696 Beyond Everyone’s Expectations
Lu Jin’s status was obviously not low. He had an aura of iron and blood on him, which left a clear impression on her. After not seeing him for a while, the bloodthirsty and murderous aura that Lu Jin exuded from his experience of being in a hail of bullets had lessened by a lot. However, he hadn’t changed his cold and stern style from the military. Shen Hanxing was able to guess Lu Jin’s identity because she had seen the Lu Jin a few months ago, but how did Ji Ning know?
“It’s not that obvious.” Ji Ning first nodded, then shook her head, and then lowered her head in embarrassment. “The uncles who saved me were from the army. They were just like Mr. Lu Jin, upright and honest. I have an impression of them, so I guessed that… Also, our third brother, Ji Yang, is also like Mr. Lu Jin… When he walks, he seems to have measured his steps.” She couldn’t tell what was different about these people who had served in the military from ordinary people, but she could at least tell that Ji Yang, who had gone to the military school, was gradually exuding this aura, and this aura was even more obvious on Lu Jin.
After Ji Ning had been kidnapped, she had been able to safely leave the small mountain village because she of the army. Ever since she had been rescued, she had been very grateful to those uncles who had helped her. She would often think of their heroic and valiant looks, and their determined gazes. As a result, she had a particularly good impression of people from the Army, which was why she had been so kind to Lu Jin.
Lu Jin clearly knew about the background of the Ji family, as he quickly understood the meaning behind Ji Ning’s words. His gaze also became much gentler. “Miss Ji Ning is quite observational. You’re very smart,” he said, looking at Ji Ning. Lu Jin wasn’t being polite. He meant what he said. After all, ever since she was brought out of the small mountain village, Ji Ning had grown up alone, but she was able to master the violin, and had even overcome the issue with Lin Ran. Seeing the girl they had saved in the past grow up to this point was the most powerful affirmation for the soldiers’ efforts.!!
Because of Ji Ning’s little action, Lu Jin’s aura visibly softened.
“Mrs. Ji did not seem to be surprised by my arrival?” Lu Jin shifted his gaze to Shen Hanxing. It is true that Shen Hanxing was very young, but her eyes were calm. They were clear but not shallow, steady but not turbid. They were full of tenacity but didn’t appear arrogant. Her eyes made it easy for people to ignore her age and even her overly beautiful face. She had grown up to become completely different from her childhood environment. She was elegant and generous. Just sitting there, she was a beautiful scene, charming but dangerous at the same time.
“I have a rough idea.” Shen Hanxing’s lips curled into a smile as she calmly picked up the cup in her hand. “We’ll still need Mr. Lu Jin’s help to confirm it.” Although she said that, Shen Hanxing did not seem to be in a hurry. She was not in a rush to ask him either, as if she already had the answer. She still remembered Ji Yan saying that he would give her what she wanted. Connecting that to the scene when she first met Lu Jin, she could guess his purpose for coming.
Lu Jin’s eyes rippled slightly as he looked at Shen Hanxing quietly for a while. A faint smile appeared on his lips. “It seems that Mrs. Ji is already mentally prepared.” He took a sip of the hot tea but did not continue the topic. Instead, he asked, “The results of the college entrance examination are coming out soon. Has Mrs. Ji decided which major you intend to study?”
Shen Hanxing paused and asked with a smile, “Will the answer to this question affect your decision, Mr. Lu Jin?”
“Of course not,” Lu Jin smiled, but it was a small smile. “Mrs. Ji’s request isn’t something I can decide on my own. I’m just casually asking. If it’s not convenient, you don’t have to answer.” Even though he said that, his eyes were fixed on Shen Hanxing, as if he wanted to know the answer.
“I do have an idea.” Shen Hanxing was silent for a moment before she smiled and said, “But for now, I want to remain mysterious.”
“Your major seems to be an unexpected choice then.” Lu Jin shook his head and rubbed the edge of the teacup with his fingers. He muttered, “Professor Xu Jinhe has always hoped that Mrs. Ji could study under him. It seems that he is destined to be disappointed.”
She had to admit that Lu Jin was really sharp. From her vague words, he could tell that the major she wanted to apply for was probably beyond everyone’s imagination. Shen Hanxing didn’t mind Lu Jin’s guesses and probing. She shrugged and said, “I’m sorry for Professor Xu Jinhe’s appreciation of me.”
