Just as Song Lan was about to speak, Song Qingbin stepped forward and stopped Han's father from raising his hand.
“Uncle Han, my little sister is right. Now that it has happened, for the sake of Comrade Han Bailan and the child in her womb, you can only stand up for them if you calm down.”
He's not about to become a father unexpectedly!
Han Bailan had someone she liked and was pregnant with his child, so he simply let them be happy together.
"Make decisions for her? What decisions should I make for her?"
Han's father glared at Han Bailan: "She has you as her fiancé, yet she's messing around with someone else. Now she even has a child, and this bastard on the ground was just playing with her. If you ask me, she brought this on herself and deserves to be humiliated!"
These words were a huge blow to Han Bailan, and she covered her mouth and burst into tears.
reaping what you sow?
Serves him right?
To be humiliated?
Why say that about her?
Song Lan spoke up: "Uncle Han, I think you should just let Comrade Han Bailan and Comrade Zhao Jing be together. After all, they already have a child. As for my brother, this matter..."
Although they wronged my elder brother, the child is innocent. I believe my elder brother can understand and will not have any resentment towards Comrade Han Bailan. We can just cancel the marriage between our two families later.
After all, feelings can't be forced. It's a fact that Comrade Han Bailan doesn't like my older brother. Forcing her to marry my older brother would be unfair to both her and my older brother.
Besides, the child in her womb is Comrade Zhao Jing's. You need to meet with Comrade Zhao Jing's parents as soon as possible to settle things between Comrade Han Bailan and Comrade Zhao Jing, lest Comrade Han Bailan's pregnancy become undeniable and lead to various rumors from those around her.”
After releasing Han's father's wrist, Song Qingbin said, "I am willing to grant Comrade Han Bailan and Comrade Zhao Jing their wish."
Time ticked by, and after several minutes, Han's father finally calmed down. He recalled what Song Lan and Song Qingbin had said and knew that they were right; there was only one way to go now.
That is, to break off the engagement with the Song family and seek justice from the Zhao family!
Otherwise, their family would inevitably become the focus of everyone's talk in town... Their daughter, Lanlan, might even be sent to a farm for reform, ruining her life!
"Do you have anything to say?"
With a barely perceptible exhale, Han's father sat down on the nearby bamboo chair, his cold gaze fixed on Zhao Jing: "You'd better think it through before you speak!"
Zhao Jing was in excruciating pain all over his body, and this was only because Han's father was getting old. If he had been beaten by Han Bailan's brother, Zhao Jing would probably have been half-dead, if not killed.
Zhao Jing slowly moved his curled-up body, enduring the pain as he got up and sat down on the ground.
"I...I have a fiancée..."
He glanced at Han's father, then quickly looked away. Things had developed to this point, and he couldn't do whatever he wanted. But to marry Han Bailan and break off his engagement with his fiancée, to be honest, he was reluctant.
Even though his fiancée Feng Yuanyuan was cold and rarely smiled in front of him, he had been thinking about her for many years, wasn't it because he liked her for being different?
During his junior and senior high school years, he was good-looking and came from a well-off family, so many girls liked him. But Feng Yuanyuan always looked at him with a cold and indifferent attitude and never even gave him a glance.
Even though he tried to tease her to get her attention, he was ignored.
So, without realizing it, he fell in love with Feng Yuanyuan, this cold beauty.
Two months ago, when he learned that his blind date was Feng Yuanyuan, he thought it was just a coincidence of names. But when he saw her, he was overjoyed and showed her his best side.
After only two meetings, the two families finalized the marriage agreement.
"You have a fiancée, but doesn't Lanlan have a fiancé?"
Han's father's face was as black as the bottom of a pot: "Tell me, what do you plan to do to Lanlan?"
Before Zhao Jing could speak, Han's father continued, "I'll give you two choices: either break off the engagement and marry Lanlan, or I'll take you to the police station right now. You should know what crime you committed against Lanlan without me having to explain, right?"
"..."
He hasn't lived enough yet and doesn't want to go and die!
The thought of being sent to the police station made Zhao Jing shiver uncontrollably.
"No, don't take me to the police station, I...I'll marry Han Bailan..."
With gritted teeth, Zhao Jing made his decision.
Feng Yuanyuan... He liked this cold beauty, but after spending a few weekends together after their engagement, he realized that she was truly cold. If he were to spend his whole life with a woman like that, he might suffocate.
Furthermore, compared to his own fate, not being able to be husband and wife with Feng Yuanyuan wasn't really... a big deal.
“Let’s go, call your parents and tell them to come to my house within an hour to discuss the wedding date.”
Yes, it's about discussing the wedding date, not getting engaged.
His daughter's pregnancy couldn't wait; the sooner the wedding was arranged, the more secure it would be, to avoid any unforeseen circumstances.
"..."
Zhao Jing's lips twitched, as if he wanted to say something, but when Han's father gave him a cold look, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue. He nodded as a response to what Han's father had said, and then slowly stood up and looked at Han's father.
"Qingbin, Lanlan and our family are the ones who wronged you about your relationship with Lanlan. Take some time to tell your parents to come to our house and call off the engagement!"
Mr. Han felt ashamed in front of Song Qingbin and Song Lan, but he had to say what needed to be said. Otherwise, his daughter Lanlan would be a bad person, and the whole Han family would be a bad person as well.
Once word gets out, even if Lanlan marries into the Zhao family, her reputation probably won't be good.
"good."
Song Qingbin nodded.
Song Lan: "Uncle Han, there's nothing for my brother and me to do here, so we'll take our leave first."
