The moment Lan Anran stepped into the house, she saw two men in the dining hall drinking tea with Lan Tingyun.

There were extremely valuable gifts stacked at the door, each one seeming to be very expensive.

Lan Anran immediately guessed that Mo Jinrong was here to ask for her hand.

Seeing the beautiful girl come through the door, Mo San the butler pushed his gold-wire glasses up the bridge of his nose and disbelief flashed past his eyes. The rumours of her unparalleled beauty were indeed true.

As Mo Jinrong’s butler, Mo San had naturally seen a fair share of beautiful women, but it was the first time he had seen such youthful beauty.

He smiled.

“It looks like this is the young lady of the Lan Family, Lan Anran.”

Lan Anran nodded silently, her gaze falling on the suited man by the side. He wore a white suit, his lips were red, teeth white, and he was staring at her quietly with a pair of black and shiny eyes.

She sensed a flash of awe in Mo Jinrong’s eyes. In her past life, he had looked at her with such a gaze as well.

“Anran, let me introduce you. This is Young Master Mo, Mo Jinrong, and the one beside him is Butler Mo,” Lan Tingyun gave a polite and thorough introduction.

He eyed Mo Jinrong and the butler. Mo Jinrong was as ugly as the rumours said, but his butler was very good-looking.

Lan Tingyun felt troubled. How could such an ugly appearance match up to his daughter?

Lan Anran didn’t speak and was forcing down a smile. She placed her bag down, quietly seated herself, and looked at Mo Jinrong with a piercing gaze.

Mo Jinrong was standing, but she recognised him at a glance. He had swapped positions with his butler.

“Yanran, go outside and play. Children aren’t sensible, don’t mind them,” Lan Tingyun said awkwardly to his son.

“Hi, I am Lan Anran,” Lan Anran’s voice was soft as she introduced herself gently.

Mo Jinrong eyed the girl in front of him. She didn’t seem to have a violent temperament as rumored. She was dressed like a student, with a touch of blue embellishment on her white coat. She had an exquisite face and her fair and slender swan-like neck stretched all the way to her collarbone.

With her long black hair and big watery eyes, she looked perfect.

He had made up his mind, Lan Anran would be the lady of the Mo Family. She was very suitable.

“Ahem, Miss Lan, I’m here today to ask for your hand in marriage.”

Mo didn’t say much, looking as though he was here for a negotiation.

Lan Anran nodded, with a faint smile on her face.

What a poor pretense, Lan Anran thought with contempt.

“It’s not impossible for me to marry into the Mo Family. It’s just that the Mo Family needs to give me some extra betrothal gifts. Those at the door aren’t enough. I need the same rights as you and I want a house. If you agree, I will marry you.”

Lan Anran smiled.

Becoming a lady of the Mo Family wasn’t a simple identity and it was even more difficult to have the same rights as Mo Jinrong. She needed the identity.

A house could be used as her secret stronghold. This would be a secret that no one would know about.

“Anran, you can’t do that.”

Lan Tingyun felt it was overboard and wanted to stop her.

Mo San raised his head and looked at the person beside him, rotating the jade ring on his finger before nodding.

“I agree. This will be my wedding gift.”

Mo San took out a beautiful box that was surrounded by sapphires.

Lan Anran recognised it immediately as she had received such a box in her past life.

She accepted it, her eyes becoming moist.

There was a jade bracelet in the centre of the box, it was white with a hint of green.

“This is my sincerity. Since Miss Lan accepts this bracelet, it means that the marriage is settled.”

Mo San spoke like a boss.

Mo Jinrong had been observing Lan Anran and noticed the abnormality in her mood, but it wasn’t a big fluctuation. She was probably excited from receiving a gift for the first time.

This was a marriage the two families arranged long ago. Even if he wasn’t willing, his mother would interfere, hence, it was better to go with the flow. Besides, this little girl wouldn’t be able to wreak havoc.

Lan Anran nodded, staring at the bracelet without a word.

Lan Tingyun was worried Lan Anran had asked for too much, angering Mo Jinrong. He was shocked that he had agreed.

“The marriage has to be confidential. We won’t hold a wedding and we will get the marriage licence directly,” Mo San continued.

“Sure,” Lan Anran agreed without a thought.

Mo Jinrong found the crisp reply hard to accept. He originally thought Lan Anran would reject this, but she didn’t.

“Since that’s the case, it’s settled. Let’s get married in three days!”

“What? Three days?”

Lan Tingyun found it too fast. They had just asked for her hand today and wanted so many harsh requirements. They also wanted to get the marriage licence tomorrow. It was too fast for him to accept.

“Uncle Lan, you disagree?” Mo Jinrong asked with a raised brow.

“No, I don’t disagree, but it’s too fast. I…”

Lan Tingyun wanted to explain but was interrupted by Lan Anran.

“Dad, it’s alright.”

Lan Anran signalled him with a glance.

Lan Tingyun kept quiet, agreeing with his silence.
