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

Lu Xi took a deep breath, exhaled, then shook his head, pretending not to care.

Lu Xi only went downstairs after Fu Nanzhou had steamed the remaining batter into cold noodles.

She had already prepared the coriander, grated the cucumber, fried some peanuts, and cut the cold skin and poured it all in. It was just enough for two large plates.

It was very quiet at the dinner table, and the crisp crunching sound of cucumbers could be heard.

Although Fu Nanzhou was taught not to talk while eating or sleeping, after marrying Lu Xi, he would respond because Lu Xi would always chat with him.

They were rarely so quiet as they were now.

"Xixi, are you angry?"

When Fu Nanzhou asked this question, Lu Xi knew that Fu Nanzhou actually knew everything and knew what kind of response she wanted when she said "I like you"

But he didn't give it.

Either they don't want to give it, or they can't give it, but for Lu Xi, the result is the same.

Lu Xi felt that this would make her even more embarrassed, because she was the one who fell in love first and it was she who turned her secret love into unrequited love.

But when she thought about it carefully, she was actually greedy, because when she first got married, she just wanted to find someone to live with, but now, she wanted not only marriage, but also love.

"No, you didn't provoke me, why should I be angry?" Lu Xi smiled obediently, as if nothing had happened.

Fu Nanzhou's breathing was a little sluggish.

It’s not that he didn’t know what she wanted at that time, but he was not sure whether he liked Lu Xi.

If he wasn't sure, he wasn't willing to give a response.

When I was with Gao Ning before, Gao Ning would often say, "Fu Nanzhou, I really like you."

At first he didn't respond, but after so many times, Gao Ning would get angry and ask him, "Fu Nanzhou, I said I like you, can you give me a response to let me know that you like me too?!"

Fu Nanzhou then gave Gao Ning the answer he wanted, "Well, I like you too."

But then Gao Ning got angry again, "Fu Nanzhou, can you not be so perfunctory every time?"

He was getting impatient. "Didn't I say I like you? What else do you want? Gao Ning, I still have things to learn. Can we talk about something meaningful on our date?!"

Gao Ning was so angry that she wanted to cry, "Is this called a date? Who dates in a library?! Fu Nanzhou, I want you to really like me, not just say you like me perfunctorily. If you are not sure that you like me, don't say the three words 'I like you' so easily. It really hurts me."

Fu Nanzhou is not sure about his feelings for Lu Xi now, so he can't give her a response, but she seems unhappy.

**

On Monday noon, Lu Xi went to the cafeteria to eat. She did not invite Fu Nanzhou, but instead made an appointment with her sister.

Seeing that her sister's face seemed to have some red marks and looked haggard, her face suddenly became bad, "Sister, what's wrong with your face?! Did your mother-in-law beat you again?!"

Lu Yao pretended to be calm and said, "It's okay. I did it myself to sober myself up."

"Awake for what?"

Lu Yao smiled faintly, "Just don't be greedy. After more than ten years, you are still like a little girl, longing for love. We are an old couple, just living together. Why do you keep thinking about those unrealistic things?"

"Xixi, you should have a good time with Nanzhou. Don't be in a bad mood all the time. I think Nanzhou is really good."

Lu Xi paused, and said in a muffled voice: "I want to divorce him."

Lu Yao frowned when she heard this, "Are you crazy? You can't live a good life, why do you want to get a divorce?"

"Sister, you don't understand. Didn't I tell you that he had a first love? I just can't get over it."

Snapped!

Lu Yao threw the chopsticks on the table and said, "Lu Xi, I'm telling you, if you dare to divorce me, don't recognize me as your sister!"

Everyone in the cafeteria looked over. Lu Xi's face turned red and she felt embarrassed. "Sister, what are you doing? So many people are watching us!"

Lu Yao then realized that she was too excited. She bit her lip and whispered, "I tell you, if you get divorced, you won't find someone as good as Nanzhou. How good is your life now? How many people envy you? Nanzhou treats you well, he earns a lot, you also earn a lot, and you two don't have children yet, how good is that?! And you follow Nanzhou, you have someone to rely on.

"Xixi, I'm tired of living under someone else's roof. We've lived like this since we were young. Now you have a home. Nanzhou can give you a warm home, so you should be content."

Lu Xi looked at Lu Yao steadily, "Sister, are you hiding something from me? What happened to you? Did Chen Ergou's mother come to see you? Or your aunt?"

"It's okay, I'm just in a bad mood. Okay, I won't say any more. Let's eat and go to work." Lu Yao didn't say anything after that.

Lu Xi knew her sister's character. If she didn't want to talk, no matter how much you asked, it would be useless.

When she was returning from the cafeteria, she ran into Pei Shaoqing.

"Pei..."

Pei Shaoqing didn't see her and hurriedly got into the president's exclusive elevator, and then the elevator door closed.

The two young ladies at the front desk looked towards the elevator door reluctantly, and one of them whispered, "Master Pei is here to see our president again?"

"Yes, I heard that they have known each other since childhood and have a very good relationship. He has the access card to the top floor and can use the exclusive elevator."

Lu Xi was stunned. Pei Shaoqing and the president of Fu Group have known each other since childhood?

He and Fu Nanzhou were childhood friends. Does Fu Nanzhou also know the president of the group?

Lu Xi started to have wild thoughts again, and actually thought that Fu Nanzhou was the president of Fu Corporation.

It's crazy.

**

CEO's office.

Pei Shaoqing knocked on the door and went in, his face serious, "I have something to talk to you about."

Fu Nanzhou looked calm and indifferent, and ordered in a cold tone, "Secretary Fang, you go first."

"Okay Mr. Fu."

Fang Min stepped out and couldn't help but glance at Pei Shaoqing. As expected, the CEO's friend was also extremely handsome. I wonder what these rich young masters grew up eating.

Pei Shaoqing transferred the file in his phone to Fu Nanzhou's computer, "Take a look."

As soon as Fu Nanzhou clicked on it, he heard a scream. His brows sank and he turned down the volume.

"Che Nan, you went to see Lu Xi again at night, didn't you?!"

"So what? She caused me to lose my job, so I'm going to kill her!" Che Nan's eyes were bloodshot, his face turned red, and the veins on his neck were bulging, making him look extremely hideous.

Lu Yao cried and punched him, "You beast! That's my sister, you beast!"

Snapped!

Che Nan swung his hand and slapped Lu Yao, causing her mouth to bleed. He then grabbed her hair and slammed her head against the bed with both hands, angrily cursing, "You curse again?!"

Li Qian threw the rag and rushed in, grabbing Chen Nan's arm and scolding: "You bastard, what are you doing?! What's wrong with you recently? Are you addicted to beating your wife?!"

"Mom, don't worry about it! She deserves a beating! Damn it, she even dared to call me a beast! Lu Yao, I'm telling you, next time you fucking talk to me, be careful!"

Lu Yao was hit so hard that she felt dizzy and her heart was chilled.

She could never have believed in her dreams that her marriage would turn out like this, and that the man she married would be like this.

Li Qian pulled Nan away and poked Lu Yao's temple with her finger, "You deserve a beating too. I told you to take good care of Nan Nan. He's in a bad mood recently. Don't make him angry, but you didn't listen. I'm telling you, Lu Yao, if anything happens to my eldest grandson, I'll fight you and your sister to the death!"

Lu Yao cried silently, "Mom, I want to stay at my aunt's house for a few days."

"Why are you going there? That's not your parents' home, don't play that on me." Li Qian was afraid that Lu Yao would abort the child.

Che Nan also glared at Lu Yao fiercely, "If you dare to leave home, I will break your legs! Give me your salary card! I will manage the money at home from now on! Also, get back the 600,000 yuan in your sister's hands! Damn it, you don't let me touch it, but you still want to spend my money? Dream on!"

Lu Yao was horrified: "That was what I gave to Lu..."

Before she could finish, Li Qian slapped her hard on the back of her head and said in a sharp voice: "That's our Che family's money, why should we give it to your sister?! You should get it back quickly, otherwise the next time Nan Nan hits you, I will let him beat you to death!"

Seeing this, Fu Nanzhou slammed his fist on the table and then stood up immediately.

Pei Shaoqing followed him, and the two of them went to the quality department together.

Fu Nanzhou suppressed his anger and said, "Xixi, come out with me!"
