However, she felt Liang Feifan's grip on her waist getting stronger and stronger. She felt the pain and subconsciously wanted to struggle, but Liang Feifan's grip did not lessen. Instead, it increased.
Bai Lu didn't want to show too much emotion in front of Xiang Longjin. She gritted her teeth and thought for a moment before saying, "Mr. Ning, you should leave. I don't think I need to say too much to you about this."
Xiang Longjin's expression turned even uglier. He suppressed his anger and couldn't vent it, so his originally cultured and elegant face was almost bleeding at this moment. He didn't give up and asked word by word, "I don't believe you would do that. Tell me yourself, are you really going to marry him? Are you really … going to be my sister-in-law? "
Bai Lu thought it was ridiculous.
What did Xiang Longjin think of her as?
He was the one who betrayed her. Did he really think it was necessary to question her now?
She pursed her lips and then gave a short laugh. Her voice was a little cold. "Mr. Ning, I think you're really thinking too much. In my opinion, I don't need to explain anything to you at all. You should leave."
"If you don't tell me yourself, I won't give up no matter what. Tell me —"
Bai Lu was really a little tired. What was wrong with men these days?
What were they doing pestering her so bitterly? At that time, when she was still Xiang Longjin's label on Bai Lu's body, he hugged Liang Jingxiao and rolled around in bed. Did he ever think about her feelings?
Now, he was standing in front of her like a victim, begging her to give him a quick death …
Ah, can people really be so selfish to this extent?
"Yes, I'm pregnant! I will also marry Liang Feifan and become your sister-in-law, so please don't come looking for me in private in the future! "
She didn't know if she had really made up her mind or if she was angry, but she blurted out these words without thinking.
For a moment, the two men standing next to her had different expressions on their faces.
Liang Feifan's originally tense handsome face suddenly relaxed a lot. Xiang Longjin's expression was even uglier.
In front of Liang Feifan, he couldn't do anything or say anything. Although he was unwilling, he still turned and left.
After Xiang Longjin left, Bai Lu finally realized what she had just said. She was a little upset.
Actually, she wasn't sure about this idea. She really wanted to have the baby in her stomach, but … after marrying Liang Feifan, she had been hiding in this place for three days, she wasn't sure if she really had made this decision or not.
"… Actually, what I said just now —"
"I've heard what you said," Liang Feifan's words, he, he, she, to her to the point.
Just as Bai Lu was about to explain, Liang Feifan had already interrupted her. His hand on her waist slowly moved to her shoulder. He raised his eyebrows and looked down at her. "Have you been staying here for the past three days?"
Bai Lu nodded. She was still thinking about how she should explain what she had just said.
"Your mother lives here alone?"
"Yeah."
"Have you told your mother about us?"
"Yeah."
"I'm sorry, I got someone to investigate you. It's because your phone has been switched off for the past three days that I suddenly rushed over."
"…?"
"Are you ready to go back to City A with me now?"
"…?"
"Raise your head and look at me."
He reached out and gently lifted her chin, looking at her with his dark eyes. Bai Lu's heart thumped wildly. Listening to his deep voice, it seemed to have some kind of magic that could slowly calm her restless heart down.
His voice was exceptionally calm, and it was as rich as red wine that had been fermented for several years. Of course, it also had a hint of seduction.
He said, "I know what you're worried about. This matter happened too suddenly. If you feel that you're not mentally prepared, then neither am I. But you said that you want to be responsible for this baby, and now I'm taking responsibility for him. When I found out that you were pregnant, the Family Liang people already knew about it. They only gave me three days. Now that the time is up, if you don't cooperate with me, it'll be very difficult for me. Do you understand? "
Bai Lu's heart trembled slightly. "… What do I want to do with you?"
The corners of his mouth turned up, and his thumb gently stroked her cheek. Her fair skin felt very good to the touch, and his voice deepened. "Come home with me."
"… Family Liang?"
Liang Feifan nodded. He probably saw the fear in the depths of her eyes, so he pressed on step by step, not giving her any chance to retreat. "I can only fight for this for you. If you don't cooperate with me, it'll be very difficult for me."
Hearing his tone, Bai Lu's heart became more and more uneasy.
She didn't know why she felt that if she didn't go back with Liang Feifan to see his parents, she would almost become a sinner.
If she didn't go, it was obvious that Liang Feifan wouldn't protect her child. But if she went, did it mean that she had already stepped into Family Liang's door?
Getting married with a child …
To think that such a melodramatic thing would actually happen to him.
She gently covered her lower abdomen with her hand. It seemed that she had no choice.
No one would like to be forced to marry Liang Feifan, not to mention that she wasn't prepared at all.
When she left her hometown, she only cared about telling Chin Jin-hee that she was going to visit Family Liang. She didn't immediately tell her that she was going to visit Family Liang because she couldn't bring herself to say it at the moment.
Chin Jin-hee had been very busy with work recently, so she didn't ask much. She just told her to take good care of herself and to let her know immediately once she made a decision.
Bai Lu clutched her phone, feeling uneasy.
Liang Feifan talked on the phone the whole way. It was probably about company matters, so Bai Lu wasn't in the mood to listen. She leaned her head against the car window and stared blankly at the retreating scenery. She kept thinking about what she should say when she saw Family Liang later.
She had never felt that she would feel inferior in front of others, but now, she felt inferior.
In the past, she always felt that the road from her hometown to City A was too far, but today it felt exceptionally close.
In the blink of an eye, they arrived at City A, but they weren't going to meet at Family Liang. Instead, they were going to meet at the most high-end hotel in City A.
When the car drove into the hotel's parking lot, someone was already waiting respectfully at the door. When the car stopped, Liang Feifan got out first. Bai Lu sat in her seat for a long time without moving.
The driver ran over to open the car door for her. Her feet moved a few times, but she couldn't take a step out. She felt as if there was a huge rock pressing down on her chest, as if there was a huge rock in front of her.
She knew that such a rock wasn't something that she could cross as long as she had the courage.
"Do you need me to carry you out of the car?"
Liang Feifan turned around and saw that she was still sitting in her seat. She was hesitant and refused to get out of the car. He turned back and waved his hand, indicating for the driver to leave first. He bent over slightly and extended his hand to her. "Come, I'll hold your hand and bring you in, okay?"
Bai Lu stared blankly at the large palm in front of her. It was so broad and thick, and the lines on his palm were clear. She inadvertently saw his career line and love line.
Two neat lines, all the way to the end.
Bai Lu pursed her lips. She thought optimistically. Actually, his love line was very smooth. Did that mean that if they really got married … they could go all the way to the end?
She moved her fingers slightly. Just as she was about to raise her hand, Liang Feifan couldn't wait any longer. He grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the car.
"Don't think too much. I'm here, aren't I?" His deep voice seemed to give her a great sense of security. Liang Feifan tightened his grip on her hand. Bai Lu instinctively tightened her grip on his hand.
Liang Feifan could feel that she was relying on him wholeheartedly. His thin lips curved slightly, and his eyes sparkled …
After passing through the grand hotel lobby, a waiter led them directly to a private room on the third floor.
Bai Lu held her breath the whole way. She didn't dare to relax.
However, when she entered the private room, she didn't see any of Family Liang's elders. She let out a sigh of relief.
"Go take a seat first. I'll make a call." Liang Feifan gently nudged her waist. He took out his cell phone to make a call. He was probably going to contact his parents.
Bai Lu watched his tall and straight back as he stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. He had one hand in his trouser pocket and the other on his cell phone. The way his thin lips moved was really mesmerizing.
"Hello, Miss."
When the waiter saw that they were seated, he immediately brought over a cup of water. It was a wooden teacup that was slightly bigger. He placed the cup in front of Bai Lu. When Bai Lu saw the water, she actually felt a little thirsty. She didn't think much of it. She took the cup in front of her and tilted her head back to drink.
However, she didn't notice that when she brought the cup to her lips, the expression on the waiter's face changed.
"Miss, this is …"
The waiter looked at Bai Lu with a strange expression. It was as though he was looking at an alien. Bai Lu downed the entire cup in one go. She pursed her lips before looking at the waiter. When he didn't continue speaking, she raised her eyebrows curiously. "What?"
"Miss, this water …"
"It's a little bitter."
Before the waiter could finish his sentence, Liang Feifan's voice came from behind them.
Bai Lu and the waiter both turned around to see Liang Feifan standing by the table. He had already hung up and was holding a cup of water that was identical to the one that Bai Lu had just held. He took a sip and then frowned slightly. He calmly instructed the waiter, "Get me another cup."
