"Mhm, where are you?" she asked.
Jiang Yekou had no idea that such a big surprise was waiting for her at home. She lifted the lunchbox in her hand:
"I’ll be right back."
It’s hard to explain over the phone: ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novelFirｅ.net
"Okay, then hurry up."
And then, the call was disconnected.
Jiang Ye was left wondering, was that call just to ask where he was?
He felt it wasn’t just that, but couldn’t figure out why?
Whatever, just go home, and once home, everything would be clear.
Jiang Ye quickened his pace more than usual, and within minutes, he was up the stairs.
With a face full of excitement, he couldn’t wait to pull out his keys and open the door:
He had barely called out when a face appeared.
"Bro, hehe, good morning."
His brow twitched uncontrollably, and he almost gritted his teeth as he asked:
"Jiang Yuan, what are you doing here?"
At that moment, Lu Jing also came out from the study, and Jiang Yuan instantly hid behind him:
"Bro, we had an agreement, didn’t we? I was supposed to stay at your and sister-in-law’s place!"
Jiang Ye had really forgotten about this issue.
For a moment, he felt a headache coming on.
"Who agreed with you?"
After all, Jiang Ye had never given a definite response from the beginning.
Hearing this, Jiang Yuan grew anxious:
"Bro, how can you go back on your word? A man’s word is his bond, once said, it’s harder to catch than the chariot horses, you know?
Besides, sister-in-law agreed!"
Jiang Ye’s gaze turned towards his wife, with a look of deep accusation.
As if to say, ’How could you agree to let this bright lightbulb live in our house?’
Lu Jing was extremely embarrassed, with the corners of his mouth twitching non-stop.
He really wanted to say: This is your own sister! Not some outsider, and yet you resent her so much?
Thinking this, he instantly felt that his cousin Lu Yan was truly a good guy.
At least he had never once resented their sisters.
Now that she’d arrived at their home, it was impossible to send her away.
No matter how much Jiang Ye complained or resented, it was pointless.
Lu Jing grabbed Jiang Yuan’s wrist:
"Don’t listen to your brother."
Jiang Yuan, that girl, was ready to exploit the situation:
"Mhm mhm mhm, I’ll listen to sister-in-law!"
Look how sweetly she speaks.
In the entire household, it seemed like only Jiang Ye was silently rolling his eyes on the side, not daring to say a word.
But he was still holding breakfast in his hand:
"Wife, come have breakfast."
Lu Jing glanced sideways at him, then turned back:
"Xiao Yuan, have you had breakfast yet?"
There was no way Jiang Yuan could have eaten breakfast after catching a plane early in the morning.
And as for airplane meals, she certainly wouldn’t choose those.
"Let’s eat together then."
"Mhm mhm mhm, thank you, sister-in-law."
That ’sister-in-law’ came out so smoothly, even though she used to call her Sister Lu.
Although Jiang Ye resented his sister, he was proactive in helping her get an extra pair of chopsticks when it was time to eat.
When the two women sat down, Jiang Ye voluntarily helped serve the rice.
This rendered Jiang Yuan’s eyes wide with surprise.
Her own brother could actually be so considerate?
Suddenly, she took out her phone and quickly pressed the camera button.
With a ’click’, Jiang Ye’s gaze shot over:
"What are you doing?"
At that moment, of course, Jiang Yuan immediately hid behind Lu Jing:
"Sister-in-law, look at my brother, he’s scolding me again!" she complained.
Lu Jing patted Jiang Yuan’s hand:
"It’s okay, don’t be afraid of him; he wouldn’t dare do anything to you."
