nEveryone in the school knew that it was Lu Bei’s family car. Two years ago, Lu Bei had just entered his first year of high school. The day the car was photographed, he was still in school. Everyone was talking about the luxurious car. Everyone in the school knew that the person behind Lin Siqing was very likely to be Lu Bei’s father.

n

nBut even if they knew, they would not go online and say anything. Yang Liu was also a teacher in the school, so she naturally knew about this matter. There were also a few crude male teachers in the teachers group who made some disgusting comments.

n

n It’s normal for a rich man to have a mistress. For a man like CEO Lu, there are plenty of women who’d come knocking on his door. It’s normal for him to be tempted.

n

nSoon, a female teacher replied: Normal? Is your worldview twisted? It’s already the 21st century, and there are still men who think it’s normal to cheat?

n

nYang Liu did not want to see the female and male teachers argue in the group chat. After blocking the group chat, she carefully opened the chat box with Xiang Xiaoyuan: “Xiaoyuan, are you okay?”

n

nXiang Xiaoyuan was lying on her bed studying the results of today’s seminar when she suddenly received a message from Yang Liu. She was a little puzzled: I’m good.

n

nYang Liu thought about it. When she needed something, she would always ask Xiang Xiaoyuan. Now that something happened to Xiang Xiaoyuan, could she sit back and do nothing? That’s not what friends are for.

n

nThinking of this, Yang Liu sent a message: Then do you want to drink? Come to my house to relieve your mood?

n

nXiang Xiaoyuan was a little puzzled at first, but then she realized that Yang Liu had just bought a house today and was probably happy. She wanted to find someone to share her joy, so she replied happily: Okay!

n

nIt was a very joyful thing to go to a friend’s house to drink and chat. After getting sleepy, she would stay over at a friend’s house. Xiang Xiaoyuan got up from the bed and excitedly went to the cloakroom to change out of her pajamas. She also packed a bunch of skincare products, cosmetics, pajamas, and so on. She was clearly just going to stay over for one night, but she was so excited that she felt like she was going to move out of the house.

n

nWhen she was done packing, she realized that she would be out all night. Should she inform Lu Wanggui?

n

nJust now, Lu Wanggui told her that he had gone to the bathroom to take a shower and then went out again. He must have gone to the study to work. Thinking of this, Xiang Xiaoyuan went downstairs to the study. When she reached the door of the study, she heard Lu Wanggui’s solemn and low voice. It sounded like he was in a meeting?

n

nSensing the atmosphere in the study room, Xiang Xiaoyuan consciously dismissed her thoughts. After all, it was not a big deal to stay at a friend’s house, so she did not want to disturb his work.

n

nThinking of this, she quietly left. When she reached the first floor, she happened to meet Butler Liu. Butler Liu saw that she was carrying a huge bag and dressed neatly, as if she was going to run away from home. Then he thought of the gossip he had seen today and had a bad feeling.

n

n“Madam, you…”

n

nHe wanted to tell Madam that there was nothing going on between her husband and that female celebrity, Lin Siqing. Even if there was something going on, it was in the past. He had been at Repulse Bay Villa for so long, but he had never seen Lu Wanggui bring a woman home.

n

nHowever, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. He suddenly remembered that Madam was also brought back by his master all of a sudden. Before they got married, he had never seen her before.

n

nXiang Xiaoyuan lowered her head and stuffed the lipstick that she had taken out from her bag back in. She saw Butler Liu and casually said, “Uncle Liu, I’m going to my friend’s house for the night. I’ll be back tomorrow.”

n

nButler Lu looked worried. “Madam, are you staying out the whole night?”

n

n“Yes.”

n

nXiang Xiaoyuan zipped up her back. After making sure that the things inside would not fall out, she nodded. “I’ll be leaving first. Remember to tell him in a while.” She raised her hand and pointed in the direction of the study upstairs. “He’s in a meeting.”

n

nButler Liu nodded in understanding. “Yes, Madam.”

n

nHe understood what Madam meant. Perhaps Madam was uncomfortable because of the gossip on Weibo, but in reality, she was not as angry as they had imagined. After all, she was Mrs. Lu.

n

nShe might have just wanted to throw a tantrum and get her husband’s attention. Butler Liu was also someone who was married and had children. His wife still got jealous at her age and quarreled with him. However, this was a small matter. As long as he coaxed her a little, she would be fine.

n

nTherefore, he felt that he had the obligation to remind the master to coax his wife and bring her home from a friend’s house. This matter would be over.

n

nXiang Xiaoyuan did not know that Butler Liu’s mind had wandered so far. She carried her big bag and walked briskly to the garage to drive the car. The car slowly drove out of the villa’s front door. She thought that it was still early, so she stopped by the convenience store to check on the situation and buy some snacks and beer.. She parked the car in front of the convenience store.
