Can't Take My Eyes Off You

When she visited during the National Day holidays, he was still smoking in front of her. But after a few days, the smell of cigarettes was nowhere to be found. Even Zhou Weiqi and Chen Xuyao were barred from smoking by Lu Xingzhi.

Now, he could not hold it in anymore and lit a cigarette right in front of Jiang Yao.

She looked at him in silence and felt the aching pain in her heart.

He did not want her to leave.

Yet, what else could he say?

Perhaps he did not want to send her off and see her leave right before his eyes?

He did not speak and smoked in silence. After finishing the cigarette in hand, he rolled down the car window and tossed the cigarette butt out. Grabbing himself a bottle of water, he proceeded to chug a few mouthfuls down his throat.

"Lu Xingzhi…"

Jiang Yao gently called out.

"I know, give me a moment." He thought she was eager to leave and answered in a slightly annoyed tone. He put the water bottle away, turned toward Jiang Yao, lifted her up, and placed her on his laps.

Jiang Yao was startled. After all, there were a lot of people around them!

The space was cramped and with the way they were sitting, Jiang Yao's entire body was pushed against Lu Xingzhi.

Seeing her expression, he chuckled, "What did you think I was going to do?"

"How would I know?" She retorted.

"I just want to hug you." He pushed her head down on his chest. "Call me when you arrive. Don't forget to do it every night before you sleep too; I want you to tell me what happened during the day."

"Alright." Jiang Yao was relieved that he was not thinking of any nasty ideas. She buried her face in his chest.

He gently pressed his hand down on her head and exhaled. Lifting her chin up with his fingertips, he suddenly went in for the kiss.

He did not want her to go, not at all.

Even though he knew it from the beginning that she would leave, it still ached him a lot when the day finally arrived.

The kiss lasted two minutes, not very long, but enough for Jiang Yao's heart to throb violently.

She sniveled and took a quick look at Lu Xingzhi as she lightly nudged his nose with her face. "More!"

Seeing his inaction, she initiated the kiss.

However much they were unwilling to part ways, the ticking hands of time did not allow for any dawdling.

Hearing the broadcast announcing that the boarding for Jiang Yao's flight had just started, it was time for her to go.

"Let's go." He finally unbuckled his seat belt and exited the car with her in his arms.

He carried the very few suitcases Jiang Yao had and held her hand as they walked toward the boarding gate.

She bought many clothes in Jin City and Jindo City but did not pack it in her suitcase. She left it here since she would be back soon.

With people coming and going at the airport, Lu Xingzhi and Jiang Yao were like a drop of water in an ocean.
