Chapter 309 - Im Dating Someone

“Qingjiu.”

Qi Xiaoran broke away from her older brother’s embrace and shouted to Gu Qingjiu.

When Gu Qingjiu looked over, Qi Xiaoran waved at her. “I’m going to eat with my brother. Are you waiting for your older brother?”

Gu Qingjiu nodded. “You guys go ahead. I’ll wait for my brother.”

Qi Yefan nodded, before pulling Qi Yefan’s arm and leaving with him.

Right before leaving, Gu Qingjiu saw a hint of coldness in Qi Yefan’s eyes as he gazed at her.

Gu Qingjiu was dumbfounded.

Did she offend Qi Xiaoran’s older brother?

Also, Qi Xiaoran should at least have introduced Gu Qingjiu to her own brother, but she didn’t.

Of course, Gu Qingjiu didn’t care much about that, but she somehow felt weird about it.

Shortly after, Gu Qingmo came down from the hostel behind the school building.

When he saw Gu Qingjiu, he couldn’t quite believe his eyes. “Qingjiu, you’re really here!”

At the sight of Gu Qingmo, Gu Qingjiu immediately waved at him with a smile and bounced. “Brother.”

Gu Qingmo went over a curious look on his face. “Why are you in the capital? Aren’t you busy in the army?”

“Brother, I’ll tell you a good piece of news. I’ll be staying in the capital from now on. I’ve transferred from the troops and am currently studying at the military university. It’s the weekend today, so I decided to come over to visit you.”

Gu Qingjiu was fidgeting and had a gloating look on her face.

Gu Qingmo was indeed stunned. “Did you step on dog poop[1]?”

Gu Qingjiu was speechless.

He was indeed her older brother!

“What step on dog poop? Your sister—I—was transferred here because of my brilliance, okay?” Gu Qingjiu shamelessly praised herself, before pushing at Gu Qingmo’s body. “Go, go, go, bring me to eat. I haven’t eaten, I’m starving.”

Upon hearing that she was hungry, Gu Qingmo instantly prepared to bring Gu Qingjiu to eat. “I’ll bring you to eat outside. I know there’s a restaurant that serves tasty food. During lunch tell me what exactly is going on. You’re truly bold, even Dad and Mom didn’t tell me about this.”

Gu Qingjiu was all smiling.

Could she have told him?

There was another major matter that happened at home, and she certainly couldn’t tell him about that.

Gu Qingmo first went upstairs to retrieve something. As Gu Qingjiu couldn’t enter the guys’ hostel, she simply waited for him downstairs. After Gu Qingmo came out, he too rode a public bike and the two of them rode out to eat outside.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The place Gu Qingmo brought Gu Qingjiu to served home-style cooking.

The food served by this small eatery was indeed not bad, and the prices were friendly to the wallet as well.

Despite that, it would be considered to be on the more expensive side in Dayi City.

One meal cost several hundred yuan.

As she ate, Gu Qingjiu told her brother about her life in the military in detail.

Of course, she kept that not-so-peaceful incident at the Gu family from him.

But towards the end, when Gu Qingmo heard the reason Gu Qingjiu was transferred to the military school, he burst out laughing instantly. “You, a marksman? Why do I find it so hard to believe?”

Gu Qingjiu slapped him, her brows slightly furrowed. “Why don’t you believe it? You despise me, your younger sister.”

“Of course not, of course not.” Gu Qingmo smiled perfunctorily.

“Oh right, Brother...” Gu Qingjiu picked up a piece of potato. She had wanted to ask about Qi Xiaoran’s older brother, but she suddenly recalled that Qi Xiaoran never told her what her brother’s name was. Subconsciously, she blurted out, “Err, I started dating...”

When those words came out, even she herself was stunned.

Gu Qingmo didn’t appear as happy as she had imagined he would be. He instantly set down the cup he was holding and asked, “Who?”
