Chapter 64: Giving Birth To An Heir, Becoming the First Lady (3)
Mu Tianwei rarely behaved out of the ordinary and he anxiously probed Zhao Manru, for fear that he had heard wrongly.
Zhao Manru nodded earnestly while staring at the ecstatic look on her husband’s face, before turning to look at Li Shufen and Mu Cuiyun who were both stunned. She could not help but feel smug and proud.
As long as her daughter fights and climbs the ladder to rise to the position of Third Young Master’s wife, Zhao Manru would call the shots in the Mu Family in the future!
“Although Madam Bo had indeed made such a promise, we don’t know what might happen in the process. Nianqing’s status per se is just disgraceful! Tianwei, could you think of a way to get our marriage settled as soon as possible so that we can erase Nianqing’s label as your ‘illegitimate daughter’, which has marred her life so far… ”
It was clear what Zhao Manru meant.
So long as she did not marry Mu Tianwei, Mu Nianqing would forever be his illegitimate daughter!
Social status and hierarchy was strict in Britain. Given how prestigious Third Young Master is, how could he tolerate having a wife who’s an illegitimate daughter!?!
After all, Mu Nianqing would never get that opportunity if it were not because of his physical condition.
So, Mu Nianqing was bent on grasping the opportunity!
Mu Tianwei was initially planning to transfer 10% of Luo Zheng’s shares to himself when she turned 18 years old… so that he could become a major shareholder of the Luo Family and go on to become a director.
The Luo Family was one of the four most prestigious families in Capital City and hence, a director of the Luo Family would definitely hold a high status!
Yet, his capable daughter managed to get herself associated with the Bo Family of Britain.
If she can really give birth to an heir and become the First Lady, I would become the president’s father-in-law… Mu Tianwei thought. He dared not imagine how glorious it would be and he was filled with excitement.
If becoming a director of the Luo Family was a huge leap… becoming the father-in-law of the Bo Family’s son would leave him with absolutely no regret in this life!
“Manru, you are right! You are right …”
Mu Tianwei rubbed his hands and tried to contain his emotions while thinking.
The more he thought about it, the more he realized that Mu Nianqing could no longer remain as his illegitimate daughter!
“There is still half a year to go before Luo Zheng turns 18. Once she does, I will marry you right away! Of course, if Nianqing can win Third Young Master’s favor, I’ll definitely marry you in advance! You can rest assured that it will never affect Nianqing… ”
Mu Tianwei came to such a conclusion after weighing the pros and cons over and over again.
Although Zhao Manru was feeling indignant about having to wait another six months… she still wanted to get the shares left behind by Luo Huawei!
Didn’t she leave those shares behind for her daughter? I must make her end up with nothing so that Luo Huawei will not rest in peace!
“Tianwei, will Luo Zheng be willing to let you marry me?”
Zhao Manru deliberately popped that question with a tender and vulnerable expression on her face.
Mu Tianwei’s eyes glistened and he said with a menacing expression, “If she dares to disagree, I will.. destroy her!”
Upon hearing his words, Zhao Manru smiled in satisfaction without uttering a single word.
As for Li Shufen and Mu Cuiyun, the two of them were so immersed in their happiness and surprise that they didn’t think there was anything wrong with his statement.
No one shall stop the Mu Family from rising!
***
Luo Zheng could not help but feel an ominous hunch.
Ever since Zhao Manru visited, the Mu family members had been incredibly thrilled, as if they had encountered the happiest thing on earth, especially Mu Tianwei who seemed to be in high spirits all the time.
She wondered, did I miss something?
Nothing major happened to the Mu Family at this time in my previous life. What went wrong?
In the end, Luo Zheng decided to give up because she just could not figure it out at all. She decided to take everything in her stride!
On Friday afternoon, the last class which was supposed to be a music lesson, was replaced by an English lesson. It was very much to the dismay of the students.
The teacher of English class was the class teacher, Zhao Yafang.
Ever since they made a bet, Luo Zheng and Zhao Yafang had been ignoring each other while secretly waiting for the test to arrive next month.
There happened to be an art lesson going on in Capital University.
Luo Zheng happily organized her table and got ready to leave.
“Luo Zheng, you’re actually thinking of playing truant again! How can you win the bet and get into the top ten? You must be dreaming!”
