Tong Qiao's lips curled into a flattering smile. "Chief, why didn't you give me a call before you came?"
Lu Jinshen furrowed his brows. "Call me by my name in the future."
Tong Qiao's smile froze. "Alright, Chief Lu."
Lu Jinshen furrowed his brows but did not insist on how she should address him. "Have you broken up with your boyfriend?"
Tong Qiao wanted to say no so that Lu Jinshen would back off. But at the same time, she was afraid that if Lu Jinshen said that he wanted to meet her boyfriend, it would definitely not work since he knew Yang Ji. She really couldn't find a suitable one in such a short period of time and could only say reluctantly, "We broke up."
"Hmm." Lu Jinshen went silent for a few seconds. "I remember that your birthday is 25th September?"
Tong Qiao did not know why Lu Jinshen was suddenly concerned about her birthday. Was he trying to woo her? "Chief Lu, you're so busy every day. Please don't waste your precious time on me. I'm really not worthy of you …"
"Answer the question," Lu Jinshen's brows furrowed in displeasure as he interrupted Tong Qiao coldly.
Tong Qiao replied, "Yes."
"You'll be 20 on 25th September and meet the legal age for marriage. You'll have a holiday in November. Come back to the capital and we'll get our marriage certificate."
Tong Qiao's bright eyes looked at Lu Jinshen in shock. This man was way too accurate. "Chief Lu, are you really not going to reconsider? Look at me, I'm still young and immature. I like to sleep, play games, shop, and eat snacks. I don't meet the requirements of being a chief's wife at all. If you marry me, you'll only lower your status and destroy the image you've built up over the years. Why don't you consider someone else? "
"1st October, 9am. You'll head over yourself or I'll pick you up?"
She had said so much, but he had not listened to a single word and had already made his decision. This was way too domineering! He was forcing her to resist!
Tong Qiao cleared her throat. "Chief Lu, I can't marry you."
Lu Jinshen raised his eyebrows slightly. "Reason?"
Tong Qiao racked her brains. Boyfriend? No, they had already broken up.
Too young? This man already knew that she would turn 20 on September 25th.
This was cutting off all her escape routes and forcing her to marry him.
Tong Qiao couldn't understand. Although Lu Jinshen was married and had a child, there must be many women who wanted to marry him. After all, he was handsome and had a high status.
Why was he clinging onto her and not letting her go?
Lu Jinshen seemed to know what Tong Qiao was thinking. He suddenly said, "Don't forget, it was your father who first proposed the marriage."
Tong Qiao's face instantly fell. Well, strictly speaking, she was the one who was trying to climb up his social ladder, but … "I don't like you."
"Feelings can be nurtured slowly."
Tong Qiao cursed in her heart. 'Nurture your sister! The problem is that I don't want to nurture it with you! I'm a woman with a man and a child! I can't be a woman!'
"No problem, it's decided then."
Tong Qiao, "…" She had clearly asked a whole bunch of questions, alright? He was the one who refused to listen to a single one of them!
'Alright, you're the big boss. You can do whatever you want.' In any case, by the 1st of October, she would be about five months pregnant and her pregnancy would be obvious. By then, she wouldn't be able to hide it even if she wanted to. She didn't believe that this man would still marry her.
"I'm leaving." With that, Lu Jinshen turned around and walked towards his car.
Instantly, Tong Qiao lost all her appetite as she turned around and walked towards her apartment.
