Entering the study, Mrs. Nalan turned around and asked straight to the point, "Miss Mu, how much did Ye give you to cooperate with him in this scene and cheat me?"
Muxiang paused, but she didn't expect Mrs. Nalan to see it at a glance.
Not missing the expression on her face, Mrs. Nalan smiled slightly and said, "Although Ye is not my biological child, I have seen this child since he was a child. How can I not know what he is thinking?"
Staring at Mrs. Nalan, Muxiang found that she was somewhat different from the sinister woman Nalan Ye described. At least, her frankness was worthy of appreciation.
Seeming to sense her doubts, Mrs. Nalan motioned for her to sit down, and she elegantly sat across from her, "When I married into Nalan's family, he was already six years old, old enough to remember things. His father was in poor health.
Well, facing a group of relatives who are eyeing the position of head of the Nalan family, he gradually became a little powerless. I couldn't bear to see him fall like this, so I shouldered the important responsibilities of the family for him."
Mrs. Nalan narrated quietly. From her light tone, it was not difficult to tell how deep her feelings for her husband were. "He felt sorry for me and knew that he might not be able to stay with me forever. So, he
I asked for another child, and after he left, I would let that child stay with me. But for Ye, I refused." She raised her eyes and looked at Mu Xiang with a flat gaze, "In Ye's eyes, I am vicious.
His stepmother has taken away everything from him, and I can no longer create a potential threat to him. This will distort his growth, and I think that is not what my husband wants to see."
Mu Xiang was moved after hearing this and couldn't help but ask, "Then why don't you have a good talk with him?"
Mrs. Nalan shook her head, "Ye is very opinionated. He only believes what he sees with his own eyes. Moreover, he has long decided that I am a bad woman. No matter how much I say, it will only make him think that I am acting, so I will simply
Let him continue to hate me, and if he is capable enough, he can take the Nalan family away from me!"
It was only now that Mu Xiang gradually understood the heart of a mother. She couldn't help but feel some respect and inexplicable affection for the capable woman in front of her.
"Haha," Mrs. Nalan chuckled and shook her head, looking at the woody fragrance, "it's strange that I would tell you so much. Maybe it's because you are different from the women I brought home at night. But.
, I still have to remind you that not everyone can be the wife of Ye."
Muxiang heard what she meant, smiled generously, and said frankly, "I didn't expect to get anything from him."
"Oh?" Mrs. Nalan did not completely believe her. After all, the Nalan family's family fortune was large enough to arouse a woman's desire.
Mu Xiang simply told her what happened, and then said, "I agreed to help him because I wanted to repay my kindness. I had no other intention at all."
Mrs. Nalan stared at her. As a powerful woman in the shopping mall, no pretense could escape her eyes. But from Mu Xiang's pair of dark glossy eyes, she could not see any pretense.
There is even a sense of familiarity that we have known each other for a long time.
She slowly looked away and smiled, "Miss Mu, I believe you."
"Thanks."
After thinking for a moment, Mrs. Nalan said, "Miss Mu, can I ask you a favor?"
"Please say."
Mrs. Nalan's eyes shone with shrewd light, "Continue to finish the scene."
Mu Xiang didn't understand, "Why?"
"Ye has the kind of personality that refuses to admit defeat. The more difficulties are created for him, the more he will rise to them. Moreover, his favorite thing is to go against me." She paused and smiled helplessly, "His
He is not young anymore, and it is time for him to calm down and take over the Nalan family. But the playboy image he left to the outside world has become the biggest leverage. More than half of the people on the board of directors are opposed to him taking over the company, so I
We will be busy arranging a blind date for him. However, since he has found you, we will use his plan to his advantage."
Mu Xiang quickly clarified, "Madam, our relationship is not that kind of..."
Mrs. Nalan raised her hand and looked at her with gentle eyes, "Miss Mu, don't worry, I just want you to cooperate with me in acting. During this period of time, I need to change his image, especially to be around him."
Get rid of those women! I think you won’t refuse as long as it’s for a good night.”
Mu Xiang had to admit that this woman was definitely a powerful negotiating opponent. She was sure that she would not refuse Nalan Ye because she was grateful.
Mu Xiang lowered her eyes and took a deep breath, "Okay. But, I have a condition."
"What conditions?"
"If I regain my previous memories, I can leave at any time."
Mrs. Nalan smiled and said, "Of course. Miss Mu, don't worry, in return, I will help you investigate the past."
Mu Xiang was delighted, "Really? That's great, thank you, Mrs. Nalan." Mu Xiang stood up, "If you delay for too long, he will be suspicious. Madam, I'm going out first."
"Haha, let me remind you first, that child Ye is very smart. If you want to deceive him, you won't be able to do it without some thought."
Mu Xiang looked back with determination, "I know what to do."
Nalan Ye had been waiting in the living room. When he saw her coming out, he quickly stepped forward and asked, "How is it? Did the old woman give you any trouble?"
Muxiang raised her head and smiled at him, "She doesn't like me very much. What should I do? I seem to have made her angry?"
Nalan Ye's eyes shone, "Great, I knew I was right to find you!"
Mu Xiang sat on the sofa, her brows furrowed, and she said worriedly, "But she still didn't believe it. She said, you have many women outside, and I'm just your temporary plaything. Soon, you will
Tired of it."
Upon hearing this, Nalanye smiled coldly, "She thinks she knows me very well!" He leaned down, placed his hands on both sides of Mumuxiang's cheeks, and looked at her. The sudden closeness made Muxiang feel unnatural.
Stand back, "Those things outside are not true."
After leaving these meaningless words, he stood up straight again, brushed his hair from his forehead, and his glazed eyes burst out with a fascinating color, "I want to take back the Nalan family from her hands little by little.
! Just wait and see!"
Mu Xiang's lips slowly showed a trace of relief. Sure enough, Mrs. Nalan's painstaking efforts were not in vain.
