“Maybe.” Lu Xingzhi patted Zhou Junmin’s shoulder. “My mother-in-law is at home. I’ll go back and reassure her.”

“Go. Mrs. Jiang has been crying so hard these past few days that she almost has no expression.” Zhou Junmin nodded repeatedly and urged Lu Xingzhi to hurry back. When he saw Jiang Yao’s mother, the elder sat in a daze and did not even say a word.

Lu Xingzhi felt a little sorry after seeing Zhou Junmin’s worried expression. It was not that he did not think Zhou Junmin would leak the information. Zhou Junmin had accompanied him from the Jin City Army; Zhou Junmin was his right-hand man. However, Zhou Junmin was not a person who could keep a secret. He was afraid that Zhou Junmin would discover the truth and that he would be unable to put on a show.

Mrs. Jiang had already prepared dinner for Lu Xingzhi when he returned home. Mrs. Jiang followed Lu Xingzhi’s taste because Jiang Yao was not at home. She even followed Jiang Yao’s advice and made soup for Lu Xingzhi to help his wounds heal. That soup would be available to Lu Xingzhi as long as he ate at home.

At night, it was quiet all around. The only sound was Mrs. Jiangs and Lu Xingzhi’s bowls and spoons. It was not loud or soft. There was one fewer person, so it appeared to be much quieter.

Jiang Yao was a little chatterbox. She always talked when she ate. As long as she was in a good mood, she could talk for a long time at home every day.

‘Mom, she should be back in a few days.” Lu Xingzhi ate the dishes Mrs. Jiang had cooked, but they were tasteless. Even though Jiang Yao had not mentioned that, Lu Xingzhi knew it was only a matter of time.

“It’s because of Yaoyao’s classmates, right?” Although Jiang Yao’s mother was at home every day, it was not as if she did not hear about other affairs. There was a radio at home, so she did not go out. The radio was always turned on; therefore, she knew what was happening outside.

Jiang Yao’s roommates had been captured. Jiang Yao could not remain indifferent and hide well. Those girls were also their parents’ favorites, but they were locked up in an unknown place. Which parent would not feel heartache and fear?

Furthermore, they were roommates who had been with Jiang Yao from the beginning. They were not strangers or enemies.

‘To put it bluntly, Yaoyao implicated them in this matter. It’s only right to exchange her for them.” Mrs. Jiang sighed and put down her spoon. The bowl before her was as if it had never been touched.

Mrs. Jiang was kind-hearted and was not the kind of person who was selfish. Therefore, since she discovered that Jiang Yao’s roommates had been captured, she could not sleep or eat in peace. She was terrified that she would hear some bad news. After all, the person who captured Jiang Yao’s roommates was not a good person. Instead, he was a cruel person.

“1t’s just that…” Even if Jiang Yao were not pregnant, Mrs. Jiang would still be worried.

No matter how forgiving she was, Jiang Yao was still her daughter. At the thought of Jiang Yao falling into the hands of someone like that, Mrs. Jiang panicked.

“I’ll go with her,” Lu Xingzhi said. “Mom, I’ll definitely bring her back in one piece.”

After gulping the remaining rice in the bowl, Lu Xingzhi called Liang Yueze to arrange for Jiang Yao to come home. It was as if they had a telepathic connection. On the second day after Lu Xingzhi, Liang Yueze, and the others arranged for Jiang Yao to call Lu Xingzhi, the first thing she said was that she wanted to go home..
