Chapter 480: Had Her By the Throat

Gu Qingjiu hesitated for a moment. “Ninth… Department? Since when did I agree to join?”

Though she didn’t reach out to shake Lu Ziyang’s hand, he didn’t seem to mind that.

Looking behind Gu Qingjiu, the man who brought her there let out a soft sneer seeing this. He then turned and walked out the door of this conference room.

Before he left, Lu Ziyang warned, “Lie Feng, remember what I said—don’t smoke in the base. You know Boss hates funny smells in the base the most.”

The man whom he addressed as Lie Feng raised a hand and responded impatiently without even turning his head. “Got it.”

Bang!

The door to the conference room was closed. Lu Ziyang immediately extended a gentlemanly gesture to Gu Qingjiu. “Classmate Gu, please have a seat. I’ll explain things to you slowly.”

Gu Qingjiu knew that since she had no idea what was going on, she could only listen to Lu Ziyang’s explanation.

Hence, she sat down as she was told.

Lu Ziyang sat back down and flipped through the information he was sorting through, then looked towards Gu Qingjiu with both hands on the table, making him seem approachable. “I know you have many questions about why you’re here. I’ll answer the first question you raised earlier. You’re not the one choosing to join, but someone above wants you to join.”

Hearing this made Gu Qingjiu’s heart tremble.

Seeing the shaken expression on Gu Qingjiu’s face, Lu Ziyang smiled at her. “I know you’re a smart person and will be able to understand the meaning behind my words. In other words, we pledge loyalty to our country and devote our service to the country. Whether you join or not, is not up to you.”

That meant, it was the country’s decision for her to join.

As for who in the country, it wasn’t Gu Qingjiu’s place to ask.

“You’re a student in a military school now.”

Since she was a military school student, that meant she had to obey orders.

Gu Qingjiu instantly understood.

Her tense body slightly relaxed, a hint of doubt flashing across her eyes. “Why me?”

“Because you have a talent. Our country never wastes its talents,” Lu Ziyang explained.

It then occurred to Gu Qingjiu. “It’s because of my shooting talent?”

Her shooting talent was outstanding enough to attract attention from this department?

But Gu Qingjiu could indistinctly sense that this wasn’t the case.

Lu Ziyang raised a brow, but his tone remained gentle and warm. “Maybe, maybe not. I have no clearance to look at your information, but I have a rough knowledge of your situation. What stood out most clearly to me was that before you entered the military school, you received shooting training for the first time in the troops.”

“And after you entered the military school, when you participated in the first outdoor shooting activity of your life, you created a miraculous result.”

“I’ve seen your competition video and the Boss has seen it as well.”

“Pardon my frankness, Miss Gu, your talent is not simply extraordinary, but extremely rare. Even Yin Ruoyi of the National Defense University can’t be compared with you. But you don’t seem to realize this, and merely regard it as an ordinary talent.”

Extremely rare?

Gu Qingjiu trembled slightly at this phrase.

Most people would be ecstatic to hear such praise, but Gu Qingjiu felt that there was a hidden message behind Lu Ziyang’s words.

It gave her the creeps.

It was as though someone had her by the throat.
