Lu Gui explained everything clearly, attracting attention from the other players.

"How do you know so much?"

Zhen Hu looked at Lu Gui suspiciously. Their character information didn't provide any background knowledge about Madame Dai Wei's villa.

"Different roles provide different information, I guess." Lu Gui's explanation was simple, "My character is good at gossiping, so I know a lot of these rumors."

"You just mentioned Madame Dai Wei, but you referred to her as the businessman's mistress..."

Bai Xiao frowned slightly upon hearing Lu Gui's description, as if she had already figured it out. Lu Gui then nodded, confirming that Madame Dai Wei was indeed just a mistress, not the legal wife.

"But I heard that the businessman was deeply in love with Madame Dai Wei. After she died, he committed suicide out of love. That's why others who knew the businessman referred to her as 'Madame'."

"Heh~"

Lu Gui's words elicited disdainful sneers from several women present.

Even the cursive font of the neon logo "Madame Dai Wei" above the villa's gate was making the women feel physically uncomfortable.

"Is the game designer trying to feed us shit this time?"

Bai Xiao's face was cold, and Wang Wenfei and the others also wore grim expressions.

"Are they trying to promote the beautiful love between a cheating man and a mistress?"

Even Lu Xiaoyao, who was usually insensitive, was unusually sensitive and resistant on this matter.

"Heh, if that's the case, I'll report this game as soon as it comes out."

The female players spoke one after another, while the other men couldn't get a word in. It was none of their business, but they occasionally received disgusted glances from the female players, and for a moment, Mandison and the others suddenly felt a sense of shared hatred.

"Death to scumbags!"

Mandison shouted first, and the Zhen brothers followed suit.

Only Julian added, "What if... I mean, what if there's more to it than meets the eye? Wouldn't it be bad to enter the game with such bias?"

"What? Do you think there's a good reason for a man to cheat, or that being a mistress is something to be proud of?"

Bai Xiao was particularly combative, probably because she was in a relationship. After saying that, her gaze naturally fell on Yuan Fang beside her, looking murderous.

Even Yuan Fang didn't stand by Julian's side at this time, refuting his statement, "If you truly love someone, why would you make them a mistress? If you truly respect and cherish your wife, why would you cheat?

"There's no excuse for a man's hardship here; you can't have both the fish and the bear's paw.

"Similarly, if you choose to be a mistress, you should be prepared to be criticized and scorned for your morals. Otherwise, what is it?

"You've ruined someone else's family, taken the money, and still want a proper status. After getting everything, you don't want others to say your actions are disgraceful, proudly flaunting your 'true love' and hoping others will admire and emulate you?"

Yuan Fang rarely spoke so sharply, but if he didn't say something, what would he do if his soon-to-be wife ran away? _(:3」∠)_

After all, his wife was important.

To this, Mu Chen also said, "Using 'true love' to justify such behavior is a desecration of true love."

"Exactly!"

Mandison and the Zhen brothers also expressed their opinions.

In short, they distanced themselves from Julian!

"That's not what I meant. I just meant... could there be more to the story of Madame Dai Wei's death and the businessman's suicide? Maybe it wasn't as beautiful as the legend says..."

Julian felt that if he didn't explain, Lu Xiaoyao's livestream would soon label him as a #Scumbag with the Potential to Cheat After Marriage#.

"You don't really think we'll be fighting beasts in this game, do you?"

Seeing that everyone was silent and looking at him with increasingly strange eyes, Julian had to continue to express his thoughts, "Perhaps this game is about uncovering the truth behind the tragic deaths at Madame Dai Wei's villa back then?"

"Tragic deaths?"

Just a second ago, everyone was condemning scumbags and mistresses; now, they all noticed Julian's choice of words.

While everyone wasn't paying attention, Julian and Lu Gui exchanged a silent glance in the air for a second, then looked away.

"It's said that on the day Madame Dai Wei died, it wasn't just her and the businessman who died, but also many of the guests who attended the banquet that day, and the villa's servants."

"No way? Everyone died?"

"Yes."

"So, it wasn't a suicide?" After hearing this, Bai Xiao sneered, "So many people died, and they still have the nerve to call it a suicide pact. It's really..."

"It probably wasn't a suicide pact. However, because outsiders don't know exactly how many people died here, nor do they know the identities of the dead, they only know the identities of some of the owners. As the story spread, it became the version of the male and female owners committing suicide together."

Lu Gui shook his head and sighed, continuing Julian's words.

Then he saw his younger sister approaching him, looking at him.

"What?"

"Brother, how do you know so much?" Lu Xiaoyao then turned to look at Julian, "You two seem a little strange. Could it be... did you two get some special identity scripts and plan to stab us in the back?"

The atmosphere changed in an instant as soon as Lu Xiaoyao finished speaking. Everyone also noticed that these two seemed to know a lot more information than the others!

Especially about the secrets that happened in this villa before.

Weren't these two the only ones who could echo each other so well?

"What can we do to stab you in the back? We're all security guards. If something happens, we'll all be unlucky together. What else is there?" Julian denied that his position was different from everyone else's.

"Yeah, if we really wanted to stab you in the back, we wouldn't say this kind of thing."

"Who knows if what you're saying is true or false? What if you deliberately spread false information to confuse us?"

"Lu Xiaoyao!" Lu Xiaoyao muttered a sentence and was immediately rewarded with a flick on the forehead by her older brother, "If your IQ isn't high enough, don't go around being suspicious!"

Lu Xiaoyao: ???

Is he really my brother?

[Pfft... definitely her brother.]

[Hahahaha, my baby is really something. Did you see that questioning-life face? She doesn't actually think she's smart, does she?]

[Emmm, not really smart, just bouncing back and forth on the verge of being stupid ┐(´∀`)┌]

For a moment, the livestream was amused by this pair of siblings trading barbs.

Ming Mei gave Lu Xiaoyao a thumbs up for this operation of starting to be suspicious within the team before they even reached the plot location.

Worthy of you, Lu Xiaoyao.

"Why don't you reflect on yourself? Why do I suspect that you're a bad guy when you're clearly my own brother?"

Lu Xiaoyao was angered by her brother's claim that she had a low IQ and retorted. Her words were almost directly saying, "Look at you, you look like a scumbag!"

As a result, Lu Gui still accurately rebounded the attack—"Who knows? Maybe it's because you're not very bright?"

Lu Xiaoyao: ???!!!
