"Yes, yes, yes, it’s absolutely true. There were people from the headquarters with me at the time, wife, if you don’t believe it, you can verify it for yourself. In any case, your man is definitely guilt-free!"
Lu Jing had actually never doubted Jiang Ye in that respect, it was just a matter of feeling annoyed, uncomfortable, and unhappy.
Women have strong possessive desires!
To have her own man ogled so openly by another woman, making it common knowledge across the internet, who would believe that wasn’t done on purpose?
As a woman, of course, she can guess what’s on another woman’s mind.
It’s a declaration of war!
She couldn’t help but roll her eyes at the man in front of her:
"Are you saying it wasn’t you who provoked this?"
Who’s the main culprit?
When it comes to this, the man...
"Wife, you can’t blame your man for this, can you?" So helpless.
How could he possibly control what others think?
All he could do was to try to avoid it as much as possible, or else steer clear altogether.
Jiang Ye had actually avoided it immediately, but unfortunately, the other party was unwilling. It was their unwillingness that led to all these scandals.
Lu Jing let out several cold laughs in succession:
"Do whatever you want, just don’t bother me."
The man didn’t like hearing that.
He forcefully grabbed her wrist and with a strong tug, pulled her into his embrace:
"Wife, there’s really nothing, how can I make you believe your man?"
"We’re in public, don’t be touchy-feely!"
This isn’t their home, where someone could pop out from anywhere.
Jiang Ye had no choice but to let go, though he didn’t loosen his grip on her hand:
"Wife, how come you suddenly showed up here?"
He didn’t need to experience the environment here for himself. The whole journey over pretty much gave him an idea.
Lu Jing asked with a meaningful tone:
"What do you think brought me here?"
Obviously, it was because of your rotten peach blossoms, right?
Isn’t it okay to seek some peace?
What could Jiang Ye say?
He couldn’t refute it. After all, the facts were right there, he couldn’t just tell barefaced lies, right?
"Stop, don’t call me that, go back to where you came from, don’t keep us here."
Hissh, was that an eviction notice?
Even more so, she started walking away without waiting for him.
Jiang Ye had stayed up all night to finish his work and had driven for several hours to get here; how could he leave that easily?
Seeing that she had already gone quite a distance, he leisurely caught up with his long strides.
"Wife, wait for your man!"
Lu Jing wished she could walk faster, but alas, the distance was so short, and he had the advantage of height and long legs. She was caught up with soon enough.
No choice, the two of them returned to the small building together.
By now, the food for lunch was almost ready, and from a distance, the director called out loudly:
"Xiao Lu, Mr. Jiang, come on, it’s time for lunch."
Now, Lu Jing couldn’t very well ask him to leave anymore. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel fire.net
Sure enough, the man looked at her with a smile, very much with the attitude ’you see, it’s your leader who’s inviting me to stay for lunch, not me.’
Lu Jing bit her cheek, said nothing, and went to find Doctor Wei.
As for Jiang Ye, he naturally turned towards the director and the others.
Even within a short time, a bunch of big guys got chummy, slapping each other on the back like good brothers.
One had to admit, the friendship between men seemed so much simpler and quicker than that among girls.
