Can't Take My Eyes Off You

Chapter 1002: No Lady Here

Moe was a lazy cat. Lu Xingzhi had dragged it around for half an hour; it was no wonder that he had such an expression on his face.

However, Moe perked up when Jiang Yao yelled at Lu Xingzhi. He felt aggrieved, so he nudged Jiang Yao’s chest and complained, “Your man is a pervert! He dragged me downstairs and said that we were going for a walk. It’s such cold weather, why are we going for a walk? Look at how he tortured me. If you didn’t come back soon, he would have tortured me to death.”

Moe regretted his decision. If he had known that Lu Xingzhi would come home to walk him, he would not have slacked off. He would have gone out with Jiang Yao.

After his wife yelled at him, Lu Xingzhi realized that he must have done something wrong and made his wife unhappy. He glanced at Moe, who was as quiet as death, as it meowed happily in his wife’s arms. The cat had caressed his wife’s chest. He felt as if his wife’s pet had done that on purpose.

“Let me carry him!” Lu Xingzhi walked forward and lifted the little white ball of fur from Jiang Yao’s arms. He said that he would carry it, but he stuffed Moe into his jacket pocket. Then, he urged Jiang Yao to drive the car into the building, and he would wait for her downstairs.

He did not give Jiang Yao a chance to speak; he turned around and ran back. Jiang Yao did not know whether to laugh or cry. He must have been afraid that she would scold him, so he found an excuse to escape her wrath.

Did he think that she did not know what was in his mind?

Jiang Yao did not understand why Moe would act so cowardly in front of Lu Xingzhi? Her husband tortured him so much, but he did not even resist. Lu Xingzhi had wanted to walk it, and Moe had let the man put a leash on him and walked him in the cold wind for more than half an hour.

Moe always acted arrogantly in front of Jiang Yao, but he was as timid as a mouse in front of Lu Xingzhi.

Jiang Yao’s heart did ache for Moe when she thought about how Lu Xingzhi had walked it for half an hour.

When Jiang Yao returned to the car, Mrs Lin and the other two women laughed so hard that they almost suffocated.

“Why is Sergeant Lu so funny? Other people don’t even walk their dogs in the cold, yet he walks the cat?” Mrs Lin laughed so hard that she could not sit still. “Even my mother’s mutt doesn’t like to go out in this weather.”

“Does a cat need walking?” Mrs Yang laughed. “Where would cats go? They don’t need their owners to walk them. They just run around on their own.”

Jiang Yao did not know whether to laugh or cry. Sometimes she did not understand how Lu Xingzhi’s brain would work.

After she thought about it, Jiang Yao guessed there was another possibility. He must have detected her strange tone while they were on the phone. He was anxious to see her but did not want her to notice his impatience. So, he had walked the cat as an excuse to wait for her at the entrance.

When Jiang Yao drove the car to the residence building, Lu Xingzhi had already brought Moe home. When he saw Jiang Yao get out of the car, he walked toward her, but he did not say anything. Instead, he buried his head in his chore; he helped them move the things out of the car one by one.

“Sergeant Lu, Lady Lu, you’re home!” Old Madam He suddenly appeared downstairs. She said, “Lady Lu, it looks like you bought a lot of things during your shopping trip. You look pleased too. Oh, and you bought lanterns?”

Jiang Yao almost dropped the lanterns in her hands when she heard how Old Madam Lu addressed her. Lu Xingzhi turned to look at the older woman and said unhappily, “Auntie, there’s no one with the title lady here, only military wives.”
