Chapter 262 - Make A Choice

At the Lai residence, Lai Chang was extremely pleased with the comments Jiang Li was getting. There was nowhere to hide for him and everywhere, people were bashing him like crazy.

He leaned his head on the back of the couch and let out a breath. Hou Zhenzhen softly placed her hand on his forehead. "Chang."

"Hm. Did you see the news? Ah, I am so satisfied. This is what I always wanted to see. Jiang Li's downfall."

"Uncle and Aunt were talking about Lanying and Jiang Li. They are abroad but as soon as they heard the news, they booked the earliest flight to return."

Her Uncle and Aunt were her father's elder brother and sister-in-law. Jiang Lanying was Hou Lanying before she married into the Jiang family.

"I see. Good that they are coming back. They will also see how their daughter is suffering with that bastard! They will definitely tell her to leave him. How can she live with a man like that?"

She stiffened.

"Chang…" she hurriedly said, "I don't think that we should interfere with their matters…"

"What!? Impossible!"

"Chang, Uncle and Aunt are already coming back. They will be there to handle it."

He coldly said, "What do you mean!? It's Lanying's chance to finally get free of that bastard! We can only do this now that the iron is hot. If we let go of this chance, Lanying would be stuck there forever!"

Hou Zhenzhen gritted her teeth. She smiled, feeling furious. "Chang, I am only saying this because...we are going to be married soon."

He froze.

"So...it wouldn't look good if you got into this mess."

"Lanying is still my friend! I have to make her realize how wrong she was by choosing Jiang Li."

Her face flushed in anger. "And then what? Even if Lanying leaves Jiang Li, then what will happen?" She softly gasped as her eyes turned misty. "Will you leave me if Lanying divorces him?"

Lai Chang frowned. He wanted to disagree but he couldn't immediately answer.

"...What nonsense are you spouting? It has got nothing to do with our relationship. I just want Lanying to be free, that's all! You are her cousin too. As her sister, shouldn't you care about her? You cannot just leave everything to Uncle and Aunt."

"N-No. Of course I care for her…"

"So stop thinking about what is right or wrong. Just do what this chance has brought us. The Jiang family is not suited for Lanying and this is the chance for her to get out of there."

Lai Chang left, saying his piece of mind. Hou Zhenzhen stomped on her foot. "Lanying! Even after marriage, you won't let go of Chang!"

Late in the evening in the Jiang villa, Mr. and Mrs. Hou, Lanying's parents came to visit her.

"Lanying, dear! How are you?" Mrs. Hou worriedly hugged her. "We read what has happened until now...are you alright?" She anxiously asked.

Jiang Lanying smiled. "I am fine, Mom."

Mr. Hou asked with a grim expression. "And Li? How is he?"

She bit her lip. "He is…"

Mrs. Hou said, "I understand. It must be hard for him. I...I never imagined that Li was having…"

Mr. Hou smiled and patted on his daughter's head. "Lanying, don't worry, okay? Don't stress about the Weibo comments. I am sure the Jiang family's legal team will delete them and make a statement soon. You just be there for Li in this hard time."

"En. He needs you now the most," Mrs. Hou smiled.

Jiang Lanying nervously fidgeted. "Mom, Dad about the statement...I-I have come to a decision."

They questioningly looked at her.

"I will... I will come forward and say that Li's news is a lie. I-It is me who has…"

"What!?" They stared at her, aghast. "Are you saying that you will take the blame?"

She said nothing.

Mr. Hou shook her hard. "Don't be so foolish, Lanying! You know what kind of comments Li is getting, right? Do you want all that to be directed towards you?"

Mrs. Hou said, "How can you even think about this? D-Did Li ask you to-"

"No! Li is against this as well. Please don't misunderstand him."

"So why are you adamant?" Mr. Hou shook his head. "No way! I won't allow you to do this at any cost! We cannot see the world humiliating you! Of course, we are heartbroken for Li. But this is not the way to help him."

A tear trickled down her cheek. "Why don't you understand? I cannot watch this anymore! I don't want Li to suffer. All this time, he was doing everything alone and now this…" she trembled. "Mom, Dad. Please…I want to do this."

As her parents, they did everything they could to change her decision and mind. But Jiang Lanying didn't budge. Mr. Hou was so frustrated that he refused to talk to her any further and left with a livid face.

She softly collapsed on the bed as she sobbed.

"So even Mom and Dad couldn't change your decision huh…"

Jiang Li grabbed her arm and icily stared at her. "Seems like you are eager to prove how much of an embarrassment I have become now. I thought that things finally changed between us last night but…"

"Li…"

"Enough!" His dark eyes were extremely frosty as he said, "Lanying. I am warning you. Dad and I will handle this matter. Cousin Wei is there too. Don't underestimate his power. So you better stay out of this. If you want to help me, then do anything."

"Li, Old Madam is right. Deleting the posts will only aggravate the matter. So-"

He slightly squeezed her arm, making her wince. "Lanying."

She stiffened.

"I am already in enough pain to live with this fact that I could never get cured and you might never get a child. Don't burden me anymore by taking the blame on yourself. If the world hates you for something I am the cause of, I would never be able to forgive myself."

"Li…"

"That's why, you make a choice. Either stay out of all this and live with me or if you insist on giving any stupid statement, I won't hesitate to divorce you!"
