superficial couple
Chu Rong was still a little hesitant to have close contact with him, and was stunned when he saw the old man with an oxygen tube in the room. The old man who was so vigorous not long ago had suddenly become so weak, as if his life would disappear with the wind at any time. There was a strong sense of unreality.
"Come here, child." The old man waved to Chu Rong.
Chu Rong walked forward without hesitation and half-knelt in front of her. "Old lady, I'm sorry, I couldn't save the child..."
"Haha, silly child, your physical condition is not good to begin with. You are lucky to be pregnant. I don't ask for anything else, I just hope that you and Yun'er can live a good life, cough cough!"
Chu Rong couldn't directly say no, but instead expressed his worries: "His and my personalities clash, and... I have no plans to get married. If he's with me, he'll be annoyed every day, and he's definitely not happy."
Su Xingyun: "Who said I'm unhappy! You're the omega I can accept the most, and we've had feelings for each other before. We can't live without each other. Marriage is the best choice, and it's also grandma's greatest wish."
"Chu Rong, listen to me... Children are the fruit of love. Not having children doesn't mean you don't have feelings for each other. This is what the Su family owes you. If you don't get married, I won't be able to rest in peace even if I die just watching you struggling alone."
"Old lady, you're too kind. The Su family doesn't owe me anything. I left for other reasons..."
"Needless to say, Yun'er abandoned you, which was inherently unkind. Furthermore, he neglected you during your pregnancy, ultimately leading to a miscarriage. Ultimately, he's not innocent." The old lady glared at her with her sharp eyes and shouted, "You traitorous grandson, kneel down!"
Su Xingyun knelt down straight, staring at Chu Rong with a stubborn look.
The old lady held Chu Rong's hand tightly, looked into his surprised eyes and said, "I am an old woman with a disabled leg and cannot enforce the family law. You can do it on my behalf. The whip is under the bed, prepared for you. Go for it!"
Chu Rong lowered his head and took out the heavy box, only to discover that there were dozens of long whips inside, each with barbs. If they were whipped, they would definitely tear the skin and flesh apart!
"No, no, old lady, it's not that serious. I have already forgiven Su Xingyun..."
"No!" The old lady was furious. "Su Xingyun is a member of the Su family, and an alpha, and yet he did something so contrary to our ancestors' benevolence and righteousness. Not only will I enforce the family law, but I will also expose his crimes to the public and condemn him!"
Chu Rong was shocked. Is it that serious?
The other relatives tried to dissuade him after a moment of shock: "Wait, old lady, why would you want to ruin your reputation? Besides, Su Xingyun is also the face of the company. If this gets out of hand, it will also affect the Su family!"
"Yes, old lady, Xingyun is still young. If he does something wrong, he won't do it again if he is taught a lesson. Why make things difficult for your own grandson?"
“Get out!”
The relatives outside the door were yelled back by the old lady. Her chest was heaving with anger and the medical equipment was beeping non-stop. Chu Rong quickly rang the bell to call the nurse.
The nurse gave the old man blood pressure medication and sternly warned him: "What's wrong with you family members? The old man is so angry that his blood pressure is high, but you don't comfort him. Do you have to wait until the machine beeps before calling the nurse?"
"Nurse, please go out first. I'll talk to them."
The nurse looked at Chu Rong and Su Xingyun who was kneeling on the ground with some concern. Knowing that it was not appropriate to interfere in other people's family affairs, she quickly walked out.
Chu Rong was frightened by the nurse's accusatory gaze and stepped forward to appease the old lady. "Do you have to marry me to make it up to me? But I can't have children, and I don't want to."
The old lady suddenly lost her spirit and lay back down, saying gloomily, "This is all for your own good. After all, you are the most compatible omega and alpha. If you give up your mark, the consequences... I'm afraid you can't bear it. Chu Rong, you don't hate Su Xingyun, right? Just think of it as an old woman begging you to try to get along with him for a while. If it doesn't work, I won't force you."
…
Chu Rong really couldn't bear to refuse the old man. He paced in the corridor, rubbing his index and middle fingers. Whenever he was upset, he wanted to touch the cigarette. He had given up this bad habit a long time ago. He didn't even have food to eat, so how could he have money to buy cigarettes?
Even though he had successfully kicked his bad habit, he still occasionally wanted to grab something to distract himself. He took out his phone and played with it unconsciously when he heard a voice from behind him: "Mr. Chu Rong?"
Chu Rong turned around and saw that it was his assistant Meng Hai, and then looked behind him.
Meng Hai: "Don't look, the boss hasn't come yet, he's still kneeling."
Chu Rong was shocked: "Are your rich family rules so strict?"
"Oh, Boss and I grew up together. To be honest, I've rarely seen the old lady get so angry. This is also the first time I've seen the Su family rules."
"Hitting people is wrong... Even if you want to educate them, corporal punishment is not allowed, right?" Chu Rong did not intend to defend Su Xingyun. He grew up in a shabby manner and did not read many books, but he knew that hurting others was illegal.
Meng Hai thought there was a chance, so he acted awkwardly. "There's nothing we can do about it. He won't learn his lesson without a beating. And with Boss's stubborn personality, he'll quickly forget what he's been told. If we don't give him a few more scars, he'll do it again! But Mr. Chu Rong, don't worry about him. Boss is the strongest alpha. As long as he survives, his life is safe."
Why are you putting it here?
Chu Rong suddenly laughed out loud, but when he saw Su Xingyun's poker face, he choked immediately.
His expression changed so quickly that Su Xingyun, who was trying to be nice to him, turned even colder. His face was cold and sharp, and when expressionless, it was as sharp as a blade. His cold and serious black eyes held an unspeakable anger, and even a second of looking at him would be cut.
"It's time to go back."
Su Xingyun turned and walked away, and Chu Rong and his assistant followed him silently. While riding the elevator, Su Xingyun, who had been kneeling for too long, became unstable and swayed, almost falling into Chu Rong's arms.
The assistant wanted to reach out and support him, but couldn't bear to ruin such a good opportunity, so he assisted him from the side: "Boss! You've been busy with Mr. Chu Rong's affairs for several days without a rest. You must be feeling unwell after kneeling for so long. Why don't we go back and see a doctor!"
"Don't talk too much, Meng Hai, I'm fine... um!" Su Xingyun covered his head and backed away, bumping into Chu Rong. He subconsciously tried to distance himself, but was supported by the omega instead.
"Why would you ruin your body for no reason? It's not like you're going to be preparing for my funeral, so why bother?"
The assistant wiped away tears and said, "It's to arrange the funeral for our young master."
Chu Rong was silent for a while before he said, "Is it... a boy?"
Su Xingyun was supported by him, and with difficulty turned his face away, he said, "To be more precise, it's a high-quality alpha. The child inherited my excellent genes, but it also plundered your nutrition excessively. If you had recuperated in the Su family from the beginning, it wouldn't have happened... Now that things have come to this, there's no point in saying anything!"
Chu Rong felt something was wrong when he heard his trembling voice. He lowered his head to look at his red eyes and asked, "Are you crying?"
Su Xingyun clenched his fists and pushed him away, leaning against the wall, "Who is crying? I'm not crying! The big alpha is a tough guy and won't shed tears easily!" He blinked and tears rolled down.
He was indeed tough on the outside but soft on the inside. Chu Rong wanted to laugh at him, but when he thought of the child, he couldn't smile and fell silent.
The private hospital was just behind the Su family mansion, and the return journey took only five minutes. As soon as Chu Rong went upstairs, the diligent assistant called him and said, "The boss has equipped you with a computer room. You can live broadcast freely."
"How did he know I was live streaming? Oh, it turned out to be him who blocked my account!"
"No, no, the boss originally gave you a gift, but for some reason, your live broadcast room was banned. Maybe you were reported, or maybe you didn't use your real name! After all, it's quite sensitive for an omega to do a live broadcast, let alone something that's just a little too close to the truth."
The assistant spoke nervously, fearing that he would be found out of lying.
Chu Rong was careless and just thought that Alpha was feeling guilty about Su Xingyun being number one on the list. He couldn't see that Alpha was a decent person and also liked to watch this kind of live broadcast.
"Okay, then my live broadcast room won't be blocked again, right?"
"No, I've promoted you to a contracted guest. As long as you sign the contract, you'll get extra commission!"
"This kind of benefit should be conditional?"
"The condition is that you become a member of the Su family, that is, marry me, and you will also have the right to enjoy the family property that I can inherit." Su Xingyun took off his suit jacket and walked over, holding a cup of red date and wolfberry tea in his hand, which was inconsistent with his youthful appearance.
Chu Rong smiled and said, "I'm really flattered by such a great benefit. I don't want to be a villain who sells myself out for profit. Let's make a deal. Since you're marrying me for the old lady, then marry me. I'm honest and I'm not afraid of you cheating me. But once the old lady recovers from her illness, we can divorce peacefully. How about that? I think this time is enough for you to find another omega who is satisfactory and can produce high-quality offspring."
Su Xingyun's breathing stagnated, and she pursed her thin lips again and again, staring into his eyes without blinking. After a while, she nodded, "Okay, let's do as you say and be a nominal couple."
Maybe it was an illusion, but I felt like he was gritting his teeth when he spoke.
"Then it's a deal. Don't disturb each other unless you're in estrus. I'll take care of my own business first." Chu Rong, who didn't want to face the alpha, quickly retreated into the room.
As he ran away, the air immediately turned cold. The assistant trembled: "Boss?"
"Bang!" The glass water cup in Su Xingyun's hand shattered into pieces.
"Boss, are you okay?"
He waved his hand nonchalantly, "It was an accident, clean it up."
"But your hand!"
Su Xingyun then noticed a large fragment embedded in his palm, blood and water dripping continuously. Strange, why didn't he feel any pain?
Chu Rong returned to his room and lay down, staring blankly at the ceiling.
It’s my first time getting married, so I’m a little nervous.
Although it was a fake marriage, the other party was of the same sex as him and was his ex-girlfriend with whom he had a complicated relationship. She also had some intention of getting back together with him.
Reconciliation? Impossible?
He left so decisively, he must have let it go. Could it be... that their old love has rekindled?
Chu Rong couldn't figure it out over and over again, and Su Xingyun was also very confused.
Although the marriage was not real, he did not intend to rush into it and had to have a grand wedding.
But what should I do if it’s my first marriage?
