Mo Yunhao had been gallivanting all day and had come back exhausted. Now he was sound asleep at home.
When Jiang Hongying entered, he was lying on the bed like a corpse and snoring.
Jiang Hongying frowned. “Hao Hao, wake up. I have something to discuss with you.”
Mo Yunhao was not pleased to be woken up. “Mother, what is it that can’t wait? It’s not even dinnertime yet! I need more sleep. I’m so exhausted.”
Jiang Hongying frowned. “Why are you so exhausted?”
Mo Yunhao remembered that his mother had asked him to beware Mo Beihan and think of a way to secure his position as the Mo family’s successor, so he said, “Entertaining!”
“Mo Beihan is back in the Mo family, isn’t he? He’s older than me, and my grandparents dote on him. Recently, Mo Beihan has been doing his best to make friends in the capital! I went to visit a few friends to discuss how they can intercept Mo Beihan and prevent him from building connections with anyone important.”
Jiang Hongying immediately understood. She said happily, “Hao Hao, you’ve really grown up. I’m so pleased!”
Mo Yunhao smiled smugly. He did not feel at all guilty that he had actually gone gallivanting with his disreputable friends.
“Don’t worry, Mother! I will definitely deal with Mo Beihan. He’s just a country bumpkin, so how capable can he be? Wait and see. I’ll show him!”
Mo Yunhao had been drinking, and Jiang Hongying’s praise delighted him.
Jiang Hongying was overjoyed. She told Mo Yunhao to wake up because she had an important matter to discuss with him. “Get up, I have something important to discuss with you. I’ve selected a few girls for you. Let’s see which one you’re interested in.”
Her words attracted Mo Yunhao’s interest.
He was an adult and liked women very much. If she was beautiful, that would be even better.
Many of the young ladies he knew were very pretty, and he longed to possess them. But they were all from good families and were not like the girls he dallied with outside.
Now that he was choosing a fiancée, things were different. He wanted to find one that he really liked.
“Mother, who have you chosen?”
Jiang Hongying saw his interest and smiled, “Of course they are the most famous young ladies in the capital. All of them are from illustrious families. But before I tell you who they are, let me say that one of them pleases me the most. That’s the young lady from the Bai family, Bai Youran!”
Mo Yunhao’s eyes immediately brightened at Bai Youran’s name!
“Bai Youran? Mother, are you talking about Bai Youran?”
Jiang Hongying was even more pleased with her son’s expression. Her son seemed to like her too.
“That’s right, Bai Youran. She’s the only daughter of the Bai family. Her father and grandfather both hold high positions, and her older brother is doing well. The Bai family dotes on her. If you marry Bai Youran, then the entire Bai family will be yours.”
Mo Yunhao was very excited.
Bai Youran!
Of course, he knew her. The girl was very well known in his social circle in the capital. She was very pretty, and she came from an excellent family. Many people wanted to marry her!
In the past, he had not known Bai Youran very well and had only heard of her. He did not have much of an impression of her.
Later on, as Bai Youran slowly grew up, he met her a few times and began fancying her as time went by.
What a pretty girl!
After all, she was from an illustrious family, which set her apart from the other women. Mo Yunhao was more than willing to marry Bai Youran!
Mo Yunhao immediately burst out laughing. “Mother, don’t bother telling me about anyone else. I want to marry Youran. Mother, hurry up and propose a match. We’ll get married immediately and have a fat baby by next year.”
