Chapter 228 Do You Want to Confess Your Engagement?
Lin Bingxue looked at him, not knowing where to start.
He should have an idea in his mind, since she just asked him directly.
However, he avoided answering.
Men’s avoidance is actually the answer.
Xiang Chenyi did not give a direct answer. He would marry her no matter what, which meant that he was hesitating.
In the past, Lin Bingxue would have already shown displeasure.
But now...what qualifications does she have?
She needs to cling closely to Xiang Chenyi. In this relationship, she is in the lower position.
Xiang Chenyi is the superior one!
Seeing Lin Bingxue's evasive eyes and the whole person in a state of embarrassment, Xiang Shenyi turned his head to look at Lin's father and mother.
"Uncle and aunt," he asked, "I think I have the right to know."
Father Lin looked at him: "Bingxue said it, and you heard it."
Xiang Chenyi's head buzzed and exploded.
This undoubtedly proves that Lin Bingxue is indeed not the daughter of the Lin family!
"Chen Yi, I haven't had time to tell you about this because our Lin family hasn't dealt with it yet, and we haven't completed the negotiation," said Lin's father, "but you suddenly found me here...there's nothing to hide, so let's tell you all at once."
"Bingxue is not my biological daughter. Her biological mother swapped her with my daughter after giving birth to her, making her the daughter of the Lin family. The real daughter of the Lin family was taken away by her biological mother."
"Now, the truth is out. My daughter is back and her origins are clear."
Xiang Chenyi was stunned.
How could this be?
The fiancée he had been trying to please turned out to be just an ordinary person? A fake daughter?
"Uncle..." After a while, Xiang Chenyi finally spoke with difficulty, his voice was dry, "Then, where is your biological daughter, the real daughter of the Lin family? Who is she?"
Father Lin did not answer, but looked up at Lin Xige.
Xiang Chen Yi followed his gaze.
After seeing Lin Xige, Xiang Chenyi was even more shocked.
This amount of information is too much, and the truth is too explosive... Xiang Chenyi simply cannot digest and accept it in a short period of time!
Mu Chaoran married the daughter of the Lin family!
What about Xiang Chenyi and Lin Bingxue's engagement? Is it bad luck for him?
"Mrs. Mu, she is... your daughter..." Xiang Chenyi said, "and she is already married."
Father Lin nodded: "Yes, Shen Yi. It's too complicated. I don't know how to tell you. The marriage contract was made by the Lin family and the Xiang family, and it should be fulfilled as agreed. But..."
Father Lin couldn't continue speaking, let alone say anything.
He wanted to ask Xiang Chenyi whether he was willing to continue to fulfill his engagement with Lin Bingxue.
If Xiang Chenyi is willing, that would be the best.
All are happy.
Lin Bingxue now had a home and a place to go, and his years of careful upbringing were worth it.
But if Xiang Chenyi doesn't want to...
Lin Bingxue will definitely collapse.
But then again, it is understandable that Xiang Chenyi is unwilling to marry Lin Bingxue. After all, the person he wants to marry is the daughter of the Lin family.
Now that Lin Bingxue has lost this identity, naturally, the engagement will become invalid.
After a few seconds of silence, Father Lin said, "Chen Yi, think about it carefully. No matter what decision you make, I understand and respect you."
The decision-making power is given to Xiang Chenyi.
Lin Bingxue looked up at the man in front of her.
At this moment, he is her only salvation.
They had been in love for many years, loving and harmonious, and he was impeccable in his treatment of her, but that was only superficial.
Now, it's time for the real test.
If Xiang Chenyi loves her enough, truly loves her, then no matter what her identity is, he will marry her and be with her.
If the one he loved was the daughter of the Lin family, and not her, Lin Bingxue...
Then, he would abandon her without hesitation.
"Ayi," Lin Bingxue held on to the last glimmer of hope, "No matter who I am, I am still me. You love me, this person, all of me, not the added value of me...right?"
She waited for his answer with great anticipation.
Xiang Chenyi looked into her eyes and remained silent.
The air seemed to freeze.
"Ayi, I have nothing left. You are all I have now," Lin Bingxue said carefully. "If you don't want me either, then there is no meaning for me to exist in this world."
She waited for his answer.
Whether facing Li Fang, the Lin family, or Mu Chaoran, Lin Bingxue racked her brains to think of countermeasures and seize a glimmer of hope.
But only in front of Xiang Chenyi...
She didn't want to use any tricks or means.
She wondered if he really loved her.
Although Xiang Chenyi did not speak, Lin Bingxue already had the answer in her heart.
Love that is chosen with enough determination does not require thinking.
Obviously, Xiang Chenyi was considering and weighing the pros and cons.
Lin Bingxue's heart sank inch by inch, and the light in her eyes dimmed little by little until it went out.
"It's too sudden, Bingxue," Xiang Chenyi pondered for a long time before speaking carefully, "I can't give you an answer for now. I need some time to think about it calmly."
Lin Bingxue smiled bitterly.
After weighing the pros and cons, Xiang Chenyi still felt that she was not worthy of him.
Lin Bingxue, who had lost her status as the daughter of the Lin family, turned out to be nothing and had nothing.
The family affection is gone.
Love also left her.
Everything is based on interests and status.
Lin Bingxue has been in the Lin family for so many years, but in the end, she got nothing.
"Ayi, tell me the truth, you want to break up, right?" Lin Bingxue asked, "It's okay, just tell me, I can bear it, and I understand you."
Although she knew the answer clearly, Lin Bingxue still demanded a precise answer.
Women, will never give up until the very last moment.
The other party must say the most cruel and heartless words!
Xiang Chenyi changed the subject: "Bingxue, you should go to the hospital first and have a physical check-up."
As he spoke, he stood up and said, "I'll arrange a car and a driver to take you there."
He didn't even go with her and just handed her over to the driver.
In the past, whenever Lin Bingxue coughed or sneezed, Xiang Chenyi would run from the Xiang family company to the Lin family to bring her medicine, and even prepare the medicine and hand it to her.
What now?
The treatment is very different.
To be honest, Xiang Chenyi still had some conscience. He didn't just ignore her, but also took into account their feelings and worried that she would get hurt.
But this little bit of affection will soon disappear.
"Hospital?" Mu Chaoran said calmly, "Wrong, Xiang Chenyi, she should go to prison."
Xiang Chenyi was surprised again: "Prison?"
Even if Lin Bingxue replaced Lin Xige's identity, she wouldn't go to jail.
Besides...
That was a crime committed by Lin Bingxue's biological mother, when Lin Bingxue was just a baby in swaddling clothes.
Why do we have to kill them all?
Besides, what is the crime for which he was imprisoned?
