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

Lu Xi paused and said softly, "Was he sent back abroad?"

Fu Nanzhou said in a calm tone, "On the Fu family's private island, it's surrounded by the sea. She can't come back without a helicopter, and she won't act like a demon again without the internet."

Lu Xi was a little surprised, "Isn't that just like being put in solitary confinement?"

Fu Nanzhou nodded, "Yes. I told her that this time she will be trapped for a year."

"What about her food and drink?" Having watched too many desert island survival movies, Lu Xi's mind was filled with the image of Tanya stabbing fish with a harpoon. It was simply outrageous.

Fu Nanzhou answered her seriously, "We will send her food and daily necessities regularly, so she won't starve to death."

Lu Xi still found it a little unbelievable.

Now is the Internet age. She finds it difficult to go even a day without touching her phone or watching videos, let alone a year.

"Can you be cruel?"

Fu Nanzhou lowered his eyes. It was impossible to say that there was no disturbance at all.

After all, she was his biological mother, and Tanya was a gentle mother in the years before he entered the third grade of elementary school.

But since she became addicted to gambling, Tanya has become a different person, cold and selfish. In the quarrels day after day and year after year, Tanya has worn out all the tolerance of her family members.

And the time when she pushed Fu Nanzhou out to pay off his gambling debts, Fu Nanzhou was completely heartbroken and completely despaired of the role of a mother.

Fu Nanzhou has very complicated feelings towards Tanya, with hatred and resentment, but he can never forget Tanya's kindness in bringing him into this world.

But he didn't want Lu Xi to feel bad, so he didn't say it explicitly, but just said indifferently: "It should have been like this a long time ago. It was because I was soft-hearted that I gave her the opportunity to hurt you."

At this point, he suddenly paused, turned to Lu Xi, and said seriously: "I don't know how you will look at me if I do this. Do you think I am cold-blooded and heartless, and can be so cruel to my own biological mother, or do you think I am doing it for you to see, just pretending, but I really want to do this.

"Lu Xi, I am sure that for at least a year, my mother will no longer be an obstacle between you and me, and will no longer cause you any trouble."

Lu Xi understood what Fu Nanzhou wanted to say and asked, "What about your grandfather?"

“Fu Nanzhou, I can see that you have a very good relationship with your grandfather, and you can’t go against his wishes.

"And I said, what really made me back off was not your grandfather, but the huge gap between us. You are the young master of a wealthy family, the president of the Fu family, and the heir of the Fu family. In the future, the huge Fu family will belong to you.

"But I am just an ordinary person. In the eyes of others, I may be Cinderella. They will envy me and be jealous of me, but will Cinderella be happy if she marries a prince?

“After Cinderella married the prince, they were sweet and happy at first, but they were not from the same world after all, and a huge distance gradually developed between them. The prince drove Cinderella out of the palace.

"Later, Cinderella got lost in the forest and cried until she went blind. A few years later, when the prince went to look for her because he was lonely, Cinderella had died of hunger and cold.

"Everyone only sees the happy ending of Cinderella marrying the prince, but no one has ever thought that after the grand wedding, Cinderella would have such a tragic ending."

Fu Nanzhou felt depressed. "You are not Cinderella, and I am not as delicate as the prince. Xixi, you can't look down on me just because I come from a wealthy family. I really like you."

Lu Xi's pupils trembled, and she couldn't believe her ears.

Fu Nanzhou actually said he liked her? !

Fu Nanzhou put down the kitchen knife, thought for a moment, took Lu Xi's hand and said, "Come with me."

Lu Xi didn't understand, but she still let Fu Nanzhou lead her, and followed him out of the villa and to the garage.

He opened the trunk, which was filled with red roses, with colorful lights on top and a white velvet box in the middle.

He took the box off it and opened it to reveal a huge diamond ring.

Lu Xi's heartbeat paused and began to beat wildly.

Fu Nanzhou licked his dry lips and smiled shyly, "I had already memorized the words to confess my love, but now I'm very nervous and have forgotten them, so I'll just say something casually.

"I know a lot has happened recently, and you have begun to doubt and withdraw from our marriage. I also have problems. I clearly like you but I have never let you know my feelings.

"I want to say, I like you and want to spend the rest of my life with you, can you please not get a divorce?"

After Fu Nanzhou finished speaking, he frowned again, always feeling that something was wrong. In the end, he couldn't help but look at his mobile phone, which had the steps he recorded.

Seeing "kneel on one knee", Fu Nanzhou knelt down quickly.

Lu Xi: “…”

She was stunned for a moment, and said awkwardly: "Fu Nanzhou, usually you kneel on one knee, there is no need to do this."

Fu Nanzhou's face suddenly turned red, and he quickly stood up. Then he realized that he had to kneel down on one knee, so he knelt down on one knee again.

He held up the ring, a little nervous, "Wife, can we not get a divorce?"

Lu Xi looked at the handsome and invincible man in front of her with mixed feelings. If she didn't know that Fu Nanzhou was her immediate superior, perhaps she would have felt better. But seeing such an unattainable big shot kneeling in front of her, she always felt that this was not in line with his identity.

"Fu Nanzhou, can you please get up first? I feel bad when you do this."

"I won't, unless you promise me."

Lu Xi sighed, "Isn't this moral kidnapping? You have to let me think about it."

Fu Nanzhou suddenly realized what was going on, then he stood up and brushed the dust off his knees.

He looked at Lu Xi with burning eyes. The obvious expectation made Lu Xi feel uneasy. She always felt that she would be a bad person if she didn't agree.

But she is a worldly person and always thinks about some practical problems. The gap between them is unbridgeable.

Just as she was hesitating, Fu Nanzhou suddenly held her hand and put the ring on her ring finger.

Lu Xi subconsciously wanted to curl up her fingers, but she was too late.

"Fu..."

Fu Nanzhou smiled, "Xixi, it's too late. Once you put it on, don't ever think about taking it off."

Lu Xi frowned, and said in a slightly anxious tone: "You are cheating."

"Well, I'm a rogue."

Lu Xi: “…”

"I'm afraid that if I act like a gentleman again, my wife will run away. Xixi, once I give you a ring, I won't take it back. When I was on a business trip last time, I remembered that your finger was empty and I hadn't prepared a ring for you yet, so I bought this on the spur of the moment.

"Because of some incidents that happened later, I never got the chance to give you this ring. I'm giving it to you today, and you can wear it as a decoration.

"Because this is not our wedding ring, I will have someone design our own wedding rings, and then replace this one, okay?"

Lu Xi thought, such a big diamond, the diameter of which was almost as thick as her finger, and she didn’t know how much it would cost. She would be crazy to wear it as a decorative ring.

"Fu Nanzhou, don't be like this. I told you, I haven't thought about it yet. You still remember what I said to you before, right?"

Fu Nanzhou chuckled, "I remember, but now Gao Ning is gone, my mother is gone too, so these obstacles are gone."

“It’s all temporary.”

"Yes, but if our relationship is unbreakable, even if they come back, it won't affect me. Gao Ning is just a stranger to me now, and I have already repaid Aunt Liang for saving my life. As for Tanya, except for the blood relationship, I cannot sever it. I have completely severed our mother-son relationship from the bottom of my heart.

"Xixi, I hope you can give me a chance. My identity and background may discourage you, but you have to admit that having me as your backer will make your life easier."
