Chapter 35 A Step Late



There was no light on in the living room, but the lighting inside the house was very good, and I could clearly see the layout of the villa.

It is a two-story building with flowers and green plants in the front and back yards.

The room was filled with jasmine-scented incense, and under the shoe cabinet by the door was a pair of couple slippers.

I estimate that it is exactly Lu Zhiyuan's size.

It turns out that this is the love nest of Lu Zhiyuan and Q. I can even feel the deep love that only couples have.

It's ridiculous. I am obviously the wife that Lu Zhiyuan married to.

I glanced around the room and there seemed to be no one in the villa.

Damn it, now that I’ve found my way here, I must find out Q’s true identity today!

Suppressing the annoyance in my heart, I was about to search each bedroom when Qin Qun followed in.

"What on earth do you want to do?! Get out now, or don't blame me for being rude to you!" Qin Qun chased after me with a gloomy face.

He was more flexible than I thought. As soon as I pushed open the first bedroom door, Qin Qun grabbed my arm.

At the same time, the sound of high heels was heard outside the house.

I shuddered all over and looked back outside the house.

The next second, I saw an unexpected person.

"Mrs. Lu?" The woman stopped outside the door, her eyes filled with surprise. "Why are you here?"

I was stunned.

The person who came was Yuan Yaxin, Liu Yuan’s wife.

Beside me, Qin Qun let go of my hand in surprise when he heard the name "Mrs. Lu".

I looked at Yuan Yaxin in disbelief. I never expected to meet her here.

"Mr. Qin, I am very satisfied with this house. If there is no problem on your side, I would like to sign the contract as soon as possible." Seeing that I didn't respond, Yuan Yaxin shifted her gaze to Qin Qun's face.

Qin Qun looked at me, then at Yuan Yaxin, and finally said in a deep voice, "No problem. My daughter is abroad now, and she has given me full authority to handle it."

My heart skipped a beat. The lady Qin Qun was talking about must be Q.

Q is abroad and has already sold the house, so I am still a step too late.

I pursed my lips, feeling very unwilling but helpless.

I stared at Qin Qun and knew that it was impossible to get anything out of him, so I had to give up.

"Mrs. Liu, I have other things to do, so I won't disturb you from talking about business." I said to Yuan Yaxin after I calmed down.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Yaxin stopped me and said, "Mrs. Lu, I'll take up two more minutes of your time."

She took me to the backyard.

"What do you want to talk to me about, Mrs. Liu?" I asked politely.

Yuan Yaxin got straight to the point, her attitude distant but polite: "I hope you can keep my apartment search a secret."

"Who should I keep it secret from?" I blurted out in surprise.

"Liu Yuan, and your best friend." Yuan Yaxin said calmly, her eyes cold. "It's only a matter of time before Liu Yuan and I divorce. Please tell your best friend that I don't want to compete with her for a man like this."

"My best friend?" I was shocked, but soon realized that Yuan Yaxin already knew about Liu Yuan and Wu Ying's affair.

Moreover, she thought Wu Ying and I were best friends.

I recalled the scene on the night of the social gathering. It was me who called 120 for Wu Ying, so Yuan Yaxin must have misunderstood.

"Mrs. Liu, you may have misunderstood. Wu Ying and I are not even friends." I tried to explain to her.

Yuan Yaxin sneered, "Also, I don't like the name 'Mrs. Liu'. Perhaps next time we meet, you could call me something different."

She didn't believe me at all, and I had no way to defend myself.

The phone rang. It was a WeChat message from Qiu Qiu.

I was gone for too long, and Qiu Qiu and the agent had talked till they ran out of words. If I didn't go back, she wouldn't be able to hold me back any longer.
