Chapter 659: Untitled
After Helian Niancheng went out, Gu Qingjiu went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Though still a struggle, it was much easier to take a shower now than it was at the start. She could take care of herself already, even though it required some effort.
After a shower, Gu Qingjiu went to the bedroom and took a nap.
Gu Qingjiu woke up at three in the afternoon.
When she woke up, Helian Niancheng had yet to get back.
Feeling hungry, she wanted to get some hotel food delivered to her room. Still, she suddenly felt a craving for spicy and sour food from other sources, so she got up and changed into a set of clothes before going out.
After eating to her heart’s content, Gu Qingjiu returned, and she received a call from the association.
They said that although Gu Qingjiu had an injury, she couldn’t neglect the necessary training.
After July, Gu Qingjiu would have to go to Elder Gong’s for her training in August.
The competition had just ended, and it was time for her to learn stuff that only Yin Ruoyi would know.
Especially because come October, Gu Qingjiu would take part in the national shooting competition, so she naturally had to prepare for it.
That meant that Gu Qingjiu’s summer break was only this short one month.
Gu Qingjiu didn’t complain and agreed immediately.
If she wished to obtain victory in the grand competition in the three years to come, she had to put in the corresponding effort.
After hanging up, Gu Qingjiu called Qi Yuefeng and informed her she wouldn’t be going back.
It was because the competition would start in September.
Qi Yuefeng was understanding about this.
After that, Gu Qingjiu returned to the hotel.
But she hadn’t expected to see someone, much to her surprise.
Gu Qingjiu honestly didn’t wish to say, ‘enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road.’ Still, as this was so sudden, she couldn’t find any other description for it.
Could it be that this mother-and-daughter duo frequently hung out in the capital nowadays?
Their company, which was far away in North City, was free of problems now?
Gu Qingjiu saw Tan Yalan.
As she entered the lobby, she saw Tan Yalan and a group of rich women walking out.
The group of them were chatting merrily, exuding an exquisite elegance.
Still, perhaps because their identities weren’t of the same level, Tan Yalan, who was feigning arrogance, was walking at the edge of the group—not that Gu Qingjiu was belittling her.
She looked incredibly awkward, trying her best to blend into the group while feeling too proud to butter up to the other women.
But Tan Yalan’s amorous vibe didn’t pale compared to these rich women.
Her light blue cheongsam perfectly accentuated her flattering figure.
It wasn’t hard to imagine just how stunning she must have been in her younger days.
However, her smile completely stiffened at the sight of Gu Qingjiu.
Though, she wasn’t as shocked as to how Gu Qingjiu imagined.
After a moment of tension, her exquisitely drawn brows revealed a hint of contempt.
This brought about both amusement and unending coldness in Gu Qingjiu’s heart.
Gu Qingjiu wanted to pretend she didn’t see her, but as she passed by Tan Yalan, the latter took the initiative to speak up.
“At the start, I had thought that Shiwei was merely joking. I truly never expected this, Gu Qingjiu...”
She spoke, hinting at a deeper meaning. Gu Qingjiu instantly halted in her footsteps. “What do you mean?”
Tan Yalan stopped in her tracks as well. The group of rich women next to her followed suit.
They were staring at the duo with astonishment and confusion.
But one of them, a beautiful and gracious woman, widened her eyes in shock at the sight of Gu Qingjiu.
She covered the corner of her lips with her fingers to conceal her astonishment.
Only then did Tan Yalan turn her gaze towards Gu Qingjiu.
