CHAPTER 547: CHAPTER 547: THE UNFAMILIAR WOMAN

The party wasn’t entirely filled with strangers.

Look, someone soon called out:

"Lu Jing, over here this way!"

"Come over!"

The two girls who called out were quite familiar from childhood, just not as close as he was with Niuniu from the Leng Family.

Lu Jing stepped forward:

"Long time no see."

"Indeed, it’s been a while, last saw you abroad."

"Not me, I saw you on your little nephew’s hundredth-day celebration, but that’s also been almost half a year."

So much had happened in half a year.

The most unexpected thing was: the Lu Family’s daughter was now with the Young Master of the Jiang Family!

The young people weren’t so gossipy or curious, and they didn’t pester him with endless questions.

Lu Jing felt relieved; now, he feared the most being asked again about his relationship with Jiang Ye.

It should be rare now for anyone not to know, but many would still ask, which Lu Jing didn’t understand.

Well, people’s curiosity for gossip was certainly overwhelming.

After all, taming the Crown Prince of the Jiang Family was no easy feat.

In the entire Jing City circle, who dared say their family never thought about sending their daughter to the Crown Prince’s side?

We’re talking about the Jiang Family!

Not some small-time family or just any wealthy household.

They were the top tier among the top-tier elite families!

....

Jiang Ye finally had a spare moment when he lifted his gaze and realized his wife had disappeared.

He then promptly left the group surrounding him and began searching indoors.

As he was walking down the corridor, a server suddenly stumbled towards Jiang Ye, and several glasses of red wine from the tray spilled all over him.

"Ah, I’m so sorry, sorry sir, I really didn’t mean to."

Jiang Ye’s frown was deep, but he didn’t want to make a big deal out of an incident with a server:

"Out of the way!"

"Sir, I..."

"I’ll say it one last time, out of the way."

He was really on the edge of exploding.

"Yes."

With so much red wine spilled over him, his clothes were not fit for wearing anymore, he casually asked a nearby attendant:

"Where is the guest room?" he inquired.

"Sir, it’s on the third floor."

After that, Jiang Ye headed straight for the third floor.

He climbed the stairs in haste and didn’t notice Jiang Qiu tucked away in a corner.

When he entered the guest room, he also didn’t notice Jiang Qiu standing face-to-face with the server who had just spilled the wine, evidently handing over some cash.

After taking the money, the server left, and Jiang Qiu, pulling out her phone from her bag, made a call:

"You can come up now."

Having said that, she hung up.

Before leaving, her eyes cast a deep, meaningful glance at the location of the guest room.

....

At such events, the hosts would always have several sets of clothes prepared in the guest rooms for the guests to change into, for both men and women, but in different rooms.

Jiang Ye didn’t bother to look specifically, and by chance, opened a guest room filled with men’s suits, formal attire, and shirts, so he didn’t suspect anything and started to undress.

That red wine had really saturated his clothes, now still wet and dripping.

It seemed not only the suit jacket, but also the shirt, and even the trousers needed changing.

He quickly took off the jacket, and as he was pulling his shirt out from the belt, approximately unbuttoning the second button, the guest room door was suddenly opened from outside.

"Young Master Jiang!"

???

In an instant, Jiang Ye’s forehead pulsed with annoyance, and sure enough, when he looked up, he saw a woman he didn’t recognize!
