At that point, Xiong Xuejian sighed. “Return to the troops first and join your specialization’s troops. At the back, fifth row, third column. Fall into position according to your height.”
Gu Qingjiu’s lips quivered, before saying, “Yes.”
She then strode towards the troops.
When she fell in with the troops, she didn’t care about how others were looking at her.
It was as though it wasn’t her that got scolded earlier on. One couldn’t see any shame or anger from Gu Qingjiu’s face.
When Gu Qingjiu was undergoing training, she saw Qi Xiaoran standing behind the door. The latter nodded her head at her, before leaving.
News of the new student being picked on spread throughout the school very rapidly.
When Huo Yingcheng heard of this news, he went into He Niancheng’s office with a stack of documents.
‘Smack!’
He slammed that stack of documents on He Niancheng’s office desk. “Did that Qin fellow’s head squashed by a door or something? What did Qingjiu do to make him pick on her?”
“He even did it under some excuse of Gu Qingjiu not reporting to him.”
“Bah, I think he’s just pissed about the fact that you took his position. He knows you came from the Dayi military zone, and Qingjiu, too. He’s deliberately making trouble for her! Damn. Qingjiu must be unlucky this year to have chosen his specialization!”
Huo Yingcheng’s voice was very loud, so loud that people in the adjacent office could hear him.
Thankfully there was no one in the adjacent office at that moment.
He Niancheng was in the office, and before him was a stack of the documents that had to be dealt with due to his new appointment.
When he heard Huo Yingcheng’s words, he merely paused for a moment before picking up a document and continuing to look through it, as though what Huo Yincheng said didn’t affect him at all. He also didn’t reprimand Huo Yingcheng for speaking so loudly.
Seeing his cold reaction, Huo Yingcheng was astounded. “Damn, Major-General. Qingjiu is being picked on more or less because of you. Aren’t you going to handle this matter?”
Moreover, the reason He Niancheng came here to be the Chief Instructor was obvious—could he even stay out of this matter?
Who knew that He Niancheng would look up at him—an icy coldness in his eyes like usual. “If I have to handle everything for her, what is she capable of doing herself?”
His words were harsh.
Huo Yingcheng was speechless.
He nearly cussed out loud.
Then why did you come here?
He even roped him into this!
Judging from his expression, He Niancheng didn’t look like he had any intention of helping Gu Qingjiu. He Niancheng pulled out a chair and sat down, feeling indignant as he mumbled to himself.
“It’s already seven p.m. Everyone else is in their hostel preparing to rest, and Qingjiu is still in the practice range. Aye, I wonder if she’s tired or thirsty.”
“How did a fine girl like her get implicated by a scumbag…”
As Huo Yingcheng spoke, he felt that the Major-General was becoming increasingly unfathomable and detestable.
He was carelessly speaking more and more, with disregard for the consequences. It was only when He Niancheng shot him a warning look, that he got up with indignant resentment. “I’ll go take a look at Qingjiu.”
After he had gone away, the lights in He Niancheng’s office remained turned on.
However, about several minutes later, the lights went out after a smacking sound.
Huo Yingcheng went to the shooting range where Gu Qingjiu was practicing at.
In the brightly lit classroom, there were only several people still practicing in the shooting range.
Other than Gu Qingjiu, there were a few other freshmen.
The students were allowed to practice in the shooting range, but only until 11 p.m.
But since Gu Qingjiu was being punished, she was an exception.
