「The next evening.」
After dinner, Luo Xiu dressed up and changed into a handsome, stylish casual outfit. Anyone who didn't know better might have thought he was about to go on a date.
Just like Lin Xiyue.
Standing on the third-floor balcony, Lin Xiyue gazed at Luo Xiu's back in the courtyard, her fists gradually clenching.
"Scumbag."
...
Wu Tianhua's Mercedes-Benz G-Class was already waiting at the villa's entrance. Seeing Luo Xiu approach, Wu Tianhua hurried forward to open the car door.
"We're going to be out for several days this time. General Luo, have you said your goodbyes to the ladies?"
Luo Xiu frowned. "Ladies?"
The plural "ladies" from Wu Tianhua struck Luo Xiu as having a deeper meaning.
"Uh..."
Wu Tianhua chuckled awkwardly. "It's nothing, just a slip of the tongue."
