Can't Take My Eyes Off You

Chapter 1219: Changed To The Morning of the Day After Tomorrow

“Oh, I just heard from Colonel Lin that you read the report. You don’t seem to be very satisfied with your new partner,” Jiang Yao pretended to ask casually.

“The time is too short. If only I could arrange and carry out the test myself.” Lu Xingzhi sounded regretful. Then he chuckled. “Colonel Lin kept telling me that my new partner is beautiful.”

Lu Xingzhi sneered. “I hate a beautiful empty vase.”

The small flame in Jiang Yao’s heart burned. She stood up and took the durian shell from the coffee table, and placed it on the dining table. “Look at how similar the cactus and the durian shell look!”

When she saw Lu Xingzhi’s stern face, Jiang Yao said, “Oh, right, you said you don’t like an empty vase?”

“I wasn’t talking about you; why are you angry?”

Lu Xingzhi’s temples were throbbing. “My wife is good-looking and smart.”

Then, Lu Xingzhi thought he understood the situation. Even though Jiang Yao was interested in the topic of his new partner, she did not want to hear his analysis or comment on her.

He felt that Jiang Yao was jealous. After all, his partner would be in a fake relationship with him. So, he decisively chose to end the topic.

Lu Xingzhi realized that Jiang Yao had already finished her soup, so he wolfed down three big bowls of rice and cleared the table. He ate so fast that Jiang Yao was dumbfounded.

While he was washing the dishes in the kitchen, Lu Xingzhi was still thinking about ways to make Jiang Yao happy. After all, he had to spend a lot of time with another woman on that mission, so he could understand if Jiang Yao was upset.

Furthermore, even though she was unhappy, she did not fuss about him going on that mission. She only sulked about it.

However, Lu Xingzhi did not expect that when he finished washing the dishes and returned to his bedroom, Jiang Yao informed him that she had booked a flight back to Nanjiang City tomorrow afternoon.

“Change it to the morning of the day after tomorrow. Stay with me for one more night,” Lu Xingzhi said.

“It takes a long time to get from here to the airport, so how early do I have to get up to prepare?”

Jiang Yao shook her head. “It’s better to go back tomorrow afternoon.”

Lu Xingzhi was speechless.

He observed Jiang Yao’s expression. When he saw her determined look, his heart sank. “Are you still angry with me? Because I left you out at the door? Yaoyao, I didn’t do that to chase you away, or else I wouldn’t have given you a small stool.”

It was too sudden for Lu Xingzhi.

Jiang Yao Would return to Nanjiang City the following afternoon. Did he have to sleep alone on his last night in Jin City?

After completing the mission, it would be fine if he had some time to go to Nanjiang City. If he did not have time to go to Nanjiang city, he would report directly to the new unit. Once he arrived at the new team, there would be a lot of work for him to do. He could imagine how busy he would be in the first half of the year.

Everything would be fine if the undercover mission were successful. It would be over in ten days to half a month. If the mission were difficult and delayed for a few months, he would have to report to the new unit immediately. That meant he would need to wait a year before he could see her again.

Furthermore, Lu Xingzhi was afraid that he would have to endure closed-door training when he arrived at the new unit. Even if Jiang Yao wanted to visit him then, he would not have the time or opportunity to see her.
