Chapter 311: Chapter 311: The Qin Family and the Bo Family will Form a Marriage Alliance

Yuran had not reacted as Qin Yunong had imagined: hysterically cursing or exhibiting other extreme emotions. Although from their days together, she did not believe Yuran would react in such a way.

However, one always needs to try first to confirm their own guesses, right?

The calm and indifferent reaction from Yuran somewhat... surprised her.

She went abroad early, continuously studied in several countries, and finally stayed in the United Arab Emirates to participate in a research project for the sake of gilding her credentials.

This time, as a representative leading students for an exchange study, choosing Diwai was entirely the result of her efforts.

Before going abroad, she had met Miss Yu once, but at that time Yuran was young, spoiled, and resentful towards the world.

She also did not seem close to the Bo Family.

Unexpectedly, her return this time brought her quite a surprise.

Rumors are untraceable.

The Yuran she faced was completely different from the Yuran others spoke of.

Yuran was somewhat angry, but not very angry, as she explained to Qi Nian, why should we be angry with others when they have nothing to do with us?

Moreover, why should she follow the script set by Qin Yunong? In her memory, her impression of this person was negligible.

"Miss Qin, before my parents and grandfather passed away, whose position did your grandfather currently hold? Furthermore, tracing back, my Yu Family’s position in the Imperial Community was higher than your Qin Family.

Perhaps, Miss Qin, you have been abroad too long and have forgotten a rather important part of history. It’s alright, you can call your grandfather and ask for the details.

You can disrespect me, but please respect the Yu Family heroes who sacrificed their lives for peace."

Yuran spoke calmly, as if stating a fact, without any negative emotion, completely focusing on the matter at hand, which made the aggressive Qin Yunong feel rather ashamed.

When she was young, her grandfather told her that respecting heroes would make her a better person.

Although she went abroad early, she never forgot what her grandfather had said.

Attempting to intimidate Yuran was indeed her initial intention, but she had never thought about slandering any heroes who had given their lives for peace. The Imperial Community is so small, with so many people.

She had heard of the glorious deeds of the Yu Family since childhood.

However, as the Yu Family members sacrificed themselves and their power was divided, many people began subconsciously forgetting this history.

Now, when Yuran straightforwardly mentioned this, Qin Yunong felt embarrassed by her own narrow attack and, taking a deep breath, she smiled, "I apologize, that was my mistake.

I apologize for my presumption, but I will not apologize for my awareness.

Yuran, do you know that the Qin Family intends to form a marriage alliance with the Bo Family?"

This was something she truly did not know and had not heard of before. Qin Yunong continued, "My tenure in the United Arab Emirates is about to end, and I will return here for my position;

directly entering the Ministry of Foreign Affairs;

If the Imperial Community did not pity and consider you, your past alone would be enough to land you in prison;

If you hadn’t been utterly irredeemable, you wouldn’t have the opportunity to stand here and speak with me.

If it wasn’t for the Bo Family considering old ties and constantly cleaning up after you, you would be in a terrible state, do you believe that?"

Yuran didn’t deny the mistakes of her past life, nor did she want to whitewash herself.

She knew everything her past self had done and wasn’t stingy in admitting it. She nodded, "I know how terrible I used to be; you don’t need to tell me.

The things I did, I won’t deny. But it’s certainly not your place to lecture me.

Qin Yunong, let’s be real, we weren’t acquainted; it’s only because of the inter-school exchange that we interacted. You biting down on me like this—

Really puts me in a difficult position and honestly, where you have your fancy job after getting your golden ticket, I really couldn’t care less.

First, I’m not chasing you; second, I’m not here to welcome you back;

Last, you’ve talked in circles so much; can you just get to the point and tell me what’s important, can’t you?

Just tell me, is it so hard that the Qin Family wants you to marry Bo Yan?"

Qin Yunong, who has always thought of Yuran as nothing but a pretty fool, a foolish dandy, had been observing her for the past three days.

Yet in just these short days, all her perceptions had been overturned, the data she had prepared for a long time vanishing instantly. However, in her mind, she was still unable to change her prejudice against Yuran.

So in their conversation, Yuran stood on equal terms, while she still positioned herself much higher.

In their dialogue, the things Yuran said sometimes left her unable to respond. All the speeches she had prepared were now useless.

Thus, letting Yuran blatantly reveal her main purpose after beating around the bush, Qin Yunong instinctively responded, "So, what’s your opinion?"

In truth, the moment she asked, Qin Yunong knew she had made a mistake, underestimating Yuran by giving her the initiative.

At the end of the day, even if the Qin Family wanted her to marry Bo Yan, it was just what the Qin Family and the Bo Family wanted. Why should she ask for the opinion of a foster daughter?

Upon hearing this, Yuran smiled charmingly as though a siren had landed ashore, instantly transforming into a Queen, "Bo Yan is a candidate that Mrs. Bo has prepared to offer me as a husband. What do you think—would I agree?"

"You..." Qin Yunong never expected her to be so brazen, shamelessly treating Bo Yan as a spare tire.

Yuran maintained her composure, but internally she was seething.

Even married people yearn; her ’Seventh Brother’ must really be a Peacock. And since when had Qin Yunong been eying him? Doesn’t he have any awareness of being a husband?

"Miss Qin, are we done here? If we’re finished, I should head back. My schedule remains unchanged tomorrow, and I will arrive at the hotel on time to welcome you all."

Qin Yunong had never felt such a sense of defeat, discomfort enveloping her whole body. If she had lost to those two highly admirable ladies from Imperial Community, she would have accepted it. Losing to Yuran was a blow to her many years of hardship.

Since her childhood, her grandfather had told her the Bo Family would be her future in-laws and that she needed to excel to qualify as the Bo Family’s daughter-in-law.

All along, that was what she had been doing.

But even when facing Yuran directly, she still felt a profound sense of defeat.

It was only when the room fell silent, leaving her alone, that after a very long while, she picked up her phone dejectedly and called her sister at home, "Sister, I’ve confronted Yuran."

"Oh, that insignificant, pretentious thing?" The disdain in the voice from the other side was palpable, as if discussing something distasteful.

Qin Yunong, "Sister, she was the second top scorer in the capital last year. Do you think such a person is just a flashy, idle person?"

"Whatever rank the Bo Family says, is that? And she dares to spread rumors about being second in the entire capital?" The other person felt the news was absolutely fabricated.

Qin Yunong didn’t know what to say for a moment and simply hung up the phone.
