Chapter 211: Chapter 211: Need Help?
"I can. I’ve already spoken to the director about taking my last shift then."
"And are you coming back on the 1st or are you coming back on the 30th?"
Lu Jing suddenly became pensive, and when he spoke again, his voice had dropped a few notches:
"The 1st, I guess."
Who set the court date for the 30th anyway?
Thinking about it, it doesn’t seem like much time has passed, just a little over a week.
Time really flies.
In the blink of an eye, nearly two months have passed.
...
After dinner, Bai Luo took her son out for a walk:
"Girl, remember to call if you need anything!" she reminded her.
Lu Jing laughed:
"I know, sis-in-law. How come you and my brother are getting more and more alike? You never forget to nag about this."
Couples tend to resemble each other, right?
"Speaking of your brother, I heard Lao Si is here too. Do you guys keep in touch?"
Umm...
Lu Jing silently gulped, then slowly replied:
"Not really."
At this moment, Bai Luo didn’t seem to react differently.
But Little Yizhou in Bai Luo’s arms widened his eyes significantly, looking at his aunt as if to say: Auntie, you’re lying, you’re deceiving!
Seeing this, Lu Jing quickly reached out to ruffle the little one’s hair, then cracked a few smiles at him.
The little guy seemed to understand something and, after all, didn’t make a sound.
Yikes!
This lunch today had my heart bungee jumping the whole time!
"Sis-in-law, did you ask him because there is something on your mind?"
Bai Luo pursed her lips:
"A friend of mine wants to collaborate with the Jiang Family, but..."
"No go-between?"
"Yeah, as you know, it wouldn’t be right for me to approach your brother or the Jiang Family about this, so I thought maybe I could just go directly to Lao Si."
After all, out of the whole Jiang Family, she was really only somewhat familiar with Lao Si.
"Sis-in-law, how about you give me your friend’s contact information? I have Lao Si’s contact. I’ll send it to him and ask."
Bai Luo agreed:
"Okay, I’ll send it to you right away."
After getting the information, Lu Jing hailed a taxi and rushed back to the hospital.
Not until the afternoon was over.
Returning to the fire brigade, he saw someone conducting training with the team members.
He didn’t approach them but went straight to the family building.
Today he finished work a bit early and had nothing else to do, so he decided to make some dinner.
He opened the refrigerator and saw cucumbers, potatoes, beef brisket, and pea shoots.
That would do!
One smashed cucumber, one potato and beef stew, and a pea shoot and sliced meat soup.
After planning the meal, he got straight to work.
...
At about six-thirty in the evening, Jiang Ye came home.
As he opened the door, he was greeted by a wafting aroma:
"What delicious food are you making?" he asked.
Lu Jing poked his head out from the kitchen:
"You’re back?"
Jiang Ye hummed a response, changed his shoes, and then went to the bathroom to wash his face before entering the kitchen.
He could immediately see what had been cooked.
"Why did you think of rewarding me today?" he asked.
Tsk.
"What do you mean by ’today’?"
I wasn’t free before, okay?
Pfft.
"Alright, alright. Do you need any help?"
"No need. Dinner will be ready in ten minutes; you go out first."
The kitchen was narrow and hot, and having two people in there was just inconvenient.
"Okay, call me if you need anything."
After leaving the kitchen, Jiang Ye went to the study.
The never-ending work needed to be finished quickly so he could spend some time with his wife after dinner.
...
As soon as the ten minutes were up, Lu Jing called out right on time:
"Dinner’s ready!"
"Coming!"
