Sir, How About A Marriage?

Chapter 288: Jumping Off a Building

On the rooftop balcony of the inpatient building.

Feng Man carried her child as she walked back and forth along the ledge of the balcony of the hospital she once worked at. She looked down at the bustling street and thought about the time when life was good.

Her family had given everything they had to find her a stable job. With that, a new chapter of her life had begun.

At that time, her Seventh Aunt and her Eighth Aunt had said places like hospitals were the easiest to meet the wealthy. After all, illnesses did not discriminate between the rich and the poor. One could have all the money in the world, but one would not be able to avoid falling sick, right?

Her aunts fervently prayed she would meet a rich man. Perhaps, he would fall in love with her while he was getting treated and marry her. They urged her not to be picky and to seize the chance as soon as possible. At that time, they would be able to bask in her glory.

Indeed, Feng Man had met many rich men. However, she did not like any of them. The person she liked was that golden boy with a bright and gentle personality. It did not matter that he had a girlfriend. She successfully snatched him over and became his girlfriend. Moreover, he was from a wealthy family! Therefore, she did not take her aunts’ words to heart; she did not believe them! She only believed in herself; only she would be able to seize happiness for herself.

At this time, the security guards and a few medical staff came up to the rooftop. However, they did not dare to approach her.

Feng Man lowered her head and looked at her infant daughter with a smile. “Your life is really bitter. It’s as bitter as coptis. Do you know what’s a coptis? It’s the most bitter thing in the world. You have the Fu family’s blood coursing through your veins, but they don’t want you. Your life is really bitter. Both of us can’t enter the Fu family…”

“Feng Man! What are you doing?!”

It was Ding Ling.

Feng Man looked up and smiled sadly, “Sister Ling, call Fu Le now. Tell him I want to see him one last time.”

“Alright, alright, I’ll call him. Why don’t you step back from the ledge first?” Ding Ling said anxiously.

Feng Man shook her head. “No need. Don’t come over. I haven’t seen the person I want to see most yet so don’t force me, okay?”

Naturally, no one dared to corner her. They could try to persuade her and coax her to step back from the ledge.

However, Feng Man was determined. She stood on the ledge, rocking the infant in her arms gently as she stared at Ding Ling.

Ding Ling anxiously dialed Fu Le’s number a few times, but the call did not go through. After thinking about it for a moment, she borrowed a security guard’s phone to call Fu Le. This time, it started ringing. Then, she hurriedly shouted at Feng Man, “It’s ringing, it’s ringing!”

After a few rings, the call finally connected.

Ding Ling hurriedly put the phone on speaker mode.

However, instead of Fu Le’s voice, a woman’s soft and charming voice rang in the air.

“Hello? May I know who’s looking for President Fu?”

Ding Ling could not care less about the woman and hurriedly said, “Can you please tell Fu Le to come to the phone? Lives are at stake!”

The woman on the phone laughed. “If lives are at stake, why are you looking for President Fu? You should look for someone else. President Fu is very busy and doesn’t have time to care about other people’s affairs.”

Ding Ling was afraid the woman would end the call so she hastily shouted, “Fu Le! Feng Man is going to jump off the building! Please come to the hospital now!”

Upon hearing these words, the woman laughed again. “Jump off the building? Then, it’s even less of President Fu’s problem. If the person has yet to jump, call the firefighters; if the person hasn’t jumped, then call the police. Why are you calling President Fu?”

Ding Ling’s hands trembled, but she knew she could not turn the speaker mode off no matter what. She said angrily, “Feng Man is going to jump off the building with Fu Le’s child! Tell Fu Le to hurry over! Otherwise, both mother and daughter will be lost!”

“Crazy!” The woman cursed before she ended the call.

A slight breeze blew past.

There was a moment of silence before Ding Ling anxiously said, “Manman, don’t be rash. I’ll definitely find Fu Le. I’ll accompany you to his company to find him. Why don’t you just step back from the ledge first?”
