Words:810Update:22/07/01 04:06:13
The night in Rong County was more desolate than anywhere else. Walking in the residential area, one could hear the sounds of crying everywhere. There were children who wanted to go home for no reason, as well as adults who had lost their loved ones.
Of course, there was also a group of youths who didn't know how to worry and play together. Their childlike laughter made the depressing atmosphere much better.
Just when everyone was worried about how long the rain would last, the rain finally stopped.
Someone shouted that the rain had stopped, and people ran out of their tents one after another to confirm it. Then, they hugged each other and cried excitedly.
Lu Xingzhi didn't return to the Changkang Group's residential area until after nine in the evening. It was obvious that he had been busy for the entire afternoon and night. He didn't seem to care about the chief's order to rest at all.
"Wife." Lu Xingzhi lifted the curtain of the tent and walked in with his things in his hands. He called out to Jiang Yao before he saw her. When Jiang Yao responded, he called out to Lu Yuqing, who was making the bed. "Sis, you didn't go back?"
"Changkang Group still has supplies to send over tomorrow. We still need people here. Why would I go back?" Lu Yuqing rolled her eyes at Lu Xingzhi and muttered, "You're just a younger brother I picked up!"
Jiang Yao giggled. She could also feel Lu Yuqing's disdain for Lu Xingzhi. His current image was really damaging to his identity as Third Young Master Lu.
She walked over and pulled down the belt hanging behind Lu Xingzhi's back. She threw it outside and said, "I'll get you some water to wash your face."
Lu Xingzhi nodded and reminded her, "Don't pour too much. It'll be a waste. The county is still in a state of water shortage."
Jiang Yao nodded and quickly poured out a small basin of water. Then, she put her towel in it.
"Since he's already used water, let him wipe his body while he's at it. I'll wait outside." Lu Yuqing put on her coat and walked out.
Jiang Yao nodded and quickly said, "Sister, wait for me. I'll go out with you!"
"What are you going out for?" Lu Xingzhi pulled Jiang Yao back. "Is there anything on my body that you haven't seen?"
"Lu Xingzhi!" Jiang Yao stomped her feet with a red face. Seeing Lu Yuqing teasing her and then striding away, Jiang Yao wanted to turn around and kill Lu Xingzhi. "Can you not talk nonsense in front of me?"
"I'm telling the truth. We're husband and wife," Lu Xingzhi explained seriously.
"…" That wasn't what she was talking about. What she was talking about was, could he not talk so ambiguously in front of others?
Jiang Yao felt that she needed to take a ruler and measure how thick-skinned Lu Xingzhi was. Why didn't he feel embarrassed?
"You're talking as if I've never seen you! I'm older than you. She was the one who took care of you when you were young! "
"I don't know. I don't remember." Lu Xingzhi replied disapprovingly. Then, he took off his shirt and wiped his face with a wet towel before wiping his upper body.
Jiang Yao had no energy to argue with someone who didn't know what shame was. It was completely useless, okay?
Lu Yuqing was nowhere to be found. Jiang Yao didn't know where to chase after her, so she didn't follow her out. Instead, she sat on the bed and talked to Lu Xingzhi.
