Chapter 1070 - 1078 What a Coincidence

Jane Sampson looked at the two young team members running away and turned back to smile softly at James Black, "They’re quite amusing."

Those two looked even younger than her, playfully messing with each other as they ran back.

It was the age of youthful innocence, free of worries.

James felt a block in his heart, unable to decide how to feel about Jane’s comment.

His wife enjoying the atmosphere in the guard team was a good thing, but liking the people there didn’t seem to make him happy.

Amusing?

Ha.

James took Jane’s hand again and casually took the bag she was holding.

Weighing it, it was indeed not light.

"What were you about to say?" James asked. He had noticed that when those two had appeared, Jane was about to speak to him.

"Ah?" Jane blinked, confused for a moment, "I forgot."

Jane scratched her head. Was she about to say something just now?

"Goofy," James said with a chuckling voice.

Jane huffed, twisted her head, and gave James an ’you’re the goofy one’ look before she started to recall what she was going to say to him.

After thinking hard for a few seconds, Jane finally remembered, was she about to talk to James about a birthday gift?

She had actually prepared a birthday gift for him.

But she hadn’t brought it out yet.

She had planned to give it to him before sleep last night, but before sleep, she had been devoured thoroughly and later forgot.

Jane hooked her finger in the palm of James’s hand and began to speak, "When we get back home I’ll—"

"Sister-in-law!"

The words following "I" were abruptly cut off.

Another familiar-looking team member emerged from behind them, holding a bag of candy.

"Good evening, sister-in-law! Oh, this is some candy my sister brought back from abroad. I heard from Peter Gingery that you love candy, so this is for you," the team member said as he handed over a bag of fruit chewy candy to Jane, then added, "Sister-in-law, whenever you’re free, come visit us at the guard team! We really like you!"

Without waiting for James to respond, the team member cheerily ran off.

In the blink of an eye, Jane’s hand now held a bag of candy.

She slowly looked up at James Black, who was scowling, and cheekily grinned, "I’ll share half the candy with you."

James neither affirmed nor declined.

His only thought was that Jane had come to the guard team to see her husband, so what did these ’rabbit kids’ have to do with it?

"Let’s walk over there," James led Jane down another path, eager to avoid meeting more people.

When they reached a secluded spot, James finally said, "What were you saying about when we get back home? Continue?"

But as soon as James spoke, footsteps sounded from behind them.

"Sister-in-law! Chief, what a coincidence! Are you also here for an evening walk? We’re here for a walk too," two team members grinned, showing their teeth three meters ahead under the moonlight.

Jane turned around to look at her surroundings, then her gaze fell on the hands of the two team members.

So, the male members of the guard team were on such friendly terms that they’d go for a walk together hand in hand after meals?

Just like she and James, holding hands in the same manner.
