Chapter 1456: Married An Old Man
Jiang Yao had planned to look at that tomorrow anyway, even if Professor Ouyang did not mention it. She also wanted to look at Zhou Junmin’s condition.
“Okay, I’ll get the nurse to send it to you later. Rest early. After all, your priority now is to rest and take care of yourself first.” Then, Professor Ouyang left. He did not forget to glare at Lu Xingzhi before leaving.
The moment Professor Ouyang left, Lu Xingzhi slammed the door shut. If it were not because he was Jiang Yao’s professor, Lu Xingzhi would have chased him away.
When Lu Xingzhi bent down and carried Jiang Yao back to the bed, Jiang Yao reached out and pinched Lu Xingzhi’s muscular biceps. She smiled and asked, “Are you angry?”
“Am I old?” Lu Xingzhi raised his eyebrows.
“Of course not.” Jiang Yao shook her head and denied it. “You’re not that older than me. However, you graduated from primary school when I was in first grade. We’d never be in the same school. That’s the only difference.”
How could Lu Xingzhi not understand the teasing tone in Jiang Yao’s words? She was teasing him about his age in a roundabout way.
Lu Xingzhi did not want to give her a hard time when he saw her sneaky smile. It did not matter what she said, as long as she was happy.
“Well, you’re married to an old man, so you’ll have to suffer.” If Professor Ouyang did not say that he was not good enough for Jiang Yao, Lu Xingzhi would not think that he was too old for Jiang Yao.
Their relations.h.i.+p had been excellent recently. He did not feel like there was an age gap between him and Jiang Yao.
Other couples would quarrel every few days, but he and Jiang Yao never fought. If they lived a simple and uninteresting life like an old couple, Lu Xingzhi felt like they had nothing to quarrel about. If they did not quarrel, it meant that they were a match made in heaven, destined to be husband and wife.
That was what Lu Xingzhi thought, so he did not think their age difference was a problem at all.
“Let’s just let things progress naturally.” Lu Xingzhi did not know why Jiang Yao was so anxious to have a child. She was even more anxious than him. “If you want to graduate early, then do it. If you have a child, then do that as well. Otherwise, there is no rush in conceiving a baby. If you want to take the postgraduate exam, then go ahead. It’s just a few years. I can wait.”
Lu Xingzhi no longer had a strong desire to have children. He would let nature take its course. That was what he was trying to persuade himself.
Jiang Yao thought that Lu Xingzhi would leave after accompanying her for a while. Later, Lu Xingzhi received a phone call. After that, he went into the bathroom, took a shower, and changed his clothes. He said that he could accompany her for one night and then he had to go to the station in the morning. Liang Yueze and Chief Liang were helping to guard that place.
They knew that Jiang Yao needed someone to take care of her, so the father and son duo tried their best to help Lu Xingzhi keep an eye on the station so that he could spend more time with Jiang Yao.
Zhou Weiqi even sent them dinner. Chen Xuyao’s company had been a little busy. Since there was nothing for him to do there, he decided to take a flight to Jindo City.
Knowing that Chen Xuyao had left, Zhou Weiqi chatted with Jiang Yao about Chen Xuyao all night long. He talked about how Chen Xuyao had been looking for Chu Sheng everywhere and how he had wooed Chu Sheng, only to be mercilessly rejected by her time and time again.
