Li Rouxi held back her tears and couldn't deny the existence of this child. "Darren, I have my reason."
"Enough, I'm not interested, now listen to me." Darren withdrew his gaze indifferently and the kindness that he had given her, leaving nothing but cruelty and chill.
"I, Jin Darren and Li Rouxi break off our engagement. We will have no business to do with each other from now on."
Li Rouxi's heart was torn in an instant. She stared at Darren, who was close at hand but made her feel as if they were already separated by an unmeasurable distance.
"I'm going to take this opportunity to thank one person. She was the one who accompanied me while I was ill. She took care of me and encouraged me and treated me wholeheartedly."
When he said these words, Jin Darren's handsome face was obviously stained with tenderness. He was a totally different person from when he glanced at Li Rouxi with indifference.
After Darren finished speaking, he opened the door of the car beside him, and stretched out his hand like a gentleman.
A slender hand beautiful like jade was placed on his palm and was gently pulled out of the car.
Li Lingjiao, dressed in a light pink princess dress, was bright and beautiful, with jade-like skin and eyes that were clever as if they could talk. She smiled slightly, bright like flowers that bloomed in spring.
She stood beside Darren, who was tall and handsome. She was petite and lovely, and two were a perfect match.
"Li Lingjiao, thank you for staying true to me. Thank you for giving me a new life." Jin Darren knelt on one knee in front of everyone. "Lingjiao, marry me and be with me forever, okay?"
Jin Darren held the diamond ring in his hand. Under the sun, the diamond reflected colourful rays of light. The pure 6.6 grams of diamond made people envy.
"Say yes, say yes...."
"Marry him, marry him..."
Li Lingjiao was touched, her eyes filled with crystal tears. She looked at Darren with affectionate eyes, but she did not nod.
"Lingjiao, what's the matter? Are you unwilling?" Jin Darren saw the hesitation and conflict in her eyes.
"Brother Darren, ...Of course I would love to. But my sister loves you so much, I can't do that...." Li Lingjiao frowned and shook her head with worry. "Although she made a mistake, would you please give her a chance? Forgive her, you will be very happy."
"Lingjiao, you are innocent and kind." Darren stood up. He held her fragrant shoulders with both hands, gentle and distressed. "It's not that I didn't give her a chance. It's your sister who was cruel and left me! She disappeared when I needed her the most, and there was even... an illegitimate child! And the person who had been by my side to take care of me and accompany me is you. If it weren't for you, I don't think I would recover from illness!"
"Brother Darren, I did everything willingly. But things weren't easy for my sister." Li Lingjiao still interceded for Li Rouxi, generous and kind.
Li Rouxi looked at Li Lingjiao, who was innocent and harmless. She felt hurt and wanted to sneer inside.
"Lingjiao, don't feel burdened, it's your sister who let me down first! I, Jin Darren, can't accept such a cruel woman again!" Jin Darren comforted Li Lingjiao. "I just want to be with you now, Lingjiao I Like you, do you like me?"
Li Lingjiao bit her lip and tears fell down her cheeks. She appeared charming and delicate.
"Tell me, do you like me?"
"Um... I like you, I like you a lot. But-" She turned to look at Li Rouxi who was a few meters away. "Sister, brother Darren likes me, and I like him too. Please let us be together."
"Li Lingjiao, Jin Darren, I wish you happiness and I wish you die soon."
"Sister, brother Darren finally recovered. Come at me with what you have, I'm not afraid of anything. I just beg that you do not say that to brother Darren....."
"Lingjiao, don't beg her, she is not worthy!"
SLAP
Li Rouxi was slapped loudly and so hard that there were even red finger marks on her face.
"You have done such a shameful thing, and you cursed your sister so viciously! Why did our Li family give birth to someone so vile! You have made Li family lose all of its face!" Li Jianmin also rushed over after hearing the sound, and when he heard those horrible words, he couldn't help but become angry.
"Li Rouxi, you didn't cherish Darren, so don't blame Lingjiao for getting Darren's love. She's your sister... yet you can say those things to her? Are you trying to piss us off?" Mother Li Jingtong blamed her frustrated daughter.
"Dad, mom, why are you here too..."
Li Lingjiao blushed and spoke in a coquettishness tone.
"If we are not here, who's going to help you?" Li Jianmin looked at Li Rouxi angrily, so much that he wished he could choke her.
"Don't worry. No matter what she says, dad won't believe her. Both dad and mom support you being together with Jin Darren. As for this bastard, she has nothing to do with our Li family from now on!"
"Dad, sister, she needs us the most now. She just lost her mind and made a mistake. We should help her." Li Lingjiao "kindly" persuaded her parents.
"Help her? She abandoned herself and left her morals behind. No one can help her!" Li Jianmin snorted, then patted Lingjiao on the shoulder and spoke lovingly.
"Fortunately, Lingjiao didn't disappoint dad and mom knowing that you'll be together with Jin Darren in the future, we feel at ease as your parents."
"Yes, it is impossible for our Jin family to accept such a shameless woman! She is not even worthy of being Darren's servant!" At the same time, the father of the Jin family, Jin Shenhai, arrived and also chose Li Lingjiao.
"Li Lingjiao, you are our Jin family's daughter-in-law. If you hadn't worked so hard for Darren, he wouldn't be standing in front of us so healthily now."
But Jin Carmen, the mother of the Jin family, just frowned heavily, and looked at Li Rouxi's cold and beautiful face and the child in her arms in disbelief, and finally looked away.
Li Rouxi felt that she had fallen into a vortex of despair, and her body and mind were torn apart.
"Lingjiao, I really need you." Jin Darren pulled Li Lingjiao close and sealed his words with a kiss.
Li Lingjiao widened her beautiful eyes in shock, but gradually relaxed under Darren's kiss, lingering with him.
Li Rouxi tried her best to endure the soreness in her eyes and the tears that began to emerge.
She would not cry in front of the enemy! She bit her lip, and the tip of her tongue was filled with the smell of blood and sweetness the taste of being betrayed by the most loved one.
The current situation was what Lingjiao had schemed a long time ago. Even if she had her reasons, she couldn't explain herself and no one would believe her.
Her own biological parents determined that she was no longer worthy of the Jin family because she had a child before marriage.
They abandoned her and decided to help their pure and noble younger daughter maintain her engagement and a relationship with the Jin family.
They never wanted the truth. They only wanted a pawn.
Even though she was defeated at the moment, her eyes were still full of firmness, without any sign of weakness.
Li Rouxi sneered in her heart, watching them being happily together yet she suffered in embarrassment. She swore that she would one day get them back for today's humiliation.
