Chapter 65 Seeking Death
"Do you want to force me to death?" Chen Zhuyi also refuted with a neither humble nor arrogant attitude.
Xie Lingyi had once been captured and tortured by enemy spies, and her life was indeed hard, but Chen Zhuyi didn't owe Xie Lingyi anything!
She should have had a happy family, but it was destroyed by her enemies. She has been tortured all these years. Why doesn't anyone come to pity her?
Commander Lu looked at Chen Zhu, his breathing suddenly became heavier, and he just stared at her as if he was looking at an enemy.
But after a moment, his tense body slowly hunched over, and a hint of pleading appeared in his voice: "I have sacrificed a lot. If it weren't for my negligence, Ling Yi wouldn't have been captured by the enemy, and wouldn't have suffered so much torture."
"I trust my wife more in my heart, so I have doubts about you, little girl. I believe you can understand my painstaking efforts as a father, right?"
"As long as you leave here and never appear in front of us with Huo Jinzhi again, I will do my best to help you get everything you want. How about this?"
He knew very well that Chen Zhuyi was innocent in this matter, but people's hearts are always biased.
What's more, Aunt Lu was betting everything on this. At this point, he had no chance to back down and could only face the challenge head-on.
"If my father knew that I was forced to this point by his comrades, would he regret it?" Chen Zhuyi did not directly answer Commander Lu's words, but spoke in a low voice.
She slowly raised her eyes, wanting to look at the sky, but in this cramped room, there was only the dark roof, not even a ray of light could get in.
For a moment, Commander Lu's heart felt as if it had been hit hard by something, feeling sore and swollen, and extremely uncomfortable.
If Old Shen were still here, he would definitely hug Chen Zhuyi and give her some comfort, instead of just standing by and watching like them.
On one side is his daughter, and on the other side is his benefactor's daughter. No matter what choice he makes, it will be extremely painful for Commander Lu.
The two of them stayed silent like this for a long time. After the visiting time, Cheng Zhuoyue came in to chase them away. Commander Lu turned around and left without saying anything. After returning, he locked himself in the room.
Aunt Lu certainly noticed her husband's attitude. This night was destined to be a sleepless night for many people.
"Do you know how much we have given up?" Aunt Lu walked to Xie Lingyi's bedside, reached out and held her daughter's hand and spoke softly, but her words were filled with unremitting sadness.
As a couple for many years, she could certainly feel the conflict in Commander Lu's heart at the moment and understood his pain. Using rumors to force a good girl away was not a method Commander Lu would use.
It was because she favored her daughters that she embarked on the wrong path, and in order to take care of them, Commander Lu had to do it without hesitation.
Xie Lingyi was in good condition at the moment. She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked outside. "Mom, I have only one thought in this life. As long as I can get what I want, I will stay by your side and be the most filial daughter."
There was a hint of pride in her eyes, and she was certain that no matter what she did, there would be people supporting her.
Because of her childhood experiences, these people are born to owe her!
"Your father is feeling bad right now. He's been upright all his life, but now that he's old, he has to make such a compromise for us, mother and daughter. What if... he still doesn't like you?"
Aunt Lu carefully observed her daughter's expression before tentatively suggesting this possibility.
Xie Lingyi raised his hand and smashed the glass next to him to the ground. The shards splashed onto Aunt Lu's hand, leaving a slight smell of blood. But at this moment, Xie Lingyi was undoubtedly irritated. "Am I not as good as that bitch in your eyes?"
Chen Zhuyi, who suddenly appeared, has the ability to capture Huo Jin's heart, except for being good-looking and having some coquettish tricks?
What's more, these things are owed to her by her parents!
If... her life cannot be exchanged for Huo Jinzhi, then what about raising the stakes?
In addition to the lives of their entire family, they threatened Huo Jinzhi and forced him to marry her!
This thought flashed wildly in Xie Lingyi's mind like weeds. Her eyes lit up and she pressed Aunt Lu's arm with both hands.
"Mom, will you die for me?"
After seeing the glass fragments next to her, Xie Lingyi directly handed the things to Aunt Lu, her beautiful eyes even a little fanatical.
"As long as you threaten to kill yourself and let my dad threaten Huo Jinzhi again, even if he doesn't want to marry me, he will definitely give in. Just a little bit of sacrifice will be enough!"
"You don't have to really die. I'll help you find Doctor Zheng. Then you can watch me get married, okay?"
Xie Lingyi spoke in a polite manner, and wanted to stab Aunt Lu with the broken glass.
Aunt Lu, who has been doing farm work all year round and loves helping others, has good physical strength. At this moment, she grabbed Xie Lingyi's hand with force, her eyes full of shock: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
"As long as you seek death, you can help me get what I want. You already owe me a life. After you die, all grudges between us will be settled."
Xie Lingyi's eyes were innocent yet filled with undisguised cruelty. She knew the outcome, but couldn't help wanting others to bear the consequences.
"You won't die..." Xie Lingyi murmured, as if emphasizing something.
Aunt Lu slapped Xie Lingyi in the face. "I think you've really gone crazy now. Are you willing to stoop so low for a man?"
As soon as these words came out, Aunt Lu lost her strength for a moment. Commander Lu had already advised her that love cannot be forced.
Huo Jinzhi has also been on the island for several years, and Xie Lingyi has known him for a long time, but even now there has been no spark of love between the two.
This shows that Huo Jinzhi could not possibly like Xie Lingyi. Even if the two of them were forced to get married, there would be no good result in the end.
It was because she favored her daughter too much that she became obsessed.
"Am I willing to be degraded, or are you all incompetent?" Xie Lingyi was stunned for a moment, then retorted with a sharp look in his eyes, "Don't forget who has brought me to this point!"
In response to her words, Aunt Lu slapped her again with all her strength. The glass pierced into Xie Lingyi's palm, and scarlet blood gushed out.
"You are the child of a soldier, and you should have a higher sense of social responsibility. We have made amends to you for what happened back then over the years and have never said a harsh word to you, but you use it as a weapon to threaten us!" Aunt Lu's breathing became heavier.
