Chapter 132: Chapter 132 When Did Jiang Ye Arrive

With Director Long’s encouragement, the group braced themselves, not for anything else but to go home and sleep as soon as possible.

Seeing this, Director Long happily went to the neighboring office.

...

Although it was only a small team of four people, each of them was exceptionally capable.

Not quite two men’s worth, but at least worth one and a half.

At nearly eleven o’clock, they finally completed the checkpoint.

Very good, as Uncle Long said, none of them guessed correctly.

"Let’s go, let’s go, I’m going back to sleep!"

"Uncle Long, see you tomorrow."

"Alright, all of you be safe on your way back, you little rascals."

Lu Jing lingered at the end, wrestling with whether or not to notify someone.

At that moment, Director Long suddenly spoke up:

"Xiao Lu."

"Coach?"

Lu Jing saw Director Long point outside, and following his direction, was immediately startled.

Wait, when did he get here?

While thinking this, Director Long spoke up again:

"What are you standing around for? Go on, he’s been waiting for you for a while now."

Uh...

"Coach, I’m heading off then."

"Go ahead."

Leaving the lab, Lu Jing’s hands were tightly stuffed in his pockets, only he knew how tense they were, and he felt extremely nervous inside.

When he finally stood in front of the man:

"When did you get here?" she asked.

"Not too long ago."

"Yaoyao?"

"At the Qin family’s."

Lu Jing’s brow furrowed:

"Isn’t it a bit inconvenient to be there so late?"

Because she never liked to trouble others, it was something she was not used to.

Jiang Ye wasn’t worried about this at all:

"There’s nothing inconvenient about it, everyone at the fire department is happy to help out."

Today, you help me; tomorrow, I help you—everyone’s very enthusiastic.

Jiang Ye reached out and took her hand:

"Let’s go."

Lu Jing paused for a second on the spot before catching up, without even mentioning letting go of his hand.

Realizing this, Jiang Ye was a bit puzzled to himself:

Why has she suddenly become so good?

And Jiang Ye gladly accepted this change.

Very satisfied.

On the way back to the fire station, Lu Jing really wanted to ask about the events of the past.

But as the words reached her lips, she swallowed them back down.

"What’s wrong?"

Being so close, how could he not sense that something was off?

Lu Jing shook her head:

"Nothing."

They didn’t walk fast, in fact, quite slowly.

It took nearly ten minutes to reach the fire station.

And after entering, Lu Jing picked up her pace considerably.

In fact, it was mainly because she was worried about the child, afraid that the little one might cry.

"Why did you leave Yaoyao at Coach Qin’s?" she asked.

Jiang Ye was quite helpless:

"What else could I do?

She insisted on taking a bath before going to sleep, and I, a grown man, certainly can’t do that, so I had to ask the wife for help."

Cough.

It seemed that was indeed the case.

No helping it, it was a habit formed from childhood.

Pfft~

She couldn’t help but chuckle lightly.

It just seemed kind of funny.

As they spoke, they arrived outside the Old Qin Family home.

Knocking on the door.

Quickly, someone from inside opened the door:

"Hey, little sister-in-law, finished work?"

"Coach Qin."

"No, no, call me Old Qin, come on in."

Only Old Qin was in the living room, apparently busy writing some training plans.

"Where’s the child?" Jiang Ye asked.

Old Qin pointed to the room:

"Your wife is soothing the two little ones to sleep; they should all be asleep by now."

At this moment, Mrs. Qin probably heard some noise and came out:

"Little sister-in-law, you’re off work?"

"Yes, I really troubled the wife tonight."

"Why are you and Captain Jiang so formal? The child is asleep; she kept saying she missed you before bedtime. Why not let her sleep over at our house tonight? So as not to wake her up."

But Lu Jing refused:

"No, no, the wife has been bothered enough already."
