Chapter 707
“To me, your daughter is a responsibility that I have to bear. She is also the woman that I love and want to marry. Whether it’s because of responsibility or love, I can’t let go of her. I beg father-in-law to fulfill my wish.”
Tong Lu felt that surfing was too difficult to learn. After choking on the water a few times, she walked to the beach decisively. When she saw Yan Shuo surfing alone, she leaned back on the recliner and hid under the parasol, lazily enjoying the sea breeze.
However, it did not feel good to be wet. She went back to the villa after lying down for a while. She saw that Leng Yejin and her father were playing chess. Her mother was also sitting by the side watching. She went to pour herself a glass of water and drank from it as she went over to watch the game.
There was a document placed next to the go board. Tong Lu glanced at it unintentionally. She took it and read it again in detail. She pursed her lips.
It was no wonder that when she went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to check her marriage status, it was written that she was married. So there was such an agreement. At that time, she had suspected that she was married to Leng Yejin. However, when she found out that Leng Yejin was single, she did not dare to think too much about it.
This man had seen all the hardships and heartache she had gone through. She didn’t even know how many times he had laughed at her. Thinking about it made her feel so angry.
“So, am I married or single now?” Tong Lu tilted her head and asked the man who was playing chess.
Leng Yejin raised his hand and ruffled her hair. He furrowed his eyebrows.”Go and dry your hair.”
“Then, if we don’t register within six years, will I be able to resume my status as a single noble? Am I married or not?” Tong Lu chased after him relentlessly.
“Be careful not to catch a cold.”
Tong Lu pursed her lips. Yes, sir! she answered. uncle!
After he finished speaking, he swaggered away with a hint of childishness.
Leng Yejin furrowed his brows. This woman actually called him ‘little uncle’. He wanted to chase after her, but his in-laws were present, so he could not leave.
His gaze followed her back and gradually deepened.
Her clothes were wet and stuck to her back, showing her S-shaped curve, which made people’s hearts itch.
Tong Lu went upstairs to change into a fresh set of clothes. She dried her hair and sat in front of the dressing table to trim her nails. She realized that the man had not returned the proposal ring to her. Was he not going to return it?
When she went downstairs, he was playing chess with her father. She couldn’t ask him for it openly, so she winked at him a few times, but he didn’t know how to accept it.
Tong Lu rested her chin on her hand and sat in the living room to watch television. Mrs. Yin was watching television with her. Mrs. President called her for the third time. Tong Lu thought about picking up the call, but Mrs. Yin snatched the phone away from her and began to chat with her.
Now that things had come to this, in order to quell the negative public opinion, the Leng family would definitely want to marry her precious daughter, and the sooner the better. However, Mrs. Yin did not want her daughter to suffer. No matter what, the one who had caused Lulu to suffer in the first place was the president’s son.
It was either this son or that son. Even if these two sons had just been acknowledged not long ago, it would be difficult to escape responsibility.
As a girl, her excellent studies had been destroyed. She had to study while raising a child for someone else. Madam President had to give her a satisfactory explanation to ensure that no one in her in-laws ‘family would ever say that she was trying to climb up the social ladder of the Leng family!
This ” social climb ” was designed by the children of the Leng family. Lulu didn’t beg for it.
