Temptation, Lan Jing mad!

Watching the treacherous smile on Lan Qingyan's face, Baili Hongzhuang sneered inwardly.

Compared to the grand gift she had prepared, the Hongmen feast Lan Qingyan had arranged was nothing more than a small scene.

"Let's all raise our glasses and toast to the three heroes, welcoming you all," Lan Borong raised his glass and proposed.

As soon as he spoke, everyone from the Lan family raised their glasses, wearing smiles as they welcomed the arrival of Baili Hongzhuang and the others.

If it weren't for both sides knowing the truth, one might mistakenly think this was a harmonious scene.

Amidst the clinking of glasses, Lan Jingkuang cautiously asked, "It seems that the young Miss Baili is even younger than I expected. Shouldn't she be younger than our Qingyan?"

Hearing Lan Jingkuang's words, Emperor Beichen and his companions understood his intentions.

It seemed that Lan Jingkuang couldn't contain his curiosity any longer and wanted to verify everything as soon as possible.

At the moment Lan Jingkuang asked this question, Lan Borong and the other elders of the Lan family couldn't help but show concerned expressions.

They also wanted to know Baili Hongzhuang's age. Although they were convinced that Lan Yuxuan couldn't have survived, the resemblance of this face before them was too striking, creating an illusion in their minds.

Perhaps everything wasn't as bad as they had previously thought.

Baili Hongzhuang smiled faintly, her pretty face exuding confidence, as she pretended to be unaware, "Oh? I wonder how old Miss Lan is?"

"I'm twenty-two this year," Lan Qingyan's voice was cold, her emotions surging within her.

Until now, she still didn't understand what was happening, why everyone seemed so strange upon seeing Baili Hongzhuang today.

She knew her father's temperament better than anyone else. Why would Lan Jingkuang even bother to consider the age of the other party? It was something he would never care about.

But now Lan Jingkuang was acting out of character, suddenly asking these questions, which was quite unusual.

"That does make you older than me," Baili Hongzhuang replied with a smile.

Upon hearing her response, Lan Jingkuang's expression couldn't help but change slightly. He even wanted to ask if Baili Hongzhuang was nineteen years old, but that would have been too obvious.

After learning that Baili Hongzhuang was younger than her, Lan Qingyan's face revealed a trace of dissatisfaction. This just proved, from another perspective, that her talent in cultivation couldn't compare to Baili Hongzhuang's.

After asking this question, Lan Jingkuang didn't continue to ask other questions. He needed to carefully consider this matter.

Baili Hongzhuang's sudden appearance was too abrupt, and he had no knowledge about her at all.

Making these judgments in such a short period of time was too hasty.

Moreover, besides the striking resemblance in appearance to Lan Yunxiao and Mu Lingbing, there was no other connection between Baili Hongzhuang and them!

However, regardless of whether Baili Hongzhuang had any relationship with Lan Yunxiao, their relationship was inherently hostile!

Lan Jingkuang despised Baili Hongzhuang, and now, seeing her appearance, his aversion grew even stronger!

Because that face reminded him of everything he didn't want to remember!

In fact, that face had already stirred up memories for the elders, including their own disgraceful actions in the past.

"Young Master Beichen, I heard that you and Miss Baili will be engaged soon," Lan Borong asked with a smile.

Emperor Beichen and Baili Hongzhuang were a pair, and this news had been circulating since the Battle of Hegemony.
