Chapter 375 - I Choose The Second Option

Bai Jun and Bai Fen continued to plead with the Old lady but their pleas fell on deaf ears.

When the old lady turned to leave, Bai Jun threatened her with her life and with tears running down her cheeks as she hit her forehead on the floor twice.

"Bai Jun!" Bai Fen said out of fear and immediately closed in on her.

"What do you think you're doing!" The old lady asked furiously. She was truly scared that Bai Jun would kill herself right in front of her.

Bai Jun's actions scared the shit out of her Aunties as they couldn't believe what they were seeing.

"Are you threatening your grandmother with your life?!" The third daughter-in-law asked while pointing angrily at her.

"How bold of you! Look how ungrateful you are! You think you can threaten to take your life because you are tired of living?" The first daughter-in-law said.

After her mother stopped her from hitting her head on the floor for the third time, Bai Jun said in tears, "Grandmother, I will really kill myself if you ask me to quit the job I worked so hard to get because of some misunderstanding. That is my sweat and my sense of achievement, please help me to continue having hope and the zeal to live!"

"Jun, please don't do this!" Bai Fen said in tears as she hugged her. She couldn't believe that her daughter just tried to take her life right in front of her.

Looking at her swollen and red-stained forehead, Bai Fen really shed genuine tears. Her daughter was really pitiable.

Old lady Bai was very angry and more to that, she was really afraid of her granddaughter killing herself. She began to think about the possibility of Bai Jun saying the truth that she didn't have feelings for Fu Hua and she got into FJ because she wanted to gain experience from the best.

Watching Bai Jun cry in her mother's arms with her swollen and blood-stained forehead, Old Lady Bai shut her eyes as she was in a dilemma.

Her other two daughters-in-law saw that she was being swayed by Bai Jun's actions and immediately said to her, "Mother, you can't be swayed, remember that you still have to give an explanation to the Fu family."

Being reminded of the Fu family, Old lady Bai was swayed to the other side again.

Bai Jun knew that her grandmother was conflicted about what to do, so she immediately added, "Grandmother please, you have to help your granddaughter, I have been falsely accused of having feelings for brother Hua. FangSu already humiliated me at the birthday party we went for right in front of everybody, if I quit, won't it be the same as me agreeing to the claims that I still have feelings for her brother?"

Hearing that her daughter was embarrassed at the birthday party she went for in grand style, Bai Fen felt all kinds of hate for the Fu family for bringing pain to her daughter.

She swore that she would get back at them once this phase passes.

Old lady Bai felt dizzy and almost fell if not for her daughters-in-law that helped to stabilize her immediately while calling out to her.

Glancing at her granddaughter while being supported, the old lady said, "Bai Jun, I will change my mind and give you another option."

"What! Mother!" Her two daughters-in-law called out in surprise, but they couldn't say anything more as the old lady raised her hand as a sign for them to be quiet.

Bai Jun and Bai Fen saw a glimmer of hope and immediately began to thank the old lady but she said for them not to thank her yet.

"You have only 2 options now and you are free to choose any one of them. One quit working in FJ and find another place to work or two, get married within 2 weeks and you can keep your job in FJ. What is your choice?"

Bai Jun felt her world collapse as she fell to the side. None of the two options given to her was favorable. She was thinking that wasn't it better to take her life than to pick an option.

Bai Fen was shocked by the option her mother-in-law gave. She didn't leave any leeway for them.

The other two daughters-in-law of the Bai family were satisfied with the old lady's options. Earlier, they had been afraid that the old lady would lose her sense of judgment because of Bai Jun's threats, now, they could sigh in relief.

Seeing the reactions from the mother and daughter on the floor, the third daughter-in-law said with a taunting gaze.

"Bai Jun, I thought you said you didn't have any feelings for Fu Hua, then why is it taking you so much time to pick one option?"

"Mother, Jun is still young to get married, why..." Bai Fen tried to speak up for her shocked daughter but the old lady cut her words off.

"If Jun is still too young to get married, then she can quit working in FJ on Monday."

Bai Fen's plans failed. And when she noticed that Bai Jun couldn't control her reactions, she immediately pinched her as a warning when no one was looking.

Things would be bad if the old lady discover that they lied to her, then she wouldn't care if her granddaughter commits suicide or not.

"Bai Jun time is going, what is your reply?" The first daughter-in-law asked with her gaze fixed on her. She was already impatient from the time she has wasted because of this matter when she would have sent the mother and daughter away from the family if she was the one making the decision.

Bai Jun knew that there was no time to waste, and even though this was a really difficult decision to make, she had no choice.

She didn't see any reason working in FJ is she was to her married to someone else, after all, she got into FJ for a chance to be with Fu Hua.

But thinking that it would be better to work in FJ where she would be seeing Fu Hua on many occasions, she chose the second option unwillingly.

"I choose the second option."

Right after making the announcement, she fainted to the shock of everyone present.
