After sending the message, Lu Li casually asked, "Did you retire from the Marine Corps?"
He remembered that the lady mayor had once mentioned, seemingly trusting this armed force a lot.
Aurora shrugged and said, "Got a few steel plates in my body, can't stay in the army anymore. Speaking of which, where's your guarantor?"
Before she could finish, Lu Li's phone rang, and it was from his headteacher.
He walked aside to answer, and Aurora listened intently:
"Teacher, I have a personal matter, could you give me her number?"
…
"Okay, once everything is settled, I'll return to school as soon as possible."
…
The more Aurora listened, the stranger her expression became—was he still in school? Was his guarantor a classmate?
At that moment, Aurora began to doubt her earlier judgment…
Meanwhile, Lu Li came back and dialed the phone number Teresa, his classmate, that the headteacher had sent him.
The call was quickly answered, and the voice sounded somewhat surprised, "Lu Li?"
