The woman was startled by the unfamiliar man's voice, "Who are you?"
"Let me go, and I'll leave right away, as if this never happened!"
Hearing the voices getting closer, Li Jixian became anxious, forcefully pushed the woman away, and walked towards the door.
As soon as the door was opened, a bright light shone in, and someone shouted, "It's right here!"
"Break in and catch this adulterous couple!"
By the sound of it, there were more than a dozen people.
Li Jixian was irritated by the light and instinctively closed his eyes. By the time he reacted, people had already rushed in from outside.
There were both men and women.
Leading them was a fierce-looking woman in her thirties, holding a pair of scissors. Judging by her clothes, she wasn't an ordinary civilian, but likely from a minor official's family.
"Where are they? Where are they?"
She stormed in with the scissors.
The people crowding in behind her instantly brightened the room.
