Chapter 210 - A Marriage Proposal (2/2)
The Lu family went silent at the scenes that unfolded before them. They were familiar with Lu Ge's dislike for Jun Li Na but they never thought that he would forget everything and treat her this badly. Jun family won't let this go at any cost and they knew it all since Jun Li Na was the only precious daughter they had.
"At this point, I don't see any way to mediate this situation at all," grandfather Xu sighed since he was greatly affected by the video himself.
But by his side, Xu Cheng was pondering the words of Xu Mey. Since she had asked him to do it, he'd do anything for his daughter. "There is still a way out of this situation. That way all of our reputations can be saved."
Everyone gazed at Xu Cheng with furrowed brows. "Since the Jun family already doesn't want to keep this relationship. It's better that lu Ge and Jun Li Na get a divorce."
"But-" Before Lu family people could argue, Xu Cheng interrupted them.
"But this divorce will only add fuel to fire for both Xu and Lu family."
"That's what I'm trying to say. More so, people will call Xu Liqing a homewrecker. Mr. Xu should think about it again." Lu Ge's father spoke up, politely reminding him in this society a girl's reputation was the only one that could be tarnished, a man could walk away unscathed even after plenty of illicit relationships.
"Humph!" Jun Li Na's mother huffed in between her sobs and said, "So, what do you guys want? Huh? Do you want people to point their fingers at my daughter all her life telling her how her husband made her wear a green hat right before the whole world, on live tv?"
"That's not what I mea-" Lu Ge's father words were cut short as a booming voice reverberated in the hall.
"Everyone keep quiet!" All the people turned to look at Xu Cheng. "I have a solution if you guys give me a chance to speak up." When everyone finally calmed down, he went on, "The only solution that can save all of us is the marriage between Xu Liqing and Lu Ge."
As his words fell, the hall was suddenly engulfed in silence as everyone stared at him in disbelief.
"Cheng, what do you mean?" Fu Lan tugged at Xu Cheng's sleeve.
Having an affair with the young master of Lu family was one thing but Fu Lan could never let her daughter marry into a small-fry like Lu family. Although Lu family had a high status in the society, it couldn't even challenge Fu family or Jun family's power much less Xu Family. How could she let her daughter be slaughtered like this?
