Jiang Yao nodded instinctively but felt like an idiot after doing it. How could Lu Xingzhi see what she just did? She then murmured as a reply.
It was a long silence afterward. She knew, however, that he was not asleep.
“Xingzhi, I will tell you everything once I have figured out how to say it to you. It’s just, how should I say it, absurd.” Jiang Yao smiled wryly. She did not know if Lu Xingzhi would believe the things about her rebirth, and the Medical System. Moreover, everyone, except Jiang Yao, had been forbidden knowledge about the Medical System.
“I am not in a hurry.” He could wait decades for her to reciprocate his love, not to mention a little secret of hers.
Jiang Yao thought that Lu Xingzhi would stay quiet again, before hearing his voice suddenly, beckoning her to come over.
“Let me wear my shoes,” she answered. Lu Xingzhi stopped her from turning on the lights. She thought that something was going on, but followed his instruction, nonetheless.
Even in the darkness, her vision was pretty good, for she managed to walk over to Lu Xingzhi’s bed without any accidents. She bent over and asked, “What do you want?”
Lu Xingzhi chuckled suddenly. “Nothing, I just want to look at you.”
Jiang Yao broke into the widest smile, butterflies fluttered in her stomach.
“See for yourself then.” She sat down at the side of his bed and smiled. “Do you want me to turn on the lights?”
She did not do it though. Instead, she scooted closer to him and kissed him on the lips.
The darkness was the perfect wingman. She actually kissed him—who was awake—without feeling embarrassed.
After all, Lu Xingzhi looked extremely attractive in her eyes. It was normal for her to fall again and again for him.
Lu Xingzhi was pleased with what happened. He liked how assertive his wife was at showing her love.
“One more time?” Jiang Yao pointed her finger at Lu Xingzhi and wiggled it. Hearing his reply, she laughed softly and kissed him again, before standing up with a satisfied grin.
“I don’t think you will find anyone more attractive than me in this world.” Lu Xingzhi sighed suddenly. “Look at you, so shallow, falling for the hot guys only! What if you fall for someone else?”
Jiang Yao did not know what to say. Was he praising himself while teasing her?
“Don’t worry, I only have my eyes for you.” Jiang Yao laughed, lightly touching his hands with her fingers.
“Come sleep with me.” Lu Xingzhi tried scooting over to create more space for Jiang Yao but was stopped by her.
“Don’t move, you know the way I sleep.”
She did not have the best sleeping posture, but other than that, she was used to sleeping in his arms. What use was it if she could not do it now?
