527: I’m finally going to marry Xiaobai!
Chu Lan had a clear idea in his mind, so he spoke more directly:
"Xiaobai, I'm doing this for your own good. I really can't bear to see you being humiliated here.
If you marry Darong, we will be a family. Since we are a family, we will naturally support you.
When the time comes, I will ask Darong's father to help you use his connections so that you can take Darong back to the city. This will save you from being looked down upon and humiliated here.
Think about it carefully. If you agree, just give me a nod and I'll go back and talk to Darong's father about it."
At this moment, Bai Zongdan no longer refused without hesitation as he did before.
Chu Lan’s words made him feel confused and he was completely at a loss as to what to do.
But one thought is clear:
He doesn't want to marry Lin Darong!
In fact, he didn't particularly dislike Lin Darong at the beginning, he just simply didn't like this girl.
Later, Lin Darong's series of outrageous actions made Bai Zongdan completely see through that she was a willful, impulsive and brainless person, and he began to feel annoyed with Lin Darong.
He would rather be single all his life than marry someone like this!
It is even more impossible for him to marry her just to return to the city!
But--
Director Chu's words reminded him how embarrassing his current situation was. Not only was he being looked at strangely by his colleagues, he was also unable to face Director Zhou.
He was not afraid that Director Zhou would make things difficult for him, nor was he afraid that Director Zhou would send him to the logging team again. He just felt ashamed to face Director Zhou.
Although he had not met Director Zhou alone since he came back, every time he saw Director Zhou from afar, he would feel inferior and wish he could find a hole to crawl into, and subconsciously wanted to escape.
He also couldn't face Yu Xiaoye calmly.
In the terms of the 21st century, Bai Zongdan is equivalent to social death in his workplace.
He was a sentimental person by nature, and he suffered tremendous psychological pressure because of this incident.
Chu Lan's words were like the last straw that broke the camel's back, completely overwhelming him.
If I could leave here by marrying Lin Darong, wouldn't that be a way to get out of this situation?
However, he was really reluctant to marry Lin Darong.
What should I do?
Chu Lan saw that Bai Zongdan kept his head down and remained silent for a long time, but at least did not explicitly refuse, so he knew that his words had worked.
Chu Lan did not continue to force Bai Zongdan to make a choice. She took a step back and advised in an extremely sincere tone:
"Xiaobai, it's okay. You don't have to make a decision now. Go back and think about it carefully. Take the opportunity to visit your family in the city to discuss it with them. But I believe your parents definitely hope that you can return to the city and be with them. After all, parents are old and they want their children to be around to take care of them. In case something unexpected happens one day, they don't have to worry about being alone, right?"
Bai Zongdan, who had been keeping his head down and silent, finally spoke:
"Director, let me think about it?"
Chu Lan was delighted and suppressed his inner excitement and said:
"Okay, go back and think about it carefully. Come back to me when you've figured it out. Don't worry, I'm doing this for your own good and won't harm you."
Bai Zongdan stood up and left with heavy steps.
Chu Lan looked at Bai Zongdan's departing back, and finally a smug smile appeared on his face.
It should be done!
When she got off work at noon that day, Chu Lan went to the warehouse of the supply and marketing cooperative to find Lin Darong and told her daughter about this.
When Lin Darong heard that Xiaobai might marry her, she trembled with joy:
"Mom, Mom, how did you do that?!"
Chu Lan said proudly:
"This is easy, there's nothing your mother can't do!"
"Mom, you're so awesome! Ahhhhhh! I'm going to marry Xiaobai! I'm finally going to marry him!"
Lin Darong was so happy that she ran around the warehouse like a headless fly, so excited that she didn't know what to do.
On the other hand, Bai Zongdan's life was not so easy.
Before Chu Lan found him, although he was also depressed, he was not to the point of being depressed. At most, he felt unhappy.
But ever since Chu Lan found him and said those words to him, Bai Zongdan fell into depression.
He had no appetite every day and was completely drained of energy.
Every day he was struggling with one question: should he marry Lin Darong and leave here, or reject Lin Darong and continue to stay on the farm?
Sometimes I wonder why he should face this dilemma?
Or just marry Lin Darong and leave here.
Leaving here, everyone can have some peace and quiet, which is a relief for everyone.
But he felt unwilling. Why should he sacrifice his own happiness? He obviously didn't like Lin Darong, and even hated her. Why should he live with someone he didn't like?
Bai Zongdan felt that he was standing at a crossroads in his life, not knowing which way to go.
It seems that both paths lead to an unknown abyss.
Confused, desperate, and unable to see the future.
Yu Xiaoye was the first to discover Bai Zongdan's abnormality.
She didn't understand why Bai Zongdan suddenly became so depressed.
She remembered that Bai Zongdan was not like this when she just came back. At least he could still work normally, write articles and paint normally.
I obviously can't muster the energy to do anything these past two days.
That day, Section Chief Wei asked him to write some promotional materials. After asking him several times, Bai Zongdan reluctantly handed them over.
Section Chief Wei was very dissatisfied with the materials submitted. He felt that they were irrelevant and did not grasp the main points, so he had to ask someone else to write another one.
Everyone just thought that Bai Zongdan was going back to the city to visit his relatives and had no time to work, but Yu Xiaoye always felt that things were not that simple.
Later, her guess was indeed confirmed.
One day, a woman came to the office with two large bags and gave them to Bai Zongdan.
The entire office
Everyone was stunned and looked at the woman together.
Seeing everyone's strange expressions, Yu Xiaoye quietly asked Ding Lu beside him who that woman was.
Ding Lu said, that was Deputy Director Lin’s wife, Lin Darong’s mother!
Oh my god, Lin Darong's mom actually gave Xiaobai something?!
The daughter failed to win over Xiaobai, so the mother stepped in!
Now Yu Xiaoye seemed to suddenly understand why Bai Zongdan was not in good shape these days.
Lin Darong's mother must have used some despicable means to make Xiaobai surrender!
It seems that mothers are more skilled.
As soon as Lin Darong's mother left, everyone gathered around Bai Zongdan to ask what was going on. Could it be that he really was going to be the son-in-law of the forest director?
Bai Zongdan held his forehead with his hand in embarrassment and said nothing.
Judging from the look of it, he is definitely reluctant, but due to some pressure, he has to go against his own wishes.
Seeing Bai Zongdan being bullied like this by the mother and daughter, Yu Xiaoye couldn't bear it anymore.
But she couldn't bear to watch it and couldn't do anything about it, after all, it was someone else's business.
And now Bai Zongdan is deliberately distancing himself from her, so she definitely won't be able to ask anything.
After thinking about it, Yu Xiaoye felt that he should talk to Zhou Ziheng about this matter and ask Zhou Ziheng to help analyze it.
When he got off work at noon that day, Yu Xiaoye went to the office to find Zhou Ziheng.
As a result, as soon as I walked out of the auditorium, I saw Jia Song entering the courtyard from afar.
