Chapter 623: Chapter 623

Uh, I really didn’t pay attention to that.

Jiang Yuan had just moved over and it wouldn’t have been nice to just barge in and rummage through her brother and sister-in-law’s things, right?

How thoughtless would one have to be to do such things?

"I didn’t see it, but can I take a look?"

Lu Jing couldn’t help but chuckle,

"Feel free, what’s there to it?"

And if there’s anything she likes, as a sister-in-law, I’d definitely gift it without a second thought.

"Hehe, okay then, I’ll make sure to take a good look when I go back today."

As for what’s inside, Lu Jing wasn’t too clear on the specifics, since Jiang Ye had prepared it all.

That guy probably just had someone send over the entire series in a package, right?

Turns out, that was exactly the case. Get full chapters from novelꜰire.net

"See if there’s anything you like here?"

As soon as Lu Jing spoke up, Jiang Yuan immediately pointed over,

It was pink, adorned with various floral and leaf patterns, looking very cute.

Even Lu Jing felt charmed by it and waved over to an employee not too far away.

Once the person came over, he said,

"Could you please bring that bag over?"

"Sure, sure, just a moment, please."

The staff always had to put on gloves before touching those bags or accessories.

So, it took a brief one or two minutes.

As the saying goes, a beloved item is priceless, so waiting for a bit certainly wouldn’t be an issue.

When the bag was handed to Jiang Yuan, she immediately fell in love with it and slung it over her shoulder.

"How about it, sis?" she asked.

Lu Jing nodded in approval,

"It suits you perfectly."

A young girl like her is just right for these delicate and tender items.

Older folks simply can’t pull off the same effect.

Jiang Yuan, excited, even twirled in front of the mirror.

Suddenly, just at that moment, a woman’s voice rang out,

Jiang Yuan stopped twirling and her previously joyous face instantly fell.

Seeing his sister-in-law’s expression change, Lu Jing knew there was bad blood between them.

With a pull, he positioned his sister-in-law behind him, protective like a hen with her chick, and then turned to Jiang Yuan to ask,

"Xiao Yuan, who are they?"

Jiang Yuan pursed her lips,

"Classmates from school."

Her tone was very cold.

If you listened closely, you could even detect a hint of anger.

Now, he was even more certain.

His gaze towards the two girls became sharp.

Anyone familiar with Jiang Ye would have been shocked to see this resemblance.

Wasn’t this just like Devil Jiang?

It seemed that the apple didn’t fall far from the tree.

The couple was truly cut from the same cloth.

"Do you girls need something from Xiao Yuan?"

The two girls were taken aback for a moment before they collected themselves.

The leader even glared at Lu Jing,

"Excuse me, lady, but who are you?"

Fortunately, Lu Jing wasn’t bothered in the slightest, remaining expressionless.

But Jiang Yuan was not pleased – a typical defensive stance: you can say anything about me, but you must not disrespect my family!

"Li Qian, you better watch your mouth!"

Li Qian was the leader, seemingly a very arrogant young lady.

"Jiang Yuan, who do you think you are? Daring to lecture me, huh?"

Lu Jing couldn’t help but wonder if his sister-in-law was experiencing bullying at school.

He pulled Jiang Yuan back once again,

"Miss Li, right? If there’s an issue, you can speak directly to me!"

His niece, of course, needed his protection.

How could he let others bully her?

Li Qian had already sized up Lu Jing, confident she had never seen him in their circles, and, for a moment, lost any caution she might have had.

"Speak to you? Do I even know you?"
