When Jiang Ye ca out, he saw a group of people chatting and laughing outside, and his mood instantly improved.
He approached with a smile:
"What are you talking about that’s so fun?" he asked.
Lu Jing, who was facing away, didn’t see him imdiately and was only taken aback when he heard the voice.
He turned his head to look:
"When did you co out?"
The Nurse Director and others were covering their mouths, giggling nonstop:
"We’ve been out for a while." she said.
Oh.
So, everyone was just laughing at ?
From a distance, Jiang Ye couldn’t hear clearly what everyone was saying, so he leaned in close to a woman and asked:
"What were you talking about, huh?"
His hot breath sprayed on her neck, making her skin crawl.
"Cough."
She moved back half a step uncomfortably and didn’t forget to glare.
This guy really, doesn’t he see that it’s broad daylight and there are people everywhere?
He may not care, but others do!
Luckily, the Nurse Director spoke up in ti:
"Mr. Jiang, we were talking about inviting you for dinner."
"Yes, yes, yes, and Mr. Hu and Mr. Huo too."
"Mr. Jiang, you can’t refuse, we’ve already discussed it with Doctor Lu."
Oh?
Jiang Ye then smiled at the woman beside him.
What could Lu Jing say?
He surely couldn’t make it too obvious.
Just as he was about to give a subtle eye signal, the Nurse Director swiftly pulled him away:
"Co on, co on, it’s about ti, let’s go eat."
Tonight’s dinner, everyone would definitely be able to enjoy.
Earlier, It had been tough, neither able to eat nor sleep well, worrying too much had even caused so of his hair to fall out, and he started breaking out.
Old Hu and Old Huo had just co out when Dr. Jia caught up with them.
"Hey, hey, hey, guys, what’s going on with you?"
The two were clueless, utterly confused.
But seeing Old Jiang also, they didn’t resist.
The police station was not far and there were several good restaurants around; they didn’t fuss much and just randomly picked a restaurant that looked decent.
"Welco, how many?"
The Nurse Director, holding onto Lu Jing’s arm, counted on her fingers:
"Eight."
"Okay, is this private room okay?"
"Yes, yes, that’s fine."
Having a private room was of course good; just the addition of Doctor Lu and the other two lawyers, one could tell they weren’t simple folks.
That’s why they chose this place; otherwise, they definitely would have dined sowhere more upscale.
Luckily, no one seed bothered or disparaging; everyone was smiling and looked friendly.
However, having seen these few in action during the afternoon eting, they couldn’t help feeling a bit intimidated.
This is probably where the ingrained concept of class hierarchy cos in.
As the old saying goes: "Those who travel different paths do not plan together."
They’re from different levels of society, normally they probably wouldn’t even co into contact.
When they got to the private room, Dr. Jia and the Nurse Director were the primary ones making forced conversation, as they really weren’t good at it, and the other two Little Nurses didn’t even lift their heads.
Eventually, it was Lu Jing who called everyone to order.
"Please, take a seat. Huo Lv, Mr. Hu, what would you like to drink?"
Cough, cough, cough.
The two responded with a series of coughs:
"Sister-in-law, no need, just call Xiao Huo."
The other quickly said:
"Yes, yes, just call Xiao Hu."
Old Jiang’s wife, these two didn’t dare to overstep.
How could Jiang Ye not know what they were thinking?
He glanced at them, then looked at his wife:
"Just call them Xiao Huo, Xiao Hu."
