NovelEnglishChapter 2032: I’m Looking For Him
After Lu Xingzhi returned to the kitchen, the first thing he did was to count all the sodas in the fridge. He thought he had to give them all to Zhou Junmin and the other kids to drink the next morning. He could not leave any at home.
He did not even know when Jiang Yao had brought those bottles of soda, nor did he know what she had hidden in her backpack every day.
Jiang Yao did not get to drink an iced soft drink as she had hoped. Lu Xingzhi gave her a plate of fruit, which was better than nothing. Just as she looked at the popsicles with great envy, there was a knock on the door.
Seeing that Lu Xingzhi was about to come out of the kitchen, Jiang Yao said, “Someone is knocking on the door. I’ll take a look. It’s probably Zhou Junmin.”Support our

Seeing that Lu Xingzhi was about to come out of the kitchen, Jiang Yao said, “Someone is knocking on the door. I’ll take a look. It’s probably Zhou Junmin.” Jiang Yao was the closest to Zhou Junmin, so she could only think of him.
So, she was surprised to see Colonel Ye when she opened the door.
“Colonel Lu is at home too, right? I saw him come home with you just now.”
Colonel Ye stood at the door and looked at Jiang Yao, who had opened the door. “I’m looking for Colonel Lu.”
Even though she did not like his daughter, Colonel Ye did not do anything to let her down. Colonel Ye was there for Lu Xingzhi, and he was a neighbor, so Jiang Yao politely invited him into their house. Then, she stood in the living room and called out to Lu Xingzhi, “Colonel Ye is looking for you.”
Then, she poured a glass of water for Colonel Ye and invited him to eat the fruits on the table.
Lu Xingzhi responded in the kitchen, but he was in no hurry to greet their guest. He waited until the water in the pot was empty before he walked out.
He was dressed very casually and wore a very pink apron.
Colonel Ye knew that Lu Xingzhi doted on his wife, Jiang Yao. He also heard that when Lu Xingzhi returned home, he would wash clothes, cook, and do other chores.
Colonel Ye was a male chauvinist, so he was not used to that scene.
...
When he was young, he was taught that men would be in charge of everything outside their home while the women would take care of their home. Men should not stay in the kitchen all day like women, let alone cook.
“Colonel Lu is really as caring as the rumors say,” Colonel Ye suppressed the shock in his heart and said meaninglessly. It seemed to be a compliment, but there was no meaning to it.

Lu Xingzhi did not feel that it was inappropriate for his comrades to see him like that. He stood there and spoke to Colonel Ye without even taking off his apron.
The way he looked made it clear that if Colonel Ye had not said he was looking for him, he would not have come out of the kitchen. After talking to Colonel Ye, he would still have to return to the kitchen to cook. To put it more bluntly, he was hinting to Colonel Ye that he did not have that much time to talk to
Captain Ye.
“I’m sorry about what happened with Xueli, but I thought the matter would be over after I sent her back to my hometown.”
Captain Ye’s tone was filled with suppressed anger. “It’s true that Xueli did something wrong, but haven’t you already punished her enough, Colonel Lu? I’ve also punished her. I’ve also expressed in the apology letter that I won’t let her appear in the army base anymore. I’ll marry her off to an honest man in our hometown. Why aren’t you satisfied? Why did you have to go so far?”
How could Colonel Ye not be angry?
As a father, he had apologized to Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi on behalf of Ye Xueli, his unfilial daughter. He had even written an apology letter..
