Can't Take My Eyes Off You - Chapter 893

Chapter 893: Vying for Favor

At that time, Lu Xingzhi thought that when he married her, his lady would only act coquettishly with him. He would be the only person in the world who could place her in his palm and pamper her.

She would smile at him and hold onto his arms as she spoke coquettishly with him.

She was like a small sun. The heat from her body could burn a person’s dim life to a boiling point, and with a burning passion too.

After she listened to Lu Xingzhi’s explanation, Jiang Yao was rendered speechless for a long time. “I was still so young, and you were already thinking about me? Lu Xingzhi, don’t you think you’re a pervert?”

First year! She was still in her first year! How old was she then? She was still young, probably around 16 or 17 years old. At the age of sixteen or seventeen, she was still so young. She did not expect that a man would stare at her from the shadows as if he wanted to drag her into a tiger’s den.

“You went to school a year later than others. You were already 16 or 17 years old when you first went to high school. How was that young?” Lu Xingzhi refused to admit it. “In ancient times, girls could get married when they were 13 or 14 years old. Some were even mothers when they were 16 or 17 years old.”

“So you think it’s okay if it’s legal to get married at 13 or 14 years old now?” Jiang Yao chuckled. “And you say you’re not a pervert!”

“Why would I think that? I didn’t know you when you were 13 or 14 years old. How would I remember you?” Lu Xingzhi said, “Yaoyao, if you’re angry with me because of Chen Lanying, then you’re being unreasonable.”

After he said that, Lu Xingzhi felt a little happy. Fortunately, his mother-in-law gave birth to his wife quite early. If he were already in his 20s and Jiang Yao was still only 13 or 14 years old, then it would be quite torturous.

He was only seven years older than Jiang Yao, and he had already gone through a lot of trouble to marry her. The first time he went to the Jiang family, Mr Jiang had already kicked him out of the house. He said that Lu Xingzhi was too old and that his daughter wanted to think if she would marry him.

Lu Xingzhi still felt aggrieved when he thought of those words. His wife was young; how was that his fault?

Lu Xingzhi was so anxious when Jiang Yao still did not speak that his mouth was about to burst into flames. “After Eldest Brother’s wedding, I’ll buy you a plane ticket so you can come to Jindo earlier than we planned. If there are any other problems, we can discuss them and settle them properly.”

Jiang Yao felt smug as she scolded Lu Xingzhi. “Don’t be silly! I’m not flying that early! I’ll leave a few days before the New Year. The winter vacation is too short, so I have to find some time to spend with our parents too.”

It seemed that Young Master Lu still had to compete with their parents. He could only hold onto his phone silently. He could not think of any other reason to ask Jiang Yao to fly to him earlier.

Jiang Yao was happy she could throw Lu Xingzhi’s words back to him. Back then, he had said that she was silly, but then, Lu Xingzhi had acted just as foolish.

She knew that Lu Xingzhi had daily training in the army and that he might have to go on an urgent mission at any time. Whether it was training or missions, she could not allow him to be distracted. Therefore, Jiang Yao was satisfied when she could tease Lu Xingzhi; she did not want him to be worried about her all the time.

She did not mind teasing him, but she would never want to torture him.

Lu Xingzhi and Chen Feibai were right. She was soft-hearted, especially when it was about the people in her heart; she had no bottom line about that.

Therefore, she deserved to be ‘eaten’ by Lu Xingzhi.

“I have already sent New Year’s gifts to your friend. When you are free, please remind him to accept it.” Jiang Yao suddenly remembered that she had not told Lu Xingzhi about that.
