Chapter 260: Chapter 260 Tough on the Outside, Soft on the Inside

"It was such a rare leisure moment, both of them seemed to be enjoying it greatly.

"Why did you say you were so busy? How come you suddenly came back?"

Faced with the woman’s sudden question, Jiang Ye wasn’t in a hurry,

"I forgot to mention I stayed in the office for several days straight without going home, didn’t I?"

Hmm?

"Don’t tell me you were preparing back then?"

"Correct."

Jiang Ye knew that Lu Jing would have a holiday for National Day, so of course, he tried every means to take a vacation with her.

Those days were indeed busy, and he had to stand guard on duty every night.

In the unit, each person is responsible for a specific duty, and the on-duty staff are fixed.

So, he had to swap shifts in advance.

What could Lu Jing say?

Someone started preparing so early for her sake; it would be odd not to be moved.

"How many days off do you have?"

"Four days."

So, would this person leave before her when the time comes?

Lu Jing unconsciously pursed her lips,

"Oh," she acknowledged.

But the man heard the reluctance in the woman’s ’oh.’

"Already can’t bear it? Then, will you go back to Nanxi City with me?"

"No way!"

Of course, a hard-earned holiday should be spent properly at home with the family.

Why go back to Nanxi City so early?

"Really don’t want to?"

"Yes!"

"Alright then, heartless woman."

Again?

It sounds like she’s truly heartless.

But actually, it seems like it’s always Lu Jing who gets pinched, right?

No choice, her rank isn’t high enough to fight this old fox.

The two sat by the fountain for a good while, about half an hour, before they got up and went back to the car.

Ten minutes later, the car slowly stopped outside the Lu Mansion.

Lu Jing prepared to get out of the car to go home but was locked in:

"What’s up?"

"I still have two days of vacation, think about it, how should we spend them?"

Spend them?

"Do you mean traveling?"

"Yeah, it seems we haven’t really gone out to have fun before."

Indeed, neither now nor six years ago had they ever done so.

Lu Jing didn’t know whether to refuse:

"I’ll think about it."

"Okay!"

He didn’t force her or anything.

Lu Jing then got out of the car and after closing the door, she walked towards the gate.

’Beep beep’ someone honked the horn twice.

Lu Jing turned around and saw the man looking at her with a smile.

This gave her the feeling that she would never be able to escape him in this lifetime.

Lu Jing quickly picked up her pace and entered the gate without looking back.

Jiang Ye didn’t leave until he completely lost sight of the woman.

...

Lu Family.

Mr. Lu and Lu’s mother had already come home, but unlike usual, they didn’t go to their room to rest.

Sitting on opposite sofas, they were waiting for their daughter to return home.

So, when Lu Jing walked in and suddenly saw both of them, she was quite startled.

"Dad, Mom, why aren’t you asleep?"

"Sleep? How could we possibly sleep?"

Uh.

Indeed, their darling daughter had been whisked away by that wolfish lad; how could her parents sleep?

"Come here!"

"I’m changing my shoes."

"Hurry up and come here once you’re done!"

Clearly, the old couple was about to start grilling her.

Lu Jing pulled a face, her shoes already changed, and stepped forward.

Lu’s mother handed over a few wet wipes:

"Quickly wipe your hands."

"Thank you, Mom."

Pfft~

Lu’s mother was the typical hard-on-the-outside, soft-on-the-inside type.

After Lu Jing finished wiping her hands, Lu’s mother eagerly asked:

"What exactly is going on between you and that Jiang boy? There wasn’t time to ask you this morning, now spill the beans!"

Cough cough.

She thought if they didn’t ask they would let it slide.

But they were waiting for her at night.
