Chapter 549: Here to Visit Gu Qingjiu
Nian Chusheng waved a hand. “I don’t think so. I’m clear about how they do things over there. The primary focus of this matter is on Chief Instructor He, and not on Gu Qingjiu. Now, we’ll just have to see how the school deals with it. Just like I said, let’s wait and see what happens. We mustn’t interfere!”
Towards the end, he even rapped against the table to emphasize the severity of this matter.
Xiong Xuejian hurriedly promised, “Yes, yes, Commander. I’m clear on this. I’ll assure the Shooting Department members right away.”
Gu Qingjiu and the members of the Shooting Department got along pretty well. If this incident affected her, it might stir up some internal changes in the Shooting Department. As the direct instructor of the Shooting Department, Xiong Xuejian had to take up the responsibility of reassuring them.
After taking a shower, Gu Qingjiu ate her lunch but still didn’t see the Chief Instructor anywhere.
Her phone was in the dormitory, and since Gu Qian and the rest left in a hurry yesterday, none of them brought it along for her.
But for some reason, she felt uneasy.
Her heart kept thumping, kept leaping to her throat.
Qi Yuefeng, who was seated next to her, saw Gu Qingjiu’s expression and immediately knew who she was thinking of. But she deliberately chose not to talk about that. “Why, you’re bored from staying here? Do you want Mom to go out for a walk with you?”
When Gu Qingjiu heard this, it occurred to her that if she went out for a walk, she might see if the Chief Instructor was still around.
Hence, she nodded. “Sure.”
Qi Yuefeng supported her as she walked out in her hospital uniform, but still, she didn’t see the Chief Instructor.
No longer able to hold it in, she directly asked, “Mom, where’s the Chief Instructor and my older brother?”
It was rare for her to ask about her older brother.
Qi Yuefeng said helplessly, “You merely wish to ask about Instructor He, right? I don’t think you care about where your older brother is. But I don’t know either. I just called your brother. He said he finished speaking with Instructor He long ago, and Instructor He was called to go back to the school.”
“Called to go back to the school?”
Gu Qingjiu paused. That mere sentence brought about a sudden sense of uneasiness in her for some reason.
As though something was about to happen.
But she couldn’t return to school yet, so she had no means of finding out what had happened.
Could it play out like her worries—that once her relationship with the Chief Instructor got exposed, he would face severe consequences?
But she had no idea what would happen.
Previously, the Chief Instructor told her it didn’t matter even if they exposed their relationship for he could handle it.
But what if he couldn’t handle it?
Gu Qingjiu suddenly felt afraid.
“Qingjiu, Qingjiu…”
Qi Yuefeng reached out a hand and held Gu Qingjiu’s shoulder. “What’s the matter? If you’re worried, then just call him and ask?”
“I fear the Chief Instructor might meet with the higher-ups right now. What if I call and he doesn’t pick up?”
Gu Qingjiu sounded abnormally aggrieved when she said this.
When Qi Yuefeng heard this, her heart clenched as well.
“It’s okay.”
Qi Yuefeng stroked Gu Qingjiu’s head. “You’re not feeling well right now. You ought to focus on recuperating first. Surely he will tell you if anything happens?”
That was true.
Despite that, she couldn’t help feeling uneasy.
And it even lasted until the afternoon, when the Shooting Department members came to visit Gu Qingjiu together.
Upon seeing them, Gu Qingjiu felt better.
“Qingjiu, Qingjiu, are you feeling better?”
Lu Yixin came to visit her with the other members of the Shooting Department and also brought along fruits and flowers.
Gu Qingjiu thought the scene looked a little exaggerated.
