âIâm so stupid. I thought I found a way out, but I didnât expect to walk into someone elseâs trap.â
Tong Lu mumbled to herself. She suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. She clenched her fists tightly. She was shocked, and her entire body turned cold.âMy step-mother might have done this to get Tong Juan into Yale. I can understand why she wants to see me suffer! Why did Shuo do this? Why did Leng Yejin do this? Why did they make a fool of me?â
âI sincerely raised Shanshan, grateful that they provided me with education and living expenses, but in the end, I found out that they had a share in causing me to be out of school. Grandmaâs illness isnât just a simple illness, how can a personâs heart be so terrifying?â
if grandma wasnât sick, if I didnât fail the college entrance exam, I would have gone to Yale to study. I could have completed my studies with the scholarship. I would have had a bright future and wouldnât have been criticized. I wouldnât have been so tired these few years.
Yin Zhan turned off the video on his phone and handed her a glass of water.
Tong Lu held the glass of water, but she could not swallow it down. She lost control of her emotions. She was sad and aggrieved. I feel like Iâm a joke. Iâve been played like a fool, and Iâve been sold, but Iâm still helping to count the money.
Yin Zhan sat at the side with his eyebrows slightly furrowed and his emotions hidden. He calmly looked at his younger sister, whose eyes were red. It was hard to comment without knowing the whole story. So far, he had not been able to figure out the logic of this matter. He couldnât understand why she had been chosen and forced to seek marriage. He had to find out the motive.
âTell me, what exactly happened back then?â
I failed my college entrance exams and my grandmother was seriously ill. That was why I fell for their trap. I noticed the marriage search and thought it was a desperate attempt to survive. After hesitating for a few days, I called the number on the advertisement. The other party was very straightforward. They arranged a time for us to consummate our marriage at Diyu hotel. After we consummated our marriage, I even signed the Marriage Registration Form. That night, the lawyer gave me a betrothal gift and a college admission Notice. At that time, I really thought that it was a blessing in disguise. Not only did I save my grandmother, but I also signed the Marriage Registration Form. Youâve also saved your studies.â
Tong Lu sobbed as she spoke. She went upstairs to retrieve her phone. As soon as she turned it on, she received a call. It was Shi Yang.
âLulu, is what the news said true?â Shi Yangâs voice was unusually excited over the phone.âLulu, you said that you called me a lot of times when you had no other choice, but I really didnât pick up any of your calls. Lulu, where did you call me at that time?â
âWhatâs the point of saying this now?â
âHow is it meaningless?â âIf those things didnât happen, if you had gotten into Yale, we might have been married and even had a child by now!â Shi Yang was filled with grief and indignation. Youâve been blaming me for not appearing by your side, havenât you?â
She must have been blaming him all this time. If those things hadnât happened, his beloved Lulu wouldnât have slipped away from his hands and been taken away by that despicable and shameless Mr. Leng, and suffered so much!
âI must find out why I didnât pick up your call at that time. Why wasnât I by your side when you needed me the most? I even misunderstood you for betraying our love.â
âLulu, leave Mr. Leng. Heâs not worth your sacrifice. Heâs not worthy! He and his brother are in cahoots!â
Tong Lu hung up the phone silently.âDid they really collude?â Why? Was Leng Yejin that kind of person? The answer in her heart was actually no, but she couldnât help but be afraid, because all the hair on her body stood up.
