CHAPTER 122: CHAPTER 122: WHO IS THE MAN BESIDE HER

"What are you doing?" Sang Yu pushed Jiang Jingming, her eyes still looking towards the backyard,

afraid that Wei Lai and Xu Ru’an might suddenly appear, which would be very awkward.

"Didn’t you want to comfort me?" Jiang Jingming tightly held Sang Yu, making it impossible for her to break free.

"Let me go first." Sang Yu was nearly dying of anxiety.

Didn’t he know there were others in the house?

"I don’t want to," this was supposed to be their own world.

"So what do I have to do for you to let me go?" Sang Yu anxiously looked towards the backdoor and asked.

"Kiss me." Jiang Jingming said.

"Really?" Sang Yu couldn’t quite believe Jiang Jingming’s request was that simple.

Jiang Jingming: "When have I ever lied to you?"

Sang Yu looked at Jiang Jingming’s serious demeanor and said: "Okay, you said it, kiss you and you’ll let me go."

Jiang Jingming nodded and leaned his face closer.

Sang Yu glanced at the backdoor once, then quickly moved towards the man’s handsome face to kiss.

Just as she was about to make contact with his face, Jiang Jingming turned his head.

And just like that, their lips touched.

Sang Yu’s pupils instantly dilated, and just in that moment of surprise, Jiang Jingming had already advanced further.

Sang Yu was tightly held, unable to move.

Who knows how much time passed before Sang Yu was finally released.

Her face was unnaturally flushed, with a bit of moisture on her lips, looking like petals glistening with dew.

"What are you doing?" Sang Yu pushed Jiang Jingming away and whispered: "They’re still here, what if we’re discovered?"

Jiang Jingming looked satisfied and said: "Let them see, they shouldn’t be here in the first place. I’ve already asked Auntie to find Wei Lai a match."

Sang Yu looked at Jiang Jingming in surprise.

Jiang Jingming: "He’s been idle every day, and besides, he’s not young anymore. It’s time to find someone."

Since when did he become the type to rush people into relationships?

"Forget it, I’m not talking to you anymore, I’m going out."

Sang Yu tidied up her messy clothes before heading out.

Meanwhile, in the backyard, Wei Lai and Xu Ru’an were having a delightful conversation.

Both being very talkative, they quickly hit it off once a topic emerged.

When Sang Yu arrived, the two were still chatting away with no intention of stopping.

Seeing this, Sang Yu breathed a sigh of relief; luckily they were engrossed in their conversation, and the incident inside likely went unnoticed.

After a while, the two finally ended their conversation.

Xu Ru’an looked at Sang Yu with curiosity and asked: "Sang Yu, did you eat chili peppers?"

Sang Yu was puzzled: "No, why?"

"Then why are your lips so red?" Xu Ru’an stared fixedly at Sang Yu’s mouth.

Sang Yu’s face immediately turned red. How could she have forgotten.

With Jiang Jingming being so forceful, her lips were definitely red now.

"Maybe, maybe I bit them myself." Sang Yu averted her eyes, feeling a bit guilty.

Wei Lai looked at Sang Yu meaningfully but said nothing.

Xu Ru’an still seemed unconvinced and wanted to take a closer look.

Sang Yu suddenly stood up: "Are you hungry? It’s about time, I’ll go make some food. You guys stay and eat here."

Xu Ru’an’s attention was indeed diverted, and she declined: "Forget it, no need, Wei Lai and I made plans, we’re going to a restaurant to eat."

Sang Yu was puzzled: "Since when did you two become so close?"

Xu Ru’an replied honestly: "Just now."

Wei Lai also said: "Sis-in-law, although your cooking is delicious, today is my day to make new friends, so I’m going out with my new friend to eat."

Saying that, the two headed towards the living room.

In the living room, Jiang Jingming was still sitting there, but compared to his earlier appearance, his complexion was much better now.

"Brother Jiang."

"Brother Jingming."

Jiang Jingming stood up: "You’re leaving?"

Wei Lai: "Yeah, we don’t want to disturb your time with sis-in-law."

Sang Yu’s face turned red, and Jiang Jingming gave Wei Lai a satisfied look, thinking it was right to have Auntie find him a match.

So sensible, he should find someone.

Xu Ru’an waved at Sang Yu: "I’ll come look for you next time to hang out."

Sang Yu nodded, her face flushed: "Okay."

Jiang Jingming glanced at Xu Ru’an, realizing he forgot to ask Auntie to find someone for Xu Ru’an too.

After the two left, Sang Yu glared at Jiang Jingming: "You cook yourself then."

Having said that, she stomped upstairs.

Jiang Jingming chuckled.

He turned and went into the kitchen.

...

"Is there any particular restaurant you want to go to?" Wei Lai asked after getting into the car.

Xu Ru’an thought for a moment and replied: "I don’t dine out often, so you choose one."

Wei Lai: "Alright, since I got back from abroad, my friends have taken me to quite a few places, and I found one that’s not bad, just a bit far. Do you mind?"

Xu Ru’an: "I don’t mind, let’s go."

Wei Lai: "Great, then let’s set off."

Wei Lai drove with Xu Ru’an to the restaurant.

Since they hadn’t made a reservation, they had to wait for a private room.

Xu Ru’an and Wei Lai sat on the first floor and chatted for a bit.

Wei Lai talked to Xu Ru’an about many things from abroad. Xu Ru’an loves new experiences, but due to Xu Cheng’s job, she can’t go abroad temporarily.

The things Wei Lai mentioned were just enough to satisfy her curiosity.

Meanwhile, Lu Yuan and some friends also arrived at the restaurant entrance.

"I heard the food here is good. Perfect timing, it’s Old Wu’s birthday today, let’s eat here."

"I’ve eaten here before, the food is good, but it’s a bit far."

"Driving just takes half an hour, not too far."

"Let’s go in first, I’m starving."

"What’s your hurry? Old Wu hasn’t even said anything yet."

Old Wu was a very honest-looking man, he laughed: "I think it’s good, you’re always good with food, following you can’t be wrong."

Old Wu patted the man’s shoulder.

The man looked proud: "That’s right, then let’s go in."

"Come on, let’s go in."

At the entrance, Lu Yuan suddenly stopped.

"What’s wrong, Old Lu?" The man beside Lu Yuan asked when he saw him stop.

Lu Yuan looked up, but the person was already gone. Could it have been a mistake?

Lu Yuan: "It’s nothing, I thought I saw someone familiar."

"Someone familiar? Who? Let’s go together."

Lu Yuan shook his head: "No need, she seems to have company."

The man shrugged: "Alright then."

Lu Yuan and his friends had booked a private room in advance, so they informed the server and went straight there.

Lu Yuan’s mind kept revisiting that fleeting silhouette.

If he wasn’t mistaken, it was Xu Ru’an, but who was the man beside her?

Moreover, judging by her expression, she seemed quite happy.

For some reason, this made Lu Yuan feel very uncomfortable.
