Chapter 272 - FLNC Ch.272 Can’t you be a little romantic? (5) (1/2)

To make things worse, he was actually caught by his best friend during his trip with Jiang Mucheng to Haigang City. So, was he going to jail for “abducting a fool” now?

Lu Ting quickly tried to resolve the awkward situation. “Come on, let’s go out together.”

After getting off the plane, Lin Yueqi, Tuantuan, and Jiang Mucheng were walking at the front.

Li Xing and Lu Ting were at the back, holding all the luggage.

Lu Ting asked, “When did it start?”

“Don’t misunderstand.” Li Xing clearly appeared quite embarrassed.

You know what that old witch back at my house is like. If she knew that I treat Old Cheng differently from other people, what do you think will happen?”
