Twenty minutes later, Jiang Yao left the room and went to the lobby. After waiting for about five minutes, she saw a taxi driving up to the entrance of the hotel and Chen Xuyao disembarking the taxi. He wore a gray T-shirt and a pair of jeans, looking like a freshman in college.
Although she had never had any impression of Chen Xuyao, she recognized the man at a glance. Her instinct told her that he was the guy.
"Hi Jiang Yao," Chen Xuyao greeted after getting the change from the driver.
After a quick glimpse, he felt that Jiang Yao was better looking than on her wedding day. Although she was wearing a red dress as she did on her wedding day, the impression was totally different. She stood there with a warm smile on her face, very lively and energetic, becoming the center of attraction.
"Jiang Yao, why are you staying at the hotel?"
Chen Xuyao had already wanted to ask her this when they were talking on the phone. He finally succumbed to his curiosity and quickly asked, worried that it was because of Qi Xiang's harassment that she couldn't even stay in school now.
"I just took leave, I'm staying here with Xingzhi tonight," Jiang Yao explained with a smile. "Your Brother Lu is here too. He took an overnight trip and just arrived this morning."
"Is he? Did you tell him about Qi Xiang?" Chen Xuyao frowned in confusion. Did she intend to make the matter worse?
Jiang Yao shook her head. "No. I only knew about his visit after I bumped into him at the hospital this morning. He was here for his army duty and he didn't even tell me before he arrived."
Jiang Yao knew what Chen Xuyao was thinking at a quick glance at his expression. She didn't even want him to come, so how was it possible that she summoned Lu Xingzhi all the way from Jindo just for a menial matter like this?
