Chapter 69 At that time, the Lu family would be destroyed under the male leads undefeatable halo! (2)

Lu Beichuan silently looked at her. After thinking it over, he answered, I found out on the day that you slapped me.

So you woke up a while ago? When exactly?

When you confessed to me that you took your older sisters place.

She hadnt guessed incorrectly.

Ye Zhen remained silent for a long time before she quietly said, Since our discussion has already reached this point, I wont keep hiding stuff from you. Ye Zhen sighed and quietly said, Yes, Im Ye Zhen. I took my older sisters place in marrying you so that your family would help my familys business.

I overheard Lin Zhan and my older sisters conversation when they were in the bathroom yesterday. Thats when I found out that my older sister has been taking credit for all the things Ive done in the past for Lin Zhan. Ye Zhens mood seemed low, and her voice sounded as if she was choked up and about to cry.

All those love letters I wrote to Lin Zhan had become letters that my older sister wrote to him. I worked at a restaurant to spend time with him, but he thought shes the one that was with him during those times. I took care of Lin Zhans mom at the hospital, but in the end, my older sister took the credit for all my hard work. Because of Lin Zhans misunderstanding, hes always been by her side. But, I feel that the person he truly loves is the me that was always by his side back when we were younger!

Lu Beichuan nodded. And so?

Ive liked Lin Zhan since high school, but I thought he liked my older sister, so Ive never dared to confess my true feelings to him using my own name. But, Ive thought things through since then. If I had only bravely told him my feelings back then, perhaps, I would be the person by Lin Zhans side right now.

Ye Zhen looked at Lu Beichuan with unshed tears in her eyes, CEO Lu, I told you before that Im in love with Lin Zhan and Im willing to give up everything for him. As for me and you, theres no emotional foundation between us. Theres no future for us. Besides, CEO Lu, your wifes name is Ye Qing not Ye Zhen. If you have me take my older sisters place and stay in the Lu family, what will happen to my older sister?

Lu Beichuan didnt seemed swayed at all by Ye Zhens tearful visage and helpless tone. Good job on the tearful performance, but youve already said this before. Theres no need for you to put on this act again.

When she thought about it carefully, she remembered what Lu Beichuan was referring to.

Ye Zhen calmly wiped away the fake tears and continued with her attempt at persuading him. My parents raised me into adulthood, so I couldnt stand to the side and do nothing. I willingly married you to help my parents. I have self-awareness. I know that the Lu family only wanted the marriage between our families in hopes that a marriage would bring you good luck, and I also know that my family isnt good enough to be in-laws with your family under normal circumstances. If you hadnt gotten into a car accident, I would have never gotten the opportunity to marry you. Once you woke up, I planned on leaving so that you can find a woman that you truly love to be your wife. Im not going to try to use devious tricks to force you to stay married to me.

Are you saying that after trying out a wedding dress I suggested for you and confirming the wedding date, you want to leave and pretend as if nothing has happened?

Ye Zhen really wanted to say yes, thats exactly it.

But, she didnt dare to say that in front of Lu Beichuan. It would be the same as digging her own grave.

CEO Lu, do you think a loveless marriage will last? Ye Zhens gaze was heavy as she looked at him. Excuse me for speaking disrespectfully, but your mothers life has been difficult in the past years because shes been trapped in a loveless marriage where her husband doesnt love her. Since there arent any feelings between us, why bother with forcing us together?
