Fire Chief vs. Surgeon: A Tale of Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 744: The Packaging is Quite Exquisite
So, how should I put it?
Well, for Captain Jiang, those things weren’t really a big deal.
Lu Jing stretched out his palm:
"That project won the prize, and the prize money was so much."
???
"Five million?"
Cough, cough.
Lu Jing coughed a series, gazing at the man with a deep look several times:
"How did you guess so accurately?"
I have guessed several times myself.
It’s just, so unfair.
Not convinced.
Jiang Ye pulled at the corner of his mouth, laughing as he said,
"A prize money of five million, that’s no small award, wife, impressive!"
Listening to the man’s praise, Lu Jing’s eyes were smiling:
"Right? But, it’s not just my merit alone, the teacher is the most impressive, and so are the seniors."
Lu Jing had complete admiration for his teacher and showed great respect in front of those seniors.
Impressive people are always genuinely admired wherever they go.
Jiang Ye smiled and nodded:
"So, how much of a red envelope did they give you?"
It’s already so clear, if you still can’t guess, then it’s a waste having a brain.
No wonder he sent me that message early at noon. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Hmm, and bought me a gift.
As for what exactly the gift is, I’ll find out soon.
Lu Jing was quite happy, continuing to gesture with his fingers, first a one, then a six:
"Just this much."
Jiang Ye’s eyes twinkled:
"One thousand six? Or sixteen thousand?" he said.
To say it wasn’t on purpose, nobody would believe that.
But, the person who was happily indulging didn’t really notice that the man was purposefully teasing him.
"How could it be? Guess again!"
"That... one hundred sixty thousand?"
This time, the woman nodded affirmatively:
"Yes, exactly one hundred sixty thousand."
Pfft!
How could you even guess this?
Absolutely effortless.
Luckily, Captain Jiang was always very patient with his wife.
"Should I congratulate you then?"
Lu Jing shook her head:
"No need, let’s eat dinner."
This dinner was bought with a prize money of one hundred sixty thousand after all.
"Okay!"
....
The couple ate a bit slowly this time, taking a full half an hour to finish.
After finishing the meal, Jiang Ye tidied up the dining table, but fortunately, he didn’t need to wash the dishes.
He was eager to see what exactly his wife had bought for him, so he sped up his movements.
Lu Jing leaned against the counter drinking water, with the purchased items placed on the counter.
If you looked closely, you could see a faint redness at the roots of the woman’s ears.
So, what exactly did she buy?
Jiang Ye wasn’t blind.
And, Captain Jiang’s observational skills are so strong!
How could he possibly not notice?
He stepped forward, wrapping his arms around the woman, his chin also resting on her shoulder:
"Wife~"
Every time he called her that, Lu Jing couldn’t stand it, her body breaking out in goosebumps.
"Ssh, get off me."
The man wouldn’t let go:
"No, tell me, what did you buy?"
Keeping it so secretive, he had really piqued the man’s curiosity.
Lu Jing’s face grew even redder, clumsily placing the water cup on the counter:
"That, you can look for yourself."
Saying so, she attempted to escape.
However, how could the man easily let the woman escape?
One arm tightly confined the person in his embrace, while the other hand began to open the bag.
Lu Jing’s face was nearly red up to her neck, and she knew she couldn’t escape since the man wouldn’t let go.
Well, might as well accept it.
Having reconciled, she struggled less, and the flush on her face faded slightly.
At this moment, Jiang Ye had already taken the item out of the bag.
The small box was neatly packed, but the few big characters on it were clearly visible.
