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

Lu Xi's voice was loud and her rebuttal was even more powerful. Her fair and pretty face did not hide her anger at all, and she really showed her emotions on her face.

In contrast, Gao Ning was much calmer and more composed. He had frowned just now, but now his brows relaxed and he chuckled, "Lu Xi, don't be so hostile to me. We shouldn't be enemies."

She gave people the feeling that she wanted to create an image of tolerance and magnanimity to set off Lu Xi's sharpness and narrow-mindedness, just like a rich lady who was born into a wealthy family and received all kinds of high-end education and a country girl who had no culture and no vision.

Gao Ning was silently looking down on Lu Xi.

Lu Xi is not stupid, how could she not feel it?

But she didn't pretend to be magnanimous. Instead, she smiled coldly, "How do you think I should treat the woman who pesters my husband? Treat her like a real sister and say, 'Oh, what a coincidence, we both like the same man, we are really like-minded, let's become sworn brothers'? But I'm sorry, I saw that my husband's ex was in a bad mood, so I couldn't control myself and had to be weird."

Gao Ning looked at her bluntly, "I'm here to apologize. It's true that I didn't stop Ji Rou in time. Believe it or not, I tried to stop Ji Rou when she first said she wanted to teach you a lesson, but Ji Rou was stubborn and didn't listen to me.

"I'm also sorry that I framed you because I was unconscious due to taking drugs. As for asking Nanzhou to pick me up at the airport, it's..."

Lu Xi couldn't bear to listen any longer and interrupted Gao Ning with a frown, "Ms. Gao, you don't need to explain these again, it's boring."

A trace of hatred suddenly flashed across Gao Ning's eyes, but it was fleeting and difficult to capture.

This girl looks well behaved, but she is actually very stubborn and more difficult to deal with than expected.

But it's not surprising. After all, she just got a house worth more than 8 million from Nanzhou. No matter how stupid she is, she should know that Nanzhou's identity is not ordinary. A girl like Lu Xi's background will definitely do everything she can to get hold of Nanzhou and will not back down easily.

Gao Ning refused to let her beat around the bush and said bluntly, "Lu Xi, if that's the case, then I'll be frank. I hope you divorce Nan Zhou. You should know that you are not worthy of him, and he loves me. He only married you because you are a substitute.

"Of course, I have to take back the house he gave you. It doesn't belong to you. We can give you 500,000 yuan as compensation, which is a huge sum for a college graduate like you. Think it over carefully."

Lu Xi was suddenly so angry that she laughed, "This is exactly why Miss Gao asked me out, right? But what right do you have to ask me for this? This house was not given to me by you, but by Fu Nanzhou. You have no right to take it back! Also, you said that Fu Nanzhou treated me as a substitute, but he told me that he and you are over, and he wants to live a good life with me."

Gao Ning curled her red lips and said, "Listen to this."

Lu Xi was annoyed. What was this woman doing? What was she listening to?

She clicked on the recording file and played it directly, and Fu Nanzhou's voice came out from it.

"When I first met her, I did think she looked a bit like you. Grandpa happened to force me to marry, and I impulsively married Lu Xi because I was rebellious. Gao Ning, I can't just ignore you. You are very important to me."

Lu Xi's hand on her leg suddenly exerted force, her face turned pale, but she tried to maintain her composure: "What does this mean?"

"Lu Xi, you know, the first time I saw you, I knew that you were a very smart, very rational and sober girl. Some things don't need to be said too bluntly, you know."

Gao Ning didn't want to fall out with him, as that would not be good for either her or Lu Xi, and would also make Nanzhou dislike her.

Lu Xi was only 22 years old, so she couldn't be that mature. She said with a cold face, "I don't understand! I just know that Fu Nanzhou's present and future don't have you."

After Lu Xi finished speaking, she stood up and was about to leave.

Gao Ning quickly stood up and said, "Lu Xi, don't leave."

Lu Xi frowned and pulled her hand back, but Gao Ning suddenly fell backwards.

At the same time, Fu Nanzhou's tall figure also strode over!

When he got there, Fu Nanzhou looked at Lu Xi fiercely, "Xixi, help her up."

Lu Xi's eyes were a little red.

Seeing this, Fu Nanzhou quickly slowed down his tone and said, "I mean it's not convenient for me to help her up. Don't you want me to maintain a sense of boundaries with her?"

Lu Xi and Gao Ning were both stunned for a moment.

Gao Ning was a little surprised. Why could Nan Zhou still speak to Lu Xi so gently?! Shouldn't he have reprimanded Lu Xi harshly?

Is it her problem?

"Nanzhou, I'm fine. I can get up by myself. And Lu Xi didn't do it on purpose. She must have been really annoyed by me, so she pushed me."

Fu Nanzhou looked at her coldly, his voice as cold as ice, "Gao Ning, didn't I tell you not to meet Lu Xi alone?"

Gao Ning pulled the corner of his mouth, "I'm sorry Nanzhou, I just want to apologize to Lu Xi. Before, Ji Rou thought that the house was given to me by you, so Ji Rou said a lot of things that made Lu Xi unhappy. I was also worried that she had some thoughts in her mind, so I made an appointment with Lu Xi."

Lu Xi glared at Gao Ning, "That's not what you said at all."

Gao Ning smiled bitterly, "Lu Xi, I know that I am not worthy of Nanzhou now, and I have never thought about snatching him back. You don't need to be so hostile to me and lie to slander me."

Fu Nanzhou leaned down slightly, "Is what she said true? Tell me, I want to hear the truth."

"No!" Lu Xi was very determined.

Fu Nanzhou nodded, "I believe you."

Hearing this, Gao Ning's pupils trembled, "Nanzhou, you... you think I'm lying?"

Fu Nanzhou didn't answer, but put his big hand on Lu Xi's shoulder and whispered in her ear: "The car is outside, go wait for me in the car first, okay?"

"it is good."

Lu Xi didn’t know what Fu Nanzhou would say to Gao Ning, but she chose to respect him and give him some space.

After Lu Xi left, Fu Nanzhou sat where Lu Xi had just sat. His eyes were frosted and he felt a chill. He said coldly, "Why do you want to meet Lu Xi alone? Don't use lame excuses like apology. You are not someone who is used to admitting your mistakes and apologizing to others!"

Gao Ning's heart ached. She looked at him with a sad smile on her face, "I want to know what charm she has that makes you like her.

"Nanzhou, do you know? I always thought that the house was given to me by you. I even went to the supermarket with Ji Rou to buy things and prepared things for you. But when I got there happily, I found out that the house was prepared by you for Lu Xi.

"And those 9999 red roses, you were so thoughtful. But during the time we were together, you never gave me roses, not even once! One Valentine's Day, I said you were stupid, so you bought me a bouquet of carnations from the flower shop. But did you know that carnations are usually given to one's mother?

"Nanzhou, I don't understand why you have become a different person? How did you suddenly learn to be romantic and gentle?

"You know what? The most gentle thing between you and me is that you put shoes on me when you see me barefoot, because I always deliberately go barefoot, and always say to you coquettishly, 'Fu Nanzhou, can't you see my bare feet? A boyfriend should put shoes on his girlfriend, and he should kneel on one knee.'

“You must still have muscle memory now, but this body memory was forcibly engraved on you by me.

"But look at yourself now. You send her flowers and houses. When she's angry, you try to cheer her up. You hold her face and kiss her on the road. You try hard to give Lu Xi a sense of security. This is how normal couples get along. But what about me? How do you treat me? Are you fair to me?"

By the end of his speech, Gao Ning was already in tears.

Fu Nanzhou curled up his slender fingers and pursed his thin lips into a straight line.
