The Goddess is Sweet and Aloof-Chapter 1081 - 1077: Made Me Laugh

Lu Xi had yet to react, but Qiao Xiaren burst out laughing first.

She had heard of wives beating up mistresses, but she had never seen a husband bring his pure-as-a-lotus mistress to someone else’s turf to act arrogant. The absurdities of this world just kept multiplying.

A man like this still breathing the same fresh air as normal people? Why not just drop dead and purify the atmosphere?

Zhong Qing had more or less pieced together the backstory by now and couldn’t help but feel disgusted by the man. Keeping a mistress was bad enough, but to bully the wife on top of that, with that haughty and indifferent attitude? Cheating and still thinking it’s someone else’s fault?

What an absolute scumbag!

"What are you laughing at?" Chen Mei, emboldened now that her backup had arrived, became even more arrogant. "You, standing up for this whore and bullying me? You’re no better, just as low as Lu Xi! A pair of filthy bastards!"

The words "Lu Xi" and "low" were keenly picked up by the surrounding crowd, instantly causing a commotion— free𝑤ebnovel.com

Lu Xi, wasn’t she that super popular actress from before?

Lu Xi could feel the escalating chaos and the growing audience, which filled her with embarrassment. Chen Mei’s smug expression only made her both furious and sad.

Zhong Qing and her friends were also surprised. There was no way they hadn’t recognized her. Back then, they had chased her dramas night after night, only to de-fan her after she was hurt by that scumbag ex-husband. It had taken them a long time to get over it.

"I’m sorry, something happened in my shop. You all should head back first." Lu Xi felt mortified, glancing apologetically at Qiao Xiaren and the others. "I’m sorry for dragging you into this."

"It’s fine, I’m not in a rush," Zhong Qing replied, visibly grossed out by this kind of man and showing no intention of leaving. "Miss Lu, I’ll wait until you finish arguing with them, and then we can discuss how to design my cheongsam."

Qiao Xiaren didn’t feel like leaving either. After all, she was curious to see how the world could produce such disgusting men and wanted to enjoy the vulgar, pretentious performance of the mistress.

Lu Xi hadn’t anticipated this reaction from Zhong Qing. Feeling both grateful and embarrassed, she forced a smile. Not wanting the degrading couple to ruin her customers’ mood, she snapped, "You two, get out now! And the farther the better! I don’t want to see you! Xiaofang, grab a broom and sweep this trash out for me!"

Chen Mei, naturally, was provoked by being called "trash," and even her disguise as a soft and gentle lotus flower cracked. Furious, she scowled, "Lu Xi, I came here to deliver money to your doorstep, and you’re this emotionally unstable? This is outrageous!"

"Who wants your money?" Lu Xi’s anger made her laugh sarcastically. "Money earned by selling your stinking body? Like I’d find that appealing? Pah!"

Lu Xi didn’t care anymore since Chen Mei had shown she had no shame. After all, she had been out of the limelight for a while now, so what was there to fear?

Wang Han’s face shifted repeatedly, her unease apparent as she looked at the man beside her. "Ma Bin..."

"Don’t be afraid." Ma Bin’s soothing tone to Wang Han was soft, but when he turned to Lu Xi, his voice turned icy. "Lu Xi, don’t push your luck. Bullying my woman this way, I can make sure you won’t be able to stay in the Capital!"

"How exactly am I pushing my luck?"

Chen Mei, who had always been hot-tempered, couldn’t take it anymore when she saw Lu Xi daring to insult Wang Han. Without hesitation, she rushed forward to yank at Lu Xi’s hair. "Who the fuck do you think you are? How dare you insult Xiaohan? Just because she’s pure and kind, you think you can bully her like this? Let me tell you, Ma Bin and I won’t stand for it!"

Pure and kind?

Qiao Xiaren couldn’t help but laugh again at such a ridiculous choice of words.

Lu Xi felt like her scalp was about to be torn right off by this crazy woman, the pain making her grimace in agony.
