Jiang Yao had been profusely finding a chance to interject the conversation among the adults to ask if Lu Xingzhi had called home. Unfortunately, her attempts came to no avail.
Finally, when Lu Xiaoxiao and Lu Haixing had decided to call it a day and went home, Jiang Yao quickly went up to her father-in-law and asked, "Dad, did Xingzhi call home these few days?"
Should she admit that she'd been waiting for his call for several days?
For the past few days in the county, she had seen Zhao Zhuangzong and the pregnant woman walking together like a regular couple several times. Once, she had even seen them coming out of the hospital together. From the looks of it, it seemed that they were there for a maternity checkup. Zhao Zhuangzong didn't see her because she was standing in a secluded area. She had to stop Lu Xiaoxiao from going forward to greet them.
That slow-witted girl still failed to notice the strangeness of it.
