Chapter 382: Chapter 382: If your brother and I fall into the river, who would you save?

They shot three more times, and finally got it right.

The two stood outside the Civil Affairs Bureau, holding two freshly issued red marriage books, both somewhat in disbelief that it was real.

Lu Jing thought: Had he really gotten married?

While Jiang Ye thought: Damn, after so many years, I finally got him completely!

"Uh, back to the hotel?"

The man nodded:

"Yes!"

It was still very early, not even two minutes to eight o’clock.

Heading back early, they could catch some more sleep.

However, neither of them had anticipated what would happen next.

As soon as they got out of the taxi, they ran into Lu Yan coming back from his morning run.

Lu Yan hadn’t expected to see them coming down from a taxi first thing in the morning, thinking: Didn’t these two return to the hotel in the middle of last night?

"Where have you been?" he asked word by word, his voice deep.

Lu Jing was about to speak, but Jiang Ye, quicker, voiced first:

"Brother Yan, running?"

Lu Yan showed a ’are you blind?’ expression, then turned to look at his sister:

"I’m asking you, where did you go this early in the morning?"

Cough, cough.

Lu Jing coughed:

"Brother, well, we..."

It was a bit embarrassing to say it out loud.

But, Lu Jing didn’t need to say anything else.

Because someone had already taken the initiative to pull out those two red books from his pocket and hand them over to Lu Yan.

Upon seeing them, Lu Yan’s pupils noticeably dilated.

His fists clenched tightly, making a cracking sound, and his forehead veins bulged.

Goodness, so they had run off to get registered this morning?

Hah!

"Brother!"

"You keep quiet, Lao Si, come with me."

Tsk tsk.

That tone was obviously unfriendly.

"Brother, I’ll head back to the room first."

"Okay, go."

The way he spoke to his sister was nothing like just now; instead, it was quite gentle.

Not even trying to hide the differential treatment.

Lu Jing promptly slipped away, not even looking back once, and decisively rushed into the hotel lobby.

Jiang Ye, seeing the woman ruthlessly leave him behind and run, wore an expression full of helplessness mixed with indulgence.

He didn’t manage to hide it in time, and Lu Yan saw it.

"Come here!"

Jiang Ye trotted along behind the imposing figure of Father-in-law, and where the two went after that is unknown?

Anyway, it probably wasn’t anything serious, so it wasn’t worth meddling in.

....

After returning to the room, Lu Jing laid down and quickly fell asleep.

When he woke up, it was almost noon.

He saw the man sitting at the desk beside him, holding the marriage certificate and occasionally bursting into silly laughter.

Uh.

"Jiang Ye?" he called out quietly.

The man, hearing the sound, looked over:

"You awake?"

Only then did Lu Jing notice a bruise on the man’s chin, which wasn’t there when they had left in the morning.

Obviously, it was the work of Lu Yan.

"You and my brother?"

Jiang Ye didn’t hide it:

"Yeah, your man got beaten up by your brother again!"

Sigh~

While saying this, he got up and walked over.

Lu Jing also sat up, and as the man approached, he moved closer to inspect:

"It’s okay, just a superficial injury, it’ll heal in a few days."

Pfft.

"Wife, don’t you feel distressed for me?"

Seriously?

Lu Jing really wanted to roll his eyes:

"You and my brother fighting is nothing new, right? My brother must have gotten some bruises too?"

Cough, cough.

That was definitely the case.

Neither of them was weak, so it wasn’t normal if they didn’t get some bruises.

But, Jiang Ye wasn’t about to let it go so easily this time, his body leaning in closer, head lowering more:

"Wife, if both Brother Yan and I fell into the river, who would you save?"
