Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.

After dinner.

Before Yan Na could even go to Lan Yunchen's room, Lan Yunxi enthusiastically pulled her to his own room, leaving the two men following behind feeling quite helpless.

But she also dotes on her; it's clear that Xixi welcomes her sister-in-law's arrival.

"Ta-da... Sister-in-law, do you think my room is pretty?" Lan Yunxi stretched out her hand to introduce her room, showing off the whole room, and then opened the balcony door to introduce the view from the balcony.

Yan Na's eyes were immediately drawn to the hanging chair, which glittered in the sunlight. She couldn't help but be shocked. A hanging chair covered in diamonds?

Isn't that a bit too extravagant?

The two burly men following behind naturally noticed the uneasy expression on Yan Na's usually composed face, while Han Yue leaned leisurely against the door, pursing his lips and remaining silent. This was his room with the young girl.

Lan Yunchen: "You like it?"

Yan Na quickly shook her head, not daring to say she liked it. What if they got her one tomorrow? Her aunt and uncle might have something to say. She wasn't a little princess anymore, and she was past the age of liking these things.

She was simply a little shocked and surprised, shook her head, and praised, "It looks great, it suits Xixi."

The underlying meaning didn't suit her, but Lan Yunchen understood it.

"Okay, okay, brother won't monopolize sister-in-law anymore. Sister-in-law, if you're bored, come and play with me."

Before leaving, Yan Na glanced at the bed one last time. The bed was covered with dolls. She gave Han Yue a meaningful look. Han Yue simply hugged the dolls to his arms, lay down on his side, and answered Yan Na's question with his actions.

Lan Yunchen covered his nose with one hand to hide his smile, and put his arm around Yan Na as they left. At the door, Yan Na began to speak, "Lan Yunchen, may I interview you?"

Without Yan Na even asking, Lan Yunchen already knew what she wanted to ask. He smiled faintly and cooperated, "Sure, ask away. I will answer to the best of my knowledge."

Shen Muyun came out of her room and bumped into two people chatting and laughing. Her son had a happy smile on his face. "Nana, if there's anything you don't like to live in, or if you're missing anything, just tell Yunchen and let him buy it."

"Yunchen, do you know?"

"Mom, I understand."

Yan Na nodded her thanks, feeling the thoughtfulness of the Lan family and the care from her future mother-in-law.

Shen Muyun gracefully stepped downstairs in slippers. She had changed her down jacket into a shawl, and underneath she was still wearing a plain-colored cheongsam, looking very dignified and gentle.

Watching her future mother-in-law's retreating figure, Yan Na was led into her room by Lan Yunchen. As soon as she entered, she was pushed against the door, which was then locked.

As the lock clicked shut, Yan Na laughed. "President Lan, why don't you tell me what you were thinking back then? How could someone as rich as you accept 800 million from me, huh?"

The last character, "恩" (en), seems to imply settling scores later.

Yan Na, who was pinned against the wall, was not afraid. Instead, she moved her hands up little by little until they reached her Adam's apple. Her slender fingers teased her, moving up inch by inch, her voice charming and coquettish.

Lan Yunchen was quite indulgent towards the blatant temptation and did not interrupt the woman's flirting. However, he suppressed a certain emotion that was about to erupt in his eyes, and Yan Na kept jumping on the edge of the volcano that was about to erupt.

He answered in a slightly hoarse voice, bending down slightly to look Yan Na in the eye. He didn't like looking down at her; he preferred to lower himself to be at her eye level. "I'll tell you why now."

Just as Yan Na thought Lan Yunchen was going to explain, she was suddenly lifted into the air and carried straight into the bathroom before she could even look around Lan Yunchen's room.

The bathroom door slammed shut.

She then realized that Lan Yunchen's explanation was delivered through actions, not words.

The bathroom was radiating heat, which seeped out of the door crack and filled the quiet room with a unique atmosphere.

A few hours later, Yan Na had no interest in appreciating the environment of Lan Yunchen's room. She didn't even want to look at the color of the quilt. Her legs were trembling slightly. This man had shown her with his actions why she had deliberately taken the bait.

Yes, she sensed the reason.

In the bathroom, Lan Yunchen said something very vulgar, which was completely inconsistent with his usual image and showed another side of him.

In the other room, a truce was declared for the night, and the couple simply slept peacefully in each other's arms, with dolls placed on either side of them, as if protecting them as they slept.

Early the next morning.

After the six people finished breakfast, five went to the company, and one stayed at home. After everyone left, Shen Muyun went to the greenhouse to prune the flowers and trees as usual, and then went to the balcony to read.

Lan Group.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the group entered the private elevator. Yan Na, because of her excessive behavior last night, was wearing a turtleneck sweater, a black coat, white wide-leg pants, and high heels. Her curly hair was casually draped over her shoulders.

Han Yue was dressed very casually in a full hoodie set. He was there to visit, not to work, and to accompany the young girl. Lan Yunxi, on the other hand, was dressed much better in an irregular sweater, a white down jacket with shorts, shorts, stockings, and Martin boots, with a high ponytail, looking very innocent.

Lan Yunchen is the president of the Lan Group, so he is dressed relatively formally. He is wearing a formal black suit underneath a long black down jacket, except for a faint mark at the neck.

Lan Yunxi didn't see it, but the sharp-eyed Han Yue had spotted it when he saw Lan Yunchen come down in the morning.

As soon as I stepped out of the elevator, I encountered a woman wearing a hazy blue suit with a white shirt underneath, nude high heels, shoulder-length short hair, and light makeup.

Upon seeing the group emerge, she first respectfully greeted Lan Chumu, "Hello, Chairman, hello, President Lan."

Then, standing respectfully to the side, he followed them to the office without saying a word, only glancing at Yan Na and unconsciously smiling.

Xi Xi hid next to Han Yue and playfully greeted the woman, who winked her left eye in return.

At the same time, Yan Na also noticed this pretty woman, who looked a little older than her, but seemed to know how to dress well and was at least very pleasant to look at, giving off a friendly vibe.

Lan Yunxi and Han Yue didn't go into the office. Instead, Lan Yunxi dragged Han Yue to wander around her company. Everyone at the workstations was curious about why there were so many unfamiliar faces today.

This was Han Yue's first visit. Lan Chumu had previously told him to come and visit the Lan Group, but he was always in a rush when he came, busy with the young lady, so he never got to visit the Lan Group.

Under Lan Yunxi's guidance, Han Yue familiarized himself with each department one by one, just like he was here to start his new job.

Inside the office.

Lan Chumu sat down, took off his coat, and the woman in hazy blue took it and hung it on the hanger. She began to introduce them, "Qiaoqiao, this is the newly hired general manager of the marketing department. Nana, this is Dong Qiao, Yunchen's secretary, and also the daughter of my best friend. She's one of us."

Dong Qiao, isn't this the person who sent the message?

Without pausing for long, Yan Na gracefully extended her hand to shake the woman's hand and introduced herself, "Yan Na, nice to meet you."

She didn't mention the text message; Lan Yunchen had already explained it to her, and besides, her future father-in-law had also specifically explained the relationship earlier.

Since Lan Yunchen hadn't brought Yan Na to meet Dong Qiao last time, he put his arm around Yan Na's shoulder and introduced her, "My fiancée, she'll be my wife soon."

Yan Na: "............."

Dong Qiao covered her mouth and laughed, no longer addressing him respectfully as "Chairman" as she did in public, but instead using a more intimate term of address, "Uncle Lan, look at Yunchen, it's a good thing I'm a woman. If I were a man, I'd probably be considered a rival in love, as if I were competing with him for his fiancée."

Lan Chumu gave Yan Na face, saying, "You can interpret it as Yun Chen feeling very threatened, and Nana being very outstanding."

Dong Qiao joked, "I can see that. You're very outstanding. You have excellent taste. Congratulations! If you forget to hand out any wedding candy when we're handing it out, you'll be in trouble."

Lan Yunchen: "I'll give you the first one. Take good care of my fiancée, and I'll give you a few more candies."

Everyone laughed. The two women exchanged a glance and smiled knowingly at the same time.

The atmosphere was very harmonious.

After chatting idly for over ten minutes, Lan Yunchen took Yan Na to a meeting, introduced her position, and gave the orders to Lan Chumu, which gave Yan Na a lot of confidence. You should know that Lan Chumu basically doesn't attend these kinds of meetings at the company. Today, he was just here to support his daughter-in-law in case she wasn't comfortable with it.

After the meeting, Yan Na went to the break room, and Dong Qiao came in to apologize, "I'm sorry."

Yan Na knew what she was referring to, turned around, and said with a polite smile, "It's nothing, Yunchen explained it to me."

"I thought this guy was just kidding me. If I had known he really had a girlfriend, I wouldn't have sent him this message. This brat was in Beijing before, and he had a difficult client. I asked him to come back, and he told me he was chasing after his girlfriend and couldn't come back. I thought it was just an excuse for him not wanting to socialize, so I kept urging him to bring his girlfriend to see me. But this brat kept standing me up and saying he would come another day, so I thought it was fake."

"I'm sorry if this has caused any misunderstanding."

People who have been through marriage can understand that it's best for couples to avoid misunderstandings. If Yunchen and this girl have a misunderstanding because of her, she will be in big trouble. She has to explain the joke she made.

Yan Na took a sip of water, sensing the woman's directness. "Do I look that petty? To be honest, I felt quite uncomfortable when I saw the message, but we explained it to each other immediately, which also helped our relationship progress."

After saying that, Yan Na nodded to show that she meant it and didn't want the woman in front of her to feel guilty. She could tell that the woman's apology was very sincere.

Dong Qiao shrugged. "So, I unknowingly helped out. The good and bad cancel each other out, not bad."

To be honest, Yan Na had a very good impression of this woman. She was right or wrong, and if things weren't right, she could turn around and leave cleanly and decisively, without any lingering attachment to the wealthy family. "In private, I'll call you Sister Qiao, just like Yun Chen does."

"Yes, I couldn't be happier. From today onwards, I have another little sister. I've gained so much. Uncle Lan is very lucky. His daughters-in-law are all beautiful, and his sons-in-law are incredibly handsome. It's true that beauties and handsome men go hand in hand, leaving only bachelors and single women behind."

Dong Qiao's language style is very humorous, as if she has no burdens or worries in life, and she gives people a carefree feeling.

As I came out of the tea room, I bumped into Black Tiger. He stood respectfully to the side, watching Yan Na and Dong Qiao's departing figures with a blank expression.
