“You’re only a few minutes older than me, and that young lady looks even younger than me.” Luo Xikui snorted, raising her eyes to look at her brother.
Upon closer reflection, Xiang Hengxi realized that she was indeed a year younger than Luo Xikui, and would only turn twenty-one after the new year.
"Who exactly is she?" Luo Xikui was incredibly curious. Her brother had always seemed uninterested in women since childhood. But his lack of interest wasn't like Xu Ziyu's, who didn't care about any other women except her.
She felt that all women looked the same to him, whether they were ugly or beautiful, there seemed to be no difference. He spent all his time hanging out with a bunch of men, calling them "brother" this and "brother" that. She almost began to suspect that he shared the same sexual orientation as Cheng Ming.
Now, she suddenly noticed a strange difference in his behavior towards a woman, which made her curious about the woman's identity.
“We’re comrades.” Xiang Hengxi put one hand into his pocket.
His nonchalant tone nearly made Luo Xikui's jaw drop. It took her a while to close her mouth, find her voice, and stammer, "She...she's in the army?"
The girl is so petite, she looks much shorter than him. Although her proportions are good, she looks to be at most 1.6 meters tall.
"Is it from the performing arts troupe?" That was the only guess Luo Xikui could make.
Xiang Hengxi shook his head and said, "They are electronic reconnaissance soldiers from the Special Operations Section."
"What kind of military unit is this?" Luo Xikui found it hard to believe that the petite girl was mixed in with a group of grown men.
Xiang Hengxi felt that it would be a long explanation to Luo Xikui, so he said, "In short, it's all about using your brain."
"..." Luo Xikui felt that these words sounded familiar. Why did their family always look for people who could use their brains? Was it because they were looking for someone they lacked?
"Don't meddle in my business. Focus on preparing to be your bride." Xiang Hengxi ruffled the girl's hair, turned around, opened the door, and left.
Luo Xikui realized she still had questions to ask, but then she saw her brother had already gracefully walked away.
She didn't want to press the matter further, so she closed the door, got into bed, and turned on her phone to share the gossip with Xu Ziyu.
“No wonder she looked familiar.” Xu Ziyu thought for a moment and said, “But her eyes were fine before, so I didn’t remember her.”
"You've seen her? On what occasion?" Luo Xikui asked, her curiosity piqued.
"The college entrance exam in my second year of junior high." Xu Ziyu remembered that there was a girl in the exam room who looked like a primary school student. She was probably the youngest examinee, so he remembered her well. Even after seven or eight years, he still hadn't forgotten her.
"..." Luo Xikui had a feeling that she and they didn't live on the same earth.
"It seems she got into Yida University." Xu Ziyu had paid some attention to the results announcement that year.
"..." Luo Xikui felt that if she had taken the college entrance examination through the normal channels, she would at most have gotten into a second-tier university. Sure enough, there are differences between people. Fortunately, she had a special talent and was not completely crushed.
Thanks to her exceptionally long talent!
"You called just to tell me this?" Xu Ziyu wasn't particularly interested in other people's topics.
"Actually, I wanted to ask when you're free." Luo Xikui became a little shy and bashful, fiddling with the corner of the blanket, her eyes lowered in undisguised joy: "When you're free, we'll go pick out wedding dresses."
Xu Ziyu's eyebrows also lit up with joy, and he smiled slightly, "This Saturday then."
"Okay." Luo Xikui pursed her lips and smiled sweetly.
After finishing speaking, reluctantly, he kissed the phone, said goodnight, and then hung up.
