Fire Chief vs. Surgeon: A Tale of Relentless Pursuit
Chapter 410: The Day of the Inspection

Chapter 410: Chapter 410: The Day of the Inspection

Time flies, and before I knew it, a week had passed.

Today was the day we had made an appointment to go for a medical checkup.

Early in the morning, Jiang Ye couldn’t stay asleep and climbed out of bed.

Seeing his wife sleeping soundly beside him, he didn’t have the heart to disturb her and carefully left the room.

After that, he went to the living room and started doing push-ups.

One, two, three... two hundred ninety-nine, three hundred!

After completing exactly three hundred push-ups, someone finally calmed down.

At this time, Lu Jing awoke and somehow stood at the door watching, yawning away.

It was only after the man finished and rested that he spoke up,

"What’s with the early start?"

So spirited?

Tsk tsk.

Whether or not someone is spirited, don’t you, as his wife, know all too well?

Shouldn’t you be the clearest on that?

Jiang Ye smoothly got up from the floor,

"Awake?"

Lu Jing nodded,

"What time is it?" he asked.

The man glanced at the phone thrown on the coffee table,

"Six fifty."

No wonder I woke up hungry.

But since we’re going for a health checkup in a bit, we can’t eat anything.

The hunger would just have to wait.

"What’s wrong?"

"Hungry."

Jiang Ye couldn’t help but laugh when he heard that, but at the end, he barely uttered three words,

"Hold out."

Lu Jing rolled her eyes and turned back to the bedroom, flopping onto the big bed intending to get some more sleep. If she slept, she wouldn’t feel hungry.

Jiang Ye followed her back in,

"Can you drink water?" he asked.

He was quite concerned about his wife’s empty stomach.

"Can’t, can only sip a little."

"Then should we get up? If we go early, we’ll finish early and can eat sooner?"

Lu Jing lazily lifted her head,

"Wishful thinking, how could it be? It’s all done by number!"

Unless you cut corners.

And don’t put it past him; he might just be considering that.

"Maybe..."

He didn’t even finish his sentence before getting interrupted by his wife,

"No, that won’t do!"

It was a small matter, not worth exploiting connections for.

Isn’t it a hassle?

Do you know how many favors that would involve?

The Jiang Family might be prominent and affluent, but that’s no excuse to squander it!

Besides, such a style of doing things was definitely not encouraged, too capitalistic.

After getting an earful from his wife, Jiang Ye could only touch his nose and let it go.

But Lu Jing really couldn’t sleep anymore,

"Get out, I need to change clothes," she said irritably.

That certainly amused him,

"Have I not seen every part of you? It’s just changing clothes, is it really necessary?"

And with that, he really didn’t leave!

Lu Jing didn’t truly want him to leave, it was just talk.

Seeing him stick around lazily, she couldn’t be bothered with him and began to change into clothes and pants she pulled from the wardrobe.

All the while, her peripheral vision never glanced at the man standing not too far away.

After getting dressed, it was almost seven o’clock.

"Move aside, I’m going to wash up!"

"Oh."

The man then sidestepped slightly.

Afterward, during Lu Jing’s washing-up time, Jiang Ye came downstairs.

By the time he reached the canteen, the team members hadn’t yet come in, they were still running drills outside.

Naturally, there was no rush, so he methodically got some eggs, steamed buns, dumplings, fried rice with egg, and a box of milk, stacking up an entire tray of food.

For an ordinary person, it might take three mornings to finish that amount, right?

But what could you do? The people in the fire brigade already had a tremendous amount of training every day, not to mention being ready to go out for rescues at any moment.

If you didn’t eat well, how could you have the energy to work?

So, everyone’s appetite was indeed quite big.

Chapter 412

When Jiang Ye had almost finished eating, the team members started trickling in.

They were initially laughing and joking around in pairs and threes, but as soon as they spotted the figure sitting on this side, they instantly quieted down and stopped horsing around.

"Captain Jiang, good morning!"

"Morning!"

Jiang Ye was in a good mood and, atypically patient, smiled and responded kindly to everyone.

But that smile scared everyone terribly.

After all, a smile from the Devil is worse than no smile at all!

One by one, they greeted him and then scurried away, seating themselves at the farthest spots to eat.

Jiang Ye didn’t dawdle for long. After eating, he carried his tray over to the sink.

After washing it, he put the tray back in the sterilizing cabinet and, out of the corner of his eye, saw the group of kids. His lips twitched involuntarily a few times before he left the canteen.

As soon as Jiang Ye was gone, the canteen finally returned to its usual bustling state.

The group had nearly been suffocated just now.

"But the Great Demon hadn’t been coming to the canteen for breakfast for quite a long time, had he? Why did he show up today?"

"Who knows?"

"It couldn’t be that the Great Demon managed to make the wife angry, so she didn’t make breakfast for him, could it?"

"Cough cough, have you forgotten? That Devil at home is a classic henpecked husband!"

True, that day several team members had seen it firsthand, and naturally, the tale spread far and wide.

....

Regarding the various discussions in the canteen, Jiang Ye, the main character, naturally had no clue.

If he ever found out, ten kilometers were definitely in order, plus five hundred push-ups, and five hundred squat jumps!

Let’s see if you still have the energy to gossip then!

These cowards were only so daring.

In the family housing, Lu Jing had finished getting ready and was just waiting for someone to come back.

Of course, she guessed he had certainly gone to the canteen to eat, so she didn’t call to hurry him or anything.

The ’click’ of the door lock turning was heard, and after that, Jiang Ye’s figure appeared at the doorway.

"Is everything ready?" he asked smoothly.

Lu Jing nodded,

"Pretty much."

"Then wait for me five minutes."

"Okay."

Five minutes were enough for the man to wash up, shower, and change his clothes.

Except that when he came out of the bathroom, he was still dripping water everywhere, making the floor all wet.

Lu Jing had reminded him many times, but it was no use; the man continued to do as he pleased, so she didn’t bother reminding him anymore.

While he was changing his clothes, she took a mop and dried the wet floor.

Actually, what’s most important for two people living together is mutual understanding and tolerance.

Like for such a simple thing, there’s no need to make a huge fuss, right?

Normally, men definitely tend to be more indulgent of women.

So, occasionally at times, women should also learn to be considerate of the men, shouldn’t they?

Whether it’s lovers or spouses, at least there should be a spirit of cooperation. Only then can the relationship be closer and more secure!

Otherwise, you might end up with chaos.

Jiang Ye came out of the room dressed in a casual outfit that Lu Jing had casually picked out for him while shopping.

It was a very simple and ordinary style, but worn on Jiang Ye, it immediately seemed like a feel of bespoke luxury from abroad.

The old saying really wasn’t wrong: "The Buddha relies on gold, a person on their clothing!"

"Wife, how do I look?"

He clearly wanted some praise.

Lu Jing, of course, was very satisfied, feeling thrilled to see such a handsome man first thing in the morning, any woman would be!

Moreover, this handsome guy wasn’t someone else’s, he was exclusively hers!
