He was such a petty man that she did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Jiang Yao held her phone and shook her head helplessly. It seemed that even Liang Yueze knew about Lu Xingzhi's pettiness and jealousy. That was why he was so frightened by her request to take a photo with him in the morning that even his usual cold face disappeared and he left in a hurry.
"Why are you smiling foolishly by yourself?" Mother Jiang asked curiously.
"Nothing." Jiang Yao quickly put her phone away. "I'll go to the study for a while. Xingzhi brought some things back last night. I'll see if I can help him look at them."
"Let him look at them slowly. You have to pay attention to your rest now. Don't tire yourself out," Mother Lu said. "Go in and look at them for half an hour, then come out and rest for a while."
They knew that Jiang Yao knew her limits. If it was a confidential document in the army, Lu Xingzhi would not have brought it back. Jiang Yao would not have been so tactless as to sneak in and look at it. Therefore, Father and Mother Lu did not specifically mention anything to Jiang Yao.
As soon as Jiang Yao entered Lu Xingzhi's study, she noticed that there was something extra on Lu Xingzhi's desk.
It was a photo of the two of them when they were traveling in Lanning. Previously, she had put this photo in his favorite book and put it on the bookshelf. He would read that book when he was free.
In the photo, only half of her face was exposed. She was wearing a pair of sunglasses on the bridge of her nose. She used her shawl as a headscarf to sun herself. Her entire body was spread out on Lu Xingzhi's body. She was as lazy as a boneless person. His hands were wrapped around her waist, and his palms were resting on her lower abdomen.
She smiled brightly at the camera, and he happened to be looking down at her.
The photo was taken with the help of another tourist. That tourist was a warm-hearted person and helped her take a few photos with Lu Xingzhi.
After the photos were developed, Lu Xingzhi liked this one the most.
After finding out that she was pregnant, Lu Xingzhi liked this photo even more. This was the first time the three of them took a photo together. The baby was still small in her stomach, but it was already there. His chief happened to be protecting the baby from the sun.
When Jiang Yao came into the study last night, the photo was not on the desk. But this morning, it appeared.
Jiang Yao didn't need to think too much to know that Lu Xingzhi must have taken an old photo frame and mounted it on the desk before he went out in the morning. He even placed it on the most conspicuous spot on the desk, as if he was afraid that someone would see it.
As soon as she saw this photo, Jiang Yao thought that it was the photo of her and Liang Yueze. So this guy, haha, was a jealous person.
Jiang Yao rummaged through the more conspicuous spots in Lu Xingzhi's study. She didn't find the things he brought back yesterday, so she went out. She guessed that he might have taken them with him when he went out in the morning.
But Jiang Yao was puzzled. If he knew that she would help him look at them when she was free, why did he still take them with him? He had already asked her to help at night. Wouldn't it be faster if she helped him look at them during the day?
Jiang Yao was muttering in the study when Mama Lu knocked on the door and called out to her, "Your phone is ringing. Professor Ouyang is calling you."
Jiang Yao answered and opened the door. She took the phone from Mama Lu and pressed the answer button.
