“Go home and rest for half a day. I have a meeting in the afternoon.” Lu Xingzhi caressed Jiang Yao’s head with his hand. “I will take you to our house to show you the fruit trees I have planted in our yard.”
“Do I have to attend the afternoon meeting?” Jiang Yao inquired.
“Yes,” Lu Xingzhi said. “Everyone involved in that exercise, including the doctors, is required to attend the group meeting.”

It was not Jiang Yao’s first visit there, so there was nothing new about the site. Her painted face drew the attention of numerous passersby.
Many people were curious about the girl who trailed after Colonel Lu. They were even more intrigued when they observed her follow him to his residence. No one dared to question him because he was a difficult person to talk to.
Some speculated that she could be a female soldier. After all, she was dressed in a field combat suit and had paint on her face. She appeared to have just returned from the war.
Jiang Yao was often worried that she had forgotten something crucial. When she walked into the house and found Lu Xingzhi running the bathwater for her, she stroked him on the back and asked, “Xingzhi, where is Liu Chao?”
“The exercise is complete. Where would they be if not with the Red Team?” Lu Xingzhi turned around to face Jiang Yao.
“And what about me?”
Jiang Yao was taken aback. “I am also a member of the Red Team’s medical staff. Logically, I should stick with them. So, what is the point of bringing me back here?”
Jiang Yao desperately wanted to cry but was unable to do so. She had been led down the mountain. Shao Fucheng saw her, but he did not say anything. He did not stop her when he noticed she was being escorted to the military card by Lu Xingzhi. As a result, she did not anticipate the rest would stay with the Red Team.
Most significantly, her ignorance was understandable. Why did no one warn her about that?

Jiang Yao considered it and concluded that what Lu Xingzhi said made sense.
The drill was completed. She was Lu Xingzhi’s wife, so what was the harm of her following Lu Xingzhi?
“The water is ready. Take a long, hot shower. I will make some more water for you. When you are done, let me know so that I can bring more hot water in for you.”
“Oh, okay.” Jiang Yao nodded. She sniffed her own arm, horrified with herself. “I smell so bad!”
Lu Xingzhi has already entered the bathroom. When he heard that, he turned around and said solemnly, “Nonsense, it is quite aromatic.”
Jiang Yao thought he was amusing. The definition of beauty lay in the eye of the beholder. How could she be unaware that Lu Xingzhi was attempting to entice her?
After being a savage for over a month, what did Jiang Yao want to do?
It was not eating a normal dinner or sleeping in a comfy bed. It was to have a relaxing bath..
