Chapter 96: Will Not Get Married
Lu Hai withdrew his hand without hesitation and took a step back, saying, "I'm afraid I can't help you with that."
Her cousin had a fiancée, and the two had already met. Her grandfather even said they got along very well. At this point, no matter how deep Wang Tingting's feelings were, she could only give up with tears in her eyes.
"No, you must have a way."
Wang Tingting wanted to win Lu Ye's heart, so she first planned to form a alliance to deal with her rival. She asked Lu Hai, "You haven't met that Bai Zhi yet, have you?"
Lu Hai shrugged. "Never seen it before."
He has no interest in his cousin's woman.
He didn't dare to be interested.
"She's just a country girl who's never seen the world. She gets her medicine from a pharmacy. You have no idea how shady that pharmacy is. The doctor there is also an incompetent doctor. He almost caused a serious accident by misdiagnosing my aunt."
Later, my aunt and I kindly went to the pharmacy to remind them to be more careful with patients. Who knew they would get so angry and nearly verbally abuse us? That Bai Zhi even threatened to call the police and have us arrested.
Upon hearing this, Lu Hai's expression changed slightly.
Is my cousin's fiancée so unreasonable?
That shouldn't be the case.
Grandpa isn't senile yet.
Wang Tingting noticed that Lu Hai's expression changed, and pressed her advantage, "Xiao Hai, how could you just stand by and watch someone like that enter the Lu family?"
As soon as she said that, Lu Hai understood instantly.
He smirked. "You mean, you want me to help you deal with Bai Zhi, get rid of her, and then you'll take over?"
Wang Tingting's eyes flickered slightly, "I just feel that Bai Zhi is not good enough for Lu Ye."
Lu Hai crossed his arms, looked at Wang Tingting, and said casually, "Cousin, I just don't understand, what's wrong with you women? Can't you go out and see more of the world? Why are you so fixated on one thing?"
"What do you mean?" Wang Tingting asked.
He squinted, looking thoroughly satisfied. "When you broaden your horizons, you'll find there's a whole forest in front of you. You can do whatever you want with it. Isn't it boring to date just one person? Don't you get tired of each other?"
He can't love one woman forever.
They even resort to any means necessary to get what they want from the other person.
That's something only madmen would do.
Wang Tingting said, "Xiao Hai, I can't learn your ways. I'm very loyal."
Lu Hai disagreed with her point of view at all. "What you're doing isn't being devoted, it's being stubborn. There are thousands of men in the world. If one doesn't work out, we can find another. But don't do something that will make others hate you and make you feel inferior and miserable. Why bother?"
"Come downstairs, don't stand here. If my grandpa and uncle see you, you'll never be allowed to enter my house again."
Wang Tingting could only reluctantly follow Lu Hai downstairs.
Just as she came downstairs, Xie Yun came out of the bedroom. Seeing Wang Ting, she said in a not-so-pleasant tone, "Tingting, you haven't left yet?"
"Aunt, I plan to keep my aunt company."
Wang Tingting used the excuse of accompanying Wang Shufen, so the family couldn't very well kick her out.
But now that Lu Ye is at home, it's not a good idea for Wang Tingting to stay and not leave.
The key point is that they need to invite Bai Zhi to their home for dinner.
Xie Yun directly told him to leave, "Xiao Hai, take your cousin home. Your mother looks so pale, let her go back to her room and lie down for a while. Take her to the hospital for a check-up later."
"Aunt, I understand."
Lu Hai said to Wang Tingting, "Cousin, let's go..."
Wang Tingting was directly told to leave, so she could only say a few private words to Wang Shufen before glancing upstairs and reluctantly leaving.
Lu Hai drove back from Jincheng.
But he only dropped Wang Tingting off outside the military compound and told her to take a car home by herself.
He said he was too sleepy to drive because he hadn't taken a nap.
I need to go home and sleep.
......
As soon as Lu Hai and Wang Tingting left, Xie Yun sat down next to Wang Shufen, looking at her with a serious expression.
"Shufen, I need to have a serious talk with you."
"Sister-in-law, what do you want to say? I'm a little tired." Wang Shufen wanted to avoid the topic.
Xie Yun didn't give her a chance to escape and spoke directly, "Lu Ye and Bai Zhi get along very well, and we also approve of Bai Zhi as a girl. They are going to get married in the future, so I hope you can face reality and not do something that is thankless."
"Sister-in-law, I don't understand what you're saying," Wang Shufen said, feigning ignorance.
"Then I'll be blunt," Xie Yun said, getting straight to the point. "Don't try to set Lu Ye and Wang Tingting up anymore. There's no chance for them."
"Don't even mention Lu Ye, she can't get past us parents."
Xie Yun's words made Wang Shufen lose face, and she said angrily, "Sister-in-law, what do you mean? Do you look down on my niece? What's wrong with her? How can she not meet your standards?"
Wang Shufen retorted indignantly, "My brother is at least the second-in-command of the machinery factory, and Tingting's job is also very respectable. She is no less capable than Bai Zhi. I thought you were all intellectuals and would definitely appreciate Tingting's excellence, but I didn't expect you to be deceived by that country girl."
“Sister-in-law, as the parents, it is irresponsible of you and brother to have such thoughts about Lu Ye. Have you thought about the consequences of Bai Zhi marrying Lu Ye? She has a rural household registration, and the children she will have in the future will also be half rural people. The old man barely survived the war and turned us all into city people. If he marries a rural wife, we will be back to square one.”
"Don't forget, without Bai Zhi's grandfather, there would be no old man like us."
Wang Shufen scoffed, "Then give her other compensation. Why insist on marrying her?"
Why drag Lu Ye down with you for life when money can solve the problem?
Anyway, she wouldn't believe that Lu Ye would fall in love at first sight with a country girl like Bai Zhi.
At most, he was forced into this situation by the old man, who pressured him to develop feelings for Bai Zhi.
So, if it was a passive process of cultivating feelings, why wasn't that person Tingting?
At least they have similar backgrounds, are of similar age, and must have common ground.
Wang Shufen snorted coldly, "I will absolutely not agree to my Xiaohai marrying a country girl in the future."
She was immediately proven wrong when she said, "Mom, I'm not getting married. You might as well give up on that idea now."
Lu Hai strolled in with his hands in his pockets, walking in with a leisurely gait.
"Xiao Hai, what nonsense are you talking about? Who doesn't get married?" Wang Shufen struggled to lift her stiff neck and looked at her son in horror.
Lu Hai shrugged. "Why should I tie myself to marriage? Being single is so much better."
Wang Shufen's face turned ashen with anxiety. "How can you give me a grandson if you don't get married? Do you want our second branch of the family to die out?"
Lu Ya will get married in the future; they only have one son, Lu Hai.
If he doesn't get married, they won't even be able to hold their grandchildren.
Lu Hai sat down on the sofa, crossed his legs,
"We'll talk about having a grandson later; I have no intention of getting married anyway."
