In early March, Jiang Wenhao got engaged to Liu Xiangqing. Considering Jiang Wenhao’s health, the engagement banquet was kept small, only inviting important relatives from both families.

Since the Liu Family went bankrupt last year, they’ve re-established their connection with the Jiang Family.

Originally, they were unwilling for Liu Xiangqing to marry Jiang Wenhao, as Jiang Wenhao was not in good health, had mobility issues, and couldn’t inherit the family business.

But the Jiang Family was adamant, and with their daughter being wholeheartedly devoted to Jiang Wenhao, they could only accept defeat.

Reflecting on last year, when they brought Liu Shiyuan to the Jiang Family with arrogance, now they lowered their presence, acting cautiously, fearing they might offend Jiang Jingheng.

After all, it was Jiang Jingheng who disregarded the goodwill between the two families and took action against the Liu Family, while the old man didn’t intervene.

However, today the Liu Family was treated as honored guests, so naturally the Jiang Family extended them some courtesy.

With Jiang Wenhao’s mobility issues and Jiang Yutai away indulging in debauchery, leaving the welcoming of guests to Jiang Jingheng, Mu Yan assisted Yin Manqing in entertaining guests.

No matter her feelings towards Jiang Wenhao, Yin Manqing’s face was filled with joy for her stepson’s engagement, exchanging pleasantries with those around.

Of course, Jiang relatives were still curious about Mu Yan standing beside her.

Though they had heard of Jing Heng’s marriage, they never met his wife, only being told it was a well-matched union.

Everyone was skeptical, although Jiang Jingheng’s background was evident, despite now managing the group, he hadn’t been given any shares.

Any day, the old man might replace him; everyone knew the old man never really liked him.

"Manqing, this girl next to you looks familiar," said a middle-aged woman.

"Yes, seems like someone from the movies," someone else chimed in.

They exchanged glances, realizing the supposed noble was just an actress.

Yin Manqing naturally knew what they were thinking, and slowly said, "Cousin, sister-in-law, sharp eyes. Our Nuannuan is indeed an actress. On screen, she’s known as Mu Yan."

"Really? I thought I was mistaken," the middle-aged woman said with a smile, though showing indifference.

Mu Yan smiled and nodded, pretending not to understand their veiled barbs.

Anyway, her mother-in-law wasn’t easy either, no one could bully her on Jiang territory.

A woman nearby said, "Manqing, I know you initially wanted to find a well-matched noble for Jing Heng, but Mu Yan seems nice and matches well with your Jing Heng."

A bastard child and an actor, indeed a perfect match.

Thinking of a recent project that was halted by Shengyuan Group, causing loss, she was annoyed.

Unfortunately, the Jiang Family’s wealth was incomparable, but she still knew how to wound them.

Yet, Yin Manqing still smiled unchanged, unbothered, "What’s well-matched? Times have changed. The children’s happiness is what’s important."

Mu Yan couldn’t help but glance at her, finding her words insincere.

"Manqing, you shouldn’t say that. The Jiang Family’s huge enterprise is here; without a supportive wife, how can Jing Heng manage? As the saying goes, marry a wise woman, for beauty only dampens a man’s spirit." The middle-aged woman spoke, glancing at Mu Yan disdainfully.

Yin Manqing knew her words targeted Mu Yan and insulted her as well, since she was chosen by Jiang Zhenghong for her looks.

She slightly smiled, "Sister-in-law speaks rightly, I believe Nuannuan can be a good supportive wife as she’s the daughter of the Imperial Capital Zhuang Family."
