Can’t Take My Eyes Off You

Jiang Yao cleaned the tent and fell asleep soundly.

A nice breeze was blowing, and the noises of insects and birds could be heard.

Jiang Yao would have been able to sleep till the next morning if Lu Xingzhi had not awakened her in the middle of the night.

Jiang Yao was still sleeping when Lu Xingzhi woke her up. She thought she was at home until she opened her eyes and discovered it was Lu Xingzhi who had woken her up again. She was disgruntled, so she covered his face with her palm, took the blanket, and went back to sleep.

“Get up, Yaoyao. I will bring you out for some meat. If you do not get up, I will kiss you,” Lu Xingzhi said into her ear as he hauled her up.

Jiang Yao sniffed and massaged her eyes. “What kind of meat?”

“Come with me, and you will understand. Put on your clothing and follow me.” Lu Xingzhi took her coat, then pulled something from his suitcase and handed it to Jiang Yao. “The dew is thick in the mountains at this time. You should put on a different outfit.”

Jiang Yao laughed and nodded her head. She sat there like an idiot, holding the clothing in her hands, not moving at all.

Lu Xingzhi could tell she was not awake because of how she looked. He chose to assist her in putting on her clothing because she was still in a state where her reactions were delayed.

Jiang Yao woke up five minutes later, after she had put on her clothing. She paid attention to Lu Xingzhi while carrying the bottle on her back. When she saw Moe, she put him into her coat pocket.

After the two of them left the command center, Jiang Yao followed Lu Xingzhi and walked lightly like a cat. However, Lu Xingzhi did not bring Jiang Yao to the stream. Instead, he brought Jiang Yao to the edge of a pool.

The pool was a little far from the command center. They walked for over 30 minutes before they arrived. When they arrived, Lu Xingzhi tidied a space for Jiang Yao and then let her sit there and wait. He stood by the side and began to take off his clothes.

“Lu Xingzhi, why are you taking off your clothes?”

Jiang Yao was enraged. If he brought her there to have sex in the middle of the night, she would kick him into the pool without hesitation.

“Why do you think I’m taking off my clothes?” Lu Xingzhi asked in return. “Do you think I want to f*ck you?”

Jiang Yao gritted her teeth and looked at the man who had stripped down to a short-sleeved t-shirt. “You said you wanted to bring me here to enjoy some meat!”

Lu Xingzhi said calmly, “Yeah, I was preparing to go into the water to fish for you. Otherwise, what did you think I was going to do? Look at your lustful expression. You’re dreaming in this wilderness.”

Then, Lu Xingzhi jumped into the water.

The water came to a little above Lu Xingzhi’s waist. After he jumped in, he shouted at Jiang Yao, “Pass me the flashlight and the spear.”

Jiang Yao stood up and handed the flashlight and the spear to him. Then, she watched as Lu Xingzhi shone the flashlight on the water. He stood there without moving, holding the spear in one hand, his eyes focused on the surface of the water.

Only then did Jiang Yao realize that he meant to catch fish when he said he was bringing her meat. There were fish in the pond, and the fish would follow the light at night, so it would be easier to catch them than during the day.

However, he knew that she had misunderstood, so he had to explain it clearly. Why did he still say those words that made her even more misunderstood?

It was getting progressively worse with him!

What did he mean by her wishful thinking?

What did she think?
