Chapter 292: Chapter 292: Flirting on One’s Own

"Yeah, he’s coming back soon."

I didn’t know if I was comforting the other person or myself.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chatted for a while longer before ending the phone call.

Looking at the time, it was already six twenty.

Sleeping was out of the question; it was better to just get up.

Like the previous few days, I got up, washed up, prepared something to eat, then went downstairs to work.

The streets were empty. After all, people hadn’t returned yet.

Even the families living in the residential building didn’t feel like going out.

Understandable. Everyone was worried.

....

Four more days passed.

Since the call I received in the operating room a few days ago, there had been no news.

Lu Jing had become numb.

All I did was work, ensuring I never had a moment of idleness.

Tonight was the last night shift; after it, I would have two days off.

Lu Jing had already decided to clean the house during these two days.

Unexpectedly, the next morning, the department was busy with the shift change.

Lu Jing hadn’t even noticed when someone appeared in the hallway until someone else saw it first:

"Hey, Captain Jiang?"

I almost thought I had heard wrong, or maybe someone with the same name?

When I looked up and saw the face I had been longing for these past few days, my entire body jolted.

Jiang Ye was wearing a blue uniform appropriate for spring and fall, with a large-brimmed hat on his head, drawing the attention of everyone around him.

Then he walked step by step towards this side.

Lu Jing froze in place, unable to move or even make a sound, except for my eyes that widened.

"Stunned?"

Cough cough.

"You... when did you come back?"

Just popping up out of nowhere, you could scare someone to death.

The man smiled, reached out to gently pull me into his arms, and hugged me, still wearing my white coat:

"I came back last night."

But, since I was busy writing a report, I stayed in the office all night.

It was almost dawn when I finally took a brief nap, not even an hour in total.

And now, I hurried over to pick you up.

Lu Jing snuggled into the man’s embrace, fingers tightly clutching his clothes, still not at peace.

"Are you hurt?"

"Just a superficial wound, it’s nothing."

Hisss, you’re actually hurt?

Lu Jing lifted her head to look deeply at the man before her.

Then she grasped his wrist in turn:

"Come with me."

Jiang Ye didn’t ask any questions and cheerfully followed.

We reached the treatment room, and with a ’snap,’ I shut the door.

Lu Jing was looking for medicine in front of the cabinet when suddenly she was fiercely embraced from behind.

"You..."

All the words I hadn’t managed to say were swallowed up by the man, and I was pinned tightly against the medicine cabinet, forced to endure.

After initially struggling a bit, I allowed him to do as he pleased.

Jiang Ye let out a muffled chuckle, his violent kisses never stopping.

After roughly two minutes, he stepped back a bit, his eyes darkly fixed on me.

Lu Jing’s scalp tingled, her lips flushed red; if someone walked in right now, they would instantly see what had just happened.

It was too obvious!

"Kissed you already, now to apply the medicine."

"Oh."

"Lift up wherever you’re hurt yourself."

"Are you sure?"

???

Lu Jing paused while opening the medicine box, looked up:

"Sure about what?" I retorted.

I saw the man smile with a deep meaning, then, with a ’clatter,’ he began to unbuckle his belt.

Hisss~

Lu Jing didn’t know how to react:

"Stop, stop, why are you taking off your pants?"
