Old Qin felt rather under the weather:
"Ouch, I’m telling you, Old Jiang, don’t doubt it; sometimes things really are that mystical!"
People always say: The end of science is metaphysics!
Besides, there’s some truth to what our ancestors passed down.
Jiang Ye rolled his eyes:
"Then you believe it."
Making it sound like some cult leader. Fınd the newest release on N0velFire.ɴet
Captain Jiang believing that would be a surprise.
The leader’s speech continued, and Old Qin, unable to stay still,
"Hey, Old Jiang, what do you think will happen next?"
Jiang Ye furrowed his brows:
"We’re already on the mountain; what do you think?"
Old Qin was suddenly struck as if by thunder, his mind clearing up:
Can’t waste an opportunity, right?
Old Qin smirked; luckily, the leaders’ speeches had finally ended, and they could rest on the spot for twenty minutes.
After all, he hadn’t even drunk a sip of water all morning.
Continuing could lead to trouble.
Time for a break to catch their breath.
Jiang Ye sat on a rock, his hand itching to reach into his pocket.
Naturally, he found nothing; his phone was still in the car at the foot of the mountain.
He hadn’t used to do this, but now he had the habit—if he had a moment, he’d want to contact a certain woman, to hear her voice.
Reality wouldn’t allow it. There was nothing to be done.
He could only wait to make a call after coming down in the evening.
By now, Old Qin had nearly stripped down to his undershirt.
He hadn’t forgotten to ask:
"Hey, Old Jiang, aren’t you hot?"
We’re all human, definitely feeling the same; how could he not be hot?
Jiang Ye finally started to unzip his rescue uniform, took it off to feel the breeze, and lifted his cap aside.
It was late October, and the weather was turning colder, but everyone was sweating enough to leave salt crystals.
Imagine how much sweat that was?
Several teammates were already sitting beside Jiang Ye, and one sharp-eyed one exclaimed:
"Wow, Captain Jiang, that looks intense!"
As soon as these words were out, the others, of course, all looked over.
Their faces suddenly held meaningful smiles.
Jiang Ye reached behind and felt his back, understanding immediately.
If nothing unexpected, it must have been from the claws of a certain wildcat-like woman last night!
He swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva.
Then, he swiftly glanced at the crowd:
"Pretty idle, aren’t we?"
With that said, the group that loved a good scene but hated big trouble quieted down and didn’t make more of a fuss.
Jiang Ye, without a blush, very naturally redressed.
Though he didn’t blush, he couldn’t let the joke continue!
Only a fool would bring such things to light.
The team members quieted down, but Old Qin sneaked over:
"Old Jiang, don’t go too far; that skinny body of our sister-in-law can’t take too much of your antics."
Jiang Ye had just sipped some water, which he suddenly spat out.
"You gossip too? Want me to find some work for you?"
"No, no, no, I was just kindly reminding you a bit."
A reminder, is it necessary?
Doesn’t he know how to cherish his own wife?
What a noisy outsider!
In the hospital, just after seeing a patient, Doctor Lu sneezed violently, twice and very loudly.
"Doctor Lu, caught a cold?"
"Then someone must be thinking about you behind your back."
The first face that popped into Doctor Lu’s mind was that of Jiang Ye.
