"You mean, Lan Yanfeng wants to get married?" Lan Ziye asked in surprise.
When did the Lan family need to use marriage to expand their family power?
"That's perfectly normal!" Chu Xixuan said matter-of-factly. "In the past, the Lan family was the last of the five great families, and they had no daughters to marry into other families to consolidate ties. So, naturally, the other four families were reluctant to marry their legitimate daughters into the Lan family. After all, marrying off a legitimate daughter meant marrying off one less, so they all had to calculate the pros and cons before marrying off. Over time, the other four families grew closer, while the Lan family was isolated!"
It’s not because the Lan family is open-minded and allows children to freely choose their marriage partners, but because no legitimate descendants of the five major families are willing to marry into the Lan family?
Lan Ziye was shocked by this fact, but when he thought about it, with the second, third, and fourth candidates to marry, who would be willing to marry into the fifth brother's family?
Chu Xixuan saw that Lan Ziye's expression had eased a little, as if he had figured it out. He continued, "Now that the Jin family is showing goodwill, even though Jin Ruorui is a little younger, it's undeniable that she is currently the most outstanding daughter of the Jin family. The Jin family is also very sincere."
"You mean, there is a high possibility that Lan Yanfeng and Jin Ruorui are the ones?" Lan Ziye asked.
"Well! If nothing unexpected happens, there shouldn't be any problem!" Chu Xixuan said seriously.
"What about Xiaobai? How should I tell Xiaobai?" Lan Ziye felt so embarrassed!
Chu Xixuan turned to look at Lan Ziye and said, "I think if you really care about Xiaobai, you should let him give up this idea! After all, without Jin Ruorui, there are women from other big families, but the future wife of the Lan family's head cannot be Xiaobai!"
Lan Ziye sighed.
Chu Xixuan suddenly had an idea and said, "I think Xiaobai and Su Muhan are a good match. You can try to bring them together!"
"Forget it!" Lan Ziye curled his lips and said helplessly, "You don't know that Su Muhan and Xiaobai are enemies. If they meet, it's good enough that they don't fight to the death!" Three thousand years ago, if it weren't for Xiaobai, the little fox probably wouldn't have run away from home, right?
Chu Xixuan thought for a moment and said, "Forget it then!" After a pause, Chu Xixuan continued, "Stay away from Su Muhan from now on. He... is very dangerous!"
This time, Lan Ziye didn't refute, but nodded in agreement: "Yeah! I know what I'm doing!"
Chu Xixuan said nothing more!
The next day, as soon as Lan Ziye entered the classroom, Lan Rongrong, Zhu Ning and Zhu Fei came over.
"Big news, big news!" Lan Rongrong said excitedly.
Lan Ziye looked at Lan Rongrong in confusion.
Lan Rongrong quickly pulled out her phone and showed it to Lan Ziye, saying, "Don't you even read the news? The Jin family has published an announcement severing all ties with Jin Ruoxi!"
Lan Ziye took Lan Rongrong's phone and took a look. Sure enough, it was a statement from the head of the Jin family.
"Front page headlines, I estimate this news will be at the top of the hot search list for at least a year. Probably only your marriage to Chu Xixuan can suppress it!" Zhu Fei also said happily.
Lan Ziye returned the phone to Lan Rongrong and said calmly, "Jin Ruoxi colluded with the demon clan, so it's normal for the Jin family to declare that they have severed ties with her! What's so strange about that?"
"Did you know this a long time ago?" Lan Rongrong asked Lan Ziye with an exaggerated expression.
Lan Ziye smiled faintly and walked straight to his seat without saying a word.
Lan Rongrong turned to look at Zhu Ning and Zhu Fei, then at Lan Ziye, wondering, "Isn't she happy about this kind of celebration?"
