1889: I Will Starve To Death

I Will Starve To Death

Lu Xingzhi had no secrets from Jiang Yao, whether his wallet or his phone.2

Jiang Yao also did not specifically look at Lu Xingzhi's phone. She only glanced at it and saw Liang Yueze's text message because he did not exit the page after reading it.

It was a text message from Liang Yueze, congratulating him. However, Jiang Yao thought of Luo Ruoran, who was abroad. She did not know when she would be able to congratulate Liang Yueze.

Lu Xingzhi was proud that he was the first of his brothers to marry and become a father.

However, that was not the case. Despite not being the first to marry, Liang Yueze was the first to become a father. Luo Ruoran's due date was approaching, but Jiang Yao was only two months pregnant.

However, no one knew. They thought Luo Ruoran was only a few months pregnant.

During that period, Jiang Yao had not had the time to contact Luo Ruoran. She did not know how she was doing after she went through with a fake marriage. It was hard to be pregnant alone abroad.

Lu Xingzhi came back after 15 minutes. When he returned, the dishes were served. He came back with a big bag of things in his hands.

"I bought some milk powder and biscuits for you. If you are hungry after class, you can make some milk and eat some biscuits. The shop owner said that the milk powder is excellent for pregnant women, and I also bought some fruits for you. I will wash them and put them on the table when we get back. You can eat them whenever you want."

Although he was willing to fetch Jiang Yao up after her classes every day, Lu Xingzhi always wanted to make sure she had enough time to stay at the dormitory.

It was September, and the weather in the south had not turned cold yet. It was still stuffy and hot all day long. Lu Xingzhi did not have to worry about Jiang Yao catching a cold, but he was afraid that Jiang Yao would be hungry.

He could not be by her side all the time, nor could he arrange for people to follow her around, much less let her stay at home. So, he had to try his best to arrange a slightly more comfortable life for her.

Everything tasted good when one was hungry. Jiang Yao happily ate a plate of chicken and two platters of vegetarian dishes. She ordered a substantial amount of food and did not squander a single bite. Her stomach was stuffed from all the food she had eaten.

After that, the two of them strolled back to the dormitory. After taking a shower, they lay on the bed.

The bed in Jiang Yao's dormitory was not big. The two of them lay with their hands almost touching each other, not to roll off the bed. Therefore, Lu Xingzhi took the opportunity to hug Jiang Yao tightly in his arms.

Pregnant women hated the heat. Jiang Yao pushed Lu Xingzhi a few times but could not push him away. Therefore, she could only make him fan her to keep cool. The two of them were lying on their sides, and Lu Xingzhi was sleeping on the outside. As a result, the airflow from the electric fan was entirely obstructed.

"I will have breakfast tomorrow morning and return to the army. I will pick you up at 6:00 p.m. to bring you home." Lu Xingzhi stroked Jiang Yao's hair. "Be careful at school during the day. Don't go to crowded places. If you see people pushing and shoving, avoid them. Don't let them bump into you."

"I think it's more convenient for me to drive back by myself."

Jiang Yao shook her head. "You're picking me up at 6:00 p.m. You'll get to my school at 7:00 p.m. and then get home at 8:00 p.m. Then, you'll cook for half an hour. By the time I finish eating, it's already 8:30 p.m. I think I might starve to death."

Jiang Yao's worried expression amused Lu Xingzhi; she thought she would starve to death. After laughing for a few seconds, he also felt that it was too troublesome to go back and forth.
