He asked again, “When did you become so familiar with the young man?”
“Young man?” Jiang Yao exclaimed. It took her a few moments to figure out who Lu Xingzhi was talking about.
He inquired of the young man next door. He would even get rid of the young man next door.
The term young man appeared to compliment the young man’s parents, but it was actually the opposite.
Jiang Yao and Ye Jianguo had only met a couple of times. Jiang Yao did not think she was close to Ye Jianguo.
Why would Lu Xingzhi suddenly ask that?
Who told him?
It was probably that traitor again.
“Why are you jealous? You might grow old and become a jealous old guy.” She raised her hand slightly to brush against the tip of Lu Xingzhi’s nose. Then, she pinched his nose and said, “He is from a university. He only said a few sentences to me. I found out he’s Colonel Ye’s son.”
Lu Xingzhi thought that if his wife was still so likable when she was old, he might be a jealous old man then.
“He’s younger than me.”
Lu Xingzhi noticed Ye Jianguo’s concern about Jiang Yao and was concerned that they were very close. They were university students of the same age. He was frightened that Jiang Yao would tell him that she and Ye Jianguo got along very well. He knew that he was the opposite of Ye Jianguo. He did not find any of the young man’s traits in him.
Similarly, Ye Jianguo had none of his characteristics.
If Jiang Yao got along well and was happy with someone like Ye Jianguo, she might be bored when she was with him.
He often talked about her. She was the one who spoke when the two of them were together. So, he paid close attention.
“He’s not as handsome as you.”
Jiang Yao kissed Lu Xingzhi’s side profile. “I like someone like you. More is unnecessary, and less is too little.”
Undoubtedly, that answer made Lu Xingzhi feel happy.
It made no difference whether it was more or less. Lu Xingzhi was the one for her. He appealed to her the most because of who he was. He did not have to change his personality merely to please her.
That night, Lu Xingzhi did not torture Jiang Yao excessively. Perhaps it was because he was preoccupied with too many things or concerned about Jiang Yao’s body. She had just recovered from her injuries. He hugged and kissed her before he covered her with the blanket.
Lu Xingzhi abruptly said as he gazed at the woman who was drowsy from his kiss, “I will submit my leave application as soon as possible so that I can take you on a trip as soon as possible.”
“Have you planned where we’re going?” Jiang Yao asked vaguely as she rubbed her eyes.
“I’ll take you to see the desert and the lake. We can also go to the prairie to ride horses.” That thought came to Lu Xingzhi out of nowhere. He had been to all of those places. Nonetheless, they had left an unforgettable mark on him even after so many years. The scenery was simply too breathtaking. He wanted to take her to his favorite location.
“The desert, the lake, and sunsets. I like that arrangement!” Jiang Yao’s interest was immediately piqued. “When we get there, we can rent a car or drive from the city. We can take turns driving. That way, we won’t be tired and can still see all the scenery along the way.”
