Chapter 420 - The Compatible Duo

Gu Qingjiu nodded. All along she had known that this Qin Huai was a nasty fellow, but this was the first time she heard of how terrible he really was.

It wasn’t that she couldn’t see how much Qin Huai hated her.

But so long as he remained her Commanding Officer, as a student she had to maintain the most basic respect for him.

She originally wanted to look for Nian Chusheng to find out Lu Yimei’s current state, but Gu Qian comforted her by saying, “Don’t worry, Senior Lu Yimei is the pillar of the student body. She is set for a bright future ahead of her. The superiors won’t do much to the two of them. She will surely be fine.”

Despite hearing this from Gu Qian, Gu Qingjiu still felt bad.

Just then, Chu Lian—who was looking at her phone—suddenly let out a gasp. “Damn, Qingjiu. You’re famous now!”

Gu Qingjiu’s heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the photos secretly taken of her were uploaded by that scoundrel again?

“Famous? How so?”

She and Gu Qian edged closer to Chu Lian and saw that the latter was looking at the military schools’ public forum.

But Gu Qingjiu was unsure whether to laugh or to cry when she saw the headline.

So it turned out that someone revealed what had happened at the competition yesterday.

[National Defense University completely wiped out. A new development in the Shooting Department! Horrifying newbie from the National Military University of China eliminated 18 at one go. The second Yin Ruoyi?]

[Anonymous]: Due to fear of being assassinated by National Defense University, I’ll go anonymous this one time. Yesterday, when the three military schools were carrying out their usual outdoor shooting activity, a newbie from the National Military University of China suddenly appeared. During the nighttime competition, she completely wiped out the National Defense University, and by the end, there were only two survivors from Haihe Military University and the National Military University of China each. I believe those who knew the usual results from such competitions, would know what this represents! Back in those days, Yin Ruoyi merely managed to eliminate 15 people in his first battle. This newbie is simply unbelievable!”

Most importantly, this newbie was particularly good-looking!!

[Haihe Military University] Electronic Engineering Zhong Dahai 1L: This girl is so pretty, she’s of the goddess level!

[National Defense University] Systems Engineering Wu Hua 2L: Let me first make fun of our Shooting Department 23333[1]. But this girl is really pretty. It’s rare to see someone so beautiful without makeup!

[National Military University of China] Computer science and technology Li Kechun 3L: This girl and I belong to the same specialization. I’ve seen her in person. She really is very pretty. Moreover, she entered the Shooting Department shortly after transferring here =.=

...

[Haihe Military University] Information Engineering Cheng Bianzi 8L: You animals only focused on whether she’s pretty or not? Shouldn’t you guys talk about how she’s more brilliant than Yin Ruoyi in her first battle? 6666[2]. The salty fish that is the National Military University of China is about to turn over its body![3]

[National Military University of China] Information Engineering Zhu Yuan 9L: That fellow up there with the salty fish remark, do you believe I’ll finish you off?

...

...

Gu Qingjiu felt embarrassed reading the comments.

The forum participants’ real names had been verified, and all of them belonged to military schools. Hence, they were civilized in their exchanges. You wouldn’t see them hurling verbal abuses at each other on the forum, unlike elsewhere on the Internet.

Even if the National Defense University folks couldn’t quite take it lying down, they bowed in defeat after seeing Gu Qingjiu’s appearance.

In times like this, the National Defense University Shooting Department members would be too ashamed to leave comments online.

Only Yin Ruoyi’s fans could be seen speaking up for him.

But Chu Lian suddenly saw a comment: “This person said that since our Qingjiu is so good-looking and that Yin Ruoyi is a handsome single dude, the two of them would look compatible together...”

[1] it means “ha ha ha ha ha”

[2] it means cool/smooth/brilliant/smart

[3] the expression “salty fish turns over its body” means to turn things around
