Chapter 1078: Just Like How You Treated Me
Lu Xingzhi could tell what Jiang Yao was thinking, but he did not expose her. He only threw her a glance with a half-smile and did not say much. Then, he talked to Mr. and Mrs. Lu about going to Jindo City for a vacation after the New Year.
Mr. and Mrs. Lu had never left that province in their entire lives. The furthest they went was to a few counties and other urban areas. Perhaps everyone had a pa.s.sion for Jindo City in their hearts. Therefore, when they heard Lu Xingzhi say that he wanted to invite the Jiang family to travel to Jindo City together, Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu were actually moved.
“We’ll make arrangements!”
Mr. Lu looked at Mrs. Lu and asked, “There should be time. Didn’t you say that you’ve never gone to Xingzhi’s school or the army? Why don’t we take a look?”
Then, Mr. Lu looked at his brother. “You and Xiaoxiao should go too; the more, the merrier!”
“Go! Let’s go!” Lu Xiaoxiao raised her hands and nodded non-stop. If it were not for the cold weather and shoes on her feet, Lu Xiaoxiao would probably have jumped onto the sofa.
Then, everyone started to talk about their visit to Jindo City. The three men talked about places of interest in Jindo City, and the four women were talking about what to wear.
Mrs. Lu might be old, but she also liked to dress up. When Mrs. Lu, Jiang Yao, Lu Xiaoxiao, and Lu Yuqing talked about that topic, they had more experience and opinions than anyone else. When they learned that they could see snow, even Mrs. Lu was excited.
After Lu Xingzhi brought up the topic, everyone chatted the entire night enthusiastically. By the time Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi went back upstairs, it was already eleven o’clock.
Jiang Yao yawned all the way up the stairs. Since everyone else had gone to their rooms, she leaned onto Lu Xingzhi’s body like a lazy bone and allowed him to carry her up the stairs.
After they returned to her room, Jiang Yao went to the bathroom to take a shower. When she came out, Lu Xingzhi was on the phone with Gu Haoyu. They were talking about the child’s adoption.
After Lu Xingzhi and Gu Haoyu ended the call, Jiang Yao casually asked, “Is Second Brother coming back for the New Year?”
“Yes.”
Lu Xingzhi nodded. “He just found out Eldest Brother and Eldest Sister-in-law are divorced. He was worried about her, so he wanted to come back to visit her.”
Gu Haoyu had not planned to return for the New Year. However, he just found out that Luo Ruoran and Liang Yueze were divorced. He was worried about Luo Ruoran after the divorce, so he wanted to see if she was okay.
When they talked about Luo Ruoran and Liang Yueze, Jiang Yao sighed. “I thought that Eldest Brother and Eldest Sister-in-law were doing very well. He even paid attention to her throughout the meal. She only needed to look at the dish, and he would get it for her. She did not need to do anything at all; he was like a competent waiter.”
After a pause, Jiang Yao continued to say, “Just like how you treated me.”
Jiang Yao had not wanted to praise Lu Xingzhi, but it was the truth. Even though Lu Xingzhi was a man and a soldier who had spent all his time with men, he was as meticulous as dust. Liang Yueze was the same.
Jiang Yao thought Liang Yueze and Luo Ruoran would spend their lives together like her and Lu Xingzhi. She did not expect they would get divorced only after half a year.
