Chapter 1685

“You’re not?” Mu Xuri stared into her eyes, speaking coldly.

“Stop with the sweet talk. We’ve seen clearly in the Mu family. Do you still want to deceive us?”

Huo Dongyu cursed angrily.

Suddenly, a crisp and elegant voice emerged.

“She really isn’t.”

Everyone followed the voice to see Baili Xia slowly standing up.

Facing Mu Xuri, she calmly said, “She really isn’t Baili Yang’s granddaughter.”

She wasn’t trying to clarify anything for Ning Anran, she just knew that even if she didn’t speak, Ning Anran would say it herself.

At this moment, Ning Anran was no longer the familiar person she used to be.

For her own sake, she was willing to hurt these friends of many years.

Recalling what Mu Xiaojiu had said before entering, there’s no hiding from it; it’s better to face it.

As long as she remains in the Mu family, this day will inevitably come.

Furthermore, she is indeed Baili Yang’s granddaughter and never intended to deny it.

Mu Xiaojiu’s complexion slightly darkened, his displeased gaze swept toward Ning Anran.

Ning Anran’s heart panicked, she could only lower her head and remain silent.

She knew, she had previously promised Mr.

Xiaojiu that if he gave her the reward, this matter would be put aside.

Yet, Mr.

Xiaojiu…

he didn’t even consider her at all.

If she spends her whole life under the identity of Baili Yang’s granddaughter, in the future, Mu Xuri definitely won’t let her stay by Mr.

Xiaojiu’s side.

Even if Mr.

Xiaojiu has the ability to keep her in the Mu family.

However, if she can’t be his woman, what’s the meaning of staying in the Mu family?

Now it seems Mu Xuri has taken the old man’s former position, his status in this Mu family is evident.

Since Mr.

Xiaojiu doesn’t consider her, she can only hope Mu Xuri will show her more compassion.

At least in the future, in matters of Mr.

Xiaojiu’s marriage, Mu Xuri can have a say.

Ning Anran originally had a lot to say, but unexpectedly, as she just started speaking, she was interrupted by Baili Xia.

Xiaxia has always been like this, always liking to be in the limelight herself, she…

can only helplessly get used to it.

Mu Xuri’s gaze fell on Baili Xia, scrutinizing her.

This girl, he had always known of her existence, but today was truly their first official meeting.

Previously, when she entered with Mu Xiaoyao by her side, he hadn’t paid much attention.

Now, it was truly the first time he properly saw her.

Baili Xia faced the crowd, fearlessly saying, “I am Baili Yang’s granddaughter.”

“What did you say?” Mu Dongyu and Mu Haoguo both stood up, faces full of shock.

“Are you foolish? Admitting you are Baili Yang’s granddaughter at this time, what good does it do you?”

People have acknowledged Ning Anran as Baili Yang’s granddaughter, what is this girl causing trouble for?

“She truly is Baili Yang’s granddaughter, you’ve all wronged me.”

Ning Anran felt at this moment, she had to stand up and say something for herself.

“I’ve always been working for Mr. Xiaojiu, it’s just that none of you knew.”

Ning Anran looked at Mu Dongyu and Mu Haoguo; as for Mu Xuri, his gaze was too sharp, she dared not look.

“I… I stayed by Baili Yang’s side only to get information for Mr. Xiaojiu, this fact both Mr. Xiaojiu and Brother know.”

No one spoke, Mu Xiaojiu simply calmly drank his soup, his expression indifferent.

Mu Xiaoyao was even more unlikely to help her, this woman he always looked down upon.

Although neither spoke.

But because they didn’t speak, everyone could see that what she said certainly wasn’t a lie.

Therefore, Ning Anran is fake; as it turns out, Baili Xia is the real one.
