Zhuang Yi put the phone on the coffee table and said, "My uncle found a doctor and sent Sister Gao Ni to a mental hospital."

Lu Xi's head suddenly buzzed, and she was a little unbelievable, "Is this true?"

Zhuang Yibai said to her, "Of course it's true, why would I lie to you?!"

Lu Xi blinked and didn't speak for several seconds, with one sentence repeating in her mind: Fu Nanzhou sent Gao Ning to a mental hospital!

She had never been to that place, but when she was tutoring a primary school student in mathematics, she heard the hostess of the house say that mental hospitals are scary and that good people who go in will become insane.

Lu Xi felt that Gao Ning was either sick or bad, so she asked, "Is Gao Ning really mentally ill?"

Zhuang Yi shrugged, "It's hard to say. Normally, if you haven't been stimulated or depressed, then you won't have any symptoms.

"But the problem is, didn't Gao Ning have that incident? It was a big blow, so it's normal for him to have mental problems."

"But even if that's the case, it wouldn't be necessary to send him to that mental hospital, right?"

Lu Xi heard the hidden meaning, "So you mean Fu Nanzhou did it on purpose?!"

"Yes, I'm letting you vent your anger. I've told you before that he is a big devil, and his methods are ruthless. It's not a derogatory term, because the environment he lives in requires ruthlessness."

Zhuang Yi didn't say anything more. Although she didn't know, she always heard her mother nagging.

Anyway, every time her uncle beat her, she would complain to her own mother, but her mother would never scold her uncle. She would always say, "Don't make your uncle angry. Your uncle has worked so hard all the way. It's not easy."

When she lived with her uncle before, she always saw her uncle working in the early morning.

Also, when my uncle was studying abroad, she and her mother went traveling abroad, and my uncle only took time to have a meal with them before going back to work. It was really not easy.

As for my grandparents, they actually don’t care much about my uncle.

"Yiyi, what kind of person is Fu Nanzhou's mother?" Lu Xi couldn't help but ask about Fu Nanzhou's mother.

Zhuang Yi was stunned for a moment, then hesitated and said, "How should I put it? My mother told me that my grandmother was a super beauty when she was young, but..."

"But what?" Lu Xi asked.

“My uncle had a bad relationship with my grandmother. My grandmother liked to gamble, and because of this, she divorced my grandfather when she was young.

"My uncle doesn't like to mention my grandmother. Even when he comes to my house for dinner, if my mother brings it up at the dinner table, my uncle will get angry. He even had an argument with my mother about buying a gift for my grandmother on Mother's Day, and then he left before finishing the meal."

Lu Xi was silent.

She didn't know Fu Nanzhou's family, and Fu Nanzhou had never told her about it. She seemed to understand why he said his mother had passed away.

But that's no reason for him to lie.

"Okay, okay, let's not think about it anymore. Let's go to bed."

Lu Xi washed her face and brushed her teeth, took a shower, changed into pajamas and fell on the bed.

Zhuang Yi chuckled and said, "Promise me that you will forgive everyone and everything before going to bed."

Lu Xi was stunned, and said angrily: "Then I won't sleep. I can't forgive you."

"Hahaha, don't be like this." Zhuang Yi lay on Lu Xi's chest.

Lu Xi pushed Zhuang Yi and her cheeks turned a little red.

"Oh, are you shy? Why? You weren't shy when I touched you before? Ah, could it be that my uncle touched you? Ah, my face turned yellow and I felt a little excited, what should I do?"

Lu Xi was originally in a very depressed mood, but after being teased by her best friend, she felt much more cheerful instantly.

"Zhuang Yi, please watch less pornographic things. Be careful not to scare your crush away."

Mentioning this, Zhuang Yi couldn't help but sigh bitterly, "Ah, secret love is so unpleasant. Do you know what secret love is like?"

"like what?"

"It's like the Wi-Fi signal next door. It's full, but you don't know the password. You can see it, but you can't use it."

"Be more proactive." Lu Xi has a relatively passive personality, but can be considered brave when it comes to relationships.

Although she took the initiative to tell Fu Nanzhou that she liked him but did not get a response, she still felt that she should let the other person know that she liked him.

Zhuang Yi curled her lips, "How can I take the initiative? How can I get you if I tell you? What temperature of water do I need?"

"Pfft..." Lu Xi laughed out of anger, "Who told you to say something so frivolous? I asked you to express your feelings seriously."

"You can't be serious at all." Zhuang Yi threw himself on the bed, determined to throw the jar away.

If it were that simple, would she still have to go through so much trouble of secretly loving someone?

It is impossible for the person she likes to have someone else in his heart.

**

The next day, Lu Xi went to work as usual.

When I came out of Zhuang Yi's house, Fu Nanzhou's car was waiting at the door of the apartment.

Zhuang Yi took one look and immediately said tactfully, "Xixi, let my uncle take you there. I'm leaving first."

Fu Nanzhou grabbed the small bag on Zhuang Yi's back.

"What are you doing!" Zhuang Yi glared at him.

Fu Nanzhou handed her a box of hot dumplings.

Zhuang Yi's eyes lit up immediately, "Which Yang's Xiaolongbao do I love the most?!"

"Ah."

"Uncle, I love you so much!" Zhuang Yi was so excited that she wanted to kiss him, but Fu Nanzhou pushed her away with disdain, "You are a grown-up girl, you should learn to love yourself."

Zhuang Yi rolled her eyes, "I know."

Zhuang Yi drove away, and Fu Nanzhou looked at Lu Xi, "Let's eat in the car."

After a night, Lu Xi calmed down a little and nodded.

There was a bouquet of purple flowers in the car. Lu Xi didn’t recognize them, but they were wrapped very beautifully, so they must be a gift for her.

Fu Nanzhou explained, "Pei Shaoqing said that this flower is called the Wood Sword Hibiscus, and its flower language is 'Don't pout', which means don't be angry."

Lu Xi muttered, "I'm not pouting."

"Xixi, I lied about my mom. When you told me you wanted to meet your in-laws, I was against it.

“My mother is not an easy person to get along with, and her ideal daughter-in-law is not like you, but this is not the most important thing, because she can’t control me.

"The important thing is that she is addicted to gambling. If she knows I'm married, she will definitely use you to ask me for money, so I don't want you to see her.

“That was my thought then, and it’s the same now.”

Lu Xi said in a muffled voice: "Then you should have told me at that time."

Fu Nanzhou smiled bitterly, "Xixi, I find it hard to say either."

Lu Xi understood it all. Just like when others asked her about her parents, she found it difficult to speak. She had no way of saying that her parents were divorced, each had their own families and children, and neither of them wanted her and her sister.

"Then your mother is coming back, isn't she? She will definitely know about your relationship with me, right?"

Fu Nanzhou opened the box of dumplings and handed the chopsticks to Lu Xi before answering, "My sister will watch over her when she comes back. She won't have the chance to gamble, and we won't give her money. But I still don't want you to see her. As for my dad..."

Fu Nanzhou paused for a moment before continuing, "He won't like you."

He took it upon himself to reject the arranged marriage and married Lu Xi. Everyone in his family was very angry and definitely would not treat Lu Xi well.

It was his own decision to marry Lu Xi, and she had no reason to endure the harassment from his family.
