To avoid harassment from my brother-in-law, I got married to a wealthy man

Fu Nanzhou deliberately ignored the marriage certificate and smiled gently, "Mrs. Fu, what do you want to eat in the morning?!"

Before, when Lu Xi called him "Mr. Fu", her voice was always sweet, and to him it sounded like she was calling him husband.

Now he is the polite "Mr. Fu", who is very courteous but also keeps a distance. He doesn't like that and still prefers the way they used to get along.

Lu Xi brought the porridge over and said softly, "Cake and cornmeal porridge, let's eat quickly, and then go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get the divorce certificate."

Fu Nanzhou's hands froze and he frowned slightly, "Xixi, I thought you were angry last night, but you have calmed down after a night."

He lied.

In fact, when he saw the marriage certificate, he knew Lu Xi was serious.

Lu Xi said in a muffled voice: "I was angry yesterday, but I am serious about divorce, and I have to cut my losses in time."

Lu Xi is very anxious now and wishes she could leave right away, the sooner the better. Even a second later she might soften her heart.

Fu Nanzhou sighed helplessly. He was originally very hungry, but now he couldn't eat anything.

"I won't leave."

"That won't work. If you don't live a good life, I won't live with you. If you don't leave me, I will file for divorce. Anyway, we have no feelings for each other in the first place, and it can't even be considered a breakdown in our relationship."

Lu Xi said stubbornly, with an unprecedented seriousness in her big eyes.

Fu Nanzhou was choked and speechless. He filed for divorce?! No feelings?!

He was about to say something when his phone vibrated. He saw that it was Grandpa's number. He frowned and answered the call, "Grandpa."

"Nanzhou, what's going on with the Ji family? Your Grandpa Ji came home early in the morning and said that you refused to let Ji Rou go."

Fu Nanzhou said "hmm", stood up and walked outside.

"Nanzhou, Grandpa knows that you have your own ideas, but after all, we have been friends with the Ji family for decades. Since I was young, the two families have always been friends. Can you please stop pursuing me for Grandpa's sake?"

Fu Nanzhou's tone sank, "Grandpa, this matter is not small."

"Nanzhou, grandpa is begging you at my age, don't you even give grandpa face?"

Fu Nanzhou pinched his brows tiredly. On one side was his grandfather, and on the other was Lu Xi. He was caught in the middle and felt awkward.

Lu Xi didn't hear what they said, but she guessed it.

She actually went to the study last night and heard what Fu Nanzhou and Jin Yu said, which touched her heart.

Lu Xi did not deny that apart from the Gao Ning incident, Fu Nanzhou was really nice. He did not force her and also considered things from her perspective.

Jin Yu was angry about Ji Rou's matter. Ji Ran's siblings must have blamed Fu Nanzhou as well. Now his grandfather called to plead for mercy.

Lu Xi lowered her head and stirred the porridge with chopsticks. Was she wrong? Was she being too aggressive?

Fu Nanzhou came back at some point, picked up the pocket cake, chuckled and asked, "What is this called?"

Lu Xi was absent-minded and paused for a moment before saying, "Pocket biscuits."

"delicious."

Lu Xi didn't reply to him.

Fu Nanzhou was helpless. If it had happened before, the little girl would definitely smile embarrassedly, and he would also say, "Do it more often in the future."

Everything was fine some time ago, how come it suddenly changed?

"Xixi, please stop being angry, okay? It's all my fault."

Lu Xi looked at him for a long while before speaking, "Then you and Gao Ning..."

A phone call interrupted her.

Fu Nanzhou picked up the phone, his brows drooping, "What did you say?! Something went wrong in the lab? Okay, I'll be there right away!"

He immediately stood up and said hurriedly, "Sorry, I have to go to the company right away. Let's talk when I come back in the evening."

Pei Shaoqing on the other end of the phone, what laboratory? What he just said was: Come out to play ball, and by the way, talk about your brother-in-law.

golf course.

Fu Nanzhou changed into sportswear, put on white gloves, swung the club with both hands, and the white ball flew into the sky and disappeared.

"Pfft..." Pei Shaoqing couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Brother, what are you doing? Are you playing golf as if it were tennis?"

Fu Nanzhou let out a long sigh, "It's a bit annoying."

"What's the matter? Because of my sister-in-law?" Pei Shaoqing was very shrewd and hit the nail on the head.

Fu Nanzhou said, "Lu Xi wants to divorce me."

Pei Shaoqing seemed to be listening to a joke, smiling, "Is it because of Gao Ning's matter?"

"Yeah. She said I didn't live a good life, so she didn't want to live with me anymore." Fu Nanzhou couldn't help but frowned in annoyance after saying this. "I always felt that the girl was just saying that in anger, but she was very serious. The marriage certificate was ready this morning. If you hadn't called, she would have dragged me to the Civil Affairs Bureau."

Pei Shaoqing expressed his understanding, "Just like my nanny, every time she said she was quitting, she would look stubborn. Because she looked cute, I would easily overlook her determination, and I would always have to go find her."

"However, from the way my sister-in-law acted yesterday, it was obvious that she is not a delicate person. Gao Ning's matter must have touched her bottom line."

Fu Nanzhou was helpless. "I didn't coax her to begin with. After last night's disturbance, she completely lost her temper."

"Hahaha, the fluff is very appropriate. The kitten is also very good at fluffing its fur."

Fu Nanzhou glanced at Pei Shaoqing and said, "She is not angry, she is sincere. That girl is a very persistent person."

Pei Shaoqing shrugged, "Yeah, I can tell."

"Is there any way?" Fu Nanzhou smiled bitterly.

Where had Pei Shaoqing ever seen Fu Nanzhou like this?

The flower of the mountain, the ascetic Buddhist, these are their most profound impressions of Fu Nanzhou.

Even when Fu Nanzhou and Gao Ning were together, they were not like those young couples in their first love who wanted to stick together every minute.

At that time, Gao Ning's biggest complaint was that Fu Nanzhou was too busy, had no time for dating, didn't understand romance, couldn't coax girls, and acted more like an outsider than a boyfriend.

"Girls, you still have to be sincere. They are delicate and sensitive, and they can sense your sincerity.

"Why is my sister-in-law angry? Isn't it just Gao Ning?

"Tell Gao Ning in front of her that you are just ordinary friends from now on and that you should have some sense of boundaries in everything, otherwise you should never contact her again.

"Also, you have to put on a brave face and act like a spoiled child, showing weakness, and saying something like, 'Honey, please hug me, please.'"

Pei Shaoqing seemed quite serious at first, but as he spoke later he got goose bumps all over his body, it was so corny.

But he's not that extravagant anyway, so it doesn't matter.

Fu Nanzhou pursed his lips and snorted coldly, "Apart from these bad ideas, is that all?"

"Do you want to comfort your wife or should I? Your wife is your own, so you don't want to figure out a solution yourself. I'm giving you advice, but you still despise me?"

Pei Shaoqing was very angry. He was given advice but still complained. This old man was really difficult to serve.

**

As for Lu Xi, since Fu Nanzhou had something to do, she decided not to go out today.

But around ten o'clock, Fu Dongzhou and Zhuang Yi came, and brought Ji Rou with them.

As soon as she saw them, Lu Xi knew what they meant.

Fu Dongzhou smiled gently, "Xiao Xi, the third brother is not here?"

Lu Xi put down the phone and said, "He went to the company. Brother, please sit down and I'll pour you some water."

Fu Dongzhou waved his hand quickly, "Don't be busy, we are here for Ji Rou's matter."

Ji Rou knelt down again, “Sister-in-law, I’m sorry.”

Lu Xi pursed her lips and said nothing.

"Sister-in-law, can you forgive me? My dad almost beat me to death last night, and I know I was wrong. I promise that this is the only time I will do this again, okay?

"I'm just 26. If I really go in, it will be a stain. My dad said that if this matter is not resolved, he will kick me out of the house and leave the Ji family. I am nothing."
