Chapter 122: Chapter 122: A Short Parting is Better Than a New Marriage
Lu Xingzhi had memorized Huo Jincheng’s phone number early on and quickly dialed it.
It took a long time on the other end before the call connected.
"Hello."
"Uncle, it’s me. Our instructor, the chief instructor, wants to talk to you. He wants you to persuade me to go to military school." Without waiting for Huo Jincheng on the other end to process, Lu Xingzhi directly handed the phone to Li Chengqian.
"Hello, I’m Li Chengqian. You must be Lu Xingzhi’s fiancé!"
Just as Huo Jincheng softened his demeanor and was about to inquire about Lu Xingzhi and speak a few more words, the voice on the other end switched to a man’s.
Moreover, they wanted Lu Xingzhi to go to military school. It was impossible for him not to feel angry; even through the screen, one could sense his intimidating aura, "What is your military rank?"
Li Chengqian, instinctively facing what seemed like a commanding officer, replied, "Lieutenant Colonel."
Huo Jincheng directly refused, "I understand your intent, but I disagree and won’t persuade her. Let me introduce myself; I’m Huo Jincheng, Lu Xingzhi’s fiancé."
"The name Huo Jincheng sounds so familiar. Damn! Could you be my boss’s brother? My boss is Huo Jintong." Li Chengqian swallowed hard; if he really was Huo Jintong’s brother, then this was...
"Congratulations, you guessed right. Do you need me to tell my big brother about this?" There was a hint of threat in Huo Jincheng’s tone.
"Oh dear! I just remembered, after the end of military training today, I have a lot to handle. Lu Xingzhi is indeed not suited for the military, so let’s just leave it at that. You must be busy!" With that, Li Chengqian unilaterally hung up the call.
On the other end, Huo Jincheng, who still wanted to say a few words to Lu Xingzhi: "..."
Fine!
"Well, Instructor Li, I’ll head back now?" Lu Xingzhi overheard their conversation and said.
Li Chengqian looked at Lu Xingzhi with mixed emotions, "Oh well! It’s a pity."
But thankfully!
In the afternoon, students returning from base training gradually returned to school.
Only then did Lu Xingzhi turn on her phone and call Huo Jincheng again.
"Zhi Zhi, back to school already?" Huo Jincheng felt quite happy seeing Lu Xingzhi’s call.
"Yes, just arrived."
Huo Jincheng said, "I’ll pick you up and bring you home."
"No need, you’re not off work yet! I can just take a cab home myself." Lu Xingzhi checked the time; it was just three in the afternoon!
"No worries, I’m not busy today. It’s on my way too."
"Really?" Lu Xingzhi had never been to Huo Jincheng’s company and didn’t know where exactly it was.
But Jing University’s location was a bit off the beaten path!
Huo Jincheng’s lips curled up, "Really. You can rest for a while; I’ll call you when I arrive."
"Alright then!" Lu Xingzhi didn’t refuse.
"Finally, the military training is over; let’s go shopping! Let’s also eat out. I miss meat so much, it’s been ages since I’ve had a feast." Ke Yanchu felt like a bird freed from a cage, everything seemed wonderful now.
"I agree, how about we go for barbecue?" Xiong Yali chimed in.
"Or, maybe we should have something lighter first?" Liu Bailu said hesitantly.
"I won’t join; I’m heading back later." Lu Xingzhi said.
"Ah! Little Zhi Liao, I wanted to treat you to dinner! But, absence makes the heart fonder; you should go see your uncle first." fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
