Chapter 193: Robbery
Chapter 193: Robbery
While the middle-aged woman was shouting, the two short guys behind her handed two boxes of milk and two large bags of snack gift packs to Xu Youyou.
"Xu Youyou, our family has two shops and a factory. When you marry into our family, you will be able to live the life of a lady! Don't be ungrateful!" said the middle-aged woman with a little pride.
She seemed to really think that her family's conditions were particularly good.
Xu Youyou looked at the two bodyguards who didn't dare to approach the middle-aged woman and said helplessly, "Why are you so stubborn? You can't touch old women. Throw the others out first."
The two bodyguards immediately took action, but the two short and stout men were quite agile, and the Wang family brought a bunch of relatives to help, so the bodyguards could only grab a few relatives and throw them out.
The middle-aged woman screamed anxiously, "No one wants a wife with such a bad temper like you! Sooner or later, you won't be able to get married! If I hadn't seen that you were an orphan and didn't need a betrothal gift, I wouldn't have looked down on you! You are not allowed to hire bodyguards in the future. You must stay at home and carry on the incense of our Wang family!"
Xu Youyou was too lazy to pay attention to her and just waited for the bodyguards to clear out. However, she didn't expect the middle-aged woman to rush up and grab her. If Lu Jingyao and Xu Fang hadn't protected her in time, she would have been grabbed by her claws.
No sooner said than done, a person suddenly rushed out from the room behind Xu Youyou.
"No one wants your son! Our Youyou is so outstanding that everyone is vying to make her their daughter-in-law! You are reluctant to give the betrothal gift, but I am willing to give it. Hundreds of millions, billions, or even tens of billions or even trillions of dollars. As long as she likes my son, I am willing to give it!" Lu's mother said loudly.
The middle-aged woman sneered and said, "You keep talking about hundreds of billions. Do you think you're the richest man's mother? You're so shameless!"
When Xu Youyou heard this, her expression suddenly became strange.
Lu Jingyao, who was standing by, suddenly spoke up at this moment: "Madam, please stop your unreasonable behavior. I have called the police."
The middle-aged woman glared and said, "So what if we call the police? They're both unmarried. It's a blessing for her that my son likes her! I'm sure they'll even help with matchmaking if the police come!"
The middle-aged woman dared to say this simply because she didn't see Lu Jingyao calling the police at all. She thought he was trying to defraud her and wanted to follow the old method from her hometown. After snatching the person back, she would lock the young couple in a room, and then everything would fall into place naturally.
The middle-aged woman continued to talk to herself: "I heard that you still send money to the orphanage every month. Let me tell you, once you enter our Wang family, you can't move money out as much as you want. I don't agree with this!"
Xu Youyou knew that it was difficult to persuade someone who kept talking to herself, so she simply kept silent and waited to see what other nonsense she could come up with.
Unexpectedly, Mother Lu acted as if her martial arts skills had finally found a place to be used. She rolled up her sleeves and said proudly, "A good daughter-in-law should support her parents! Not only should she support herself, but she should also bring her parents-in-law along! Director He, from now on, if there's anything going on at the orphanage, you don't have to tell Youyou. Just tell me and I'll take care of it! I'll pay what's due and I'll do the work when it's necessary! I want to show those stingy people what truly good parents-in-law are!"
Xu Youyou couldn't help laughing. She turned to look at Lu Jingyao and said in a low voice, "Your mother is really kind-hearted. She's willing to do this to save my face!"
Lu Jingyao didn't know what to say for a moment. Should he say that his mother was serious and not just acting?
Wang Xiaohu, Xu Youyou's so-called elementary school classmate, couldn't hide the shock on his face after seeing Lu Jingyao's face, and suddenly pulled the middle-aged woman's sleeve.
"Mom, it seems...it seems like he really is the richest man in the country..." Wang Xiaohu said stutteringly.
It was not until he spoke that Xu Youyou barely recognized this elementary school classmate.
When she was in elementary school, there was indeed a classmate in her class who usually spoke normally but would stutter as soon as he got nervous. However, more than ten years had passed and Xu Youyou could no longer remember what he looked like.
The Queen Mother was stunned when she heard this. She just thought Lu Jingyao was handsome, but she didn't expect that she was so eloquent that she went to the orphanage to propose marriage and directly mentioned the future wife of the richest man.
But she was used to throwing tantrums. She rolled her eyes and said with a stiff neck, "The orphanage is full of children without parents. If I didn't pity you, I wouldn't come to propose marriage. Forget it, with such a bad temper, our Wang family doesn't want you anymore!"
Having said that, the Queen Mother turned around and wanted to run away with her husband and son. Before leaving, she did not forget to take away the "generous gift" she brought with her.
This time it was Mother Lu's turn to be unhappy: "Don't leave! How dare you say that about my future daughter-in-law? Apologize to her immediately, or I'll never let you go!"
The Queen Mother refused to listen and turned around to run, but just as she reached the door, it was blocked by a police car.
"Hello, who called the police?" the police asked politely.
Lu Jingyao raised his hand gently.
The police glanced at him casually, then suddenly paused, and couldn't help but look at him twice more. It felt like suddenly meeting a star in real life, full of disbelief.
The police looked at Xu Youyou again and felt that she looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where she was for a moment.
Lu Jingyao said directly: "Comrade police, someone is forcing me to marry."
The policeman was stunned when he heard this. It seemed that he had not seen this kind of call to the police for a long time, and the word seemed unfamiliar to him.
The Queen Mother immediately said, "It's a misunderstanding... I just came to propose marriage... I didn't force you to marry me..."
Lu Jingyao said, "She just asked Xu Youyou to go to her house right now, saying that they want to get the marriage certificate before the New Year."
The Queen Mother took two steps back in fear: "This...I just said this casually."
The police officer looked at Wang Mu and the crowd of people behind her, and said to her sternly, "Don't say anything careless. We live in a society ruled by law now. Marriage is voluntary. We can't do things that were done in the old society."
The Queen Mother nodded awkwardly.
Seeing that it was indeed nothing serious, the police criticized and warned the Wang family, and made a record to ensure that this group of people would not cause trouble again, and then left with peace of mind.
The yard finally quieted down. Xu Youyou turned to the Lu family and said, "Thank you, Aunt Lu, and thank you, Mr. Lu."
"Why call him Mr. Lu? That's too polite. Just call him Jingyao, or call him Xiaojing like me." Lu's mother said casually.
This time it was Lu Jingyao who started coughing.
Xu Youyou asked again: "When did you call the police? Why didn't I see you make a call?"
Lu Jingyao said casually: "After taking a look at Assistant Liu, he went to the police station to report the incident himself."
Assistant Liu also came along this time. Xu Youyou didn't expect that the communication between the two of them had become so smooth that they could understand each other's thoughts with just a glance.
Xu Fang, who was standing by, was learning silently, but she felt that she was still far from being a top assistant.
Dean He also watched the whole process. She wanted to help, but she didn't expect that Lu's mother rushed out too quickly and there was no place for her to help. At this time, she gave Xu Youyou a smile full of relief.
Lu Jingyao suddenly said to Xu Youyou: "Youyou, I want to ask you something in private."
