Immediately, a woman's voice came from inside the house, "Dali, someone's come in, your wife is here too."

"What? Who's here?"

Luo Yu and the group stood motionless in the outer room. After a while, Lü Dali came out of the room, wearing sneakers. He first glanced at Luo Yu, who was leading the way, and then looked at Miao Xiaohua behind her.

The moment Lü Dali saw Miao Xiaohua, a fierce glint appeared in his eyes; he wished he could devour her whole.

He might not know Lü Dali, but he did know Aunt Zhang and the others. After all, they were from the same mine, and Aunt Zhang and her group were quite famous in the Wulong Mine. It would be hard not to know them.

Lu Dali glared at Miao Xiaohua, then smiled at Aunt Zhang, "It's Sister Zhang! What brings you here today? Please come in. It's not like you're here without telling me, so I could prepare some good food for you."

After saying that, Lü Dali made way for them, and gestured for them to come inside.

Luo Yu didn't move. Since Lu Dali had mentioned Aunt Zhang, she naturally had to let Aunt Zhang go first.

Aunt Zhang didn't stand on ceremony and went into the house first.

As Miao Xiaohua passed by Lü Dali, Lü Dali glared at her fiercely and tried to reach out to pull her, but then he saw Xi Beizhan behind her, his eyes narrowed, and he immediately withdrew his hand.

Why is Xi Beizhan here too?

Lu Dali knew the renowned Captain Xi. Since his arrival, the security personnel had become much more diligent, more serious and attentive while on duty, and had increased the number of times they checked on the employees after get off work.

Turning to look at Luo Yu, Lü Dali felt certain of what was going on.

I came here with my wife.

But why did the women's federation people come?

Could it be that……

When Lü Dali realized why Luo Yu and the others had come, his expression immediately turned grim.

"Give."

Lu Dali happened to be standing at the door, and Xi Beizhan glanced at him expressionlessly.

Lu Dali quickly made way for Xi Beizhan and said with a smile, "Captain Xi is here too? Come in and have a seat."

Looking up again, Boss Lü was still standing in the yard. As usual, Lü Dali glared at him, scaring Boss Lü so much that he dared not go into the house and hid far away by the gate.

After everyone entered the house, Lü Dali followed them in. "Meng Jiao, go and boil some water and make some tea for everyone."

Aunt Zhang glanced at the anxious woman sitting on the kang (a heated brick bed), "No, no need to trouble yourself. It's getting late, let's get to business."

Miao Xiaohua also saw Meng Jiao, but instead of the expected fight, she glanced at her indifferently and then ignored her, as if Meng Jiao didn't exist. This surprised Luo Yu greatly.

Is this the normal reaction of a wife when she sees her husband's mistress?

Shouldn't we go up and slap her a few times, kick her a few times, and then tear her clothes and skirt, making her run naked?

Why is it different from what she thought?

Aunt Zhang first glanced at Luo Yu.

Seeing this, Luo Yu quickly shifted her attention away from Miao Xiaohua and nodded slightly to Aunt Zhang.

Aunt Zhang knew that Luo Yu meant for her to speak.

Aunt Zhang thought about it and agreed that it was a good idea. That way, if Lü Dali had any complaints, he wouldn't take them out on Luo Yu. She was an old lady about to retire; why would she be afraid of Lü Dali? If he had the guts, he could just kill her; that would be an honor for him.

Aunt Zhang coughed twice and said with a stern face, "Since you know who we are, you should be able to guess why we're here today, right?"

Lu Dali's face darkened, and he glared at Miao Xiaohua.

One glance reminded Miao Xiaohua of the beating she had received from Lü Dali, which terrified her so much that she hid behind Aunt Zhao and the other two, not daring to look at Lü Dali.

Seeing this, Aunt Zhang frowned even more and took a step to the side, blocking Lü Dali's view.

"Lu Dali, straighten your attitude."

Lu Dali's expression tightened, and he immediately became obedient, taking two steps back and sitting on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) by the door.

"Please have a seat, ladies and gentlemen from the Women's Federation. Let's talk things over slowly."

Lu Dali politely invited Aunt Zhang and the others to sit down.

Aunt Zhang turned her head and exchanged glances with Luo Yu and the others, nodded, and then Aunt Zhang took the lead in sitting down.

Aunt Zhang looked at Lü Dali calmly and whispered, "Lü Dali, I believe you understand now that you've seen us."

"That's right, we came to mediate because we heard you often beat up Comrade Miao Xiaohua."

Lu Dali glared at Miao Xiaohua and said with a smile, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. Don't listen to this old woman's nonsense, it's not true."

I admit I hit her, but I don't hit her often, only occasionally. I was drunk yesterday and couldn't hold back, so I hit her.

The older women know that my family is poor. I'm the only breadwinner. Seeing other families living prosperous lives while my family is like a beggar's, it breaks my heart!

After Lu Dali finished speaking, a look of sadness appeared on his face, his eyes reddened, and tears welled up in them.

Luo Yu looked at Lü Dali in shock.

This performance was absolutely amazing; he could bring himself to cry so easily. Those young male celebrities in the entertainment industry of later generations should really learn from him.

If the older women hadn't seen the injuries on Miao Xiaohua's body, they would have been completely fooled by his performance.

Aunt Zhang frowned and said softly, "You don't need to cry. Crying won't solve the problem. We're not here to solve your family's food shortage."

Hitting someone is wrong, and besides...

Aunt Zhang glanced meaningfully at Meng Jiao, who was hiding on the kang (a heated brick bed), and said, "Comrade Miao Xiaohua also told us about your affair with this woman."

"Lu Dali, you're something else! You're not a great guy, but you're quite the womanizer, even having an affair with a mistress. What, do you want to go back to feudal society and become a local tyrant? Should we build you a palace and let you keep a few more women?"

Aunt Zhang's words were quite harsh, which startled Lü Dali so much that he quickly stood up and waved his hands, saying, "No, I didn't. Don't listen to Miao Xiaohua's nonsense. It's not true."

I have no relationship with Meng Jiao at all. We are just ordinary comrades. Her husband is my good friend and also works at our mine. I came here to drink with him because I was in a bad mood. He hadn't gotten off work yet, so I was waiting here.

"If you don't believe me, ask Meng Jiao."

Lu Dali pointed at Meng Jiao, signaling her to say a few words.

Meng Jiao knew what would happen if her affair with Lü Dali were exposed, so she quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, yes, Lü Dali and I have nothing to do with each other. We are just ordinary comrades. I have a husband."

Aunt Zhao and the others rolled their eyes at her disdainfully. Aunt Liu said, "Alright, stop acting. We know everything about your business. Without solid evidence, would we be coming to your door?"

Aunt Hu said, "That's right. Don't say that Lü Dali was the matchmaker for you and your husband. It's useless. You've been together for a long time, and you even have a son. What's there to deny?"

Aunt Zhao curled her lip. "I really don't understand. What's so good about this woman? Is it worth risking your head to do this?"
