85: Bai Muxue's Resistance

Marriages within great families are like this.

Everything revolves around profit!

As for other things,

They all come second.

As soon as Wang Fu (Wang's father) spoke,

It almost confirmed the outcome of this marriage alliance.

From now on,

The connection between the Bai Family and the Wang Family will undoubtedly become even closer!

The surrounding family heads couldn't help but show a hint of envy and jealousy in their eyes as they looked at Bai Fu (Bai's father)!

The Wang Family is one of the Modu Four Great Families!

The Bai Family has now climbed to a high branch.

They will surely rise rapidly and take off directly in the future!

However,

While they were jealous in their hearts,

On the surface, they all wore smiles.

“Congratulations to Family Head Bai and Family Head Wang on their happy marriage alliance!”

“In the future, with seamless cooperation between the Bai Family and the Wang Family, you will surely reach a higher level!”

“Congratulations, Wang Shao, on marrying a beauty.”

“Tsk tsk, I saw Miss Bai outside earlier, her figure and appearance were simply… amazing.”

“Wang Shao is blessed!”

“……”

Many family heads were cursing inwardly at this moment, but smiling outwardly.

When it came to polite conversation,

Each one was more impressive than the last!

Wang Liang listened to the flattery from the people around him.

A hint of pride couldn't help but appear on his face!

As a notorious playboy in Modu,

He naturally knew how many people had pursued Bai Muxue back then.

Among them, there were quite a few young talents stronger than him.

But in the end?

Didn't she still fall into his hands?

“No matter how talented you are, in the end, doesn’t it still depend on your background?”

Just as everyone was lost in their own thoughts,

The originally noisy scene suddenly quieted for a moment.

The two family heads subconsciously turned to look.

They saw that it was Bai Muxue who had entered the venue.

Dressed in a white long dress, under the crystal chandeliers overhead,

As soon as she entered the banquet hall,

She became the center of attention!

Many people instantly lost their composure…

This was why the scene became momentarily silent.

Bai Fu (Bai's father) showed a smile and walked over.

Among the past Bai Family heads,

In terms of talent and ability,

He wasn't actually outstanding; he could even be considered mediocre!

However, what made him most proud in his life was having given birth to this pair of sisters!

His younger sister was favored by the Chen Family Young Master.

Now, his elder sister could also form a marriage alliance with the Wang Family!

Either point alone,

Was enough for him to be recorded in the family genealogy!

For future generations to admire!

“Haha, Muxue, come quickly, haven’t you greeted Family Head Wang yet?”

Bai Fu (Bai's father) was in a very good mood.

He stepped forward and reached out, wanting to take Bai Muxue's wrist.

Wang Fu (Wang's father) also said with a smile, “Indeed, I’ve long heard that the Bai Family Young Lady is a beauty of unparalleled charm, and after returning from abroad these past few years, her temperament has improved even further!”

He was quite satisfied with this daughter-in-law.

His son was out carousing all day.

If it weren't for Chen Tianming keeping him in check,

Who knows what he might have become.

Now, marrying a wife and settling down for a couple of years,

It was also time to prepare for inheriting the family head position later…

Bai Muxue saw the expressions of these people.

Her delicate brows furrowed slightly!

She subtly dodged Bai Fu (Bai's father)'s hand.

And said lightly, “Greetings, Family Head Wang.”

Many people around saw this scene.

For a moment, it was quiet.

They looked at each other, speechless!

Their expressions varied!

They had long heard that due to this marriage contract,

The Bai Family father and daughter had almost fallen out!

Now it seemed,

The rumors were not false!

Everyone present was a shrewd person.

They immediately realized,

This banquet might not be so simple!

Bai Fu (Bai's father)'s arm hung in the air for a moment.

He awkwardly chuckled twice.

And subtly withdrew his hand.

And Wang Fu (Wang's father) on the side naturally noticed this.

He frowned slightly.

And subtly gave his foolish son next to him a look!

He had originally thought that the Bai Family should have already resolved this small matter.

But now it seemed,

That was not the case!

Moreover, to put it bluntly,

Although Wang Liang’s reputation was in tatters outside,

With the title of Wang Family Young Master,

He truly wasn't afraid of not finding a suitable marriage partner.

His previous interest in the Bai Family,

Was not because the Bai Family had any special competitiveness compared to other families.

It was mainly Wang Liang's request.

Now, Bai Muxue seemed unwilling.

So in his opinion,

Before anything was set in stone,

A final probe was very necessary.

Otherwise, if they were to forcefully proceed with the wedding and something went wrong,

That would be a huge loss of face!

Wang Liang naturally noticed his father's gaze.

It was at this moment that he stepped forward.

He bowed slightly and extended his arm.

“I’ve long heard that Miss Bai is a beauty who can topple cities, and seeing you today, it truly lives up to your reputation. May I have the honor of a dance?”

Bai Muxue glanced at Wang Liang next to her.

And narrowed her eyes.

As the Bai Family Young Lady,

Although she hadn't been in the family for many years,

She still knew a little about the Four Great Families.

This scoundrel in front of her,

When he was out and about,

Using his status,

Had ruined countless women.

She naturally had no good feelings for him whatsoever!

Bai Muxue felt disgusted inwardly,

But on the surface, she maintained basic politeness.

She shook her head and said, “Sorry, I don’t dance.”

Clearly, this was an excuse!

How many rich young people who constantly attended various banquets didn't know how to dance?

Bai Muxue’s meaning was very clear.

She had no interest in Wang Liang whatsoever!

And she did not acknowledge the marriage alliance with the Wang Family!

Bai Fu (Bai's father)’s face immediately changed!

He quickly said sternly, “Muxue, don’t be foolish!”

“This is not the place for you to throw a tantrum!”

“Foolish?” Bai Muxue sneered.

She looked at her father.

Her expression was icy cold.

As if she were looking at a stranger.

“What’s foolish about me not liking Wang Liang?”

“Did you ask me when you arranged the marriage alliance with the Wang Family?”

“Did you consider my feelings?”

“Now you tell me not to be foolish!”

“What do you take me for?”

“Your tool for marriage alliance?”

Bai Muxue had been in a bad mood these past few days.

After a big argument with Bai Fu (Bai's father) previously,

They hadn't seen each other again until today.

Now, seeing that Bai Fu (Bai's father) had arranged the dinner without asking her,

Intending to force her to marry Wang Liang in public!

Her accumulated anger of several days immediately burst forth!

If her younger sister hadn't said she could completely resolve this matter,

She might have already left the alliance…

Bai Muxue’s voice wasn't loud,

But it was definitely not soft either.

Many people heard Bai Muxue's words, suppressing her anger.

For a moment, although they maintained basic etiquette,

And didn't directly approach,

Many people were already secretly glancing over here…

Bai Fu (Bai's father)’s face turned green then pale!

He had never expected that his most sensible daughter,

After staying abroad for a few years,

Would now return and say such words in front of so many people,

Giving him no face at all!

Bai Fu (Bai's father)’s body trembled.

He pointed at Bai Muxue, and for a moment, he couldn't even say a complete sentence!

“You, you…”
