The Bully President and the Serious Wife

Xu Lu sighed. She couldn't imagine how many times this old lady had been deceived and bullied.

If she hadn’t run into her today, who knows how much she would have lost this time?

Xu Lu sneered. "So, you mean, after you stole her necklace and were caught red-handed, she'd become unfriendly if she didn't forgive you? She might have a good temper, but I don't. Anyone who messes with me will die. Didn't you want to report it just now? Go ahead, I'll wait."

Xu Lu took out her cell phone and played a recording.

After going through so much, Xu Lu learned to collect all possible evidence to prove her opponent's wrongdoing.

“It’s an expensive piece of jewelry. If you’re convicted, how many years will you get?”

Mrs. Wang was so frightened that she quickly added, “I’m sorry, Mrs. Xie. I was a jerk. I stole from you and targeted you because you had a good temper. I was wrong. I was so wrong. Please… please don’t press charges. I promise it won’t happen again. If I see you on the street again, I’ll go another way so you don’t have to see my face.”

"Should we hand her over to the police? Or...? You choose." Xu Lu told Mrs. Xie.

Mrs. Xie said coldly: “I don’t care what happened before, but from now on, we are no longer friends. I no longer respect you. Since you accuse me of bullying you just because I come from a wealthy family, then I will continue to do so.”

Mrs. Wang and the gang thanked them and ran away with their tails tucked between their legs.

Xu Lu was not at all surprised by Mrs. Xie's choice.

After all, she was one of the best women Xu Lu had ever met.

Mrs. Xie didn't expect Xu Lu to come to help her.

From the beginning, she hated Xu Lu. When she whispered, "Thank you just now, but... I treated you so badly, why did you help me?"

Xu Lu smiled. "Do you think that's a bad thing? Well, at least you didn't try to kill me. There are too many smart people in this world. The world needs more pure and innocent people like you. What if you get smarter after being bullied too much? How will I win the next time I argue with you?"

Mrs. Xie pouted, "Why does everything that comes out of your mouth sound so bad?"

Xu Lu replied with a huge grin on his face: “What the hell are you talking about? You were bullied and he couldn’t even stand up for his mother. He’s such a good son.”

Mrs. Xie retorted. "I never told him. He's prone to violence. Whenever he tries to have his way with something, all rationality goes out the window. If I bring it up with him, everyone else will think my family is unreasonable and tyrannical."

Xu Lu couldn't help laughing.

"Auntie, being unreasonable and domineering is immoral. It also depends on the situation. Some people will take advantage of your kindness. You can't be kind to people who don't deserve sympathy. Don't let anyone take advantage of you next time, okay?" Xu Lu said.

Like a scolded child, Mrs. Xie lowered her head in shame. She nodded in agreement. “I know… just like Mrs. Wang. Right?”

Xu Lu smiled and replied: "Yes, me too..."

Mrs. Xie raised her head and looked at Xu Lu's smiling face.

She felt completely out of place and said, "You...you...are not...bad...I may have been a little prejudiced against you in the past..."

Xu Lu smiled proudly and replied, "Look at you, you're so naive sometimes. I just did you a small favor and your feelings towards me have completely changed. You know, I'm actually a terrible person. Maybe I just did it to make you like me so that I can marry into your family?"

"I...I thought...you never thought of...marrying my son,"

Xu Lu raised her eyebrows in surprise. “How could I refuse? Many girls would do anything to marry your son.”

Mrs. Xie looked frustrated and said, “I know…but you…”

Xiao Liu rushed to Xu Lu, pointing at his watch and reminding her that it was time to go to the airport.

Xu Lu stood up and said to Mrs. Xie. "You are not wrong to be prejudiced against me, Auntie. I think exactly the same as you. You don't need to like me, and I don't want to be liked by you. I helped you this time to express my gratitude for the delicious ribs I ate at your house. That's all. Goodbye."

Mrs. Xie yelled at Xu Lu. “Hey. You…”

Xu Lu paused for a moment. She turned around to face Mrs. Xie and said, “Auntie, please be like this anyway. If a little naivety makes you happy, I will say you are doing well.”

Mrs. Xie was shocked by her parting words.

She stood there stunned, watching Xu Lu slowly leave. Mrs. Xie realized that she didn't understand that woman at all.

...

Xu Lu didn't go far.

"Xu Lu..." a familiar voice called out.

Hearing the voice, she stopped for a moment. She was about to continue walking, but the road was blocked by the people in front.

Xu Lu saw someone blocking her way. "Mr. Grant and Miss Grant, what do you two want to do?"

Grant Huse excitedly shook her brother's shoulder and said, "Oh my God, it's you! I was just telling my brother I saw you from a distance."

With a cold expression on her face, she replied, “Sorry, I’m in a hurry to get to the airport.”

Even more tense was that Grant finally spoke. "Wait a minute, I have something to tell you."

He turned to his sister and said, "Xiusi, could you please give us some privacy and wait for me over there?"

Grant Huse's eyes widened, startled by the obvious nervousness. "Oh... okay..."

She reluctantly stepped aside and looked at her brother curiously.

"I won't bother you for too long. I just want to speak my mind."

“I never thought I’d run into you here today. Ironic, huh? I’ve been trying so hard to find you, but I never thought all I had to do was walk out my door…” Grant said.

Xu Lu remained silent, not knowing what else to say to him.

Grant pulled a chocolate bar from his pocket. “I remember you loved this brand of chocolate when it snowed in the winter. I saw it earlier and thought of you. So I bought it.”

Xu Lu thought of the painful memories she had suppressed. In a hollow, cold voice, she replied, “I don’t want it, and I don’t need it anymore.”

Xu Lu was so lost in her thoughts that she didn't notice someone pulling her shoulders from her side.

"I remember you said you were very anxious. Why are you still standing here?" said another familiar voice.

Xu Lu was startled, she looked up and saw Mrs. Xie, she was anxious to get her out.

Grant reluctantly put the chocolate bar away and greeted her, "Auntie..."

Mrs. Xie paused for a moment, looked up in surprise and said, “Oh my God, it’s you, my friend. I’m sorry, I didn’t notice you just now. As you can see, we are in a hurry. Zhenting will have lunch with us. Do you want to join us?”

Grant glanced at Xiusi. Filled with mixed emotions, he simply replied, "No, thank you... I have to go shopping with my sister."

"Oh... well, we don't want to interrupt your time together. Let's go," she said, waving goodbye to Xiusi.

Grant was in a heavy mood, and he could only say a few words. “Okay, then…be careful, auntie…”

Seeing Mrs. Xie and Xu Lu leave, Xiu Si hugged her brother's shoulders and asked, "Hey, do you know Xu Lu?"

“Yes, we met at your Bar Mitzvah,” Grant replied.

"But you just handed her the chocolate bar. What were you two talking about?" Xiusi asked curiously.

"Nothing. Well, let's go," Grant said, trying to ignore her question.
