Can't Take My Eyes Off You (WN)
chapter-1450

“Colonel Lin, you just woke up. Don’t get too emotional. Don’t talk too much; rest more. I just came by to see you. I’m relieved to see that you’re awake and well.” Colonel Lin nearly died, and he looked like it. Even after Colonel Lin recovered from his injuries, it would be difficult for him to go on another mission.

Jiang Yao had told Colonel Lin not to get emotional because she wanted him to forget about Sergeant Ge. Just like Lu Xingzhi, Sergeant Ge’s identity as Mr. G was like a big slap in Colonel Lin’s face.

Even though it hurt, there was no physical damage.

“Colonel Lin, please rest. I will take Jiang Yao back to the ward. The doctor also told her to walk around. However, Jiang Yao heard that you were awake and insisted on coming over to see you,” Zhou Weiqi said. Then, he took a step back and prepared to take Jiang Yao back.

Just as the two of them walked to the door, Jiang Yao met two familiar figures—Professor Ouyang and Mr. Ouyang.

Mr. Ouyang was Jiang Yao’s informant in Xiang City. Jiang Yao’s eyes flashed with surprise when she saw them together and remembered their surnames.

“Professor! Mr. Ouyang!” Jiang Yao greeted the two of them. “You were the one who saved Colonel Lin, right, Professor?”

Professor Ouyang knew that Jiang Yao was also hospitalized, so he did not find it strange to see Jiang Yao there.

However, Ouyang was surprised when he heard Jiang Yao greet his father.

“You know each other? You’re my father’s student?” Ouyang asked, surprised. Then, he asked about Jiang Yao’s health.

“Yes, it’s such a coincidence. Professor Ouyang is my teacher.” Jiang Yao smiled. As she spoke, she noticed Lu Xingzhi, who was standing behind Ouyang. Her eyes lit up slightly, and she raised her hand and waved at Lu Xingzhi. Her voice was clear. “Xingzhi! Why are you here?”

Ouyang was familiar with Jiang Yao’s tone. She was gentle whenever she spoke to her husband.

Out of curiosity and scrutiny toward his love rival, Ouyang turned around and looked at the man behind him.

He was a little surprised. The man behind him was even taller than he was. He was in a green military uniform and had an imposing aura.

He was a soldier.

“Go back and rest.”

Lu Xingzhi took Zhou Weiqi’s place and pushed Jiang Yao back to the ward. Although he did not know Mr. Ouyang, he knew Professor Ouyang. Lu Xingzhi nodded slightly at him as a form of greeting.

When he returned to the ward, Lu Xingzhi did not wait for Jiang Yao to stand up. He bent down, carried her to the bed, and covered her with the quilt.

Lu Xingzhi said, “Don’t run around in the next few days.” Then, he took an apple from the cabinet, washed it, and gave it to Jiang Yao.

“I was just checking on Colonel Lin,” Jiang Yao said.

If Lu Xingzhi were not there, she was going to check on Zhou Junmin and the pilot.

“They’ll discharge me in two days.”

Lu Xingzhi frowned. “You need to rest now.”

Just as he said that, there was a knock on the door. Lu Xingzhi did not close the door when he came in, so he turned around and saw the person knocking on the door.

“Get out!”

It was Ouyang.

However, Ouyang had walked into the room before he heard what Lu Xingzhi said.
