After Lu Xingzhi entered the room, he did not rummage through Jiang Yao's things. Instead, he stood in the middle of the room and looked around.
This was the second time he had entered this room. The first time was when he came to pick up the bride and carry her out of the house on their wedding day. That day, he was so happy and focused on looking at Jiang Yao that he did not take a good look at Jiang Yao's room.
Jiang Yao's room was similar to the rooms of young girls nowadays. There were a few posters of famous movie stars and singers pasted on the walls of the room. There was a glass bottle on the desk, filled with colorful plastic tubes that were folded into a five-pointed star. It was a unique sight to behold when placed on the brightly lit desk.
Lu Xingzhi casually picked up the glass bottle and poured out the stars into his palm to have a look. Then, he put the bottle back and put the stars into his pocket.
"What are you doing?" Jiang Yao asked curiously.
"Did you fold these stars?" Lu Xingzhi did not answer her question. He put his hands in his pockets and did not look embarrassed at all.
Jiang Yao nodded and smiled embarrassedly. "When I was in my first year of high school, folding these things was popular in class. I learned how to fold stars and paper cranes. Then, I folded this bottle." At the time, thinking back, it was really childish.
Lu Xingzhi nodded. "I heard from your mother that you also folded 1001 paper cranes for your classmate as a birthday present. You spent more than half a month folding them."
If he did not mention it, Jiang Yao would have forgotten about it. Now that she thought about it carefully, it did seem like it was true. Because her classmate was transferring schools in the second semester, Jiang Yao was very close to her, so she gave her a birthday present very attentively. After that classmate transferred schools, Jiang Yao lost contact with her.
Lu Xingzhi saw that Jiang Yao was no longer asking him why he took her folded stars. He turned around and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly. This little girl was so easy to fool. She forgot what she was asking after just a few sentences.
Holding the stars she folded herself, it would be nice to be able to touch her handiwork when he returned to the army and could not see her in person.
"Sigh, what a pity. I don't even know where she is now." Jiang Yao sighed and then looked curiously at Lu Xingzhi. "You seem to know a lot about me."
"Is that strange?" Lu Xingzhi raised his eyebrows. Back then, in order to marry her, he had put in a lot of effort. He had also visited the Jiang family frequently. After all, Jiang Yao was really young at the time, and Mr. and Mrs. Jiang were reluctant to marry their daughter off. He had a good opportunity to convince his parents-in-law. During this time, he naturally learned a lot about Jiang Yao from his parents-in-law.
Hearing Lu Xingzhi's rhetorical question, Jiang Yao shook her head and then smiled gently at him.
The strange thing was that he knew about her. It was not strange at all that he knew about her. Because he loved her. If he loved someone, wouldn't he try his best to find out more about her?
"Thank you for just now." Jiang Yao hesitated for a long time before she finally opened her mouth to thank him. "If it wasn't for you just now, my dad would have been so angry that he would have kicked me out of the house."
"Mm." Lu Xingzhi thought for a while and said, "If you really want to thank me, you can grow your hair."
