In the kitchen, the last main dish was still boiling in the pot—spicy boiled fish.
Lu Jing had just reached out to serve the dish when he was stopped by Mrs. Qin:
"Don't touch it, it's all talk. When Old Qin and the others come back, they'll handle it."
Huh?
Lu Jing looked at Mrs. Qin, puzzled.
Pfft—
"Hey, sister-in-law, why are you so earnest?"
"Ah?"
"Pulling you in here was just to talk about something, it wasn't convenient outside," she whispered.
Finally, he understood.
Lu Jing nodded:
"Is there something you want to tell me, sister-in-law?" he asked.
Hearing this, Mrs. Qin still let out a sigh before speaking:
"Well, sister-in-law, let me apologize to you first!
I mean, it's your first time coming to our house, and as your sister-in-law, I've caused such an upsetting situation, I really am sorry."
Ah...
Another few sighs followed.
Lu Jing was confused. What was going on?
"Sister-in-law, could there be some mistake?" he asked.
