Chapter 540: The Chief Instructor Was the One Who Took Care of Her All Night
“If your school hadn’t called, I wouldn’t have known you had fallen ill. You were still fine when you went back to school the day before!”
Qi Yuefeng walked over with worry written all over her face. “Why did you suddenly fall sick?’
Under such circumstances, the school would notify the student’s parents.
Gu Qingjiu wrote her older brother as an emergency contact, so the school notified Gu Qingmo.
Since Qi Yuefeng was with him, she immediately rushed with him after learning of this.
They still had no idea what the cause was.
“I’m fine. I merely ate something bad…”
It was an accident, and no one could have seen it coming.
Gu Qingjiu didn’t exaggerate things.
“Can eating something bad lead to influenza virus?”
Gu Qingmo threw Gu Qingjiu a displeased look. “Do you know how worried Mom and I were?”
“It’s just the flu, nothing serious,” Gu Qingjiu whispered.
Gu Qingmo immediately poked Gu Qingjiu’s head with a finger. “You’re even talking back, huh?”
“What are you doing? Why are you bullying your sick younger sister?!”
Qi Yuefeng smacked Gu Qingmo, making the latter retract his hand right away.
Gu Qingjiu laughed out loud.
Next to them, Gu Qian and Chu Lian widened their eyes as they stared at Qi Yuefeng and Gu Qingmo.
No wonder Gu Qingjiu was so pretty. It turned out everyone in her family was so good-looking.
Gu Qingmo was a school hunk in his senior high days.
As for Qi Yuefeng, even though she was middle-aged, she maintained herself well. One could tell that she had an excellent disposition and that she exuded a tranquil gentleness.
The family of three was pleasing to the eyes.
Gu Qian and Chu Lian were a tad envious staring at them, for they looked like a blissful family.
The two of them greeted Qi Yuefeng and Gu Qingmo. “Hello, Auntie. Hello, Brother.”
Gu Qingmo and Qi Yuefeng looked towards them. Although they had no idea who they were, they guessed they were Gu Qingjiu’s friends. Qi Yuefeng responded, “Hello, did you take care of Qingjiu the entire night? Aiyoh, I really must thank the two of you.”
Qi Yuefeng grabbed Chu Lian’s hand and started thanking them.
Chu Lian revealed a rare embarrassed look. Gu Qingjiu introduced them. “Mom, these are my dorm mates. There’s one more, but she left with her older brother. My dorm mates sent me here last night.”
“Aiyoh, thank you so much. We can’t take care of Qingjiu while she’s in school. Thankfully, you guys were there to take care of her.”
Qi Yuefeng started thanking them even more profusely now.
“No, no, no,” Chu Lian hurriedly denied.
It puzzled Qi Yuefeng and Gu Qingmo. “No, what?”
“No, we weren’t the ones who took care of Qingjiu the entire night!” Chu Lian clarified.
Gu Qian agreed, “Yes, Auntie, we merely sent Qingjiu to the hospital together with the Commanding Officer. But the one who stayed by Qingjiu’s side the entire night wasn’t us. It was the Chief…”
Before she finished her sentence, Gu Qingjiu interrupted her with a reddened face. “Gu Qian!”
Gu Qian glanced at Gu Qingjiu and fell silent. But Chu Lian followed up, “Auntie, it was our Chief Instructor who took care of her. We don’t dare to claim credit for that!”
They realized if they claimed credit for this, they would offend the Chief Instructor.
They weren’t stupid!
“Who is the Chief Instructor? Oh, oh, it must be an instructor in your school, right? I have to thank him properly…”
Though Qi Yuefeng was confused, behind her, Gu Qingmo broke into instant laughter.
