CHAPTER 542: CHAPTER 542: ABILITY

Actually, with Lu Jing’s words, the issue had already dissipated in his heart.

"There’s really no problem, don’t mention it, they are our elders after all."

It was a bit inappropriate.

"Are you embarrassed by that?"

Cough.

"Just don’t go."

What else could Jiang Ye say?

"I’ll listen to you, but if you’re ever upset, please tell me in time. Don’t sulk like you did last night."

When he mentioned last night, Lu Jing couldn’t help but cough.

He still had the nerve to bring that up.

Initially, he had been upset and sulked.

But later, his mind couldn’t keep up with all the messy and trivial things.

His eyes uncontrollably started to roll towards a certain someone:

"Shut up!"

Why even mention it?

It’s really shameless!

"Okay, okay, I’ll shut up. Now hurry up and wash up, Auntie is already hurrying us."

Who’s to blame, really?

Lu Jing really wanted to bite that someone a few times, but he thought better of it.

Early in the morning, it was best not to provoke this extremely dangerous man.

Otherwise, the trouble would only be his.

"You go ahead, I’ll be right there."

Jiang Ye froze for two seconds, probably realizing something. He touched his nose sulkily and hurried off.

If he didn’t leave, was he waiting to be scolded or beaten?

Lu Jing watched the man quickly disappear and silently cursed him a few more times in his heart before stopping.

....

Ten minutes later, the two went downstairs.

Because of the delay, Lu’s mother had already served all the dishes and was just waiting for them to come down to eat.

"Mom, where’s Dad?"

"He went out early in the morning. He said not to worry about him and that he’ll be back at night."

Right.

Ever since Mr. Lu retired a while ago, his retirement life had been quite rich—always missing during the day. Every day, it was either one old friend calling or another, very busy indeed.

Lu’s mother got up from the sofa and came over to the dining area:

"Come on, it’s getting cold, I don’t know what you were dawdling for?"

In the end, she was just complaining.

Of course, Lu Jing wouldn’t delve into what they had been dawdling over. He coughed:

"I’m really hungry, let’s eat."

Jiang Ye heard his wife skillfully change the topic and couldn’t help but laugh.

Luckily, Lu’s mother didn’t continue, nor did she intend to.

Young people’s matters, they know in their hearts, and she, as an old person, didn’t need to worry so much.

Worrying about this and that could easily cause discontent among young people.

After all, when the children are grown, it’s time for the elders to let go.

....

The atmosphere during the meal was still very harmonious.

Lu’s mother didn’t eat much and soon left the table to busy herself with other things.

Only the two of them were left in the dining room.

Lu Jing slowly sipped his soup, watching the man next to him eat with relish.

He had to admit, he looked good.

Jiang Family’s children, how could they possibly lack manners?

Each one was as proper as could be measured with a ruler.

However, just when they were about done eating, a phone call came through.

Jiang Ye put down his chopsticks, answered the call, and put it on speaker:

"What’s up?"

"Bro, where are you?"

"Where do you think I am?"

Oh, it turned out to be Jiang Huai.

Jiang Ye’s response made it obvious.

On the phone, Jiang Huai of course understood:

"Oh, oh, oh, at sister-in-law’s house?"

"Get to the point."

Jiang Yekou wasn’t very patient.

Not even his own younger brother was an exception.

In this world, the only person who could make Jiang Ye exceptionally patient was probably Lu Jing alone!
