Chapter 87: Chapter 87: A Deep Sleep

"No need, you take that little kid back first," to spare their parents any worry.

Jiang Ye glanced at the chubby boy behind him:

"Him? He’s our instructor’s son, his parents are both busy today, so they asked me to come over."

Hmm?

Lu Jing frowned:

"Why are you explaining so much to me?" he asked.

Pfft~

The man curved his lips, and somehow, without knowing quite how, Little Yaoyao was already securely in his embrace:

"I didn’t want you to misunderstand, so I took the initiative to explain," he said with a meaningful tone.

Lu Jing really wanted to say: Misunderstand my ass!

But in the end, he didn’t say anything.

After pulling a 24-hour night shift, he truly was utterly exhausted.

The moment Little Yaoyao was taken away, he really felt a lot lighter all over.

Otherwise, who knows how much longer he could have held on?

"Then I’ll go back to the dormitory, I need to catch up on sleep."

"What about this little girl?"

"I’ll just get some rest, I can bring her with me, it’s not like I haven’t done it before."

When abroad, he had gotten used to it.

But Jiang Ye didn’t agree:

"If you need to sleep, she’ll come with me. There isn’t much difference between taking one or two kids."

Huh?

Lu Jing widened his eyes:

"Are you sure?" he asked suspiciously.

Yaoyao is a little girl, and that’s totally different from taking care of a little boy.

"Lu’er, are you doubting my abilities?"

Cough cough.

"No, but you have to ask Yaoyao if she agrees to go with you first."

Little Yaoyao was about to refuse when suddenly, she heard the naughty uncle say:

"Yaoyao, want to ride in a fire truck?"

Hmm?

Riding a fire truck is something that probably every little kid looks forward to.

Yaoyao, of course, was no exception, and the refusal on the tip of her tongue instantly changed to:

"I do!"

Sure enough, the person acted like he had just won a victory.

"Then you’ll come back to the station with Uncle a little later. We have lots of fire trucks at our unit, so you’ll let Mommy Lu sleep for a while, okay?"

Little Yaoyao was somewhat torn and looked at Lu Jing, questioning.

Lu Jing mustered up his energy:

"Yaoyao, do you want to go with him? If you want, Mommy Lu will come to pick you up after I wake up."

Hearing this, Little Yaoyao finally nodded:

"Mommy Lu, Yaoyao wants to ride in a fire truck."

Lu Jing smiled:

"Alright, then go with him."

The fire brigade was definitely one hundred percent safe, so there really wasn’t anything to worry about.

...

In the car, the two kids sat in the back seat.

Earlier, they had been squabbling enough to call their parents, but now they seemed to get along quite well.

The chubby boy was smugly introducing all the fun things at the station, like the many fire trucks, even a firefighting tank, a big rescue airplane, and so on.

Little Yaoyao listened intently, supported enthusiastically, and applauded on cue.

Seeing this, the two adults in front smiled.

Lu Jing really couldn’t hold up any longer:

"Wake me when we get to the dormitory."

And with that, he closed his eyes.

"Okay!"

But although he agreed readily enough,

after about fifteen minutes, when the car passed by the dormitory of Nanxi University Affiliated Hospital, it didn’t stop but continued driving straight ahead.

Eventually, the car entered the fire brigade station diagonally opposite the hospital.

Seeing they had reached the station, the chubby boy made a fuss wanting to get off:

"Uncle Jiang, I want to get out!"

Jiang Ye didn’t say a word and just glanced over.

The chubby boy immediately shut his mouth.

Oh well, they were already there and would be able to get out soon enough.

Lu Jing didn’t wake up once from beginning to end, sleeping very soundly.
