‘Actually on the other hand, I feel that you and the Chief Instructor might be a more possible couple.’
Yu Bao’er kept this bottled up inside of her since she felt that it wasn’t practical of her to blurt it out loud, considering the circumstances.
After all, she had only seen a few clues, and couldn’t really deduce from those that Gu Qingjiu and the Chief Instructor would become a couple or something.
If she had said it, it might lead Gu Qingjiu to have anticipations towards the Chief Instructor. If he truly was as devoid of desires and cold to the extreme as he appeared, it would become a tragedy then!
If Gu Qingjiu came to know of her thoughts, Gu Qingjiu might laugh for a good while.
“Bao’er, if those people I ran into saw we’re alone, they might come back and settle the scores with us again. We better hurry back to the military camp.”
Gu Qingjiu had brought this serious matter to the surface after they were done chatting and laughing.
She was afraid that they would seek them again.
Yu Bao’er was fearless earlier, but when she thought of how they caught Qingjiu when she was all alone, she felt a little guilty.
And to add to that, Commander Huo and his gang had already left.
Hence, she nodded. “Ok, let’s buy some things then go back.”
Yu Bao’er originally wanted to stay for the night, but after the incident, she could only dismiss the idea.
They walked one round around Mountain Village but fortunately didn’t run into those scoundrels again.
After buying some necessities, Gu Qingjiu and Yu Bao’er quickly returned to the military camp.
They hadn’t been out that long, actually; they spent a morning there and returned in the afternoon.
There was only so much to see in the village.
Even if it had the scale of a small town, it wasn’t much.
When the novelty wore off, they started to feel bored.
“Qingjiu, Qingjiu, I’m going hunting at the back of the mountain with the others later. Are you coming along?”
On the way back, Yu Bao’er received a phone call and then excitedly announced she was going hunting at the back of the mountain.
Gu Qingjiu was a little helpless at hearing that. “You guys go ahead. Be careful or you someone from the military might catch you.”
Having been in the military camp for so long, Gu Qingjiu was familiar with most rules.
She also somewhat knew about the ‘hidden rule’ at the back of the mountain.
“Hai, what is there to be afraid of?”
Yu Bao’er waved her hand dismissively. “Even if the skies collapsed, those old birds would hold it up!”
By old birds, she was referring to those old soldiers she knew.
It was also what new recruits often called old soldiers in the dark?
Of course, they dared not call them that in their faces.
Since Yu Bao’er was bold and feared nothing, there was nothing Gu Qingjiu could do about her.
She found it amazing that she found such a bubbly and outgoing friend like Yu Bao’er in the military.
When they returned to the dormitory, they heard those people who should have been outside resting or seeking entertainment talking inside the dormitory.
“I heard Gu Qingjiu and the Chief Instructor were walking together in the afternoon. Many recruits who went out saw them and brought back this news. Do you guys know about it?”
“I also heard… it seemed like Yu Bao’er and Commander Huo were eating something together…”
“My god. These two people are capable. They even hooked up and chatted with Commander Huo and that Chief Instructor.”
“Spit. What kind of person is the Chief Instructor? The Chief Instructor wouldn’t care to look at someone like Gu Qingjiu, would he? I feel that there must be more than meets the eye. Moreover, there were so many people there. Is Gu Qingjiu so bold?”
The people who spoke the loudest were Feng Meiyun and two others.
The instant she heard this, the infuriated Yu Bao’er rolled up her sleeves and ferociously prepared to barge in and wallop those people.
Gu Qingjiu stroked her chin and murmured softly, “Why is it that every time these people gossip behind our backs, we happen to hear them?”
Yu Bao’er was speechless.
