Forced marriage by a substitute bride? The spoiled son of a prominent Beijing socialite! His whole f

"Mr. Lu, with your words, I certainly cannot let you down. Rest assured, I will do what I say!"

Bo Yuanzhou's voice on the other end of the phone carried a hint of excitement.

He knew that Lu Yanzhe couldn't overcome the greed in his heart.

Both the Bo and Lu families are long-established wealthy families with profound heritage and comparable strength.

Lu Yanzhe also has his own pride.

So when Bo Yuanzhou discovered that he had feelings for He Yan, he knew how to exploit this weakness.

He just felt that young people nowadays were too stupid, so easily swayed by love.

How can one achieve great things with such an attitude?

But it is precisely because of this that he has the opportunity to turn the tide.

“Bo Siheng is currently focusing on that piece of land in the west of the city, and there are so many ways we can make a fuss about it.”

"Second Master Bo, the business world is like a battlefield. I don't care about the process, I only care about the result."

Lu Yanzhe's voice carried the air of someone in a superior position.

He knew Bo Yuanzhou had his own thoughts, but he didn't care.

As long as he doesn't affect me, it would be best to use him to deal with Bo Siheng.

"I hope we can all be satisfied and happy."

"That's natural!"

Bo Yuanzhou hung up the phone, and the smile on his face vanished completely.

The look in his eyes turned ruthless and resolute.

“Lu Yanzhe, I was originally thinking of sacrificing my daughter to get a mutually beneficial cooperation with you, but I didn’t expect that what you wanted was He Yan. Isn’t that great? That woman is indeed capable.”

Thinking about the trouble he had suffered at He Yan's hands before, Bo Yuanzhou felt even more resentful.

Only by killing her can we truly strike a blow against Bo Siheng.

Of course, she was a good pawn before all this.

It can both upset Bo Siheng and keep Lu Yanzhe under its control.

"Xiao Guo, how's the stuff I asked you to prepare coming along?"

Bo Yuanzhou devised a plan to kill two birds with one stone: to tamper with the land in the west of the city.

He can conveniently interfere in this matter.

Assistant Xiao Guo replied respectfully with his head bowed.

"Second Master, some deals have been reached, while others are still under negotiation."

"Then hurry up, we must get there before Bo Siheng."

Bo Yuanzhou's eyes darkened; he was determined to win the land development rights and challenge Bo Siheng.

He had endured this for over a decade and could no longer tolerate it.

the other side.

Lu Yanzhe returned to the Lu family villa, his brows furrowed with a persistent worry.

He knew that these two tests had already made He Yan begin to feel disgusted.

But he just wasn't willing to do it.

The Lu family lost to the Bo family back then and was forced to relocate to Haicheng to develop their business, which has become a mark of shame.

That's why he returned without hesitation when he knew he had a chance to defeat Bo Siheng.

The Lu family should have a place in Beijing.

"He Yan, I will let you know that I am more suitable for you than Bo Siheng."

Lu Yanzhe's eyes were filled with determination.

For He Yan's sake, he was willing to risk everything.

Even though he knew Bo Yuanzhou was a wolf in sheep's clothing, he couldn't miss this opportunity to take down the Bo family.

"Xiaoze, tell Grandma, have you decided to take action?"

Madam Lu could see what her grandson was thinking.

She sighed, knowing that some things couldn't be stopped at this point.

She was also a sacrifice for the Lu family.

“Grandma, it’s time to settle our grudges with the Bo family. After being suppressed for so many years, this is the only chance for our Lu family to return to Beijing and stand at the top.”

Lu Yanzhe did not deny that he was also despicable at heart, but he had no choice.

Who says you can’t have your cake and eat it too?

He insists on having both!

This is also to fulfill the persistence in my heart.

Two days later.

Su Wan took He Yan and He Yiyi to the department store counter to pick up their custom-made dresses.

"Xiaoyan, we didn't know you were pregnant when we ordered the dress, and we didn't know if the size would be right. But it's okay, we can try it on first, and if it doesn't fit, we can still make alterations."

Looking at her two daughters, one on each side, she felt very happy.

This harmonious and joyful atmosphere is exactly what she wants.

Su Wan is actually very thoughtful and has a very persistent attitude towards relationships.

She was bound by her maternal family for the first half of her life, and after getting married, she was careful in the He family.

Therefore, he developed an emotional fastidiousness.

Now that the rift between her and He Yan has been cleared up, she has become unusually relaxed.

"My mother hopes that my daughter will be at her most beautiful even during her pregnancy."

"Hmm, I should be able to wear it. My figure hasn't changed much."

He Yan was also a little surprised. It had been almost four months. Normally, since she was carrying twins, her pregnancy should have been more noticeable than that of a single pregnancy. But apart from her slightly protruding belly, there was no other sign of pregnancy.

Medically speaking, her condition is likely placenta posterior.

Moreover, the first thing she does every morning is to take her pulse and feel the changes in her two children's growth.

Listening to the children's heartbeats, she also felt happy.

"Mom, Grandpa and the others would have been very happy when my sister married into the Bo family. But now that my sister and Grandpa Bo are divorced, I don't know if it will affect Uncle's attitude."

He Yiyi followed beside them, feeling jealous as she watched the mother and daughter's affectionate interaction.

Once upon a time, this warmth belonged only to her.

She was also pampered and cared for by her mother from a young age, enjoying all her love.

Now they all belong to He Yan.

She was unwilling to accept this, so she wanted to point out the things her mother cared about to her face and make her feel bad.

"You know that my aunt and uncle have always been very bothered by this."

Sure enough, Su Wan's expression immediately changed.

As if thinking of her siblings' tempers and difficult behavior, she looked somewhat embarrassed.

“Yiyi, Mom knows what you’re going to say, but… it’s not Xiaoyan’s fault that she divorced Mr. Bo. They wouldn’t hold a grudge against a junior.”

Su Wan felt sorry for He Yan, and then thought about her own situation, which ruined her good mood.

But she still turned to comfort He Yan.

"Xiaoyan, don't pay too much attention to what your uncle and the others say. Just pretend you didn't hear it."

She couldn't escape the shadow cast by her father, but she didn't want her daughter to suffer.

She can suffer these things on her own.

As the least favored child in her family, even after marriage to the He family, a wealthy and powerful family in Beijing, she still couldn't escape the criticism and contempt of her own family.

She lived such a repressive life for more than forty years.

"It's alright, I think they're reasonable, they wouldn't lose face at a birthday banquet."

He Yan held Su Wan's hand and comforted her, then glanced at He Yiyi.

She really goes all out to cause trouble.

I had only heard that the Su family was difficult to get along with, but now it seems they are just arrogant and self-righteous.

They pride themselves on being from a scholarly family and look down on the He family, who are obsessed with money.

She had heard He Zhengyuan say that in order to prevent the Su family from having any grounds for complaint, the He family would send a lot of gifts to the Su family every year to give them face. It seemed that this had actually raised a troublemaker.

A man who eats someone's food will be soft-hearted, and a man who takes someone's gift will be grateful.

The Su family, however, turned a small favor into a great enmity.

"I will also perform well then, so they won't have a chance to criticize you."

He Yan decided to give face to the Su family for Su Wan's sake.

If they insist on causing trouble, she wouldn't mind teaching them a lesson in manners.

Her principle in life is to first be courteous and then resort to force.

I hope the other party can also respect themselves.
