Chapter 144: Chapter 144 I Only Treat My Wife This Way

"That," the man choked for a good while.

"Doctor Lu, let’s not be bringing up old grudges, shall we?"

"How about it, feeling guilty?"

Jiang Ye felt that it was better to express himself with actions rather than dredging up the past.

The next second, he kissed her.

Approximately two to three minutes later, Lu Jing was panting, with her face turning beet red.

Jiang Ye looked almost unchanged, content as he stood up, not forgetting to pinch the woman’s face a couple of times.

Damn!

The touch felt really freaking good!

"Get lost!"

After being scolded, the man finally withdrew his hand:

"Auntie’s already rushing us."

Only now do you realize we’re being rushed at home?

Lu Jing rolled her eyes in annoyance, too out of breath to make a fuss.

She closed her eyes, choosing not to bother with it.

Switching from the back seat to the front seat took just a second, genuinely incomprehensible how he did it.

’Vroom vroom~’

The car started.

...

During the drive, the car sped along, taking only seven minutes for the whole journey, even waiting for two red lights.

After getting out of the car, Lu Jing was about to leave when the man grabbed her:

"Where are you staying tonight?"

"Do you really need to ask?"

With Mr. Lu and Lu’s mother here, could she even consider staying outside?

Might as well come clean.

The man’s face twitched instantly, before he continued:

"How about you say you’re working overtime tonight?"

Lu Jing was at her wit’s end:

"No way!"

Good grief, this guy’s got some nerve!

"Jiang Ye, don’t get any weird ideas, and if you start any trouble when we get up there, weigh the consequences yourself."

Best to warn him in advance to avoid a repeat of the midday incident that nearly stopped her heart.

Right after Lu Jing finished speaking, Lu’s mother called again:

"Hello, Mom?"

"Have you and Xiao Ye come back yet? Is the meal ready?"

"We’re already downstairs."

"Okay, then I’ll serve the food."

She then headed toward the elevator while still on the phone.

What could Jiang Ye do?

He had no choice but to follow hastily.

"I’ll stay here tonight, call me if you need anything."

Lu Jing seriously doubted whether this man was just looking for trouble:

"Jiang Ye?"

How could a man not perceive the suspicion on a woman’s face?

"Do you think I’m that untrustworthy?"

Just couldn’t comprehend it.

"Do you think you’re trustworthy?"

At least, in Lu Jing’s view, that was a question mark.

So, how could outsiders see this other side of their beloved firefighter uncle in private?

If they did, the filters would probably shatter.

Even Jiang Ye himself didn’t know how to recover from that, since, after all, he was the one who had done certain things with no way to deny it.

Luckily, he had thick skin.

"I’m only like this with my wife!" whispered into the woman’s ear, his tone quite suggestive.

Lu Jing’s ears turned red at once, and she quickly moved into the elevator.

Even when she got home, she couldn’t cool down.

And was questioned by Mr. Lu:

"Young lady, what’s wrong? Why is your face so red?"

Uh.

"Ah? Not at all. Maybe I just rushed a bit, Mom was hurrying me, right?"

Mr. Lu didn’t suspect anything and nodded.

At that time, Jiang Ye entered:

"Uncle."

"Yo, come in, come in."

Lu’s mother also called out from the dining room:

"Xiao Ye, thank you again, having to pick her up after work."

Lu Jing didn’t want to hear someone sweet-talk here, especially as it was her own parents, so she returned to her room.

This apartment had the same layout as the one downstairs, so she was really familiar with it.
