1100: Did He Ask?

Did He Ask?

Jiang Yao glared at Lu Xingzhi; she was annoyed with him. "If you continue like this, then I won't get pregnant!"2

Lu Xingzhi's expression froze. In comparison, he chose not to say anything in the end. If Jiang Yao got angry, he would lose more than he gained.

"Then give birth to whichever gender you like."

Lu Xingzhi decided to compromise. He lowered his head and kissed his wife. The corners of his lips curled into a smile.

They would get a daughter eventually.

Regardless of whether it was a boy or a girl, the most important task was to make his wife pregnant. For that goal, Lu Xingzhi held his wife and struggled for half a night.

The next morning, Lu Xingzhi went to work as usual. It was too cold outside, and Jiang Yao was unwilling to go out. She was alone in her bedroom as she folded the paper cranes. Moe wagged his tail quietly and leaned against Jiang Yao as he watched her busy herself. He probably thought that those handmade paper cranes were interesting. He asked Jiang Yao to fold some toys for him as well.

"He did not ask you what birthday present I prepared for him, did he?"

Jiang Yao suddenly remembered Moe's identity as a spy and asked nervously.

Moe's tail, which was wagging casually, suddenly stopped, and he slowly raised his eyes to look at Jiang Yao.

Jiang Yao knew from Mo's expression that she had asked the right question. Lu Xingzhi must have asked him about him.

"Did you tell him?"

Jiang Yao stretched her hand and pointed at Moe's head. "Where's your pride? Eaten by a dog?"

"Your man did ask, but I don't know what you prepared for him. What am I supposed to answer?" Moe stretched his paw and scratched the two thousand paper cranes that Jiang Yao had prepared. "You're not going to fold those things for him as a birthday present, are you?"

Jiang Yao paused for a moment; then, she laughed.

With Moe's IQ, when he saw Jiang Yao laughing like that, he realized that Jiang Yao did fold those little things as a birthday present for her man.

He knew that Jiang Yao had been secretly doing those things for the past few days, but he did not know what those things were for. When Lu Xingzhi asked him that day, he could not answer him because he did not know.

"I will never understand the thoughts of you humans."

Moe pulled on the paper crane. "I would want cakes, chicken drumsticks, braised meat, and beautiful diamond toys for my birthday."

What else could Jiang Yao say?

Even a high-IQ pet butler could be stupid, right? Jiang Yao wanted to laugh.

After she thought about it for a while, Jiang Yao said, "Because chicken drumsticks and braised meat are very expensive, they can't be given away just because you want them."

Moe looked at Jiang Yao with a dubious look. Even though he had not had chicken drumsticks and braised meat many times since he followed Jiang Yao, he needed to eat meat every day. However, he did not see those two dishes in Jiang Yao's place often because they were expensive. 

When Moe heard what Jiang Yao said, he recalled his life before Jiang Yao. He noted that it must have been the case, indeed. He had stolen a few pieces of meat from their neighbor, which caused the pregnant women to be scolded for a long time. Jiang Yao's man doted on her, so he worked hard to buy meat for her every day.

Therefore, after careful evaluation, it seemed like he did not suffer any losses when he followed Jiang Yao. At least he got meat dishes and new toys every other day. He had a comfortable life.
