Can’t Take My Eyes Off You

“When Colonel Lu came here for training, he did not bring anything else. He brought the paper crane that his wife folded for him and placed it under the bed every day, carefully looking at it and touching it.” Xiao Gao seemed proud when he spoke. “His wife is the most beautiful woman in the world. Even though the scouts say that you’re also beautiful, his wife is a thousand times better looking than you! You compare to her! His wife is beautiful and gentle, and she is also a university student. You can’t compare to his wife, so he must be playing you to kill time!”

“He has a thousand paper cranes with him?” Jiang Yao recovered from her shock and asked.

“Yes! If you don’t believe me, go and look in his bag to see if there is a metal box! His wife is a gentle and romantic person. There are words written to him in each thousand paper cranes. When he misses her, he will open one and take a look. After reading it, he will carefully put the paper back into the box. The box is his treasure. Whoever touches it will offend him.”

“That’s the case, indeed.”

Old Yang nodded in agreement.

Jiang Yao’s eyes immediately lit up with a smile. She thought that the fool would only discover the secret of the paper cranes when he was old!

Jiang Yao smiled when she heard what Xiao Gao and Old Yang think of their colonel’s wife.

“You’ve her? You know that she is better than me?” Jiang Yao asked, feigning disbelief. “As far as I know, you’ve only just been transferred from another military base to this place, right?”

“We have met before!”

Xiao Gao answered quickly, almost without thinking, “Anyway, she is a thousand times better looking than you. You can’t compete with his wife!”

Old Yang patted Xiao Gao and said, “We have met before. During the flood in Rong County, his wife went to the front line. We met her at that time. His wife is kind and gentle. She is indeed better than you. She and Colonel Lu are a match made in heaven.”

Jiang Yao was certain that she had never met Old Yang and Xiao Gao in Rong County. She had only met some of Lu Xingzhi’s comrades in Rong County back then. She did not see anyone familiar in the Blue Team’s command center. They must have been sent out by Lu Xingzhi and not returned to the center. It was also possible that they were eliminated in the selection process.

Therefore, Old Yang and Xiao Gao were obviously lying through their teeth.

After hearing that, Jiang Yao knew that Xiao Gao and Old Yang had misunderstood Lu Xingzhi and her because they did not know her identity and happened to see her and Lu Xingzhi having a tryst by the pool in the middle of the night.

However, when she thought about how she and Lu Xingzhi were seen kissing by the pool last night, Jiang Yao felt a little embarrassed.

Furthermore, she was the one who initiated the last kiss. They probably thought that she was the kind of woman who would break up a marriage. They also misunderstood that Lu Xingzhi was the kind of person who would fool around while married.

Jiang Yao thought that if she did not explain things clearly to Xiao Gao and Old Yang, the two of them might tear her apart.

Obviously, they had never seen Lu Xingzhi’s wife, but they were very protective of her.
