Lu Lingxiao deliberately changed the subject and said, "By the way, I've been meaning to ask you, weren't you supposed to return to China three years ago? Why did you suddenly postpone it until now?"
Lu Yingying had just returned to China a little over a month ago.
"I did plan to return, but life abroad turned out to be incredibly dull. However, my advisor started a new research topic that was exactly in my area of interest, so I decided to stay and continue my studies. See, I can say I've come back with my education complete, not letting you all down," she said.
Lu Lingxiao laughed.
"Any interesting stories to tell me?" Lu Lingxiao asked with a hint of indulgence in his voice.
"Yep," Lu Yingying replied, pulling her chair even closer to Lu Lingxiao and continued, "Right, brother, do you remember I had a classmate? She's also Chinese, named Zhu Yan."
Lu Lingxiao had some recollection.
