Using Marriage as Bait - Chapter 10

    Lin Xiyu was surprised, she didn’t expect that someone like Lu Junting could be soft and coaxing.

    In fact, Lin Xiyu just wanted to vent. After venting, she felt much better. She quickly comforted herself that life would get better. Is life smooth sailing? Maybe after this hurdle, her life will be better?

    Lin Xiyu wiped away her tears, “I’m fine, just cry.”

    Seeing that Lu Junting held back his tears, he breathed a sigh of relief. He leaned back in the chair and said, “Don’t be afraid, I will do my best to help you.”

    Lin Xiyu nodded and asked, “What should I do next?”

    Lu Junting glanced at her and said, “Since it can’t be destroyed, let’s give birth to the child with peace of mind.”

    “Do you need to tell Aunt Yao about them?”

    “I can’t hide it.”

    In other words, not only Aunt Yao, but also the rest of the Lu family should know?

    “How do I tell them?”

    “Let’s just say we were dating and accidentally got pregnant.”

    Lin Xiyu knew that Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu were urging Lu Junting to get married. If he said that, she was still pregnant, and Mrs. Lu would arrange for them to get married.

    Lin Xiyu asked nervously: “If grandma and they want to get married…”

    “Then get it, don’t you also want to get pregnant out of wedlock?”

    That’s right, but when she thinks of marrying Lu Junting, she always finds it strange that they don’t have a common language. Depressed feeling.

      Anyway, they have had children, and it seems better not to be married.

      If the Lu family needs it, she can never have contact with this child.

    “Let’s just leave it alone for now, I’ll think about it.”

    “What else do you need to think about?” Lu Junting asked her.

    “I was wondering if I should tell the truth.”

    “…”

    “I know.”

    Lu Junting always sent her to the research institute where she worked. Lin Xiyu was absent-minded and went to work for a few days. In a blink of an eye, it was the weekend. Lin Xiyu returned to Lu’s house. She is now in a dilemma. Should she marry Lu Junting for the sake of her child, or when she has a child, she will completely abandon her relationship with Lu Junting. She didn’t want to marry Lu Junting, but if she didn’t get married, she would have to abandon the child.

    Her parents’ job is to save the children who were abandoned by their parents, but as their daughter, one day she will abandon her own child. As Lu Junting said, her parents have been Running around for the abandoned child, but unable to save his grandson.

    She was tangled to death.

    But this matter can’t be concealed, how on earth did she say this. Seeing that she stayed in the room every day and didn’t go out, Lu Yuan forced her to go out for a walk.

    “It’s rare that you stay at home on weekends. If you don’t go out, you’re going to get moldy. How come you’ve become so housebound now?” Lu Yuan squinted at her, “Tell me the truth. , are you hiding something from me?”

    “What can I have on my mind?”

    The Lu family’s garden is quite large and has several styles. Lu Yuan took her to visit the Lotus Garden, which is Chinese-style, with a winding corridor on the pond. The whole pond is covered with green lotus leaves, sometimes dotted with a few pink buds. Some withered lotus flowers have grown lotus roots, and fish are shuttled under the lotus leaves. Occasionally a lake wind blows, bringing a burst of Refreshing coolness.

    Across the corridor is a lily garden. Lin Xiyu used to like to read in the garden. A pavilion was built in the garden. There were several people sitting in the pavilion. Lin Xiyu saw Lu Junting sitting in the crowd at a glance.

    Sit next to Mr. Lu, the second and third uncles of the Lu family, sitting among the elders, but Lu Junting was not at all embarrassed. They are all elders, and he has no sense of disobedience when he sits in it.

    Today happened to be the weekend, and everyone didn’t go to work, so those few people sat in the booth drinking tea and talking about things. But Lin Xiyu finds it strange that Lu Junting rarely comes back even on weekends. Why did he come back on purpose today?

    Lu Yuan also saw them, she was also surprised, “Why is my eldest brother back? Did he arrange a blind date again?”

    Lu Junting was sitting diagonally opposite them. He took a sip from a cup of tea and swept his eyes to this side at will. Lin Xiyu froze all over, she hurriedly avoided her eyes and pretended not to see it. He, pulled Lu Yuan and left.

    She feels embarrassed when she sees Lu Junting now, especially when she thinks that she is still pregnant with his child. So he subconsciously wanted to hide from the pair.

    The two left the lotus pond and passed under the wisteria trellis. The entire corridor was wrapped in wisteria flowers. It was cool and comfortable to walk below. A stone table stone was placed in a wider corridor. Lu Yuan said, “Let’s sit here for a while, and it’s cool here. It’s better to be in the yard blowing the wind than staying at home and being stuffy.”

    There is still a distance from Lily Garden, so Lin Xiyu agreed. Lu Yuan felt that it was boring to sit still, so she went to make a pot of coffee, but it felt a little monotonous when she brought it, so Lu Yuan ran to get some snacks.

    Lin Xiyu poured a cup of coffee with ice cubes beside her, she threw a few pieces in and was about to drink it, but a hand suddenly reached out and took her coffee cup away. Lin Xiyu looked back subconsciously, but saw Lu Junting standing next to her at some point, holding the coffee cup and pouring out a cup of coffee.

    How did he come here?

    Lin Xiyu tried her best to make her expression look natural, and greeted, “Brother Junting? Why are you here?”

    “Why do I drink coffee when I’m pregnant?”

    I don’t know if it was Lin Xiyu’s illusion, she felt a little anger in Lu Junting’s eyebrows.

    Lin Xiyu was taken aback by what he said, she was afraid of being heard that she was pregnant, she subconsciously glanced around, there was no one, she breathed a sigh of relief: Can’t I drink coffee when I’m pregnant?”

    “No.” Lu Junting answered succinctly and asked, “Have you eaten anything indiscriminately during this time, such as medicine, wine, and coffee.”

    Lin Xiyu thought about it and said, “No.”

    “More attention in the future.”

    He seems to be caring about her? Lin Xiyu has to feel weird that he cares about him, or he just cares about the child in her womb, which is also his child after all.

    Lin Xiyu felt awkward, and smiled dryly: “Okay, I see.”

    “Why are you hiding from me?”

    “…”

    Lin Xiyu looked at him, today he is wearing very casual clothes, a pair of business-style short sleeves, a pair of casual trousers, and casual shoes.

    It’s not as serious and serious as a suit and leather shoes, but this casual outfit does not reduce his aura at all, but because it is less wrapped in the seriousness of the suit, the face looks more The suit should be handsome. Especially at this moment, standing under the wisteria trellis, the light shines in bunches through the gap, and the mottles fall on his face, deepening the shadow on his face. The contours of the facial features are more three-dimensional, especially the depth of the eyes, which is very charming.

    Lin Xiyu tried her best not to look so guilty, she said, “No.”

    “You didn’t hide from me, why did you leave as soon as you saw me?”

    His expression was natural, but he didn’t want to question her, he seemed to be just curious, Lin Xiyu thought, didn’t she leave every time she saw him before? I didn’t care about it before and now I care about it again? Just because she was pregnant with his child?

    “Aren’t you talking about business? I’m afraid to disturb you.”

    He nodded lightly, and then confessed, “Pay attention to your diet.”

    “Okay, I see.”

    Lin Xiyu: “…”

    The rustling wind blew, and the hot summer wind was mixed with a burst of floral fragrance, and he turned and left in this burst of floral fragrance.

    Not long after Lu Junting left, Lu Yuan came over with a bunch of snacks. She placed the snacks on the plate and said, “It’s just afternoon tea.”

    Lu Yuan was about to help her pour coffee, Lin Xiyu said, “I don’t drink anymore, I just drank a cup, and I can’t sleep at night after drinking too much.”

    Seeing that her glass was empty, Lu Yuan didn’t ask her for it. She suddenly said to her with a mysterious expression: “You know what? My grandma gave my elder brother a blind date again.”

    “Huh? So Brother Jun Ting came back this time for a blind date?”

     “No, it was my grandma who called the Liang family when she saw him coming back suddenly, and asked Miss Liang to come and play, just for them to meet.”

    Lin Xiyu nodded.

    “My eldest brother doesn’t know about this, so you can’t tell him.”

    “What did I tell him, and I don’t know him well.”

    “Same.”

    The two sat here for a while, Zhang Yao came to look for them, “You two hide. Grandma told you to come and accompany the guests, so don’t eat.”

    Lu Yuan said, “Why let us accompany you?”

    “You said that young people have a common topic, so don’t dawdle. Grandma has already called someone to look for it.”

    Lin Xiyu and Lu Yuan went to the main house with Zhang Yao. The main house of the Lu family is in Chinese style, and the furniture is all high-quality mahogany furniture. There are solemn and exquisite hollow carvings everywhere. Understated and luxurious.

    Old Mrs. Lu was sitting on the sofa, and Miss Liang was sitting next to her. Lin Xiyu and Lu Yuan were chatting when they entered.

    The two sat down on the sofa opposite Miss Liang, and Mrs. Lu introduced them to each other and said with a smile, “You young people have something to say, this old woman has derailed from the times, I don’t know what to talk to you about.”

    Miss Liang said: “Grandma, don’t say that, I have benefited a lot from chatting with you.”

    The old lady Lu was very amused and said, “I heard that you have entered the Ministry of Foreign Affairs now?”

    “I’ve only been here for a few years, and now I’m mainly studying.”

    “You are so smart and excellent, you will definitely have a bright future.”

    Miss Liang smiled softly and reservedly, “It’s good news for the old lady.”

    Ms. Liang has long hair and clear bones on her face. She is the kind of beauty with bone-like beauty. Her temperament and family background are also very compatible with Lu Junting, and she is also excellent in person and can enter the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. , the ability is not bad.

    Such a woman can probably hold back a man like Lu Junting.

    While she was talking, she saw several people walking in at the door. Lin Xiyu was in a daze and felt that her elbow was bumped by Lu Yuan next to her. She glanced at her, and Lu Yuan looked at her. With a wink, Lin Xiyu followed her line of sight and saw that the Jiang Lisu family came in.

    Jiang Lisu walked at the forefront, followed by Lu Junfeng and Yan Yutong.

    What day is it today, even a group of people are here.

    Jiang Lisu walked in and smiled: “I heard that there are guests coming, come and join in the fun.”

    Old Mrs. Lu and Miss Liang introduced each other in the future, Jiang Lisu took the gift from Yan Yutong behind her and said: “This child Yutong is sensible, I said that coming here is like coming from home , people still prepare so many things, and last time you ate the dragon beard cake that you said was delicious, so I brought you some more.”

    The old lady Lu smiled: “Yutong has a heart.”

    Jiang Lisu said: “This child is just likable.”

    After she said this, she glanced at Lin Xiyu subconsciously. Lin Xiyu noticed that Jiang Lisu’s eyes had a faint coolness in the wind.

    Lin Xiyu felt inexplicable.

    Jiang Lisu works in a bank. People who deal with money every day will try to maximize the benefits of everything. Jiang Lisu can understand that she wants to choose the most beneficial daughter-in-law, Lin Xiyu, after all, she has no father now Without a mother, he couldn’t really help Lu Junfeng.

    However, Jiang Lisu should praise people, what’s the matter with giving her this look, haven’t she and Lu Junfeng broke up? It felt as if he was deliberately praising Yan Yutong for showing her.

    This guy is really boring.

    Jiang Lisu deliberately got close to Miss Liang and sat next to her, while Lu Junfeng and Yan Yutong sat next to her, coincidentally opposite Lin Xiyu.

    Since he sat down, Lu Junfeng’s eyes fell on Lin Xiyu, his eyes were complicated. Yan Yutong didn’t know if he found something, but he deliberately declared his sovereignty, holding his arm and whispering in Lu Junfeng’s ear.

    Lin Xiyu has a lot of things that have not been resolved, and has no intention to appreciate the subtlety between the two of them.

    At this moment, Lu Yuan said, “My eldest brother and the others are back.”

    Lin Xiyu looked at the door and saw a few people drinking tea in the lily flower pavilion walking in, and Lu Junting just walked to the front.
