Father Fan didn't even bother to glance at her, but instead addressed the crowd, saying loudly, "Today, our Fan family is here to solemnly present betrothal gifts to our future daughter-in-law. My daughter-in-law is young and naive, and she has been deceived. Is that her fault? Does it mean that if someone kills someone, we should blame the dead person for running into the gun barrel?"
Everyone looked embarrassed and subconsciously avoided Fan's father's gaze.
Fan Yunyan's mouth was clenched into a fierce expression, but he looked at his father with starry eyes, feeling that his father's aura was imposing today.
This strange contrast is so endearing that it makes people smile involuntarily.
Lu Zhixi loosened her grip on her palm...
The Lu family members exchanged a knowing smile.
Mrs. Lu's sister apologized to Mrs. Lu, then grabbed her son and the daughter-in-law she no longer wanted, and immediately arranged for a divorce.
In this day and age, divorce has a huge impact. If a divorce occurs, it will also have a significant impact on the son's future career. Nowadays, the scrutiny of various backgrounds is becoming increasingly strict. But we can't worry about that now. If we don't get a divorce soon, Mrs. Lu's sister feels like she'll die of anger at any moment.
Her son, Ade, gave his wife a deep look: "Let's go..."
The woman was completely limp, while Lu Zhixi was perfectly fine. But if she got divorced, who could she marry?
She never wanted a divorce...
She knelt down without thinking and pleaded, "I didn't mean it, I was just momentarily blinded by love, Zhixi, please, please, you don't want your nephew and niece to be without a mother to take care of them, do you..."
Lu Zhixi almost ruined her life because of her. Last time, she was given a chance, but she was about to ruin herself again.
The Lu family members instinctively stepped in front of Lu Zhixi. She shook her head and slowly walked towards the woman she would never have the chance to call her "sister-in-law" again: "I think they'll only be ashamed of having a mother like you. You know what? You look really ugly right now..."
Lu Zhixi moved slightly closer, her voice barely audible to the two of them: "Do you know why your parents and brothers have been demanding money even more lately? Because they've been disobedient, and they're going to break their legs!"
The woman's eyes widened in shock, hardly believing what she was hearing. In her eyes, Lu Zhixi had always been a pure and innocent girl whom everyone protected, gentle and clear, seemingly deserving of all the most beautiful words to describe her.
But now...
What did she hear?
Lu Zhixi smiled gently, just as beautiful as before.
The Lu family are not the type to repay kindness with evil; they always seek revenge...
So now, as her cousin-in-law pleads for leniency, she looks at her with a smile, thinking that things will probably be "better" for her in the future...
She looked up, walked through the crowd, and met Fan Yunyan's gaze. Because Fan Yunyan was so dark-skinned, his blush wasn't very noticeable. He just subconsciously scratched his head, stared at his future wife, and even made a cheering gesture.
This made Lu Zhixi smile involuntarily...
That's great...
Fanfu rolled his eyes, finding it unbearable to look at his good-for-nothing son.
The Lu family was very satisfied and became even more enthusiastic towards Fan Yunyan. The two sides sat down to discuss the matter. Because of the Fan family's attitude, the Lu family prepared a considerable dowry. The two sides naturally had a very pleasant conversation, as the families were well-matched and evenly matched.
Meanwhile, Lu Zhixi's two older brothers and younger brother covered their eyes, looking like they couldn't bear to watch, and warned Fan Yunyan in a low voice: "My sister (younger sister) isn't married to you yet, you're not allowed to keep staring..."
They, like light bulbs, were irritated by the sticky, gooey substance and started hissing and crackling...
