Can't Take My Eyes Off You

"What's wrong?" Even though Lu Yuqing was talking to Huang Chengjing, she still noticed that something was wrong with Jiang Yao's expression.

She furrowed her beautiful eyebrows and sat there quietly as if she was thinking about something significant.

Ever since Jiang Yao graduated from high school and went to university, Lu Yuqing had only seen her lazy expressions. It was rare to see such a different expression on her face.

"It's nothing." Jiang Yao snapped back to her senses and shook her head at Lu Yuqing. However, her attention was still on the news. After answering with only one sentence, she quieted down again. However, the news was already talking about other reports. The news anchor began to analyze the impact of Master Sen's death on YN's politics.

That was not what Jiang Yao wanted to know, so after listening for more than a minute, she stopped listening.

Lu Yuqing noticed that Jiang Yao had snapped back to her senses, so she asked, "YN is very chaotic now. Has your second brother returned home?"

"Yes, he is now in Jindo City. Hasn't Xiaoxiao called you to complain about how he controlled her so tightly these past few days? My second brother's bad habit has reared its ugly head again. He's been controlling her every day. Xiaoxiao thought she would have a lot of freedom in Jindo City. She did not expect my second brother to be even stricter with her than her father. She complained to me a few times."

Jiang Yao giggled. "But I can't persuade my second brother. He's stubborn. Since he promised Xiaoxiao's father to take good care of her, he must do it. So he's even stricter than when he controlled me at home."

"Someone should be controlling Xiaoxiao. Second Uncle, Mom, and Dad have spoiled her too much. Someone has to control her. Otherwise, there might be consequences for her." Lu Yuqing burst out Laughing. Then, she teased Jiang Yao. "You can't wait to go back to Luo City and stay with Xingzhi. Isn't he nagging you as well?"

Jiang Yao pouted. "He does! The more he cares about me, the more he bags. It's like having another father. My father doesn't even care that much about me at home."

"That's because he pampers you, so he wants to control you. When a man cares about you, he will pamper you unconditionally, and he will also control you." Huang Chengjing defended Lu Xingzhi. He hoped that things would be better for him.

"I know. Even though I sometimes think that he's annoying, I never quarreled with him about it." Jiang Yao smiled. "But sometimes, he makes me so angry that I want to go out and buy a knife to kill him."

"Forget it. Even if you were angry, you wouldn't be willing to kill him, even if you had the kitchen knife in your hand. In the past, I thought that you would be the one to control him. Now, I know that's not the case. At first, he was afraid that you would be angry and ignore him if he did that. Later, after a few trials and errors, he learned that your tolerance and patience toward him were surprisingly high, so he revealed his true colors."

Lu Yuqing mercilessly exposed the way Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi got along. However, even though she seemed to be mocking the couple, she was envious of them.

She sighed again. "It's good that you guys are getting along. When he made a scene, you tolerated him. And you did the same for him."
