With a "pa" sound, Cao Xiuqin's slap landed squarely on the palm of Lu Xi's hand. Because she had just slapped him, she had fought against Cao Xiuqin, and their palms collided.

"You dare to hit me?! Lu Xi, I'm your aunt, aren't you afraid of hurting the world if you hit me?!" Cao Xiuqin was incredulous.

Lu Xi was so angry that his chest heaved and his palms felt numb.

When she was a child, she was always slapped by her aunt, and it had become a conditioned reflex. She used to subconsciously cover her face to dodge. Later, when she was in college and lived in the same dormitory with Zhuang Yi, Zhuang Yi taught her to face up to whoever hit her and fight back, helping her overcome this obstacle.

Lu Xi took a deep breath, her face flushed with anger, "Anyway, I've told you the truth, you can believe it or not. If you want your son to be cheated on in the future, then don't believe it, but I will never lend you a penny!"

"You..." Cao Xiuqin pointed at Lu Xi, too angry to speak.

This little brat has always been stubborn, and now she's even more arrogant and dares to hit her aunt.

At this time, the security guard ran over with a serious face, "Excuse me, ma'am, it's time for our group to get off work. You have disturbed our normal order. Please leave immediately, otherwise we will call the police."

When Cao Xiuqin heard that they were going to call the police, she quickly said, "I'll leave right away."

Before leaving, Cao Xiuqin was angry but didn't dare to get angry, so she pointed her index finger at Lu Xi and said, "You have no conscience. Your parents were right not to want you. You are such a heartless thing. I wouldn't want you either."

Lu Xi clenched her fist and said to Cao Xiuqin: "My uncle is right not to want you!"

"You..." Cao Xiuqin was so angry that her eyes turned red. She was about to slap him again, but the security guard stepped forward to stop her. She didn't dare to say anything else and could only leave in shame.

Lu Xi adjusted her mood and said, "Thank you, security guard."

The security guard smiled and said, "If you want to thank someone, thank Mr. Fu."

Lu Xi was slightly startled. When she turned around, she saw Fu Nanzhou walking towards her with long legs and big strides.

The evening sun fell on him, casting a soft light on him, making him look so noble and so inviolable.

Lu Xi felt a little embarrassed, and she didn't know if he had heard the argument with her aunt just now.

She lowered her head slightly.

Fu Nanzhou walked up to her, looked at the girl with her head lowered, and asked distressedly, "What happened just now?"

He actually knew that his Mrs. Fu had already clocked out from get off work, so he came down specially to take her home.

I just saw her arguing with Cao Xiuqin and didn't want to embarrass her, so I didn't come over, but asked the security guard to drive Cao Xiuqin away.

Lu Xi suddenly hugged his waist.

Fu Nanzhou was slightly startled. This was at the company gate, and as the top leader of the group, it was not appropriate for him to do this.

but……

Seeing this, Ding Yu and Fang Min's eyes widened instantly and they all looked up at the sky.

Two senior executives who had seen Fu Nanzhou passed by gasped in disbelief, their eyes widened and they kept looking into Fu Nanzhou's arms.

But when he met Fu Nanzhou's cold gaze, he immediately looked away.

"Who was that just now? He actually hugged our President Fu. He is so brave!"

"Another girl throwing herself at him, right? There are many girls throwing themselves at a man like Mr. Fu, but I've never seen one so courageous."

"You, you only saw someone hugging Mr. Fu, but didn't you see Mr. Fu hugging that little girl? It must not be one of those who came over to throw themselves into his arms."

"Ah, I remember now. I heard that Mr. Fu has a little niece who seems to be in her twenties."

"So it's my niece. I was wondering why Mr. Fu, who is so self-disciplined, would let a girl hug him in public?"

The two of them whispered quietly, and it was impossible to hear them.

However, there were many people coming and going around, and Fu Nanzhou was not used to being intimate with girls in front of the company gate, so he just asked gently: "Xixi, can we go back to the car first? It's too sunny here, and girls will get tanned."

Lu Xi nodded and then let go of Fu Nanzhou.

She calmed down only after returning to the car. She felt a little embarrassed when she recalled how she had hugged Mr. Fu in public.

However, she still felt secretly happy and wanted everyone to know that this was her Mr. Fu, her legitimate husband.

Fu Nanzhou drove to a milk tea shop, bought a cup of cocoa milk tea and handed it to Lu Xi: "Drink it."

"Hot?" Lu Xi was stunned. It was the hot summer.

Fu Nanzhou nodded, "You have a cold uterus, so drink less cold drinks. In summer, drink something hot. If you sweat a little, you will actually feel cooler."

Lu Xi lowered her eyes, "Mr. Fu, my heart is warm now."

"Because of hot drinks?" Fu Nanzhou raised his eyebrows.

"No, because of Mr. Fu." Lu Xi glanced at him quickly and said softly, "You remember my story and keep it in your heart. I can feel that Mr. Fu cares about me, and I am very happy."

Fu Nanzhou's smile widened. "Mrs. Fu, you are my wife. As a husband, isn't it my duty to care about you?"

Lu Xi tightened her fingers.

Because she's my wife?

Would the same happen to other people?

When they got married, Fu Nanzhou said that he got married so quickly because he wanted to deal with the pressure from his family to get married.

A man as gentle and cultured as him would probably treat anyone he marries well, because this is his upbringing.

It should... have nothing to do with liking, right?

Lu Xi suddenly fell silent. Fu Nanzhou noticed it, but he just thought she was thinking about the conflict with Cao Xiuqin just now, so he asked softly: "Can you tell me what happened just now?"

Lu Xi didn't say anything.

Fu Nanzhou respected her and said, "If you don't want to say it, don't force it."

"No, I don't know how to tell you better. My aunt came to me today to borrow money. She still wants to buy a house for my cousin.

"I have some money in my hand, which was saved by my sister. Last time Li Qian called me, I didn't return it to my sister because I was afraid that it would be taken away by my sister's mother-in-law. I didn't expect that my sister's mother-in-law would tell my aunt about it, so my aunt came to find me."

Fu Nanzhou nodded: "You don't want to borrow it?"

Lu Xi shook her head. "My aunt was not that kind to me. At that time, I was not even ten years old, and my aunt pinched my neck and scolded me, saying that I was a jinx, and asked me to return her man to her, and she wanted to strangle me to death."

"She blames you for your uncle's death?"

Lu Xi said “hmm” and the memory drifted away.

That day was the sixth day of the first lunar month.

The older generation in rural areas has this custom that they cannot wash clothes or take a bath from the first to the fifth day of the New Year. They must wait until the sixth day when water is released.

On the sixth day of the Chinese New Year, my aunt was washing her hair and found that the shampoo was gone. She said that she and her sister washed their hair all day long and used up all the shampoo.

At that time, my sister had short hair to save water and shampoo, but she was still slapped by my aunt.

My sister endured it and didn't fight back, and braided two pretty pigtails for her. My aunt got angry and grabbed her hair and pulled the pigtails apart, causing her to cry in pain.

Her sister felt sorry for her and cut it off. Unexpectedly, right after she finished cutting it, she heard her aunt crying loudly in the yard. The aunt next door said that her uncle was gone.

When her aunt saw her, her eyes were red with anger. She picked up a rolling pin and smashed it on her, crying heartbreakingly, "Why isn't it you who died? Go to hell! Go to hell soon! Get your uncle back!"
