"A little bit." Jiang Yao reached out her hand and gestured a little bit. She didn't think much of it, but Lu Xingzhi was amused by her childish actions.
Lu Xingzhi sat back down and peeled the orange for her. He even removed the shredded orange that she hated. Only then did he place a beautiful orange in her palm. "If you can't eat rice, it's not bad to eat some fruit."
"Maybe it's because my body has been weak for the past two days, so I don't have much of an appetite. I should be fine after resting for two days." Jiang Yao took a bite of the orange. September oranges in the south weren't very sweet. The green skin made people salivate just by looking at it. When she ate it, the taste of milk immediately washed away, and it made her stomach feel much better.
Jiang Yao didn't think that today's situation was due to a pregnancy reaction. After all, it was already past the first three months of pregnancy. A pregnancy reaction shouldn't have come so late.
For someone who hadn't had an appetite the whole day, Lu Xingzhi felt that Jiang Yao looked better than anything else when he saw her eating with relish.
If it wasn't for his phone ringing at the wrong time, Lu Xingzhi reckoned that he would have stared at Jiang Yao from the moment she ate the first piece of orange until the end.
"It's from the platoon. Let me answer it," Lu Xingzhi said to Jiang Yao, who was looking at him, before answering the call.
Jiang Yao pursed her lips and laughed in her heart. She just took a casual glance and didn't ask him to explain anything to her. She wasn't the kind of wife who had to watch over everything.
The call was from Shao Fucheng to Lu Xingzhi. He told Lu Xingzhi about Platoon Leader Hu's father.
"Platoon Leader Hu's father left the platoon this morning. He said that when he called his wife last night, his wife told him that a relative had passed away in his hometown and asked him to rush back the next morning." Shao Fucheng said, "We called Platoon Leader Hu's hometown to investigate the situation. Platoon Leader Hu's family did not pass away, and Platoon Leader Hu got on the train this morning. Logically speaking, he should be home by now, but Platoon Leader Hu's mother said that her husband had not returned home yet. Platoon Leader Hu's mother also confirmed that she did not tell her husband about the passing of a relative in her hometown last night. She said that she only asked her husband how her son was doing in the army last night, and then chatted for a while before ending the call."
"Can you verify the contents of the phone call?" After all, they were husband and wife. Lu Xingzhi felt that there was a possibility of lying.
"It's been verified. Platoon Leader Hu's house doesn't have a phone. Like most people in town, he receives calls from the public phone in the snack bar. Many people gather at the snack bar every night. When Platoon Leader Hu's mother answered the phone last night, many people heard it. It's been verified that Platoon Leader Hu's mother wasn't lying."
Shao Fucheng was silent for two seconds after he finished speaking. Then he said, "So this matter should be the work of Platoon Leader Hu's father. He left the platoon for no reason and even lied about the passing of a relative in his hometown."
Lu Xingzhi's mood was so gloomy that it was scary. It was obvious that Platoon Leader Hu's father left early because he was afraid that something would happen.
"Find him! We have to find Platoon Leader Hu's father even if we have to dig three feet into the ground. "Lu Xingzhi gritted his teeth as he said this.
