Lan Borong nodded firmly and said, "I'm sure!"
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Bai Li Hongzhuang must have some connection with Lan Yunxiao because they looked too similar! He believed that any elder who saw Bai Li Hongzhuang would have the same thought, and the family head would be no exception.
"In that case, you go and investigate Bai Li Hongzhuang's background first."
After receiving Lan Borong's affirmative answer, Lan Hongtai made a decisive decision. Regardless of the ultimate outcome, he wouldn't give up as long as there was a possibility.
Upon hearing Lan Hongtai's words, a smile appeared on Lan Borong's face. "Rest assured, Family Head. I will arrange for someone to investigate the matter immediately. However, our relationship with Wuji Palace has always been bad, so it won't be easy to gather information."
"No rush. Take your time. Remember, you must find reliable people to gather this information and absolutely keep it confidential!"
Many people in the family now stood on Lan Jingkuang's side. If Lan Jingkuang's people were to learn about this news, they would likely take action immediately. Lan Borong had made this mistake in the past, but he wouldn't let it happen again!
"Yes!" Lan Borong immediately responded.
"Family Head, Bai Li Hongzhuang, as the first-place winner of the personal competition in the Battle for Supremacy, will come to our Lan Family and enter the Ice and Snow Divine Pool in three months. You can see her then."
The smile in Lan Borong's eyes widened. He felt that perhaps this was fate helping them. It just so happened that they had offered the Ice and Snow Divine Pool as a reward this time, and Bai Li Hongzhuang happened to be the first-place winner. He believed that after the family head saw Bai Li Hongzhuang with his own eyes, he would believe his judgment.
Upon hearing this, Lan Hongtai's eyes also brightened. "That is indeed good news. Regardless of whether Bai Li Hongzhuang is my granddaughter or not, I will be very happy to see a face so similar to Yunxiao's."
After discussing for a long time, Lan Borong finally left the room.
...
When Lan Qingyan returned to her residence, she had a displeased expression on her face. Especially when she saw everyone wanting to ask her questions, she became even more annoyed. She just wanted to be alone and not deal with anything else.
Seeing Lan Qingyan return, Yue Manlan didn't say a word and entered the house, feeling puzzled. Normally, such days should make Lan Qingyan very happy. She had always been confident in Lan Qingyan, so she didn't go out to greet her today.
Before she could even clearly see Lan Qingyan's figure, the door was already closed.
"Qingyan, what's wrong with you?" Yue Manlan expressed her concern from outside the door.
"Don't bother me. Let me be alone for a while!" Lan Qingyan tossed out a sentence in annoyance and refused to say more. Everything that was happening now was something she didn't want to face.
Upon hearing this, Yue Manlan couldn't help but freeze. She wanted to say more but had no choice but to stay quiet.
Not long after, Lan Jingkuang also returned. Before Yue Manlan could speak, Lan Jingkuang's cold and angry voice resounded, "Where's Qingyan?"
"Qingyan is inside the house," Yue Manlan replied. "Jingkuang, do you know what's wrong with Qingyan?"
Lan Jingkuang snorted, "After performing so poorly in the Battle for Supremacy and still having the nerve to act so displeased when she returns!"
