He originally called to tell Jiang Yao that he would go to Yuan City in two days. However, he could not bear to hang up after that conversation; he asked about Jiang Yao's lunch instead.
First, he casually asked her if she had eaten. After Jiang Yao told him that she was waiting for room service, he began to ask about her lunch in detail. He continued to tell her to eat more and take care of herself; he did not want her to lose weight. He also told her that the weather in the north was cold and windy, so she should wear warmer clothes if she were to go out so that she would not catch a cold while she was there.
Those slightly noisy words entered Jiang Yao's ears, but she was not annoyed with him. On the contrary, she listened to his words and answered him accordingly. She was so obedient that it made him extremely happy. Therefore, Jiang Yao got more energetic the more she spoke with her husband.
Jiang Yao thought that the reason she was not annoyed with him was probably she had not seen him for a while. She must have missed him, so she was quite tolerant with his words.
No matter how silent Lu Xingzhi was with outsiders, he had never suppressed his mood with her; he was almost like a different person in front of his wife.
Jiang Yao looked forward to Lu Xingzhi's arrival in Yuan City in two days. So that afternoon, she went out to get some things and then spent the whole afternoon in her room with handicrafts.
The MMS that Lu Xingzhi sent her that day had inspired her. Wen Xuehui was rightLu Xingzhi did not lack things that money could purchase. Since Lu Xingzhi seemed to enjoy the things she made, Jiang Yao decided to make a gift for him.
He already had a jar of plastic stars that he had taken from her mother's house, so she decided to fold a thousand paper cranes for him as his birthday gift. She could also write a sentence on each of those paper cranes.
