Chapter 248

Li Xiao cursed inwardly.

Why did he still have a feeling of happiness for his sister-in-law?

Just as he planned to step forward to greet her, yet another stunning beauty emerged from Wanqiu Beauty Salon.

It was that proprietress, Xu Hao's wife.

He noticed that Su Wanqiu's state and expression at that moment were unexpectedly identical to his sister-in-law's.

Her face was slightly red, her skin glowing with a pinkish hue, and her eyes were watery and Wu Mei…

Li Xiao's stepping foot paused, freezing in place as if struck by a bolt from the blue.

His pupils widened, his mouth gaped open, and he was utterly dumbfounded.

An uncontrollable thought surfaced.

The proprietress and the sister-in-law… To think they actually went together…

Li Xiao found it hard to believe.

To think he had believed that being together with the proprietress made his sister-in-law safe.

In the end, damn it, both of them had fallen into danger.

No wonder his sister-in-law's brows weren't furrowed when she came out.

Turns out there was an extra person to share the burden?

Li Xiao was deeply puzzled——

How could Xu Hao's wife agree to let her own husband hook up with her best friend?

Didn't she know that her best friend was being threatened by Xu Hao?

And how did she agree to sleep with him?

One doubt after another was about to fry his brain.

She was threatened by Xu Hao.

Thinking over and over, Li Xiao could only think of this answer.

No way, right?

That was his own wife, and he even threatened his own wife?

Just how damn rotten could this person be?

How infuriating…

Thinking of Xu Hao together with two stunning beauties, enjoying the blessings of multiple partners.

Li Xiao felt even more miserable than being killed.

Yao Xinrui walked in a hurry.

As if this place was some sort of demon cave, she needed to escape as soon as possible.

Indeed, to her, it was pretty much like a demon cave.

Thinking about the scene just now made her face flush red and her heartbeat accelerate.

So humiliating.

"Xinrui, slow down. Walking so fast, do you not want your bag?"

Su Wanqiu followed closely behind holding a bag.

Although her sense of shame was also bursting at the seams, she had been somewhat prepared and felt a bit better inside.

Yao Xinrui had left in such a rush that she dropped her bag.

She brought it over to her.

Yao Xinrui took the bag and continued walking outward without looking back.

Her gaze flickered, not daring to face this good friend.

After all, exposing her most shameful side in front of her made her very embarrassed.

Even though she had also seen hers…

She shook her head, quickly casting away these distracting thoughts.

"Xinrui, from now on we are comrades-in-arms, remember to keep in touch."

Yao Xinrui stumbled and almost fell over.

Keep in touch?

What kind of touch is there left to keep?

Never see each other again.

Yao Xinrui briskly walked to the parking lot.

Li Xiao watched in a daze.

Watching two mature beauties chatting and laughing was such a blissful thing.

But the moment he thought of what they had done just moments ago…

Li Xiao couldn't be happy no matter what.

He was hesitating——

Whether he should tell this proprietress about Xu Hao's wicked deeds right now and make them turn against each other.

At this time, Yao Xinrui's voice came from inside the car.

"What are you dazing off for? Why aren't you driving yet?"

Li Xiao snapped back to his senses and saw the somewhat anxious sister-in-law inside the car.

He was somewhat worried something might happen.

Glancing at Su Wanqiu, he sighed and decided to take his sister-in-law back first.

He would find another chance next time to tell Xu Hao's wife.

After the car drove a certain distance out of the beauty salon, Yao Xinrui's tense face relaxed.

The scenes in the office resurfaced, causing her cheeks to burn.

"Sister-in-law…"

Li Xiao's voice came from the front. Yao Xinrui pulled herself out of her thoughts and furrowed her brow, saying,

"What is it?"

Her attitude was exceptionally cold.

Li Xiao's heart twitched in pain, and enduring the heartache, he asked,

"Sister-in-law, just now… was that Xu Hao's wife?"

"So what if she is?"

"Just now, were you two together…?"

Li Xiao wanted to probe from his sister-in-law the reason why the two of them were together with Xu Hao.

Yao Xinrui reacted extremely strongly.

"Together what? Impossible, I didn't, don't talk nonsense…"

Li Xiao: "…"

Why are you in such a rush?

It's hard not to make people overthink.

Yao Xinrui also realized she had lost her composure.

But she wasn't panicked at all.

Although Li Xiao was her husband's subordinate, he was working for Xu Hao.

"Don't ask what shouldn't be asked…"

Li Xiao opened his mouth, then obediently shut it.

Even if he asked for the reason, what difference would it make?

Could he possibly stop Xu Hao?

Blame it on him being too weak right now.

Li Xiao was filled with self-blame, the veins on his hands gripping the steering wheel bulging.
