Chapter 985: You Are Too Light


    "You are too light, indeed." Lu Xingzhi frowned. "Did you not eat properly when you were home?"


    "Is your hand a weighing scale?" Jiang Yao asked curiously.


    She wondered why he changed his position to hug her. It turned out that he felt she was too light, so he


    picked her up to weigh her carefully.


    Jiang Yao thought that Lu Xingzhi was an amazing man. She was only two kilograms lighter, but he


    could tell that she had lost weight at first nce. Then, when he had hugged her, he could feel that she


    was lighter, indeed. His eyes and arms were as urate as a weighing scale.


    "Didn''t you eat properly when you were home?" Lu Xingzhi sat down on the sofa and pulled Jiang Yao


    back onto hisp. The next second, he raised his hand and flicked her forehead. "What did I tell you


    before you went back?"


    Jiang Yao covered her forehead where he flicked her. She stared at Lu Xingzhi with teary eyes and


    me when we were in Rong County, and now you flicked my forehead! Are you now revealing your true


    nature after we''re married?"


    "What true nature?" Lu Xingzhi chuckled. "Don''t you know why I hit you in Rong County? And now,


    don''t you know the reason I flicked your forehead?"


    "Domestic violence!" Jiang Yao gritted her teeth as she emphasized the words.


    "I only like to use domestic violence in bed," Lu Xingzhi replied shamelessly. One could easily tell what


    was on his mind.


    "Hooligan!" Jiang Yao raised her hand to cover Lu Xingzhi''s face and jumped down from hisp. "I''ll


    mop the floor."


    "The water is too cold; let me do it." Lu Xingzhi pulled her back again. "Go change the bedsheets, then


    put the dirty ones on the balcony. I''ll wash themter. You should lie down on the bed and rest for a

    while. We''ll go to Colonel Lin''s house around five o''clock for dinner."


    "Oh," Jiang Yao replied. Then, she went back to the bedroom. After she changed the bedsheets, she


    did not want to rest. She put the bedsheets on the balcony; she knew that Lu Xingzhi would not let her


    touch cold water in that weather. After she was done, she sat in the living room and watched Lu Xingzhi


    mop the floor deftly.


    Even though Lu Xingzhi was a man, he was not sloppy when it came to housework. He could mop the


    floor cleaner than Jiang Yao, and he could do it faster than her too.


    Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi were from the south, where they had a tradition the men would take care of


    external affairs while the women would do the chores. Many men would never do housework when


    they were at home; they thought that was a woman''s job. Some would not even return a soy sauce


    bottle when they saw it misced in the kitchen.


    However, Lu Xingzhi was not like that; if he could do something, he would not let Jiang Yao do it. For


    example, if it were summer, he did not want Jiang Yao''s hands to get rough from washing she would


    need them for her surgeries. If it were winter, he would not allow her to touch cold water.


    Even though he was not a doctor, he knew that it was not good for a woman to touch cold water. It


    would hurt her body if she were used to cold water.


    "Put your feet onto the chair," Lu Xingzhi said without raising his head as he dragged the mop toward


    Jiang Yao''s ce. After she put her feet onto the chair, he quickly pulled it under the chair. Then, he


    started to talk about Old Liu''s phone call.


    "Old Liu told me that Sergeant Ge didn''t report to the police station after he was discharged from the


    hospital, nor did he look for him." Lu Xingzhi did not stop his hand movements as he spoke. "Old Liu


    only heard about Sergeant Ge''s discharge from the hospital sometimeter. He must have left because


    he was afraid that the medical fees would be too expensive."
