Mr. Lu, don't be arrogant.

Jiang Shangru has always been arrogant.

There is no room for rebuttal in the words.

It was the same tone as ten years ago when he forced her to either get out of the Jiang family immediately or never return to the Jiang family.

Cold and heartless.

Mu Wanying's hands clenched into fists involuntarily, and her breathing became heavier. However, she had no choice but to bow her head, which she had always been unwilling to do, for her grandmother. "Save my grandmother. She needs money for surgery."

"Okay, but I have a condition."

Jiang Shangru's voice was cold, without a trace of warmth in his words.

He didn't care about Yu Qingya's accusations.

After Mu Wanying gritted her teeth and replied "say", he spoke directly.

"The Jiang and Lu families had a marriage contract years ago. It was arranged between your grandfather and the old man of the Lu family before his death. The previous betrothal was between your sister and Lu Chengfeng. But the two of them broke up, and now they are disgusted with each other. There is basically no possibility of reconciliation."

"so what?"

Mu Wanying asked the man on the other end of the phone while sobbing.

It felt like something stabbed me in the heart several times.

Jiang Shangru's emotions did not fluctuate at all.

"Now that the old lady of the Lu family is seriously ill, the Lu family wants to use this marriage between the Jiang and Lu families to bring good luck and also to take the opportunity to repair the relationship between the two families. So as long as you are willing to marry the grandson of the Lu family in place of your sister as the daughter of the Jiang family, I will give you any amount of money."

"elder sister?"

Another sister?

The eldest daughter Jiang Xia, who had been pampered by the Jiang family since childhood and could be raised in the Jiang family with full legal authority, the eldest sister Jiang Xia who could bully her at will and even scheme to drive her out of the Jiang family...

Did Jiang Xia and Lu Chengfeng break up?

Is she the replacement for the scapegoat?

Mu Wanying laughed until tears came out. Suddenly, she felt no pain and told herself clearly that her parents no longer existed in this world.

She only has an elderly and frail grandmother to take care of and an underage sister to raise.

The others have nothing to do with her anymore.

As long as it can earn her a lot of money to keep herself alive, as long as it can elevate her status, as long as it can help her save her grandmother and sister, nothing else matters.

After taking a deep breath, Mu Wanying wiped the tears from her face with a dead heart, "Okay. I promise you. But I have conditions."

"explain."

Jiang Shangru replied straightforwardly.

Mu Wanying also put it bluntly: "First: I want cash, 150,000, not a cent less, and you want it within the next two days."

"it is good."

"Second: I need you to help me find a way to get into Jiangcheng No. 1 Middle School. My sister did well in the high school entrance exam, but for some reason she wasn't accepted."

"can."

"Third: I want you to help me rent a house near No. 1 Middle School, facing the sun, so it's good for my recovery. I also want you to pay the rent for six months or a year."

"no problem."

"Fourth: I want to join the Jiang Group! I'm not picky about the position. But the salary can't be too low, and my future development can't be restricted. I need money, but not just money!"

"I can do it. First, resign from your current company, get your resignation certificate, and then come to me."

"Okay. That's settled then. As long as you can meet these four conditions, there will be no problem with the Lu family. Just let me know in advance when you need me to show up, what to say, and what to do."

Mu Wanying didn't want to say anything more.

After we agreed on this and sent the card number, I hung up the phone.

She received the money that night, not a penny less.

Three days later, my sister's education and housing arrangements were also settled.

Five days later, my grandmother's surgery officially began. Everything went smoothly. After staying in the hospital for half a month, she was taken back to a house in Xingfu Xinju Community next to No. 1 Middle School to recuperate.

The next day, Mu Wanying also fulfilled her promise.

Returned to the Jiang family, a place I hadn't been to in ten years.

As soon as I entered the house, Yu Qingya greeted me warmly.

He poured her tea, served her water, and served her food, and also pulled her aside to ask her all sorts of questions.

Mu Wanying was very uncomfortable.

The age when she needed her mother the most was long gone.

After breaking away from Yu Qingya, he stood aside awkwardly, his voice cold, "Who should I marry? When? How should I marry? What should I prepare?"

She knew that the Lu family next door had three grandsons.

The eldest grandson Lu Chengfeng.

The second grandson is Lu Yunfeng.

The third brother is Lu Linfeng.

Lu Chengfeng is the most beloved one in the Lu family. Even though Jiang Xia didn't want him anymore, it's highly likely that it won't be her turn.

Lu Yunfeng is a loner but a smart person. Although he is not liked by other people in the Lu family, he is the most loved by Uncle Lu, so his marriage should not be perfunctory.

After all the calculations, the only one left was Lu Linfeng, the annoying guy who was just like her, with no one caring and no one loving him.

Sure enough, just as she finished asking Jiang Shangru, he walked in from outside, "Lu Linfeng, the third son of the Lu family, you saw him when you were a child, and they even fought."

"understood."

Mu Wanying was neither sad nor happy.

Now that she got what she wanted, she didn't care who she married.

It's just living together.

After listening to Jiang Shangru's introduction of the process, he decisively went to the Lu family next door under Jiang Shangru's leadership.

The Lu family, young and old, are all here.

After the greetings, Jiang Shangru was responsible for the detailed conversation with Mr. Lu and Lu's father, while the bored Mu Wanying walked alone to the money tree next to her with a glass of water and counted the leaves.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Before I finished counting the leaves, a magnetic and low voice suddenly appeared.

Mu Wanying turned her head and saw a man in a white shirt walking up to her.

The man had fair skin and three-dimensional facial features. His deep eyes were topped by sword-like eyebrows, his curved nose was upturned, and his lower lip was red. He was tall and slender, with an outstanding temperament, and he exuded a familiar coldness.

"Are you Lu Yunfeng?"

Mu Wanying guessed based on her memory.

"Yes."

Lu Yunfeng nodded and stretched out his big, bony hand towards Mu Wanying.

Mu Wanying quickly returned the handshake and exchanged pleasantries with him, "Long time no see."

She didn't hate this man.

Ten years ago, when she moved here, no matter whether Jiang Xia bullied her or other children in the villa area bullied her, he always stood up to protect her.

Among the three grandsons of the Lu family, her favorite is Lu Yunfeng.

She had also fantasized about it when Jiang Shangru put forward the conditions.

But she knew very well.

Lu Yunfeng is the No. 1 in Uncle Lu's heart. Even Lu Chengfeng, the little prince of the Lu family, cannot compare to him. There is no way that his marriage will fall on me.

"you……"

When Mu Wanying was distracted, the man in front of her opened his lips slightly.

Mu Wanying raised her head and her eyes met his. The man's eyes flickered slightly, but quickly returned to normal, and he swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

"What am I?"

Mu Wanying asked.

Lu Yunfeng hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Grandpa told us about you and Lin Feng this morning. Mu Wanying, are you really willing to marry a man you don't know well?"

"Second brother asked a good question, I want to know too."

Before Mu Wanying could answer, a young man walked over.

Elusive.

There were no footsteps at all.

Like a ghostly shadow.

He leaned against a pillar with his arms folded, a playful smile on the corner of his thin lips, and stared at her and Lu Yunfeng as if he was watching a show.
