Fire Chief vs. Surgeon: A Tale of Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 719: Suddenly Filled with a Myriad of Thoughts
"It’s a pity. I was hoping that child could have come back, it would have filled the gap of their past regret."
"Now, the gender of the baby might not even be the same. How could it be the same child?"
"Granny, you’re here."
The old lady finally looked up:
"Oh, we’ve actually arrived at my doorstep, I completely forgot while we were chatting.
Xiao Lu, be careful when you go upstairs, take your time, don’t rush."
The old lady truly cared, and Lu Jing wouldn’t dismiss her kindness.
"Mm-hmm, I got it, Granny."
....
Back at home.
Right now, I didn’t want to do anything, just collapsed on the sofa.
My heart felt very uncomfortable, a stifling feeling.
My hand unconsciously rested on my belly, my face full of thoughts.
How could others understand these feelings?
Even Jiang Ye couldn’t.
After all, there’s a big difference between men and women.
Lu Jing knew that what she was thinking now was all nonsense, but as a pregnant woman, her mind had become much more sensitive, and she couldn’t control it.
So all she could do was to keep hypnotizing herself in her mind, "Stop thinking about these things."
It was effective, and she fell asleep in a daze.
Luckily, the heating in the house was sufficient, not cold.
When Jiang Ye returned and opened the door, he was startled for a moment.
He didn’t dare to shout out loud and hurried towards the sofa without even changing his shoes.
He squatted down and checked his wife’s forehead.
Mm, the temperature wasn’t high, very normal.
Only then did he let out a sigh of relief.
Looking at the time, it wasn’t early either, his fingers pinched his wife’s cheek:
"Wife, wake up," he said softly.
Lu Jing slowly opened her eyes, still feeling groggy:
"You’re back?" she muttered.
The man hummed:
"Why are you sleeping here?"
Lu Jing glanced around and finally realized what was happening.
"Ah, this... I..."
How could she do anything about falling asleep there?
Fortunately, Jiang Ye wasn’t really asking for an explanation.
"Are you feeling unwell?"
He was mainly worried she might catch a cold.
"No."
It was just that sleeping on the sofa definitely wasn’t as comfortable as the bed, she felt a bit sore in the back, but she dared not say it.
Didn’t she know this man’s temperament by now?
Mm, she would just rub it herself later.
But Jiang Ye wasn’t blind; he noticed every change in his wife’s expression. How could he fail to notice?
For a moment, he felt both exasperated and amused.
"You’re still being insincere with me?" he inquired, word by word.
Uh?
Lu Jing was stunned, her expression awkward.
Caught red-handed.
"I..." she tried to explain, but couldn’t articulate anything.
However, Jiang Ye had already placed his large hand on his wife’s waist and began to rub.
In Captain Jiang’s words, why talk so much nonsense when you can just take action!
Apart from her initial confusion, Lu Jing truly began to enjoy the massage:
"Move to the side, it’s so sore," she directed him from time to time.
Without a single word of complaint, Captain Jiang diligently massaged his wife’s waist.
After about five minutes:
"Okay, that’s enough, I’ll go freshen up, I still have work," she said.
The man withdrew his hand:
"Go ahead."
...
Lu Jing headed to the bathroom, and Jiang Ye stood up and went into the bedroom.
He was actually just coming back to pick up some stuff; the neighboring study had been turned into a secondary bedroom, and many important things had been moved into the safe in the master bedroom.
Lu Jing knew nothing about all this.
After freshening up, she saw that the man had already come out of the bedroom.
"What are you doing?" she asked.
The man pinched his pants pocket:
"Nothing much, shall I take you to work?"
"Oh."
