“Does this mean that you acknowledge that Jiang Yuexi is your sister and a member of your family?” Quan Rui’s voice somehow silenced all the others in the room.
As he spoke, he casually tossed out the documents he had been holding onto for some time now and they landed on the table right in front of Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao was stunned for a moment and looked down without thinking. He realized that a DNA paternity test report was the first sheet of paper in the thin stack before him.
“This…
“This is the report that indicates Jiang Yuanshan is Bai Ran’s biological father…
“Quan Rui… How did you manage to obtain this?”
After a moment of hesitation, Jiang Hao picked up the copy of the paternity test report, and his expression altered slightly.
Even Jiang Bangyuan realized that something was amiss here. She quickly leaned over her brother’s shoulder to take a look at the report and she froze as well.
“Rui, why are you still being so intimate with her when you already have this evidence? Don’t you have any respect for our prenatal betrothal?” Jiang Bangyuan gritted her teeth. She genuinely had no idea what Quan Rui hoped to achieve by doing this.
Initially, she had no intention of fighting head to head with Quan Rui publicly, he was too intense in his methods of handling affairs.
But she knew that if she did not step forward and speak up now, the people present here would say she was a pushover and that she had no backbone of her own.
“And this darned wench, Bai Ran! Heaven knows when she began to seduce Quan Rui and curry favor from him!”
Before Bai Ran could even be affected by Jiang Bangyuan’s accusations of her, Jiang Hao took over from his sister and began to kick up a fuss once again.
“Bai Ran, how are you a daughter of the Jiang Family like this? You even dared to seduce your eldest sister’s betrothed! Have you no sense of shame at all?” From the very beginning, there was no question that Jiang Hao would side with his sister, Jiang Bangyuan, at all times, no matter what.
Being insulted was a usual occurrence to Bai Ran, so she did not feel particularly angry about the situation. But she noticed the change in the way Jiang Hao now attacked her, and could not help but sneer at him coldly.
“So now you acknowledge me as a daughter of the Jiang Family?”
“But you have never treated me like a member of your family for the past ten years!
“Ha, what empty talk! All you know how to do is twist whatever facts are in your possession to benefit yourself.”
Bai Ran narrowed her eyes at them. Not only did she refuse to get up from Quan Rui’s thighs, but she also brazenly leaned further into Quan Rui’s embrace. Then, to make it more obvious, she reached out her arm and hooked her fingers around Quan Rui’s neck.
She spoke to him loud enough for everyone to hear, “Master Quan, you promised me just now. You said you will call off your marriage to Jiang Bangyuan if I win. Do you remember your promise?
“Since they think so highly of me and even call me shameless, let’s show them what shameless really is!
“We’ll see who will get the last laugh!”
“Of course, I remember it clearly.” Quan Rui went along with Bai Ran’s ploy and nodded his head earnestly. He found it very agreeable the way this enticing young woman in his arms clung to him of her own free will.
She was very slim in his lap. He could barely feel her weight as he held her in his arms.
At the same time, her body was very soft. He could feel her warmth, the fragrance of her skin, and her flesh as she pressed against him… He was becoming too quickly addicted to the scent of her.
Bai Ran smiled at Quan Rui’s reply, then turned to look at Jiang Bangyuan. She shrugged her shoulders helplessly. “So sorry. Master Quan has said he won’t marry you. How can you possibly make that ridiculous claim that I’m snatching away your fiancé?”
Bai Ran was aware that the only thing Jiang Bangyuan had of worth to brag about was her marriage agreement to Quan Rui.
“Now that the marriage agreement has fallen through, there’ll be nothing left for her to boast about!”
Jiang Bangyuan was completely enraged by Bai Ran’s exchange with Quan Rui. She stared at Quan Rui accusingly. She was not going to accept anything the wench said. He had to tell her what the situation was himself.
“Rui? What’s the meaning of this? Our parents arranged our marriage from the very beginning, how can you just—”
“It was indeed fixed by our parents. But…as you’ve seen, Ranran won. I need to fulfill my promise to her,” said Quan Rui simply in an extremely innocent tone.
