“See, why would anyone go for a walk at night if she wasn’t in a relationship?”
Chu Lian was confident that she was right and the look on her face had a mysterious vibe to it. “I’ve seen how happy she looks when she comes back on many occasions. She definitely has a boyfriend, and he is from our school!”
Gu Qian tried to recall Gu Qingjiu’s behavior but didn’t find anything amiss. “I can’t seem to tell anything special about her.”
“That’s because you’re dumb.”
Gu Qian was speechless.
Gu Qian lunged at her and yelled, “You! I’ll punish you, evil demon, on behalf of the heavens!”
…
Since she hurried to come back, she didn’t reply to the Chief Instructor’s message.
Right after she left, the Chief Instructor called her.
Looking at her screen, Gu Qingjiu walked towards the teaching block and answered the call with guilt.
“Hello?”
“Did you not bring your phone out?”
His cold voice sounded from the other end of the line. Even though he couldn’t see her, she shook her head. “I saw your message. I was eating and came back to my dormitory after my practice.”
She was embarrassed to tell the Chief Instructor about her taking a shower because of how sweaty she was.
“Even if you’re eating, you should reply to my message. Otherwise, I would think that you’ve been kidnapped.”
His words were laced with a rare teasing tone. Gu Qingjiu scoffed in response. “How can I get kidnapped by someone now?”
She used to be naïve and didn’t expect the world to be such an evil place.
“Ha! Are you done eating? Come over quickly.”
“Yes, yes. I’m on my way.”
After Gu Qingjiu spoke, she hung up swiftly.
There were a number of students around her and Gu Qingjiu had to act as normal as she could.
Although no one would pay special attention to a student like her, things would be different if they realized that she was going towards the teaching block where the Chief Instructor was.
When she arrived at the block, she realized that the lights in He Niancheng’s office were switched off.
Why weren’t the lights on?
Did the Chief Instructor leave?
Doubtful, she still went upstairs.
When she reached the corridor upstairs, the lights all seemed to have been switched off for some unknown reason.
It was dark.
No one else was on this level.
This level only housed He Niancheng and Huo Yingcheng’s offices.
No one else would come around such a place.
It seemed like the Chief Instructor and Huo Yingcheng were both not around.
Nevertheless, Gu Qingjiu still crept towards He Niancheng’s door in order to not get caught by others.
Just as she was about to knock, the door flew open.
Someone instantly picked Gu Qingjiu up.
His actions were so fast that Gu Qingjiu couldn’t respond in time. She lost her footing and couldn’t fight back.
Frightened, she grabbed that person’s body tightly. But then, a familiar scent wafted through her nose.
“Chief Instructor?”
Gu Qingjiu’s body was full of tension, but soon enough u5 finally relaxed.
“Yes.”
Amid the darkness, a calm voice sounded.
It was different from the usual hoarseness of his voice.
He wrapped his arms around Gu Qingjiu’s waist and it made her blush intensely.
The lights in the office were switched off. With the lights from outside peeking through the windows, Gu Qingjiu could see her body draped all over the Chief Instructor’s torso.
Outside the room was ablaze with lights. On the contrary, the room was filled with a subtle hint of desire.
Gu Qingjiu couldn’t understand what the Chief Instructor was trying to do.
She glanced at how He Niancheng continued to carry her and sat on the leather couch at the side.
“Chief Instructor… Oh…”
Before she could speak, Gu Qingjiu felt his hand pressing against the back of her head.
His face was inching closer to her and his breath was hot on her face.
His actions were demanding as he wrapped his thin, cold lips around her soft lips that resembled fresh petals.
