Chapter 268: Inquiring
Qiao Xiaoxiao followed Mrs. Lu to another gazebo in the park and sat down.
There was a lamp in the pavilion, and there was a lot of light, and after Qiao Xiaoxiao sat down, Mrs. Lu's eyes never left her face, as if she was looking at another person through her face.
This suddenly reminded her of the way Qiao's father looked at her when he went home to celebrate Qiao's mother's birthday a few days ago, which was exactly the same as Mrs. Lu's eyes at this time.
Qiao Xiaoxiao frowned, could it be that there was something wrong with her current appearance?
Mrs. Lu noticed her movements and smiled embarrassedly.
"You look so much like an old friend of mine, very similar, it makes me have a little illusion, thinking that she is back."
Qiao Xiaoxiao suddenly thought of the gossip that Chu Duan told her yesterday.
The old man in Mrs. Lu's mouth can't be her rival in love, right?
But when you think about it, you think it's unlikely, if you meet a rival in love, you won't be excited like this.
Qiao Xiaoxiao didn't hide the thoughts in her heart, so Mrs. Lu understood the meaning in her eyes.
"Xiaoxiao, you must have heard some rumors about me, right?"
Being seen through his thoughts, Qiao Xiaoxiao was a little embarrassed, so he smiled wryly, "I've heard a little." β
Mrs. Lu smiled very generously, "Actually, it's not a secret, the matter between me and my husband is known to everyone in this circle, and you don't have to feel embarrassed." β
Qiao Xiaoxiao looked at her with some puzzlement, and really couldn't understand her thoughts.
Generally speaking, there is no woman who doesn't care about this kind of thing. The husband has another love in his heart, and for the sake of that woman, he has ignored her for more than 20 years, and everyone knows about it, which no one can accept.
But Mrs. Lu's peaceful appearance really doesn't look like a deep resentful woman.
And this Mrs. Lu also looks very dignified and intellectual, which is completely incompatible with the image of a sensitive middle-aged resentful woman in her imagination.
Mrs. Lu sat there generously, letting Qiao Xiaoxiao look at her, which made Qiao Xiaoxiao a little embarrassed.
"Mrs. Lu, what do you want to tell me when you came to me? About the conflict with Ling Yuan yesterday? If this is the case, I can only say that Ling Yuan asked for it. I'm not a messy person, but if someone has to mess with me, she's going to have to be prepared to suffer the consequences. β
"Of course not." Mrs. Lu smiled and shook her head, "I know Xue Wei's temperament too well, I spoiled her and made her develop such a willful and rude appearance, I apologize to you for her rude behavior yesterday and just now." β
Qiao Xiao waved his hand embarrassedly, "I didn't suffer a loss, Mrs. Lu doesn't have to be like this." β
After Mrs. Lu apologized, she asked, "I called you here to ask you where your hometown is, what are your parents' surnames, and how old are they?" β
Qiao Xiaoxiao suddenly became vigilant, although she felt that this Mrs. Lu looked very kind, but she was not naΓ―ve enough to really think that Mrs. Lu was harmless.
Born in a wealthy family, and can let himself live a dignified and beautiful life in such a disadvantaged situation, how can it really be so harmless?
She had to suspect that Mrs. Lu wanted to take the opportunity to get into her family situation, and then wanted to secretly make some small moves to embarrass her family.
Before she figured out Mrs. Lu's purpose, how could she tell the truth without defense.
So Qiao Xiaoxiao half-covered her eyes and said with a smile: "My hometown is the same village as Chu, I follow my father's surname, my mother's surname is Ma, they are both in their early forties this year, and there is an elder brother at home." β
