Jiang Ye dropped Lu Jing and Jiang Yuan off at the entrance to another mall, where a manager was already waiting outside after having been notified in advance.

Upon seeing the car stop, the manager quickly ran up to greet them.

"Is this Mrs. Jiang and Miss Jiang?"

Lu Jing was momentarily confused before nodding: 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

"Mm, yes."

At that moment, the driver’s side door opened, and the man got out of the car, saying with a smile:

"In a bit, you will follow Manager Hao, who will accompany you the whole time."

Is that really necessary?

Even though the words weren’t spoken out loud, the expression on his face made it very clear, and how could the man not understand?

"Wife, I don’t want what happened before to happen again, so please, be good, okay?"

Oh.

Having said so much, how could she refuse?

Besides, it was something the man had specially arranged for her, after all.

"Alright, alright."

It was a feeling of helplessness mixed with a bit of sweetness.

It was only then that Jiang Ye felt assured enough to hum a response:

"I’m heading back to the office now, remember to call me if you need anything."

Cough, how insecure does one have to be?

To repeat the same instructions so many times?

"I got it, I got it, you better get back to work."

She really wanted to say: Stop your incessant nagging, it’s completely out of character, you know?

Jiang Ye apparently noticed his wife’s impatience and glanced at Manager Hao.

Manager Hao quickly said:

"Young Master Jiang, rest assured, I will take good care of Mrs. Jiang and Miss Jiang."

With a manager to accompany them throughout, that kind of situation from before surely wouldn’t happen again.

Who would be so blind?

Or so foolishly idiotic?

After hearing this, Jiang Ye finally reopened the car door and got in.

Once the car had left, Lu Jing and Jiang Yuan, arm in arm, followed Manager Hao into the mall.

"Young Madam, this way, please."

"Thank you, I appreciate it."

"It’s no trouble at all, it’s my duty."
