The Demon

Lu Xingzhi felt a pang of remorse, annoyed at his ineptitude to provide for Jiang Yao. She came all the way to visit him and yet, he barely spent time with her.

"When are you going back to school?" Lu Xingzhi suddenly asked.

"It's supposed to be tomorrow, but I am calling Xuehui and asking for her help in requesting a two-month break for me. I will return to school when you go back to the platoon."

"That's almost time for your winter break. Why don't you just stay until the end of the winter break?" Lu Xingzhi's little plan was marvelous. Now, Jiang Yao had to spend more time with him. Perhaps the university might expel her on the grounds of prolonged absence, the perfect excuse for Jiang Yao to study in Jindo Medical University instead.

"I still have to sit for the exam before the break starts." Jiang Yao shook her head.
