The original owner was a girl with the same name as her, also called Lan Shuang. When she was taken to the Lan family, she had just turned 18 and was considered an adult.
She originally grew up in the slums. Her mother was a florist in a flower nursery, responsible for sorting flowers every day and delivering them to the homes of aristocrats.
Although the earth has fallen for many years, these nobles still retain the habit of appreciating fresh flowers, so they provide jobs for many girls in the slums.
It was because of this job that the original owner's mother had a one-night stand with Lan Ping, the head of the Lan family, and became pregnant with the original owner after being marked.
After she became pregnant, she lost her job as a florist and had to recuperate at home. Lan Ping gave her some money and sent her away, not allowing her to appear in front of him again. The Lan family was wealthy and powerful, and the original owner's mother had no choice but to take the money and give birth to the child. However, not long after, she suffered from postpartum depression and eventually died of depression.
She spent half of the money on her medical treatment. After finding that her mental illness was difficult to cure, she was discharged from the hospital and left the money to the original owner and a neighbor, asking her to help take care of her children.
The neighbor had made a good promise when she was alive, but when she died, the neighbor squandered the money and barely gave the original owner a meal so that she would not starve to death.
The original owner grew up so wildly until he was eighteen years old but still hadn't differentiated. On the other hand, the Lan family had several children differentiated into O level, and their mental power levels were not very high. The best was Lan Bing, who had A-level mental power, but looking at all the major families, this level was really not good enough.
Lan Ping was worried. Although O was precious in the empire, its greatest role was to pass on the family line, combine with A, and then give birth to outstanding offspring who would become the best and leaders in various fields.
However, O itself has weak attack power and special physique, so it can only be raised in a greenhouse. It is suitable for marriage, but if a family wants to prosper, it cannot rely solely on marriage, but must also have a successor, otherwise it will be swallowed up sooner or later.
So Lan Ping began to look for his illegitimate children who were wandering around, to see if any of them had differentiated into A. The original owner who had not yet differentiated obviously also had the potential to become A, so he was naturally taken back.
Lan Ping found all the children, but without exception, they were all O. The original owner was given high hopes. Although most people did not believe that she could differentiate into A, before the results came out, Lan Ping still had great expectations and treated her very well, almost the same as now.
But things did not go as planned. A few days after the original owner was brought back, she degenerated. As expected, she was an O. Lan Ping was greatly disappointed and immediately treated her coldly. He planned to work hard to give birth to a few more children. He paid her money to give away those O children with poor qualifications. When it was the original owner's turn, she found that her mental power level seemed to be very high, so she took her for a check-up, and found that it was actually a precious S+ level.
In the current empire, the highest level is SS, but it has not appeared for hundreds of years. Even the S-level can be counted on one hand, but the original owner's physique is even more special. She is in between the two and is a growth type. If she is nourished by highly matched A pheromones, she will have a great possibility of growing into SS level, and her A mental power will also be greatly improved.
In this way, the original owner immediately became an ultra-rare species, and Lan Ping became excited again. Although O could not inherit the family business, if she was S+ level, she could bring many benefits to the Lan family.
For example, if the child born in the future is to be given to the Lan family, as long as benefits are used as inducement, there is no need to worry about the other party not agreeing.
Lan Ping's calculations went smoothly. After returning, she began to look for a future husband for the original owner. She concealed the original owner's level of mental power from others and hid the person.
Whether the original owner wants to do it or not is completely unimportant and no one cares.
The husband originally chosen for Lan Bing was also taken into consideration by Lan Ping, and Lan Bing could not hide her resentment.
At this moment, the empire's youngest admiral, Nian Siyan, returned from the battlefield with a great victory, destroying the lair of the interstellar pirates in one fell swoop. The federal president went to greet him in person. For a time, he was in the limelight and had a bright future. In addition, he was not from a noble family, so he had a better reputation among the common people.
Many noble families wanted to make friends with this upstart and planned to marry him.
Lan Ping is no exception. Being such a powerful person, yet having no background, is perfect for him.
So he took the initiative to apply for a pheromone matching test.
All federal citizens must register for pheromones after differentiation and enter the pheromone library. A and O have the right to apply for testing to facilitate their search for the most suitable partner. The testing process and results are confidential. Even if the match is very high, they will not be forced to get married.
In addition, this agency is contracted by a certain family, so there is a lot of room for operation. Although its reputation has not been very good in recent years, no other testing agency can shake their position, so Lan Ping still decided to do it here.
Lan Bing heard about this and found her mother. She spent a lot of money and used her connections to exchange her pheromone samples with the original owner. She also forged another report. The final result showed that Lan Bing and Nian Siyan had a 99.9% match, while the original owner was matched with a lame colonel, Zhong Yue, with a match of 87%.
When he saw the report, Lan Ping was disappointed and sighed that although Lan Shuang and Nian Siyan were not highly compatible, Lan Bing was acceptable, so it was not a loss. So he sent the report to Nian Siyan and asked him to come and discuss the marriage.
As for the original owner, she had already anticipated her fate when she saw the test report. On the day Nian Siyan came, the Lan family held a grand banquet, and Zhong Yue was also among them. He came to see his young wife. The original owner dressed up that day, which was rare. Zhong Yue saw at first sight and was very satisfied, so the marriage was settled without any suspense.
But Nian Siyan was not so easy to deal with. He was born in a poor family and was an unwanted child. He had always believed in his own principles since he was a child. He scoffed at these things like pheromone matching. So when he saw Lan Bing and found that he had no feelings for her, he rejected the invitation of marriage.
Lan Ping was so angry that he had a headache. He then looked for Nian Siyan several times, but got the same result every time. So he secretly released the news that Lan Bing and Nian Siyan had a 99.9% match. All parties paid close attention to it, which invisibly put pressure on Nian Siyan.
Zhong Yue was immediately upset when he heard the news, because he had disliked Nian Siyan for a long time, and his leg was also lame on the battlefield. At that time, he and Nian Siyan had a disagreement, and he insisted on launching a sneak attack, but Nian Siyan disagreed. In the end, he almost died in the enemy's trap. It was Nian Siyan who rescued him, but his leg was crippled and his mental strength was affected, so he could no longer go to the battlefield.
Nian Siyan has already become a general.
