Chapter 455: Chapter 455: Stacking Arhats

Wait, what is that supposed to mean?

"I...."

"Why didn’t you tell me immediately when you got all these red rashes? Huh?"

Jiang Ye had arrived before dinner, which was nearly two hours ago.

All this time, the woman hadn’t mentioned a word.

So, of course, the man was very angry!

This time it was just rashes, but what about next time? What if it was life-threatening?

Lu Jing was stunned by the questioning:

"It’s just a minor issue..."

There’s really no need to make a fuss, okay?

Everyone is here to work, not to vacation, constantly busy as anything; Lu Jing felt a bit awkward asking for help from others.

Although her smelly man had shown up at noon, given it was broad daylight and in public view, how could she bring it up?

Jiang Ye didn’t buy the woman’s explanation:

"What do you mean, ’a minor issue’?"

Cough cough.

Lu Jing choked:

"Isn’t it just a minor issue?"

Could it possibly be a serious problem?

At that moment, the corners of his mouth started twitching.

Was this person being a bit too dramatic?

Jiang Ye tugged at the corner of his mouth, apparently sighing again, before pulling her back into his arms and saying earnestly:

"Wife, no issue of yours is a minor issue to me, you know?"

It means: Anything concerning you is a big deal!

What could Lu Jing possibly say?

One can’t always be overly sensitive, right?

She didn’t struggle either, obediently allowing herself to be held, and as for any previous anger or whatever, it had all evaporated.

The two just held each other, and didn’t do anything else.

In this crappy place, what could they do without the neighbors hearing?

"Why did you come?" She finally asked.

The man snorted proudly:

"Still have the nerve to ask? You tell me why?"

Lu Jing curled her lip:

"How would I know?"

The next second, he pinched a bit of flesh around her waist, of course, not painfully.

Eesh~

"What are you doing? Stop groping."

The man then withdrew his hand:

"I didn’t see you at home, then I heard you’d gone to the countryside, so I asked around and came here after I was done."

He said it quite succinctly, but it meant he had been up all night.

This point he didn’t mention, and there was no need to mention.

Lu Jing moved her lips but ultimately didn’t say anything.

But she could pretty much guess, especially with those very obvious dark circles under his eyes, which spoke volumes.

"You should sleep for a bit."

Yet the man didn’t let go:

"I’m not sleeping."

Lu Jing twisted her body:

"Do sleep, look at those dark circles, how long has it been since you’ve had a good rest?"

Cough cough.

The man couldn’t refute this point.

After all, how could he argue when his wife was as professional a doctor as one could be?

"If I sleep, what about you?"

Lu Jing had just yawned widely:

"I’ll sleep too, I’ll go sleep on Doctor Wei’s bed."

This tiny wooden bed wasn’t even a meter wide, definitely too small for two people.

Jiang Ye really wanted to say: No problem, we can sleep stacked like logs.

But before he could speak, the woman had already laid down on another wooden bed nearby.

Lu Jing hadn’t rested well last night either, and had been longing for some sleep.

Now there was only about an hour available for sleep, better make the best of it.

Seeing this, Jiang Ye silently sighed; seeing his wife so tired, he finally lay down quietly without causing any more trouble.

....

During the one-hour nap, it felt like she had just laid down when it was already time to get up.

After waking up, Lu Jing didn’t immediately sit up but lay in bed, dazed, for quite a while.
