My Sexy CEO Wife-Chapter 202 - 200 The Debt Owed

Gao Fei had not expected Xu Lingxiu's reaction to be so fierce; it seemed that she still cared a great deal about that Zhu Feng.

"As long as you answer my questions honestly, I will not make things difficult for Zhu Feng," Gao Fei said.

"You mean it!" Xu Lingxiu glared as she asked.

Gao Fei nodded, "Absolutely!"

Xu Lingxiu stared into Gao Fei's eyes for a few seconds, then nodded, "Fine, ask away."

"Did you instigate Zhu Feng to take revenge on Lu Hao?"

"...It was me, it was all my idea, it has nothing to do with Zhu Feng..."

"So you hold such a grudge against Lu Hao?"

"Yes! I hate him! I wish I could kill him right now!" Xu Lingxiu said through clenched teeth: "Lu Hao is not human! He's a beast! He ruined my life! I hate him, I absolutely hate him!!!"

"Let me ask you, if you had another chance, would you still take revenge on Lu Hao?" Gao Fei asked.

"I would!" Xu Lingxiu said without hesitation.

"I can see that your heart is filled with hatred," Gao Fei sighed, "Living every day in hatred, making yourself totally unhappy, is it worth it?"

"What are you trying to say with that?" Xu Lingxiu snorted, "Lu Hao destroyed me, shouldn't I hate him?"

"You should," Gao Fei nodded, "If it were me, I would hate him too! However, I wouldn't let hatred blind me, nor would I live in pain every day." After saying this, Gao Fei paused, "Regarding what happened to you, I truly sympathize, life hasn't been fair to you."

"If you really sympathize with me, just let me go, along with Zhu Feng," Xu Lingxiu said.

Gao Fei shook his head, "I can't let you go just yet."

"You..."

"Just calm down, I'll come to see you in a couple of days." After saying this, Gao Fei turned and left.

...

"How is it?" Lu Pingguan stepped forward quickly.

"It was her," Gao Fei nodded, "She has admitted it."

"I knew it was her," Lu Pingguan frowned.

"What do you plan to do with her?" Gao Fei asked.

Lu Pingguan shook his head, "I don't know, logically speaking, since she tried to harm my grandson, I certainly can't forgive her, but... in this matter, Lu Hao is also at fault, if he hadn't led her on and then abandoned her, she wouldn't have resorted to such a cruel method to take her revenge on Lu Hao."

"This is indeed a difficult situation to deal with," Gao Fei pondered, "Let Lu Hao handle it, the trouble was caused by him, so he should resolve it."

"Him?" Lu Pingguan was taken aback, "Can he resolve it?"

"Try and see, if he can't handle it, then we'll think of something else." Gao Fei paused before continuing, "The best solution would be... for Lu Hao to apologize in person, earn Xu Lingxiu's forgiveness, allow Xu Lingxiu to let go of her hatred, and then Lu Hao should give Xu Lingxiu some compensation..."

"Mr. Gao's idea is to downplay the whole situation, not pursue the matter of Xu Lingxiu trying to harm Lu Hao?"

"You want to pursue it? Don't forget, it was your grandson who wronged her; her retaliation against your grandson is completely justified! If it were me, I would do the same."

"..."

"Of course, this is just a suggestion, if you disagree, pretend I never said anything."

"I agree... we'll do as Mr. Gao said," Lu Pingguan hurriedly stated.

...

"What? You want me to apologize to Xu Lingxiu?!" Lu Hao's eyes bulged as he said loudly, "No way! I refuse! I would rather die than do that!"

"Damn it."

Mr. Gao scolded, "You've brought disaster upon someone, shouldn't you apologize to them?"

"What disaster? Don't make it sound so awful. I didn't force her; she was with me willingly. Moreover, I didn't mistreat her. I not only bought her lots of clothes and jewelry, but I also gave her a sum of money when we broke up. All things considered, she didn't lose out."

"Bullshit!"

"I'm not bullshitting! I'm telling the truth."

"Damn it, you still don't repent even now, I'll beat you to death." Lu Pingguan raised his cane and started to beat Lu Hao.

Lu Hao, covering his head, tried to dodge, "Let's talk this out, no need to get violent, ouch... it hurts, stop hitting me, stop hitting me..."

"Bang!" 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Lu Pingguan banged his cane on the floor heavily and glared, "I'm asking you one more time, will you go apologize or not! If you dare say 'no', I'll break your legs!"

"...I... will go." Lu Hao finally caved, his head sagging, "I'll go, isn't that enough?" Up to this point, he still didn't think he was wrong. What's the big deal about playing with a woman? Why such a huge fuss?

"Listen to me carefully. When you meet Xu Lingxiu, you must speak politely and apologize with the sincerest attitude. If you can't obtain her forgiveness... then get out of the Lu Family and never think about coming back for the rest of your life."

Lu Hao was startled, "Isn't that a bit too serious?"

"Bang!"

Lu Pingguan hit the floor once more with his cane, "You almost lost your life because of this. Isn't that serious enough?"

"I..."

"Hurry up and apologize! No matter what conditions she puts forward, you must agree."

Under Lu Pingguan's compulsion, Lu Hao went to meet Xu Lingxiu.

Half an hour later, Lu Hao came out with slightly red eyes, looking as though he'd cried.

"How did it go? Did Xu Lingxiu forgive you?" Lu Pingguan asked with a heavy voice.

"It was passable..."

"Either it's yes or no, what do you mean by 'passable'?"

"...When Xu Lingxiu saw me, she went crazy, cursing at me like mad, hitting me like crazy, and in the end, she even bit me... I didn't hit back, didn't talk back, swallowed my pride, just like a grandson..."

"And then?"

"I apologized to Xu Lingxiu very sincerely. In the end... I even managed to squeeze out a few tears... Maybe my sincerity moved her, and then she put forward a condition..."

"What condition?"

"She wants me to marry her."

"Pfft..." Mr. Gao spurted out all the tea he had just drunk, his expression one of utter shock, "What did you say? Marry her?"

Lu Hao nodded earnestly, "That's what she said."

"Did you agree to her?" Mr. Gao asked with an odd look on his face.

Lu Hao shook his head and then nodded again.

"What does that mean?" Mr. Gao didn't understand.

"I didn't agree, but I didn't refuse either."

"Be clearer."

"I made it clear to Xu Lingxiu. I'm the eldest young master of the Lu Family, with a noble status, and I'm going to inherit the Lu family business. So... my marriage is very important, and I need to marry into another prestigious family..."

"You're insane! To actually tell her that!" Mr. Gao's beard bristled with anger.
