Chapter 552 Forced Marriage: If You Don’t Marry Me, I Will Die
Because Gu Qingshi was in confinement after childbirth, Mr. Lu was busy again and helped Fang Wen deal with many things. When Lu Qi heard that Gu Qingshi gave birth to a little girl, he was quite happy and felt that this was the retribution for her arrogance.
After Lu Qi recovered from the humiliation, he shamelessly ran to tell Old Man Lu that Gu Qingshi had given birth to a little girl who would marry into another family in the future and was no match for his youngest son, Lu Zijin.
Lu Qi considered for a long time and named his youngest son Lu Zijin. Jin means a good character and it sounds similar to "jin", which is an antonym of "yuan" in Lu Yuan's "yuan". The couple's expectations can be seen from the name.
Lu Qi said a lot of good things about Lu Zijin and shamelessly wanted to go back, but was directly beaten back by Mr. Lu.
Seeing that there was no hope of returning to the Lu family, Lu Qi saw that his youngest son was not giving up and wanted to do something big. He was active everywhere and wanted to make a comeback. As time went by, he somehow set his sights on Lu Ziting and wanted to marry her off in exchange for support.
Lu Qi actually found someone, a man in his forties whose wife had died and who left behind two children. He was considered a nouveau riche and was very envious of the Lu family's status. He also wanted to marry a young lady like Lu Ziting, who would make him look very prestigious.
Apart from anything else, Lu Ziting is really beautiful, not to mention being simple and easy to control, so the other party is quite satisfied with her.
In order to give birth to her youngest son, Zhuo Yao did not object, and the marriage was settled.
Lu Ziting was such a proud person in the past, and there were so many people who were not in her eyes. Who could have thought that she would end up like this and marry an old man like that.
She was unaware of it at first. When she saw the old man at home and asked to say hello, she called him uncle. When she found out, she almost exploded.
Of course she didn't want to get married, but it was useless to make a fuss. In the end, she couldn't help herself and went to find Bai Yang.
Something happened to Lu Yuan. Lu Ziting was very sad and ran to find Lu Yuan. Although Lu Yuan threatened her and she was very afraid of her, Lu Yuan was always her support.
Now that Lu Yuan is gone, Lu Qi dares to marry her to an old man like that, and outsiders dare to bully her.
Since Lu Yuan was not around, she didn't care about anything else and went to find Bai Yang again.
Bai Yang originally planned to visit Gu Qingshi and Xiaoxiao during the afternoon break, but he didn't expect Lu Ziting to come. When he saw Lu Ziting, Bai Yang's brows instantly frowned.
"Why are you here again?" He finally had a peaceful life.
Lu Ziting's eyes were red from crying, and she asked directly, "Bai Yang, can you marry me?"
"Impossible." Bai Yang refused without thinking.
Lu Ziting's eyes couldn't help but turn red again, "Bai Yang, I like you, I really do, I don't want to marry anyone else, I only want to marry you, I promise I won't make the same mistake again."
Bai Yang said no and walked around her. Lu Ziting's face was filled with despair. "Bai Yang, my father wants to marry me to a man who is more than ten years older than me and has two children. Can you just consider it as helping me? I don't want to marry him. I'd rather die than marry him. My father doesn't treat me as his daughter at all. He has completely sold me out. Can you just consider it as saving my life, Bai Yang?"
Bai Yang paused and frowned. He hated people who sold their daughters.
Seeing Bai Yang's reaction, Lu Ziting thought she saw hope, but Bai Yang just paused and quickly shook his head, "No, I won't joke about my happiness."
He refused without hesitation. He couldn't help Lu Ziting.
After saying this, Bai Yang went straight back to the kitchen and packed up the soup that he had been stewing for Gu Qingshi for half a day. Just as he closed the lunch box, he suddenly heard a commotion outside. The voices became increasingly louder, and there was news that someone had jumped off the building.
Many people in the store were free, so they all ran over to watch the fun and greeted Bai Yang. However, Bai Yang was too lazy to join in the fun, so he packed up and prepared to leave.
Before Bai Yang left, a chef came in hurriedly and grabbed Bai Yang, "Chef Bai, it's bad, that girl said she jumped off the building for you."
"What?" Bai Yang had a bad premonition, and the next second his premonition came true.
"The one who jumped off the building was the girl who came to you just now. She said she wanted to jump because you rejected her."
When Bai Yang heard this, he became angry. What was wrong with Lu Ziting? Did she want to force him to get married?
Bai Yang guessed correctly that Lu Ziting just wanted to force marriage.
After being rejected by Bai Yang, Lu Ziting was filled with despair. She thought that she might as well die if she went back to marry that old man. But before she died, she also wanted Bai Yang to see her feelings, to see how much she loved him and how serious she was about him.
Lu Ziting got excited and climbed directly to the roof of the building opposite Gu's Kitchen. The building opposite was newly built with seven floors, and Lu Ziting stood on the roof.
As soon as Lu Ziting stood up, someone noticed her. Everyone hurriedly advised Lu Ziting not to be impulsive and that any problem could be solved.
During their persuasion, Lu Ziting brought up the forced marriage that had been brewing in her mind for a long time. She jumped off the building because she was forced by her unscrupulous parents to marry an old man who was more than ten years older than her. The old man had two children. She didn't want to be a stepmother. She wanted to pursue her own love. Unless the person she liked married her, there was no point in her living.
Lu Ziting, such a young girl, was so pitiful. Whether it was the people who went up to the top floor to persuade her or the people who were worried about her downstairs, they all asked her who she liked.
Bai Yang was pushed out like this. When Bai Yang was pushed out, he saw Lu Ziting sitting on the roof with her legs dangling in the air, shaking, as if she would fall down at any time.
The crowd watching was very anxious, and the people on the street also received the news and ran over. After understanding what happened, everyone looked at Bai Yang.
Lu Ziting also saw Bai Yang. When she saw Bai Yang, she started crying again, heartbroken.
"We have to persuade him to calm down first." Seeing that Lu Ziting was emotionally unstable, everyone wanted him to help persuade her, but Lu Ziting didn't listen at all. She only wanted Bai Yang, and unless Bai Yang was willing to marry her, there was no point in her living and she might as well just die.
What she said was simple, but Bai Yang couldn't agree. What would the point of agreeing? Lu Ziting's coercion made Bai Yang feel more and more disgusted with Lu Ziting.
He couldn't agree with her or her methods, so he gritted his teeth and said nothing.
He said nothing, his face looked extremely grim, and he only asked someone to call the police. Among the onlookers, some looked at Lu Ziting who was crying pitifully, and then looked at Bai Yang who was so cold and ruthless, and they couldn't bear it anymore and spoke.
"How can you be so heartless, young man? That girl is so pitiful and likes you so much. What's wrong with you just agreeing?"
"That's right, she's so pitiful, just treat it as saving her life and agree to her. I think she's pretty."
Lu Ziting was forced by her unscrupulous parents to marry an old man, and she cried so pitifully that everyone felt sorry for her and was worried about her, and finally couldn't help but stand up for her.
