Fire Chief vs. Surgeon: A Tale of Relentless Pursuit
Chapter 213: You promised me, that won’t change, right?

Chapter 213: Chapter 213: You promised me, that won’t change, right?

Lu Jing frowned, looked up, and gazed deeply at Jiang Ye:

"A week left," he said quietly.

Hmm?

The man immediately realized what was being referred to and his expression froze for a second before he nodded:

"Right."

"Jiang Ye, the thing you promised me, there won’t be any changes, right?"

For example, Jiang Family intervening.

Jiang Ye sighed:

"How is that possible? Unless I agree, no one can change it at all!"

Unless the family really wants to break with him over an outsider.

But even so, Jiang Ye wouldn’t just let it go.

After all, he might never have children in his life!

So, if it really comes to that, Jiang Ye would definitely fight till the bitter end!

...

Time flew by, and a week had already passed.

The department had been uneasy since noon, many people were eagerly waiting to finish work on time.

The long National Day holiday had finally arrived and, of course, everyone wanted to enjoy a good trip.

And those with a rotational holiday tomorrow were even happier, with an extra day off, they completely had enough time to fly abroad.

Of course, countries in Europe and America were out of the question, but the nearby smaller countries weren’t bad, just a few hours by plane, very convenient, and everyone’s annual first choice.

Lu Jing was on a twenty-four-hour shift and would get off work only after noon the day after tomorrow.

The official holiday starts on the 1st and then back to work on the 7th, a total of six days off.

He didn’t plan to go out, as he’d grown tired of being abroad in previous years and now just wanted to stay at home, being with his parents and family, which was incredibly fulfilling.

So, he wouldn’t go home tonight.

Jiang Ye was even busier, as during the holidays, that’s when the firefighters really need to be on high alert.

Not only did they have to respond to emergencies, but they also had to patrol and stand guard around the clock.

Of course, hospitals weren’t slack either, as accidents were not uncommon during holidays.

After all, everyone was off work, all hyped up as if on adrenaline, ready to start a fight at any moment.

"Doctor Lu, where are you planning to go for fun?"

Lu Jing suddenly snapped back to reality:

"Ah? Me? I’m not planning to go out; I just want to go home and sleep until I wake up naturally."

That demand wasn’t too low.

He usually didn’t have this opportunity!

"What about Captain Jiang?"

"He probably doesn’t have time to go out either."

Otherwise, he would have mentioned it by now.

But so far, nothing had been brought up.

It must mean no plans were made.

"Where are you guys going?" Lu Jing asked in return.

"Planning to take the kids to Dali, their dad has been talking about it since last year but we never managed to go."

Lu Jing smiled:

"Then have a great time, enjoy yourselves."

"Absolutely!"

The whole afternoon was much quieter than usual, with just a few people scattered around.

Sometimes it’s really hard to figure out what to say. Once it’s a holiday, the hospital instantly empties out.

Then why are there so many people usually?

Clearly, many don’t actually need to go to the hospital, but nowadays social welfare is particularly good, and it costs hardly anything, so they might as well visit the hospital for peace of mind.

What can a doctor do?

It’s not like they can just turn people away.

Some people, if you tell them they’re not sick, they can even start getting agitated with you.

Sigh...

At dinner time, the cafeteria was almost half empty.

Lu Jing had little appetite, nibbled a few bites, and then decided not to continue eating.

On leaving the cafeteria, he wandered around downstairs for a few rounds, then went to the convenience store next door and bought some snacks, planning to eat them while staying up late at night, before carrying them back to the office.
