CHAPTER 575: CHAPTER 575: FEELING SORRY FOR HIS WOMAN

The car made its way from the police station back to the fire brigade, and by the time they arrived, it was almost three in the morning. There wasn’t a soul in sight except for the two guards at the entrance.

Jiang Ye carried the woman out of the car, and Lu Jing finally came to:

"Are we there?" she asked.

"Yeah, you awake?"

Lu Jing rubbed her eyes, then patted the man’s wrist:

"I can walk on my own, put me down."

Being asleep was one thing, but now she was awake, it was another.

She wasn’t that much of a drama queen.

Jiang Ye had no choice but to let her down:

"Why so sleepy? Are you sure you’re not feeling unwell?" he asked again.

Lu Jing shook her head:

"No, I’m certain."

What else could Jiang Ye say?

"Alright, let’s go home."

If she really wasn’t feeling well, they’d have to wait until daylight to deal with it.

It’s easier to find a doctor in the light of day, after all. In the deep of night, only emergency is available, which isn’t very convenient.

Maybe having slept a while, she didn’t feel quite so sleepy anymore.

"Jiang Ye."

"Hmm?"

"Today, I....."

At the police station, there were many things she hadn’t managed to say.

Now that they were home, couldn’t she let out her frustrations?

Jiang Ye knew his wife wasn’t as tough as she seemed; in fact, she was quite fragile.

Of course, he could only think this to himself and wouldn’t dare to say it out loud.

He closed the door behind them and wrapped his arms around her lower back:

"I’m here, don’t be afraid, nothing’s going to happen."

As if he would just stand by if something did happen!

Lu Jing wrapped her arms around his waist:

"But I still feel so upset."

It was inevitable, after all, they’d been involved with a real, living creature.

Jiang Ye gently kissed the top of her head:

"You’re that upset, huh? Bite me then!"

Maybe venting really could relieve her distress?

But Lu Jing wasn’t that type of person, how could she just bite on command?

She gave him a sideways glance while letting go:

"Get lost!"

This guy had no sense of romance!

Pfft.

Truth be told, he was doing it on purpose.

As long as it could cheer up his wife, anything goes.

Jiang Ye’s little diversion had indeed lightened the sadness in Lu Jing’s heart substantially.

She turned and headed for the kitchen:

"I’m going to get some water, do you want some?"

The man laughed:

"Yes."

How could he refuse when his wife offered to pour him water?

He followed her all bouncy, then once she fetched the water, he darted back ahead of her with the same bouncy steps.

Lu Jing had noticed the whole time and now she couldn’t help but purse her lips:

Juvenile!

Such a grown man, how could he be so childish?

It was a good thing the other firemen weren’t around to see this, or who knows how their jaws would drop.

The Great Demon Jiang, to think he had such a side to him... it seems words fail to describe.

Jiang Ye chuckled heartily at his wife:

"Madam~"

Tsk.

Lu Jing quickly handed over the water glass:

"Drink."

Please, spare her the act.

She just couldn’t stand it.

But despite her apparent distaste, inside she was feeling quite sweet.

So, indeed, her mood improved greatly.

"Jiang Ye."

He had just taken a sip, "What now?"

Hopefully, there wasn’t something else.

But of course, there was no other matter.

"Nothing much, can’t I just call you?"

Ahem.

"Of course not, absolutely not. Madam can call me however she wishes, no objections whatsoever!"

Would he dare to object?

Does he think he has it too easy in life?

Lu Jing rolled her eyes:

"Was it Officer Zhu who informed you?"

"Yeah."

"And then you came?"

"Otherwise what? Leave you there alone? How could I be at ease?"

He didn’t consider just how much this man cherished his woman.
