"Doctor Lu, is this your boyfriend?"
Sure enough, a patient’s family member was teasing.
"Cough, yes," she responded.
"This boyfriend is quite good, willing to come pick up Doctor Lu after work."
What could Lu Jing say?
She was pretty much left with nothing but nodding and smiling.
Luckily, at that moment the elevator arrived.
After entering the elevator, she finally let out a big sigh of relief.
However, the man beside her chuckled softly,
"Doctor Lu, did you see? The public eye is sharp!"
"You’re given an inch and you take a mile, huh?"
There were still a few young ladies in the elevator, who couldn’t help but laugh when they heard this.
They did take a few more glances though.
After all, the man was super handsome, and the woman was beautiful too, a perfect match.
Who doesn’t like beautiful things?
As they say on the internet, handsome men and beautiful women belong to everyone.
Lu Jing rolled her eyes hard and then deliberately looked away.
At this point, Jiang Ye dared not talk nonsense anymore, but he still had a grin on his face.
’Ding’—the elevator reached the first floor.
The girls stepped out first, with Lu Jing following swiftly behind, walking very fast.
The man who was left behind strolled leisurely out of the elevator, his long legs catching up in just a few strides.
"Then don’t be mad, okay?"
"Which eye of yours saw me getting mad? Do I look like someone who gets angry easily?"
That was not an easy question to answer.
"Of course not, my wife is so magnanimous. How could she get mad, right?"
"Buzz off, who’s your wife?"
Jiang Ye almost hurt himself from holding back his laughter, and quickly grabbed her:
"You’re not going to do a dine-and-dash on me, are you? Doctor Lu, one must not be so insincere in life!"
If you eat, you’ve got to own up.
Otherwise, that’s simply hooliganism!
Lu Jing’s mouth twitched sharply:
"Shut your mouth, blabber one more nonsense, and I’ll help you sew it shut!"
"Alright, alright, the car is over there."
Lu Jing paused in her steps, then turned in a new direction.
Of course, she was still not in good spirits:
"You’re driving when it’s this close? Is fuel cheap or something?"
Fuel prices had gone up by more than a dollar lately.
But compared to his woman, fuel really wasn’t worth mentioning.
"After a night shift, you still have the energy to walk home?"
Lu Jing felt deflated, not to mention walking, she didn’t even feel like breathing hard.
She didn’t say much more, until they got into the car.
"You didn’t rest last night, did you?" she suddenly asked.
The man driving the car hummed in affirmation.
"Then why did you come to pick me up? Don’t you need to go home and rest?" Follow current novels on NoveI[F]ire.net
"I’m not tired, picking up my wife is the most important thing."
Jiang Yekou was well trained; carrying the load for one night was nothing for him, let alone three days and nights.
Lu Jing didn’t bother to argue anymore, she knew she couldn’t win.
She leaned back in her seat, eyes closed.
The big jeep entered the fire brigade compound, and by then, Lu Jing had completely fallen asleep.
She didn’t even know when the car stopped, nor the fact that she was carried downstairs from the passenger seat by the man, then taken upstairs to the apartment without opening her eyes once.
Jiang Ye looked at the woman sleeping in his arms, his face softening even more.
He gently placed her on the big bed, took off her shoes with great care, then went to the bathroom to fetch a basin of hot water. He dampened a towel and wiped her face.
In the whole world, Captain Jiang could not have been this tenderly caring for anyone else but Lu Jing.
After all, no outsider had the gall to accept that kind of treatment!
In the end, Jiang Ye also lay down, pulling her into his arms, inhaled deeply with satisfaction, then closed his eyes.
