Fire Chief vs. Surgeon: A Tale of Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 803: More Precious Than Her Own Son

The next day.

Just as the sky was getting light, Lu Jing woke up.

But the person next to her, for once, hadn’t disappeared like usual, and was still sound asleep.

Lu Jing was a little surprised, staying still for a few seconds, staring unblinkingly.

After about half a minute, she finally moved her shoulder a bit.

Slowly lifting the quilt, she got up and left the bed.

Just as she was about to head to the bathroom, she saw the phone that someone had thrown on the carpet last night light up.

Seeing the caller ID, it was Jiang’s mother.

If it was a call from work or someone else, Lu Jing would never answer it.

But for Jiang’s mother, she could answer.

She quickly took the phone outside and looked back.

Seeing the person on the bed hadn’t been woken up, she quietly answered:

"Hello, Aunt Su?"

The voice on the other end almost called out "son," but swallowed it back down.

"Is it Jingjing?"

Great, it was clear now, her son must have been with his wife last night.

As a mother-in-law, she was very pleased to see such a scene.

Who wouldn’t want the younger generation in the family to get along well?

Unfortunately, in most families, there seems to be some tension between the older and younger generations.

After all, as the old saying goes: mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law have been natural enemies since ancient times.

Lu Jing cleared her throat and lowered her voice:

"Yes, Aunt Su, it’s me."

"Is Aye not there?"

"He’s here, still sleeping. Are you looking for him, Aunt Su? Should I wake him?"

Hearing this, Jiang’s mother hurriedly said on the phone:

"No, no, don’t wake him. Let him sleep. I just wanted to check on you."

Since she’s already on the phone, there’s no need to ask the son, just ask the wife directly, right?

After that, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chatted back and forth.

Clearly, this pair doesn’t have that so-called ’natural enemy’ relationship.

Their bond was as close as that of a mother and daughter.

As they chatted, twenty minutes passed unknowingly.

In the large bed inside, Jiang Ye had actually woken up long ago.

With all that noise, if he hadn’t woken up, it would have been a waste of years of training.

Seeing the woman outside getting more and more excited, Jiang Ye had to get out of bed.

Lu Jing hadn’t noticed the movements inside, happily chatting with Jiang’s mother.

"Yeah, that’s right, those are the big bamboo leaves. We fold the bamboo leaves to drink water every time....."

’Knock, knock...’

In the middle of her excitement, there was a sound behind her.

Hmm?

Turning her head, she saw the man leaning against the wall, looking at her with an amused smile.

Lu Jing’s face instantly turned red:

"You’re awake?" she asked.

Jiang Ye smiled, shrugging his shoulders:

"Are you done chatting with your mother-in-law?"

Uh.

Suddenly, Lu Jing didn’t know what to say.

Jiang Ye walked over and took the phone from her hand:

"Mom, your daughter-in-law hasn’t had breakfast yet. Let’s chat again later when we have time."

With that, he decisively hung up the phone.

Lu Jing finally came back to her senses:

"Jiang Ye, did you just hang up like that?"

Isn’t that a bit... you know?

After all, that was still the mom.

But then again, only his own mom could be treated so casually; others would require some politeness.

But Jiang Ye, what kind of person is he?

There’s no way he would care about that, right?

If there’s any politeness to be shown, it’s others who must show it to the Crown Prince.

The man chuckled:

"Yup, it’s hung up. Don’t worry, your mother-in-law won’t mind, she treasures you too much."

Anyway, right now, this daughter-in-law is more cherished than the son.

Especially since the daughter-in-law’s belly holds their own grandchild.
