“Xingzhi, you didn’t participate in training those few days. You went to YN, right?” Jiang Yao asked. Lu Xingzhi’s hand, which was holding the razor blade, trembled in shock.
t left a wound on his chin. The blood quickly dyed the shaving cream red.
“You’re good.”
Lu Xingzhi looked at Jiang Yao. He lowered his head and turned on the tap to wash the bloodied white foam on his chin. Then, he looked into the mirror. He touched the
subtle mark on his chin and snorted. “I’m disfigured.”
Jiang Yao did not understand what he meant when he said she was good. Did he mean she was good at guessing or had good timing to disfigure him?
However, she thought he looked comical with his half-clean chin and beard. Jiang Yao waited for his response, but she burst into laughter when she stroked the injury on
his chin. Then, she smiled and said, “You’re not disfigured. You’re still the most handsome man in my heart.”
Lu Xingzhi looked at Jiang Yao. “Your lips are too sweet.” Then, he lowered his head and kissed her.
They had just brushed their teeth, so they smelled like toothpaste. Their morning was sweeter, with the fragrance of lemon mint spread in their mouths.
After kissing for more than two minutes, Lu Xingzhi let go of her. His eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at her red and swollen lips. After a few seconds, he moved away.
He picked up the blade and gestured twice on his chin before applying the shaving cream again. Then, he continued to shave his face.
His movements were very slow. He had done it on purpose. He knew that Jiang Yao was waiting for his answer, but he pursed his lips and shaved his beard slowly. He did
not say a word.
Jiang Yao was patient. She also deliberately took her time. She crossed her arms and leaned against the wall to wait for him. Her eyes were fixed on him.
He did not speak, and she did not continue to ask.
About five minutes later, Lu Xingzhi finished washing his face. He threw the razor blade into a drawer before he reached out and pulled Jiang Yao out of the bathroom. He
smiled and asked, “How did you guess?”
“It’s not difficult to guess.”
Jiang Yao let Lu Xingzhi lead her to the dining table and sat down. Then, she said in a low voice, “Previously, you told me that you quit the drill midway. It wouldn’t be fair for
you to rejoin the training. Furthermore, you had already arranged everything and handed the reign to Zhou Junmin. But later, you said that you were going back to continue
participating in the drill. Your explanation was inconsistent. At that time, I felt strange, but I didn’t think too much about it.”
“What happened after that?” Lu Xingzhi patted Jiang Yao’s head.
“After that, I heard the news when I was having dinner with Sister in Nanjiang City. I knew that Master Sen had been killed. I thought about it and felt that the timing of his
death was too coincidental. He died the day after you went back to the drill. You had enough time to kill him.”
That was why Jiang Yao was distracted during her meal with Lu Yuqing at the restaurant that day. When she heard the news, she immediately thought that the missing
sniper was most likely Lu Xingzhi. After that, she gave Zhou Weidi a call. Initially, she wanted to get some useful information from Zhou Weidi, but later, she realized that
Zhou Weidi did not know anything about it..
