Watching a group of people leave, her expression turned somber, and the smile she had earlier was gone.
Xu Qiaoqiao walked over to Mrs. Lu's side, asking, "Why didn't you go with them?"
Mrs. Lu stubbornly replied, "Go for what? To see how dazzling she is? To see how perfectly they complement each other as a pair? To admire their match in both talent and beauty?"
Xu Qiaoqiao sighed, "Mrs. Lu, you..."
Mrs. Lu clenched her jaw and moved aside, "I want to be alone for a while."
She left the banquet scene and walked to the nearby balcony, standing there, gazing into the distance.
Xu Qiaoqiao watched and suddenly felt that this woman was quite pitiful.
She didn't know how long had passed when Miss Liu slipped out of the crowd, while Mr. Lu continued talking to people over there. Miss Liu saw the person on the balcony and walked over.
Xu Qiaoqiao followed behind Miss Liu, reaching the edge of the balcony, just close enough to hear their conversation.
