Can’t Take My Eyes Off You

“She said that it might be a delayed reaction from her pregnancy. She should get better after a brief period.” Lu Xingzhi tried to comfort the four seniors. “It’s late. You guys should rest early.”

Jiang Yao’s parents knew that Lu Xingzhi must be very tired. They felt sorry for Lu Xingzhi when they saw how hard their son-in-law worked. However, when they thought about how Jiang Yao had to suffer so much to be with him, they felt even sorrier for their daughter.

Even though Lu Xingzhi treated Jiang Yao well, he was a soldier. There was a limit to how much time he could spend with Jiang Yao. Of course, that was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that Lu Xingzhi was a soldier. He might have many enemies.

Mr. and Mrs. Jiang finally understood a little more that day. Lu Xingzhi’s enemies wanted to seek revenge, and they had even targeted Jiang Yao’s child.

Their son-in-law had put their daughter in danger.

Mr. Jiang sighed in his heart. If something happened to Jiang Yao, he and his wife would regret agreeing to marry her to Lu Xingzhi.

Hopefully, Lu Xingzhi would protect their daughter.

Lu Xingzhi took a shower before returning to the bedroom. Jiang Yao was already asleep, and he did not wake her up when he went to bed.

Her two cheeks were flushed while she slept. Perhaps it was warm in the room.

Jiang Yao had always hated the heat. She hated it even more after she got pregnant.

Lu Xingzhi checked her forehead. After confirming that she was not sweating, he pulled the thin blanket covering her stomach and covered her chest.

The blanket was pink. Jiang Yao had bought it herself. When Lu Xingzhi saw the color, he smiled. She had always said that pink was too childish, but she did like the color.

He always thought that she had the heart of a young girl.

The investigation into Sergeant Hu’s family did not yield any results. Sergeant Hu’s father was one of the few people who knew the truth about that matter.

Therefore, Sergeant Hu’s family was very cooperative with the investigation. However, Sergeant Hu’s father always avoided his family members. Even Sergeant Hu did not understand his father’s affairs.

Chu Sheng and Chen Xuyao stayed at the army base for two days before leaving. When they returned, Chu Sheng forcefully threw Chen Xuyao’s things back at him and did not let Chen Xuyao touch her luggage again. Chen Xuyao returned to Jindo City with a regretful expression on his face.

Jiang Yao had taken a leave of absence from school again. Li Hong and the others did not know why Jiang Yao had taken a leave of absence, but they were already used to the fact that Jiang Yao would not be at the school every few days. On the other hand, after Professor Ouyang learned about Jiang Yao’s accident, he went to the army base. Cheng Jinnian had gone there too.

When Lu Xingzhi went to the entrance, he saw Cheng Jinnian standing beside Professor Ouyang. He did not say anything. The Cheng family had always assigned people to be by Jiang Yao’s side. They would have known about Jiang Yao’s accident, so it was not unexpected for Cheng Jinnian to appear there.

However, Jiang Yao was not as calm as Lu Xingzhi. When Cheng Jinnian appeared behind Professor Ouyang and called her sister, she rolled her eyes.

“Mom was very worried when she heard you were in the hospital.” Cheng Jinnian did not seem to know that Jiang Yao did not welcome him. He was still young. He crossed his legs while he sat close to Jiang Yao..
