CHAPTER 549: CHAPTER 549: CLEANLINESS IS STILL UP TO ONESELF

At most, she would just faint and soon come to.

If that didn’t work, then props would do the trick.

As a doctor, Lu Jing wouldn’t idly stand by and let this happen, his professional ethics wouldn’t allow it.

But the man had already made his move, pivoting on his foot, he picked up a bottle of mineral water from nearby.

Lu Jing was surprised, only to see the man twist open the mineral water bottle and pour the water directly onto the head of the woman on the ground.

This...

"Jiang Ye, what are you doing?"

It was hard to believe.

Did the words ’cherish the fragrance and pity the jade’ not exist in his dictionary?

Ahem.

They did, but they were selective.

Ordinary people couldn’t enjoy such special treatment.

The man continued to empty the bottle until he softly said, "Well, she’s awake."

???

Lu Jing looked down and saw that the woman had indeed woken up.

At this moment, the crowd outside had also realized what was happening:

"What the heck is going on here?"

"This scene, it’s obvious, isn’t it? She’s trying to seduce Young Master Jiang, right?"

Stripped bare, what else could it be if not an attempt at ’art’?

"Sss, who is that woman?"

"Don’t know, not familiar, but look closely, she seems to resemble..."

"Oh my, she looks like Lu Jing!"

Someone exclaimed excitedly; they were so loud, how could Lu Jing not hear them unless he were deaf?

His gaze uncontrollably shifted to the woman’s face, scrutinizing her closely.

It was not important to look, but upon looking, he did see something.

He frowned and looked up.

No need for further words, the man instantly understood.

"Not alike!"

He gave a decisive answer.

Jiang Ye didn’t find the resemblance, how could he not know what his own wife looked like?

As for this woman, she was but a pale imitation. It was obvious at first glance.

Although Jiang Ye had given an answer, Lu Jing kept glancing at the woman on the ground: no traces of artificial tampering, so she really just looked like that.

Not to say a perfect resemblance, but there was certainly a similarity of four or five points out of ten.

For a moment, there was confusion.

Could this woman possibly be a distant relative of the Lu Family?

If so, then... what an embarrassment.

The host family had already hurried over, originally in high spirits, only to have their moods now completely ruined.

"Young Master Jiang, Mrs. Jiang, we apologize, our hospitality was lacking."

The desire for self-preservation was full-throttle.

The head of the host family came with bodyguards, and at a glance, two guards stepped forward to take away the woman, who was either ashamed or stupefied, from the scene.

As for how she would be treated afterward, that was unclear.

Nobody dared to plead on her behalf at the scene.

In such a situation, they’d rather flee than foolishly offer to intercede, right?

Could it be considered collusion?

If so, even if it didn’t kill them, a significant punishment would be likely.

After all, the woman intended to scheme against none other than Young Master of the Jiang Family.

Lu Jing glanced at Jiang Ye, naturally noticing the shirt on Jiang Ye stained red by wine:

"Would you like to change your shirt?" he asked.

With this question, the atmosphere, silent and dreadful, finally eased.

"No need."

Who knew, the man flatly refused.

Hmm?

"Dirty!"

This ’dirty’ wasn’t referring to the wine-stained shirt, but to the clothes in the room.

Simply put, it was disdain.

Since that woman had been in here for so long, who knew if she had touched any of the clothes on the racks?

Therefore, Jiang Ye would rather wear his drenched shirt than change.

Yes, his own clothes were cleaner, after all!
