He stroked her hair after they reconciled at the airport. He did not say those words unconsciously. He regretted it as he was scared she would reject him outright, but she had accepted.
She had succeeded.
She had let her hair grow back because of what he had said.
“You are a good girl!”
Lu Xingzhi chuckled and leaned in to peck her on the cheek.
He simply intended to kiss her once; he could not do anything to her. Even if she did not say anything, one look was enough to make him fall head over heels in love with her.
He wanted more toward the end of the kiss.
He yearned to caress her body, to kiss every inch of her, to possess her greedily.
When love was powerful, the world appeared to be a ma.s.sive vortex that spun nonstop. She fell into it bit by bit until all that remained in her ears were his heavy breathing and the tiny moans she could still hear.
Jiang Yao was so exhausted that she could not even move her fingers. Since it was still early, they clutched to one another to catch up on sleep.
It was nearly noon when she woke up. Lu Xingzhi woke her up for lunch.
There was no one at home for an extended period, so there was no food. “I slept so soundly that I didn’t even realize you were out,” Jiang Yao said when she spotted Lu Xingzhi holding a box of food.
Lu Xingzhi had already returned from getting lunch at the cafeteria. She had no idea when he got out of bed, nor did she know when he went out.
The sun was so scorching hot that Jiang Yao did not want to go out and stand for two more seconds. The electric fan whistled and blew silently at her. They leaned against the gla.s.s, looking out at the fruit trees in the courtyard. The cat was grumbling about whether they would be able to eat those fruits next year.
In the meantime, Lu Xingzhi washed the dishes in the kitchen.
“The yellow blossom pear is excellent, sweet, and moist. It satisfies my thirst.” Jiang Yao turned around and spoke quietly about it. “How about I ask him to plant another yellow flower pear in the courtyard?”
Moe nodded and pondered for a moment before saying, “Ask your man to plant another drumstick tree. I’m not sure whether I can grow a drumstick tree in the spring, but I will have your man cook two drumsticks for me every day.”
“Why don’t you just plant diamonds, and they will develop in the autumn?”
Jiang Yao could not help but stare at Moe.
While Moe was thinking about the drumstick tree, he did not notice Jiang Yao’s contemptuous tone. In his excitement, he asked, “Is that possible? I will plant it straight away! One diamond tree, one chicken drumstick tree, and one duck drumstick tree! I will share it with you once autumn is over!”
Lu Xingzhi emerged from the kitchen after hearing Moe’s meowing. One of them was staring at the cat.
“What’s going on?”
He walked forward, grabbed Moe, and flung him on the ground.
“Moe said that he intends to plant chicken drumstick and duck drumstick trees in the courtyard, as well as diamond trees. Don’t you think he is a moron?” Jiang Yao knelt and poked Moe in the head. “idiot.”
Moe eventually snapped back to his senses. He discovered that Jiang Yao had duped him, so he snorted angrily at her, wagged his tail, and walked away. He was enraged and refused to speak to her anymore.
“The fruit tree is already planted. We should not move.. I think this place is rather nice.”
