Lu Xingzhi snorted at Jiang Yao's remark without saying a word.
Jiang Yao looked askance at Lu Xingzhi and frowned. Meanwhile, Lu Xingzhi turned his back on her and flipped through the books she had placed on her desk with a contented smile on his face. Some of the books were the masterpieces and some were the in-class tutor books her brother had brought to her from the town bookstore.
Lu Xingzhi was a man with a very masculine and gallant figure. Perhaps because of his profession, he stood upright and sturdy like a soldier even if he was just standing and flipping through the books casually.
Jiang Yao stood behind him, staring at his back in a daze. All she thought about in her mind was him.
Jiang Yao heard from Mrs. Lu that Lu Xingzhi had been an excellent student throughout his academic life. After the college entrance examination, he was successfully accepted by the Jindo Military Academy as he had wanted and subsequently, his favorite program. After graduation, he went to join the military and become an official National Guard.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Lu said that Lu Xingzhi had been an independent and assertive person since young. He was so magnificent and had such a wonderful family background. Jiang Yao wondered why he had fallen for her. What did he see in her?
This man, who was such a charmerwhy would he draw and redraw his limits to accommodate her? Eventually, he followed her to stay in the remote mountainous village.
He was a man who could lead a proud and noble life, yet he gave it all up just for her.
Lu Xingzhi flipped through Jiang Yao's books. Her answers were written crammed in between the spaces, which were all correct without exception. As he had always expected, she was outstanding academically.
Her handwriting was neat and immaculate. Although the pages were full of handwritten words, not only it was legible, but it was also rather pleasing to the eye. She was probably the kind of student the teachers liked most, smart and clean.
