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

"I know you mind Gao Ning." Fu Nanzhou said, taking off the frog head on his head.

His hair was completely soaked with sweat, sticking wetly to his face, and his handsome face was also covered in sweat, as if he had just emerged from the water.

But Fu Nanzhou's black eyes were as if splashed with thick ink, dark and serious.

Lu Xi quickly ran to get him a towel, "Wipe it off quickly."

Fu Nanzhou took off the doll's clothes, and the expression on his handsome face was very serious, "Don't worry, let's solve the problem between us first.

"I know you mind Gao Ning. I have thought about it seriously. I can't completely cut off contact with her. After all, her mother saved my life, so I can't just ignore her.

"But I promise to maintain a good sense of boundaries. If you have any concerns, I will call her now and tell her that she and I are just good friends."

Lu Xi's heart trembled, and she was a little at a loss for a moment. She had made up her mind to divorce and should not waver.

But Fu Nanzhou was the first boy she liked, and he didn't commit any unforgivable crime.

"Gao Ning's mother..."

Fu Nanzhou pulled her to sit down, his tone bitter, “Her name is Liang Shuang, and she is a very powerful criminal police officer.

"When I was fifteen, I was dragged into a van by a group of people. Aunt Liang happened to see it and got on the van without caring that she was on vacation.

“They took me to an unfinished building and called my father to demand a ransom.

"My family had agreed to pay the ransom, but the gang didn't intend to let me go and wanted to kill me immediately. Aunt Liang couldn't wait for rescue and shot away the other party's knife, thus exposing herself.

"The kidnappers were extremely vicious and used me to threaten Aunt Liang to put down her gun, and then several people controlled her.

"They injected her with drugs and broke both of her ankles with a hammer.

"I was right there at the time, but I couldn't do anything. I could only listen to Aunt Liang's heart-wrenching screams and beg them to let her go.

"Later, they heard the sound of police sirens and stopped. But because they knew Aunt Liang was a police officer, they stabbed her in the chest out of anger and then tried to kill me to silence me.

"Auntie Liang used her last bit of strength to grab the bomb and forced them to let me go, otherwise she would detonate it.

"She said to me, 'Child, please go quickly and help me deliver the cake to my daughter. Tell her that I can't celebrate her birthday. Also, promise me that you will take care of her for me.' I cried and agreed.

"Those people knew they couldn't escape when the police came, so they just wanted to detonate the bomb and die together. Aunt Liang desperately held the detonator in her arms so that I could escape.

"I had just escaped from the unfinished building when it exploded. Aunt Liang died. When her colleagues carried her out, she was already... in pieces."

At the end, Fu Nanzhou's voice was tense to the extreme in order to suppress the sob.

The scene at that time is still vivid in his mind. Fu Nanzhou doesn't want to recall it. Every time he thinks of it, he feels cold all over, just like jumping into icy water naked in the dead of winter, and the chill instantly penetrates deep into his bones.

That day was painful for him, and even more painful for Gao Ning.

That day was Gao Ning's birthday. She and Gao Chengshan were waiting to celebrate her birthday with Liang Shuang, but unfortunately, what they waited for was the news that Liang Shuang had died.

When Fu Nanzhou delivered the cake, Gao Chengshan did not blame him. Gao Ning did not see him. She just cried at the top of her lungs in the morgue, repeatedly shouting "Mom".

Later, Gao Chengshan and Gao Ning never mentioned Liang Shuang's life-saving grace to Fu Nanzhou. Even the reason Gao Ning was with him was because of Ji Rou's introduction, not because of Liang Shuang.

The reason why Fu Nanzhou agreed to Gao Ning was actually because of Liang Shuang. Otherwise, at that age, he would never have thought about falling in love.

Over the years, Fu Nanzhou never mentioned what happened to anyone because it was too painful and he felt too guilty.

Lu Xi opened her mouth, unable to find the right words.

No wonder Fu Nanzhou said that it was impossible to completely cut off contact with Gao Ning. How could he give up such a heavy life-saving favor? !

Fu Nanzhou promised Gao Ning's mother that he would take care of Gao Ning, and before Gao Ning died, how could he go back on his word? !

"Xixi, I'm telling you all this today just to tell you that I really want to live a good life with you. Can you give me a chance?" Fu Nanzhou sorted out his emotions.

Whenever he mentioned Liang Shuang, he would feel uncomfortable, so he would force himself not to mention it or think about it.

Lu Xi pursed her lips, and a serious expression appeared on her pretty and clean little face.

"Wife." Fu Nanzhou spoke again.

Lu Xi herself was also hesitant, should she agree to Mr. Fu?

In fact, she knew that with this relationship, Gao Ning and Fu Nanzhou would definitely be entangled in the future.

If Fu Nanzhou's attitude still leans towards Gao Ning at that time, there will definitely be conflicts between them.

However, she really likes this man.

After thinking for a while, Lu Xi said, "I need to think about it carefully. I can't be soft-hearted and stick to you just because you coaxed me. I need time."

"Okay." Fu Nanzhou didn't make things difficult for her. The girl didn't want a divorce impulsively, but had thought about it, so it really took time.

However, since she agreed to do it, that's a good thing.

He really doesn't want to get divorced.

The days spent with Lu Xi were very comfortable. He could feel the simple happiness of two people in one room, three meals a day and four seasons. This was the marriage he wanted.

If he must get married, he would rather choose Lu Xi than be controlled by his family in a marriage.

Gao Ning said that Lu Xi could not give him stimulation, but Gao Ning did not understand him. What he originally wanted was not stimulation, but the comfort and harmony of being together.

"Mrs. Fu, this is for you."

Looking at such a big bunch of red roses, Lu Xi's pretty face turned red. It was really a big bouquet of flowers.

"Isn't this expensive?"

Fu Nanzhou smiled and said, "This little money is not expensive if I want to please my wife."

Lu Xi glared at him with annoyance, "Don't buy it next time. It will wither in a few days. It's better to buy something practical."

Although she said so, Lu Xi still held the big bunch of red roses and sniffed them. Her whole face turned pink, which was even more beautiful than the red roses.

Fu Nanzhou looked at Lu Xi's little face. The more he looked, the more he felt that she was actually not like Gao Ning, but he couldn't tell how he felt.

"Fu Nanzhou, go change your clothes quickly. It's hot in the dog days of summer."

Fu Nanzhou did not move, but held Lu Xi's face and kissed her deeply on the lips.

Lu Xi opened her dark eyes and looked at him, "You..."

"Can't we kiss?" Fu Nanzhou asked deliberately.

Lu Xi frowned, "No, I just promised you to consider it, but I didn't say I would definitely not divorce you."

Fu Nanzhou seemed not to hear her and kissed her on the lips again, "I'm going to take a shower and change clothes. We'll find some vases to put the flowers in later."

Lu Xi stared at his back, "Mr. Fu, you look like a gangster."

Fu Nanzhou turned around and smiled, "I only do this in front of my wife."

Lu Xi curled her lips, "You're really good at talking."

She originally wanted to say "glib", but it seemed not right. Fu Nanzhou's face was too handsome and refreshing, and had nothing to do with greasy.

When Fu Nanzhou went to take a shower, she put away the doll's clothes. She didn't know where he got the clothes from.

Looking at the bouquet of roses again, Lu Xi held it on the table, then supported her cheeks with both hands, looked at the flowers, and couldn't help laughing.

It's a really big bouquet. How many are there? 99?

Lu Xi held her cheek with one hand and counted the flowers one by one, "1, 2, 3, 4..."

Oh my god, it’s really 99 flowers?

It is said on the Internet that 99 roses represent everlasting, steadfast love and eternal commitment.

Does Fu Nanzhou know this?
