Wife is Fierce, Don't Mess With Her! - Chapter 675
Chapter 675: Returning to School, Having a Meal Together
The summer break ended, and on 1st September, schools officially started for tertiary institutions across the country.
There was a month until the nationwide shooting competition in October.
Gu Qingjiu had moved her luggage back to the dormitory two days before the summer break ended, even though Helian Niancheng didn’t seem too happy about it.
But he didn’t object to it.
Gu Qingjiu thought she would be the first to return to school, but to her surprise, when she got to the dormitory, she found out that Qi Xiaoran was already there.
No idea if Gu Qingjiu was hallucinating, but Qi Xiaoran seemed… a tad more haggard throughout a summer break.
When Gu Qingjiu reached the dormitory with her luggage, she saw Qi Xiaoran seated on the upper bunk, staring at her phone with her brows furrowed.
“Xiaoran, you’re back so early?”
Qi Xiaoran had long heard Gu Qingjiu coming in. But only when she listened to the latter speaking did she look up and nod. “Mm.”
“How was your summer break?”
Gu Qingjiu shifted her luggage into the dormitory and started taking inventory of her luggage items, taking the chance to chat with Qi Xiaoran.
As she moved her arms, it exposed her scar, which had yet to fade completely, especially that she was clad in a thin, loose long-sleeved top. Qi Xiaoran saw that.
She was a tad shocked. “How did you get that arm injury?”
Gu Qingjiu paused, then glanced at her arm, but didn’t deliberately conceal anything. “I’m fine. An accident happened during the summer break, nothing serious.”
Qi Xiaoran then stopped talking.
She gazed at Gu Qingjiu. Perhaps because they were a bit similar…
Right away, Qi Xiaoran sniffed an abnormal shift in Gu Qingjiu.
Compared to the aloof aura she used to give off, there was now a sweet gentleness added to it.
But that aloofness in her eyes was still like before.
Qi Xiaoran couldn’t be more familiar with such a transformation.
She could even indistinctly guess what had happened to Gu Qingjiu.
But she didn’t ask.
She lowered her head once more to stare at her phone.
It had been two days since her older brother last sent her a text message.
He didn’t even show concern regarding her returning to school in advance. Did she make him mad?
Just then, Gu Qingjiu, who had just finished packing, suggested, “Since we don’t have training tonight anyway, and Gu Qian and Chu Lian aren’t back yet, shall we go out to eat?”
Qi Xiaoran paused for a moment, then cast another glance at her phone before gently setting it down. “Alright.”
Since she had nothing better to do, anyway.
It was indeed too lonely all by herself.
Without her older brother, she was somewhat helpless.
She did not know what she should be doing.
Gu Qingjiu was quite surprised to see Qi Xiaoran agree to her proposal.
She didn’t overthink this and simply left the school with Qi Xiaoran.
As they walked along the street outside the school entrance, Gu Qingjiu went to that restaurant she had been to with Gu Qian and Chu Lian several times before.
After all, in this area, only this restaurant serves decent food.
They entered the shop and there were many people around. It was perhaps because school was officially starting tomorrow, and military school students returned in advance.
When Gu Qingjiu and Qi Xiaoran entered the steamboat restaurant, their entrance even caused a commotion.
One was the champion in the shooting competition last year, while the other was the combat competition champion.
Moreover, it was quite rare to see such good-looking juniors from school.
When the two walked together, people couldn’t help staring in admiration at their gorgeous faces.
After a momentary silence, the sounds of discussion started getting more heated. As they spoke, they even cast glances towards Gu Qingjiu and Qi Xiaoran from time to time.
Gu Qingjiu and Qi Xiaoran chose a relatively quieter spot, which blocks out all those surrounding gazes. Gu Qingjiu handed the menu to Qi Xiaoran and said, “You can order.”
