Chapter 161: Chapter 161 Who Says I Need to Wait for You to Come Back to Sleep

"Come and sit down, what else can you do?"

Sweat...

Lu Jing indeed felt he had overreacted a bit, but who caused this? Wasn’t it the prime culprit?

He walked over to the couch and sat down, at the same time pulling off his drying cap and gently toweling his hair.

Seeing this, Jiang Ye took matters into his own hands:

"I’ll help you."

The towel was snatched away, and Lu Jing couldn’t be bothered to quarrel; having someone to help dry his hair was more than welcome.

Thinking there would be time later to get a haircut—his hair was almost chest-length now, a bit troublesome.

The man’s movements were gentle:

"You should sleep first later on."

Lu Jing didn’t pay much attention:

"What?"

"I have night patrol tonight, will only be back after lights out, probably around ten-thirty. You sleep first, okay?"

He did understand that:

"Oh," he curled his lip.

As if someone can’t sleep without you coming back.

Jiang Ye was always helpless with this woman:

"Call me if anything happens," he instructed insistently.

Lu Jing rolled his eyes:

"What could possibly happen here?"

Unless there was another emergency in the department, there wouldn’t be other incidents in the fire brigade’s family compound.

"It’s unlikely, but we need to anticipate emergencies."

"Got it."

The response was perfunctory.

Jiang Ye really felt like spanking her; which of the men under his command would dare be so reckless in front of him?

Only this woman dared to pull hairs on the tiger’s head.

The TV showed it was now seven twenty-four. Jiang Ye stopped what he was doing:

"I’m leaving."

He stuffed the towel back into the woman’s hand.

Lu Jing nodded, but the next second he was tightly embraced and received a kiss on his forehead.

"Sleep well, I’ll try to come back early."

"Get going already!"

Tsk, what a killjoy of a woman!

Yet, it was precisely such a killjoy of a woman who was the only one in Captain Jiang’s heart!

As the saying goes, ’to each their own’; one person’s meat is another person’s poison.

...

When Jiang Ye arrived at the training ground, he was a couple of minutes late.

The men were all assembled, just waiting for him.

However, it seemed everyone in the brigade knew that Captain Jiang’s wife had cooked dinner tonight; even the rescue dogs in the backyard might have heard.

It shows that where men gather, gossip can be even more frightening than among women!

"Captain Jiang!"

"Yes, is everyone here?" he asked.

"All here."

"Then let’s begin. As usual, three times over!"

Sheesh!

No wonder he’s the Great Demon.

After these three times, they were nearly worn out.

But no one dared to complain.

Just do it honestly.

Otherwise, it could be doubled to six times, or even nine.

No one present hadn’t experienced the Great Demon’s iron-fisted methods.

Soon, the training ground echoed with the sounds of groans and cries.

Night training was from seven-thirty to nine-thirty, two hours.

Whenever it was Demon Jiang’s turn to lead, the men gave it their all, not daring to slack in the slightest.

Tsk.

Just wondering if this Devil was just as ruthless and cold-hearted in front of his sister-in-law?

Probably not quite.

...

Ten o’clock at night.

Lu Jing was ready to sleep.

But who knew, once he actually lay down, he couldn’t feel any sleepiness at all.

He closed his eyes, forcing himself to fall asleep as soon as possible.

But it seemed the more he tried, the less he felt like sleeping.

In the end, it was better to sit up.

He grabbed a military book that had been tossed on the bedside table and flipped through it.

It’s just that the stuff on there, while all the words were recognizable, formed together they just didn’t make any sense—nearly all of it was technical jargon.

Sweat...
