NovelEnglishHe took out a map and found Ying County of Province C. His eyes wandered around until they stopped at Nanjiang City.
In a week, he would be closer to Jiang Yao than he was now. Would there be time for him to make a detour to Nanjiang City after the selection?

Lu Xingzhi looked at the time, Jiang Yao was still in class. He went out to the training ground and waited until after lunch when he was back at his office to dial Jiang Yao’s number.
He knew she scheduled classes in the morning, with some of them ending by noon. It was already a little over one, she should be back at her apartment.
When Jiang Yao’s cell phone rang, she was busy answering Wen Xuehui’s question. Wen Xuehui was worried about Jiang Yao’s academic status and prepared a few questions to test her knowledge. Jiang Yao was on the fifth question when her phone rang. She took a glimpse at the caller’s name and immediately went out to the bathroom by the balcony to pick up the call.
“Let me guess, it’s her husband,” remarked Zhou Xiaoxia. “Do you think Jiang Yao’s a genius? She was able to answer all of Xuehui’s questions without any difficulties.”
Wen Xuehui nodded absent-mindedly. As a hardworking student who was also in the same specialization as Jiang Yao, she knew that Jiang Yao answered everything correctly.

Plus, she’s at the hospital, she could always ask the doctors if she had any trouble with the materials.” Li Yi shrugged. “Don’t forget that her entrance results were much better than ours. Apparently, her high school diploma results were more than enough to enter Jindo Medical University.”
“Good looks, high intelligence, and a loving husband, what more can Jiang Yao ask for? Her life is complete.” Chen Siyang exclaimed enviously. “Compared to us, she’s on a totally different level.”
“That’s right. My mum is very happy that I’m studying for a degree in a university, but by the time I’m done with school, I’d be twenty-two years old. Back at my hometown, women my age would’ve been a mother for some years already. My parents are worried that I won’t be able to look for a good husband even though I’m highly educated. They wanted me to socialize more with the guys while at school.”
Even though it might sound inappropriate, these were Lin Qiaoyu and Li Yi’s parents’ genuine thoughts.
It was not easy putting their child through university and they would not want their daughters to return home after graduating. It was better for them to find a good husband and stay in an urban area like Nanjiang City.
Jiang Yao was not aware of the discussion that went on in the apartment while she was away. Even though it was only a day since they had talked, Jiang Yao was still delighted to receive Lu Xingzhi’s phone call.
