“Let’s eat,” Lu Xingzhi said.
Jiang Yao nodded. She lowered her head and noticed that Moe was looking up at her from under the dining table. She imitated Lu Xingzhi’s tone and said, “Let’s eat!”
He rolled his eyes at Jiang Yao from under the dining table. Then, he held his bowl in his mouth and moved to Mrs. Lu’s feet. He continued to eat his braised chicken drumsticks and ignored Jiang Yao.
The lunch did not end until one o’clock. It was time for Lu Xingzhi to go to the airport in the city to catch his flight.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMr. Lu and Mrs. Lu were already used to Lu Xingzhi’s schedule, so they went upstairs to take a break after lunch. They had to go to work in the afternoon.
Cheng Jinnian was also sent to the guest room by Mrs. Lu to take a break. Jiang Yao watched as Lu Xingzhi organized his things in the room. Then, she followed him to the gate.
“Why don’t I drive you to the airport?” Jiang Yao reached her hand toward Lu Xingzhi. “Give me the car keys.”
“No need.” He was worried about letting Jiang Yao drive the car back alone after sending him off. She still had to recuperate from her illness.
“Then I’ll take a taxi to send you to the airport, and then I’ll take a taxi back.”
“Don’t tire yourself.” Lu Xingzhi continued to shake his head.
Jiang Yao looked at Lu Xingzhi suspiciously and felt something was wrong with that guy today.
Last summer, he had tormented her the entire night without any rest. She was so sleepy that she could not even open her eyes in the morning. That guy even wanted to carry her to the car so that she could send him to the airport. Had he changed then? They had divided so quickly.
They met on a national holiday the last time, and it had been six months later!
Why did that guy want to leave so quickly?
What did he mean by not wanting to tire her? It was fine if he were afraid she would be tired from driving, but why would she be exhausted from taking a taxi? It was not like she would get carsick!
Jiang Yao poked Lu Xingzhi’s chest with her fingertips. “Do you want to go that badly?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLu Xingzhi laughed as he held the fingertips poking at his chest. “I’m afraid that you’ll be tired. Don’t think too much.”
Jiang Yao shook her head. She pouted. “Did someone in the army charm you? Do you want to spend more time with them than your wife? Is that why you’re so eager to return to base?”
“You’ve been to the army base. Be reasonable. Who would want to charm me?” Lu Xingzhi pinched Jiang Yao’s cheek and said, “Rest well at home. And eat more. When I’m back from training, I’ll give you a reward if you can return to your previous weight.”
“I don’t care.” Jiang Yao shook her head repeatedly, like a broken machine, and said, “Maybe you think some people in the army base are more charming than me. They might be competing for my husband.”
Lu Xingzhi held her in his arms for quite a while. She did not want him to leave, but she did not want to make things difficult for him. She just wanted to spend more time with him, even if it was just for a little while.
She did not know how to be unreasonable and insisted he stay and accompany her. She did not want him to leave, but she also did not want to make things difficult for him.
It made one’s heart ache.
However, he had to go. He needed to realize his ambitions and revenge. He needed a chance to grow until he was strong enough to take her under his wing.
An empty taxi drove across the road from the Lu family. Lu Xingzhi waved his hand to stop the taxi before gently pushing the person in his arms. His voice was slightly tense as he said, “Yaoyao, I have to leave now.. Take care of yourself. ”
