Chapter 832 - 813: I Know I Was Wrong
After Qin Mobai assured that he wouldn’t stop Lou Xi, he proactively called Lu Li, asking him to come to the Qin Family as soon as possible, claiming there was something important to discuss with him.
Lu Li thought it was a company matter, believing Qin Mobai to be so passionate about work that he started working at home the day after his wife returned.
Lu Li had no defenses and came to the Qin Family.
As soon as he entered, Lou Xi threw a book at him, which Lu Li skillfully dodged.
With that, Lu Li was confused; Lou Xi had just returned, why would she give him such a massive gift?
Lu Li glanced at Qin Mobai, only to see him displaying an indifferent demeanor, clearly not intending to intervene in his wife’s attempt to assault him.
"Sis-in-law..."
"Who is your sis-in-law? I wouldn’t dare to call myself your sis-in-law!" Lou Xi interrupted as soon as Lu Nanwang spoke, and seemed quite upset.
Lu Li quickly racked his brain about what he might have done to offend Lou Xi, and after thinking it through, he realized why Lou Xi was so furious.
"Lu Li, I told you before, if you can’t bring Bai Lu happiness, don’t mess with her. Now you’ve messed with her, you actually!"
Lou Xi couldn’t bring herself to utter the words "rape," as she learned from Qin Mobai that Lu Li did such a thing to Bai Lu, it made Lou Xi want to beat Lu Li to death.
This is not just disrespecting women, but once Lu Li did this, he downplayed his own dignity. Didn’t he consider these things?
Was it just for a moment of pleasure?
He may have had his joy, but what about Bai Lu?
This incident undoubtedly inflicted indelible harm on Bai Lu, which is why she chose to avoid everyone, even her best friend.
"At the time... I was... beside myself with anger." When Bai Lu mentioned breaking up, Lu Li genuinely panicked, worried that Bai Lu was serious.
A saying echoed in his mind, something someone said before: "Arguments at the head of the bed, reconciliation at the foot of the bed."
So Lu Li tried his shot, and who knew...
"Sis-in-law, I know I was wrong, so I’ve been looking for Bai Lu ever since. I’ve turned Nancheng upside down, but haven’t found any sign of Bai Lu." Lu Li explained.
"How dare you look for her! Looking for her in this manner leaves her no escape, do you want her to disappear forever?"
This was indeed the case; Lu Li crazily searched for Bai Lu in Nancheng but found no clues.
"Let me tell you, you’d better not keep looking for Bai Lu, I’ll find a way for her." At times like this, a best friend can be trusted.
"But..."
"But what?"
Lu Li paused, then glanced at the indifferent Qin Mobai, thinking they were brothers in arms, brothers help each other in times like these.
Yet, as Lu Li had described earlier, Qin Mobai appeared entirely uninterested in getting involved.
And truthfully, it was indeed Lu Li’s fault, he couldn’t argue against Lou Xi.
"Sis-in-law, if you find Bai Lu, could you inform me?"
"Do you think I would tell you?"
Lu Li instantly felt heartbroken, "I genuinely care about her."
"What does that have to do with me?"
At this moment, Qin Mobai gave Lu Li a reassuring look, and Lu Li instantly understood.
