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

Lu Xi once again looked around the living room, which was so spacious that she could hear an echo. The antique decoration style looked simple and quaint, but all the furniture was made of old huanghuali wood. She didn't dare to estimate its exact value.

For a moment, the unbridgeable gap made her heart feel suffocated, and she even felt a dull pain from being unable to breathe.

The more she got to know Fu Nanzhou and the closer she got to his family, the more she felt that they had no future.

She seemed to know what the old man of the Fu family asked her to do tonight. This was the respect given to her by the Fu family, and without a single word, she could automatically withdraw from Fu Nanzhou's world.

At this moment, she believed what Fu Nanzhou said. The people of the Fu family were well-educated and would not be as sarcastic and mean as Tanya, who would either mock or curse. The Fu family chose a method without gunpowder smoke but with precise strikes, which was more deadly.

Lu Xi didn't want to stay for even a minute, but if she left at this time, she would be the only one who would be embarrassed, which would mean she had given up.

So she can't leave.

But at this time, Tanya looked at her again and said, "Lu Xi, are you surprised? Why is a table so expensive?"

"Tanya!"

"mom!"

"grandmother!"

Fu Nanzhou, Fu Beibei and Zhuang Yi spoke at the same time.

Fu Zongze also shouted coldly, "As a mother-in-law, you should act like a mother-in-law. Is this reasonable?"

Tanya was a little unhappy, "Dad, I'm doing this for the good of the Fu family. As the granddaughter-in-law of our Fu family, if I don't know anything, won't it be a disgrace to our Fu family in the future?!

“For example, if Nanzhou hadn’t spent money to remove the trending searches today, who knows how it would have turned out.

"You've seen that both sisters are restless. Fortunately, Nanzhou's identity has not been made public yet, and few people know that the heir of the Fu family is married. Otherwise, how big of an impact would it have on the Fu family?!"

As soon as Tanya finished speaking, Fu Nanzhou immediately stood up, his dark eyes flashing with a frightening chill, "No matter how much impact it has on the Fu family in the future, I will support it. If just because of a rumor or a hot search about my wife, the nearly one hundred years of Fu family's foundation is destroyed, it can only mean that the Fu family is not strong enough and not complicated enough! Let's not eat this meal today! Xixi, let's go!"

Seeing Fu Nanzhou defending Lu Xi so much, Tan Ya's eyes suddenly turned red with pain. She pointed at Lu Xi and said, "Just side with her! Do you know that she slapped your mother? And my hair, did you see it? This bald spot was also pulled out by her!"

Tanya lifted her hair while complaining, choking with sobs, "How dare your daughter-in-law hit her own mother-in-law? Who knows what outrageous things she will do in the future? And she hit your mother, and as a son, are you so indifferent?!"

Fu Nanzhou remained unmoved, "I don't believe Xixi would hit you! Even if she did, I believe you must have touched her bottom line!"

Tanya's eyes widened in disbelief. Her voice became sharper because she raised the pitch. "You are my son, but you don't trust your biological mother who gave birth to you and raised you. Instead, you trust an outsider? How long have you known her?!"

"She is my wife!" Fu Nanzhou said in a loud voice.

Lu Xi was a little surprised. She didn't expect Fu Nanzhou to believe her without hesitation. She thought she would choose to believe Tan Ya, after all, she was his biological mother.

Tanya burst into tears, "Okay, okay, you believe her but not your mother, what's the point of me still being alive?!"

Fu Nanzhou was unmoved. Fu Beibei frowned, "Mom, was it really Lu Xi who hit you?"

"I swear to God!" Tanya raised two fingers solemnly.

It was at this time that Ding Yu called. Fu Nanzhou's dark eyes flashed and he pressed the speakerphone when answering the call.

"Mr. Fu, I've checked it out. Today, your mother went to Lu Yao's ward and threw the divorce agreement in your wife's face. She also said some unpleasant things. Because she mentioned Cao Xiuqin's son and called him a loser, Cao Xiuqin was so angry that she slapped your mother and the two of them had a conflict."

Ding Yu's voice was loud and clear, and it reached everyone's ears through the loudspeaker without missing a word, and also clearly restored the truth of the matter.

Tanya, who had just sworn to the sky in grievance and anger, was exposed for her lies in public, which was tantamount to being publicly executed!

Tanya's face was pale and blue, as if she had been slapped in the face twice. She couldn't utter a word. She immediately lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Fu Nanzhou and Fu Zongze. She didn't have the face to look at anyone at all.

Fu Nanzhou clenched his fists tightly, his brows furrowed, and he squeezed out a mocking remark from between his clenched teeth, "You are so disgusting for framing Lu Xi and confusing right and wrong! Apologize!"

"You want me to apologize to her?!" Tanya immediately raised her head, eyes full of disbelief.

Fu Nanzhou smiled grimly, "Is it wronged you?! A three-year-old child knows that he should apologize for doing something wrong, but you don't?! Is this your upbringing?! You repeatedly say that my wife is ill-mannered, but what about you?! You are full of superiority. I really want to know, as someone who has been kicked out of the Fu family and is often forced to hide from gambling debts, where does your sense of superiority come from?! What qualifications do you have to look down on my wife?!"

The series of questions were sharp and harsh, making Tanya feel embarrassed, angry and ashamed. She just gritted her teeth and glared at Fu Nanzhou arrogantly. One look at the look on her face showed that she would never apologize.

At this moment, Fu Zongze tapped the coffee table with his fingers, "Tanya, apologize!"

"Dad?!" Tanya screamed, "You helped her too?!"

"Apologize!" Fu Zongze was intimidating without even getting angry. These two simple words, without any anger in them, could make people feel a sense of oppression as if a mountain was pressing down on their heads.

Tanya shuddered violently. Even though she was unwilling in her heart, she could only grit her teeth and say, "I'm sorry!"

Lu Xi said nothing. She didn't care about Tanya's apology, let alone such an insincere apology.

Fu Nanzhou warned, "I'll say it again, don't provoke Lu Xi again. If you do it again, I will cut off all your financial resources and let you experience what human suffering is like!"

After saying this, he took Lu Xi's hand and was about to leave.

But Lu Xi stood still and pulled his hand out.

Lu Xi looked at Tan Ya with burning eyes, "You are Fu Nanzhou's mother, I should respect you, but I always respect others as much as I respect them. If the other party does not respect me, then if I am polite to her, it means I am despising myself.

"First, I know that it is Huanghuali. All the furniture of the Fu family is made of Huanghuali. It was originally low-key and luxurious, and it could show the heritage of the Fu family. But it became a means for you to show off and embarrass me. You lowered its value.

"Secondly, although I didn't slap you in the face, if my aunt didn't do it, I would have done it, because you were too much!

“Third, anyone with a bit of common sense and a decent outlook on life knows that my sister is a victim. Even if you don’t sympathize with her, you shouldn’t distort the facts like those keyboard warriors and go to a patient’s ward to show off.

"Ms. Tanya, you have said more than once that I am uneducated and that I will damage the reputation of the Fu family, but it is you who really damages the reputation of the Fu family. At least I did not use the name of the Fu family to do something that would bring shame to the Fu family.

"To be honest, not long ago, I doubted the upbringing and family tradition of the Fu family because of your personal behavior. But after meeting Zhuang Yi's parents and Fu Nanzhou's grandfather, I realized that I was arbitrary. It's not that the Fu family is uneducated, but that there is a black sheep like you."
