After Divorce, My Ex-Husband Became My Fan

Because of one sentence, "She's back," Jian Ruo Xi's three-year marriage came to an end.

Fortunately, with the help of her sister-in-law, she quickly made a comeback and becam...

Chapter 188 Paying Back the Debt

"It seems the house is quite lively. We've come back at just the right time."

Lu Shen happened to hear what Lu Jin said when he entered the room.

She was kicked out? If he remembered correctly, his older brother had asked her to come several times on his grandmother's orders.

Someone said that she would go back to that house whenever she wanted.

Noticing his older brother's gaze sweeping over him, Lu Jin was so frightened that he immediately hid behind Ali.

"This is terrible, my older brother heard everything."

However, Lu Shen was in no mood to settle scores with his sister who always liked to run away from home.

He needs to help Ruoxi get the previous insurance money back first.

Seeing Jian Ruoxi standing unharmed in front of Lu Shen, Jian Mengyu felt a surge of jealousy.

It seems like he was faking a stomachache.

I never expected that my older sister would have such a talent for putting on an act.

It's all about attracting men.

"Young Master Lu, now that my sister is alright, can we leave?"

Being watched like a prisoner by these bodyguards in black was unbearable for her; she'd rather go back to that dilapidated urban village.

"Who said Ruoxi is alright?"

Lu Shenchao winked at Jian Ruoxi and whispered in her ear, "My big star, what were you doing just now? Are you still going to continue?"

"It's time to test your acting skills and ability to improvise on set."

Is he telling me to keep pretending?

That's great, this is her area of ​​expertise.

"The doctor just said that my condition is so serious that I need to be hospitalized. I came back this time to pack my things."

When she lies, she doesn't blush or skip a beat; she acts as if she's reciting lines.

Not long ago, she even imitated how the female lead in a TV series taught the villain a lesson, and this time she can use it.

Is it that serious? Does it require hospitalization? Who are you trying to fool?

Jian Mengyu looked Jian Ruoxi up and down. Her face was rosy and her voice was full of energy. How could she be considered to have been seriously injured and needed to be hospitalized?

She couldn't hold back and blurted out what was on her mind.

"Where are you injured? You don't look injured at all."

She suspected that Jian Ruoxi did it on purpose.

Before Jian Ruoxi could speak, Lu Shen stepped forward and blocked her path.

“The doctor said it himself, and I was there at the time. Why would I lie to you?”

Jian Ruoxi covered her mouth and chuckled from behind; Lu Shen's words were indeed correct.

One is the president of the Lu Group, and the other is a poor family living in an urban village.

Logically speaking, they shouldn't have anything that Young Master Lu would be interested in.

But who can blame her and Lu Shen for not playing by the rules?

"So, what does Young Master Lu intend to do?"

She realized that Lu Shen clearly wanted to stand up for Jian Ruoxi.

As for whether Jian Ruoxi is really sick, it all depends on Lu Shao's words. He has already said yes, so who dares to refute him?

Jian Mengyu got straight to the point.

Jian Ruoxi shook her head behind her, inwardly complaining.

"Having a younger sister who is too smart is not a good thing either."

"It's absolutely no fun at all."

Lu Shen pulled Jian Ruoxi to sit down at the dining table. His slender fingers tapped casually on the table, one tap after another, striking the hearts of the three members of the Jian family.

They couldn't help but wonder how Young Master Lu planned to punish them.

"You should tell us. After all, you're the one who bumped into them, and it's up to you to decide how much medical expenses they should pay."

It's better for Ruoxi to handle the insurance premium herself.

Lu Shen seemed to be implying that he was handing over all the initiative to Jian Ruoxi.

When Wang Juyue heard that they were going to ask for money, she was so frightened that she slid to the ground. "Um... Young Master Lu, we don't have any money at home."

The bodyguards pulled her up again. Lu Shao hadn't said that the Jian family could sit down.

Whether you have money or not is your business; telling me won't help.

What a joke! When they stormed into Ruoxi's house and started beating and scolding her, they didn't care about any of that.

Now you expect him to show leniency? On what grounds?

If Lu Shen were to pity them out of pity, he wouldn't have incurred so much resentment in the business world.

"Wouldn't it be more effective to ask Ruoxi for help?"

Even now, the Jian family's kindness is only directed towards him.

They didn't even offer Ruoxi a single apology.

Upon hearing this, Jian Feng looked at Ruoxi with expectant eyes, "Ruoxi, look, Dad just acted on impulse."

"It was just a family joke around, why make it so tense?"

"It's been a long time since we've seen each other, hasn't it?"

Lu Jin pretended to chat with Ali next to him, "Oh my, Ali, isn't it strange? This is the first time I've ever met a family like this."

"After so many years, he not only ignored his daughter, but when they finally met, he immediately tried to take over the house."

Ali understood Lu Jin's intention and cooperated perfectly, saying, "Yes, I just learned about such a strange thing myself."

The two men's words made Jian Feng lose face, his face alternating between red and white.

Jian Ruoxi silently gave Lu Jin and Ali a thumbs up from behind.

When it really mattered, my sisters really came through.

After Lu Jin and Ali finished mocking Jian Feng, Jian Ruoxi finally spoke up.

"Dad, I still have the surname Jian. I'm not going to bankrupt you. What are you afraid of?"

It's true what they say, fortunes change. Just now, those three were so arrogant towards me, and they even threatened to kick them all out.

Now you chicken out as soon as you hear about money?

"What I want is very simple: you just need to return the insurance money that my mother left me."

"I can let bygones be bygones for what you did today by breaking into my house."

Insurance money? They've already spent it all; where would they get the money?

If they had the means, would the three of them still be living in an urban village?

Jian Feng was caught in a dilemma. Ruoxi's words were no different from telling him to go bankrupt.

Left with no other choice, he had to bring up Lu Shen.

"But it was Young Master Lu who said we could keep this money."

Wow, my father-in-law isn't completely brainless after all; he even knows how to use me as a shield.

"You mean this? I think I did say that, it's true."

Since Young Master Lu is willing to admit it, things will be much easier.

Just as Jian Feng was about to continue, Lu Shen abruptly changed the subject, shattering all his hopes.

“I added a condition at the time: if you stay put, I can pretend I didn’t see your embezzlement of insurance.”

"But it seems like you're the ones who haven't kept your promise."

Jian Feng paused, realizing that Young Master Lu did indeed have additional conditions.

But they were blinded by what Han Mingyi said, and only remembered that Jian Ruoxi was now rich and they should move in with her. They had no idea about the warning Lu Shao had given them years ago.

"So, it's time for you to pay your debts."
