Jiang Yao's sudden silence exacerbated the delicate atmosphere in the room, compelling Lu Xingzhi to look at the lady lying on his bed.
Coincidentally, their gazes met. Noticing that she was checking him out, Lu Xingzhi beamed. He sat at the edge of the bed asking, "What are you thinking about?"
"Well, I was thinking that you are so good-looking. Why didn't you seduce me with your looks back then?" Jiang Yao lifted Lu Xingzhi's chin up and gave him a kiss on the lips. Just as swiftly, she changed the conversation. "Next time, do not hide your injury from me."
She sighed, "Of course, I can't expect you to never get hurt. It is what it is."
It was understood that she had no wish for Lu Xingzhi to retire from the military. She respected his decisions, all she asked for was honesty and proper communication from him.
