Seeing Mu Haiyun still sitting gracefully and elegantly on the sofa, with a hint of confidence between her brows and a slight smile on her lips, couldn’t help but smile along.
In the blink of an eye, Old Madam Mu and Shen Xin had started thinking about prying away what’s hers.
Do they not know that, according to that marriage contract, the one who is engaged to Bai Chenyao is Mu Tiantian, not Mu Haiyun?
Or perhaps, even if they know, they don’t want her to marry Bai Chenyao, but want Mu Haiyun to take her place?
Mu Tiantian’s anger instantly rose.
Whatever happens between her and Bai Chenyao is between her and Bai Chenyao!
But as a grandmother and stepmother, to so openly want to snatch away the man who should belong to her, that’s just outrageous!
Mu Tiantian initially intended to slip away and go upstairs to rest, but suddenly changed her mind.
Since Old Madam Mu and Shen Xin were so eager for Mu Haiyun to marry Bai Chenyao, even if she hadn’t figured things out with Bai Chenyao yet, she wouldn’t let them have their way.
"It’s normal for sister and A Yao to have business dealings, after all, one is the President of the Bai Group, the other is the tentative heir of Kangyun Group. Sister, wouldn’t you agree?"
Seeing Mu Tiantian return, a hint of surprise flashed in Mu Haiyun’s eyes.
After all, earlier from Mu Tiantian’s face, she saw soone eager to leave quickly.
Clearly, she could have gone upstairs to rest, why did she co back?
Could it be because grandma and mom intended to match her with Bai Chenyao?
Thinking about what Mu Tiantian ntioned during their previous conversation, now it seems it might not be the case.
If Mu Tiantian was lying back then, then...
A hint of sarcasm flashed deep in Mu Haiyun’s heart. Whatever Mu Haiyun wants, she has never failed to obtain.
"Tiantian, you’re back!"
Mu Haiyun greeted Mu Tiantian with a smile, cleverly avoiding Mu Tiantian’s previous words.
Mu Tiantian didn’t care, just sweetly nodded with a smile, then returned to her seat to continue watching, to see how shaless Old Madam Mu and Shen Xin could be.
At the sa ti, she was silently waiting for her brother Mu Haiyang to return.
Originally, her eyes were constantly on Bai Chenyao, but since returning from the restroom, Mu Tiantian hadn’t looked at Bai Chenyao even once.
The Mu Family noticed that since Bai Chenyao said sothing to grandpa after entering, he hadn’t spoken again; it was always them talking.
More precisely, Old Madam Mu kept praising the eldest granddaughter, while Shen Xin occasionally nodded in agreent, as if Bai Chenyao’s visit was for Mu Haiyun.
Mu Qinghan’s face had already turned unpleasant when his old wife started enthusiastically praising the eldest granddaughter.
After the daughter-in-law followed suit, his face beca even more grim.
Just as he was about to speak, Mu Yi beside him spoke first.
"As Tiantian said, Haiyun and Chen Yao both manage companies, so it’s natural for them to have work interactions. But since Haiyun doesn’t like discussing work at ho, and Chen Yao is a guest today, isn’t it unreasonable to only talk about work?"
Mu Haiyun’s smile paused slightly.
But she quickly returned to normal and nodded with a smile.
"Dad is right!"
Mu Yi’s expression finally improved a bit.
anwhile, Old Madam Mu’s face instantly fell.
If not for Bai Chenyao’s presence, she might have exploded imdiately.
