Can't Take My Eyes Off You novel Chapter 279

In Lu Xingzhi's point of view, Chen Feibai was basically rat droppings in the army. However, there were still people who had his back.

Climbing five floors for someone like Lu Xingzhi only took seconds and thinking of Jiang Yao who was waiting for him at home, his steps were light as though he was walking on air.

Reaching the door, he stood outside for a few seconds, collecting himself and smoothing out his emotions and expression, before raising his hand to knock on the door.

When Jiang Yao opened the door, he walked straight in. There was no trace of the cold anger and tenseness in his person that he had displayed downstairs when he was reprimanding the people just now.

"You're back." Jiang Yao said, tilting her head to look outside. Not seeing anyone else there, she did not ask further either.

"The head is looking for me, so I'll be out for a while. I'll be back before dinner to bring you to the cafeteria, there's going to be a welcome feast for you." His voice was low and hoarse as usual, but it was laced with gentleness. It was hard to hide the fondness and the affection in his words when he spoke to her.

Jiang Yao was well aware of how busy Lu Xingzhi was, and she was not expecting him to be able to be by her side 24/7 for the duration of her stay here.

"Go on, go. I'll find something to pass the time in my own home." Jiang Yao said, nodding her head. After that small exchange in the room with Lu Xingzhi, her hair was still in a mess.

Moreover, Lu Xingzhi particularly liked to play with her hair. She had hurriedly combed down her hair before rushing out just now, so she did not know whether she looked strange or not at the moment.

Hearing her say ˜her own home', Lu Xingzhi could not help the chuckle that escaped his mouth as he smiled. That she was well aware of what the place was meant to be, made him absolutely satisfied.

After Lu Xingzhi had left, the first thing Jiang Yao did was comb her hair. In the month that she let her hair grow out, the length was at an awkward length right now. Tying it up would look weird, letting it down would be too messy. With the thought that she would be heading out at night, she needed to settle on a style for it. Curling the front portion of her hair, and letting the rest down, it did not feel as messy as it did.
