âBangâ
Bai Susuâs head gently drooped onto the table.
Not knowing why her head felt so heavy, she ultimately lay it on the table and drifted into unconsciousness.
Bai Ao and Sun Jiao watched Bai Susu do this, raising their heads to look at each other, each seeing a determined look in the otherâs eyes.
âCan we really do this?â Sun Jiao asked hesitantly.
Despite everything she had been intending to do, this was still her biological child.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
She still felt a bitâ¦
Very disturbed!
âNonsense, of course we can. Only this way can we save our Bai Group, do you want to live in hardship?â
âThink about it, do you want to be the wife of a rich household, or a despised pauper, looked down upon by everyone?â
âI certainly donât want to live the life of a pauper, and besides, once Bai Susu truly becomes Mr. Jiaâs woman, she will also be blessed, able to enjoy prosperity, and we can bask in her reflected glory.â
-What are you hesitating for? Girls have to marry eventually, so if she must marry she should marry someone who can benefit her family. Jia Ruguang has been longing for Susu for a long time now, and this time, his wish will be
fulfilled.â
âIf she can successfully marry into that family, all the better. We are being forced, weâve already agreed to Mr. Jiaâs proposal, how can we go back on it. I we do, weâll have no small amount of trouble!â Bai Ao said.
This woman, really, whatever she does, she canât do right!
Didnât they start by agreeing to it?
How did she suddenly become soft-hearted?
Ah, truly, women cause delays in matters.
âI know, but do you really think Mr. Jia will marry Susu, or that once he gets SUSU, he will help us?â Sun Jiao spoke again, her well-maintained face showing
a trace of worry.
âPfft, could he possibly go back on his word? If he does, weâll sue him!â Bai Ao
said.
Changing his mind? That certainly couldnât be allowed.
âBut when Susu wakes up, how will we face her? Sheâs our only child, ah, itâs really tough on the child!â Sun Jiao spoke again, a sorrowful expression on her face as she looked at Bai Susu.
Isnât it just so!
Itâs really tough on this child.
âWhatâs the big deal? You know, ever since she was little, weâve been working hard to nurture her so she could be this outstanding. Now is the time for her to be of use, or else all that nurturing would have been for nothing. Weâve raised her for almost twenty years; she ought to give something back to her parents. Sheâs not a son; how can she be expected to provide for us in our old age?â âFurthermore, once the rice is cooked, thatâll settle everything. It will be a done deal and then there will be no way to change it, Susu will only care for Mr. Jia. By then, refusal wonât be an option, and gradually, Susu will surely come to like Mr. Jia. Mr. Jia will also help us to overcome the companyâs difficulties. Isn t this a win-win situation?â
âBesides, feelings can be cultivated over time!â
âBut thisâ¦â Sun Jiao wanted to say more but was interrupted by Bai Ao. ââ Enough, stop talking, take Susu upstairs to her room, I will call Mr. Jia and have him come over!â Bai Ao instructed.
Women are such a bother!
Even in doing one thing, they are so indecisive, itâs infuriating to watch.
He was doing this for the family, for the entire Bai Corporate Group.
For everyoneâs sake, who wanted to live a beggarâs life?
Why canât anyone understand him?
To sacrifice his precious daughter, didnât it hurt his own heart?
But there was no choice.
He had to do this to save the Bai Corporate Group; only then could everyone survive.
Thinking this, Bai Ao felt a faint disappointment in his heart.
Ah, indeed, no one could understand him.
And besides, his father was still lying in the hospital, where the money was flowing like water, and the company was almost unable to hold on.
Being the eldest, he naturally had to be at the forefront.
There was no choice; by sacrificing one person, Bai Susu, he could save the whole family.
Of course, Bai Ao chose the latter.
Taking the phone, Bai Ao went to call Mr. Jia to have him come over.
Sun Jiao sighed as she watched Bai Aoâs retreating back.
Then looking at Bai Susu lying on the table, she shook her head helplessly, thinking about her husbandâs words, which indeed made sense, and with gritted teeth, she helped Bai Susu upstairs.
Bai Susu was rather slim, so Sun Jiao didnât struggle to help her, moving slowly up the stairs.
Finally, she helped Bai Susu into a room.
Sun Jiao covered Bai Susu with the blanket, then turned and left the room resolutely.
Though she held resentment towards Bai Susu deep down, she was still her child after all.
Both the palm and the back of the hand were flesh; it was just a matter of more or less flesh.
After Sun Jiao went downstairs, she saw Bai Ao sitting on the sofa, his face quite joyful.
It seemed they had come to an agreement!
Thinking that Mr. Jia would be arriving soon, Sun Jiao felt somewhat uneasy. Of course, seeing Bai Aoâs exhilarated look made her even more upset. This was about selling their daughter, yet why did Bai Ao look so cheerful? This reminded her of those words she had heard before: preference for sons over daughters, daughters being a lost cause, destined to marry off, and so on. -Bai Ao, do you have no humanity at all? Are you actually happy?â Sun Jiao snapped.
âWhatâs wrong? Canât I be happy for a moment? The company is saved, isnât that what we all wanted?â Bai Ao replied, frowning.
This woman, what on earth was she raging about?
