Chapter 1709: Stay Away From Her
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After everything was settled, the first scout happily jumped in front of Lu Xingzhi and said, “Colonel, I recognize her. The captive you brought back tonight is the most beautiful doctor in the Red Team! It’s a pity that her face is painted. Otherwise, you can see how good-looking she is!”
“How good-looking is she? Why don’t we let her wash her face? Since she is our captive, it should be fine to wash her face, right?” Someone suggested sneakily.
“Do you want to die?”
Lu Xingzhi raised his leg and kicked the person’s b.u.t.t. “Stay away from her!”
His kick was really merciless—the person bared his teeth in pain.
After Lu Xingzhi came out of the thatched cottage, he did not see Jiang Yao, so he returned to his tent to look for her. When he saw Xiao Gao standing at the entrance of his tent, he frowned. “Why are you standing here?”
“To guard the captive!” Xiao Gao answered matter-of-factly.
“There’s no need. Go back and sleep! “Lu Xingzhi said as he opened the tent to go in, but Xiao Gao went to sigh and stopped him.
“Colonel, the lady has probably slept for quite a while. It’s not appropriate for you to go in at this time, right?” Xiao Gao braced himself and explained under his Colonel’s cold gaze. “Unmarried men and women should not be intimate.”
“There’s nothing to be intimate about.”
Lu Xingzhi pushed Xiao Gao to the side and walked straight into the tent.
Xiao Gao wanted to go in and persuade his colonel to come out, but he dared not go into the tent. After all, how could a man like him enter when a lady was sleeping inside?
His colonel must have been too anxious. He had a wife, so why was he still so dull-witted? Unmarried men and women should not be intimate. If the young lady slapped the Colonel, would he pretend not to know about it?
He was really worried about that.
Why would his colonel go into the tent at that hour? He was the one who said he would give his tent to the female doctor. Why would he go in then?
Was he so worried about her that he had to guard her personally? Even if that was the case, there was no need for him to go into the tent.
When Lu Xingzhi went in, he saw Jiang Yao’s sleepy face. She was asleep, but his conversation with Xiao Gao woke her up.
Perhaps she was unhappy that someone woke her up, so she pouted and snorted at him.
“Why did you come in?” Jiang Yao yawned as she spoke.
“To look at you. I want to talk to you. “Lu Xingzhi poked Jiang Yao’s face. “So sleepy?”
“I’ve been listening to you at home. I went to bed at 10:30 p.m. at the latest. My body won’t reset for a while. And look at what time it is now. It’s already past 2:00 a.m!” Jiang Yao retorted in a huff with a long string of words. When she realized that he was grinning, she moved her head onto his lap. She looked up at him.
“You’ve been in closed-door training mode for so long. Don’t tell me you don’t have a set time for sleeping,” Jiang Yao said.
“No, most of the previous training was during the day. I was free at night, and I only slept when I was free.” Lu Xingzhi liked to see how concerned she was about him. She was obviously very sleepy. However, she still forced herself to talk to him.. She still remembered to be worried about him.
