"… Mom, I- I'm very sorry. I did something wrong, but I have to take responsibility for my actions now. So I've decided to get married. "She gritted her teeth and finally told her the whole story.
Chin Jin-hee's expression finally changed.
Bai Lu was a little flustered, but since she had already said so much, it was naturally difficult to take back the water that had been spilled. In the end, she said, "Mom, I really didn't expect that man to be Liang Jingxiao's brother … But he's always been very good to me, so I didn't dare to think too much about it. But the child in my stomach is already more than two months old. I can't abandon this child. Although it hasn't fully formed yet, I can already feel its presence. I can't do something like abandon my child."
Chin Jin-hee reached out to pick up the chopsticks on the side, picked up a piece of egg and held it in front of Bai Lu. She said, "Look, you made this egg yourself. It looks and smells good, but when you eat it yourself, you'll realize that you added too much salt. It's very salty. But since you've already made it, you can only eat it, even if it doesn't taste good at all. " "Liang Liang, it's not that I don't agree with you getting married, nor am I asking you to give up your child. I'm a nurse and I understand the value of life. But you have to think about this carefully. Family Liang is the most prosperous and wealthy family in A City. Our Bai family is really poor. I'm not belittling my daughter, but people in this world are always worldly. The last thing I want to see is you suffer. "
Bai Lu felt a lump in her throat. Chin Jin-hee's words hit the nail on the head.
How long could a loveless marriage last?
He stood so high and so far away from her. In front of her was a flight of stairs. It was too difficult to get close to him.
Because those were the stairs she couldn't cross.
Her mother was right. When the time came, she would be very tired and would have to be reborn.
Not only did she have to face Liang Jingxiao, but she also had to face Xiang Longjin and Family Liang's complicated interpersonal relationships.
Once she entered a wealthy family, it was as deep as the sea.
Was she really going to walk this endless path?
"You've been a very assertive child since you were young. Mom never questioned any of your decisions. Including this time, the most important event in your life. " Qin Zhenxi slowly cleaned up the tableware on the table. Her tone was still calm. "Think about it carefully. If you want to hear my opinion, I don't agree with this marriage, but the final decision is in your hands. No matter what decision you make, I will support you. "
Bai Lu said with red eyes, "Thank you, Mom."
Chin Jin-hee smiled and said, "Go to the back of the mountain tomorrow and see your father. Maybe he has something to say to you." He then looked at her flat abdomen, and his usually cold eyes softened a little. "Do you have any reaction in the early stages of pregnancy?"
Bai Lu shook his head and said that there was no reaction. Everything had been fine recently.
Chin Jin-hee asked her to stay here for a few more days. It would not be too late for her to go back and make a decision after she had thought it through.
Bai Lu stayed here for three days.
She turned off her phone, so no one could contact her. Every day, she accompanied Chin Jin-hee to work in and out of the hospital. Because Chin Jin-hee was an old employee and had grown up in the area, many people in the hospital knew her.
Bai Lu loved to go to the obstetrics and gynecology department on the fifth floor. For the past two days, just looking at the newborn babies warmed her heart. Perhaps she had been hesitant in the past, but looking at those little angels who had been born, she felt as though the heavens had endowed her with infinite power so that she had the ability to fight against all the impossibilities.
"Bai Lu, so you're here."
When Bai Lu heard this, she turned around and saw a young nurse who had always been with her mother. She rushed over and tugged at her and said, "Someone is looking for you. He's downstairs. Hurry up and go take a look."
Bai Lu frowned and asked, "Who is it?"
The young nurse waved her hand and said, "I don't know him, but it's a man."
Bai Lu's heart skipped a beat. The first person that came to mind was Liang Feifan.
He had previously said that he would give her two days to consider this matter, but she had already snuck over to her hometown to stay for three days. Based on his personality, it would not be strange at all for him to come looking for her.
Bai Lu really thought that the person who had come was Liang Feifan, but this time, she guessed wrong.
"Bai Lu, I knew you were here!"
As soon as Xiang Longjin saw Bai Lu, he went forward and grabbed Bai Lu's hand without any explanation. He dragged her away and said, "Come with me. I have a lot to tell you —"
"Let go!"
Bai Lu struggled with all her might. Xiang Longjin's eyes flashed as he looked at her. In the end, he really did let go of her wrist. "I have something to tell you. Come with me to a quiet place, okay?"
"Mr. Ning, if you have something to say, just say it. There's no need to go to a quiet place. I think this place is good enough."
Xiang Longjin was a little helpless. He looked around and saw that there was not much traffic in the hospital at this time of the day. After thinking about it, he said, "Bai Lu, Family Liang has already spoken … You, are you really pregnant with Liang Feifan's child? Why are you — "
"You came here just to talk about this?" Bai Lu coldly interrupted Xiang Longjin. The corners of her mouth curved into a sarcastic smile. "Are you here to confirm if I'm really pregnant? Or are you here to question me? "
"I don't have the right to question you." Xiang Longjin lowered his eyes and said bitterly, "I know I was the one who wronged you in the beginning. I don't have the right to question you. But Bai Lu … Jingxiao said that you were pregnant for two months. That was after we broke up. You … you and Liang Feifan … "
In Xiang Longjin's heart, Bai Lu was like a noble lily. He had dated her for so many years, and the deepest relationship they had had was a kiss. But now, she was pregnant before marriage, and it was after they had broken up …
Men always thought that the woman they had once had belonged to them, and Xiang Longjin was no exception.
Although he knew very well that Bai Lu no longer belonged to him and that he had abandoned her with his own hands, he also knew that he had never stopped loving her.
A man could clearly distinguish between his heart and his nature. He loved Bai Lu, so when he found out that Bai Lu was pregnant with Liang Feifan's child for two months, he almost broke down.
Why? They had dated for so many years, but she had never been willing to give the complete her to him. But now, she could give it to someone else.
"Bai Lu, I don't believe you're that kind of person. Two months ago, you and Liang Feifan had nothing to do with each other …" He paused and suddenly looked up. His eyes emitted a strange light. Ignoring Bai Lu's objections, he grabbed her hand. "Are you doing this to take revenge on me? Is that right? You got together with Liang Feifan to take revenge on me, didn't you? Bai Lu, I've never forgotten you. Don't humiliate yourself like this. Liang Feifan isn't sincere to you. We don't want your child anymore. I won't marry Liang Jingxiao. We — "
"Let go of her hand!"
A deep and resounding voice suddenly cut in, and a series of steady footsteps gradually approached.
Xiang Longjin and Bai Lu turned their heads in unison. From afar, they saw Liang Feifan wearing a black coat with a large lapel, a pair of close-fitting pants of the same color, and a pair of casual leather boots. They were used to seeing him in formal wear. Today, he was dressed so casually that it was even more pleasing to the eye.
However, his handsome face wasn't very pleasing to the eye. From afar, Bai Lu could see his slightly furrowed brows and his cold gaze sweeping over them. The usual calmness and restraint on him had long been replaced by a murderous aura. Xiang Longjin probably didn't expect to bump into Liang Feifan here.
The moment he was stunned, the woman in front of him had already been moved.
Liang Feifan directly reached out, grabbed Bai Lu's waist, and pulled him into his arms. His gaze was as cold as ice, and his words were merciless.
"I really hope that I didn't hear anything just now. Xiang Longjin, who do you think you are? Or rather, who do you think our Family Liang is? You're going to have your wedding with Jingxiao next week. What are you doing now? "
Xiang Longjin still felt a little guilty.
However, he was a man. In front of the woman he loved, he was questioned by his "rival in love" in such a contemptuous tone. He only felt that his dignity as a man had been seriously challenged. He simply couldn't remain indifferent.
"Whether we get married or not, it's between me and Jingxiao! As for what I'm doing now, that's between me and Bai Lu. " Xiang Longjin secretly took a deep breath, raised his head, and looked into Liang Feifan's eyes. From the corner of his eye, he glanced at Liang Feifan's hand on Bai Lu's waist. The fire of jealousy in his heart burned even more vigorously. "Mr. Liang, no matter how powerful you are, you can't so recklessly interfere with other people's privacy. Bai Lu and I …"
"Who are you to call Bai Lu by that name?" Liang Feifan couldn't be bothered to listen to him say so much. He habitually curled the corners of his lips into a cold smile and said word by word, "Before you try to assert your rights to me, you have to understand something first."
He stretched out his hand and pointed at the woman in his arms. "She is your future sister-in-law. You can call her Miss Bai now, or you can choose to call her sister-in-law. The only thing you can't call is her name!"
Xiang Longjin and Bai Lu had been dating for so many years, and the two of them had been preparing to get married. Even though he had betrayed Bai Lu first, he couldn't accept calling his ex-girlfriend sister-in-law now.
He looked very reluctant as he tightly grasped his hands by his sides. His tone was stiff as he asked Bai Lu, "… Are you really going to marry him?"
