Chapter 100 Rejecting the Marriage
Upon hearing this, Lisa became anxious. "Studying is not as important as marriage, Uncle. It hasn't been easy for me and Yu Jiangbai to be together. We don't want to miss this opportunity."
Chen Kejing laughed and said, "It's only been a few months. It's not like we're not getting married. We'll arrange for you two to get married after he returns to China."
The parents of the car owner thought Chen Kejing's words made sense. "How about this, we book a simple engagement banquet first, and then get married after Jiang Bai comes back, what do you think?"
Lisa still disagreed, "Mom, I just want to be with Yu Jiangbai openly and honestly."
Hearing this, the three Yu siblings rolled their eyes. What era are we living in? Dating is commonplace. What era is it that means you can't be together openly and honestly if you don't get married? It's not like she's a mistress.
At that moment, a cold voice came over, "Che Lisha, are you really that reluctant to part with the child in your belly? Do you really have to give birth to him and give him a father?"
Everyone looked to one side and saw that Yu Jiangbai had come out at some point and was now walking downstairs while talking.
Lisa said happily, "Jiang Bai—you're awake—"
But at that moment, her heart was pounding wildly. What had he just said? Did he know she was pregnant?
Now that Yu Jiangbai himself has come out and ruthlessly revealed Lisa's true purpose in wanting to marry him, there's no need to hide it anymore.
Yu Xiaoluo also came downstairs. "Auntie, Uncle, you should ask your daughter if she's pregnant, and if the child in her belly is my brother's."
Lisa's face turned deathly pale. She pointed at Yu Xiaoluo and said, "You're talking nonsense! You're deliberately trying to sow discord between your brother and me! How could I be pregnant!"
Che Fu and Che Bo also said, "Yes, little girl, you are the newly recognized little sister of the Yu family. We have all attended your homecoming banquet. This matter really cannot be said carelessly."
Yu Xiaoluo smiled and said, "Uncle and Aunt, why don't you take your daughter to the hospital for a check-up? Or, the pharmacy should have some kind of swabs, right? You can just get a test and find out."
She learned all this by watching videos. Sometimes, she also watches melodramatic soap operas.
The father looked at his daughter, a hint of doubt in his mind.
Lisa stubbornly denied it, "Dad, I really didn't. How could you believe this country bumpkin rather than your own daughter? I really didn't."
The Yu family was speechless upon hearing this.
Seeing his son's firm denial, the father's face darkened. "Old Yu, I only brought this up because the two children are in love and are well-matched. Besides, Lisa said it was you who brought it up. Now, why are you going back on your word? Going back on your word is fine, but isn't it unacceptable for you to smear my daughter's reputation like this?"
Yu Ming also came down. "I just placed an order for a swab. It will be delivered within half an hour. If she is not pregnant, then our whole family apologizes to you. We misunderstood Lisa. If she is pregnant, then I'm sorry, my brother cannot go through with the marriage."
The mother said angrily, "Wipe it then, who's afraid of who? Sasha, don't be afraid."
Yu Xiaoluo laughed and said, "Yes, Sister Lisa, don't be afraid. Maybe we misunderstood you. Although I'm very accurate every time, there's always a chance I might make a mistake."
Lisa's face turned even paler, but she looked furious. "What do you take me for? You just decide to do a test whenever you want? You have no respect for people! Dad, Mom, let's go. Even if you beg me, I will never marry into the Yu family again!"
As she spoke, she pulled her parents away.
The father sighed heavily, "Old Yu, you have really disappointed me."
Watching their retreating figures, everyone breathed a long sigh of relief.
Yu Jiangbai, who hadn't said much until now, spoke up, "If she gives up the child, or tells the truth, I might accept her."
Yu Jiangbai resented that others treated him like a fool.
Yu Xiaoluo comforted her older brother, saying, "Actually, this matter will be exposed after the child is born, and you will get divorced anyway because the child is mixed-race. So, brother, you should be happy. You'll have less trouble and won't be ridiculed anymore."
Chen Kejing sighed, "Return all the things Lisa gave us that day. Liang, take them to her doorstep."
Yu Xiaoluo didn't take the bag she was supposed to give her; it was still on the sofa. As for the other things, Yu Liang put them all in the car and took them back.
They don't want to be accused of getting something for nothing.
Yes, after that incident, Yu Jiangbai was devastated for many years, stopped going to the company, and spent his days drinking heavily. But now, the gloom between his brows has faded.
Yu Liang exclaimed, "Does she have no brains? She's making my older brother take the blame for the foreigners' mistakes."
"She was probably desperate and grasping at straws. She was hoping for the best because the man was also half Chinese, and if the child took her genes, the truth wouldn't be revealed."
Chen Kejing sighed and looked at her youngest daughter with even more affection. "Luo Luo, it's fortunate that we have you in our family. If we ordinary people couldn't distinguish between all kinds of demons and monsters, then we would be even more complicated than demons and monsters."
"Mom, let's have breakfast. I'm hungry. Prepare more breakfast, my friends are hungry too."
Are you going to the store today?
"I'm not going. Bao Shuoyu and the renovation contractor are working at the store, so they don't need us lately. I want to take Xiaoxianxian and the others shopping; they've been working hard lately."
"Okay, okay, I'll ask Auntie to prepare more food."
After they finished eating, Yu Xiaoluo took the four demons and one ghost and had them appear in human form. They went shopping, bought clothes for them, and watched a movie. They were busy all day, but Xuanwu and Xiaohaha ran back to the car to play on their phones after a short while, while the four females had a great time.
That night, darkness fell.
Bao Shuoyu had been busy at the shop all day. After his master left, it got dark, so he closed the shop and headed outside.
At this time, the streets were rather deserted, many shops were closed, and there were only vehicles coming and going, with few pedestrians.
After walking for a while, Bao Shuyu's steps faltered slightly, but only for a second or two before returning to normal.
A carefree smile played on his lips, and some fools were following him, oblivious to the danger.
He didn't care and continued walking forward.
He felt a gust of wind on the back of his head, but he deliberately neither dodged nor avoided it. He wanted to know which bastard dared to mess with him. So he was hit solidly with a stick and fell to the ground.
Seeing that no one was around, the two men in black quickly dragged Bao Shuoyu into a car next to them and drove away.
