However, there was no way to add her name before the house loan was paid off. Thus, she could only suffer in silence.
Chen Shu treated the girl who loved him wholeheartedly like that, and now he was using the same trick to deal with her. He was really treating everyone else as fools.
Jiujiu rejected Chen Shu directly, "Chen Shu, I'm not a fool. Once we get the marriage certificate, we'll be legally married. By then, if your family doesn't want to add their name, I can only suffer in silence. So, I don't mind going to the notary office for justice, nor do I mind spending that sum of money. I just want a name. It's best if you're willing, but if you're not …"
Jiujiu paused and glanced at Chen Shu, saying, "A three-legged toad is hard to find, but a two-legged man is?"
After Jiujiu finished speaking, she left without looking back.
Chen Shu did not expect that after he said that, Jiujiu would still reject him and even say that a two-legged man was hard to find.
Chen Shu was so angry that his chest heaved up and down, and he could not say a complete sentence for a long time.
Chen Shu did not dare to persuade his mother, so he could only look for Jiujiu.
However, Jiujiu was determined to break up with Chen Shu.
Chen Shu coaxed Jiujiu in the beginning until he almost knelt down in front of her. Seeing that Jiujiu was still unwilling to reconcile with him, Chen Shu shed all pretense of cordiality in the end. He pointed at Jiujiu's nose and scolded Jiujiu for being a money-grubbing, cold-blooded, heartless woman who did not care about old relationships.
In response to Chen Shu's accusations, Jiujiu directly slapped him twice.
Jiujiu looked at Chen Shu who was covering his face in disbelief and said, "These two slaps are for Su Mo. One is for her youth that was fed to the dogs, and the other is for her sincerity."
After Jiujiu finished speaking, she did not look at Chen Shu anymore and left immediately.
Jiujiu's action of not looking back scared Chen Shu. Chen Shu thought about it and finally went back to his father to ask for advice.
Chen Shu's father pondered for a long time and finally came up with an idea.
Most women were sharp-tongued but soft-hearted. The harsher their words were, the softer their hearts were. Although Jiujiu's words were straightforward, in fact, she was still thinking about Chen Shu in her heart. As long as Chen Shu pestered her a few more times, everything would be fine.
Chen Shu thought about it. The next day, he bought 99 red roses that he had never been willing to buy. He gritted his teeth and spent more than 4000 yuan on a diamond ring. He was ready to go to the company to propose to Jiujiu.
Chen Shu brought the roses to the company with great momentum, causing many female colleagues to envy Jiujiu.
Seeing the performance of his female colleagues, Chen Shu was even more certain that he would be able to bring Jiujiu back this time.
But soon, Chen Shu couldn't smile anymore.
One minute, two minutes, thirty minutes, one hour.
Jiujiu, who usually went to work on time, was actually so late today.
The idea of a proposal was good, but if there was no female lead, it would be useless.
Chen Shu panicked instantly and went to find Jiujiu's leader to ask about the situation.
Jiujiu's leader: "Su Mo resigned in the middle of the month. Didn't you know?"
After answering Chen Shu's question, Jiujiu's leader muttered in his heart. Since Chen Shu was ready to propose, how could he not know that Jiujiu had resigned? That shouldn't be the case.
Although he was puzzled, Jiujiu's leader said, "Why don't you give Su Mo a call and ask?"
Chen Shu suppressed the doubts in his heart and took out his phone to call Jiujiu.
The phone rang twice and was picked up. After a lot of noise on the other side of the phone, he heard Jiujiu's voice: "What's the matter?"
Jiujiu's voice was no longer as gentle as before. It was cold as if she was talking to a stranger.
Chen Shu's voice was gentle: "Momo, why didn't you tell me about your resignation?"
Jiujiu pulled her luggage into the elevator and complained: "Didn't you also not tell me that your mother was so mean?"
"Su Mo …" Hearing Jiujiu mention his mother again, Chen Shu said angrily: "You're not allowed to talk about my mother like that. My mother worked so hard to raise me. She suffered a lot and it wasn't easy for her."
"Heh …" Jiujiu laughed mockingly: "Your mother didn't have it easy to raise you, but it was easy for me to live this long. Chen Shu, you're saying it as if it was easy for anyone."
Jiujiu's tone became firm and Chen Shu softened instantly: "That's not what I meant. I'm just a little anxious. Moreover, I prepared a surprise for you today. I waited for you the whole morning and didn't see you. I was really worried about you, so I'm like this. Where are you now? I'll go and find you, okay?"
Jiujiu: "I resigned. You know that, right?"
Chen Shu: "I know."
Jiujiu chuckled: "Not only did I resign, but I'm also preparing to leave this place. Did you know?"
"What?" Chen Shu was shocked and asked as he ran out: "Where are you going? What about our marriage?"
"With your parents' attitude, I don't think it's a good idea to accept this marriage. As for where I'm going, we've already broken up. You don't have to worry about it."
Jiujiu's words of breaking up were like a basin of cold water splashed directly on Chen Shu's head. Chen Shu's running footsteps also came to a halt.
Chen Shu's voice was low and filled with disappointment, like a puppy that was abandoned by its owner: "But, but I love you so much. It hasn't been easy for the both of us for a year. Are you really going to give up our relationship for so long just because of this?"
Chen Shu's words coupled with his despondent tone really made one's heart ache.
However, Su Mo's lesson had already taught Jiujiu that Chen Shu was really pitiful when he pretended to be pitiful, but after being pitiful, he was really heartless.
Jiujiu chuckled: "You're not even willing to fight for a name for me, and you still have the nerve to say that you love me?"
Chen Shu: "I know that my parents are in the wrong. Who doesn't write a girl's name when they get married and buy a house? But, you have to know that my mother has a bad temper. My parents quarrel all day long, and my mother has been crying for the past two days. She looks like she's aged by more than ten years. As her son, I can't continue to say anything. I can't possibly force them to commit suicide. They've worked so hard to raise me up, and I can't do such an unfilial thing.
Jiujiu was silent for a moment before saying: "Then, what do you think we should do?"
Chen Shu once again brought up his father's idea: "Why don't we register our marriage first? After that, my mother will be happy and be willing to add your name to the house?"
Jiujiu still thought that Chen Shu would have a bright future. She didn't expect that after all that talk, he would still talk about registering their marriage.
Jiujiu sneered and made a final conclusion about her relationship with Chen Shu: "Impossible. Moreover, we're not married yet. Your parents don't take me seriously. Do you really think that I can believe that someone who didn't take me seriously before marriage will take me seriously after marriage?"
