Chapter 378: Chapter 378: Checking the Phone?

"Hotel? That’s fine, I just flew back from abroad, so I won’t bother you guys. See you tomorrow."

Jiang’s mother was quite easy-going and had a bold personality.

Jiang Ye hummed in agreement, seeing that the bathroom was almost ready:

"Mom, I’m hanging up now."

"Alright, alright, alright."

After the call ended, Lu Jing had already finished his shower and came out from inside.

Sure enough, his whole body felt much more comfortable.

He said to Jiang Ye:

"I’m done, your turn."

The man smiled, stretched out his hand to embrace her, and held her tight.

"Wife!"

Lu Jing wrapped her arms around the man’s lower back:

"What’s up?"

Pfft!

"What do you mean ’what’s up’?, Can’t I just hold you for a bit?"

Lu Jing also started to smile:

"Sure, who said you couldn’t?

But shouldn’t you take a shower now?"

Although the clothes were new, they were from a marketplace; it was obvious that many people had tried them on, and the synthetic material stank strong, the quality not so great.

They were fine for an emergency, but if there was a chance not to wear them, then better not to.

After wearing them for just an hour, Lu Jing’s back was already covered with several red spots, itchy and somewhat sore, probably from an allergy.

Jiang Ye was actually not very comfortable either, the Young Master of Jiang Family had never worn market-bought clothes!

Even during missions, Jiang Ye always tried to avoid such clothes.

When there was no choice, he just had to endure it.

After all, special circumstances required special treatment.

"I’m off to shower. Wife, do you want to help out?"

Cough cough.

"Beat it!"

She pushed the man away with one shove and quickly stepped back several paces.

What was he thinking, making lewd jokes at this time?

Lu Jing rolled her eyes at the man as if they were free, and he shrugged his shoulders before finally heading to the bathroom.

Although it was getting late, Lu Jing wasn’t feeling sleepy at all right now.

After all, she had just been through a kidnapping and even witnessed death; how could there be no ripple in her emotions?

She had thrown away her phone earlier and hadn’t had time to buy a new one yet.

But there, on the large bed, the man’s phone lay carelessly.

Hmm.

Whether it was now or six years ago, Lu Jing had never checked Jiang Ye’s phone.

In fact, she barely touched it.

It wasn’t that she didn’t care, but both of them truly trusted each other from the bottom of their hearts.

Usually, if she needed to use it, she would ask in advance.

Now, with him not around, Lu Jing hesitated a bit.

But this hesitation didn’t last long before she cast it aside.

She walked up confidently, picked up the phone, and unlocked it.

The password was always those few numbers, never changed.

Indeed, it unlocked straight away.

Lu Jing felt a sigh of relief in her heart.

Then she didn’t really sneak a look at anything and started browsing the news on the web page.

Looking through, there was no news about her being kidnapped today on the hot search list.

Theoretically, that was unlikely.

So, it surely must have been deliberately suppressed.

It didn’t take much thought; it was either Jiang Ye or Lu Yan who did it!

Lu Jing herself didn’t like making everything public knowledge, so this outcome was quite satisfactory.

As she scrolled through the news, the man had already finished showering and came out, loosely tied in the hotel’s bathrobe, leaning against the wall:

"What are you looking at?" he asked with a smile.

Lu Jing looked up at the sound, then shot back:

"Checking in!"

Pfft~

The man immediately laughed out loud.

"Oh? Is that so? Did you find anything?"

He took steps closer.

Lu Jing’s mouth twitched:

"Don’t you know very well whether there’s anything to find?" she retorted.
