Zhuang Yi also heard the voice message and was so angry that she couldn't speak. "Is your sister sick? Is she a masochist or something?!

"I'm really impressed. You knew that the scumbag was colluding with his mother to let her take the blame, and they were also targeting you, but you still wanted to rescue them?

"Fuck, I'm so mad, I'm so mad, I'm going to die of breast cancer!"

Lu Xi was helpless and bitter. "My sister was pregnant last time, and my brother-in-law took very good care of her throughout the pregnancy. She must have remembered these things because of the pregnancy."

"Come on, tell me what's the best way. I want to learn something new!" Zhuang Yicai didn't believe that a hypocritical person like Che Nan would really be nice to Lu Yao.

Lu Xi said: "My sister wanted to eat durian in the middle of the night, so my brother-in-law ran for more than an hour to buy it.

"Another time, my sister wanted to eat frozen pears in the summer, but my brother-in-law couldn't buy any, so he bought the pears, froze them in a cold storage, and brought them back in an insulated box."

Zhuang Yi was speechless, "That's it?! So she just forgot the pain after the wound healed?!

“You always say your brother-in-law treats her well, but I really don’t feel that way.

"Last time your sister had a stomachache after working overtime, your brother-in-law just said, 'Thank you for your hard work, honey. I'm so heartbroken.' That was it, right?!"

Lu Xi nodded. "My brother-in-law is good at comforting people. Every time my sister is tired, my brother-in-law will say that my sister is so tired and feels so sorry for her. Then he will massage my sister's shoulders, and my sister will immediately forget how tired she was before."

Zhuang Yi sneered, "If you really care about it, help me. You just say you care about it, but you act like a boss."

Seeing that Lu Xi's lips were a little pale, Zhuang Yi quickly took out a candy and said, "Do you have low blood sugar? Eat it quickly."

Lu Xi took it, tore open the candy wrapper and stuffed it into Zhuang Yi's mouth, "Mango flavored gummy candy, you like it best."

Zhuang Yi rolled her eyes while chewing candy, "See? This is how we get along. I know you have low blood sugar, so you're eating candy all day long. You remember that I love mango candy, so you gave it to me first.

“All your brother-in-law’s love is in his mouth, while your sister’s brain is purely about love.

"Xixi, let me tell you, this is the first time I think your sister is a weirdo. Open your mouth, there's toffee."

Lu Xi sighed, "Actually, I can understand, because my sister lacked love since she was a child.

“When we were with my grandmother, my aunt was very powerful and bossed us around. Because my sister was older than me, my aunt often beat and scolded her.

"My sister used to be very cautious and never dared to relax. It was only after she met my brother-in-law that she started to smile. To her, my brother-in-law is the light of her life.

"I'm a little worried. If the light goes out, my sister might also..."

Zhuang Yi got goosebumps all over her body. "Don't explain. If I explain any more, your sister is also in love."

"Yeah, I admit it."

"What are you going to do?! Just let it go? Are you really going to figure it out?"

Lu Xi thought seriously.

"Lu Xi, let me tell you, although the case was not filed in the first place, Li Gang and the others could be released as long as they wrote a letter of apology, but my uncle intends to scare them, lock them up for a while, and then release them after giving them a good lesson. If you change your mind at the last minute, don't just say that I look down on you, but I, your uncle, will be annoyed with you!"

Lu Xi nodded, "I know."

**

Knowing is one thing, but being able to do it is another.

When Lu Xi returned to Longhu Villa with a heavy heart, Lu Yao sent another long text.

——Xixi, cousin Li Gang came just now. He bought a lot of fruits with my aunt and said he came to see you specially.

This matter was actually not a big deal. It was just that my mother-in-law was temporarily bewildered, so Li Gang also signed a letter of apology and was willing to let the matter go.

I know Zhuang Yi's uncle is capable. Please treat him to a meal for me and beg him to release your brother-in-law and mother-in-law. Tell me how much it will cost and I will pick up the tab.

I know you blame me for being soft-hearted, and I hate myself for that, but I don’t know if it’s because of the hormone fluctuations during pregnancy. I just feel aggrieved that your brother-in-law is not by my side.

Also, Guoguo needs someone to take care of her, and I can’t run back and forth between the two. My mother-in-law may be mean, but she’s still nice to Guoguo.

I've done a lot for you over the years, can you just let me be selfish for once?

Lu Xi was originally planning to change her shoes, but when she saw this, her heart suddenly choked and she walked out with her phone.

Fu Nanzhou came back to get an important document and was about to leave, but when he saw Lu Xi like this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and put down the document.

Hasn't her sister's problem been resolved? Isn't today's problem satisfying enough?

Lu Xi sat in the garden and called Lu Yao.

"Sister, have you ever thought about this? With this incident happening like this, my brother-in-law, your mother-in-law and I will definitely be at loggerheads.

"I'm fine. At worst, I won't go to your house. I already have a home anyway. But what about you? Will your mother-in-law treat you well? If you and your mother-in-law are at odds every day, will your brother-in-law still be nice to you?

Lu Yao retorted, "No, I'm pregnant now. Xixi, my mother-in-law has been urging me to have a second child to continue the family line. She will definitely treat me well."

"What if it's still a daughter? You..."

Lu Xi wanted to say something, but Lu Yao was already a little anxious, "Xi Xi, stop talking. If you don't agree, I'll find someone else."

Lu Xi was really angry, and she didn't even call her sister: "Who can you ask? Do you really have to ask them to come out?"

"Xixi, you don't understand." Lu Yao cried, "I used to struggle alone, but after having Anan, I gradually found someone to rely on. I've gotten used to having him around, and I'm afraid of being alone."

Lu Xi's breathing stagnated, as if someone was strangling her neck, and she was unable to speak.

Yes, in the past, it was her elder sister who supported everything by herself. Although her life was hard, when she encountered problems, there was always an elder sister who would tell her, "Don't be afraid, Xixi, I am here for you."

What should I do?

Lu Xi lowered his head and let out a long sigh, feeling so suffocated that he couldn't breathe.

A shadow suddenly covered her head, blocking out the afterglow of the setting sun.

Lu Xi raised her head and saw Fu Nanzhou with his hands in his pockets, looking down at her.

Fu Nanzhou is not a person who likes to laugh, and he always gives people a sense of oppression as a superior.

Lu Xi was inexplicably nervous and stood up suddenly: "Mr. Fu!"

Perhaps because the movement was too violent, Lu Xi lost his balance and fell backwards.

Fu Nanzhou stretched out his arm and put it around her waist, his thick eyebrows slightly frowned, "Did you say something bad about me? Are you so scared?"

Lu Xi lowered her head and said in a muffled voice: "No, I'm talking to my sister."

"What's wrong?" Fu Nanzhou still didn't take his hand back. The girl's waist was so thin and soft, and he was afraid that if he let go, she would bend over again.

Lu Xi shook her head, "My sister is pregnant, and she wants me to ask you to release my brother-in-law and her mother-in-law."

"Is my time so worthless?" Fu Nanzhou was displeased. It was not troublesome at all, but he never liked to get involved in these trivial matters. Helping her was already an exception, and he would not break the principle again.

Lu Xi lowered her voice, "I'm sorry, Mr. Fu."

She knew this would bother Mr. Fu.

Fu Nanzhou's breathing tightened, "Raise your head. If someone sees you like this, they will think I bullied you."

Lu Xi raised her head, revealing a pair of moist eyes.

Fu Nanzhou's heart skipped a beat.

The girl's eyes were as clear as a spring, and the grievance, entanglement, and apology in her eyes were complexly intertwined and covered by a thin layer of mist.

At that moment, Fu Nanzhou felt a pang of heartache, and subconsciously slowed down his tone, "Why are you crying? I didn't say I won't help you."

"So... did it cause you any trouble?"

"It's just one more trip. Director Gao is my friend's elder, and it would be inappropriate if I don't go there in person. I'll go there tomorrow morning." Fu Nanzhou said indifferently, but he still made an exception.

When Lu Xi heard this, her eyes lit up for a moment, "Mr. Fu, you are such a nice person."

When the girl looked at him with wet eyes and said this with a smile, Fu Nanzhou's heart was hit hard. He couldn't help but lower his head and gently covered her with his thin lips.
