Can't Take My Eyes Off You

Jiang Yao felt a little emotional and a little regretful. It was a pity that she did not pay attention to the situation with Lu Xingzhi's brothers before her rebirth. She did not know if Liang Yueze and Luo Ruoran, before her rebirth, were also divorced or what kind of life they led after their divorce.

She did not know if Zhou Weiqi managed to woo Zhan Qiuhe in the end or if Chen Xuyao was with Chu Sheng.

She did not know if her rebirth had changed the trajectory of those people's lives or if their fates had stayed the same.

Regardless, Jiang Yao hoped that Lu Xingzhi's brothers could lead a happy life.

Even though Lu Xingzhi did not laugh out loud, he still smiled. It was probably because he felt that those were things that he should do, but those small things moved Jiang Yao. Those small things even touched her deeply.

It was his responsibility to take care of Jiang Yao.

He married Jiang Yao, a delicate woman from the Jiang family. If he could not take care of his wife on behalf of the Jiang family, then it meant he could not keep the oath he made in front of her family.

A man should keep his word. When he said it, he would keep it.

"Second Brother said that he knows an old couple who wants to adopt a son and a daughter. He went to talk to them about the child's situation. If they were willing, he would bring them along when he returned to China," Lu Xingzhi said. "The couple has stable and good jobs. They have a good income, and they are good people. Since Second Brother said so, he's usually not wrong. We'll just have to wait."

Jiang Yao grunted and said, "The Lu family thought that the mistress is pregnant with a son, but I saw the woman. It's a daughter!"

Jiang Yao smiled smugly. "When the time comes, we'll see how they would regret their decision!"

Lu Xingzhi raised his eyebrows. Then, he touched Jiang Yao's eyes. "Any problem?"

Jiang Yao knew that Lu Xingzhi was not asking if she had seen it wrongly, but he was worried that her eyes were hurt. So, she smiled at Lu Xingzhi. "Don't worry. It's fine. There aren't any side effects."

As Jiang Yao spoke, she pushed Lu Xingzhi into the bathroom. "It's getting late. Take a shower and rest early. We agreed we'd go to the county town tomorrow morning to buy something to make a cake. I want to learn how to make a cake!"

After Lu Xingzhi entered the bathroom, Jiang Yao's backpack in the bedroom rustled as Moe jumped out quietly. First, his body shook as if he had been electrocuted. He shook his disheveled fur until it was even before he jumped onto the bed and stepped on Jiang Yao's knees. "I just heard your conversation with your man!"

"And?"

Jiang Yao grunted and flipped through the book in her hand. Moe had been in her backpack; unless he were deaf, he would have heard their conversation.

When Moe saw Jiang Yao's indifferent attitude, he immediately felt bored. Just as he was about to jump off the bed, Jiang Yao reached out and grabbed his tail. He immediately bristled and quickly retracted his tail.

"Don't touch me!"

Moe took a few steps backward.

Jiang Yao snorted. "Didn't you used to like it when I touched your butt?"

Moe continued to take a few steps backward until he reached the end of the bed. "Your man doesn't allow me to get too close to you!"

Jiang Yao was embarrassed; what did Lu Xingzhi say to Moe behind her back?
