Today was Mu Haiyang’s first formal visit to the Shen family home.
Mother Mu had long ago heard from Li Anran’s mother that Anran was interested in playing matchmaker between her son and Shen Yi, the daughter of the Shen family. When she first heard this news, Mother Mu had been truly hesitant.

In Haining City, they were an unshakable, top-tier existence. Even for Anran—a provincial governor’s daughter—marrying into the Shen family was considered "marrying up," so her own family’s status was hardly worth mentioning.
