"It's okay, Brother Zhong, there's no need for lunch. I still need to catch a flight back to the platoon." As Lu Xingzhi was talking, he waved to Jiang Yao who was waiting at the side quietly and very patiently before saying, "Darling, come here. Let me introduce him to you,"
Only then did Wu Zhong realize that there was a person a few steps beside him. He did not know how long that lady had stood there but she seemed very obedient, walking over slowly only when Lu Xingzhi asked her to.
"Brother Zhong, let me introduce my wife to you. Her name is Jiang Yao, she is studying at Nanjiang Medical University and she is in her first year." Lu Xingzhi paused for a while and continued. "My wife and I got married last year. It has been almost a year but it's a pity that we did not have the time to send Brother Zhong our wedding candy. Since I still have some time in Nanjiang City, I brought her here to get to know you."
Lu Xingzhi was very respectful toward Brother Zhong. Although his position in the platoon had been higher than Wu Zhong previously, Wu Zhong had joined the army earlier than him and he was older than him, thus, Lu Xingzhi had always been respectful toward Wu Zhong.
"It's my pleasure to meet you, Brother Zhong!" Jiang Yao greeted him. Lu Xingzhi had already greeted him as Brother Zhong, so she certainly wouldn't wait for him to greet her first.
"It's my pleasure to meet you too!" The corner's of Wu Zhong's eyes creased as he smiled, overjoyed.
He was happy for Lu Xingzhi because the latter had gotten married to an obedient and smart wife, and also because he still remembered his old partner until now.
