Chapter 865: The Great Actor, Mu Mu (3)
“You…”
Mu Mu was furious!
Before Mo Beihan could stop him, Mu Mu opened his mouth and pitched in. “It’s clearly you who love wealth and despise poverty. You’re shamelessly after my Young Uncle’s money. Why pretend to be so lofty? You once shamelessly asked me about my Second Uncle. Now that my Young Uncle is rich, you’re fawning on him. Bai Youran, you’re a disgrace to the entire Bai family. You don’t seem like someone raised by the Bai family at all.”
Bai Youran’s expression changed and she immediately said, “What rubbis.h.!.+ I grew up in the Bai family. I’m my parents’ only daughter. How can it be possible that I’m not raised by the Bai family? If I hear you creating rumors like that again, I won’t let you off!”
Mu Mu raised his brows. “I just meant that the Bai family doesn’t act in such a despicable way. I just meant that your character is not like the other members of the Bai family. Why are you agitated? I didn’t say you’re not the Bai family’s daughter.
“Look at yourself. If I didn’t know better, I would think you have something on your conscience and you’re really not the Bai family’s daughter!”
Bai Youran’s expression grew even more ugly, and she screamed, “Shut up! Don’t talk nonsense. I am the Bai family’s daughter. I am the Bai family’s young lady. No one can change my status!”
Gu Ruoqing had been hara.s.sing her mercilessly of late and kept using the fact that she was not the Bai family’s young lady to threaten her. She had suffered greatly in order to maintain her status as a rich young lady.
She had been unable to contact Mo Yunhao, so she had been feeling very stressed. The moment Mu Mu said that, she immediately exploded!
The moment she finished bellowing, she realized that Jiang Hongying was staring at her in shock. Even Mu Mu and Mo Beihan were looking at her strangely.
Bai Youran’s heart thumped. She looked at Jiang Hongying and hurriedly said, “Au-Aunt, I… I overreacted because he was maligning me. His words were so ugly. He’s just a child, but his words are so vicious!”
Jiang Hongying nodded and felt that what Bai Youran said made sense. She said, “They’re all from the countryside and were not properly brought up. How embarra.s.sing!”
Mu Mu just stood there with a meaningful gleam in his eye.
Mo Beihan, who had not said anything yet, glanced at Mu Mu. Strange, what was this fellow up to?
Judging from his expression, he seemed to know that Bai Youran was not the Bai family’s daughter.
Something was amiss!
The children only knew that Yao Yao’s true mother was someone else. They did not know that Bai Youran was Zhang Xiaohui’s daughter!
How had this brat found out?
Bai Youran breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Jiang Hongying did not suspect anything. It stiffened her resolve to marry Mo Yunhao as quickly as possible before anything went wrong.
“Aunt, when is Yunhao coming back? I haven’t seen him for many days!”
After all, she was the Bai family’s young lady. Jiang Hongying had been feeling displeased, but she still thought that Mo Beihan fancied Bai Youran. Jiang Hongying’s anger dissipated when she saw Bai Youran acting like that in front of Mo Beihan.
“Don’t worry. Yunhao will be back soon, and you can see each other. When he gets back, I’ll ask him to look for you!”
Bai Youran immediately looked shy.
Mo Beihan led Mu Mu away ‘forlornly’.
As they walked, Mu Mu was still philosophizing. “That woman is just too much. I say, Young Uncle, why did you let him drag it out for so long? Couldn’t you have sent her packing long ago?”
Mo Beihan looked at Mu Mu. This brat enjoyed calling him Young Uncle.
In front of outsiders, he still addressed Mo Beihan as Second Uncle to distinguish between him and Mo Yunhao. But when there was no one around, he addressed him as Young Uncle!
“What did you mean just now? You know that Bai Youran doesn’t belong to the Bai family?”
