Chapter 78: Chapter 78 Jiang Ye Returns

"All right, all right, stop overthinking it. Anyway, the Jiang family has already handled the matter. What do you feel like eating tonight?"

At this moment, Dai Changwan’s impression of Jiang Ye had improved somewhat.

"I’m good with anything; it’s up to you."

"Then, let’s have some light broth."

Mainly, she was considering her best friend’s health, as there were many things she couldn’t eat.

Eventually, the car stopped in front of a mushroom and rabbit meat soup hot pot restaurant.

The Chinese sure love to eat; come mealtime, people are queuing up everywhere.

Fortunately, the two didn’t have to wait long, and they got a table after a few minutes.

"Where’s Yaoyao?"

"At school. It’s a boarding school; they get a break once a month."

Hiss~

Hearing what Dai Changwan said, Lu Jing frowned deeply:

"You sent Yaoyao to a boarding school? She’s still so young."

Dai Changwan shook her head repeatedly:

"It wasn’t me. It was Xiang Zheng’s arrangement!

He said it’s to make do for now, and once he sorts out the messy affairs abroad, he’ll shift his work focus back to the domestic scene and transfer her to another school then."

Sure enough, the mess at the Xiang Family was indeed a headache.

And it always came with risks.

That’s why Yaoyao hadn’t been exposed to the public since birth.

Even now, back in the country, things at Dai Changwan’s home aren’t so simple; there’s been a heated dispute over the inheritance.

It’s understandable.

"So, it’s all right. As long as you, her parents, know you’re making things difficult for Yaoyao. But Xiang Zheng is planning to shift his work focus here?"

Dai Changwan hummed and hawed:

"Right."

Tsk tsk.

Lu Jing laughed:

"Is he crossing the Pacific Ocean to pursue his wife?" he joked.

Hiss~

Instantly, Dai Changwan became as flustered as a stepped-on rooster, her face flushed and neck thick:

"Don’t talk nonsense. That’s not it at all. His business strategy has been planned out long ago, and has nothing to do with me."

Pfft, still arguing?

Knowing such a secret business plan, and it’s supposedly unrelated?

Still, Lu Jing didn’t tease any further. Everyone understood.

Miss Dai was just being stubborn, simply affected.

She believed that Xiang Zheng didn’t marry her out of love but because of Yaoyao’s existence, he had no choice.

And recently, they had been through a divorce lawsuit and custody battle.

But what was the outcome?

Weren’t mother and child both meticulously taken care of by Xiang Zheng?

And both seemed to be enjoying it.

If one is willing to endure and the other to stick it out, it’s not for outsiders to comment.

At this moment, the waiter brought over a large pot of broth:

"You can start eating now."

"Okay, thank you."

....

A week had passed since Lu Jing had parted ways with Miss Dai at the rabbit meat soup hot pot restaurant.

During this week, besides taking the opportunity to return to his dorm to get some clothes to change into, he continued to stay at the hotel.

Finally, Jia Yuqing’s boyfriend had left.

It was said that he had suddenly received a work assignment and had to go on a business trip to a nearby city.

How tough it must be~

That day, as the end of the work shift was looming.

Just as Lu Jing stepped out of the operating room, he had barely taken a few steps when he abruptly stopped.

"Huh, Doctor Lu?"

Ahem.

"Dr. Yu, what’s this about?"

He didn’t even glance at the figure standing next to him.

Dr. Yu quickly explained:

"Mr. Jiang’s hand has recovered well, and it’s time to remove the cast."

It hadn’t even been a month, had it?

However, since Dr. Yu had already checked and said the condition looked good, it definitely shouldn’t be a problem.

Lu Jing nodded:

"Oh, then you guys are busy; I think I left something in the operating room, I need to go get it."

With that, he turned sharply and left.

He walked briskly, as if afraid of being called back.

Not that he was feeling guilty or anything, he just didn’t know how to face the situation for the time being.
