No one had informed Su Liang about it. No one wanted Su Liang to appear at their engagement party.

Su Liang only occasionally heard the housekeeper and the others talking about how luxurious the wedding party was going to be. They had booked the entire hall in the most luxurious hotel in the city.

Moreover, it was said that the guests were all famous people. They also said that the young miss was really lucky and had found a good family.

However, every time she finished speaking, she couldn’t help but compare Su Liang who looked like Bai Qing. “Alas, some people have different lives. What’s the use of just resembling them?”

Su Liang was silent every time she heard their snide remarks. She had heard these words too many times. Fortunately, she wasn’t after these things, so she let them talk.

Right now, she only hoped to earn more money and cure her mother’s illness as soon as possible. However, her idea could not be perfectly realized.

Just as she finished her part-time job for the day, Su Liang returned to the villa and received a call from Madam Bai, Lan Piao. “Madam.”

“Su Liang, Su Liang, where are you?” Madam Bai asked anxiously on the other side of the phone.

“I’m at home. What’s wrong?” Su Liang asked, a little confused.

“I’ll send a car to pick you up. Come here immediately.”

After hanging up the phone, Su Liang didn’t have time to think. She changed her clothes casually and was picked up by the car sent to the hotel.

When Su Liang sat in the bride’s dressing room in a daze, she realized that something was wrong.

She looked at Bai Jiang and Lan Piao, who were standing beside her, and asked, “Mr. Bai, what… What’s going on?”

“What do you mean what’s going on? You’re lucky. You’re going to get engaged to Gu Han on behalf of Bai Qing today,” Mrs. Bai said in a scornful tone.

Bai Jiang, who was standing beside her, pulled Mrs. Bai back and said helplessly, “Su Liang, Bai Qing is not feeling well and is still in the hospital. She really can’t attend today.”

“The Bai family has been treating you well, right? You’ll be attending today on behalf of Bai Qing. Don’t worry, I’ll remember your mother’s medical expenses,” Lan Piao said.

Hearing this, Su Liang understood. “Well, how do you want me to replace her? What if Young Master Gu finds out?”

“Don’t worry. He won’t be able to tell since you look so similar after putting on makeup. You just need to keep your mouth shut,” Madam Bai said first.

Having said that, Su Liang had no reason to refuse. After all, her mother’s medical expenses were still in their hands, so she could only nod helplessly.

After seeing Su Liang nod, Bai Jiang and Lan Piao breathed a sigh of relief. With a wave of their hands, the makeup artists all rushed in and began to dress Su Liang up.

The replacement for the engagement was settled, but Bai Jiang’s anger had not yet subsided.

When they arrived at the empty lounge, he started scolding his wife. He no longer had his usual kind and gentlemanly demeanor.

“Lan Piao, look at the daughter you have raised up oh so well. Still going out to fool around with others when it’s time to get engaged. Let me tell you, if anything goes wrong at the engagement party, don’t blame me for chasing you out.”

Lan Piao had been in a bad mood recently. When she heard Bai Jiang’s words, she immediately said angrily, “Bai Jiang, what did you say? Say it again.”

“Alright, now that you’ve grown wings, you’re going to leave us behind, right? Haven’t you forgotten about how you started your business back then?”

Lan Piao did not care anymore. She looked like a shrew and started to speak, “Let me tell you, don’t think that I’m someone to be trifled with. If you provoke me, there will be no winners in our war.”

After he heard Lan Piao’s words, Bai Jiang vomited a mouthful of blood in his heart. He gritted his teeth and did not continue.

For so many years, Bai Jiang had been under the control of Lan Piao’s family. He did not expect that she would still be so arrogant now. It was just that he was now at a crucial moment of the engagement with the Gu family. He could not lose this crucial financial backer, he could only swallow his anger.

Therefore, Bai Jiang swallowed his anger and finally calmed down.

He walked to the front and brought a cup of tea. He handed it to Lan Piao and said, “Honey, have a sip of tea. I’m doing this for the sake of our family.. After all, if we can get engaged to Gu Han, will our family not rise to a higher level?”
