Chapter 383 Woman

"Ouch, are you in such a hurry to be reborn?"

Lu Xiaoyao, who had been patrolling the periphery of the villa for quite a while, was suddenly bumped into by a lady in a wine-red evening dress wearing a mask, who darted out from around the corner.

Before Lu Xiaoyao could figure out what was going on, the other party made the first move, giving her a shove that sent her staggering backward as she quickly ran away.

It seemed like she was avoiding something.

"Hey, stop… you…"

Lu Xiaoyao was immediately angered by the other party's impolite behavior.

She immediately followed after her, wanting to stop her and ask what she was doing running around instead of properly attending the banquet inside.

Could it be that she also saw a moving toy bear?

"Wait for me!"

Thinking this, Lu Xiaoyao felt even more that she needed to stop her and ask more questions.

As a result, she saw the other party running faster as she shouted for her to stop, so she had no choice but to turn around and follow.

This NPC has a big problem!

She has to chase!

She's playing this game in a daze, and her brother has lost contact with them. Maybe this person has clues!

Having made up her mind, Lu Xiaoyao was about to speed up and catch the other party before she rushed into the house, but just then, a voice suddenly flashed in her mind—[Does the player want to stop patrolling and chase the NPC? This choice is very important, please choose carefully.]

"Of course, I'm chasing! A fool knows this NPC has a problem!"

Lu Xiaoyao gave the answer without thinking and immediately chased after her, finally catching her at the last moment.

"Ah!"

As if frightened by Lu Xiaoyao, the other party looked at Lu Xiaoyao, who had grabbed her, in horror, constantly twisting her wrist to break free from Lu Xiaoyao's control. However, Lu Xiaoyao didn't give her a chance to resist, directly pulling her into the corner on the other side.

"Shh—"

Lu Xiaoyao made a gesture of silence, "You don't have an invitation, do you?"

The woman, who had been struggling non-stop a second before, stiffened for a moment when she heard Lu Xiaoyao's half-certain and half-doubtful words.

"As expected…"

With just this brief moment of stiffness, Lu Xiaoyao was even more certain that the other party really didn't have an invitation.

"Are you here to cause trouble?"

"No… I'm not."

The woman shook her head, resolutely denying that she was here to cause trouble.

"Then why did you come in without an invitation? What do you want to do?"

"I… I…"

After stammering for a long time, Lu Xiaoyao watched as the tears that had been accumulating in the other party's blue eyes finally burst, making her feel extremely guilty.

It was as if she was the bad guy!

"Can you speak? I can't do anything to you. Can't you see that I'm talking to you behind that old man's back?"

The old man Lu Xiaoyao was talking about was the one who called them over to redistribute the work.

"I, I want to… want to…"

After hesitating for a moment, the woman had already changed from constantly shedding tears to sobbing softly. Then, as if she couldn't bring herself to say it, she clutched the skirt at her side, and under Lu Xiaoyao's increasingly impatient gaze, she finally said, "I'm here to find my husband."

"Oh, find your husband… huh?"

Lu Xiaoyao sensitively noticed the meaning in the woman's words, "He came here to have fun behind your back?"

Woman: "…"

Although some of Lu Xiaoyao's wording was inappropriate, she thought that she should understand what the other party wanted to express, so she slowly nodded.

"Which one is your husband?"

Just as Lu Xiaoyao was talking to this lady, Bai Xiao, who had found an excuse to come out, suddenly appeared here, causing the originally quiet lady to struggle again, wanting to escape.

"Don't, don't, don't move! She's my friend, we're together."

Lu Xiaoyao quickly pressed the other party's shoulders, stopping her before she could open her mouth to shout.

"It wouldn't be good for my husband's reputation if people knew about this…"

She was willing to tell Lu Xiaoyao alone about that matter because she was forced by the situation, but that didn't mean she was willing to tell more people.

"Come on, your husband came to the banquet without you. What kind of good person is he that you have to worry about his reputation?"

Bai Xiao was more direct than Lu Xiaoyao when she said this. Even though the other party's mask was not taken off, they still felt that the other party's heart was broken into pieces by her words.

"My husband proposed a divorce to me some time ago." The woman's eyes drooped, and her tone was dejected, "Everyone said he had found true love…"

"And then?"

"He said that after the divorce, he would compensate me with a large divorce settlement, and the child would be given to me. In addition, he would pay a high amount of alimony every year."

"Sounds good, you can ask for more. After all, there's nothing to miss about this kind of scum who cheats on you because he has found true love. Unclean rotten cucumbers are not as reliable as money."

The woman looked at Bai Xiao in astonishment. Listening to her somewhat extreme description, she didn't feel that there was anything too wrong for a moment. She blinked her eyes and slowly said, "I, I just want to come and see with my own eyes before the divorce what the so-called true love is better than me."

"What? You still want to improve if you find that she is better than you, or tell your husband that the other party is not as good as you and ask him not to divorce you if you find that she is not better than you?"

Bai Xiao almost poked the other party's head with her hand and questioned her if she was being silly and what she was thinking.

As a result, the other party shook her head quietly again, took several deep breaths, and said, "I just want to see… after I see it, I'll get a divorce. I've already bought the ticket. After the divorce, I'll take my daughter to my hometown to live. It's a beautiful and quiet small city."

When talking about her daughter, Lu Xiaoyao didn't miss the tenderness in the other party's eyes and took a few more glances.

Little did she know that the barrage was already going crazy.

[Dog man! I spit on you! You #@¥%¥……%!!]

The front was directly forked out by the management because of excessive emotions and vulgar language.

[Such a good woman! Duleson, you xxxx!]

[Wuwuwu, after watching it again, I still feel that Ms. Mary is really good-looking, gentle, petite and cute wuwuwu~ how can it be so miserable?]

[I'm different, I really like Daiwei so much. When I think of her in the end… ah ah ah ah! The scumbag will have his cucumber snapped off!]

Mingmei seemed to vaguely see something from the barrage, which was already filled with pity and scolding for the several unfamiliar names, as if they were related to spoilers.

Lu Xiaoyao and the others' plot began to advance, and because they couldn't find a place to turn on the lights, a group of people had to use Mingmei's boxed lunch night market function to visit the second floor.

"There seems to be a pile of jewelry here."

Even though the jewelry had been scorched by the fire, and the metal melted and wrapped around the gorgeous gems, one could tell from the exposed corners how prominent the identities of the people who attended the banquet back then were.
