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

Lu Xi was anxious, "You go back on your word!"

"Well, I went back on my word." Fu Nanzhou did not deny it at all, "Xixi, I still want to live a good life with you and don't want to get divorced. Now that Gao Ning is gone, he will never bother us again. Can we not get divorced?"

Lu Yao shook her head firmly, "No, without Gao Ning, there is still your mother and the rest of your family. Fu Nanzhou, I don't want to step into your circle. I'm afraid that a nobody like me will be eaten up."

She was in a hurry to refuse because she was afraid that she was not firm enough, that she would be soft-hearted, and that she would fall in love.

Fu Nanzhou's conditions were truly impeccable. If she had a weak will, she would have fallen into it. She was afraid that her love would quickly expand like popcorn and eventually become uncontrollable.

Fu Nanzhou held her face in his hands. A wave hit him and he held the girl tightly in his arms. When the wave subsided, he gave her a wet kiss on her lips.

"Xixi, I will protect you. Can you give me a chance?" Fu Nanzhou is good at business, but he is a little clumsy when it comes to coaxing girls.

Lu Xi was about to say no, but Fu Nanzhou kissed her again before she could open her mouth.

"OK?"

Lu Xi opened her mouth, but before she could utter the word "no", she was swallowed back into his mouth.

"OK?"

The third time, Lu Xi still didn't say it.

She finally realized that the unscrupulous businessman Fu Nanzhou was cheating and did not give her any chance to refuse.

"Xixi, if you don't agree, I will keep kissing you and seal all your words of refusal with a kiss."

Lu Xi: “…”

Fu Nanzhou is such a scoundrel, can she scold others?

Fu Nanzhou's eyes were too eager, too sincere, and contained a hint of pleading, so Lu Xi was unable to say no.

She opened her mouth and was about to speak, but Fu Nanzhou was about to kiss her again. She quickly covered her mouth and said anxiously, "I'm not going to say no."

Fu Nanzhou's eyes were filled with smiles. "So you agree?"

"No, I need to think about it carefully." Lu Xi first used a delaying tactic, but the fundamental reason was that she herself was also hesitant.

There was no reason for her and Fu Nanzhou to divorce. Fu Nanzhou had not cheated on her, there was no domestic violence, and their relationship had not broken down.

Do you think Fu Nanzhou committed some unforgivable mistake?

nor.

Even Fu Nanzhou was gentle, attentive, considerate and respectful to her. Except for the lies he told, everything else was impeccable.

Moreover, Lu Xi was moved, and it was precisely because of this that she was wavering.

Fu Nanzhou did not force her, and said softly: "Xixi, I'll give you some time to think about it. We can slow down and take it slowly, okay?"

"Okay." Lu Xi nodded in agreement.

The wind blew at the seaside in the evening and the tide began to recede slowly, so Lu Xi and the others returned to the shore.

"A-choo!" Fu Nanzhou sneezed and quickly took Lu Xi back to the tent.

Zhuang Yi took a quick look and suddenly revealed a sly smile: "The virus's incubation period has arrived. Oh, damn, my uncle just kissed Xixi!"

She hurried to find Lu Xi, but ended up slapping the crab that Jin Yu had just teased.

The crab was probably very angry because of the trouble it had just suffered, and it didn't see the person clearly, so it clamped Zhuang Yi's finger with its claws.

"Ah... Shit! It hurts so much, help!" Zhuang Yi jumped up and down in pain, trying to shake off the crab, but the more she did, the more it hurt. The crab seemed to be venting its anger and held on tightly.

Jin Yu was startled and quickly stood up to help her.

"Get lost! You're the one who teased it!" Zhuang Yi was about to cry in pain and ran to Jiang Yizhou, "Brother Jiang, get rid of it quickly."

Jiang Yizhou was amused and helpless, "Don't move yet."

Zhuang Yi obediently stopped moving. Jiang Yizhou pried open the crab's claws and then gently released it.

"Let me see if it's broken."

Zhuang Yi held her mouth tightly, feeling very aggrieved, "It was broken, look, it's bleeding, there's a deep cut."

"Come here and I'll disinfect you." Jiang Yizhou frowned. The little girl had delicate skin and was easily hurt.

"Okay." Zhuang Yi's eyes were filled with tears. She passed by Jin Yu and glared at him fiercely, "I'm not done with you! You jinx! It's all your fault!"

Jin Yu's face was gloomy. "I didn't pinch you, why are you angry with me?"

"I hate you!" Zhuang Yi cried and yelled, tears suddenly welling up in her eyes.

When Lu Xi came out of the tent, she saw Zhuang Yi crying and scolding Jin Yu, with her fingers being held by Jiang Yizhou, and small beads of blood oozing from them.

Lu Xi ran over quickly, "Yiyi, what's wrong with your hand?"

Zhuang Yi pouted in grievance, "That bastard Jin Yu was playing with a crab, and when the crab got angry, it pinched my hand."

Lu Xi couldn't help but get goose bumps. The thought of a crab pinching her hand was painful.

She already had some dissatisfaction with Jin Yu because of Gao Ning, and now she was even more displeased with him and glared at him secretly.

Originally, she just wanted to vent her anger, but she didn't expect to be caught by Jin Yu. The moment their eyes met, Lu Xi immediately looked away feeling a little guilty.

Jin Yu was also furious. It wasn't him who ordered the crabs to pinch people, so how could this be blamed on him? !

Jiang Yizhou also felt that Jin Yu was not to blame, so he took Zhuang Yi's hand and said, "Let me take care of it for you first."

After Zhuang Yi had dealt with it, Lu Xi quickly asked: "Yiyi, do you like Jin Yu?"

Zhuang Yi seemed to have heard a piece of gossip that shattered her worldview: "Are you kidding me? Do I look stupid?"

"Huh?" Lu Xi was a little confused.

"How could I possibly like Jin Yu?!"

"But weren't you always talking to him and looking angry?"

Zhuang Yi was immediately speechless. "Sister, I really hate him, okay? I hate stupidity. He is a tough guy who used to be a soldier, but he insisted on being a bootlicker and kneeling down to lick Gao Ning for so many years. Am I angry, okay? Of course, there is another reason."

She suddenly stopped talking.

Lu Xi asked: "What?"

"He's a decoy. When my boyfriend sees me getting close to him, he thinks I like him."

Lu Xi: “…”

Suddenly I felt that Jin Yu was quite pitiful. The woman he liked liked someone else, and there was someone who was trying to get close to him but treated him as a tool.

"Then who do you like?" Lu Xi glanced into the sea. In the vast ocean, only Pei Shaoqing and Ji Ran were left.

Ji Ran?

Not quite.

The person Zhuang Yi likes has someone else in his heart, could it be... Pei Shaoqing?

Before Lu Xi could ask, Zhuang Yi chuckled, "Don't ask me, I won't tell you! If you knew, my idol would know too, and then my secret love would fail, wouldn't it?"

Lu Xi didn't understand, "Why do we have to have a secret crush if it's so painful?"

"Because if I tell you, we won't even be able to be friends anymore, and I won't have any chance of having a crush on you anymore."

These few words touched the softest string in Lu Xi's heart.

She couldn't help but be surprised. How much did Zhuang Yi like that person? Even if she could only like him secretly and not reveal the slightest flaw, she would still persist?

But how painful would it be to look at the person you love but not be able to say it out loud?
