Can't Take My Eyes Off You

"How could Xingzhi bear bully her? It's good enough that she didn't order him around." Mrs. Jiang smiled and asked Jiang Yao, "Did you continue to play games and send text messages on your phone, which irritated Xingzhi? Otherwise, why would he drop your phone into the gap between the sofa for no reason?"

Jiang Yao's mother glanced at the gap in the sofa and burst into laughter. "It seems like he was quite angry. He was probably trying to crush your phone by stuffing it so far down."

Jiang Yao stood there with an innocent look on her face. "I didn't mess with him this morning. It's more like he messed with me."

Jiang Yao expressed that she was wrongly accused. She did not mess with Lu Xingzhi on her phone that morning. He inexplicably put her phone into the gap between the sofa.

The sofa was also a relatively trendy fabric sofa, so it was not easy to dig into the gaps.

Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Lu spent a lot of effort helping Jiang Yao get her phone. Jiang Yao checked her phone to see if there were any new messages. She was a little disappointed that there were none.

She did not know what message Lu Xingzhi had sent to the other party. She did not know why the other party was so calm that they did not reply to her message.

Jiang Yao suppressed her curiosity. She did what she had to do and called Professor Ouyang.

Professor Ouyang had been at school for the past few days. When he received a call from Jiang Yao, he readily agreed to her request. "It just so happens that I have nothing to do now. I'll go there and get it for you. If you need it urgently, find someone to come here to get it. If you don't need it urgently, I'll keep it until you return."

"No need, then I'll have to trouble you to take care of it for a while," Jiang Yao said as she thanked him.

"It's a small matter. Take care of your health, and there's no need to rush to school. Anyway, there's nothing urgent here anyway." Even though he was not too happy about Jiang Yao taking time off all the time, he knew that she had to take care of her baby. Professor Ouyang understood that, so he did not urge Jiang Yao to come to class.

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yao opened the inbox again. The top one was the text message that Lu Xingzhi sent to the woman.

When she opened it, there was only one sentence in it. It was short, but it was enough.

[My man.]

Two words that marked her ownership.

Two words. It was hundreds of times better than Jiang Yao's incredibly pretentious and long string of words.

That was Lu Xingzhi's style. The knife went in, and blood came out. That woman must have vomited blood when she saw it.

Jiang Yao thought that it was a pity. It was a pity that she could not see the woman's reaction the second she received that message.

Jiang Yao carefully savored the two words that Lu Xingzhi used. Then, she opened the photo and looked at it. She held her phone and laughed until she was almost out of breath.

She seemed to understand why Lu Xingzhi stuffed her phone into the gap between the sofa and did not let her see it.

When she and Liang Yueze took the photos, Lu Xingzhi did not stop them, but he seemed jealous. He had to send the picture to another person and even had to write the message. He must have been furious with himself.

When Lu Xingzhi helped her send that text message, Jiang Yao guessed that he must have thought, 'That's okay. She's my woman, but I can lend her to you.'

Of course, he meant Luo Ruoran. He knew that Jiang Yao wanted to avenge Luo Ruoran.
