"What?! You are actually being forced into marriage by your parents!"
Yan Chengjie almost spat out the coffee he had just sipped.
He quickly grabbed a napkin, awkwardly wiping the coffee that had spilled at the corner of his mouth, and looked at Lin Yaru in disbelief, scanning her up and down. A beauty like her could be pressured into marriage? Half of the women in the country would surely be so enraged they would want to jump into the Huangpu River and drown themselves.
Looking at Lin Yaru's appearance, Yan Chengjie always thought she was only in her early twenties. He had only recently learned that Lin Yaru was actually already twenty-five years old! When he discovered her true age, he was quite shocked.
How could a twenty-five-year-old woman still have such a sweet, innocent, nearly perfect face like an angel?
However... her personality was truly hard to praise. She was the epitome of a two-faced person! Especially after witnessing how Lin Yaru played tricks on her dear older brother... Yan Chengjie couldn't help but shiver all over and shook his head.
One could say she was truly a reincarnation of a demon; her sweet, innocent face contrasted sharply with her impatient, mischievous nature and love for revenge... it was simply contradictory! How could such traits coexist in one person?
"Is it really true? Is it cooked or fried?! I'm in a critical situation right now. If I don't come up with a solution quickly, I'm going to end up marrying that descendant of Jia Baoyu. I absolutely do not want to marry that 'Jia Sire'!" Lin Yaru huffed angrily at Yan Chengjie.
She didn't want her future children to go to school and have their teachers or classmates ask what their father's name was. 'Jia Sire'—what an awful name! It would be so embarrassing!
"Jia Sire?" Yan Chengjie asked in confusion. Well, that name really wasn't great; he couldn't understand how his parents came up with it! Just look at how ancient names were chosen—Jia Baoyu! Although fictional, it still meant 'precious jade'! Jia Diamond or Jia Gemstone would be better than something so morbid.
"I think you should just run away from the marriage," Yan Chengjie suggested slowly, offering a bad idea.
"Running away from marriage! You make it sound so easy! My financial power is entirely in my parents' hands. If you want me to run away, am I supposed to starve myself?" Lin Yaru exclaimed, frustrated as she held her head.
"But you could get a job... go to the supermarket, or work as a clerk. Once you find someone you like, you can go home. By then, you'll have already made things official, and your parents won't have a choice but to accept it. The worst they could do is reluctantly agree."
"That's a good idea, but..." Lin Yaru cautiously glanced at Yan Chengjie and murmured, "I don't know how to do anything."
Yan Chengjie first widened his eyes in surprise, then showed an expression of helplessness. He shrugged and spread his long hands.
"What kind of attitude is that?! I'm your friend! Are you really going to act like this when your friend is in trouble?" Lin Yaru was upset with his indifferent attitude and complained to Yan Chengjie, feeling both angry and frustrated.
"What do you want me to do? Should I pretend to be your boyfriend and help you deceive your parents?!" Yan Chengjie replied somewhat irritably.
