Can't Take My Eyes Off You novel Chapter 85

She wanted to shout if she was in pain and cry if she was in a bad mood.

Lu Xingzhi was her husband and there was no need for her to pretend that she was alright in front of him.

Jiang Yao gave a seemingly distressed reply. Her tone was partly coquettish, while at the same time, she was seemingly whining and complaining. Lu Xingzhi's heart wavered. "I will take care of Zhao Zhuangzong for you."

"He has been arrested." Jiang Yao chuckled. "Seems like he was in bad shape."

Jiang Yao could tell that Lu Xingzhi had rushed back home through the night and had probably not rested as he was worried about her. Jiang Yao looked at Lu Xingzhi, who was standing beside her, lost in his thoughts. Then, she gave him a slight nudge in his palm by using her hand, which was being held in his. "Get on the bed. Cuddle with me and sleep for a while. The doctor has asked me to lie on my stomach but it's not comfortable. I want to sleep on your chest."

He would do anything Jiang Yao wanted, especially at this particular moment. He would not only be her personal bolster, but even if she wanted him to fly for her, he would figure it out and grow a pair of wings to cheer her up. Perhaps it might help ease the pain in her back.

Lu Xingzhi immediately went to the washroom and changed into his pure cotton clothing before getting onto the bed. The bed was very small. As soon as he got onto it, he reached his arms out and placed Jiang Yao in his arms to avoid squeezing her off the bed. Then, he helped Jiang Yao adjust her sleeping posture and let her lie on his chest.

"Close your eyes and sleep. Mom and the others will be delivering breakfast at around eight o'clock. There are almost three hours left, get some sleep."

Upon hearing what Jiang Yao said, Lu Xingzhi only realized then that she was concerned about him not being able to sleep for the whole night.

Perhaps Jiang Yao was really sleepy, or perhaps it was because Lu Xingzhi was by her side, Jiang Yao was fast asleep in no time as she leaned on Lu Xingzhi.

However, Lu Xingzhi could not fall asleep despite not getting any rest throughout the night.

By listening to her gentle breath, Lu Xingzhi could sense that she was emotionally attached to him. Perhaps her transformation was really sudden, but Lu Xingzhi was enraptured by that.
