Like her brother, Jiang Bangyuan could not comprehend what Quan Rui wanted to gain from this question, nor could she figure out what Quan Rui was thinking about. She could only answer him honestly since, after all, Quan Rui had the DNA Paternity Test Results as proof.

“Yes.” Jiang Bangyuan nodded her head. “But she has neither status nor any share of the Jiang Family. She’s only—”

“—A pathetic wretch that nobody wants.”

Quan Rui quickly cut Jiang Bangyuan off before she could finish her sentence.

“Since she is ultimately also a daughter of the Jiang Family, I am still able to fulfill the marriage arrangement made by our fathers with her, am I not?” Quan Rui was not the least bit interested in what Jiang Bangyuan had to say. This whole time, he only cared about getting what he wanted. “Back then, Grand Master Jiang only said that he would betroth the daughter of the Jiang Family to me. He did not state which daughter it had to be.”

With these few simple words, Quan Rui subtly changed the point of contention about the arrangement.

There was pin-drop silence in the room, and everyone struggled to grasp the entirety of what Quan Rui had pointed out.

They looked at each other with stupefied expressions of confusion.

Even Jiang Bangyuan couldn’t begin to comprehend the main point of his suggestion. She looked at Quan Rui rather hesitantly and asked in a trembling voice, “Rui, do you mean that—”

“—Since things have unexpectedly turned out this way and I happened to have also promised Jiang Yuexi that I will not marry you, Jiang Yuexi could also be my betrothed if things develop between us, could she not?” Quan Rui asked with slight amusement. He hazarded a glance at Jiang Hao, who was completely dazed at this point, and he finished by saying, “She may be the one I will marry in future. So, I do not want to hear anyone call her ‘shameless’ anymore.”

After Quan Rui finished speaking, he stood up and left without giving Jiang Bangyuan a backward glance.

The onlookers Quan Rui left behind in his wake were extremely shocked.

“What did we just hear?

“Did Master Quan just say that he isn’t going to marry Jiang Bangyuan? Did he really say that Grand Master Jiang only betrothed one of his daughters to him without ever specifying which daughter it is?

“That’s beside the point! When did Jiang Yuanshan have an illegitimate daughter?

“This— This— This— All of these signs indicate quite clearly that Quan Rui has set his eyes on that illegitimate daughter, don’t they?”

Everyone was struggling to figure out what exactly happened to the union between Master Quan and the Jiang Family and if it was going to be the relationship it was rumored to be.

Jiang Bangyuan was more vexed than all of them put together, and her mind was in turmoil.

“I was supposed to be the mistress of the Quan Family… How did Quan Rui manage to annul our marriage agreement with just a few words after one round of poker?

“What is the meaning of this? Is he serious about wanting to marry Bai Ran, that illegitimate daughter?

“This is really… It’s intolerable!

“He’s pushing things too far!”

Meng Fan had been forgotten by everyone in the midst of this more interesting discussion, and he made full use of their distraction with the arranged marriage between the two families to slip off silently.

“I don’t have two hundred million dollars! There is no way for me to raise this ridiculous sum of money!

“If I don’t slip off now, I’ll be put behind bars for life.”

Quan Rui walked out of the main hall and almost reached the door when he heard the sound of pouring rain as well as the distant but deafening roaring of thunder.

It was raining. To be precise, it was raining heavily.

Luo Wei, who came to stand next to Quan Rui, opened up an umbrella and stood beside him respectfully.

But Quan Rui had no intention of leaving quickly. Instead, he asked, “Where’s Bai Ran?”

“Miss Bai has not yet left. She’s still searching for her ring on the lawn,” Luo Wei replied and pointed to a distant corner of the courtyard.

Quan Rui looked in the direction that Luo Wei was pointing and, sure enough, he could vaguely make out a lean silhouette moving about amidst the downpour.

“Ha…

“Didn’t expect her to be so persistent.”

Quan Rui frowned and took the umbrella from Luo Wei. He made his way across the lawn with his long slender legs and walked through the rain to be with her as quickly as possible.
