Chapter 565: Why Not?

Lu Yuqing felt fortunate that Jiang Yao was not the kind of person who would lose herself for money. What if she took everything Lu Xingzhi had and ran away? There was nothing he could do.

She could only thank the stars that her silly little brother was prudent enough to have ended up with a lovely wife.

“As long as you are happy.” Lu Xingzhi chuckled. “Money is nothing but an external possession; you are still the most important in my heart.”

It was the sweetest thing Jiang Yao had ever heard, butterflies fluttered in her heart.

In Lu Xingzhi’s world, Jiang Yao was his everything, the center of his universe.

“Aren’t you afraid that I would take all your money and leave?” Jiang Yao asked probingly. “There must be a lot of money! If I escape abroad, there’s nothing you can do.”

As a soldier, he could not leave the country whenever he wanted.

“As long as I desire, there is not a place I won’t be able to go. If I want to look for you, wherever in the world you may be, I will find you.” Lu Xingzhi chuckled. Restrictions applied to ordinary people, he was not one.

“However, if you really do run away with all my money, I may not come looking for you.” Lu Xingzhi said suddenly.

“Why not? Am I not worth it?” Jiang Yao asked.

“Of course you are!” Lu Xingzhi smiled. “I know you will come back to me anyway. Just because you love me, just because there is no one else in the entire world who will treat you the same way I do. Once you have spent all the money, you will return.”

“Lu Xingzhi.” Jiang Yao furtively glanced at the two bystanders looking at her mockingly. “If I do that, won’t you get angry? If I really come back after spending all of your money, why will you still want me?”

Jiang Yao was doubtful. If she were in his shoes, she would never forgive him.

“Of course I do! Why not?” Lu Xingzhi answered seriously. “Although, when you do come back, I’ll have to lock you up at home, just in case you go running away again.”

Money was never the most important thing for Lu Xingzhi; it did not matter if he was rich or poor. If Jiang Yao did leave with all his money, he would feel sad not because of how poor he had become, but at the fact that Jiang Yao left him.

The assumption would never come true, though. He knew for sure that his wife would never do such a thing.

Furthermore, she loved him and could never bear to be separated from him.

This was why Lu Xingzhi could discuss the matter with Jiang Yao. The probability of it happening was a big fat zero, knowing that, Lu Xingzhi was able to speak rationally, which in turn gave him the upper hand.

“You’re just …” Jiang Yao pouted but could not come up with a reply.

After holding it in briefly, Jiang Yao broke out into a gentle laugh. “Just as you say, I will never do it. After all, I still have to work and look after my kids. Didn’t you want me to give birth to a company of children? If we don’t start earning more now, we may not have enough to support the kids later.”

On the other end of the line, Lu Xingzhi’s lips curled upward into a smile.

It was nothing but a joke, yet Jiang Yao remembered it.
