Chapter 46 trapping
In the process of discussing the details of the dress with the designer, Su Yan was very absent-minded and didn’t speak much. Sometimes the designer asked her for her opinion, but she couldn’t answer it, because she didn’t understand what they were asking, so she had to be silent. Say sorry, and then trouble people to ask again.
She also didn’t look at or talk to Bai Xingfan, and kept avoiding his gaze.
Because she didn’t know how to face him.
If Xie Yu’s purpose is to alienate her relationship with Bai Xingfan, then he seems to have successfully achieved this.
She could no longer trust him wholeheartedly, and began to doubt him constantly, and even thought of many details that had been overlooked before, for example, how did he know that she was getting married at that time? Is it really through the circle of friends? But in the process of dating, she found out that he was actually a person who didn’t brush much on Moments, because he was so busy with work that he didn’t have time to brush such boring things.
What’s more, they had not been in contact for nearly half a year at that time, who would pay attention to the marriage news of a friend who had not been in contact for half a year?
Unless, he has been watching her.
Is it because of pure liking? Or for some other purpose?
And at the time in the hospital, why were the Xie family so afraid of him? His few words frightened Xie Yu’s mother and uncle into disarray. What did those three words mean? Is it the unspeakable scandal of the Xie family? Why did he know so much about the Xie family scandal?
She had never thought about it so much before, because she had never doubted him, but once the seeds of doubt were put into the bottom of her heart, they would quickly take root and sprout, making her unable to ignore them, and constantly forcing her to dig some things that she hadn’t noticed in the past. the details, and start to peel the cocoon.
As more and more details were excavated, the more profound her suspicion of him became.
It seemed that all the details were proving one thing to her: he must have kept something from her about the wedding.
But she didn’t dare to ask him the truth, and she didn’t dare to go to other relevant parties for verification, because she was afraid of knowing the truth – if the perpetrator was really him, then her life and cognition would be completely subverted.
She didn’t dare to believe that the man she loved was such a terrifying person, and she couldn’t accept that the torture and pain she had suffered were all thanks to him.
The Bai Xingfan she loves is gentle and considerate, and she is considerate and caring for her. It can even be said that she holds her in the palm of her hand to dote on her, how could she be willing to plot against her and hurt her?
He won’t.
He must be reluctant.
In this way, a scale was created in her heart, with trust on one side and doubt on the other, but neither side could completely stand her ground, so she began to jump back and forth on both sides of the scale, and the result was Tired and exhausted.
Because of her absent-mindedness, this meeting with the designer ended quickly.
On the way back, the sky was still gloomy and the rain continued.
Su Yan no longer had the excitement and anticipation that she had when she came, and looked out of the car window without saying a word.
The rain fell very fast, crackling on the car window, forming a stream of water, which then converged into a layer of water curtain, completely covering the car window and distorting the scenery outside the window.
Su Yan’s pupils gradually lost focus, her eyes were dull and empty, and a lingering thought lingered in her mind: If this rain can continue until tomorrow and get worse, will she have an excuse for not getting the certificate?
She doesn’t dare to marry him anymore…
After being uneasy for a long time, Su Yan finally summoned the courage to speak: “Tomorrow, if it rains, can we go to collect the certificate another day?” In order to make her statement stand up, she added, “I don’t like it. Rainy days are unlucky.”
“sure.”
Bai Xingfan’s tone was very gentle, completely beyond Su Yan’s expectations.
She turned her face suddenly and looked at him in disbelief—she originally thought that he would be very angry, but did not expect to agree to her so easily?
Bai Xingfan’s expression was as gentle as always: “I will respect all your decisions, but marriage is not a matter between the two of us, and I am worried that the elders will be unhappy.”
This is true.
Marriage is a matter between two families. The date for obtaining the certificate is already set, and it cannot be said that it should be changed. Otherwise, how can you explain it to the elders?
Su Yan suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and was particularly at a loss, not knowing what to do.
She loves him, but doubts him, so she doesn’t dare to give herself away easily.
Just when she was at a loss, she heard Bai Xingfan say: “My family will respect your decision, you don’t have to worry about them. As for the uncles and aunts, you need to persuade them.”
He is, under the steps for her?
Su Yan was a little surprised, but at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and immediately said: “Don’t worry, I will definitely make it clear to my parents.”
“Um.”
Su Yan suddenly felt a sense of relief, like a bird breaking out of its cage.
Bai Xingfan looked at her silently, and after a while, he lightly opened his thin lips: “You really don’t want to get married?”
His pupils were dark and deep, like an abyss. Su Yan was flustered and subconsciously looked away, explaining incoherently: “No no, yes, I, I just hate, hate rainy days.”
Bai Xingfan looked light: “I understand.”
However, the more indifferent his reaction was, the more frightened Su Yan became, like a frightened bird.
On the way that followed, there was no more dialogue between the two of them, and the atmosphere in the car was suffocating.
The driver drove the car directly into the underground parking lot of the Golden Lanwan Community, and parked the car under the floor where Su Yan and his family lived.
Before the car stopped, Su Yan opened the car door and did not dare to look at Bai Xingfan. She lowered her head and hurriedly said, “I’m leaving, bye.” Then she quickly got out of the car and turned towards Bai Xingfan without looking back. The elevator went over, and the footsteps were eager and fast, as if escaping from something.
Bai Xingfan sat in the car, staring blankly at her fading back, and lightly tapped the armrest with his right index finger.
After her figure disappeared, he put down the baffle between the front and rear rows, and ordered the driver with a cold voice: “At seven-thirty tomorrow morning, come pick up your wife on time.”
He was not at all worried that she would break her promise.
Whether she wanted to or not, she had to marry him.
After Su Yan returned home, she locked herself in the room.
She needs to be calm.
However, the more calm, the more suspicious.
Bai Xingfan’s body was full of doubts, which made her unable to trust him at all, and even began to fear him.
A certain belief in her heart began to fall apart, and she could no longer deceive herself.
She must not marry him until she finds out the truth.
Today, as usual, only she and her mother are at home.
During lunch, Su Yan considered for a long time, and finally said, “Mom, I want to push back the day of getting the certificate.”
Liu Xiang was holding the vegetables for a while, and looked at his daughter in amazement: “What’s wrong?”
Su Yan couldn’t tell the truth, so she had to find a high-sounding excuse: “I’m a little afraid of marriage, I’m not mentally prepared.”
Liu Xiang frowned tightly, and put down his chopsticks angrily: “Then you shouldn’t have promised to get married in the first place! Now that it’s coming to an end, you only say that you are afraid of marriage and want to go back on it. This is not a joke. What? What do you want the Bai family to think?”
Su Yan understood what her mother was worried about, but her attitude was also firm: “You don’t have to worry about this, I have already discussed it with Xingfan.”
Liu Xiang hurriedly asked, “What did Xingfan say?”
Su Yan: “He, he respects me a lot, but he is worried that you will think too much, so let me have a good discussion with you.”
Liu Xiang was not at ease: “Does he really say that?”
Su Yan nodded: “Well, he didn’t force me. As for his family, he would also persuade me.”
Liu Xiang was silent for a long time, and finally heaved a long sigh, and his tone revealed all kinds of helplessness: “Yan Yan, there is something I didn’t want to tell you, but, but, hey… why did you suddenly change your mind? Before going out this morning Isn’t it alright?”
Su Yan was stunned for a moment, a bad premonition suddenly appeared in her heart, and looked at her mother uneasily: “What’s the matter?”
With a bitter look on Liu Xiang’s face, he sighed again and had to confess to his daughter: “Something happened to your father’s company half a month ago, and the investor suddenly said that they would withdraw their capital. If you really let him withdraw, the company’s capital chain will definitely be broken, and the next step is to declare bankruptcy. Your father can only ask someone to help him, and begged grandfather and grandma’s trustee to intercede, but no one was willing to help him. These days, it’s good not to fall into the hole, so how dare you expect others to help you in the snow? In the end, your dad had to go to Xingfan…”
Before he could finish speaking, Liu Xiang’s eyes became red, and his voice became choked: “He doesn’t want to go to Bai Xingfan, he doesn’t want to make you embarrassed, and he doesn’t want you to be inferior because of this matter, and he will look at his in-law’s family in the future. , but he can’t do anything about it, there are still so many employees under him, everyone has to support their families, and he has to be responsible for those employees.”
As he spoke, Liu Xiang began to cry, and the low sobbing sound was filled with guilt and self-blame for his daughter, as well as the helplessness of unpredictable world events.
The air in the restaurant seemed to be getting thinner and thinner. Su Yan gradually felt a sense of suffocation and began to lose her breath. It seemed like a big hand was strangling her neck, not only locking her throat, Still telling her in such a tough way, she can’t escape at all.
She looked at her mother dumbfounded. After a long time, she took a deep breath and tried her best to keep her calm: “Why do investors withdraw their capital?”
Liu Xiang shook his head: “I don’t know either, who can tell what’s going on in the business world?”
Su Yan was noncommittal and asked again, “Have you finally withdrawn your capital?”
Liu Xiang wiped his tears: “Withdrew, Xingfan helped Dad fill the vacancy in the capital chain.”
Su Yan clenched her fists subconsciously, her lips trembling slightly: “So, he, he is the major shareholder of the company now?”
Liu Xiang: “That’s for sure. Your dad can’t accept such a big favor without any reason.”
Su Yan: “…”
She completely fell into despair, her expression became more and more sluggish and empty, and her whole body seemed to be numb.
Liu Xiang looked at his daughter with shame: “I and your dad didn’t tell you about this, just because I was worried that you would be embarrassed, and I didn’t want to affect your relationship with Xingfan because of this, but who knows, you Why did you change your mind all of a sudden? I’m worried now that Xingfan will think wildly, thinking that our family will cross the river and demolish the bridge…”
Su Yan knew that she had been forced into a desperate situation, and Bai Xingfan did not give her a chance to choose at all.
Tomorrow, she must marry him.
A sense of grievance and helplessness filled her heart in an instant. She wanted to cry loudly, but she didn’t dare to cry, nor could she cry in front of her mother, otherwise her mother would feel bad for her and feel uncomfortable.
She clenched her teeth to hold back her tears, stood up from the stool, and said at the same time, “Don’t worry, our relationship is very good. We will go to collect the certificate with him tomorrow as originally planned.” After speaking, she turned and left. restaurant.
After returning to the room, she locked the door and burst into tears in an instant.
I wanted to cry loudly, but I was afraid of being heard by my mother, so I could only bite my arm hard and swallow the cry back into my stomach.
Really aggrieved.
He has been lying to her and plotting against her.
The real Bai Xingfan is the real Bai Xingfan who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals. What he showed her before was all a disguise, just to trap her.
She thought he was holding herself in the palm of his hand, but in fact he locked her in a cage.
This cage was made of roses, so gorgeous and attractive, she was blinded, and she got into it unsuspectingly. She thought it was a warm nest, but it was actually full of thorns, forcing her to perch on the flowers, otherwise will be stabbed all over.
She couldn’t fly out either because the cage door was closed the moment she flew in.
She could only be obedient, stand obediently on the rose, and be a nightingale for him to admire and play with.
