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

At the same time, Shen Mo and his son Shen Congrong arrived in the garden.

When Shen Congrong saw the photo sent by Fu Nanzhou, his face became extremely gloomy. He didn't expect that it would be He's mother.

"Dad, what do you think?" Shen Mo did not rush to express his opinion, but asked his father in a deep voice what he thought.

The father's attitude is crucial.

Shen Congrong sat on a chair in the pavilion, listening to the crickets chirping in the bushes. He was silent for a moment before saying, "He Chunye had not had any problems in the past 26 years, until Jiuer returned."

"Yeah." Shen Mo nodded, sat next to Shen Congrong, and leaned forward slightly, "Dad, do you think we should tell Jiuer about You Ran's life experience?"

Shen Congrong hesitated for a moment and shook his head. "Jiu'er's personality is not like yours. She can't keep secrets. If you tell her, she will probably tell it when she conflicts with Youran. Before you find out that Youran is the mastermind, she is still your sister. You have to take her feelings into consideration."

Shen Mo's brows darkened, "We are concerned about You Ran, but she is not concerned about Jiu Er."

"Shen Mo, your mother and I have taught you since you were young that you should have a clear conscience. When Youran was put into your mother's arms, our fate with her was already sealed. She is a member of our Shen family. Jiuer is your sister, and so is Youran."

Shen Mo disagreed, his tone became stern, "Only if she didn't hurt Jiuer! Dad, let me tell you first, if I can prove that Youran was targeting Jiuer, and the murderer in the haunted house was originally going for Jiuer, I will lock Youran up immediately! I hope you won't stop me then, otherwise I won't be polite!"

Shen Congrong's pupils trembled, and he subconsciously frowned, "Shen Mo, why are you suddenly so hostile to You Ran?"

"It's not that I have hostility towards her, but her recent behavior has hinted at her hostility towards Jiuer. It is my responsibility as a brother to protect my sister!" Shen Mo did not allow for any argument. He knew that his father was kind and generous, but this would not do.

Shen Congrong just felt a lump in his chest. His son rarely spoke to him in such an attitude.

But when he thought about it carefully, Shen Mo's original intention was to protect his daughter, and there was nothing wrong with that, so the resentment in his chest dissipated.

"Okay, I understand. Don't worry. By the way, how did you get to know Meng Xue? Is she reliable?"

Shen Mo pursed his lips and did not answer his father's previous question. He just said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, it's reliable."

On Sunday evening, Lu Xi went to her sister's place.

Lu Yao was cooking in the kitchen. Seeing her sister carrying a bunch of ice cream and drinks, she couldn't help but ask, "Why isn't your brother-in-law with you?"

Lu Xi curled her lips, opened the freezer and put the ice cream in, then said: "He's busy recently, and so am I. The decoration is almost finished, so we meet every time."

Lu Yao was surprised. "You two don't look like a couple at all. How can you separate like this right after getting married? Doesn't your brother-in-law want to?"

Lu Xi was no longer a little girl, and could understand the meaning of her sister's words. Her pretty face blushed slightly, and she whispered, "Sister, why are you so gossipy now? What are you talking about?"

Lu Yao laughed, "You're still embarrassed. I've been through this before, so there's nothing I can't say. It's actually quite good. A healthy relationship between husband and wife is only three times a week. Indulgence is not good."

Lu Xi: “…”

Then she and Fu Nanzhou must be unhealthy, as that man can have sex three times in one night.

"Sister, where is Brother-in-law Liang?"

Lu Yao frowned, "Don't yell."

"What's wrong? Did you two have a fight?"

Lu Yao paused, handed the freshly torn roast duck leg to Lu Xi, and sighed, "What's the point of quarreling? It's just an ordinary relationship between colleagues."

"Don't come here. How can a simple colleague come to your house? By the way, didn't you say that you and Director Liang would take Guoguo to see the musical fountain on Valentine's Day? What happened next? Is there a story?" Lu Xi bit the roasted duck leg. She liked the crispy part the most.

I don’t usually like to eat duck skin, but crispy roast duck is an exception.

Lu Yao lowered her eyes, "No."

"You are lying!"

Lu Yao sighed, "I knew I couldn't hide it from you. He gave me a gold bracelet, but I didn't want it and I told him clearly."

Lu Xi paused, "You mean Director Liang confessed his love to you, but you rejected him?"

"Well, we're not a good match."

Lu Xi couldn't help but frown, "Sister, the court will open next Monday. Is this the reason you are worried?"

"No. I don't want to look for another one. I'm fine with Guoguo now. She's a first-time marriage, so how nice is it to find a young girl? I don't want to delay her."

Lu Xi really disagreed with her sister's idea, but when she thought about herself, she also backed off because of inferiority complex when she was with Fu Nanzhou before.

"Sister, I think you should change your mindset. Director Liang seems really reliable."

"Not considering it." Lu Yao was firm. "Liang Feng's conditions are indeed very good, but it is precisely because of his good conditions that I cannot delay him. I still have this self-awareness."

Lu Xi looked suspicious. Although her sister was prone to low self-esteem, she was fine before. She shouldn't have become so determined all of a sudden. It was as if she had suffered some kind of blow. This was too strange.

"Sister, is this Director Liang's home..."

Before Lu Xi could finish her words, the doorbell rang.

Lu Yao deliberately sent her away, "Aunt took Guoguo to play Naughty Boy, and forgot to bring the key when she went downstairs. Please open the door."

Seeing that her sister had oil on her hands, Lu Xi could only swallow what she was about to say and went to open the door first.

But he didn't expect that when he opened the door, the person he saw was not Cao Xiuqin and Guoguo, but Tao Rui.

Seeing her, Lu Xi's face suddenly turned cold, "What are you doing here?"

Tao Rui smiled awkwardly, "Xixi is here too, I'm looking for Yaoyao."

As she said this, she was about to go into the house, but Lu Xi stopped her.

Lu Xi hadn't seen Tao Rui for a while. Compared to before, Tao Rui now looked much more haggard and miserable.

Taihua Group went bankrupt just two days ago. He Taihua was heavily in debt. Tao Rui must have had a hard time too. With her selfish personality, she can share wealth but absolutely cannot share adversity.

Tao Rui was pulling the suitcase, looking like she was going to seek refuge with her sister, which proved that Lu Xi's guess was almost right.

Tao Rui was blocked and suddenly felt unhappy, "Lu Xi, get out of the way!"

"No!" Lu Xi frowned and warned coldly, "Tao Rui, I tell you, leave here immediately, or I will be rude."

Tao Rui was so angry that she laughed, "I'm looking for my own daughter, why are you stopping me? What qualifications do you have to stop me?! Lu Xi, do you think you can do whatever you want just because you are a rich lady? I'm telling you, I'm looking for my own daughter, no one can stop me!"

At the end, she raised her voice, "Lu Yao, Lu Yao, come here quickly! Lu Xi won't let mom in!"

Lu Yao didn't want to pay attention to her at first, but she still walked over and asked, "What do you want from me?"

Tao Rui smiled flatteringly, "Mom and He Taihua are divorced, and your sister and I have no place to live, so we'll stay here for two nights."

Lu Yao lowered her eyes, "So you think of this place as a shelter, right?"

Tao Rui's face turned pale and her tone immediately became sharp, "Lu Yao, do you listen to what you are saying? I'm your mother, isn't it right for me to stay with you for a few days?"

"That's your own business." Lu Yao was extremely disappointed. "From the moment you slapped my daughter in the face at the Shen family, our mother-daughter relationship has ended."

Tao Rui was immediately furious, "Lu Yao! I gave birth to you and raised you, and you treat me like this?! I'm telling you, I still recognize you because I'm giving you face, don't be so shameless! The Che family's case will go to court next Monday. If I do something to make you lose the case, your hard days will be over!"

Lu Xi subconsciously looked at Lu Yao, who was also surprised, "How did you know?"

It wasn't an open trial, and the court date was postponed. How could Tao Rui know about this? And why did she choose to come at this time?
