Chapter 499: Chapter 499: You’re Impressive

Lu Jing received a call from Dai Changwan, and naturally, she couldn’t be bothered with a certain person at home anymore.

She even went into the study and closed the door.

"Awan, what’s wrong?"

Over the phone, Dai Changwan’s tone was obviously anxious,

"Lu Lu, do you have any cash at home?"

???

"How much do you need?"

These days, who uses cash anymore? Even if there is some kept at home, it won’t be a lot.

If it’s really needed, then one can only wait until the banks open tomorrow morning to withdraw it.

"Two hundred thousand will do, or even one hundred thousand is fine."

Hiss!

Lu Jing didn’t even have ten thousand in cash in her purse, so where was she going to get one hundred thousand?

However, since her best friend needed it, Lu Jing didn’t ask any further questions. There must be an urgent issue, of course!

"Awan, wait for me, I’ll go ask Jiang Ye."

"Okay."

...

In the living room, Jiang Ye was mopping the floor when he saw the door to the study suddenly open.

"Jiang Ye, do you have any money?"

Huh?

He realized the question sounded a bit off, so he rephrased:

"Do you have any cash?"

Who doesn’t have tens of thousands on their card?

It’s just the need for cash that’s so troublesome, isn’t it?

Jiang Ye was bewildered for a moment, then after coming to his senses, he asked:

"What do you need cash for?"

Lu Jing hesitated, then decided to tell him the situation:

"It’s not me who needs it, it’s Awan. She’s in urgent need of it."

Hearing that it was Miss Dai who needed it and that it was so urgent this late at night, Jiang Ye’s expression turned more serious as he narrowed his eyes:

"How much does she need?"

Lu Jing held up two fingers.

Jiang Ye pulled at the corner of his mouth:

"Twenty thousand?"

"No."

"Two hundred thousand?"

Cough.

Lowering his hand:

"She originally wanted two hundred thousand, but then she might have thought it was a bit difficult, so she just wants one hundred thousand now."

Jiang Ye grunted, then tossed the mop to the side:

"Doctor Lu, get dressed."

"Ah?"

Jiang Ye laughed:

"There isn’t much cash in the staff quarters, and the amount Miss Dai needs is not small. We’ll have to go to another house to get it."

Huh?

Hearing this, Lu Jing understood:

"Is there any there?"

"Of course!"

Forget one hundred thousand, even two hundred thousand or double that would be more than enough.

...

The couple left the staff quarters late at night, not encountering many people on the way, only the sentries knew they had driven out.

On the road, they were speeding quite fast.

After all, they didn’t know what kind of emergency the other party was in, and it was better to be quick, to avoid any delay.

"Jiang Ye, don’t drive so fast, be careful."

Safety must come first despite the urgency.

This speed was reaching 100 miles per hour.

Driving 100 mph in the city center is really fast,

especially now in the middle of the night when the roads were empty.

Try it during the day?

After about fifteen minutes of driving, they had already arrived.

They had lived here for two years after all; they were familiar with the place.

"Let’s stay here tonight and go back early tomorrow morning."

Lu Jing had no objections:

"Okay."

"By the way, you mentioned my brother’s house was being renovated, didn’t you? Is it done now?"

It had been a few months; surely it should be finished by now, right?

The man was momentarily choked up: this...

Could he say that it was just something he said at the time and that there wasn’t actually any renovation?

Of course, what needed to be torn down was indeed torn down.

The main purpose was one – to get her to come with him!

Seeing the man unable to speak and looking guilty, Lu Jing wasn’t foolish; she could definitely guess.

Hehe.

"Jiang Ye, not bad!"

The man’s face broke into a smile:

"Pretty average."

"Average?"

If you’re just average, what about everyone else?
