"Mom, how did you find out?" he countered.
On the phone, Lu’s mother sighed,
"Here in Jing City, I’m afraid there’s no one who doesn’t know."
Lu Jing’s eyes widened,
"What?"
Could it really be... that shocking?
When had he beco so influential?
Lu’s mother sighed a few more tis before she continued,
"Is that child really yours?
Jingjing, mom isn’t trying to scold you, but you need to tell mom the truth.
If it’s true, bring her back for us to see.
Your aunt and I have both seen her pictures. Isn’t that little girl pretty?"
There was a clanging sound in Lu Jing’s head,
"Wait a second, mom, where did you see the pictures?"
"It started from the group chat, then everyone started sharing it, your cousin was the first to receive it."
As she spoke, Lu’s mother sent the screenshot of the photo over.
After seeing the photo, how could Lu Jing not guess who had caused this commotion?
"Mom, the child is not mine, I’ll explain the details after I get off work."
Hearing it was not his child, Lu’s mother seed a bit disappointed on the phone,
"Why not?"
Lu Jing quickly hung up, worried that continuing the conversation would likely lead to his mother’s various strategies for rushing him into marriage.
However, he promptly made another phone call.
The phone rang several tis before it was answered,
"Hello?"
"Awan, I’m sorry that Yaoyao was exposed because of ."
The person who had sounded lazy on the other end of the phone suddenly perked up.
"What? How was she exposed?"
Lu Jing briefly explained the situation, and on the phone, Dai Changwan’s teeth ground audibly.
"Gu Jianren again?
Great, this ti, I really need to et her in person!
To see if she has grown three heads and six arms to have her presence felt everywhere.
But Lu Lu, don’t be too nervous, my family has never cared about what I do abroad, and Xiang Zheng has never publicly exposed Yaoyao, so there shouldn’t be any trouble."
Finally, Lu Jing breathed a sigh of relief,
"Where are you now? Yaoyao said you ran away from ho again?"
"? I’m at the airport, of course, I just got off the plane, and here cos your call."
Lu Jing laughed,
"Back to Nanxi City? Didn’t you say it would be a while longer?"
"Can’t I miss you?"
"Alright, alright, then I’ll get back to work."
"Okay, let’s et up tonight, didn’t I promise to introduce you to so handso guys?"
Lu Jing felt like declining, but Dai Changwan seed to anticipate his response and didn’t give him a chance to speak,
"Lu Lu, if you dare not show up, I’ll go straight to your dorm to find you!"
Cough cough.
After hanging up the phone this ti, Lu Jing threw himself into his work, not touching his phone for the entire morning.
Until...
He was about to head to the cafeteria for lunch when, upon stepping out of the office, soone called out to him,
"Doctor Lu, your takeaway."
Why was there another takeaway?
Lu Jing stood frozen for two seconds before he approached.
On the nurse station’s table lay the takeaway that had arrived just five minutes before.
He glanced at the order information: great, it was soone’s handiwork again!
What was he trying to do, really?
It was incomprehensible.
With so many people around the nurse station, Lu Jing couldn’t make a scene. He kept a stern face as he picked up the bag and returned to his office.
Luckily, there was no one in the office at the ti, as they had all gone to the cafeteria for lunch.
After setting down the bag, he didn’t waste any ti and imdiately made an angry phone call.
The sound of clashing bowls and dishes could be heard once it connected, and as expected, the other party was likely in the cafeteria.
"Need for sothing? Wait a sec. It’s too noisy here; I’ll step out to talk."
Lu Jing’s rage that reached the tip of his throat had to be swallowed back again.
