The day after Luo Bin's wedding with baijiu, Luo Bin brought baijiu into Luo Sheng's house.
"Remember, our uncle's family places great importance on those complicated etiquettes, so Jiu Jiu, don't be silly and not know how to greet people when you go in."
"You are now a member of the Luo family. As the eldest sister-in-law of the Luo family, you should have the demeanor of a member of the Luo family."
"Got it? Hmm?"
Luo Bin stood with his hands in his pockets, his eyes devoid of any warmth.
He stood on the steps in front of the gate, looking down at the crimson liquor in his eyes.
He lifted her chin and gave her instructions, word by word.
Bai Jiu's eyes were filled with resentment, but her current situation did not allow her to go against Luo Bin's wishes.
Most of her savings had been used to pay the penalty for breach of contract. If she wanted to return to her previous life, she either had to make a comeback or try her best to please the man in front of her and secure her place in the Luo family.
Perhaps she shouldn't have provoked these people.
These are people she could never reach, even if she worked her whole life in the entertainment industry.
Now she wants to resist and run away again; but as long as Luo Bin refuses to let her go, she will only face certain death wherever she goes.
She felt some regret. She regretted hooking up with Luo Sheng, regretted taking the five million and leaving for short-term gain, and regretted meeting Luo Bin, this terrible man, in the United States.
Looking back on these days, it seems she has gained nothing.
Her father passed away prematurely due to delayed medical treatment, and Luo Sheng, whom she had finally reunited with, now despised her. Her friends, seeing that she was no longer the same as before, all disappeared without a trace.
It seemed that she had nothing left but her disheveled state and the child.
If only she hadn't gotten involved with these people for her own selfish reasons.
A person who is solely dependent on a man will never be truly free.
"I understand, you don't need to keep reminding me."
Fortunately, she has always been a ruthless person and knows what requires forbearance.
Bai Jiu glanced at the man briefly, strode past him, left him with a single sentence, and walked straight into the Luo family's gate.
"I know what I have to do. I'm already tied to you by the household registration, do you think I can run away?"
At this moment, the two elders had been waiting for a long time in the Luo family hall.
Upon arriving at the Luo family hall again, Bai Jiu never expected to be there in this capacity.
She looked at the Luo family couple sitting on the sofa with indifferent expressions, and she couldn't quite bring herself to call them "uncle" and "aunt".
Good morning, Uncle and Aunt.
Luo Bin, who was walking behind, caught up at this moment, and gave Bai Jiu a wink.
"Hello, Uncle and Aunt."
The newcomer's voice was devoid of emotion; after all, he was an actor, and even if he was uncomfortable, Baijiu had remained polite and courteous from the moment he entered.
Out of respect for Luo Bin, Luo's parents stopped treating the liquor coldly.
"Since you're here, let's all sit down and talk."
"Okay, Aunt." Luo Bin pulled over the bottle of baijiu and sat down opposite the two of them.
As the two men sat down, Luo's father's gaze fell on the white wine.
"Now that you've married into the Luo family, you're considered a member of the Luo family."
"As elders of the Luo family, your aunt and I hope that you can be yourself in the future. We don't need to dwell on the past."
"But now that you are Luo Bin's wife, you must do your job well. Remember not to cause any more trouble."
Luo's father's words resonated deeply within Bai Jiu.
She nodded and replied, "Thank you, Uncle. I understand. From now on, I will stay in the Luo family and stay by Luo Bin and the child's side. I won't cause you any more trouble."
These days, the baijiu's temperament has indeed become much more restrained.
Mr. and Mrs. Luo witnessed this firsthand, and they nodded in satisfaction, thus putting the past behind them.
Luo Bin was somewhat disappointed not to run into Luo Sheng at the Luo family home. He exchanged a few words with Luo's parents and then prepared to leave.
Coincidentally.
The couple ran into Luo Sheng, who had just returned home, as soon as they stepped outside.
"Hey, cousin. Long time no see."
Luo Sheng, who had just returned from the studio, was not really interested in seeing the two of them. He ignored Luo Bin, who was blocking his way, and walked past him to go home.
"Hey, wait a minute, cousin. Aren't you going to say hello to your cousin's wife?"
Luo Bin pulled the silent liquor bottle to Luo Sheng's side.
The atmosphere between the three instantly became tense.
"Hello, cousin and cousin's wife."
"Is this alright, cousin? I have to go back now."
Knowing that Luo Bin wanted to disgust him, Luo Sheng felt that running away was useless.
He went straight to the two of them and glanced at them. After exchanging the necessary greetings, Luo Sheng pushed aside Luo Bin, who was blocking his way, and made as if to leave.
"Luo Sheng."
"I'm sorry." Bai Jiu's eyes were filled with tears as she turned to look at Luo Sheng, her gaze filled with regret and reluctance...
From the moment Luo Sheng appeared until just now, Bai Jiu's entire demeanor became unnatural.
She liked Luo Sheng, so the moment he appeared, she lost her composure, and the calm she had maintained for so long crumbled.
She felt sorry for him. If she hadn't made that choice back then, would he be the one holding her hand now?
Luo Sheng, who had just opened the door, stopped in his tracks.
You haven't done anything wrong to me.
"The person you've wronged the most is yourself."
"And I only have myself to blame."
After saying these three sentences in a calm tone, Luo Sheng entered his home.
Only the two remaining people were left with a tightly closed door.
