The Days of Being in a Fake Marriage with the CEO Chapter 332 – If I Don’t Behave (Chapter 5)

Chapter 332: If I Don’t Behave (5)

After pondering for a day and a night, Mu Huan finally decided on her next steps.

She decided, once she had built a strong foundation, she would expose her true nature. And if Bao Junyan could accept her and still wanted her as his wife, then she’d spend the rest of her life with him!

If he didn’t accept her, then no matter how painful and unbearable it was, she could only leave since he didn’t like her.

Hence, the most important thing came back to the foundation — which meant having money, position, and status! If she wanted to leave, she had to have enough money and enough clout to come up against her paternal grandmother and to ensure the safety of her granny.

On Saturday morning, Mu Huan went to the Mu family residence.

“Grandma, I heard that Bao Junyan’s ex-fiancee is returning.”

Matriarch Mu froze in the middle of raising her teacup to her lips.

Mu Huan continued, “Bao Junyan’s family really likes his ex-fiancee. I’ve even heard from his cousin that it was this ex-fiancee who dumped Bao Junyan. She must be quite a formidable woman who comes from a good background to have dumped Bao Junyan.”

“I have heard people saying that Bao Junyan’s ex-fiancee is a formidable character. You’d better have a good hold on the man’s heart!” Matriarch Mu said as she placed her teacup down.

Mu Huan had been well-behaved lately, for she had managed to secure whatever benefits the old lady wanted from Bao Junyan. Hence, her attitude toward this granddaughter had softened a great deal.

“I will try my best to capture his heart, but it has to be on the premise that there’s no hindrance from Grandma’s end.”

“Why would I hinder you? Don’t you know why I spent so much effort to marry you off to the Bao family? Why would I shoot myself in the foot?” Matriarch Mu was displeased that she should say something like that.

“Grandma, have you never thought what would happen if those things you have in your possession right now should fall into another person’s hands?”

Matriarch Mu knew at once what the girl was driving at, and she said, “Those are things to do with life and death. How would I allow them to end up in someone else’s hands? This not only has something to do with your life and death, but it also concerns the life and death of the Mu family!”

“Grandma, there is no place in this world that is a hundred percent safe, and there are no external parties that are completely trustworthy. No matter where you put them, these things can fall into the hands of someone else.”

One of the most important things that Mu Huan had to do was to destroy these things that her grandma was holding on to, so that the old lady would not have any control over her in the future. This was the only way she could freely be with Bao Junyan.

Mu Huan had always planned before she acted, and she would prepare herself both ways — whether to attack or to retreat and defend.

Ling Wei was coming back and this was a good opportunity. Such a great external pressure would reinforce in the old lady the danger of possessing those things. Given this, if she played her card well, she could talk her grandma into destroying them.

“You need only to relax and focus on capturing the man’s heart. These things will not end up in anyone else’s hands.”

Matriarch Mu had already guessed what she wanted. She knew, as Mu Huan had said, that if those things ended up in someone else’s hands, that would be the end of their family. But how would she let someone get their hands on those things?

“Grandma, you’re not the only person who knows of the existence of these things. There’s Lin Qingya. And after what happened with Bai Xuexian, you should be very aware of the sort of person she is. Lin Qingya is merely the daughter-in-law of the Gu family and yet she’s already untouchable. If, when Ling Wei returns and she has this strong ally, would she feel that she’d let us alone? You don’t think that she would make Ling Wei find ways and means to get her hands on these things? Grandma is not afraid of this possibility?”

Finally, Matriarch Mu turned pale.
