Chapter 263: Chapter 263: Are We Going to Play an Escape Room Game?

Dudu dudu...

The call had been unilaterally hung up by Lu Jing.

"Mom~"

Lu’s mother laughed:

"What’s there to be shy about? He’s right, isn’t she your future mother-in-law?"

Right.

It seemed that the older generation really was more liberal than the younger one!

Lu Jing was stumped and for a while didn’t know what to say:

"Mom!"

"Alright already, since you’re up, don’t go back to sleep. Come down quickly and eat."

"Okay."

...

Breakfast was lavish, and Lu Jing was still eating when Jiang Yuan rushed in:

"Sister Lu!"

Um.

Lu’s mother asked, "Xiao Yuan, have you eaten yet?"

"Good morning, Auntie, I’ve eaten already."

Lu Jing smiled warmly:

"Then would you like some more?"

Seeing Jiang Yuan repeatedly waving her hands:

"No need, no need, Sister Lu, you’re not busy today, are you?"

"No."

Currently, there really was nothing going on.

Jiang Yuan scooted closer:

"Sister Lu, come with me to a place."

Seemed like she mentioned this yesterday; was she making good on that today?

Cough cough.

"Sure, wait for me a moment, I’ll be ready soon."

"There’s no rush, Sister Lu, take your time eating."

Though she said that, Lu Jing still sped up her eating.

After all, someone was waiting right here, better not to keep them waiting.

What if it was something important?

Five minutes later, she hastily finished eating, went upstairs to change into a casual outfit of a T-shirt and jeans.

"Xiao Yuan, let’s go."

At the door, she switched into a pair of white sneakers, grabbed her phone, and a bag.

"Auntie, Xiao Yuan and I are heading out."

Lu’s mother nodded:

"Go ahead, call us if you need anything."

There probably wouldn’t be any issues.

And even if there were, it’s not like they would immediately call their parents, right?

They weren’t kids anymore.

...

Twenty minutes passed, and the Jiang family’s driver parked outside a club.

"Xiao Yuan, why are we here?"

Jiang Yuan clung to Lu Jing’s arm:

"Cough cough, we’re here to play an escape room game!"

What?

Escape room?

Though Lu Jing hadn’t played before, she had heard a lot about it and had a rough idea.

What she couldn’t understand was why Jiang Yuan made it seem so secretive just for this?

"Ah, Sister Lu, I’m just scared, I wouldn’t dare to come otherwise."

Lu Jing’s mouth twitched:

"So how come you dared to come today?"

"Everyone is playing, I had to try it at least once, and besides, you’re a doctor, you must be brave!"

Who says?

Who says doctors are necessarily brave?

Lu Jing was amused yet helpless, but, having come all this way, they couldn’t just leave.

Oh well, might as well play along with the young girl once.

As for whether she’d be scared, she’d find out once inside.

Jiang Yuan held onto Lu Jing’s arm the whole way inside, using a currently popular phrase online: clumsy yet enthusiastic.

Sweating...

"Xiao Yuan, you’re holding on too tight."

It was choking her.

"Oh oh oh, sorry, Sister Lu."

As she spoke, she relaxed her grip a bit.

But she still hadn’t completely let go.

...

Meanwhile, Jiang Ye had arrived just after the two left the Lu Mansion.

Then the mother-in-law informed him that they had left a moment ago.

Now, he could only drive around aimlessly, as he couldn’t reach them by phone at all!

Finally, through a post his younger sister had shared on social media that morning, he found a lead.

Escape room?

The two of them were quite bold to try that.

Jiang Ye laughed, then entered the name of the escape room into his GPS; it was only a five-minute drive.
