Chapter 35: Chapter 35: Isn’t it Just a Hickey?

Operating Room.

It took about three hours, and the surgery Lu Jing was leading had concluded.

Even though the temperature in the operating room was actually quite low, both doctors and nurses had sweat beading on their foreheads at this moment.

Lu Jing exhaled deeply,

"Wake him up."

"Alright, Doctor Lu."

Reaching up to wipe the sweat from his forehead, some of it had already streamed down his cheeks to his neck.

While wiping off the sweat, he didn’t pay much attention and ended up exposing part of his collar.

Cough, cough.

The Nurse Director, who was counting the surgical instruments, coughed uncomfortably twice before leaning in close to Lu Jing’s ear,

"Mr. Lu, cover this up."

Her face was full of teasing.

Lu Jing first stared blankly for a moment before he abruptly realized what she meant, and quickly reached up to adjust his collar.

No longer caring about the heat, he buttoned it up to the top.

But his face still flushed to behind the ears.

"I, uh..."

He was in a rush to explain.

Really, it was too embarrassing.

At this moment, Lu Jing wished he could bite a certain shameless man to death!

The Nurse Director’s teasing smile never ceased:

"Come on, we’re not children. We all have been through it. No need to be shy, Mr. Lu.

It’s just a love bite, isn’t it?

Such a normal thing!"

Previously, he had heard that married women speak and joke with great audacity—Lu Jing had now truly witnessed it.

But, it was not a love bite; it was clearly a bite from that stinky man.

Sweat, this is not easy to explain!

The more he tried to explain, the more unclear it became, and the more the Nurse Director would laugh.

Forget it!

....

Fire Brigade, Brigade Commander’s Office.

"Old Jiang, how do you think we should arrange this training?"

"You decide."

Coach Qin shook his head quickly:

"No, no, no, you’re the brigade commander, it’s up to you."

He also wanted to leave more time to spend with his son.

Just as Jiang Ye was about to speak, he couldn’t control himself and sneezed several times.

Achoo! Achoo! Achoo!

Immediately, Coach Qin found it amusing, and couldn’t help but tease:

"Old Jiang, looks like someone is thinking of you!"

Jiang Ye shot him a look, then said somberly:

"Thinking my ass, cursing is more like it."

Pfft!

He did have some self-awareness, after all.

Coach Qin caught the gist immediately, his curiosity piqued to the max:

"What’s up? Is there really a situation? Who is it?"

He asked, hopping down from the desk.

Seriously?

In Coach Qin’s words, it’s serious!

After all, ever since this guy joined the brigade six years ago, he has been like a woman repellent, never having much interaction with women. Even with the brigade commander’s princess chasing him for two years, this guy didn’t budge an inch.

If it were anyone else, they probably would have been smitten by now.

After all, that’s the brigade commander’s daughter!

Jiang Ye rolled his eyes at his partner:

"You really want to know?"

"Of course!"

"It’s not that I can’t tell you, this training plan..."

"I’ll write it!"

His agreement was swift.

Indeed, not only women love gossip, when men start gossiping, they can even outdo women!

Jiang Ye’s gaze shifted to the window, just in sight of the Nanxi University Affiliated Hospital building, and he slowly said:

"Old Qin, how old is your son?" he asked.

???

"Four."

Four?

Jiang Ye pursed his lips:

"If there hadn’t been those misunderstandings with her back then, and if the child had been successfully born, he would be five years old today."

"What?"

Old Qin was extremely shocked.

This...

If it hadn’t come from Old Jiang himself, he would never have known.

"So, what exactly was the misunderstanding?"

How did it reach such a point?

Jiang Ye slowly shook his head:

"There was a bit of everything, the problem was with me. It was my fault for not handling things properly, which caused her to suffer so much."

Hiss~
