Xu Ningyan dared not think any further, and anger and sorrow welled up in her heart.
Her previous anger was mostly directed at the Xu family and Xu Zhenzhu. Although she knew that Lu Kai was not a good person, she never knew that Lu Kai could be so heartless and insane.
I don't expect to repay your life-saving grace with great gratitude, but with the Lu family's power, it would be great if they could just arrange a job for me, give me money or gifts, and take good care of me in the future.
Instead, he insisted on using the excuse of repaying a life-saving debt with his body, firstly to add a halo of loyalty to himself, and secondly to use the two women as a shield for his adultery, while also ruining the two women's chance to become mothers.
I've lived my whole life in lies, completely exploited!
How utterly shameless!
What utter arrogance and contempt for others!
Perhaps in Lu Kai's and his family's eyes, whether it was Xu Zhenzhu or Xu Siya from the previous life, even if they saved Lu Kai's life, they would not receive respect or gratitude.
They probably thought that the fact that the Lu family had chosen them to be used as a shield was a way to give Xu Zhenzhu and Xu Siya face.
Of course, she felt sorry for Xu Siya in her previous life, but now Xu Zhenzhu had selfishly seized this opportunity for her own sake. The Lu family, a den of wolves, was just right for Xu Zhenzhu. They should be allowed to fight amongst themselves and bite each other like dogs!
With that in mind, Xu Ningyan restored the small hole to its original state, tidied up the courtyard, and then left.
On the way to the department store, he was still thinking about how to subtly reveal this news to Xu Zhenzhu.
After all, with Xu Zhenzhu's ability to stir up trouble, it's not easy for her to accomplish something, but she has absolutely no problem stirring things up.
Before seeing Xu Zhenzhu, she regarded Lu Kai as her possession, fearing that others would covet him. She was determined to become the wife of the richest man in the provincial capital after Lu Kai became successful.
If they knew Lu Kai already had someone else outside the marriage, things would get really interesting.
Not only is Lu Kai in a terrible predicament, but his father will probably be affected as well.
Because she had something on her mind, Xu Ningyan couldn't concentrate. She only noticed a bicycle rushing towards her after crossing an intersection.
Thanks to her agility, she jumped to the side at the last second, avoiding the bicycle.
The bicycle couldn't stop and continued straight forward, only coming to a stop after crashing into a tree.
The cyclist managed to jump off the bike at the crucial moment, and although he twisted his ankle, he at least didn't fall over like the cyclist.
Xu Ningyan almost stepped on a stone when she jumped, but she managed to steady herself by grabbing the wall.
Once she regained her balance, she looked up and saw that the cyclist wasn't helping her up, but instead was angrily walking towards her.
The person riding the bicycle was none other than Xu Zhenzhu, whom she had just been thinking about.
Xu Zhenzhu has been having a really tough time lately.
She was too ashamed to go out, dared not go to work, and dared not go to her husband's family home at the machinery factory.
She stayed at home every day, but even so, her great achievements had already been publicized throughout the entire alley, with neighbors from machinery factories and supply and marketing cooperatives.
Even buying groceries or taking out the trash gets you pointed at and criticized.
Several times, people threw bricks into her yard and left dog feces at her door.
She felt wronged! All she did was say a few words of gossip. Besides, those words weren't necessarily wrong, were they? Don't be fooled by how protective Gu Zhiyuan is; who knows if he's just feeling guilty? Is he afraid others will find out his girlfriend was violated? Is that why he's covering it up like this?
It's all just bad luck on her part. Besides, she was tricked and scammed, okay?
Little did she know that Luo Jinman, who usually fawned over her at the supply and marketing cooperative, actually had ulterior motives. The suggestions he gave her were all for other purposes.
She's a victim too, okay? Besides, who was she doing this for? Wasn't it for the Lu family, for Lu Kai?
In the end, when something went wrong, it was all her fault?
After she made her self-criticism, Lu Kai's attitude clearly cooled down.
He stopped comforting her and his voice wasn't as gentle as before.
She always has a stern face and speaks in an impatient tone. If you ask her a few more questions, she'll annoy you.
In the past, whenever she cried, Lu Kai would feel extremely sorry for her and would hold her in his arms for a long time to comfort her. He would also buy her many things to make her happy.
Now, whenever she cries, Lu Kai yells at her, saying how dare she cry? Then he slams the door and leaves, saying that seeing her with a long face every day makes him feel unlucky and he's in a bad mood, so he wants to go back to the factory to live.
She tried her best to adjust her mindset. Even after suffering those grievances, she tried to put on a smile when Lu Kai came back, just in case he disliked her.
But Lu Kai complained that she clung to him every day, saying that no wife was like her, having a job but not going to work and just staying at home idly.
These are all bad habits that come from having too much free time!
They also said that she was unkempt at home and had nothing to do, just like the old lady at the alley entrance.
They even said that when the two of them go out now, they don't look like a couple at all.
Tell Xu Zhenzhu to go to work soon, instead of staying at home. If she stays at home any longer, she'll become like a country bumpkin.
Xu Zhenzhu was also afraid; the only person she could hold onto now was Lu Kai.
If Lu Kai doesn't like her anymore, what will she do in the future?
Therefore, even though he was unwilling and felt ashamed, he still went back to work at the supply and marketing cooperative.
She used to be arrogant and looked down on everyone, offending almost all her colleagues.
When she returned, she could only take a menial job. Everyone sympathized with her, but they all laughed at her, both to her face and behind her back.
Moreover, they assigned her the most tiring work, making her not only clean but also carry out the cafeteria's errands. Every day, she, a frail woman, had to carry all the vegetables and rice that the cafeteria needed.
She protested, but the personnel department said that no job is inherently superior or inferior; all jobs are for serving the people! What, does she think the menial work position is inferior to other positions? Or does she have a problem with the leader's arrangement?
If you have any objections, go home!
How could Xu Zhenzhu dare to have any objections? Nor would she dare to say that the odd jobs were lowly!
She had no choice but to swallow her anger and go to work every day wrapped up tightly.
After working for a few days, Lu Kai seemed to calm down a bit and was willing to go home, which eased the tension between the two.
Xu Zhenzhu was only happy for two days when Lu Kai was transferred to another position for plagiarism.
For Xu Zhenzhu, it was as if the sky had fallen.
You should know that in his previous life, Lu Kaike had always worked in the engineering design department and later became the director of the engineering department.
Later, he became the director of a machinery factory. With the reform and opening up, state-owned enterprises were in a slump and needed to be reformed, resulting in a large number of old employees being laid off.
It was Lu Kai who stepped forward, privately bought the machinery factory, and retained most of the original employees, thus solving the problem of unemployment for the government.
It is for this reason that the government has consistently provided strong support to the machinery factory and Lu Kai.
With the support and policies of the government, the machinery factory became more and more prosperous, and it was also thanks to the machinery factory that Lu Kai embarked on the road to becoming the richest man in the provincial capital.
