Chapter 175: Sensibility and Reason
"Yes, I want to use this case to get my parents and family to accept you. At the same time, give Qin Hai'an's side a dismount. ā
"Really?!" When Sheng heard Lu Jisheng take the initiative to mention his parents, he was surprised and delighted, completely ignoring the second half of his sentence.
"yes, really." Lu Jisheng took Sheng's arm and returned to the hospital bed, and the two sat side by side.
Sheng: "So what are you going to do?" I... What do I need to prepare? ā
Lu Jisheng shook his head, but suddenly changed the topic: "Did you see the call recording of Jian Fu that broke out on the Internet yesterday?" ā
"Well, I see. He said that he was going to marry Qin Hai'an. This is also the reason why Qin Hai'an is looking for someone to attack me, right? She was afraid that I would delay her marriage. ā
Lu Jisheng showed a hint of appreciation on his face: "I became smarter when I was sick." ā
"Oh, I'm not stupid."
"Okay~" Lu Jisheng touched Xia Sheng's head, and then said, "Jian Fan announced the marriage through the reporter who called us last time, so the public associated us with Jian Fan's couple." ā
"Well, I know, I saw the comments under the reporter's Weibo, and they were all guessing which of us would get married first."
Lu Jisheng blinked his eyes and asked, "Then who do you want to tie first?" ā
"I..." mentioned marriage, Sheng Yi blushed suddenly, in fact, she had already made up many marriage scenes in her mind during this time.
"Huh?" Lu Jisheng's eyes were ambiguous.
"I... It's all right, it's up to you. ā
Seeing the blushing ears, Lu Jisheng smiled softly: "That's why I have to find a way to make my family accept you as soon as possible." ā
"So what are you going to do?"
"On the day your father's case is heard, I will take my parents with me."
"What!" Sheng was frightened when he heard this, and sat up straight all of a sudden.
"Don't panic." Lu Jisheng pressed her shoulder, "We still have time to prepare." ā
"But...... I, I think your parents would be mindful of what happened in my house..."
Sheng lowered her eyes, and when she thought of exposing the scandal in her family in front of Lu Jisheng's parents, a strong inferiority complex and uneasiness rose in her heart.
"Since they mind, then don't hide it, it's useless. Let them take this opportunity to face up to this matter. ā
"I don't want it!" Sheng dodged Lu Jisheng's gaze, sat down and took a step back, "We... Shall we think of something else? I don't want your parents to see my dad like that......"
Thinking of the scene where Lu Jisheng's parents sat in the auditorium and his father sat in the dock for trial, Sheng resisted from the bottom of his heart and resisted very fiercely.
"Raw." Lu Jisheng put his hands on her shoulders and straightened her body.
Lu Jisheng: "You have to understand that this matter is very important to you and to me. Your father's case is definitely a topic that neither of us can avoid, and in that case, it is better to pick it up. ā
"No way!" Sheng denied it very firmly, but when she looked up and saw Lu Jisheng's face, she shrank back again.
Sheng: "I mean... I can go to court with a lawyer on my own, and of course I will tell you and your parents the results. I know they're unlikely to accept me, but I... I'll try to keep them satisfied. ā
"But we are still on our minds because of this." Lu Jisheng said in a tough tone, "Instead of leaving this problem until after marriage, it is better to solve it right now." ā
"It can't be solved!" Sheng shook his head, his eyes were red, "If they go to the court to observe, they will only remember the fact that I am the daughter of a murderer in their hearts." No one will accept it..."
She raised her tearful face, looked at Lu Jisheng sadly, and her voice choked: "If I were your parents, I wouldn't agree..."
"Raw." Lu Jisheng put his arm around her waist, pulled her in, and patiently explained, "Things have come to this point, we can only move forward." ā
"But ......"
"We need to look at this matter in the eye. I know it's hard for you, but I'll protect you, now and in the future. ā
"No... It's not that simple...", the voice choked.
She suddenly remembered what Liang Beiyao had said to her at the beginning.
"If Mr. Lu is with Miss Chen, you will inevitably be affected by the murder case. It's going to be a black spot for him. No matter what Mr. Lu himself thinks, just the media's questions and reports will make Lu's stock price fall, and the loss is immeasurable. ā
"Do you think you can gain a foothold in high society like me?"
"You can't, you can only drag him to endure the boundless discussion with you, and you can't get the affirmation of his family."
"And, what price does he have to pay for you, for being able to be with you? Falling out with your family, estrangement from people in the circle, and maybe even your business is unstable, do you yourself say that you deserve it? On the contrary, I can bring him what you will never be able to achieve. ā
"You have to trust me." Lu Jisheng leaned into Sheng's ear and said in a deep voice, "It's a short-term pain, and there will be sweetness later." ā
Sheng Se shrunk her shoulders and curled up together, at this time she was shrouded in gloomy emotions, and she couldn't listen to Lu Jisheng's words at all.
She suddenly pushed Lu Jisheng away and said, "Even if we do that, your parents will not agree to our marriage in the future, the long pain is better than the short pain, it is better to ...... it now."
Let's separate from that.
She would rather face the remnants and unbearable of life by herself, rather than let Lu Jisheng's parents see this.
It's just that the latter sentence, she hesitated for a moment and still didn't say it.
Lu Jisheng clearly captured what she wanted to express, and his eyes instantly became extremely sharp: "You want to leave me?" ā
"I ......" Sheng was speechless.
Only then did she come to her senses and think about it.
She loves Lu Jisheng so much, and she knows very well how much she loves her.
Can she really afford the pain of losing Lu Jisheng?
Would you really like to go back to the last time they separated, when she worked several part-time jobs alone to fill the daytime hours, and then fell asleep at night in pain with his pictures?
Lu Jisheng pinched her chin with one hand and forced her to face herself: "Answer me." ā
"Iā" swallowed raw, tears streaming down the corners of her eyes.
She shook her head a little broken: "I don't want to, of course I don't want to!" But what can I do... Dad's case is already a fact, and I want to change the past but can't... I can't do it if I want everyone to forget about it! ā
Lu Jisheng sighed lightly, then hugged Sheng into his arms and stroked her shoulder to comfort her.
Sheng simply covered his face with his hands and leaned on Lu Jisheng's shoulders and cried.
"I really want to marry you, I've been thinking about it since you told that reporter that we were going to get married. But when I think about it, I feel like I'm not worthy of you... You deserve better, with me you'll only be dragged down.
I don't want things to be like that, so I've been deliberately not thinking about how your parents will react and just fantasizing about our wedding...
But I still know in my heart that they won't let you want me... Because I know that if I were them I wouldn't agree ... But I'd love to see them accept me. Sometimes I wonder why I fantasize about having someone else do something I can't do myself. It's contradictory and selfish, but I just can't help but fantasize about it. ā
However, when Lu Jisheng proposed to let his parents go to the court to observe, he completely shattered the illusion that he had been living for so long.
Reality is always cold and biting.
She instinctively refused to face this pain.
Because he was afraid of the consequences of doing so, he would make himself more unbearable in the eyes of his parents.
Lu Jisheng patted her on the shoulder and listened to her quietly.
He paused for a moment to wait for his emotions to calm down a little, and then said, "It takes courage to turn fantasy into reality. ā
Crying was a little tired, and leaned on his shoulder weakly.
"I understand your distress, you are afraid, if you do that, my parents still don't want to accept you, right?"
Sheng nodded wordlessly, his hair brushing against Lu Jisheng's chin.
"But you forgot that there was me." Lu Jisheng held her hand, "It's a big gamble for you, and it's the same for me." I'm willing to share with you the consequences of losing the bet. Would you like to? ā
Sheng slowly sat up with a surprised expression, and looked directly into Lu Jisheng's determined eyes.
She paused for a few seconds before she said, "Yes, of course I do." ā
She quickly grabbed Lu Jisheng's hand, and her fingers ran over his empty left ring finger: "If I say I do, you... Would you like to wear your wedding ring with me? ā
"Of course." Lu Jisheng smiled and kissed her forehead, "For you, I am willing to do anything." ā
