The Bully President and the Serious Wife

Xu Lu woke up before 7 o'clock in the morning.

The sky is dark and it looks like it's going to rain.

The hospital bed was uncomfortable to sleep in. She had slept very late last night and woke up with a headache and a slightly swollen eye.

She had a lot of dreams, terrible dreams.

Every experience and encounter she had in the past 20 years appeared in her dreams.

Xu Lu realized that her most frightening and unforgettable memory was her childhood when she was just 8 years old, and she spent the whole day in fear.

Xu Lu struggled to sit on the bed. She turned around and found that Xie Zhenting and Grant were not in the room.

She was surprised, where did they go?

Just at this moment, two men came.

Xu Lu wanted to ask them where they were last night, but she noticed that their faces were all blue.

Coincidentally, their bruises were located in the same spot. Xie Zhenting's was on the left, and Grant's was on the right. Both were on their foreheads.

Both of them felt embarrassed when Xu Lu stared at them.

Xie Zhenting cleared his throat and said, "It's still early, you can go back to sleep."

Xu Lu raised her hand to stop him from speaking. She said, “What…you two last night?”

Xie Zhenting wiped his nose nervously and replied, "Oh, we went to the bathroom last night and the floor was very slippery. I think we bumped into each other."

"You two... just bumped into each other?" Xu Lu explored further.

Grant nodded nervously. “Yes, we bumped into each other.”

You both think I'm an idiot!

"I doubt it. I want to know if you two are gay." Xu Lu added.

Hearing her words, Xie Zhenting responded frantically: "Wow, don't guess, my sexual orientation is very upright, I am attracted to females, etc., to be more precise, only attracted to you. If you were a man, I would still choose you."

Grant had to admit that although this man was shameless, his flirting skills were perfect!

In this awkward and tense room, Grant walked over to his bed and lay down, saying loudly, "I want to sleep."

It's still early, so they can't be discharged yet. They need to wait for the doctor to come and check again.

Mrs. Xie arrived around 7: a.m. Xu Lu was surprised. She asked, "Why are you here so early?"

Mrs. Xie sighed and replied, "I couldn't sleep. You were all injured, and I was very worried. I woke up at 5 o'clock in the morning and made something for you to eat. When I get home, I will make you something delicious again."

Xu Lu felt a pang of anxiety. The word "home" was too far away from her.

Mrs. Xie and Xie Zhenting became a part of her life, and Xu Lu's life finally had a little warmth, just like the porridge she delivered early in the morning.

It doesn’t taste like the porridge you buy on the street, but the one my mother made by hand.

“We’re fine, just a few bruises.”

Mrs. Xie looked at Xu Lu's face and sighed: "That's also an injury. I've seen photos online. It's too dangerous."

Xie Zhenting didn't say anything. He looked through his wife's food. Frowning, he asked, "Mom, is there no meat?"

Mrs. Xie reached out and patted him. “What meat? I brought you food this morning, you should be grateful.”

Xu Lu took a sip of the lily and red date porridge. It was not too sweet and left a lingering aftertaste in her mouth. She smiled. “I like it.”

Mrs. Xie patted her head. “Eat more.”

Xie Zhenting opened his mouth and drank the tasteless porridge. Ah...his face hurt!

Mrs. Xie suddenly called out, "Hey, son, what's wrong with your face?"

Xie Zhenting was speechless...

He said angrily, "Mom, you didn't even look at me when you came in."

"Yes!" Mrs. Xie answered without hesitation. She didn't look at him.

After all, she had been watching this stupid boy for more than twenty years.

She looked at him every day, what else was there to see?

Xie Zhenting bit his mouth in anger. "Mom, we don't want this."

"What?"

Xu Lu pushed Mrs. Xie and looked at Grant.

She was surprised. “Oh, your face is hurt too. Did you two have a fight?”

Xie Zhenting gritted his teeth. "No..."

Xu Lu took a mouthful of porridge and said, "They slipped while going to the bathroom together last night."

"We slipped together in the bathroom? Do you think we're stupid?"

Xie Zhenting was embarrassed, and Grant turned his head to look out the window.

Xie Zhenting replied perfunctorily: "It's true."

Xie Zhenting asked seriously: "Did you two accidentally slide together while helping each other pull up your pants?"

"Haha!" Xu Lu couldn't help laughing.

Xie Zhenting gritted his teeth. "Mom!"

He did so much last night... 'Dear mother, please don't dig a hole for me now!'

Mrs. Xie opened her mouth in joy and walked over to sit with Xu Lu. "Why are you so angry? Is there something you're afraid others will find out?"

Xie Zhenting didn't know what to say. He winked at Xu Lu, wanting her to say something.

Xu Lu turned around and avoided his eyes.

Mrs. Grant and Xiu Si arrived about nine o'clock.

Xiu Si entered the room and greeted Mrs. Xie. “Brother, you must be hungry,” she said. “I’m sorry I’m late again. The traffic was terrible, it’s all my fault.”

Grant patted her head. “It’s okay.”

Mrs. Grant came in and ignored Mrs. Xie. She also didn't look at Xie Zhenting and Xu Lu.

She walked in front of Grant. "What happened to your face?"

Grant turned his head sideways, avoiding her gaze. "Nothing. Did I slip in the bathroom last night?"

Xiusi suddenly asked, "Is Brother Zhenting's face injured too?"

Xie Zhenting rolled his eyes and ignored her.

He suddenly felt sympathy for Grant...this family was really annoying.

Xu Lu picked up the thermos and went to the bathroom in the corridor to wash it.

Mrs. Xie did not stop her; she felt it was natural. "She is already part of the family."

After cleaning, she saw Xu Piaopiao hesitantly holding a lunch box at the door.

Xu Piaopiao...

The car had been tampered with, and she didn't believe that Xu Piaopiao really wanted to save her.

Anyone in the world can save her, but not Xu Piaopiao.

This is not just a grudge between her and the Xu family.

Xu Lu walked over with a sneer on her lips.

Xu Lu slammed her shoulder into her back. Xu Piaopiao staggered, and the thermos cup she was holding fell out of her hand and fell to the ground with a thud, spilling the soup inside.

Xu Lu smiled. "Ah? It's my dear aunt. I'm so sorry."

Xu Piaopiao's face turned pale. She lowered her head, panicking. "Xu Lu... I'm sorry..."

Xu Lu reached out, put her arm around Xu Piaopiao's shoulders, pressed her hands against the door frame, and squeezed hard. "Sorry?"

Xu Piaopiao's face turned pale with pain. "I heard that you two were injured, I... I wanted to come over to see you two, I..."
