With Jiang Ye around, the group breezed through without any obstacles.
You’ve got to admit, professionals are just awesome.
Oh, a locked door? Just take it off its hinges. Read complete versıon only at novel⦿fire.net
And without damaging it in the slightest.
So, when Lu Jing saw the person outside the door, she was totally stunned.
But the others barged in with a laugh.
"How come you’re here?" she asked.
Last night, and even this morning, this guy hadn’t mentioned anything about being a groomsman.
Good job keeping it a secret!
But, as it turned out, it was all a misunderstanding.
In fact, it was a spur-of-the-moment idea for someone who didn’t know at first that Old Five was in the running to be a groomsman, hence the lack of forethought.
But once he knew it was Old Five, how could Jiang Ye let the chance slip by?
Because, you see, groomsmen and bridesmaids are supposed to walk together.
Jiang Ye wasn’t about to let his woman hold hands with another man.
So, he took matters into his own hands!
At the moment, no one was paying attention to the two of them, so Jiang Ye, bold as ever, reached out and grasped Lu Jing’s wrist:
"You’re the bridesmaid, I’m the groomsman."
"How come I never knew you were in the running to be a groomsman? Wasn’t it supposed to be Brother Five?"
Can’t you guess what happened?
This person is really...
Quite audacious, huh.
"Wife, do you really want Old Five as your partner?"
She dared not admit it, for if she did, Zheng Heming would be in danger.
Besides, Lu Jing didn’t feel that way.
Any groomsman would do, of course, except for the one right in front of her.
"Come on, let go. Everyone is watching."
But Jiang Ye didn’t let go; instead, he leaned in even closer:
"Wife, when can we...?"
He was really looking forward to it.
Lu Jing hesitated for a moment before pulling her hand away:
"Let’s talk about it later."
But the man persisted:
"What do you mean, ’later’? Huh?"
"I... I don’t know either, and besides, I haven’t decided yet, Jiang Ye, you promised me."
"Okay okay, I was just asking. If you don’t agree, I won’t force you, okay?"
"But, don’t make me wait too long, okay?
Wife, I want to marry you!"
To marry you, to have children with you!
Even though she had said before that she might never be able to have children in this life, Jiang Ye still held a sliver of hope.
Besides, if things weren’t set in stone, Jiang Ye wouldn’t be at ease.
What if his soon-to-be wife got away?
Who would he cry to then?
Lu Jing’s ears began to burn:
"What are you saying?"
Any woman would be flustered being told so blatantly to her face that someone wanted to marry her.
Yep, caught in the act.
Really, there was no way out!
"I’ll think about it."
Upon hearing this, the man visibly started to smile:
"You said it, no going back on your word."
It’s just thinking it over, right?
Then she’d really give it some thought before deciding.
Jiang Ye, seizing a moment when no one was looking their way, quickly kissed the woman’s hand twice.
It nearly scared the soul out of Lu Jing.
"What are you doing?"
What kind of trick is this now?
Absolutely pushing boundaries!
"Collecting a little interest."
Jiang Ye moved in again, whispering in Lu Jing’s ear:
"Do you think your brother will let me off the hook when he finds out?"
So, it’s about collecting some interest in advance.
After all, he might get beaten up later!
For a moment, Lu Jing didn’t know what to say, glanced a few times, and slowly said:
"Then be prepared to take a beating."
Lu Yan was indeed formidable, and of course, Lu Jing knew that.
