Can't Take My Eyes Off You

"Okay." Jiang Yao nodded and asked, "Did you call me before you came here? I think Mom picked up the phone. What did you tell her about the bottle?"

Lu Xingzhi said, "We suspect someone put abortion drugs in the water." Colonel Ye's son said he pushed you because Sergeant Hu's father instigated him. He said that if he pushed you, Sergeant Hu's father would treat him to a soda."

"Sergeant Hu's father?"

Jiang Yao was stunned. "The man who brought us water yesterday morning? Yesterday, Commissar Lin's mother even praised him in front of us. Didn't we meet him when he brought us water again? I remember him. He was wearing gray clothes. He was about 40 years old."

If it were not for that old madam who praised that man, Jiang Yao might not have had such a deep impression of him.

"Why did he do that?"

Jiang Yao was shocked and said, "We don't have any feud with him. We haven't even met him before, and we don't have any grudges against his son. Why did he want to harm me?"

After saying that, Jiang Yao shook her head again. "That's not right. He didn't just harm me. He hurt those pregnant women too. Two sets of parents lost their child yesterday."

However, there was another problem that Jiang Yao did not understand. "Since he had already put the abortion drugs in the water, even if he didn't encourage Colonel Ye's son to push me, under normal circumstances, I would be in the same situation as the other pregnant women."

Jiang Yao might have said under normal circumstances, but her situation was extraordinary. She had a medical system, and it could remove the drugs in the body. It would not have affected her.

However, no one knew that. Therefore, if Sergeant Hu's father wanted to attack a pregnant woman, a bottle of water with abortion drugs would be enough. There was no reason for him to ask Colonel Ye's son to push her.

It was as if Sergeant Hu's father feared the drugs would not affect her. He might have been worried that she would not miscarry.

"Don't worry about that. Your priority is to rest and take care of yourself. I should be the one to worry about those things." Lu Xingzhi passed the milk toward Jiang Yao. He conveniently picked her up and sat her on his lap.

Lu Xingzhi to take care of Jiang Yao. He rang the call bell to summon the head nurse. He got a cup and poured the water so that the head nurse could test it. He asked for the results as soon as the head nurse received them.

After the head nurse left, Lu Xingzhi put the bottle back in its original position and asked, "The water is useless against you?"

Jiang Yao drank quite a lot yesterday. He even gave her the same water after the accident, but it seemed like Jiang Yao's body did not react to it.

"Well, any medicine harmful to my body is useless against me." Jiang Yao playfully winked at Lu Xingzhi. "Are you afraid of my power?"

Lu Xingzhi did not answer but pulled her into his arms.

He held her gently as if he was afraid that he would crush her if he used too much strength.

Soon, he could not control his emotions at all.

His grip grew stronger; he wished he could always keep her with him.
