Rebirth: Divine Doctor, Sweet Wife

Chapter 789: Marry Me (2)

Ji Mingyue blushed. “I… My older brother worries about nothing. He… he…”

Ji Mingyue stuttered for a long time but did not manage to say anything.

Gu Jinhang laughed and said, “It’s normal for your older brother to be concerned about you. The Bai family is truly unreasonable. You’ve suffered a lot over the past few years.

“I heard that Bai Chi can’t find a girlfriend now and he’s back to harassing you, right?”

Ji Mingyue looked rather embarrassed.

Gu Jinhang hurriedly said, “Don’t feel bad. There’s no need to feel embarrassed either. It’s the Bai family’s fault for being so shameless. It has nothing to do with you. Actually, the main reason behind why the Bai family is treating you like that is because you’re the Ji family’s daughter. The Ji family is useful to them.”

Ji Mingyue raised her head and looked at him. “I know. The Bai family wants the Ji family’s allegiance. My father and older brothers won’t agree. They don’t really want to have anything to do with the Bais.”

Gu Jinhang said, “That’s right. The Bai family is ruthless, and their tactics are despicable and vicious. They have framed many people in the past. Some of them have slowly regained their jobs, and their influence in the capital is growing. Of course they dislike the Bais, so the Bai family hasn’t been doing well lately.

“To the point that…” Gu Jinhang glanced at Ji Mingyue and continued speaking loftily. “The member of the Bai family with the highest status is Old Master Bai. The members of the second and third generations are fairly mediocre. The Bai family has also done too many immoral things in the past. They’ve been doing poorly for the last two years, so they want to drag the Ji family down with them.”

Ji Mingyue was shocked!

She did not know much about such things. She just knew that the Bai family and the Ji family were in different camps, but the Ji family was doing better. The Bai family wanted to control the Ji family for their own benefit. but the Ji family had refused.

So the Bai family set their sights on her, the Ji family’s only girl.

Gu Jinhang said, “The Bai family is determined to have you. They won’t give up even if you refuse. In the end, they will probably find some way to force you to consent. If you refuse to marry into the family, it means that the Ji family is no use to them. The Ji family’s existence threatens the Bai family. They will never permit the Ji family to continue to grow. If they can… they will exterminate you.”

Ji Mingyue was ashen. “Then… then what should we do?”

Gu Jinhang hurried to console her gently. “Don’t worry. I’m just analyzing the situation from the Bai family’s perspective. Under normal circumstances, it won’t be easy to completely eradicate a family like the Ji family. At the moment, the Bai family does not want to make such a strong enemy. The easiest solution is to force you to agree.”

When he saw Ji Mingyue’s pale face, Gu Jinhang did not give her an opportunity to speak. Instead, he continued to reason with her. “Your father and older brothers dote on you. Of course, they can’t bear to let you become the sacrificial lamb in a marriage alliance. But the moment you marry into the Bai family, the Ji family will be curbed in every way.”

Gu Jinhang was highly intelligent. He was extremely good at scheming and was a crafty person. He especially delighted in using his intellect to crush others. But it was rare for him to give someone such a detailed analysis and explanation.

He usually gave you a lofty look and let you figure it out!

Gu Jinhang was so outstanding and moved in powerful circles. Also, he was Gu Qingyao’s older cousin. Ji Mingyue was not at all wary of him. She was immediately terrified. She grabbed Gu Jinhang’s arm. “Then… what should I do? What should I do?”

Gu Jinhang’s lips arched. “I actually have a solution!”

Ji Mingyue’s eyes lit up. “What’s your solution?”

“Marry me!”
