Chapter 534: Chapter 0534: Red Fluff’s Night Run 2_1 Chapter 534: Chapter 0534: Red Fluff’s Night Run 2_1 Tears welled up in Bai Xue’s eyes all at once, as if pears battered by rain, not flowers drenched in dew.
“Aunt, you hit ? You hit ! You do nothing to help with the trouble at hand, instead you hit !” Bai Xue’s voice was filled with reproach. Yet, encountering the stern and icy gaze from Battalion Commander Bai, she trembled with fright and slowly knelt down in front of her, pulling at the hem of Battalion Commander Bai’s trousers. She sobbed and pleaded, “Aunt, help , please help . I don’t want to marry to General Su!”
Battalion Commander Bai did not kick her away, but neither did she respond to her plea.
“There is no other option, Bai Xue, the only path in front of you is to obey the command of the military!” declared Battalion Commander Bai.
“What? Aunt, no!”
Battalion Commander Bai crouched in front of her, leveling her eyes with Bai Xue’s face, she said mockingly, “You brought this upon yourself, Bai Xue. I advised you years ago, to know when to stop, to seize the opportunity while still young, to pick a husband from the well-off and influential admirers, no matter how they would turn out to be, regardless of their future accomplishnts. At the very least, you will have basked in glamour and wealth, and be under the shelter of his family’s power. There would be no need to worry about who you might end up with. You didn’t listen! You always fantasized about a man who is young, handso, talented, and prestigious in every aspect. You ca here, you’ve t Colonel Lu, but sadly, destiny didn’t provide you with the opportunity. Haven’t your several years in the art troupe given you enough warning through the incident with Hao Xiaoi last year?”
Upon hearing Hao Xiaoi’s na, Bai Xue shrank back.
Initially, the man had set his sights on her, but she was unwilling. Despite his capabilities and status, his age was too much for her to look past. She ran a secret ticking operation with an admirer from the high-profile community, had him secretly pass along the ssage to the military leaders and in the end, the object of the man’s interest was switched to Hao Xiaoi.
She could do the sa now too!
Bai Xue excitedly grabbed Battalion Commander Bai’s arm, “Aunt, Aunt! Is not the military’s objective to find a wife for General Su? Switching to a different candidate will do! There are so many female soldiers in the art troupe, any one of them will do. It doesn’t have to be . Forced wedlock yields no sweet fruit, The Commander and General Su will understand, they surely will!”
“Pure fantasy!” on that note, Battalion Commander Bai hastily shook off Bai Xue’s hand from her arm.
She said, how would the military zone leaders have noticed Hao Xiaoi, so it turned out her niece was the one pulling the strings! Hao Xiaoi, back then, was already in a relationship with a man nad Zhang Jun from the art troupe, and they were planning to get married.
After Hao Xiaoi married General Wu, Zhang Jun was devastated. He was now only doing nial tasks and never performing on stage again.
Bai Xue was thrown off to the side by Battalion Commander Bai and couldn’t help but burst into tears.
“Quiet!” Battalion Commander Bai bellowed in a low voice, “Do you want the people outside to hear your cries? Do you want the Commander and General Su to know about your unwillingness? Stop dreaming, Bai Xue.”
“Aunt, I really don’t want to marry. I truly don’t!” Bai Xue knelt upright, fell down at Battalion Commander Bai’s feet and sobbed uncontrollably, “I will follow your advice, Aunt, I will follow your advice. Once I return to the Capital, I’ll imdiately… imdiately marry one of those high-ranking admirers of mine. There are quite a few who have expressed their wish to marry . Please help , don’t let marry General Su!”
“There’s no chance left for you, Bai Xue”. A trace of pity flickered in Battalion Commander Bai’s eyes, “If it weren’t for this, you could have returned to marry so high-ranking official’s son, but now…”
