    After a few rings, someone at the other end of the line finally picked up the call and a hoarse voice


    resonated into her ear. Although the voice was a little distorted through the phone, Jiang Yao could


    recognize the voice in an instant.


    "It''s me! I got the phone!" Jiang Yao screamed ecstatically. "I don''t have to go to the convenience store


    to use the phone anymore!"


    "I know."


    Zhou Weiqi called him five minutes ago to update him, but he could instantly recognize the phone


    number too as he had personally picked the number. Thest four digits of both their phone numbers


    were the same. However, he felt his heart filled with warmth and pleasure when he heard Jiang Yao


    speaking to him in such a happy tone.


    "How are you at school? Is everything okay?"


    From N?velDrama.Org.


    It was Jiang Yao''s first day at college, but Lu Xingzhi had been worried for an entire night. She had


    never traveled far before, thus, he had a lot of concerns for her when she was left alone in an


    unfamiliar ce by herself. He was afraid that she might not get along well with her roommates and


    coursemates, or that she was not used to the food at school. Most importantly, he was worried that the


    immature young dudes would pursue his beautiful and kind wife!


    "Everything is fine, my roommates are very good too," Jiang Yao answered while thinking inside her,


    At least I get along better with them now than in my previous life.''


    Then, she recalled the wedding that Zhou Weiqi had mentioned. She wasn''t sure if Lu Xingzhi didn''t tell


    her earlier because he didn''t want her to go along or if he had simply forgotten. After a moment of


    hesitation, she asked curiously, "Zhou Weiqi said that you would be attending a friend''s wedding on


    National Day, am I right?" She then quickly added, in case Lu Xingzhi thought that she wanted to tag


    along, "He told me that the wedding will be on the 1st. Should I book my ticket for the 2nd, then? I''ll


    visit you in the base on the 2nd."


    Lu Xingzhi''s expression stiffened in a gloomy way when he heard Jiang Yao''s remark. He stood on the


    training field, looking up at the dazzling sun and kicking the grass under his feet irritatingly, and then


    said, "You don''t want to attend my friend''s wedding with me? Why?"


    He was so agitated that he wanted to look for Zhou Weiqi and give him a piece of his mind. What did


    he babble to Jiang Yao?


    Lu Xingzhi had kept the wedding secret because he was concerned that she wasn''t interested to


    mingle with his friends, so when she came to the base as nned, she had to follow him despite her


    Jiang Yao knew that Lu Xingzhi had misunderstood her as soon as she heard his remark spoken in a


    slightly agitated tone. He didn''t forget to tell her about it instead, he didn''t tell her because he was


    afraid that she was going to say no. Both of them were guessing each other''s thoughts but they had


    interpreted them wrongly.


    Hence, Jiang Yao chuckled gently and said, "If you want me to be your plus one, I will! I just thought


    that you didn''t tell me because you thought that I''d bring you shame and embarrassment."


    "Huh!" Lu Xingzhi huffed a rareugh. He looked up at the scorching sun again, but this time, it felt very


    pleasant andfortable. "I''ll take you with me."


    He was so eager and desperate to show everyone in the world that Jiang Yao was his wife!


    "What about my outfit for the wedding?" Jiang Yao asked, "Your friends are rich and powerful, I bet the


    wedding reception must be extraordinary too. Should I wear a dress or something?"


    "Don''t worry about it, I just need you to be here." Lu Xingzhi paused, and continued, "Frankly, they are


    not my friends. Remember to address them properly when youe, the groom is my Big Brother."
