“Don’t keep putting food in my bowl. Aren’t you going to eat it yourself?” As Jiang Yao ate, she suddenly realized that Lu Xingzhi seemed to be staring at her. She then urged him patiently, “It’s not like I can eat my fill.”
“Who said so?” Lu Xingzhi answered with a faint smile, but he still lowered his head and drank two mouthfuls of soup.
Hearing his meaningful question, Jiang Yao knew what he meant. She pouted and pretended not to understand.
Anyway, she was already used to Lu Xingzhi’s personality. When she flirted with him verbally, he seemed especially pleased.
“The two people over there have been looking in our direction,” Lu Xingzhi suddenly said, sounding a little unhappy.
Jiang Yao also noticed and guessed that Zhu Qianlan was probably talking to the man opposite her. Jiang Yao was about to use her hearing to listen carefully when Zhu Qianlan and the man stood up.
She thought they were leaving, but in reality, they were walking toward her and Lu Xingzhi.
“Do you two mind letting me sit down?” The man who came with Zhu Qianlan stopped beside Jiang Yao, then lowered his head to look at Lu Xingzhi and Jiang Yao. He asked with a smile, but before Lu Xingzhi or Jiang Yao could answer, he pulled open an empty seat next to Jiang Yao and sat down.
Lu Xingzhi and Jiang Yao had four seats, with two chairs on each side. However, only the two of them were sitting on their own.
This made things easier for the man who asked the question. Without waiting for an answer, he sat down in a domineering manner.
Lu Xingzhi’s expression immediately changed.
The man finally sat down. He lifted his leg and kicked the chair from under the table. With his long legs, he kicked the chair, sending the uninvited man and the chair flying.
The sound was too abrupt in this quiet, high-class restaurant. The chairs that flew away with people flew across the tiles on the floor, creating an ear-piercing scraping sound. It scared the customers at the nearby tables, and many of the timid ones screamed in fear.
Lu Xingzhi stood up from his chair and walked to Jiang Yao’s side. In a protective posture, he pulled Jiang Yao behind him. He looked up at the person who was sitting there with a pale face and was so scared that he couldn’t say a word. He asked coldly, “I told you to sit? How shameless are you? How dare you sit without my invitation?”
Even Jiang Yao was shocked by Lu Xingzhi’s kick. He was so fast that she didn’t even see when he kicked.
However, she especially liked his rough actions. Looking at the cold-faced Lu Xingzhi, Jiang Yao felt that her man was simply too handsome!
She did not like the man’s earlier behavior. He was too frivolous, arrogant, and condescending.
Zhu Qianlan stood there, stunned by what she had just witnessed. It took her a few seconds before she regained her senses. She felt that she should have lashed out at Jiang Yao and her husband, but when she met the man’s eyes, Zhu Qianlan realized that she did not have the courage to say a word!
In her heart, she looked down on poor soldiers, and she looked down on this man even more. He relied on Jiang Yao to curry favor with other men to enter such a high-class restaurant for a meal.
However, she had to admit that she was afraid of this man. When they were in Rong County, just one look from him was enough to make her afraid, and now, his kick made her so afraid that she could not move a single step.
