Don't pretend, everyone knows you're the villain!

Paul wrote painfully on the last page—"I know it's all an illusion; a beautiful marriage becomes our grave."

Ultimately, we will be destroyed.

—God, don't let me kill her with my own hands while I still love her.

--grateful!

Lu Tiannan felt that the sentence "While I still love her" was too ambiguous.

Can Paul kill Ellie the day he stops loving her?

So, is the Paul who returns tonight the one who deeply loves Ellie, or the Paul who waits for the right moment to kill her?

Does Ellie really want Paul to kill her through SM? Peanut powder... his intentions are too obvious; Ellie's determination to kill her husband is beyond question.

Did Paul lie in his diary?

After all, although Ellie wanted to kill Paul, she hadn't told any of her intentions to these guests. She hadn't even uttered a single word of slander against her husband.

There must be more clues...

Lu Tiannan carefully searched the bookshelf, shaking most of the books that could be shaken, and only briefly glancing at a few.

Paul is truly humble and eager to learn; he even has SM instruction manuals, which explain roughly what kind of intensity and techniques can bring pleasure to a partner without causing harm.

Lu Tiannan thought he would be the last one to come downstairs, but when he came down, apart from the two people who were busy cooking in the kitchen, everyone else was still upstairs.

Instead of sharing the contents of the diary with Yan Yu and Liu Ya first, Lu Tiannan went to the door of the house to find the female homeowner.

The hostess, Ellie, greeted Lu Tiannan with a smile, "Oh, my dear guest, how is dinner prepared?"

"Beautiful lady, we've added plenty of peanut powder to the dish we prepared for your husband; he'll surely love it." Lu Tiannan wanted to see what Ellie's expression would be.

To everyone's surprise, Ellie answered with a smile, as if it were common knowledge, "Yes, Paul loves peanut powder the most."

"You are such a good wife. You even remember your husband's preferences so clearly. Your husband is very lucky," Lu Tiannan praised gently with a smile.

Ellie suddenly froze, and after a long silence, she slowly said, "Thank you."

It's unclear whether this "thank you" was for the dishes made with peanut powder or for Lu Tiannan's praise.

Ellie still showed no intention of going inside, seemingly determined to wait for her husband Paul to return before they went in together.

The stir-fried dishes were served one after another, and were thoughtfully covered with bowls to keep them warm. The request to cook was finally fulfilled.

We're just waiting for a decision on whether or not peanut powder needs to be added.

Yan Qing and Han Yuting lingered upstairs for a while before coming down, both looking quite unhappy.

Liu Ya quickly went over and hugged Yan Qing to comfort her. Yan Yu asked softly with concern, "Yu Ting, what did you find? You look very pale."

Han Yuting looked through the glass at the woman, Aili, who was still standing expectantly in front of the farm, waiting for her husband to return, and felt very sorry for her.

“Aili discovered Paul’s infidelity.” Han Yuting produced a photograph showing Paul intimately embracing another woman.

On the back of the photo, in neat handwriting, were written: "Explain yourself properly, and I will believe you and forgive you. Why did you reject me?"

Yan Yu knew how much Han Yuting hated those who betrayed and were unfaithful in love, so he held Han Yuting's hand tightly and asked a question.

"Does that mean Paul refused to explain this? Is there some unspeakable reason behind it?"

No one answered, so Yan Qing took out a very wrinkled photo.

"I found a photo of the homeowner, Ellie, kissing another woman in the mattress lining." Yan Qing was also surprised that Ellie, who had a husband, would kiss another woman so intimately.

This was a significant blow to her as a lesbian.

Disloyalty means deception.

But Liu Ya came over and hugged her the moment she came downstairs, which made her happy.

Her Aya is a great companion.

The four lines written on the back of the photo are:

When souls merge, the constraints of the body have long since broken through worldly limitations.

Ellie, I firmly believe that love can last forever.

Don't be afraid, we are not wrong.

I will stay with you longer than Paul.

Liu Ya was stunned and hurriedly handed the photo to Yan Yu, "Is it the same lady?"

Yan Yu compared the photos, then shook his head and sighed, "Paul's photo only shows the woman's back, while Ellie's only shows her profile and hairstyle. I'm not sure."

After all four of them carefully examined the photos, Yan Qing was very confused: "If they all cheated, who should we help?"

Lu Tiannan took the two photos Yan Yu handed him and smiled knowingly.

"Perhaps the woman in the photo is the important NPC."

Upon hearing this, Yan Yu suddenly looked at the female owner, Ellie, outside the glass in the distance. "Brother Lu, do you mean she exists in the farm?"

"I'm not sure, but I suggest you don't use peanut powder. Accidentally killing the male homeowner is not a big deal, but if the male homeowner dies unjustly, then Paul will go berserk."

The mere thought of a rampaging NPC sends chills down your spine, yet Lu Tiannan describes it as casual and lazy.

It must be said that his lazy tone dispelled a lot of unease.

Han Yuting stared at Lu Tiannan in a deep voice, "What did you find?"

Lu Tiannan casually tossed over a notebook, which was Paul's.

Before the others could even look through it, Lu Tiannan went out on his own to the vibrant farm.

Ha... Regardless of whether there are any more clues, we have to wait for the male homeowner to return before making any decisions.

It was a truly oppressive house, with Ellie alone and suffering, Paul torn and in pain, and one or two other women whose names were unknown.

What is it that's trapping them? Is it emotion or desire?

Liu Ya asked in a low voice, for some reason she just couldn't help but be wary of Lu Tiannan, "When you were on the second floor, did Lu Tiannan do anything strange?"

"Aya, don't be too nervous. I think he's a good person." Yan Qing felt a little embarrassed when she recalled Lu Tiannan's teasing words to Han Yuting, but there was no malice in them from beginning to end.

"While I still love her, don't let me kill her with my own hands. What does that mean?" Yan Yu pondered the sentence repeatedly, quite puzzled.

“I’m inclined to believe that Paul didn’t cheat,” said Liu Ya.

"The hugging photo might be from a very close friend, and the lack of explanation certainly raises suspicion, but it's nowhere near as romantic as the kiss..."

Yes, although they are named Paul and Ellie, they are both genuine Chinese. The original characters were definitely taken from China, and there is no kissing ceremony.

By any measure, Ellie's behavior was more inappropriate.

An intimate kiss, peanut powder is about to kill a husband with a severe peanut allergy.

They seem to have ulterior motives no matter how you look at it.

Yan Yu pondered quietly, "I tend to agree with Brother Lu's suggestion not to add peanut powder."

“I agree.” Han Yuting suspected Paul of infidelity, but he trusted Yan Yu’s judgment more.

"We don't have any objection either."

All four agreed, so no peanut powder was added to the dish.

Ellie's plan was destined to fail, but what was the key to breaking through the dungeon?

What kind of bloody storm awaits them when Paul returns? This is the first time the four of them have encountered a dungeon with NPCs, and the long wait is both tense and exciting.
