Wife is Fierce, Don't Mess With Her! - Chapter 178
Chapter 178: Becoming Friendly
“Gao Rui, join the squad first and train alongside them.”
Chen Haoyang asked Gao Rui to line up with the squad. Since her height was similar to Gu Qingjiu’s, she went to stand beside her.
Gu Qingjiu did not show any outright reactions.
She could subtly feel that Chen Haoyang’s tone was more polite when he talked to her. It was as if he was treating her carefully.
She immediately thought back to yesterday when she was still dressed like a city maiden as she looked for the Chief Instructor.
Perhaps she was someone the Chief Instructor knew?
Even when she thought about that, Gu Qingjiu revealed nothing in her expression.
This new recruit—Gao Rui—seemed to give the guys in the squad a boost of adrenaline.
She was a girl who had an overflowing beauty and a unique aura.
One could distinctly feel that Gao Rui was raised in a noble family judging by the exquisite air she had around her.
Like she should be treated with special attention and be cared for dearly.
When she smiled, it was so bright that it seemed to have the power to melt all things, and it was a stark contrast to Gu Qingjiu who was always expressionless.
The newly arrived Gao Rui immediately replaced Gu Qingjiu as the flower of the squad.
Gu Qingjiu’s face was the type that looked exquisite and generous. When she was expressionless, it had something icy cold to it which could make people take a step back. Coupled with her personality, her nickname of ice goddess was truly befitting of her.
When Gu Qingjiu first entered the army, no one expected Gu Qingjiu to become so pretty after she had slimmed down. Hence when guys tried to get closer to her, there was always an unspeakable awkwardness between them.
It made them feel like they are a bunch of shallow people since they used to judge people based on their looks.
So they did not dare to talk to Gu Qingjiu.
And this newly-arrived Gao Rui seemed to win Gu Qingjiu in all aspects by just a little. Her personality seemed gentle as well, so naturally she became the new target for many guys.
Not only that, during training, everyone was surprised to know that Gao Rui could follow their training routine so easily. Her stamina was on par with them, which did not fit her soft appearance.
In the afternoon when training was over, everyone went to eat at the canteen.
Gu Qingjiu went to the queue alone.
Yu Bao’er was no longer by her side. Although Gu Qingjiu was slightly not yet used to it, she could still go by.
When she was queuing, Gao Rui walked in.
Surprisingly, Jiang Yu and the gang had accompanied her.
But because she was not paying much attention to this new comrade, she naturally couldn’t be too bothered by it.
When she was done collecting her meal, she found a seat at the corner and sat down.
People around were all conversing in low tones. But even so, with this many people around, the voices seemed to add up into a rowdy mess.
Which only made Gu Qingjiu’s lonely silhouette more obvious.
She swiftly finished half her rice when someone suddenly sat down in front of her.
“Hey. No one’s sitting here, right?”
Gu Qingjiu raised her head up only to see a tall and handsome man.
He seemed a little familiar.
But Gu Qingjiu didn’t know him.
She paused before shaking her head. “No one’s sitting here.”
But she ate fast.
The guy in front of her sat down quickly. As he looked at Gu Qingjiu’s actions, he seemed to realize something but didn’t mind it. Both corners of his mouth morphed into a slight smile. “I know you. You’re one of the new recruits under Chen Haoyang, right? I’m your instructor’s comrade.”
Gu Qingjiu lifted her gaze and raised her brow, but she showed nothing otherwise. “Oh?”
