Chapter 187: Chapter 187: Did I Really Hurt Jiang Ye Once?

Jiang Ye felt a sudden relief, as if a huge stone had vanished all at once.

"Hehe, I knew my wife understood me best."

Great, the brown-nosing had started.

Lu Jing’s lips twitched a couple of times:

"Aren’t you going to the front?" he asked.

He probably despised the idea.

Jiang Ye hummed:

"If you’re not going, why should I? Those kinds of events are only suitable for those young people."

It’s better to maintain dignity and avoid unnecessary trouble when you have a family; otherwise, you’re really screwed.

Lu Jing couldn’t help wanting to laugh, hearing that from Jiang certainly had a certain flavor.

Then suddenly he said:

"Then you enjoy yourself, I’m going to watch the performance at the front!"

This was the first time Lu Jing was seeing the performance live, and besides, a few colleagues were still there. He couldn’t just abandon them, could he?

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ye raised his eyebrows, his tone sour:

"What? You haven’t had enough of your man all day? Greedy for other men now?"

This...

Lu Jing didn’t bother with this nonsensical topic and just walked away.

Leaving Captain Jiang standing there, dumbfounded for a moment, before he awkwardly touched his nose and headed for the office.

Over the years, the fire brigade had held several events annually, such as the 119 Fire Festival, Party Founding Day, Youth Day, and Mid-Autumn Festival.

It involved inviting school children for visits or competing in matches with other units, or networking, and so forth.

But Jiang Ye, except for when it was his turn to compete, was nowhere to be seen any other time.

The fan meeting only started last year. Well, one must keep up with the times, and of course, it served to better educate the public on fire and disaster prevention issues. That was the primary goal.

As for whether anyone would find their match during these events—that was up to fate.

However, each time there were usually at least one or two successful pairings.

...

By the time Lu Jing returned to his spot, the various displays on stage had ended, and now Instructor Qin was leading three firefighters in singing "Devotion to Duty."

"The beacon fire rises, looking over the northern landscapes;

The dragon flags curl as the horses whinny;

The sword’s energy cold as frost, heart vast as the Yellow River..."

Although they were slightly off tune, the spirit was definitely there, and the audience responded warmly with continual applause.

"Good, let’s have another!"

"Yes, yes, another one."

However, there was only that one song on the program. After that, they were supposed to head to the training grounds.

Now that they were here, how could they not show off the firefighters’ routine training?

Lu Jing stood up, and at that moment, Nurse Xiao Tang asked quietly:

"Doctor Lu, where’s your partner?"

He hadn’t been seen since the event started.

Lu Jing coughed:

"He must be busy."

Chances are, he never came over and had gone to his office, ninety-nine percent sure.

It had to be said, during the time they had lived together, Lu Jing had completely figured out his habits and routines again.

Normally, the most he did was play basketball; certainly, he had no other hobbies.

Sometimes, Lu Jing even wondered if her own actions six years ago had really hurt him?

Such a big change!

Indeed, he could be particularly sensitive and petty at times.

He used to not be like this, quite domineering and self-centered.

Now, though, he had learned not only to consider issues from others’ perspectives but also to obediently follow advice.

Naturally, having gone through a gut-wrenching experience once, he probably couldn’t go through it again.

That would truly drive him insane!
