She ran toward Lu Xingzhi as fast as she could without care and hugged him tightly.
"What on earth-"
Lu Xingzhi was solidly frightened. He came out of the tent only to be jumped on by someone else. The impact of the collision shoved him a few steps back while the culprit seemed to not realize it and kept nuzzling his chest.
Instinctively, he was about to kick the person, no matter the gender, away. Luckily, he saw who she was and stopped his swing just in time.
"Yaoyao?" Lu Xingzhi smiled resignedly and patted her head. She did not care if he was filthy and kept rubbing her face on his clothes.
The initial shock was followed by the joy of reunion and then came the concern and worry.
"Don't you know it's dangerous here in Rong County? Why did you come here alone? The audacity!" The more he said, the more concerned he got and the angrier he became. He raised his hand and smacked Jiang Yao on the butt three times. He was obviously furious as he did not hold back.
Jiang Yao looked at Lu Xingzhi teary-eyed after the unexpected assault.
If only they were somewhere isolated, she would have given him a piece of her mind!
Nobody else had ever beaten her.
Not even her own parents!
Lu Xingzhi raised his eyebrows. Seemed like she was really angry, having cursed at him.
He was even angrier!
Realizing that people were watching, Lu Xingzhi lifted his wife up and put her on his shoulder. She struggled, flailing her limbs around but was greeted with another hit on her butt. "Can it!" Although it was not as heavy-handed as before.
Jiang Yao did not want to speak to Lu Xingzhi at all. She put her hands around her butt, shielding them from further hits, and let Lu Xingzhi do what he wanted.
