Chapter 553: You jump, but I won’t marry you
Bai Yang frowned when he heard this, "That's not what I meant. She and I are not in the relationship you think we are in."
"Then you can just pretend to agree first, and then explain it clearly after she comes down." Someone else offered a smart suggestion.
"If she comes down, she will never go up again? If I don't do my promise now, she will still try to commit suicide." Bai Yang replied immediately.
This immediately made the man unhappy. "So what do you want? Just watch someone die without helping? That's a life. You're too cold-hearted."
Such accusations were actually echoed by everyone, who roughly meant that not agreeing would be cold and heartless, and the matter suddenly turned into a crusade against Bai Yang.
"If someone doesn't know you, they would think you are a little girl. How can a grown man like you be so shy? I don't know what that little girl likes about you."
"That's right. Didn't you hear how pitiful that little girl is? Her parents forced her to marry a man like that."
Lu Ziting could naturally hear the accusations of these people against Bai Yang because their voices were so loud and some people comforted her, saying that they would give her justice. She knew that this was unfair to Bai Yang, but because she wanted to marry Bai Yang so much, she kept silent.
Bai Yang didn't expect that everyone would come to blame him. Looking at the crying Lu Ziting above, he thought of what she had done in the past. She framed him and almost ruined his life, then followed him, and now she is forcing him. What will she do in the future?
If he compromised today, he could foresee that he would be stuck in a quagmire in the future, so he must never compromise.
Ignoring the indignant looks of the onlookers, Bai Yang looked up at Lu Ziting, "Lu Ziting, have you forgotten how you slandered and framed me before?"
Lu Ziting's whole body trembled, "I'm sorry, Bai Yang, I'm sorry, I just like you too much." She was so guilty and scared that she looked like she was about to fall in the wind.
Everyone was shocked, but Bai Yang was just annoyed. "Lu Ziting, don't try to force me in this way. No matter what you do, I will not marry you."
Bai Yang was about to leave after he finished speaking, and then he heard everyone exclaiming. It turned out that Lu Ziting had half of her body sticking out, as if she was about to fall down in the next second.
"Everyone, be quiet. Lu Ziting, calm down, calm down." This scene was frightening. Some people tried to calmly separate everyone, but several people who had argued with Bai Yang before couldn't calm down.
One by one, they stopped Bai Yang, not letting him leave, and accused him of not helping someone in need.
The scene was in chaos. Bai Yang explained with a dark face his relationship with Lu Ziting and how Lu Ziting had framed him in the past, but those who accused him would not listen. They stood on the moral high ground and did not listen to his explanation at all.
The people from Gu's Kitchen saw something was wrong and stepped forward to help speak up, but it was useless because reporters heard the news and rushed over. Besides being interested in Lu Ziting, they also kept holding on to Bai Yang and asked a few more questions, which invisibly put pressure on Bai Yang again.
Bai Yang was once again surrounded by the words "not helping someone in danger", but some of the reporters who arrived refused to give in, so the scene became even more chaotic. Those who had challenged Bai Yang before seemed to have found their backbone, and felt more and more that they were messengers of justice, forcing Bai Yang to agree.
"She's going to die, and you're carrying a life on your shoulders!"
Similar words kept being heard, as if Bai Yang was holding a knife to Lu Ziting. The scene was out of control and tense. Everyone could see that something was wrong. Lu Ziting could see it too, but she still didn't say a word. Although she was nervous, she was still dreaming that Bai Yang would agree.
She thought that although Bai Yang was forced by her now, she would treat Bai Yang well in the future and compensate him. She would also give birth to children for him to make him happy, and then he would forgive her.
She has not changed from beginning to end, and is still the selfish Lu Ziting.
Gu Qingshi rushed over after receiving the call and was faced with this chaotic situation. The police had already arrived, but because there were too many people at the scene and the situation was still somewhat out of control, they could only maintain order to avoid conflicts.
The firefighters also arrived, but the situation was a bit complicated. Gu Qingshi looked at the situation and called the people in the store to help. If there were any quilts or something like that, they could use them as cushions. Then the bodyguards cleared the way and pushed away the people who surrounded Bai Yang. Gu Qingshi took the loudspeaker in the store and turned it on, "Everyone, be quiet."
Gu Qingshi's arrival made a lot of noise, attracting everyone's attention, and with the loudspeaker, no one could ignore it.
Taking advantage of the silence, Gu Qingshi briefly introduced herself. She was the owner of Gu's Kitchen, Bai Yang's relative, and more importantly, she was also Lu Ziting's sister-in-law.
Gu Qingshi held the megaphone and looked at Lu Ziting with a tough attitude, "Lu Ziting, if you don't want to marry the person your father found for you, you can go directly to the police. You have the freedom of marriage, and as long as you don't want to get married, no one can force you."
"By the same token, you can't force Bai Yang to marry you. This is not the way to like someone. You will only push them further away. And it's absolutely impossible to force Bai Yang to agree in this way. I don't want to provoke you, but you have to think carefully. How many lives do you have? Are you doing the right thing?"
Gu Qingshi thought of the incident of Lu Yuan jumping off the building that he had to deal with not long ago. The employee was pushed to a certain extent and chose this method, but what about Lu Ziting? She was not like that. She just selfishly wanted to get Bai Yang.
Lu Ziting had such an impulse because she was thinking about the previous incident with her employee. Being anxious and sad was one thing, but the employee's success that time was another.
Her face changed drastically when she saw Gu Qingshi. She was scared and nervous. She had a feeling that Gu Qingshi saw through her completely. At this moment, she really wanted to die. She didn't dare to cry, but her condition looked worse.
The few people who stood up for Lu Ziting immediately pointed their spearheads at Gu Qingshi, "How can you be so cruel?"
"If I don't want to be ruthless, do I have to agree to her request like you brainless people? Have you ever thought about why she dared to do this? It's because of people like you!"
Gu Qingshi stared at the woman standing in the front who was shouting the loudest. "You said I was cruel and refused to help my brother. You are just talking nonsense. Now you are forcing my brother to agree. I will jump off the building like her and make some unreasonable demands, such as having one of your hands broken. Will you agree?"
The lady who was shouting the loudest immediately fell silent, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"I'm not talking nonsense. You are trying to save my life. You only lost one arm, but I have a life. Are you going to watch me die without helping me?"
Gu Qingshi spoke quickly and clearly, ringing in everyone's ears. When they thought of this, everyone's faces changed. The lady who said Gu Qingshi was too much was also confused, "How are these the same?"
"How is it different? Didn't you say my brother is exactly the same? If you keep refusing to agree, then you are just watching him die without helping him, right?"
