Fire Chief vs. Surgeon: A Tale of Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 761 Almost Couldn’t Keep Up with the Pace
Lu Jing jerked his head up, and when he saw that all-too-familiar silhouette, tears couldn’t help but drop from his eyes.
The Nurse Director quickly reached out to steady him:
"Are you okay?" she asked softly.
Lu Jing shook his head and wiped the tears off his face:
"I’m fine, let’s go."
On the other side, the villagers saw the medical team and were very excited:
"The doctors are here!
Doctors have arrived!" they shouted.
It was then that Jiang Ye finally turned around.
But with that turn, he almost lost his footing, his shoulders shaking violently.
His complexion, well, it suddenly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
Not to mention Lu Jing, even the Nurse Director and Dr. Yu were shocked when they saw him.
Geez, that’s frightening!
A team member also noticed Lu Jing:
"Eh, the wife is here?" he exclaimed.
At that exclamation, everyone around turned to look.
The Nurse Director and Dr. Yu exchanged a knowing glance:
"Cough, Doctor Lu, we’ll go ahead, you and Captain Jiang have a good chat," they said.
And then they really ran off.
Actually, Lu Jing was a bit scared and didn’t even dare to look directly.
Jiang Ye walked over step by step until he was just half a step away from the woman.
"Heh~"
The first thing that came out was a cold sneer.
Lu Jing shuddered, wanting very much to step back, but before she could move, she was stopped.
"What are you moving for? Stand properly!"
Ahem.
Immediately she stood up straight, her entire body rigid.
Jiang Ye was initially very angry, but upon seeing this, he couldn’t help but laugh at the anger.
"Who told you to come?" he asked.
Lu Jing pursed her lips:
"No one, I came on my own."
Indeed, no one had instructed her.
Besides, who among the hospital leadership didn’t know Lu Jing’s status?
They certainly wouldn’t dare to assign her tasks at random, much less send her to a disaster area.
It was Lu Jing who took the initiative, and no one could stop her.
Didn’t you see that a medical team which was only supposed to have five members ended up with one extra when they set out?
Clearly, that extra person was the substitute arranged by the hospital.
Jiang Ye, covered in dust and mud, grabbed Lu Jing’s wrist:
"Come with me."
Huh???
Was he not going to pursue the matter?
Wishful thinking. How could it not be followed up?
After they stopped, having not walked much further—only about ten meters—Lu Jing looked up to see a radiant smile, but the man said:
"Don’t try to ingratiate yourself with me. I called you over because it’s unsafe there."
What a bucket of cold water that was.
The smile on Lu Jing’s face froze, and after moving her lips several times, she finally spoke:
"So what do you want?"
She was here, wasn’t she?
Jiang Ye was taken aback, not expecting his own wife to be such a tough nut to crack.
With this I-don’t-care-anymore attitude, who could really do anything about it?
"Does your stomach feel uncomfortable?"
"Ah? No, it feels fine."
The sudden change of subject nearly threw her off.
Jiang Ye knew all too well how difficult it had been to climb from the base of the mountain to the top, which is why he looked so upset after seeing his wife.
In the end, it was all because of concern and nervousness.
After all, his wife was pregnant and had the audacity to run to a disaster area?
Completely reckless!
But when it came down to voicing any criticism, he couldn’t bear it and couldn’t bring himself to say anything.
Forget it.
"How long did it take you to climb up?"
Lu Jing pouted unhappily:
"It took several hours, with no path at all."
