Chapter 2117: No Help
Liang Yueze quickly hid the exaggerated expression on his face. Then, he casually deleted the message and returned the phone to Lin Qianyun. “Don’t ask about things that have nothing to do with you.”
After saying that, he decided Lin Qianyun was not worth his time, so he went over to greet the people he knew.
Liang Yueze was also known as Young Master Liang in Jindo City. When he was done greeting his acquaintances, he was ready to leave. It was already an hour later.
He made an effort to leave earlier because Liang Yueze had said he would try to get home by eight o’clock. It took him a while to get home, though, so it was already half-past eight when he did.
“Where are Ruoran and the baby?” The first thing Liang Yueze asked after he entered the door was that.
“After eating, she sat for a while and then went home.”
Mrs. Liang did not even lift her eyes to look at her son.
Liang Yueze’s burning heart fell into an ice creva.s.se. He gritted his teeth. That woman was so heartless. She left so quickly.
“I’m going to the Luo family to see the baby.”
Liang Yueze set the car keys down and got ready to leave. The Luo family and the Liang family lived in the same area. It was not far.
“Ruoran doesn’t live in the area. She moved outside.’
Old Madam Liang glared at Liang Yueze. “She must have done that to avoid you.
Maybe they’re annoyed with you.”
Liang Yueze’s frozen heart was stabbed. He turned around and went upstairs to his room.
Liang Yueze sat on the bed after taking a shower and was in a daze for a while. When he looked at the room that used to be his and Luo Ruoran’s bedroom, he suddenly felt a sense of desolation.
When they were married, Luo Ruoran would sit on the bed and smile at him like a flower.
Liang Yueze shook his head and threw those memories out of his mind. He took out his phone and thought about it. He did not call Jiang Yao but Lu Xingzhi.
In the army base, in Colonel Lu’s bedroom.
The phone at the bedside table rang, but the person on the bed did not want to pick it up.
Lu Xingzhi had maneuvered Jiang Yao into a corner. She was leaning against the wall with her back. She urgently needed to be saved as soon as Lu Xingzhi’s phone started to ring.
“Your phone is ringing!’
Jiang Yao pointed at the bedside table excitedly. “Hurry up and answer the phone! Calling you at this time? Must be something urgent!’
“Nothing is as urgent as my needs.’
Lu Xingzhi pressed on Jiang Yao. “You promised to help me, but you’ve been sleeping early these past two nights. It’s my fault for coming back late. I came back early tonight, so you must fulfill your promise.”
“Hooligan! How would I know that’s what you meant? If I had known, I wouldn’t have asked you for help, even if I had to be pretentious in the text message!” Jiang Yao kicked Lu Xingzhi in the face. However, he turned his head away to avoid the kick. The kick did not land on his face but landed on his shoulder. He was in a good mood and was not angry at all. Instead, he lowered his head and licked the back of her foot.
Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi were bickering at the time. They were talking about Jiang Yao’s promise to help him in exchange for writing the text for her.
It was true that Jiang Yao agreed to do him a favor, but at that time, she had a.s.sumed that Lu Xingzhi wanted her to help him look through the information.
She did think that Lu Xingzhi was being too decent!
Did he keep all that c.r.a.p in his head all the time?
