After tidying up the room, Jiang Yao went back to bed to sleep. She was deep in slumber until Mrs. Lu went upstairs and called her for lunch.
"Did you go to the airport this morning to send Xingzhi off?" Mrs. Lu asked as she saw Jiang Yao's creased clothes. She must have changed before going out and immediately slept after she returned.
Jiang Yao nodded sleepily. "Yes, his flight was at nine o'clock, I got home at ten. I was a bit sleepy so I lay down for a nap, but I didn't expect to sleep for so long."
Mrs. Lu smiled instead, she wasn't blaming Jiang Yao. She glanced into the room and saw that the bedsheets had been replaced and the room cleaned. From the looks of it, she knew that her son was the reason Jiang Yao couldn't get enough sleep. Lu Xingzhi must have tormented her all night last night.
Mrs. Lu was even more delighted when she heard that Jiang Yao had sent Lu Xingzhi to the airport. It seemed that the seed of love in Jiang Yao's heart had blossomed.
"It's okay. Come, let's eat, you can continue your nap after lunch," Mrs. Lu said with a gentle smile. She even thought about cooking something delicious for Jiang Yao that night.
Jiang Yao was convinced that her mother-in-law hadn't suspected anything since she had cleaned the room so thoroughly. She nodded and went downstairs for lunch.
In the afternoon, when Jiang Yao slept until three o'clock, she was awakened by a phone call. Initially, she thought that it was from Lu Xingzhi. When she picked it up, it was actually Lu Xiaoxiao who wanted to ask her out for a movie in the county.
"Sister, it is a very funny comedy. The driver is already on his way to pick you up. Stay over at my place tonight and I'll send you home tomorrow." After their conversation last night, Lu Xiaoxiao knew that Jiang Yao liked to watch comedies and she was eager to go to the movies with Jiang Yao. She said that it would be more interesting for two people to watch and laugh together.
