Xie Mao Mao was lying on a bamboo chair under the big tree to enjoy the cool air, with a cigarette in his mouth and a can of ice-cold beer in his hand.
In front of him, a handsome young man in a dark blue suit was talking.
At the age of twenty-seven or eighty-years-old, he is fair, fair, and has a handsome appearance.
He was respectful, observant of his words, and very careful in what he said.
Xie Maomao nodded from time to time and puffed out clouds of smoke from his mouth.
"Uncle Cat, don't worry, I will be good to Minghe and I will be good to her all my life."
"I will protect her with my life, guard her, and prevent her from getting hurt."
"Including my entire Lu family, we will follow the Xiao family's lead and never hesitate."
The handsome young man vowed and said: "I like Minghe, I love Minghe. As long as I can stay with her forever, I can do anything you ask me to do."
"What I care about has never been the Xiao family's vast wealth. It is not now, and it will never be in the future."
Xie Maomao flicked the cigarette butt away and sneered at the man's words: "You have figured it out, you are the son-in-law chosen by the Xiao family."
"A married woman should act like a married woman."
"Do you know what exists in name only?"
He stood up and took a sip of beer, then squinted his eyes and said, "The Xiao family has already discussed some matters with your father."
"Logically speaking, you are just a chess piece dedicated by the Lu family. I don't need to explain everything to you."
"But I watched Minghe grow up, and she is my precious daughter who I regard as my own."
"I must have a hand in her affairs and major events in her life."
After saying that, Xie Mao Mao raised three fingers and said in a stern tone: "Remember, the Xiao family and the Lu family have a three-part agreement. If you have the guts to break it, I will break your neck with my own hands and throw you out in pieces.
Feed the dog.”
"Your Lu family, of more than three hundred people, will all die because of you. No one will be left alive."
The expression of the handsome young man named Lu Xingjia suddenly changed and he exclaimed: "You, what did you agree with my father?"
Xie Mao Mao said indifferently: "First, your marriage to Ming He is only superficial. She will not be registered with you, let alone officially declare the ancestors of both parties."
"Second, after getting married, whether you live in the Xiao family or back to the Lu family, you are not allowed to step into her courtyard without Minghe's permission."
"Third, your marriage relationship must not be mentioned to outsiders. Even if they are relatives of your Lu family, you must not reveal even half of the truth."
"If you dare to violate one of these, hey..."
Speaking of this, Xie Mao Mao showed a cruel and murderous gloomy smile and said: "Do you need me to remind you again what will happen?"
Lu Xingjia collapsed and said, "No, I don't agree."
"That's not what father said, and Minghe would not be so cruel to me."
"You lied, you lied."
He staggered backwards, his face turned pale.
Xie Mao Mao pressed forward step by step: "No rush, you have a week to think about it."
"Either he obediently becomes the abandoned son of the family to cling to the Xiao family, or he dies without anyone noticing, and then comes to me after thinking about it."
"You don't want to be a puppet. There are a lot of people in Kyoto who want to take your place."
"Boy, being able to become Minghe's nominal husband is a blessing you have earned in eight lifetimes. Don't be so heartless that you will perish yourself."
"Click."
The bamboo chair exploded, debris filled the sky, and Xie Mao Mao left with murderous intent.
Lu Xingjia fell down and sat among the flowers, feeling as if he was in a dream.
"Why?"
"Why, Minghe?"
He is silly and laughs crazily.
...
In the study room in the front yard, a woman held a book in her hand and whispered to herself: "In order to help him solve the problem of cause and effect."
The sun is dazzling and the cicadas are chirping incessantly.
She leaned against the window and looked at the lotus leaves in the rockery pool tenderly.
