The Days of Being in a Fake Marriage with the CEO

Mu Huan lifted her eyes and gazed at her father’s retreating figure. The warmth he’d always shower on her after hurting her triggered those wondrous memories of them together.

It just so happened that she felt a little parched in the throat after that, so she downed that cup of watermelon juice in a shot.

Bai Xuexian’s lips curled up in a cold smirk when she witnessed this scene from afar.

Having left behind that sort of evidence after being drugged by her grandma, Mu Huan would always practice caution whenever she returned to the Mu family and would not drink even a single drop of water.

The only person she would never suspect in this family was none other than her father as she knew that he would never intentionally harm her.

Knowing this, even if Mu Dongsheng did not take the lead in bringing his daughter a drink, Bai Xuexian would have somehow found a way to make him do so.

So, his proactiveness had saved her a great deal of trouble.

Her phone beeped right then. It was a message from Lin Qingya, saying that Gu Chenyi had arrived.

She then responded with a “Proceed as planned.”

Her plan involved Lin Qingya finding a way to get Gu Chenyi over while she was drugging Mu Huan, then locking the two up in a room thereafter. When Bao Junyan arrived, she would then get someone to bring him to collect something and accidentally chance upon the adulterous pair.

She had their dating photos in her hand, which was evidence to prove the two were lovers in the past. Like this, Mu Huan would become an immoral woman who cheated on her husband, and this would have nothing to do with the Mus at all. Moreover, knowing that her mother-in-law was on good terms with Bao Junyan’s father, the man would ultimately only divorce his wife and not blame their family in the slightest bit for it.

Even though the Mus would suffer a great loss from no longer being related by marriage with the Baos, she could hardly care about that now. All she knew was that she did not want to lead such a life, so she must never let her stepdaughter become more useful to her mother-in-law!

I must bring her down! No way will I allow her to lead an easy life when I’m suffering!

Of course, she was not honest with Lin Qingya with her plans, lest the latter refuses to do her dirty chores because of her feelings for Gu Chenyi. “All we need to do is lock Mu Huan and Gu Chenyi together in one room and cause Bao Junyan to misunderstand them” was all she told the young woman when, in fact, she had placed a certain incense in the arranged room besides drugging Mu Huan.

Only by resorting to such a method could she get Bao Junyan to divorce Mu Huan!

Having deemed her plan to be a seamless and flawless one, never in her wildest imagination did she expect someone else to be a better schemer than she was!

And that person was Lin Qingya!

Thinking that she had fooled her into bringing Gu Chenyi over, she failed to realize that the young lady never believed her words from the start.

Lin Qingya, meanwhile, wanted to make use of Bai Xuexian’s plans to have sexual relations with the man that night to become his woman and hold him culpable for what had happened.

If she were to drug Gu Chenyi herself and force him to be with her over this matter, he would surely not claim responsibility even if he had bedded her. However, if Bai Xuexian were the mastermind and culprit behind this and she were the victim, surely then, he would take responsibility for her and make her his girlfriend!

Recently, she had been brooding over the issue of pushing her relationship further with the man and becoming his girlfriend. So, Bai Xuexian had very timely delivered an excellent opportunity right to her doorstep!

Lin Qingya brought Gu Chenyi straight to the arranged room after picking him up at the back door.

“Chenyi, just wait here while I go bring Xiao Huan over.” While speaking, she caught sight of a working humidifier in her periphery and knew that it had been drugged.
