Chapter 316: Chapter 316: Doesn’t Seem Like That Kind of Scum

Making such a scene at the entrance of the fire brigade, Jiang Ye could hardly be pleased!

But for now, there was no need for Jiang Ye, the brigade captain, to step in, so she couldn’t be bothered to deal with it.

Just then, Lu Jing came out, still wrapped in a bathrobe, wiping his hair with a dry towel.

He could vaguely hear some discussions coming from downstairs, but couldn’t make out the details:

"What’s going on?" he asked aloud.

Jiang Ye didn’t really want to talk about it:

"It’s nothing, let’s eat."

Lu Jing wasn’t one for gossip either, nodded his head, and casually placed the damp towel on the cabinet next to him before pulling out a chair and sitting down at the dining table.

Jiang Ye’s cooking skills were indeed not bad, a dish of tomato scrambled eggs, a dish of stir-fried zucchini strips, and a plate of boiled shrimp that all looked quite appetizing.

As Lu Jing was looking, Jiang Ye had already precisely placed a shrimp into the woman’s mouth:

"Taste good?" she asked.

It had a kind of expectant look, almost begging for praise.

Ugh.

After chewing a few times:

"Not bad!"

The answer was given.

Sure enough, receiving affirmations from his beloved woman, the man was elated!

Afterward, the two of them ate happily, and the atmosphere at home was very good.

It was just that this fine atmosphere didn’t last long before it was interrupted by an urgent knock at the door.

"Who is it so late at night?" Lu Jing muttered softly.

The man put down his chopsticks and got up:

"I’ll go open the door."

Outside.

As soon as the door opened, there was Xiao Tang’s face, crying like a pear blossom battered by rain.

Jiang Yekou wasn’t good at dealing with this, and quickly called to the woman at the dining table:

"Wife, come here a minute."

Lu Jing, puzzled as he was, still got up immediately.

Upon seeing Xiao Tang, he was quite surprised:

"Xiao Tang? Why are you crying? Where’s Lai Xingchen?"

Jiang Ye actively moved aside:

"Come in first."

With such a commotion, the neighbors upstairs, downstairs, and next door eventually all came out.

Lu Jing led Xiao Tang inside the house, knowing that he couldn’t possibly continue eating.

Fortunately, they had both eaten almost enough.

"Doctor Lu, sob sob sob..."

"I’m here, I’m here, don’t cry, what happened exactly?"

Lu Jing felt like a monk puzzled by a riddle, clueless.

"Sob sob sob, Doctor Lu, Lai Xingchen... he... he..."

Lai Xingchen?

Weren’t they fine just before?

How did it suddenly turn into this?

"What happened to him? Did he bully you? If he dares, don’t worry, I will take care of it for you!"

With those words, Xiao Tang cried even harder, uncontrollably so.

Jiang Ye came out of the kitchen with her brows tightly furrowed.

Forget about washing the dishes, it’s better to go down and find someone.

After all, it’s quite embarrassing for a grown man to stay at home.

With Jiang Ye there, Xiao Tang would probably be even more uncomfortable.

Without saying much, with one glance, Lu Jing understood. He nodded silently and Jiang Ye opened the door and left.

Xiao Tang might have been crying too hard to notice the noise of the door opening and closing.

"Alright, alright, just tell me what happened," urged Lu Jing, while reaching for some tissue paper from the coffee table to gently wipe the tears from Xiao Tang’s face.

"Doctor Lu, Lai Xingchen is a cheater!"

Huh?

"A cheater?"

"Yes, he has a girlfriend!

Sob sob sob, Doctor Lu, I’ve been the third party!"

What the heck?

Lu Jing was quite shaken. This... can’t be true, can it?

"Xiao Tang, is there some misunderstanding?"

Based on the interactions over time, Lu Jing felt that Lai Xingchen didn’t seem like that kind of scumbag!
