Seeing Feng Yumeng show up, Gu Qingjiu felt a bit better.
Feng Yumeng walked in the door and saw Gu Qingjiu. She had her lips pursed and looked rather a little embarrassed.
She slowly walked towards Gu Qingjiu. “Qingjiu, I’m here.”
“Mm, good that you’re here.”
Gu Qingjiu gave a rare friendly smile and patted Feng Yumeng on her shoulders. “Then let’s start training here starting today. According to our rest schedules, every day after class ends and after your dinner, come here at six to meet me, then we’ll train until 7:30.”
Although Feng Yumeng had made up her mind to come, she still felt kind of sad to hear such an intensive training schedule. “How long are we going to train for?”
“Depends. When you no longer rank bottom in the entire level, we can halt our training for some time.”
Feng Yumeng was speechless.
Halt for some time.
Merely hearing this made one feel a sense of despair.
Feng Yumeng had always reckoned that Gu Qingjiu was a beautiful and kind-hearted girl.

It was because all this time, Gu Qingjiu had been treating her in an affable manner.
But that day’s training made Feng Yumeng realize just how naïve her thinking was.
The girl who was usually warm and gentle to her spared no mercy during that day’s combat training.
She didn’t spare any mercy in tossing Feng Yumeng at all.
If it wasn’t for the soft cushion underneath, Feng Yumeng reckoned her butt would have turned swollen from all that tossing.

Every time Feng Yumeng couldn’t take it anymore, Gu Qingjiu would say this: “This is weird. You can endure all sorts of other training in the military school, but not combat? Fear of pain is no excuse. You simply have to get used to it.”
Get used to it!
How brutal!

Feng Yumeng felt that she wouldn’t be able to survive a week under Gu Qingjiu.
When Gu Qingjiu struck at her, Feng Yumeng had to block her move. And if she failed to, she would ‘get thrashed.’
When Feng Yumeng struck at Gu Qingjiu, the latter would always be able to fend herself and even retaliate.
Oftentimes, Feng Yumeng would tear up from the great pain she suffered.
When 7:30 pm finally came, Feng Yumeng was in so much pain she thought her body would fall apart.
She felt both aggrieved and upset. But when Gu Qingjiu supported her as she walked back to the dormitory, she felt too embarrassed to unleash that aggrieved feeling in her heart.
After all, Gu Qingjiu was sacrificing her own training time to help her.
After sending Feng Yumeng back, Gu Qingjiu returned to her dormitory and prepared to take a shower.
Upon seeing her return in the dormitory, Gu Qian immediately came up to Gu Qingjiu and told her something that rather surprised her.
“Qingjiu Qingjiu, you know what? That Commanding Officer Qin who kept picking on you left our university today. I heard he was sent overseas by his family. What do you think happened? The heavens are finally opening their eyes?”
Gu Qingjiu was astonished to hear this. “Commanding Officer Qin was sent out of the country?”
“Right!”
The excitement was written all over Gu Qian’s face. Next to her, Chu Lian added, “I heard his family made the decision. We didn’t hear of the details, but someone figured he had offended some bigshot.”
Gu Qian asked, perplexed, “Bigshot? Other than offending our Qingjiu, who else has Qin Huai offended?”
1
“Since we don’t know of anyone else, that means this bigshot must be Qingjiu.”
When Chu Lian spoke, she cast a meaningful glance at Gu Qingjiu.
Gu Qingjiu shrugged her shoulders. “I don’t have that capability.”
Although she was shocked to hear that Qin Huai was sent out of the country, she wasn’t much concerned.
It was none of her business!
Of course, to have an eyesore disappear from her life did give her quite a kick.
