Chapter 1016: Why Don’t I Give It A Try?
Jiang Yao choked and said that she could not win against Lu Xingzhi. She could only raise her hand and pinch his arm to vent her anger. She had thrown a rock at her own foot. She should have said that in the past!
Lu Xingzhi, who was pinched, did not get angry. Instead, he laughed. After the car stopped at the police station, he lowered his head and kissed Jiang Yao on the lips before getting out of the vehicle in satisfaction.
The people at the police station knew Lu Xingzhi, so he only needed to say a few words to explain the matter. Then, he left the child and all the things Jiang Yao had bought for the child at the police station. He only brought Jiang Yao back to the army after that.
After they went through so much trouble, it was already very late when they reached home. After he boiled the water, Lu Xingzhi let Jiang Yao take a bath. While she did that, he retrieved Moe, who was hidden in Jiang Yao’s coat pocket.
Moe was asleep, but he was very alert. Lu Xingzhi’s hand had only reached the edge of the pocket when he woke up. However, he could not withstand Lu Xingzhi’s quick action, so he did not have time to escape. Lu Xingzhi had already grabbed him by the neck and carried him to the balcony.
There was no heating on the balcony, and Lu Xingzhi carried Moe in the air. The wind upstairs was much colder than the wind downstairs. Of course, Moe had fur, so the cold would not kill him. However, he was afraid of what was at the bottom.
Lu Xingzhi had carried him in the air. If he were to let go, then he would fall to the ground and turn into a pile of meat paste!
Moe struggled with all of his might; his four limbs held Lu Xingzhi’s hand tightly as he meowed.
Lu Xingzhi was unmoved as he observed Moe’s movements. “People said that cats have nine lives. I wonder if you are the same.”
Moe was furious. What nine lives? He only had one precious cat life!
“Stop pretending. I know you can understand human language. You don’t know what this thing is. You might not die if you fall from such a height.” Lu Xingzhi scoffed. “Why don’t I try it?”
Moe was so scared that he shook his head. Unfortunately, that was not the second or the third floor. If he could not grab anything before he fell, he would turn into a dead Moe!
At that moment, Moe missed Jiang Yao very much. It was only at that moment that he finally realized how gentle Jiang Yao was in the past.
Lu Xingzhi saw that Moe was still hugging his hand without any other reaction. So Lu Xingzhi said, “To prevent you from escaping, I used a special rope to tie you up. The rope is longer than the height of the floor so that it won’t affect your fall.”
Crazy!
Moe bared his teeth at Lu Xingzhi. “You’re too crazy! I’m going to tell Jiang Yao! You’re abusing me!”
No matter what Moe said, Lu Xingzhi could only hear the meows. Lu Xingzhi did not know that Moe had scolded him.
“So you really do understand human language.” Lu Xingzhi shook his wrist deliberately as if he was going to let go, but he did not expect that such a feint would bring him a great shock.
Suddenly, the cat’s claws that held his hand tightly had become bigger. The sharp claws cut through the back of his hand, instantly pierced the balcony’s outer wall, and went straight into the wall.
The sharp claws were so big that they could easily surround the entire room to form a protective armor. Lu Xingzhi was shocked. He let go of his hand and took a step backward. Then, he looked at the entire body that used the sharp claws to support itself as it hung on the wall.
At that moment, Jiang Yao walked out to the balcony. When she saw that Lu Xingzhi was also there, she asked, “Why are you alone on the balcony? Did you smoke when I wasn’t paying attention?”
