Chapter 565 Will You Marry Me?
“My elder brother is infertile, Song Lanyin refuses to acknowledge her ancestors, and I have already publicly revealed my adopted son’s background. So now, the Yu family only has you, their youngest daughter, to rely on.”
Yu Yashi frowned, hesitated for a moment, and then suddenly realized, "Third Brother, you mean, Father wants me to find a son-in-law to live with us and carry on the Yu family line, and then that son-in-law is..."
She pointed at Yu Changze, "You?"
Yu Changze smiled and rubbed her hand with his large hand. "Not bad, not too stupid."
Yu Yashi was shocked!
“But if they really want me and you to carry on the Yu family line, then why haven’t they come looking for me all this time? And they even forced me to marry into the Jiang family! I disagreed, and Grandma kicked me out. I thought they had given up on me.”
"Because I've already talked to my father."
Yu Yashi frowned. "What did you talk about?"
“I told him that if you got pregnant that night, the child would be transferred to my older brother if it was a boy, and we would raise it ourselves if it was a girl.”
"Are you crazy!" Yu Yashi clutched her stomach. "I don't want it! My own child, why should I give it to my older brother!"
Yu Changze smiled and stared at her as she clutched her stomach, finding it inexplicably adorable.
He raised an eyebrow and said, feigning surprise, "I thought you didn't like this child."
"How could I not like him? Even though it was an accident, he's still my own child. If I decide to give birth to him, I will take full responsibility for him!"
Yu Yashi looked at Yu Changze. This usually obedient and indecisive girl was now showing a rare determination for the sake of the little life in her womb: "Third brother, although you have taken good care of me since I was little and have been very good to me, if you dare to give my baby to eldest brother, I will hate you!"
Yu Changze never expected her to say such a thing.
I was actually happy.
Her protective mother-hen-like demeanor pleased him.
"If you want to keep this child, then marry me."
Yu Yashi was taken aback.
"You don't want to be a single mother, do you?"
“But we…” Yu Yashi’s eyelashes fluttered rapidly, her gaze wavering, and she dared not look Yu Changze in the eye.
"What's wrong with us?" Yu Changze stared at her, his voice low and gentle. "We used to be siblings, but we are not related by blood. I have already moved my household registration out of the Yu family. Whether from a legal or ethical point of view, our marriage is legal and reasonable."
Yu Yashi kept her head down and didn't say anything.
In fact, Yu Changze's words make a lot of sense.
The best way to keep the child is for them to get married and provide the child with a normal and complete environment to grow up in.
As for them, although they have been siblings for the past 27 years, they are not related by blood. In addition, Yu Changze no longer belongs to the Yu family. Their marriage is in accordance with the law and does not violate ethics.
Yu Yashi thought that she should marry Yu Changze for the sake of the child.
However, by marrying for the sake of an unexpected baby, their lives would be intertwined. She knew very well that Yu Changze was marrying her out of a sense of responsibility.
This marriage has responsibilities and the care of family members, but no love.
Yu Yashi picked at her fingernails. She knew that Yu Changze had always had a white moonlight in his heart, but that white moonlight was dead. In recent years, he had either been making movies or traveling. There was a photo of his white moonlight in the inner pocket of his bag.
She had seen her before; she was a mixed-race girl, very delicate and beautiful, like a porcelain doll.
They are completely different types of people...
Why aren't you saying anything again?
The man's deep voice interrupted Yu Yashi's thoughts.
She looked up at Yu Changze, "Third Brother, do you really want to marry me?"
"Do I look like I'm joking?" Yu Changze said helplessly. "Ya Shi, I'm not that bad. Although that night was an accident, I've been prepared for this."
Yu Yashi asked, puzzled, "What do you mean by 'you're prepared'?"
“When I woke up that day, I found that you had already left. I had someone investigate and found that you had run to Beicheng. With Song Lanyin looking after you in Beicheng, I felt at ease staying in Gangcheng to negotiate with Yu Shang.”
Yu Changze's deep voice echoed in the quiet ward.
"Yu Shang said nice things on the surface, asking me to marry you and become the Yu family's son-in-law, but in reality, he only saw us as tools to continue the family line. The Wen family will definitely protect Song Lanyin's child. After the last turmoil, the Yu family can no longer compete with a company like the Wen family. Yu Shang knows this, so he turned his attention to me, an orphan without family support, and you, who have always been obedient to your elders and dared not disobey."
Yu Yashi sighed, "It sounds like we're both really pitiful. It really proves the saying, 'The pitiful are bullied.'"
Yu Changze couldn't help but chuckle at her words. "This is just Yu Shang and the Yu family being presumptuous. Now that I've left the Yu family, even without family support, the assets and connections I've accumulated over the years are not something that Yu Shang can easily manipulate."
"Then why did you agree to your father's request to transfer your son to your elder brother?"
"If I don't agree, do you think he'll let it go?"
Yu Yashi was taken aback.
“I promised Yu Shang, so Yu Shang and Madam Yu let you off the hook and stopped forcing you to marry into the Jiang family. Because in their eyes, an heir with Yu family blood is far more important than marrying into the Jiang family.”
Yu Yashi suddenly realized!
"So, the reason I've been able to live so freely in Beicheng all this time is not because the Yu family abandoned me, but because you had already reached an agreement with the Yu family."
"Hmm." Yu Changze raised his hand and rubbed her head. "But don't worry, even if I really give birth to a son, I won't give the child to them."
“But if you don’t give it to them…” Yu Yashi said worriedly, “they definitely won’t give up. Although this is a society governed by law, they are capable of anything when they start to cause trouble.”
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Yu Changze looked at her. "You still haven't answered my question."
Yu Yashi blinked, confused. "What's the problem?"
Yu Changze looked directly into her eyes and asked, "Will you marry me?"
Yu Yashi was slightly taken aback.
Yu Changze smiled helplessly, "What? Is marrying me making things so difficult for you?"
"I didn't mean that!" Yu Yashi hurriedly waved her hand, looking at Yu Changze, feeling her cheeks burning.
She lowered her head, her voice very soft, "Things have come to this point, if we don't get married... it'll be hard to end things, won't it?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Changze smiled.
He gently patted the top of her head with his large hand, his voice tender, "Then once your health stabilizes, we'll go get our marriage certificate."
Yu Yashi looked up, and their eyes met. Her cheeks flushed slightly, and her heart pounded like a drum.
She nodded, gently placing her hand on her stomach, feeling a sweet warmth in her heart.
Even if Yu Changze married her out of a sense of duty, she was content.
It was at this moment that she belatedly realized her feelings for Yu Changze.
Unbeknownst to her, she had already developed feelings for the man she had called "Third Brother" for 27 years.
However, in the past, this affection was wrapped up tightly by the bond between siblings, so tightly that even she herself was unaware of it.
Now that the guise of sibling affection has been stripped away, this love has been unleashed, and she is shocked to realize that she has already fallen deeply in love.
