Chapter 136 (1/2)
Jiao said nothing on the way home, but the moment Jiang Zhengkai and Jiao entered the house, Jiao took off her high-heels and placed them neatly on the shoe rack. Then, she slipped off to the bedroom instead of showering or cooking dinner. She covered herself with the blanket and held her legs up to her chest while staring blankly into s.p.a.ce.
“What’s the matter?” Jiang Zhengkai changed into his slippers, rinsed his mouth and washed his face before entering the bedroom. “Honey, are you still upset about the matter with the surveillance cameras?”
“Humph! You knew!” Jiao exclaimed in a slightly sobbing tone. “You! You knew that there was going to be surveillance, but you didn’t let me know ahead of time.”
“Didn’t you also know this beforehand?” Jiang Zhengkai wanted to wrap Jiao into a hug in his arms, but Jiao violently twisted her body and contorted her shoulders to avoid his touch. “Humph! You b.a.s.t.a.r.d. Don’t touch me. Aren’t you guys going to keep records of the surveillance? Now it makes me feel like I am going to be in a p.o.r.nographic movie.”
“Don’t worry! I have already spoken to the technology department. The camera lens that we’ll be using are frosted. They won’t be able to see any details of what we’ll be doing,” Jiang Zhengkai smiled as he comforted Jiao. However, this was also a reminder to himself. Tomorrow, he had to ask the technology department to see if they could blur the images of them…
“Really?” Jiao looked at Jiang Zhengkai suspiciously. Women have a tendency to fall for men’s lies. They typically believe that men are smarter than themselves and were born to protect them.
“Yes!” Jiang Zhengkai nodded his head solemnly. To convince Jiao, he knew that he could not show any hesitation. Otherwise, Jiao would definitely change her mind and reject their current plan. Men could be very heartless, but they were usually weak towards their sweethearts. Even if they were able to be steel their hearts and be cruel, their hearts would usually soften when they saw their sweetheart’s tears.
“Fine! Honey, hug me.” Jiao nodded her head slightly. Jiang Zhengkai brought Jiao into his arms and felt the coldness of her body with his warmth. Clearly, Jiao was very conflicted and scared about the matter of the surveillance cameras.
“Honey, will you always love me?” Jiao softly murmured as she was embraced by Jiang Zhengkai. Jiang Zhengkai tightened his arms around Jiao and responded with one simple word. “Yes!”
The next morning, Jiang Zhengkai went to the bureau early to start his work for the day. Yet, Jiao hadn’t nagged him about going to work with him. At the same time, she didn’t accept Cui Jing or anyone else’s invitations to go out. She went to the supermarket and the grocery store to buy quite a bit of food to bring home. She wanted to cook a sumptuous dinner for Jiang Zhengkai. This may possibly be my last dinner with Jiang Zhengkai.
In the morning at work, Jiang Zhengkai called the colleagues of the technology department. He specifically made a request for them to blur out the images to the best of their abilities. Although Jiang Zhengkai was a police officer, he was first and foremost a man. Men didn’t like other men viewing their woman’s private body parts. Of course, there were always exceptions for special cases. But in general, men would always try to avoid these special cases if possible.
After Jiang Zhengkai made his request, the colleagues of the technology department thought of ways to remodel the surveillance camera so that a blurry image would be produced when the surveillance camera was facing the bed. Naturally, Jiang Zhengkai felt much better after this was done. In fact, this decision probably caused Jiang Zhengkai to feel happy and untroubled for the rest of the day. All of a sudden, Jiang Zhengkai felt as if he had grown ten years younger.
At night, Jiao gave Jiang Zhengkai a call when he was about to get off of work. “Honey, you don’t need to work overtime tonight, right? Are you coming home for dinner?”
“Come home for dinner? Sure!” Jiang Zhengkai responded without any hesitation. “What do you want to eat? I’ll buy it for you.”
