Around 10:40, Jiang Ye's call came through.
At this time, Lu Jing and company were still in the coffee shop.
"Who is it?"
"Cough, Jiang Ye."
"Oh, it's your man, answer it."
Hiss!
Lu Jing coughed awkwardly before answering the phone:
"Hello?"
"Where are you? No one's home."
"You're back?"
"Yeah, I've finished my errands."
Lu Jing took a sip of coffee:
"I'm at the coffee shop near the entrance. Just come here."
Although Jiang Ye wondered why his wife was feeling so refined today,
he didn't ask too much on the phone:
"Alright, I'm coming over."
And with that, the call ended.
Who knew that the moment he looked up again, he would be greeted by Niuniu's beaming, excited smile.
"What's up?" she asked.
"Nothing much, I'm just curious. You used to dislike him so much as a kid, always avoiding him. How did you end up together when you grew up?"
Cough cough cough.
"That was all child's play, okay?"
Growing up, of course, things changed.
