Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Xiao Chen’s biological mother passed away due to derangement and physical malnutrition. Xiao Chen was then admitted to the best university in the country due to his excellent grades, quickly attracting the attention of Xiao Xian.

But Xiao Xian wasn’t the cold-hearted father that he seemed to be. He had planned to retrieve Xiao Chen, but his wife kept him on a short leash, causing him to be unable to retrieve Xiao Chen.

Xiao Xian was the father of too many illegitimate children, but he would not acknowledge those who weren’t talented. After he bribed them with money, he would treat them as if they never existed.

However, Xiao Chen was always on his mind.

It would seem that Xiao Chen mainly inherited Xiao Xian’s genes. His good looks and elegance resembled a noble prince. Xiao Chen’s expression was similar to his father’s when he was a child.

Xiao Xian was satisfied with Xiao Chen the most compared to his other illegitimate children. So Xiao Xian secretly sent his illegitimate son abroad to study and hid this matter from his wife. Then he simply waited for the right opportunity to bring Xiao Chen back to Southern City.

Xiao Xian was almost sixty years old this year, and his physical health was gradually declining. His wife had also passed away, so he finally had the opportunity to bring Xiao Chen back from abroad.

An Dong and Xiao Xian had always been very close. So when he heard that Xiao Chen had finally returned, he immediately decided to meet with him. Xiao Chen instantly made a good impression on An Dong.

An Dong was also worried about friction between An Xue and Mo Yu, so he decided to marry his daughter off to the Xiao family.

An Dong had told Xiao Xian about his intentions, and Xiao Xian naturally agreed without any hesitation. After all, the two were good friends, and the marriage between their children would deepen their friendship even more.

Xiao Xian then relayed this matter to Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen knew that his father had already decided on the marriage, so he took advantage of the situation and agreed to marry An Xue willingly.

Xiao Chen had known all along that he would return to take over the Xiao family’s business. Still, he did not have a prominent mother and was also Xiao Chen’s illegitimate child, so this would undoubtedly affect their plans.

The only way to prevent any discrepancies was to arrange a marriage between the An and Xiao families. This would also cause Xiao Chen to have a significant advantage over Xiao Xian’s legitimate son, Xiao Wu.

Madam Xiao, Xiao Xian’s wife, had previously dealt with all the women her husband had gotten involved with. She did this so that her children could live comfortably on the success of the Xiao family.

Nonetheless, Xiao Wu thought that he was the sole heir to the Xiao family. He began to behave arrogant and complacent. Xiao Wu studied hard, but he also got involved with a third-rate actress with a bad reputation. He then vowed to marry that woman.

The Xiao family was known throughout Southern City. When Xiao Xian heard that Xiao Wu wanted to marry a woman with a bad reputation, he became furious and burst into a fit of rage. He was utterly disappointed. Xiao Xian gradually began to think that he should not entrust the family business to Xiao Wu.

However, Xiao Xian remembered that his illegitimate son had not gotten married yet and thought he was intelligent and obedient enough to take over the Xiao family business. So he agreed to An Dong’s proposal. Xiao Chen was respectful and sensible toward his decisions which satisfied Xiao Xian.

Meanwhile, Xiao Chen looked at his future fiancée and said in a gentle and polite tone, “What brings you here at this late hour, Miss An?”

Although An Xue was not satisfied with her marriage to this man, she thought Xiao Chen had always been polite. She had come to visit Xiao Chen because she didn’t have anyone else to talk to.

An Xue snorted, “The Mo family has cut ties with my family. My father told me that your father had a good relationship with the Mo family when he was younger. I hope that you can talk to the Mo family and convince them to resolve the misunderstandings between them and my family.”

Xiao Chen revealed a faint smile on his face. “Yes, I knew that you would ask that of me. What more do you want?”

Xiao Chen had anticipated An Xue’s request.

He naturally knew what An Xue said. But, it was such a simple matter, so there was no need for her to come personally.

An Xue did not expect Xiao Chen to be so observant. He even guessed that she had come to ask him for help.

She bit her cherry lips, took out her phone, and showed a picture of a person to Xiao Chen. “Do you know this person? This is Mo Yu’s wife. Her name is Fang Liu. I know that you want to marry into the An family, but I’m not willing to marry you so easily. You have to prove your loyalty to me first. Go and get rid of this woman and get her out of Southern City. If you do succeed, I’ll marry you.”

An Dong kept a close eye on An Xue. The only person he would allow his daughter to visit was Xiao Chen, so she thought of a way to convince him to help her.

An Xue could see that Xiao Chen was trying to climb up the social ladder. Even though Xiao Chen was the heir to the Xiao family, chosen by Xiao Xian, he was still an illegitimate son. She knew that Xiao Chen could only raise his status by marrying her.. Only then would he be able to take over the Xiao family.
