1808: Spend More Time With Her

Spend More Time With Her

"You—" Liang Yueze wanted to ask him what he was going to do, but he decided against it after some deliberation. He knew precisely what Lu Xingzhi would do.0

Lu Xingzhi was not the only one who was upset over the kidnapping. Even his brothers were furious. Chen Xuyao took Chu Sheng more seriously than anyone could have predicted.

When Chu Sheng vanished, Chen Xuyao appeared to have gone insane. He arrived at his residence late at night, weary. He used the tone that Liang Yueze had only ever heard once in his life, and he sounded so concerned when he asked, "Big Brother, what should I do? Chu Sheng had vanished yet again. What am I supposed to do? I can't seem to find her."

Zhou Weiqi had a cold and unpredictable nature. On the surface, Chen Xuyao resembled Zhou Weiqi, yet Chen Xuyao had more secrets hidden in his heart than Zhou Weiqi.

Chen Xuyao had a more stubborn personality than Zhou Weiqi. He would not easily concede defeat and would not bow his head. Chu Sheng's unexpected absence had swallowed all of Chen Xuyao's tranquility.

Lu Xingzhi was aware of Liang Yueze's thoughts. He chuckled and shook his head. "I have been keeping an eye on the Zhu family for quite some time. I know what I am going to do. The Zhu family has spent much too much time in Ping City. Someone else should take over now."

"But the Qian family is a different matter," Lu Xingzhi said after Liang Yueze nodded. "The Qian family's status in Jindo City differs significantly from the Zhu family's position in Ping City. So, I might need your help with them."

Lu Xingzhi requested Liang Yueze's assistance, like how he would speak to his family members. His tone was devoid of pretense. He would ask them personally, just as the Liang family and other brothers could ask him directly.

"All right, leave the Qian family to me," Liang Yueze said. "Make the most of the time you have left to accompany your wife. My family and I will keep a close eye on Chen Xuyao's situation."

"You are a soldier," Liang Yueze said after a little pause. "Your job is not like ours in many ways. You work harder than we do and have less time to spend with her. Spend more time with her now that you have the time."

Lu Xingzhi was taken aback when he heard that. He was certain his other brothers would say the same thing. However, Liang Yueze would not utter such things.

"Have you heard about Ruoran?"

Lu Xingzhi could only speculate on the explanation.

"How long do you think you will be able to keep it from me? The Luo family is aware of her pregnancy, as is practically everyone else. Only a deaf person would be unable to hear such news." Liang Yueze was alluding to the people at home. He had a wide range of information sources, so even if everyone purposefully kept the news of Luo Ruoran's pregnancy from him, they could not keep it hidden for long.

It could not be kept a secret for long, just like the news of Luo Ruoran's marriage.

"She had remarried and is now pregnant. It is time for you to let her go."

Before bidding Liang Yueze farewell, Lu Xingzhi touched his shoulder and looked down at his wristwatch.

Chu Sheng and Chen Xuyao remained at the police station and did not accompany Lu Xingzhi. He drove to where Jiang Yao purchased the car and personally observed the car's repair. Then, he went to buy some fruits that Jiang Yao enjoyed before returning to the army base.

They had headed out first thing in the morning. When he returned, it was already time for dinner. When Lu Xingzhi opened the door, he saw Jiang Yao hugging Moe and doing something in front of the TV. Jiang Yao's hand was resting on a platter of fruits.
