Lu Xining's head buzzed, and he was undoubtedly confused, not to mention Jin Shaoheng's expression.
Gu Yuzhi came prepared. He knelt down on one knee, took out a jewelry box and opened it. Inside was a diamond ring.
"Xining, will you marry me?" Gu Yuzhi asked.
"Brother Yu..." Lu Xining's eyes seemed to be asking him if he was crazy?
Seeing that she didn't respond, Gu Yuzhi stood up from the ground and gave her the rose in his hand.
"Don't let me down." He whispered in Lu Xining's ear.
Lu Xining looked at him unexpectedly and immediately understood that he was deliberately acting for Jin Shaoheng.
Gu Yuzhi took advantage of her daze, took her hand and put the ring he had carefully prepared on her.
But before the ring could be pushed in, another hand held Lu Xining's hand to stop it.
"Jin Shaoheng, what are you doing?" Gu Yuzhi asked.
"She is my wife, and she is carrying my child. What do you want me to do?" Jin Shaoheng said confidently.
Fortunately, we are abroad and not many people understand Chinese. But these two handsome and tall men competing for a pregnant woman are enough to watch.
"Jin Shaoheng, you are divorced and your marriage is free." Gu Yuzhi argued with Jin Shaoheng.
But Jin Shaoheng has never been a reasonable person, and he didn't talk nonsense to Gu Yuzhi. He took Lu Xining's hand and said, "Let's go."
Lu Xining naturally did not move, and gradually brushed off Jin Shaoheng's hand that was holding him.
"Lu Xining!" Jin Shaoheng shouted nervously.
Because he saw Lu Xining taking Gu Yuzhi's ring, but Lu Xining ignored him and put it directly on her own hand.
"Do you really agree to his proposal?" Jin Shaoheng couldn't accept it.
"Didn't you already see it?" Lu Xining replied, then looked at Gu Yuzhi and said, "I like it very much."
She looked at Gu Yuzhi's eyes, which were full of soft light, but the light turned into arrows, which pierced into Jin Shaoheng's heart one by one.
"I don't allow it." Jin Shaoheng made a move to take off the eye-catching ring.
Lu Xining clenched his hand tightly, refusing to take it off even though his fingers were red.
"I'll buy it for you, no matter how expensive it is." Jin Shaoheng said.
But what Lu Xining cared about was never the issue of high status.
Lu Xining smiled: "As you said, you will not go against my wishes."
"That's only if you agree to start over with me." Jin Shaoheng became anxious.
"Jin Shaoheng, it turns out that your so-called kindness to me is conditional." Lu Xining looked at him sarcastically.
"No!" Jin Shaoheng denied.
But looking at the shining diamond ring on her fingertips, she still wanted to destroy it.
How could Lu Xining wear a ring given by another man? And it was also an engagement ring.
Lu Xining didn't care about his feelings. At this time, the ring on her finger was not just a ring, but also represented her attitude.
In the end, Jin Shaoheng couldn't bear to hurt her and chose to give up temporarily.
Love is like this. Who cares more between the two parties will always compromise, and whoever will give in first will do so.
Lu Xining withdrew his hand again and said to Gu Yuzhi: "Brother Yuzhi, let's go."
"Xining." Jin Shaoheng stopped her.
When Gu Yuzhi saw this, he kicked him on the shoulder.
The war between two men seems to be about to break out, because Jin Shaoheng has never suffered such injustice.
But he glanced at Lu Xining who was standing next to Gu Yuzhi. He was afraid of accidentally hurting her, so he clenched the fist hanging by his side and did not make a move in the end.
Gu Yuzhi took the opportunity to put Lu Xining into his car, started the engine, and took her home.
After entering the door, I found that Lu Yuzheng had not come back yet.
Gu Yuzhi closed the door and made sure that Jin Shaoheng had not followed. Turning around, he saw Lu Xining sitting on the sofa in despair.
"What's wrong?" Gu Yuzhi asked.
Lu Xining shook his head, then thought of something, quickly took off the ring on his finger, and said to him: "Thank you."
"Keep it. If he continues to pester you, it will only look real if you keep wearing it." Gu Yuzhi said.
"No, it's too expensive." It looked like the ring had been carefully selected. Maybe he had prepared it for her future girlfriend.
"It's not worth much in my eyes." Gu Yuzhi said indifferently.
Lu Xining didn't know what to do for a moment, so he put it on the table and asked, "How did you come up with this idea?"
It was so unexpected that she was completely stunned at the time.
Gu Yuzhi smiled and asked, "Isn't it scaring you?"
Lu Xining shook his head, but still said: "Brother Yu, I know you are doing it for me, but don't do this kind of thing in the future."
"You still love him, right? Can't bear to see him suffer?" Gu Yuzhi asked.
"Of course not." Lu Xining denied.
In her opinion, love and marriage are sacred. She understands Gu Yuzhi's desire to help her, but it always feels weird to have such a link between the two.
Of course, he owes more because he put his reputation on the line in order to help himself.
"Xining, if you want to completely get rid of his entanglement, you have to make him give up on you completely." This is the crux of Gu Yu's way.
"I'm afraid that if I annoy Jin Shaoheng, he will do something extreme." Lu Xining expressed his concerns.
She knew Jin Shaoheng very well and knew his methods.
"Then let's get married?" Gu Yuzhi said bluntly without giving any surprise.
"Brother Yu!" What happened to him today?
But Gu Yuzhi smiled and said indifferently: "You become my wife in name only, and we have a legal relationship, so he has no position to harass you."
Lu Xining met his innocent eyes, but she always felt as if there was something hidden: "You don't really like me, do you?"
Although she herself thought it was impossible, after all, not to mention how ugly she was now with her big belly, Gu Yuzhi had seen all her own misfortunes.
How could he like her like this?
Gu Yuzhi wanted to say that he liked her, but when he said it, he changed his words: "It's all in name only, what are you thinking about?"
He was afraid that he would put pressure on her, and he was even more afraid that while she was avoiding Jin Shaoheng, she would also be avoiding him, so this was not the best time to confess.
Hearing this, Lu Xining breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously and said, "It's okay if it's not."
In her eyes, Gu Yuzhi was too good, and she was not worthy of him at all.
"So, do you want to have a fake marriage with me?" Gu Yuzhi asked.
His selfishness can no longer be hidden, but he will not force her. He just wants to protect her silently, be by her side, and protect her.
Lu Xining shook his head and refused: "Brother Yu, I know you are doing it for my own good, but your sacrifice is too great."
"Then do you have a better way?" Gu Yuzhi asked.
Lu Xining was silent for a moment and said, "There will always be a way."
This was a matter between her and Jin Shaoheng, and she had no intention of involving Gu Yuzhi. However, she didn't have the ability to resist, and she didn't know whether it was right or wrong to reach this point.
Gu Yuzhi couldn't bear to see her sad face, so he comforted her and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything."
But what can he do? Should he continue to pretend to be a couple with her? Lu Xining didn't want to continue to use him like this.
Lu Xining was about to speak, but was interrupted by him rubbing his hair: "Don't worry, I won't force you to marry me."
After Lu Yuzheng came back, Gu Yuzhi left with peace of mind.
His house was in the suburbs, and when he passed a remote path, he saw Jin Shaoheng's car in the distance.
