Chapter 208: Chapter 208: Stop Dreaming, It’s Not for You

Cutting a woman’s hair for the first time, Captain Jiang really was a novice.

Practice makes perfect, next time he was sure to be much better.

However, whether there would be a next time was still a question mark.

...

When Lu Jing came out again, she didn’t bother with the man on the sofa and headed straight for the bedroom.

Jiang Ye coughed, considering following her but chickened out.

Well, he might as well take a shower.

Men, a shower shouldn’t take more than five minutes to sort things out.

Inside the room, Lu Jing was already lying on the bed, eyes closed, ready to sleep.

"Wife?"

Someone halted at the doorway and called out.

Of course, Lu Jing wasn’t asleep, but she just couldn’t be bothered to respond.

"Asleep?"

"Really asleep, huh?"

Who would believe that?

Who could actually be asleep beneath Captain Jiang’s watchful eye?

Unable to suppress a few stifled chuckles, he stepped forward and then crouched by the bed, reaching out to tickle.

Lu Jing had been ticklish since she was a child and couldn’t hold back. Her eyes snapped open:

"Jiang! Ye!" she shouted through gritted teeth.

Following that, two pillows came flying toward him.

But the man caught them with precision:

"Getting sulky without saying anything?"

Hmph~

She sat up abruptly:

"You have the nerve to mention it? Just look, take a good look, I only asked for a trim, do you see how much you cut?"

The more she talked, the more agitated she became, her hands waving non-stop.

Although she could reluctantly accept the length, she was still very angry!

Did he know it would take months to grow back the length he had carelessly cut off?

Did outsiders understand how hard is it for a healthcare worker to maintain long hair?

Jiang Ye offered a weak explanation:

"Well, it was my first time cutting, my skills were rusty, not very skilled."

Lu Jing knew that, of course, but she was just too annoyed.

The last pillow was thrown:

"Scram, scram, scram, you’re sleeping outside tonight, I don’t want to see you for the time being!"

This...

"No way!"

Hmm?

"Wife, can we do something else instead?"

He hadn’t been home in days, and now he was supposed to sleep outside the bedroom like an office director—how could he agree? He definitely wouldn’t!

"Sure, on one condition—you grow my hair back!"

This...

"Wife, are you deliberately making it hard for your man?"

Hehe, good that she knew it.

Lu Jing hummed without noticing a fleeting look of frustration in the man’s eyes.

By the time she came to her senses, she was completely pinned down.

And somehow, he managed to strip her in a second.

"All yours, is that enough? If not..."

The second half of his sentence was whispered into her ear.

After hearing that, Lu Jing’s face turned bright red:

"You’re shameless!"

She couldn’t help but curse, pinching the man’s arm a few times.

He really was... too much!

Completely a scoundrel!

Just thinking of what that scoundrel said made Lu Jing tremble uncontrollably.

So embarrassing, right?

How could he say such things so casually?

He truly was, shameless to the core!

"Always the same old ’scoundrel’ and ’shameless’ insults, can’t you come up with something new? Hmm?"

Ouch!

"Jiang Ye!"

"Alright, alright, I’ll shut up."

Good, silence is golden.

...

In the middle of the night, neither of them was asleep.

Lu Jing was nestled in the man’s embrace:

"What were you chatting about with your sister-in-law?" she asked.

He had held onto his curiosity for quite some time and was only now asking.

Lu Jing, exhausted and spent:

"She wanted me to have lunch with her and Yizhou tomorrow at noon."

"Lunch?"

Lu Jing rolled her eyes:

"Don’t even think about it, you’re not invited!"

Pfft~

Jiang Ye heaved a sigh:

"Then I’ll make the arrangements."

Lu Jing didn’t refuse this suggestion:

"Alright!"
