Perhaps not hearing her response, Mr. Bingley turned his head in time, slightly frowning with a look of displeasure that did not hide his aversion, and spoke, "So you just want me to be engaged with you? Fine, I agree, but what you promised me had better be fulfilled!"
The male protagonists words were really uncomfortable to hear.
Elizabeth instinctively raised her eyebrows and looked at him. Her expectations were immediately dashed. She had thought that if even a supporting character like Mr. Darcy was so good-looking, then Mr. Bingley must be even better. However, upon seeing him, she was greatly disappointed.
Strictly speaking, Mr. Bingley was also good-looking, but either because Elizabeth had seen too many good-looking people in the entertainment industry or because her first impression of him was not good, in any case, in Elizabeths eyes, he was indeed not as good as Mr. Darcy, whom she had just met.
She wondered what the original owner of this body had seen in this man, and Elizabeth complained in her heart, silently rolling her eyes.
"And what scheme are you plotting now?" Mr. Bingley suddenly intensified his tone and asked in a low voice.
Startled, Elizabeth shivered, finally pulling her thoughts back, looked up and down at him, snorted, and walked past: "You want to be engaged with me? Im not willing to marry you now!"
Joke, she has seen the whole script.
Ever since this Elizabeth forced an engagement with Mr. Bingley, she was completely resented by him. In the end, he not only took over the Bennet familys property but also left Elizabeths body in the wilderness, not even having a tombstone, which was extremely tragic.
Since she is now Elizabeth, she will not let herself end up like this!
To change fate, one must cut off the source.
Therefore, this engagement is absolutely impossible! Not only can she not be engaged with Mr. Bingley, but she must stay away as much as possible!
Obviously, her reaction was unexpected to Mr. Bingley. He suddenly stood up, his brows furrowed, as if unable to see through her thoughts, and asked harshly again, "What kind of trick are you playing? You were the one who said you wanted to be engaged, and now youre the one who regrets it. Are you playing with us?"
Elizabeth smiled lightly, wanting to refute with a smile, but before she could speak, her mother who had just come in from outside heard this sentence and spoke before her, a little anxiously: "What? Not engaged again?"
This question was directed at Elizabeth.
Elizabeth, feeling guilty, touched the tip of her nose, and sat down on the edge of the bed with a forced smile: "Mom, I think I was too impulsive and suddenly dont want to decide on such a major life event so hastily."
"But we have already released the news, Elizabeth. Your impulsiveness makes the whole Bennet family and the Bingley family a joke!" Her mothers face was full of astonishment. She had been thinking of giving her daughter a surprise, but she never expected such a change.
Standing next to her, Mr. Bingley sneered, "Alright, dont put on a show anymore. If it werent for you to release the news of the upcoming marriage between the Bennet and Bingley families in advance, forcing me into a corner, would I have come to the hospital? At this point, why are you still acting, Elizabeth?"
As he spoke, Mr. Bingley slammed a copy of the newspaper that was on the bedside table next to Elizabeth. Elizabeth glanced at it and saw the words "engagement" prominently written on it.
"Who says Im acting? Dont be so self-romanticized, Mr. Bingley. After all..." Elizabeth, with a clever move, said this, picked up the newspaper next to her, and slowly raised the corners of her lips, and continued: "After all, there is more than one son in the Bingley family. This only says that the Bennet family is going to be engaged with the Bingley family, but it doesnt say who it is."
As she wished, she saw the expression on Mr. Bingleys face change instantly, and Elizabeth smiled with satisfaction, then continued: "Besides, isnt the only one recognized internally in Bingley Enterprises just Mr. Darcy?"
Upon hearing this, Mr. Bingleys face darkened, "What do you mean?"
"What do I mean, dont you understand? The person I want to be engaged with is Mr. Darcy." Elizabeth said it clearly and explicitly.
In order not to die miserably in the future, Mr. BUG, I can only use you to block for now.
"What?" Both Mr. Bingley and her mother almost exclaimed in unison.
Elizabeth turned her head, and since she had already said it, she could only continue with a stiff neck: "Yes, I want to be engaged with Mr. Darcy, not with Mr. Bingley!"
In short, as long as she is not involved with the protagonists, the tragedy that followed should not happen!
As for Mr. Darcy, since he is a BUG, there will always be a way to solve it.
Mr. Bingleys inscrutable eyes stared at her for a while, and he seemed to want to say something, but in the end, he just glanced at her mother and finally only sneered: "Youd better not regret it. I have already agreed to your request, and it was you who regretted it. Dont blame me then."
"I will definitely not blame you!" Seeing hope of dissolving the engagement, Elizabeth firmly added, hoping that Mr. Bingley would disappear from her world immediately.
"Okay, I hope what you promised me will also be fulfilled." After saying this, Mr. Bingley left the ward quickly.
After sending away Mr. Bingley, Elizabeth heaved a long sigh, as if a big stone in her heart had been put down. However, what did she promise him?
Never mind, as long as she can stay away from the protagonist.
However, she had just breathed a sigh of relief when her mother quickly came up, "Elizabeth, are you serious about what you just said?"
"Of course, Im serious!" Elizabeth nodded without hesitation.
Upon hearing this, her mother wanted to speak but stopped for a while before continuing, "Then have you discussed this with Mr. Darcy?"
"Of course..." Elizabeths voice stopped abruptly. Well, she temporarily pulled Mr. Darcy in, and she definitely didnt discuss it.
But thinking about Mr. Darcys gentle appearance towards her just now, it should not be a big problem, right? He is a BUG, how much say can he have?
So Elizabeth nodded again to comfort her mother: "Of course, Mr. Darcy will definitely agree!"
