Chapter 984: You Know Him Too

It made him fall into it willingly and pull her into that burning world together.

The kiss made their body burn with passion. Lu Xingzhi used his self-control to end the kiss. Instead, he carried her to the bed to do something else.

It had been many days since someone had stayed in that house. Unfortunately, she was a germaphobe, and the house had not been cleaned yet. The bedsheet had not been changed yet; those were the things that did not take too long to fix.

When Lu Xingzhi released Jiang Yao, his body had already reacted, so he went to the window and stood there for two minutes. It took him two minutes of standing in the cold wind before he finally calmed down. After he was done, he returned to Jiang Yao’s side. He lowered his head and planted a kiss on Jiang Yao’s forehead. “I’ll go clean up. You take your time to tidy up.”

Then, he walked out of the bedroom; he felt satisfied. He even helped Jiang Yao close the bedroom door to show that he would not peek at her.

Jiang Yao put her things away and hid those that she needed to hide. When she walked out of the bedroom, Lu Xingzhi did not do any cleaning. Instead, he sat on a chair in the living room and talked to someone on the phone. She listened to the tone and content of his words; it was probably his old colleague, Old Liu, that he had asked her to deliver the new year’s goods.

That person was from the same country as Sergeant Ge. He had helped Lu Xingzhi arrange a job for Sergeant Ge, who had retired from the army.

Old Liu must have received the New Year’s goods that she had sent him, so he had called Lu Xingzhi about it.

Since Lu Xingzhi was on the phone, Jiang Yao turned around and took the mop that he had casually placed against the back of the chair. Just as she was about to walk forward, her husband pulled her back.

Lu Xingzhi was still on the phone, but his other hand, which did not cradle the phone, took the mop from Jiang Yao’s hand and put it back where it stood. Then, he pulled Jiang Yao onto his lap before he wrapped his arms around her waist to prevent her from leaving.

“You’re on your phone, don’t mess around with me, okay?” Jiang Yao pushed Lu Xingzhi gently as she spoke to him in a low voice.

Lu Xingzhi glanced at her, but he only lowered his head and gently pecked her lips. Then, he mouthed, “Be good.”

Since the person on the other end was still talking, Lu Xingzhi did not make a sound. He only mouthed the words with his lips, and Jiang Yao understood it because that was how Lu Xingzhi usually coaxed her—he treated her like a three-year-old child!

When she realized that Lu Xingzhi refused to let go, Jiang Yao could only sit on his thigh helplessly as if it was a soft sofa. Then, she deliberately put her ear close to his phone. When he looked at her, she bared her teeth arrogantly and mouthed back to him, “If you don’t want me to listen, then let me mop the floor.”

Lu Xingzhi curled his lips and pressed them against hers again. Then, he paused for two more seconds as if he was waiting for her to speak before he moved his lips. Then, he quickly said into the phone, “Alright, I got it. Thank you for your help. If Sister-in-law and Auntie liked the food, I’ll get my wife to send you some more next time. Dried bamboo shoots are quite rare at your place, but they’re common in our hometown.”

After they exchanged a few more pleasantries, Lu Xingzhi put the phone away and asked with a smile, “Why can’t you listen? It’s only Old Liu; you know him too.”

Then, he did not wait for Jiang Yao to speak before he carried her in his arms. His action came without warning. Jiang Yao had been sitting on his lap, but she was in his embrace in the next second. She was so shocked that she hugged his neck tightly.
