely nominal .
Mu Qingcheng was also not a third party .
On the contrary, she had all along been a clean woman .
His father's infatuation for her had never borne fruit .
Only then did he erase his hatred for her .
However, if the one Mu Sheng had brought home a decade and a half ago was Yun Shishi, he would probably not have developed romantic feelings for her, and she would have ended up being exploited by him .
Mu Wanrou, who had replaced her to be part of the Mu family, ironically became a pawn in his fight for leadership .
Simply put, that woman had replaced her as his sacrificial lamb .
Fate seemed to have its providence .
Their encounter was neither too early nor too late and was just right .
Sometimes, an unexpected turn of events might not actually be a mistake at all .
It was just that, in order to meet her, he seemed to have exhausted a lifetime of luck .
“Seven years ago, Mu Wanrou was diagnosed to be congenitally infertile . You probably know of this matter,” he said slowly .
Yun Shishi nodded . “Yes . I know about it . ”
He lowered his gaze . “She's actually not congenitally infertile . ”
Her eyes on him widened in shock and incredulity .
“How can that be? Didn't the Mu family bring in the country's most advanced medical center for this matter . ”
“Disheng Financial Group holds 40% of the country's medical market share . ” His lips arched . “As such, it's not really difficult for me to falsify a simple medical report . ”
She was so shocked she was rendered speechless .
