Over here, Lu Jing was finding the situation a bit hard to bear.
Doctor Wei elbowed him:
"So that’s your husband?"
"Not bad, I think I’ve even heard about your man’s deeds." ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novelꜰire.net
After all, their work units were just diagonally across from each other, so anyone who’d been there a little longer would know about the major events that had happened.
Word spreads from one to ten, and ten to a hundred, doesn’t it?
Moreover, there weren’t a few couples formed between the two work units, so didn’t the news just flow between them?
"I remember it was either two years ago or three years ago, your man was on our city’s TV station."
About this, Lu Jing genuinely didn’t know.
"Right, exactly, I remember it clearly, it was your man, and at that time there was also a firefighter who sacrificed his life."
Hearing the word ’sacrifice’, Lu Jing’s heart gave a shudder.
So, if he really had to say, Lu Jing definitely wouldn’t want Jiang Ye to be any sort of hero; wasn’t it so much better for him to be an ordinary person and live a safe life?
But the reality was, there was no other way.
Lu Jing remained silent for a long time, and Doctor Wei also realized something:
"That, I didn’t mean to bring that up on purpose, just slipped out..."
"No worries, no worries, I was just reminded of something."
Doctor Wei also let go of her concern:
"Alright, let’s go have lunch."
During the meal, Jiang Ye surprisingly didn’t cause any trouble and just chatted with the director and the others, except for occasionally glancing over.
After lunch, there were two hours for a nap.
Having not slept well the night before, Lu Jing wanted to catch up on some sleep, and after washing up, went upstairs in slippers.
Who knew that upon opening the door, instead of Doctor Wei, he saw a certain stinky man sitting straight up on his own little bed.
Lu Jing stood in the doorway stunned for about two seconds before reacting:
"What are you doing here? Where’s Doctor Wei?" he questioned.
While speaking, he also looked around.
The man got up from the side of the bed and slowly walked towards Lu Jing:
"Stop looking, Doctor Wei went to her colleague’s place."
She definitely won’t be coming back now.
To be a bright lightbulb?
Plus, getting fed dog food can really cause indigestion, you know!
So, better not, as the saying goes: Out of sight, out of mind!
Lu Jing glared several times before pushing away the man in front of him, who was smiling mischievously:
After getting to the side of the bed, he crouched down and dragged the suitcase from under the bed.
He didn’t bother with whatever the person was doing and started rummaging for something.
Jiang Ye touched his nose sullenly and then casually closed the door:
"Wife, what are you looking for?"
Someone apparently didn’t feel awkward and came over again, squatting down next to the woman:
"What are you looking for? I’ll help you find it."
This time, Lu Jing responded:
Because he had already found it, it was a tube of ointment for external use.
There was no helping it, having only been here a day and already developing many red rashes on his skin, not sure if it was from bug bites or an allergic reaction.
But he had never had an allergic reaction before, so it was probably just some bug.
Better apply some ointment first; if it doesn’t get better, then he’ll wait to go back and see a dermatologist colleague.
Jiang Ye glanced at it and saw that it was ointment, his eyes suddenly deepening, his hand already snatching it:
"What’s happened? Where are you hurt?"
Lu Jing shook his head:
"I’m not hurt, can you stop thinking I’m always injured, okay?"
The man lifted the tube of ointment:
"If you’re not hurt, then what’s this about?"
