Chapter 374: 373, what are you doing in the US? Hurry back!

The next day, Tang Xiaohua called Lu Xiaoer, but she was off all the time.

She left a message for Lu Xiaoer on social media, but it wasn’t until evening that she got a reply from Lu Xiaoer.

Xiaoer sent a video directly, by which time Tang Xiaohua was already lying in bed, and Wen Nian hadn’t returned yet.

She answered the video call, quite surprised at Lu Xiaoer’s attire and the environment she was in,

"Where are you?"

At that moment, Lu Xiaoer was holding a bowl of freshly soaked instant noodles, with her phone placed on a tall table while she stood wearing a dirty white lab coat, her hair simply tied up behind her head,

"Are you really going through with the wedding to Wen Nian?"

"Skinny..."

She asked while eating her noodles.

Tang Xiaohua pursed her lips, "Actually... I have some doubts."

"Doubts about what? Didn’t you tell me in the message that it’s on the twenty-first? Isn’t that the day after tomorrow?"

"... Yeah, it’s the day after tomorrow."

Tang Xiaohua responded.

"What are you doubtful about? Is he forcing you?"

"It’s just that... I feel like it’s kind of a bargain for him..."

"Pfft... You’re just secretly pleased, aren’t you?" Lu Xiaoer saw right through her, laughing.

"Anyway, where exactly are you? The people around you... they seem to be speaking a language that’s not from Country G. You’re not... out of the country, are you?"

"Bingo!"

Lu Xiaoer, with her cheeks puffed out and a mouthful of instant noodles, had a grin on her dust-covered face.

Tang Xiaohua listened carefully to the background noise on the other end of the video, it sounded so much like...

Her heart skipped a beat!

"Did you run off to Country M?!"

She was so shocked that she sat up straight!

"What kind of reaction is that? Didn’t I tell you half a month ago that I joined an international relief organization..."

"When?"

Tang Xiaohua was completely unaware, "Weren’t you supposed to be staying with Zhongli Wuzhi? Could Uncle Lu even kick you out of Zhongli’s place?"

"Haha! It’s not that bad," Lu Xiaoer laughed. "But the old man has his ways, went directly to the intern hospital."

She shrugged her shoulders, rather helplessly,

"How could the intern hospital dare to keep a troublemaker like me? And at that time, there just happened to be an international relief organization recruiting, so I signed up. I remember I told you about it."

Tang Xiaohua shook her head earnestly,

"Really, you didn’t."

It had been two solid months since they’d last had much contact; Lu Xiaoer was much busier than she was.

"Oh, all right, maybe I remembered wrong."

Lu Xiaoer scratched her head.

"Country M is not safe, Xiaoer, come back soon. It’s best if you take the flight back tonight."

"The way you put it, as if there’s absolute safety in a relief organization?"

Lu Xiaoer was unconcerned.

"The situation in Country M is so unstable right now; the rebel army and the government army could erupt into a large-scale war at any moment! Xiaoer, I’m not trying to scare you, but these few days! A civil war is bound to break out! Modern warfare, missiles flying everywhere, you’ve never been caught in a real war, that’s why you’re all smiles like this!"

"Xiao Li, don’t worry too much, the relief organization has its rules and regulations, including experience for handling the dangers of war—which I may not have, but the organization does."

"..."

"If it really happens like you said, and a civil war breaks out, then I have even more reason to stay."

"Do you want to die over there!"

Tang Xiaohua was getting irritated, how could this girl be so fearless?

"It’s not that serious; besides, I’ve volunteered more than once or twice. Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of myself."

"Lu Xiaoer, you’re really just fooling around!"

"If I come back now, wouldn’t that be exactly what the old man wants?" Xiaoer complained, fed up with Lu Xiaoer’s recklessness. Was this really the time to be acting out of spite?

Once the situation exploded, foreign countries couldn’t even step foot in M country. If they got involved, the scale of the war would expand significantly. After such a hard-earned peace in the world, no nation wanted to hastily trigger a war!

With the outbreak of civil war in M country, the local citizens didn’t even register on the rebel army’s radar; each battle’s casualties were countless!

Even the embassy wasn’t necessarily safe.

Remember, the most sensational news at the time was the rebel army firing three missiles and leveling the G country’s embassy!

All because they hid an important leader of the government army in the embassy!

International aid organizations? In the eyes of the rebel army, there was only uprising.

"So... you’re not planning to be my bridesmaid anymore?"

Tang Xiaohua shifted the conversation, "If you don’t serve as my bridesmaid, I’ll be a bride with no bridesmaids."

"Uh..."

Lu Xiaoer pondered, pretending to be thinking, "That does sound quite pitiful... The President’s wife without a bridesmaid, haha..."

"You’re laughing!"

Tang Xiaohua glared at her.

"Alright, alright, the wedding on the 21st, huh? I promise I’ll be there on time! Are you reassured now?"

"Okay, come back tonight. I still want to discuss the wedding details with you," Tang Xiaohua continued, enticing her.

"Tonight? Let me check the flights... uh... there are no tickets left for tonight, nor for the 19th... oh, there are a few left for the night of the 20th at eleven!"

Lu Xiaoer read it out and quickly placed an order. When she checked again, the tickets were already sold out.

"The ticket is booked, don’t worry, I will see you off at your wedding!" Lu Xiaoer said to Tang Xiaohua with a victorious grin.

"That’s more like it."

Yet Tang Xiaohua couldn’t fully relax; she wished Xiaoer would return tonight!

"Seeing how quickly the tickets sold out, the situation in M country must be really tense... ah, with war breaking out, the innocent civilians of M country will suffer."

Lu Xiaoer sighed softly, then took a big gulp of noodle soup.

"By the way... are you nervous at all? You’re about to become the President’s wife. What does it feel like now?"

She asked softly, keeping her voice down.

"I’m not satisfied."

Tang Xiaohua replied, her tone half-joking, half-serious.

"What? Not content with becoming the President’s wife?"

"I’m not keen on it..."

She murmured softly.

Lu Xiaoer gave her a thumbs up, "Some people rack their brains for such a position, while others easily get it and still don’t cherish it. Is this world fair?"

"Quit joking about me. You need to be extra careful these next few days. If you find a ticket that comes back earlier, take it."

Thankfully, there were still a dozen or so days before the outbreak of the civil war.

She remembered that a nationwide lockdown in M country would occur only after the full escalation.

Before that, it was all just the calm before the storm.

"Alright. The signal here is pretty bad, so I’ll turn off the video now."

"Okay."

Lu Xiaoer ended the video call, and just then Wen Nian came back, instinctively leaning in for a kiss as soon as he walked in.

"Don’t be childish... mmm!"

He insisted on the kiss before he felt comfortable enough to head to the bathroom for a shower.

Tang Xiaohua yawned and lay down. When Wen Nian got into bed, he wrapped his arms around her, his hand gently rubbing her belly,

"I’m so sleepy, stop fiddling around..."

"Lili, I’m nervous..."

"...?"
