Lu Xi's face turned pale, and she immediately became furious and almost blurted out: Divorce!

But she still suppressed her impulse and looked at him with a cold face. She was obviously angry but still suppressed her anger. "Fu Nanzhou, don't you think you are going too far? Even if you can't break it off, you can't be so abrupt."

"Don't be angry first." Fu Nanzhou took her hand and slowed down his tone. "I said no because I owe Gao Ning a life."

"I don't understand, why do you owe her a life?" Lu Xi was angry, but she really didn't understand.

Everything she knew about Fu Nanzhou came from Zhuang Yi. In addition to saying that he had been outstanding since childhood, Zhuang Yi also said that he was scary and not easy to mess with.

But Lu Xi had never seen these before.

Fu Nanzhou took a deep breath and wanted to tell her, but a trace of pain flashed across his eyes and he remained silent.

The waves were still beating against the rocks, and the blue fluorescence was still like the falling stars, but what lingered between the two was no longer romance, but suffocation.

Lu Xi didn't want to stay here anymore, so she stood up and said, "Let's go home. It rained yesterday, and it's too wet here. It's not very comfortable."

Fu Nanzhou nodded, "Okay, let's come back on a sunny day."

Lu Xi did not respond to him. It was not about whether the weather was sunny or not, it was about Gao Ning.

On the way back, Lu Xi and Fu Nanzhou didn't talk much.

After returning to the villa, Lu Xi went directly to the second bedroom.

Fu Nanzhou knew that Lu Xi was angry. He felt helpless as he thought that he had just coaxed the girl into giving her peace of mind, but now the little girl was angry with him again.

Will Lu Xi not mind Gao Ning only if she can show him her scars?

But he didn't want to.

Even if they are a couple, they should have each other's private space, and he doesn't think there is anything wrong with doing so.

Fu Nanzhou offers a rational marriage, while Lu Xi wants an emotional marriage.

If Fu Nanzhou could explain it, she would not be confused.

**

Lu Xi felt really upset, but Gao Ning just happened to add her as a friend again at this time, with the note "I have something important to discuss with you", so Lu Xi accepted it.

After getting through the friend, Gao Ning sent a message almost immediately: Lu Xi, I'm sorry.

Lu Xi: Miss Gao, I don't want to apologize now, I just hope you can stop bothering Fu Nanzhou. We are already married, and as an ex, you should leave gracefully. Good exes should be dead and never appear in front of Fu Nanzhou.

Gao Ning: Lu Xi, I just want to apologize to you. Why do you have to speak so harshly and curse me to death?

Lu Xi was getting a little impatient, pressing the screen of her phone quickly and hard: “Ms. Gao, if you have something to say, just say it directly. There’s no point in beating around the bush.”

Gao Ning: Lu Xi, I really love Nanzhou.

Lu Xi: It's your business if you love him, but does loving him mean I have to give up? Miss Gao, everyone has dignity. There's a very good saying that you should treat feelings like chewing gum. If it's not sweet anymore, spit it out. You and Fu Nanzhou have broken up for so many years, and you're still chewing it alone. What's the point?

When Gao Ning saw these words, his face turned pale: Nanzhou and I will never be separated, my mother saved his life!

Lu Xi was shocked, and immediately sent a message: Your mother saved Fu Nanzhou, is she hoping to use this so-called life-saving grace to morally blackmail you? !

Gao Ning didn't reply.

Lu Xi threw her phone aside in a rage, her heart still in turmoil and she was very angry.

After a while, there was a knock on the door, and Fu Nanzhou's cold voice rang out: "Lu Xi, open the door."

As soon as Lu Xi opened the door, she was met with Fu Nanzhou's handsome face that was as cold as frost.

"Don't mention Gao Ning's mother in front of Gao Ning anymore! That's her pain, you shouldn't rub salt into her wounds!"

Lu Xi's body stiffened at first, and then her nose felt sore, "How did I rub salt into her wounds?"

But what responded to her was Fu Nanzhou's back.

Lu Xi felt aggrieved and didn't sleep well the whole night. The next day, she made an appointment with Zhuang Yi to have lunch in the cafeteria.

After hearing what Lu Xi said, Zhuang Yi poked at the braised lion's head on the plate and said casually, "Sister Gao Ning must have taken a screenshot of your conversation."

"Did I say something inappropriate?" Lu Xi didn't understand why Fu Nanzhou was so angry.

Zhuang Yi shook her head, "I just heard from my mother that Gao Ning's mother's death was related to my uncle, and my uncle has never gotten over it.

"I told you when you two just got married, don't like my uncle. He can't forget Gao Ning. Do you regret it now?"

Lu Xi lowered her eyes, "This is not something I can control. How could I have thought that I would fall in love with someone so quickly?"

Zhuang Yi nodded, "That's right, people can hold back their poop and pee, but they can't hold back their love."

It was originally a very sad topic, but Zhuang Yi's words "holding poop and pee" instantly ruined the atmosphere.

Lu Xi was so angry that she laughed, "Zhuang Yi, let's eat."

"It's a rough statement, but it makes sense. I can hold back from pooping for a whole day, but I can't hold back from not liking my white moonlight. But it's also my fault. I should have gone on a blind date with you at the time and not met my uncle."

Lu Xi actually didn't regret meeting Fu Nanzhou.

"By the way, is there any news about Chen Ergou? Damn it, if I was there at that time, I would have kicked his balls into pieces." Zhuang Yi was furious when he thought of this.

Lu Xi shook her head, "Not yet. The contractor who hired him ran away, and I don't know when he can be caught. But I feel that the contractor is just a middleman, making a profit from the price difference. He has no grudge against me, so why would he spend money to find Chen Ergou to bully me?"

Zhuang Yi nodded, "Of course, it's okay. The person in charge of this case is Qin Lie, and I heard he's quite capable. He was brought up by Gao Ning's mother herself. Oh, yes, Gao Ning's mother used to be a police officer. When she was young, she was a policewoman in the Economic Investigation Brigade. I've seen her photo, she's very, very handsome."

Lu Xi was completely stunned.

Policemen.

Then what she said last night was wrong. Gao Ning's mother died because of Fu Nanzhou. How could she still talk about moral kidnapping? !

**

After get off work in the afternoon, Lu Xi did not wait for Fu Nanzhou and clocked out normally.

She came out of the building with Li Xiang and Sister Chen. A tall and strong middle-aged woman with short hair walked towards them aggressively.

At first Lu Xi didn’t recognize him, but when she saw the way he walked, she immediately thought of Chen Ergou’s mother.

"Lu Xi, get Er Gouzi out for me."

Chen Ergou's mother was Li Guixiang, a well-known shrew in the surrounding villages, and she was famous for spoiling her children.

If her son goes out to fight, don't come back crying. If he comes back crying, Li Guixiang will definitely go out with a sickle, grab the other person's child and threaten him, forcing him to apologize to her son, otherwise she will cut his ears.

Everyone in the village was afraid of her and would take a detour when they met her.

At that time, Lu Xi was pressed into a puddle of water by Chen Ergou and almost drowned. Her sister was slapped twice by Li Guixiang and was deaf for two days.

Lu Xi tightened her face, "Your son has committed a crime, so he must be punished."

"You damned girl, how can you talk like that? What do you mean by crime? ! What crime did you commit? ! I didn't really rape you, why are you in jail? ! I'm telling you, if my Ergou goes to jail, I'll never forgive you!"

Lu Xi was furious, "It's already this time, and you're still protecting him? When he was a child, you indulged him. He bullied the children in the village, and you never said anything about your own children's problems. Now, he's been spoiled. He's been stealing, gambling, and whoring. Has he stopped doing that?

"Just talking about gambling debts, how much have you paid him back?! It's better for him to go to jail this time, and he can reform himself in there. If he continues to gamble, both of you will lose your money. What's the point of him committing crimes?"

When Chen Ergou's mother heard this, her face immediately turned red, and she rushed forward angrily and grabbed Lu Xi's hair.

"Little hoof, I'm going to tear your nasty mouth apart!"
