Chapter 60: Delicateness
The next few days continued in the same manner.
They trained in the morning and in the afternoon. After they were done with their afternoon training, Gu Qingjiu would accompany Yu Bao’er to watch her clean the toilets.
It almost became one of the amazing sights at the camp.
On the fourth day, both Gu Qingjiu and Yu Bao’er’s legs were extremely sore from the highly-intense training. Yu Bao’er heard from one of the older soldiers that they could get free ointment from the infirmary and that it worked quite well for their sore muscles.
Well, at least it would be useful for the soreness new recruits experienced.
This was the experience the older soldiers had.
That was why when she went to clean the toilets this afternoon, she got Gu Qingjiu to go to the infirmary to get the ointment.
At the thought of that person in the infirmary that day, Gu Qingjiu felt a little reluctant to go.
Because she felt as if seeing that person felt like seeing another Su Lingche.
However, with another thought later, if she kept avoiding it, it meant that she still cared for Su Lingche deep in her heart.
What worth does that person have in her for her to still care about him?
Besides, the Doctor wasn’t Su Lingche after all.
After a few days of listening around and with such a hyper person like Yu Bao’er beside her, Gu Qingjiu finally found out the doctor’s name. He was called Nan Yingxuan.
Indeed, he was rather popular in camp. She heard that he was a top student in Capital University and that he trained to be a military doctor in this camp immediately after graduating. They even said that his medical skills were rather good.
Also, because he was handsome, he was the face of the new recruits camp before He Niancheng came.
He was adored by the female soldiers in camp.
Many people from the actual military camp too would rather frequently drop by just to let Nan Yingxuan diagnose them.
At such a time during afternoon, there should be many people at the infirmary. However, when Gu Qingjiu walked over, she could only see a few people. Several people who walked by the infirmary quickly strolled by as if there was some kind of giant monster inside.
This made Gu Qingjiu feel a little uneasy.
However, at the thought that it was something Yu Bao’er had asked her to do, she pushed herself to go forward to take a look.
She was only going to take an ointment and leave. She probably wouldn’t disturb anyone who was inside.
However, by the time Gu Qingjiu arrived at the infirmary door, she instantly understood the reason.
He Niancheng was sitting inside.
His straight back was seated on a chair. He was holding onto a bottle of medicine and was scrutinizing it. His expression was cold as he exuded a coldness that rivaled the winter. No wonder everyone scooted away from the place.
Recently, He Niancheng’s name had spread all over the camp.
Everyone knew that the new Commander He rarely smiled and was very strict. Even if he was handsome, his punishments were practically a torture.
Amongst the new recruits that he had caught for being careless and not taking everything seriously, nine out of every ten had left camp already.
Instantly, the nickname of him being a ‘Living Satan’ had spread in the entire camp.
Who would dare come and disturb such a person?
Gu Qingjiu’s legs instantly froze as she stood by the door. However, right as she had appeared by the door, He Niancheng had turned over.
It was as if he narrowed his eyes for a second.
It was as if he was saying that it was her again.
Gu Qingjiu felt a little awkward because she was really scared that He Niancheng would think that she was purposefully appearing in front of him.
However, since she had a proper reason, she relaxed a little. She saluted, “Good evening, Chief Instructor.”
“Hm.” He Niancheng put down the bottle of medicine he was holding, his voice cold and indifferent as he said, “Why are you here?”
“I came to get a type of ointment from Doctor Nan, the type that can relieve sore muscles.”
Her explanation was more detailed, so He Niancheng instantly looked away. “I know. You’re not the only one that came.”
With that said, he opened his mouth once more, as if scoffing at her slightly. His voice was cold and thin. “Delicate.”
Gu Qingjiu was speechless, feeling that this Chief Instructor was a little unreasonable. That was why she honestly admitted, “Yes, you’re right.”
He Niancheng was silent.
