Quick Transmigration: Host, Please Be a Mute Beauty

The family returned to the Jiang family home.

Jiang Ting had already returned to the company for work and instructed that she would not be coming back tonight.

As soon as the other three entered the living room, they saw He Pianran sitting on the sofa leisurely eating fruit, acting as if she were in her own home.

Zhang Yongmei had just taken a box of ice cream out of the refrigerator and was about to hand it to He Pianran when she noticed the three people standing in the living room. Her expression suddenly changed, and she quickly explained, "Madam, Pianran came to see you and Miss, but you haven't returned yet, so I asked her to wait for you here."

He Pianran also stood up. She had already learned from Lu Jinghe that the Jiang family knew about her relationship with Lu Jinghe. She was afraid that Jiang Qiao would kick her out, and even more afraid that Liang Wan would no longer want to recognize her as her goddaughter. She came here today to play the victim.

He Pianran grabbed Jiang Qiao's arm and cried loudly, "Qiao Qiao, I'm sorry, I betrayed you and got together with Brother Jinghe. I know I deserve to die, but I really know I was wrong. Can you forgive me?"

Jiang Qiao hadn't originally intended to care about this matter, since she still wanted to cause trouble at He Pianran's birthday party, so her birthday party absolutely couldn't be canceled.

“He Pianran, Lu Jinghe is such trash that he doesn’t deserve me. I don’t care who he’s with. You don’t need to worry that I’ll do anything to you because of this.”

He Pianran clenched her fists. Was she implying that she was trash too? He Pianran hated her arrogant attitude the most, but now was not the time to think about such things.

"Thank you, Jojo."

Then, he spoke up cautiously, "Aunt Liang, Qiao Qiao, let's take this opportunity to discuss the matter of recognizing a godmother at my birthday banquet in a couple of days, and also to go over the procedures."

When Zhang Yongmei heard the word "godmother," her expression stiffened. However, the thought that her daughter would become a rich man's daughter and be able to get married, becoming a wealthy lady and no longer having to be a lowly servant, made her eyes flash with pride.

Jiang Qiao smiled and said, "Okay!"

He Pianran walked straight up to Liang Wan, took her arm very intimately, and said with a smile, "Aunt Liang, I will be your goddaughter in two days. I will treat you as well as Qiao Qiao did." Then she took her place.

Liang Wan felt nauseous. Jiang Qiao must have had his reasons for forgiving her earlier, so she didn't make a scene today.

Liang Wan calmly withdrew her arm and said coldly, "You can ask the housekeeper about the procedures. I'm tired, I'm going to rest first." After saying that, she went upstairs.

She didn't want to stay there any longer; she was afraid she wouldn't be able to resist killing the murderer.

He Pianran looked at her hands, which seemed to have nowhere to go, and felt a little embarrassed. She smiled and said, "Okay."

Jiang Yanchuan gave her a cold look, said "peacock" and turned to leave.

He Pianran's face turned ugly.

Jiang Qiao added fuel to the fire: "He wasn't talking about you, don't take it to heart, but your outfit today is indeed a bit... well, you know."

He Pianran was ashamed and indignant. Her eyes glanced at the box Jiang Qiao was holding: "Qiao Qiao, what is that in your hand?"

Jiang Qiao's eyes lit up, and she pulled He Pianran's hand to sit down on the sofa, her voice tinged with a smile: "Oh, you mean this! This is a gift my grandma gave me today, saying it's part of her dowry. I haven't opened it yet, but since you're here, let's take a look together."

Jiang Qiao: I'm so envious of you.

He Pianran's eyes were full of greed: "Okay, open it and take a look. I've never seen what a dowry looked like in those days!"

Jiang Qiao placed the box on the table and slowly opened it. Inside was a red agate headdress and several gold hairpins.

Although it has been passed down through generations, the style is not old-fashioned. With the passage of time, it has gained a retro feel.

He Pianran couldn't resist reaching out to take it, but Jiang Qiao slammed the box shut, almost trapping her hand.

"Jiang Qiao, what are you doing?"

Jiang Qiao pretended to be unintentional and blinked her eyes: "I'm not doing anything. I'm just afraid you'll get it dirty. My grandma told me to store it properly. I'm not going to waste any more time with you. I'm going upstairs now."

He Pianran was so angry that she wanted to throw a tantrum. She picked up the water glass on the table and was about to smash it, but then she remembered that this was not her home and slowly put it down.

Jiang Qiao, wait until I become the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, I'll make you pay!

Zhang Yongmei obtained the Jiang family's confidential documents last night, and she came to pick them up today. The Lu family's funds are about to collapse, and Brother Jinghe is still fighting against those old guys in the Lu family. These secrets can help the Lu family rise rapidly. When the Jiang family declines, she can marry into the Lu family and see who dares to look down on her.

Zhang Yongmei secretly slipped the document to He Pianran, who then delivered it to Lu Jinghe.

"Pianran, will this cause any problems? My eyelids have been twitching all day, and I have a feeling that something big is going to happen."

He Pianran looked down on her mother's timid appearance, and then thought of Liang Wan, feeling that someone like her was more worthy of being her mother, so her tone became somewhat unpleasant.

"Mom, what are you afraid of? You'll never amount to anything if you're so timid. I'm leaving now."

Seeing her daughter like this, Zhang Yongmei felt a pang of sadness.

-

Early the next morning.

Lu Jinghe is currently at Lu's main company.

He sat in the main seat looking down at these old hands, thinking, "What a bunch of damned old fogies."

Lu Jinghe's second uncle, Lu Cheng, looked at Lu Jinghe and slowly spoke, his eyes full of calculation.

“Jinghe, your father is no longer here. I’ve watched you grow up. You’re still young. Why don’t you sell your shares to me? I can save our huge Lu family business.”

Lu Cheng had long coveted the chairman's position, but because Lu Changhai had the Jiang family as a powerful backer, he dared not make a move.

Not long ago, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family broke off her engagement with Lu Jinghe, and Lu Changhai also died. Now he can finally make his move. Taking advantage of the Jiang family's current suppression of the Lu family, he can force Lu Jinghe to take over the shares.

People around kept echoing him. They had been with the Lu family for so many years and had watched the Lu family rise to prominence with the support of the Jiang family. Now, the Lu family was also full of ambition, and they were unwilling to let a child who had just come of age ride on their heads.

“That’s right, Jinghe. I think only President Lu can save our company from its current situation. You’re still young and can’t hold on right now.”

"I agree."

"I agree."

……

Looking at their faces, Lu Jinghe felt that their behavior was disgusting. However, he was not worried at the moment. He had obtained the Jiang family's confidential documents and could now cooperate with the Cheng family based on these documents.

The Cheng family is the Jiang family's biggest competitor right now. Lu Jinghe has already sent part of the documents to Cheng She, the head of the Cheng family, and he believes that Cheng She will definitely be tempted to cooperate with him.

He was right. Just as Lu Cheng was about to say something more, a junior assistant came in, walked to Lu Jinghe's side, and spoke with surprise.

"President Lu, our company is saved. People from the Cheng Group came and said they would invest in us and start a cooperation."

The conference room fell silent, and everyone stared at Lu Jinghe in disbelief.
