FMLRWS Chapter 690

Everyone was shocked.

Luo Xi was neither a girlfriend nor a mistress, she was… his wife!

When the company employees learned this news, they erupted in chaos, especially those who had secretly called Luo Xi a mistress. It was like a bolt from the blue.

Everyone was now looking at her cautiously.

Their hearts were in a mess.

Oh my god, they were actually colleagues with the president’s wife! Not only were they colleagues, but they had also gone out to eat and had milk tea together!

When they were unaware of her identity, they didn’t think anything of it.

But why did the president’s wife mingle so freely? Why didn’t she act more like she was above them?

Had she truly hidden such a powerful identity from them all along?

There were previously coworkers who thought she was a mistress breaking up someone else’s family and had made things difficult for her.

Now, their hearts turned cold.

Upon hearing this, Luo Xi took out her phone and opened her Weibo account. Since she usually received a lot of messages, she seldom paid attention to Weibo, but now she froze, especially upon seeing Leng Minxing’s Weibo post tagging her. It contained an image of two small red booklets.

He directly revealed it?

Wow, how bold!

No wonder everyone at the company was looking at her strangely today.

After this incident blew up, Luo Xi could no longer work normally.

The manager didn’t dare to assign her any tasks, and whenever employees encountered her, they had to lower their heads and bend slightly to greet her as “Madam.”

This made Luo Xi feel extremely embarrassed, so with only a week left before school started, she decided to stop going to the company.

Meanwhile, something big happened in the Leng family.

The Feng family had confirmed their marriage alliance with the Mu family. Even before they reached out for the Mu family’s help, the Mu family sent an email expressing interest in a marriage alliance with the Leng family.

The Leng family only had two young ladies: Leng Me’er and Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan had already gone abroad. Given what happened before, it was impossible for her to engage in a marriage alliance with the Mu family. It was too dramatic to have an ex-fiancé become a brother-in-law.

Thus, Leng Me’er was the only choice for the Leng family.

In prominent families, the concept of marriage alliances is instilled from a young age and everyone has grown used to it. Moreover, since the other party were nobles, cooperating with them would be greatly beneficial to the Leng family, so no one saw it as a bad thing. Leng Me’er’s family situation had always been poor. Having the Mu family as a backing would help her hold her head high in front of the eldest son’s family.

But Leng Me’er refused.

She considered herself a modern woman with her own ideas and wanted to find someone she liked to date. She was unwilling to accept a marriage with a stranger.

When Luo Xi heard this, her lips twitched. She remembered how this girl had often asked about Mu Han before and acted shy after being scolded by him. She thought Leng Me’er might have some feelings for him.

The second madam doted on her daughter and didn’t want to force her into a situation just to boost her own power.

Thus, this matter was set aside.

It was a secret. Everyone in the Leng family who knew could not spread it, as any leak could pose a serious threat to Mu Han.

“You know, that Feng Lingye, what a waste of his good looks! He’s such a womanizer. He just broke off his engagement with my cousin and is already with another woman. Books can’t be judged by their covers. Only my eldest brother doesn’t care for these arranged marriages and boldly stayed with you, sister-in-law. I’m so envious. I want a boyfriend as impressive as my brother.”

Leng Me’er said with disdain upon hearing the news about the Feng family getting engaged again.

“If your eldest brother hadn’t had that accident, he might have also entered into a marriage alliance with the Bai family,” Luo Xi shrugged.

“Exactly, how come your luck is so good?” Leng Me’er looked at her with jealousy.

Luo Xi laughed. “Maybe it’s because a fortune teller told me I was destined for great wealth and honor when I was little.”

“Tch.” Leng Me’er didn’t believe in that and pouted, feeling a bit down. “Honestly, I want to help my family too, but look at Feng Lingye. It’s clear that the men tied to marriage alliances aren’t good people. I’m still so young and have never dated anyone. I don’t want to be forced into marrying someone else. I truly feel like a bad daughter.”

Luo Xi hadn’t expected her to have such a sentimental side and couldn’t help but ask, “What kind of boy do you like?”

“I like someone like my eldest brother, someone who seems to not care about anyone else but is incredibly devoted to you,” she replied enviously.

Luo Xi’s face darkened. “Incest is wrong.”

“What nonsense are you spouting? I meant his type, not that I like him!” Leng Me’er argued, her face flushed.

“Then I think Mu Han is good. He also doesn’t care about anyone but just hasn’t found the girl he wants to dote on yet. Why do you refuse the marriage alliance?” Luo Xi asked in confusion.

“I’ve never met him … wait, who are you talking about?” Leng Me’er stared at her wide-eyed.

“Mu Han? You don’t know?” Luo Xi was a bit taken aback.

Leng Me’er suddenly sat up straight. “You mean the one I was supposed to have a marriage alliance with… Mu Han? The one who left our class?”

Luo Xi nodded. “You didn’t know?”

“I… I didn’t know. And he’s abroad. How could I possibly think of him? And my parents only said it was a son of the Mu family. With so many Mu families in the world, how would I know who it was?” Leng Me’er said in a daze.

“If it’s him, then you wouldn’t refuse the marriage, right?” Luo Xi asked with a half-smile.

“Of… of course, I wouldn’t!” Leng Me’er paused for a moment, then blushed.

Luo Xi wore a knowing expression, indicating she understood without needing an explanation.

Leng Me’er was conflicted. “Actually, if it’s him, it wouldn’t be that hard to accept. It’s just that I already turned down the offer…”

From her face, Luo Xi could sense deep regret.

She secretly chuckled. “Wait, let me ask your eldest brother if there’s still room for this matter. But if you really like him, I would hope you could help him.”

“Help him? What do you mean?” Leng Me’er was confused.

Luo Xi thought for a moment and then shared the details about Mu Han’s family situation with her.

After hearing this, Leng Me’er’s expression changed. “Why is his sister so greedy? I’ve never seen a sister fight her brother for inheritance. It’s usually men who inherit.”

“You must understand they’re half-siblings.”

In prominent families, the most taboo situation is having half-siblings because inheritance divisions can become messy.

“Is he in danger now?” Leng Me’er asked worriedly.

Luo Xi shook her head. “I haven’t heard of any information yet, but if Feng Lingye gets engaged to Mu Qing, then his situation will be dangerous.”

Upon hearing this, Leng Me’er panicked. “Then quickly call my eldest brother and tell him I’m willing to go through with the marriage.”
