Kapitel 8: Big Lady Boss Is No. 1 (8)

"Yusheng you have really done well this time!" Mama Long praised the couple, "I and Papa Long will definitely welcome Yin'er into the Long family, you two only need to convince Matriarch Long and Patriarch Long..." Mama Long was very happy with this daughter-in-law. It's just that the Matriarch and Patriarch were stricter and held higher expectations of the next generations female head. That's when the second Cannon Fodder comes in, Hao Suyin.

Bai Suyin had actually been betrothed to Long Yusheng since birth. In the original novel she appeared a few chapters before Luo Huiyin's death but wasn't too important. Later on when the Matriarch and Patriarch had found out that Yusheng was chasing Mu Weisheng's woman, they immediately forced them to marry. But how could the novel allow the second lead be with someone else other than the female lead in peace? Exactly a day after the wedding the military had come to arrest Long Yusheng. Bai Suyin could only live the rest of her life as a widow, who would dare to marry a woman whom was the wife of a tyrant like Long Yusheng?

Even though Bai Suyin was picked by the Matriarch and Patriarch themselves, Mama Long still didn't like the girl. She was just like her name, "white plain unadorned sound", P.L.A.I.N! Bai Suyin had an extremely slim stature with no curves in sight, boring features and her personality... Rude! Arrogant! Wilful! Spoiled rotten! Plus she held no regard for seniority, she was only good to the Matriarch and Patriarch.

In C country there were five major families, in order; Mu, Long, Sima, Gong and Bai. The Bai family were part of the top five families hence why the senior heads of the Long family were willing to accept her. Initially, they wanted to have a daughter from the Mu family marry into the Long family, however, just like the Long family they only birthed males and they weren't very close with the Mu family anyway. The Mu family were the self-righteous type, so considering the industry the Long family dabbled in they couldn't mix. The Long family were fairly close with the Sima family but their young miss was paired with Yusheng's younger brother. The Gong family were close with the Mu family and shared similar righteous views, it wouldn't work. They were just like oil and water.

"En. Yes, mother, we'll listen to you." Yusheng helped Huiyin put the dishes away and pack up the leftovers, Huiyin had overcooked.

"Mother, why don't you stay the night? It's already late, outsiders would call us unfilial if we let you go back now..." Mama Long grew increasingly satisfied with Huiyin, so considerate! If it were Yusheng he would just ask his driver to send get back...

Yusheng felt a warm feeling settle in his chest as she referred to them as "us" and "we". It was nice that she was accepting her place at his side so naturally. What was this feeling?

"Alright, since you've insisted! I'll have to trouble you!" Mama Long cheerful accepted. If Yusheng can keep such a good woman by his side, she could die with no worries, at least she'd know her son is in good hands.

"No, no trouble at all! Mother, please wait here so I can arrange your room." Huiyin went to prepare a room for Mama Long.

"Long Yusheng, come let's talk." It was true that Mama Long liked Huiyin but she wouldn't disregard her son's happiness if he didn't like her. She just hoped that Huiyin's pregnancy was not the only reason why he was marrying her.

"Mother?"

"Tell me honestly, are you marrying Huiyin only because of the child." He hesitated a bit. Out of Yusheng's parents, he was closer to his mother, even though he respected her a lot he didn't want her to dislike Huiyin because she drugged him. Huiyin was still a decent person to some degree, as decent as a person who has drugged some before, can be.

"No mother, this situation was actually my fault. She's liked me since she started High School, so I should take responsibility! Besides... Huiyin is a decent girl as well..." Huiyin who heard this as she was coming down the steps was mildly annoyed. After all her effort she only has a 'decent'? So she had to work extra hard for him to love her
