Chapter 113: I Was Spacing Out. Couldn’t You Tell, Chief Instructor?
After the afternoon’s training, the instructor Chen Haoyang asked Gu Qingjiu to stay.
Gu Qingjiu didn’t understand the reason behind this. After everyone had left, Chen Haoyang said to her, “Gu Qingjiu, you go to the infirmary later. Commander Huo is waiting there for you. He needs to see you regarding something.”
“Mm? Ok, instructor. I’ll go right over.”
It baffled Gu Qingjiu.
Why was Commander Huo asking to see her?
It had been a long time since she visited that place.
But on Chen Haoyang’s instructions, she went to the infirmary.
When she reached the place, Gu Qingjiu saw Nan Yingxuan dressing a bandage for a new recruit.
There were very few people in the infirmary at that moment. Other than those who were sick, people wouldn’t randomly come around.
She heard that there were orders from the higher-ups that disallowed recruits from coming to the infirmary without any reason.
Gu Qingjiu felt that it was perhaps Chief Instructor’s orders, for he frequently appeared there.
When Gu Qingjiu went in, both Commander Huo and the Chief Instructor weren’t around.
On the other hand, Nan Yingxuan saw Gu Qingjiu first. Seeing her enter, he revealed a warm smile at her. “Qingjiu, you’re here?”
His familiar tone of voice made Gu Qingjiu pause for a moment.
Sometimes, Nan Yingxuan unknowingly resembled Su Lingche in some areas.
It was because Su Lingche had left a deep imprint upon Gu Qingjiu’s heart; she remembered him so vividly.
Actually, Nan Yingxuan was even more perfect than Su Lingche. Comparing him with Su Lingche, Gu Qingjiu felt it was an insult to Nan Yingxuan.
She nodded and smiled. “Doctor Nan, are Commander Huo and the Chief Instructor coming? My instructor said he needs to see me regarding something.”
Nan Yingxuan carefully lowered the bandaged wrist of the soldier. “They should be here soon.”
He then meticulously gave the soldier some instructions while the latter attentively listened before thanking him and leaving. There was an affable smile on Nan Yingxuan’s face.
Watching him, Gu Qingjiu felt even more that she was letting Doctor Nan down by comparing him with Su Lingche.
Come to think of it, the gentle manner Su Lingche treated people with reeked of pretentiousness.
Unlike Doctor Nan who was so natural in what he does that it made one feel so pleasant. It felt like an extravagance being in Doctor Nan’s company.
Indeed, she only saw things with a clear view now. She hated herself for being so naïve back then.
Unknowingly, Gu Qingjiu recalled the ending of her life before her rebirth, causing her gaze to darken.
He Niancheng and Huo Yingcheng entered just in time to see Gu Qingjiu, who was propping up her chin and staring somewhere, seemingly in a daze.
It seemed like she wasn’t in a great mood.
Huo Yingcheng was about to ask Gu Qingjiu, when the man next to him coldly said, “What are you doing?”
He was staring not at Nan Yingxuan, but at Gu Qingjiu.
Huo Yingcheng’s gaze was seized by terror.
He looked at He Niancheng first, before turning towards Gu Qingjiu.
Hearing the familiar voice, Gu Qingjiu turned around and saw that the Chief Instructor and Commander Huo had entered. She immediately stood up and saluted them.
“Hello, Chief instructor! Hello, Commander Huo!”
He Niancheng glanced at Gu Qingjiu, his gaze cold and deep.
“I asked you, what are you doing?”
He repeated his question.
Huo Yingcheng was staring so hard his eyeballs were about to pop out.
What astonished him was Gu Qingjiu’s reply.
She did not seem to have realized something, and she replied, “I was spacing out. Couldn’t you tell Chief Instructor?”
