This girl is just so strong-willed.
Fearful of troubling others, afraid of causing worry, she always looks for solutions on her own.
How can this be okay!
Just like the issue with the child before, itâs the same now.
Alas, sheâs really causing too much concern.
This girl, sheâs just too considerate of the people around her, too independent!
This has its advantages, but also its disadvantages.
Such self-sacrifice will only hurt herself!
What a fool!
Truly a silly girl!
âI, I understand, donât worry!â1 said Bai Susu.
After ending the call, Ye Fan sighed deeply.
Meanwhile, at the hospitalâ¦
Bai Susu had just hung up the phone.
The door to the ward was pushed open.
In walked a middle-aged couple dressed in elegant and radiant clothes.
âDad, Mom, why have you come?1â Bai Susuâs face showed surprise, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
She had just seen her parents twice when she came back a few days ago. With the companyâs troubles keeping the Bai Family busy, why would her parents come to visit her grandfather in the hospital today?
It seemed that the companyâs issues must have been resolved.
âMy girl, youâve been here every day looking after your grandpa. How can your body take it?â Bai Susuâs mother stepped forward, looking at her beloved daughter with concern. Though older, her youthful beauty was still apparent.
âMom, itâs okay, I just want to keep Grandpa company. He must be very lonely all by himself here,â Bai Susu said, glancing at Old Master Bai on the hospital bed.
âOh, look, Dad, how filial our Susu is. Itâs been hard on her,â Bai Susuâs father joined at the bedside and slowly said. From an angle Bai Susu couldnât see, he gently tugged at the sleeve of his wifeâs clothes.
âSusu, youâve been here, and your father and I have been busy with the groupâs affairs. We havenât taken good care of you. Are you still angry about the marriage proposition we spoke of before?â Baiâs mother held Bai Susuâs hand and said with a worried look.
âYou donât know how your mother has been these past few days, unable to eat or sleep, sheâs become quite haggard!â Baiâs father immediately echoed.
âWhy are you saying such things in front of the child? As her mother, itâs only natural for me to worry about my daughter,â Baiâs mother glared unhappily at Baiâs father at that moment.
âMom, Dad, Iâve made you worry. I know Grandpa is in a coma and the company is in chaos, but you both know what kind of person the Jia Familyâs eldest son is. It would be better for me to die than marry him. Iâve said I wonât do it; we just need to think of some other way,â Bai Susu insisted.
Baiâs father and mother looked at their daughterâs determination and couldnât help but sigh, a decisive glint flashing quickly in their eyes.
âAlright, you are our only daughter. If you say you wonât marry, then you wonât marry. Well think of another way. Come home for dinner tonight. How about your mother cooks for you personally?â Baiâs mother said with a smile.
âMom, are you really not going to force me anymore?â Bai Susu was somewhat taken aback.
According to her expectations, her parents would surely continue to pressure her.
Why were they so agreeable today?
Why was that?
Could it be, Mom and Dad really do care about me?
Or is it that, seeing how determined I was, they simply gave up on that idea.
Regardless, as long as I donât have to marry that prodigal son, itâs good.
âSilly girl, you are our precious daughter, how could we force you into something you donât want?â Baiâs mother said.
âThatâs right, Dad may be strict with you, but I still love you, Susu. Youâre our only child, we naturally want the best for you, truly care about you, if youâre unwilling then let it be!â Baiâs father said smilingly.
âReally, thatâs great, thank you, Mom and Dad!â Bai Susu said happily, hugging her mother.
It was really great!
Mom and Dad finally stopped pressuring me.
My parents still love me very much.
In their eyes, I am still very important.
At this moment, Bai Susu was truly overjoyed!
My persistence really was worthwhile.
âSilly child, come home for dinner tonight, Mom will cook for you personally, you havenât had Momâs cooking in a long time, you must miss it!â Baiâs mother said with a smile, patting Bai Sususâs head.
âItâs been a long time since I had it, Iâve really missed it for a long time, itâs wonderful that I can eat Momâs cooking again, Iâll be home on time.â Bai Susu lifted her head, her smile was very bright.
âSilly child, youâve had a hard time these days.â Baiâs mother said.
âItâs not hard, taking care of Grandpa and all, itâs what I should do, Mom and Dad, youâve been running around for the company and Grandpaâs affairs for so long, thatâs whatâs truly exhausting.â Bai Susu said.
What have I really done so far.
Itâs just taking care of Grandpa; I havenât been able to help much with the company.
My parents have been busy running around these days; thatâs whatâs really tiring.
âSilly child, you, alright, weâre heading back now, remember to come home for dinner tonight, Mom will make you something delicious.â Baiâs mother reminded her again.
âDonât worry, Iâll definitely come home to eat.â Bai Susu smiled and said.
âMhm, weâre leaving then, take good care of yourself and donât overexert yourself.â Baiâs father and mother said before finally turning to leave.
The moment they turned, a trace of helplessness flashed in Baiâs motherâs eyes.
Bai Susu saw her parents out to the door, then turned back around.
Picking up the phone, she immediately shared the news with Ye Fan.
She was very happy now that her parents had finally stopped forcing her to marry.
Bai Susu wanted to share the good news with Ye Fan, to put his mind at ease, so he wouldnât worry so much.
âYou said what? Your parents agreed not to make you marry that Jia familyâs young master?â On the phone, Ye Fan thought he had misheard and couldnât help but ask again.
Before, Bai Susuâs parentsâ stance was very firm, wasnât it?
How did they change their minds so suddenly!
Why is that?
