Chapter 370: Partner
Although he bore hatred in his heart, he didn’t dare to create more trouble for Gu Qingjiu.
After he had cast a few more glances at her, he then looked away with hatred brewing in his heart.
Gu Qingjiu naturally noticed Qin Huai’s gaze. She scoffed inwardly, though she appeared calm and unaffected on the surface.
Many students in the class were curious about Gu Qingjiu.
They all knew about the incident where Qin Huai implemented a punishment upon Gu Qingjiu.
But since Gu Qingjiu didn’t leave the school, that showed that Gu Qingjiu had hit the requirements Qin Huai asked of her.
Moreover, lately, they had heard that this newly transferred student was in fact a genius at shooting.
It wasn’t hard to see that Qin Huai, who was usually extremely fierce, must have run into a difficulty with Gu Qingjiu.
How could one not secretly laugh in their heart?
“Hello everyone, this is the beginning of a new week. Without further ado, let’s continue with our training from last week.”
The instructor in charge of Class C was a fair and tender young lad, the kind who looked like he led a blessed life.
His name was Zhen Huan.
He was referring to combat training, which Gu Qingjiu hadn’t practiced in a long time.
She had been busy with her shooting practice hence, she naturally fell behind on other aspects of her training.
But then again, some of these students had gotten in through tests. As for Gu Qingjiu, at least she had trained in the troops for half a year, so she didn’t fall behind by much.
There were even some aspects in which she was superior to the rest.
Unlike the combat lessons in the troops, the combat lessons here placed a focus on combating alongside a partner.
Every person would have a fixed partner; this partner would both be one’s teammate, as well as the opponent.
In the combat lessons in the future, this partner would also be the person one linked up with.
Since Gu Qingjiu was new in class, she didn’t have a partner.
Moreover, there wasn’t anyone who was available to be partners with Gu Qingjiu.
Finally, Instructor Zhen Huan called over someone from another class to be Gu Qingjiu’s partner.
It was a girl from Class A.
Gu Qingjiu noticed that when the instructor called that girl over, the classmates around them were secretly gloating over this.
The specialization classes weren’t allocated according to their results, but randomly.
Hence, Gu Qingjiu was distributed to Class C when she first came.
This girl in Class A was called Feng Yumeng. When the instructor brought her over, she wore a shy and demure smile on her face.
She had a round face and ordinary looks that couldn’t be considered pretty, and she gave off a pure disposition.
She seemed like a gentle girl.
Those around them didn’t show a nice expression when looking at Feng Yumeng. They were restraining themselves from laughing.
Rather quickly, Gu Qingjiu understood the reason behind such a reaction.
“Gu Qingjiu.”
Instructor Zhen Huan walked over and looked at Gu Qingjiu in a somewhat embarrassed manner. “There’s no one left to partner with you in our class. Feng Yumeng is from Class A and she happens to lack a partner too. Is it okay if she partners with you?”
The instructor asked in an inquiring tone, which was quite rare for him.
Gu Qingjiu knew that Feng Yumeng was perhaps partnerless because no one was willing to partner up with her.
Although she didn’t know the reason behind that when she saw the girl’s shy smile and after hearing the instructor’s words, her smile faded a little.
She felt something stir in her heart. Gu Qingjiu nodded and said, “I’ll follow your arrangements, Instructor.”
Seeing that she replied in a serious manner and didn’t appear resistant to the idea, Zhen Huan felt relieved.
“Feng Yumeng didn’t perform very well in the combat class, and you have exceptional talent in the shooting. Just nice, you two can complement each other and average each other out. I hope you don’t mind.”
