Chapter 164: Chapter 164: A Basket Full of Sweet Nothings

Jiang Ye just found her adorable and crouched down, pulling the woman closer:

"What did I do wrong this time?" he countered.

Lu Jing huffed coldly:

"You tell me."

"Well, I wouldn’t know."

Who would admit being a jerk voluntarily?

The woman snuggled into the man’s embrace and soon, he wrapped her with the blanket and picked her up.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Caught off guard and lifted into the air, she was quite startled.

"Going out to eat!"

Huh?

Yeah, it was already noon.

Whose fault was that?

Wasn’t it because someone was way too energetic last night, making it hard to get up early today?

Thinking of this, Lu Jing was fuming.

"Jiang Ye, you BT! Hoodlum! Liar!"

Wow, that’s a lot of resentment, huh?

But, they didn’t really blame him wrongly.

He knew full well how awful he had been.

But as Jiang would say, "I’ve been gone for six years, and having finally managed to get it, shouldn’t I properly indulge?"

Shouldn’t he at least try to reclaim some of the past six years’ debts, or at least gather some interest?

Thus, as concluded, a man can’t stay austere for too long.

Otherwise, isn’t it the woman who ends up at a disadvantage?

"How about we eat first, and you can scold me after we’re full?"

Pfft~

Could Lu Jing still scold him?

She only knew a few curse words to begin with.

"I need a shower."

"Didn’t I already bathe you?"

"I want another, I don’t feel comfortable," she whispered very softly.

Jiang understood completely:

"Alright, I’ll carry you there."

Lu Jing certainly didn’t refuse:

"Bring me a nightgown."

"Okay."

Men, as long as they are satisfied, they’re easy to handle.

That’s why there’s a saying: "Men are creatures that think with their ’XXX.’"

....

After a warm shower, she finally felt comfortable.

Even her stiff arms and legs could stretch out now.

When she came out of the bathroom, she saw the man setting up food in the dining area.

The fire brigade’s cafeteria food was actually quite tasty, though communal pots couldn’t compare to individual stir-fries.

Lu Jing sauntered over slowly, the man considerately pulled out a chair for her, and everything was set up, short of feeding her.

Regarding this, Lu Jing was quite pleased.

"The fire department is organizing an event in a few days."

An event?

Lu Jing lifted her head:

"What event?"

"A fan meeting."

"Huh?"

The fire department has fans now?

Having been abroad for a few years, Lu Jing was indeed out of touch with these domestic changes.

The man nodded:

"You can bring your friends to participate."

Lu Jing pursed her lips:

"Are you sure it’s a fan meeting and not some sort of matchmaking event?"

She was really skeptical.

Jiang Ye laughed:

"If there are mutual interests, it’s not impossible, our brigade has too many single people and higher-ups have ordered we resolve their personal issues as soon as possible!"

Lu Jing smacked her lips:

"So, you want me to..."

Wow, using her too.

Jiang Ye coughed but didn’t deny it:

"Wife, just help your man out."

Being a captain was really stressful!

Every time he met with his superiors, this issue was unavoidable.

Fortunately, Jiang himself was no longer part of those needing resolution.

Lu Jing didn’t agree outright:

"I’ll ask around, if someone is willing to come, then we’ll see."

As for whether it would work out, that wasn’t guaranteed.

She hadn’t organized such events before!

Lu Jing didn’t realize that as the captain’s wife, she would encounter many more such instances in the future.

Captain Jiang was especially attentive this noon, and his mouth was full of sweet nothings.

"The wife is wonderful!"

"My wife is so conscientious!"

"Wife, you’ve worked hard!"

A basketful of sweet talk.
