engagement

Jiang Chen was quite happy at the moment, but he did not show it at all.On the outside, all that could be seen was a pitiful face.

"Brother, you are the one who loves me the most in our family, I do not want to marry Miss Mu Rong.Since you are my brother, why don't you marry her?"

Jiang Chen said in a serious tone.

"Ai, brother, it's not that I don't want to help you, but I am just a fostered son.Even if I would've agreed to marry Miss Mu Rong, dad would not let me marry her.This arrangement is prepared specially for you."

Jiang Ru Long said with a helpless expression.But he was laughing in his mind because if Jiang Chen didn't want to marry her, then he would naturally be the one to replace him.

"As long as you agree, I can promise that tomorrow you will be the one who marries Miss Mu Rong!"

Jiang Chen struck his chest as he spoke.

"Really?"

Jiang Ru Long felt really happy.

"Of course."

Jiang Chen said with a large amount of confidence.

"Alright, we are brothers.I will help you this time and marry Miss Mu Rong then."

He replied as if he was doing Jiang Chen a great favor, but on the inside Jiang Ru Long's mind was already thrilled to the max.

"You really are my brother."

Jiang Chen said with a thankful look on his face as if he was going to cry out loud.

"Brother, this is how we will do it.Tomorrow, at the main hall, don't say anything and pretend you know nothing.Let me handle this."

Jiang Chen said.

"No problem, then I shall leave now and let you rest."

Patting Jiang Chen's shoulder before leaving, Jiang Ru Long was wondering how his brother was going to help him with this matter.But, from what he had seen in the past, it was highly possible that this useless brother of his would create a chaotic scene tomorrow.

'Not only will my status be raised in the Mayor's family upon marrying Miss Mu Rong, I will also have a place in the Mu Rong family as well!How stupid is he, turning down the marriage request and asking me to replace him?Nonetheless, he has done something good for me.When I gain enough authority in both families, I will find a way to get rid of him.'

Jiang Ru Long revealed his true colors immediately after leaving the mansion.

On the other side of the mansion, Jiang Chen stood there with a grim smile.'Messing with me?You are going to die because of that.'

The next morning, people were busy decorating the mayor's mansion with ribbons and lights.Today was the day for the engagement ceremony for both families, something that had never happened before in the history of Fragrant Sky city.

"The head of the Mu Rong family has appeared!"

With the loud announcement coming from the guards in the background, a muscular man walked through the main entrance of the mayor's mansion.

This man had a gigantic body, making even the mayor look slim when standing beside him.He appeared to be about forty years old and wearing a flowery robe while walking as strong and brave as a tiger.

He was the head of the Mu Rong family, Mu Rong Zhan.A business tycoon.

"Haha, welcome to my mansion, brother Mu Rong, I hope you enjoy your stay here."

Jiang Zhen Hai said in a friendly manner.Jiang Zhen Hai started walking towards his guest, Jiang Ru Long and Jiang Chen in tow.

"My pleasure, Mayor Jiang.Today is the marriage engagement date for our families.I take this very seriously."

Although Mu Rong Zhan looked bold and forthright, in Jiang Chen's eyes, he was just an old, cunning person.

Jiang Chen looked behind Mu Rong Zhan, but he couldn't see anyone there.Mu Rong Zhan came alone.Of course, this was more than enough.In Fragrant Sky city, there had been almost no events that needed Mu Rong Zhan to attend.But just him coming here alone, he could represent the entire Mu Rong family by himself.

"Please come inside, brother Mu Rong."

With a welcoming gesture, Jiang Zhen Hai led everyone towards the main hall.

Inside the main hall, Jiang Zhen Hai sat opposite of Mu Rong Zhan, Jiang Chen and Jiang Ru Long standing behind h
