Chapter 325: Not Born to be Ignored

Father Du's face turned pale and red after hearing what Lin Anan said. He wanted to refute, but he was too stupid to speak.

Lin Zihuai's eyes were red. "Uncle Du, I can assure you that I will use all my heart to take care of Du Juan and let her live a good life. I hope you will give us a chance."

Father Du's face was as gloomy as water, and his thick brows were tightly knitted together.

Lin Anan sat down again and slowed down his tone, "Uncle Du, I believe that the soldiers of our Northwest Military Region are all highly conscious and well-behaved.

Let's stop talking in anger and talk calmly. Marriage is a good thing. Dujuan is your child after all, and you must want her to live a good life."

Lin Anan knows exactly what Du's father is thinking!

Do you think he really doesn't know Du Juan's life over the past ten years? No, he actually knows it better than anyone else, but he just doesn't want to care.

With the experience of Dujuan's mother as a lesson, he must cherish his current life very much, with a lovely wife by his side and two sons and daughters.

Jiang Bilan thinks Du Juan is an obstacle, but isn’t he one too?

The fact that he can sit here and discuss at this moment is just to weigh the pros and cons.

Even if he agreed, he would have trouble explaining to Jiang Bilan.

If he didn't agree, Captain Xu would just give him a cold shoulder.

At this time, the sound of Jiang Bilan deliberately throwing the spatula came from the kitchen, obviously reminding Du's father.

Captain Xu sighed softly and said, "Old Du, we are all doing this for the good of the child. How about this? We invite the Fan family over and explain the matter to each other face to face.

We can also discuss the issue of the betrothal gift, so that your family will not suffer any loss, and Du Juan will not be wronged. What do you think?"

Father Du hesitated for a moment, but finally shook his head, "Everything has a first come first served basis..."

Before he could finish his words, Du Juan interrupted him, "Dad, let's break up the engagement."

Father Du was like being struck by thunder. He was completely stunned. He stared at Du Juan with wide eyes, as if he couldn't believe his ears. "You...what did you say?"

Du Juan's eyes were red, but she bit her lower lip stubbornly to prevent the tears from falling. "Dad, I want to break up with you. You know what kind of life I have lived in this family for so many years. I thought you at least cared about the father-daughter relationship, but now it seems that I was expecting too much.

That's right, I'm not a respectable person, and I can't be used as a pawn by you and your stepmother. Since you value the marriage of the Fan family so much, let Erya marry, isn't it the best of both worlds?"

"Dujuan! I've raised you in vain all these years!" Father Du shouted angrily.

Du Juan smiled bitterly, "Yes, you didn't raise me well, so I am inferior to Erya and my younger brother in every way. I am so bad... this family doesn't even have a bed for me or a set of dishes and chopsticks.

I really envy Arya, she not only has a room, but also a study, wears the most beautiful new clothes, receives the best education, and has her father's love."

"Shut up! Is there not enough food or clothes for you at home? Aren't you wearing your sister's clothes? Why are you saying such things now..."

"But Dad, Arya is much younger than me, and her clothes... are very short for me. Didn't you notice?"

"you!"

"I wasn't born to be ignored."

Seeing that Du Juan was shaking all over, Lin Zihuai patted her back gently to comfort her.

He looked up at Father Du, his eyes full of anger and disappointment, "Du Juan is kind, brave, and independent, but you never appreciate her goodness. She just wants happiness of her own now, how can you be so cruel?"

Lin Anan looked at Du Juan deeply.

She arranged this dish beautifully.

Lin Anan knew that she and everyone else were being used, but she wasn't angry at all.

It's a good thing that the little girl is willing to fight for it and is smart.

Now that things have come to this, it's no longer just a matter of marriage.

Mother Lin couldn't help but speak, her eyes reddened, "Brother Du, you have seen all the grievances Du Juan has suffered in this family over the years. Which child doesn't want the love and care of their parents, but how much did Du Juan get? Can you really bear to watch her leave with so much pain all over her body?"

Captain Xu shook his head and said, "Old Du, listen to my advice. Don't let your child down at this critical moment."

Father Du's face turned very ugly, his hands were clenched into fists, his knuckles turned white, and his heart was shaken.

Seeing that things were not going well, Jiang Bilan walked over quickly, sat down next to Father Du, and patted him on the back, "Don't be angry, don't be angry, you haven't been in good health since you came back from the injury last time!

I've said it before, some people are impossible to tame, and will turn against us sooner or later. Now that you have outsiders backing you up, you dare to be so angry with you."

Du Juan looked at Jiang Bilan quietly, without a trace of fear in her eyes, only feeling disgusted.

Father Du's eyes, which had just softened, became cold again.

Captain Xu sighed heavily, "Old Du, if you continue to be stubborn, you will really lose your daughter. Think about it carefully!"

When Captain Xu pointed a finger at him, a trace of struggle flashed in Du's father's eyes, and his gaze shifted back and forth between Jiang Bilan and Du Juan.

He was very conflicted. On one side was his wife, with whom he had lived for many years, and on the other side was his own biological daughter. He didn't know how to choose.

Just then, there was a sudden noise outside the door.

It turned out that someone from the Fan family received the news about Jiang Bilan and rushed over.

Fan Xinhe rushed in aggressively, followed by everyone from the Fan family.

As soon as Mrs. Fan entered the room, she shouted, "You Du family, what do you want to do? Not only did you cause my mother to be detained by the law enforcement team, but now you want to go back on the agreed marriage? Do you really think that we Fan family members are made of clay?"

Captain Xu stood up and asked, "Who let this person in? Where are the guards at the gate of the compound?"

Lu Qing was also amused. "Needless to say, Comrade Jiang must have invited us here to 'reason'."

Jiang Bilan paused!

As if she had found a savior, she immediately went to meet them, holding Mrs. Fan's hand, and cried, "My dear relatives, you are finally here. This is really not my fault. It was them who insisted on breaking up the marriage between our two families. Isn't this bullying?"

Fan's mother was detained, but Fan still has three sisters-in-law, each more powerful than the other.

"Marriage is a matter of parents' orders and matchmaker's words. The date has been set, how can we let her do whatever she wants?"

Lin Zihuai stood in front of Du Juan and said, "Du Juan, don't be afraid. It doesn't matter how you settle the score. With me here, no one can hurt you."

Lu Qing patted Lin Zihuai's shoulder, signaling him not to rush. He exchanged a glance with Captain Xu, stood up, and quietly left the Du family.
