Chapter 869: Chapter 874: Little Yang Fan Is Very Excited

"Then I wish you good luck," Xiao Shenwei said.

Lan Chuan smiled, paused thoughtfully, and then added, "Shenwei, what do you think of my sister?"

"A top noble lady that’s hard to come by in a decade," Xiao Shenwei replied.

"I’m not asking you to appraise her; I’m asking about your feelings toward her." Lan Chuan paused, then continued, "Shenwei, we’ve known each other for many years, so I’ll cut to the chase. Our Lan family needs to form an alliance with you through marriage, and you also need to form an alliance with our Lan family."

"Why is that?" Xiao Shenwei asked indifferently.

"Although you have a distinguished reputation and are recognized as the next Family Head of the Xiao family, the situation that was once overwhelmingly in your favor has started to reverse since Su Xiaoxi returned to the Xiao family. Including Li Qing, the Xiao family’s guardian god of war, there are still many supporters of the main family within the Xiao family. Your position as Family Head is not as secure as it seems," Lan Chuan explained calmly.

Xiao Shenwei glanced at Lan Chuan: "You seem to know a lot about our Xiao family."

Lan Chuan smiled: "I’ll take that as a compliment."

He paused and then said, "Shenwei, our Lan family also needs your support. Our staunch enemy, the Gu family, has connected with the Wright family recently and started to push us out of Yanjing. We need a strong external ally to stand against the Gu family."

"The Wright family? The top-tier Wright family from the United States?" Xiao Shenwei asked.

Lan Chuan nodded: "Yes. Old Wright died a few months ago on your Xiao family’s Crow Feather Island, but this hasn’t threatened the Wright family. A few years ago, Old Wright’s eldest son, Chris Wright, had already taken over the family’s power. Unlike Old Wright’s prudent management, Chris rose swiftly by relying on illegal activities such as arms smuggling and drug trafficking. The Wright family, which wasn’t even in the top twenty of all-American families, has vaulted to the top three among Northern America’s noble families in just a few years. Although the ranking doesn’t include hidden families, the power of the Wright family is not to be underestimated."

Remembering something, Lan Chuan added, "Oh, by the way, the Wright family also sent someone to my wedding."

"Hm? Who?" Xiao Shenwei inquired.

"Chris’s third brother, Carmen Wright. He’s not highly valued in the Wright family and often gets assigned to attend some insignificant gatherings," Lan Chuan said.

Xiao Shenwei pondered briefly: "Let me think about it."

Lan Chuan smiled: "OK."

He checked his watch and then said, "Feel free to look around; I’m going to see Catherine."

After taking a few steps, Lan Chuan added, "Coco went to accompany my mother, she should be at the entrance on the west side of the church."

Xiao Shenwei nodded: "I know."

----

At this moment, at the entrance on the west side of the church.

"What’s going on here? We’ve been waiting for so long, and nobody has come to greet us?" Yang Fei complained.

"Maybe it’s deliberate? They probably want us to stay outside in the cold for a while longer," Yang Ya said with a smile.

"Humph!" Yang Fei snorted, "That old witch, such a dark heart!"

Just then,

"Oh my, isn’t that my old classmate Bai Ninglu? You haven’t lost your charm," a middle-aged woman’s voice rang out.

Two women were approaching.

One was in her forties or fifties, wearing a mink coat, touched up with rouge and powder, looking charming as a mature lady of wealth.

The other was in her twenties, with an ethereal air, seeming like a sprite out of this world.

It was none other than Lan Ke.

Bai Ninglu smiled: "Mo Chunni, you’re still as graceful as ever."

The middle-aged lady was discontent: "I’m now called Mo Shangchunshu. Sounds grand, doesn’t it?"

Pfft!

The young Feifei couldn’t contain herself and laughed out loud.

Mo Chunni was displeased.

"Who is this?"

"Sorry about that, she’s my youngest daughter, a country bumpkin who hasn’t seen much of the world. Don’t mind her, old classmate. The name Mo Shangchunshu is wonderful, indeed, on a par with Spring White Snow," Bai Ninglu said.

Finally, Mo Chunni felt somewhat consoled.

She glanced at Zhang Miao and Yang Ya, then said, "An old classmate gave birth to three daughters, ah, what great fortune, I really want to have more daughters myself. Now I have one son and one daughter, and I honestly feel unsatisfied."

Bai Ninglu’s lips twitched slightly, this woman was blatantly showing off; every woman in Huaxia knew that having one son and one daughter was the ideal.

"Uh, no." At this moment, the previously quiet Zhang Miao faintly smiled and said, "I am her daughter-in-law."

"Hmm? You have a son?" Mo Chunni asked Bai Ninglu.

Bai Ninglu nodded, "He just left."

Mo Chunni secretly sized up Zhang Miao, feeling more and more stifled in her heart the more she looked.

Initially, she was quite satisfied with her future daughter-in-law, but how come she felt she fell a bit short compared to Bai Ninglu’s daughter-in-law?

Mo Chunni had invited Bai Ninglu over this time also to show off her son, daughter, and daughter-in-law.

At this moment, the daughter-in-law aspect obviously seemed a step behind.

Her hopes now rested on her daughter.

"Cough cough, this is my daughter Lan Ke, no young talent in Yanjing doesn’t know our Coco," boasted Mo Chunni with pride.

Bai Ninglu nodded, "Indeed beautiful, like a fairy that is untouched by the mortal world."

"Isn’t that so, isn’t that so." Mo Chunni was quite proud.

At that moment, a series of footsteps approached.

"Coco, long time no see. It’s regrettable that the bullet didn’t hit me several months ago," a voice tainted with sarcasm rang out.

It was actually Gu Ran.

Mo Chunni’s brows slightly knitted, "Again with that brat from the Gu family, ah, she’s talking nonsense; our Coco is a good child, how could she kill someone?"

"Tsk tsk, Coco is a good child, are you joking, Auntie Chunni?" Gu Ran said with a cold laugh.

Mo Chunni snapped, "Don’t call me Chunni; you ill-mannered girl!"

"Angry out of embarrassment?" Gu Ran was not afraid; she was about to continue her mocking when she suddenly caught sight of Bai Ninglu and others, which startled her.

She scampered over, "Auntie, what are you doing here?"

Eh?

Mo Chunni was stunned.

What was going on?

Who was Gu Ran? She was the young miss of the Gu family of Yanjing, a renowned and wealthy clan. She was spoiled and wilful since childhood, submissive to no one, so why was she being so humble to Bai Ninglu?

Among the crowd, only Zhang Miao knew why.

Gu Ran was now an official in ’Love and World Peace,’ subordinate to Yang Gang, so how could she not be humble in the presence of her boss’s mother and future madam?

Mo Chunni was feeling dejected; what was this all about!

"Come on, let’s go see the new bride," said Mo Chunni. Not wanting to entangle with the unruly miss Gu Ran, she took Bai Ninglu by the arm and headed toward the church without further ado.

"I’ll accompany mom; you two stay with Gu Ran," said Zhang Miao.

Yang Fei and Yang Ya both nodded their heads.

"I’ll stay too." Lan Ke’s mood had been calm from the beginning to the end.

Following that, Bai Ninglu and Zhang Miao were led by Mo Chunni to the dressing room.

Catherine was doing her hair up, Yang Gang was no longer there.

Seeing Catherine, Zhang Miao obviously froze for a moment; she touched her stomach, surprised.

"This guy seemed a bit excited to see Catherine; why?"
