Chapter 330 - Despair Gives Courage Even to A Coward (1)

After exiting the infirmary, Gu Qingjiu returned to the dormitory.

After all that, Gu Qian and Chu Lian have finished their training as well.

They laid on the bed in their tired state while Chu Lian massaged Gu Qian.

The two girls were chuckling on the bed.

“Eh, Qingjiu, you’re back? Where did you go? Have you eaten?”

Gu Qian greeted Gu Qingjiu at once.

“Xiaoran fell sick so I sent her to the infirmary.”

Gu Qingjiu sat on her bed as she massaged her shoulders.

A whole morning of looking at her computer caused her shoulders to feel sore.

Gu Qian exchanged glances with Chu Lian.

They were actually not close to Qi Xiaoran since she had a distant feeling—even more than Gu Qingjiu.

Since staying in the same dormitory, they’ve exchanged less than two sentences with her.

But they were roommates after all. Besides not having deep talks with her, they held no grudges against her. Chu Lian asked in concern, “Why did she suddenly fall sick? What time did she come back yesterday?”

Qi Xiaoran’s sudden appearances and disappearances caught Chu Lian and Gu Qian’s attention.

The military school had strict rules and yet Qi Xiaoran could return that late. They’d surely be able to tell that something was off.

But since the school was not probing, they wouldn’t as well.

“Quite late. She probably caught a cold on her way back.”

Gu Qingjiu randomly gave an excuse to help Qi Xiaoran.

“Oh...”

It was not too nice for Gu Qian and Chu Lian to probe too much since they were not that close with each other.

In the afternoon, not long after Gu Qian and the rest left for training, Gu Qingjiu prepared to go to the shooting department after completing her revision for computer studies.

Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly received a call from Yu Bao’er.

Yu Bao’er still kept in contact with Gu Qingjiu now and then, but because Gu Qingjiu was busy with studies and training while Yu Bao’er was having too much fun outside, they didn’t have much time to contact each other.

“Xiao Jiu’er, you’re so heartless for not contacting me for so long!”

The moment the call connected, Yu Bao’er complained.

The previous time Gu Qingjiu called her, it was to personally tell her that she was going to a military school.

“Yeah, yeah, it’s my fault.”

Hearing Yu Bao’er’s cheerful voice, Gu Qingjiu couldn’t help the slight uplift of her mouth. “I’m a little busy at military school, so I couldn’t contact you.”

“I know that as well!” Yu Bao’er was straightforward. “Hahaha, Qingjiu, I’ll be able to find you at the Capital soon!”

Gu Qingjiu raised her eyebrows in surprise. “You’re coming to the capital?”

“That’s right! I’m also coming to the Capital to study! After I left the army, my parents kept nagging me since I was doing nothing at home. They wanted me to study no matter what. After knowing that you’re at the Capital, I tried all ways to get them to promise to get me a slot at a university in the capital. It’s just a normal university though and it’s very far from your military university, but at least we will be able to keep each other company during weekends?”

Yu Bao’er was elated that the moment she got the news, she called Gu Qingjiu directly.

“Okay.”

Gu Qingjiu promised straightaway.

After all, Yu Bao’er shared a great relationship with her in the army. Now that she was coming to the capital, it was naturally great news.

Although they were not in the same school, at least they would be able to find time during weekends to meet up.

Yu Bao’er specially called her to tell her this piece of news and went to do her things afterward.

After hanging up the call, Gu Qingjiu received a text message.

She thought it was some notification but when she opened it, the joy on her face was wiped off completely.

— Gu Qingjiu, are you really this heartless? I’m your biological mother. Are you going to watch on as our Yu family plunge into ruins?

The number was anonymous but just from the content, Gu Qingjiu could tell who it was from.

Tan Yalan!
