Bai Wanrou had just spotted a few friends and was about to go over and say hello.
As soon as Bai Wanrou's friends saw her, they expressed their concern. They asked her about what exactly was happening between Su Yan and Bai Xue.
This left her at a loss for words.
"I told you long ago, with your background, it's impossible for you to enter through the doors of the Su Family!" The sarcasm in those words made Bai Wanrou bite her lip.
Su Yan, the number one rated diamond god of Jin City, has been taken by Bai Wanrou, the daughter of a mistress. This caused outrage among the daughters of well-known nobles in Jin City. Su Dongkun's announcement of the marriage between Bai Xue and Su Yan had made these ladies feel elated recently. Although these ladies still didn't have this godlike man to themselves, at least he was not with that illegitimate daughter!
Moreover, everyone knew that Su Yan absolutely despised Bai Xue. Even if their marriage was successful, it would not last forever. With that in mind, they saw a chance to substitute themselves!
"What do you mean, impossible? Haven't you seen Su Yan bringing Rou Rou to the banquet? This shows that it's Rou Rou who he loves!"
The daughters of nobles in Jin City were divided into two factions: legitimate daughters born of the main wife, and those born from a mistress.
Since ancient times, those born of the main wife and those born of the mistress have been antagonistic.
All of Bai Wanrou's friends were daughters of a mistress who had been legitimated, just like her. They had the same background and naturally clustered together.
Even though they had journeyed from being illegitimate daughters to being glamorous young ladies, they were still looked down upon by the legitimate daughters. So the legitimate daughters were unhappy that Su Yan was taken by Bai Wanrou. Still, these daughters from non-traditional backgrounds were thrilled—they felt that Bai Wanrou had brought them honor.
At this crucial moment, they naturally supported Bai Wanrou. They wouldn't let their glory be stolen by the legitimate daughters who believed they were superior and looked down on them.
"Love?" The woman who was speaking arched her eyebrows with a mocking tone.
"Yes! It's love!" Bai Wanrou's friends all held firm to their faith in invincible true love.
The woman didn't say more. She just looked at Bai Wanrou and her friends with an inscrutable and intimidating smile...
By the time Su Yan found his old classmate who was now the CEO of R Group, Bai Xue had already finished their business discussion and was about to sign the contracts.
Seeing Su Yan coming over, she gave a slight smile and left.
Su Yan's anger surged. He thought he was not the hot-tempered type, but Bai Xue was always able to make him lose his cool.
The two of them were like water and fire, sworn enemies. Why did she keep flashing a smile at him?
Su Yan discussed the agency rights with Wang Yun, the CEO of the R Group.
"I've already given the agency rights to your fiancée!" Wang Yun had heard about Su Yan's engagement to Bai Xue. He had been interested in the Bai Clan for a while. And on the assumption that the Bai Clan and the Su Family would merge after Su Yan's marriage, he saw the Bai Clan as the best agency for R Group's domestic expansion. Thus, he quickly settled the negotiations with Bai Xue.
Su Yan's mouth twitched at the corner, acknowledging Bai Xue was somewhat capable as she had sorted things out so quickly.
"Hasn't she signed it yet?" As long as she hadn't, he thought he could still win.
"It will be signed tomorrow."
"No need. Trust me, the Su Family is a better fit than the Bai Clan!" Su Yan confidently insisted.
Looking perplexed, Wang Yun asked, "Aren't you two getting married?"
What difference would it make whether it's the Bai Clan or the Su Family?
In a calm voice, Su Yan said, "The one I'm going to marry is not her."
