However, Gu Xiaoxi thought about the future. Zhang Jingyue would be working in the same area as Quan Shaoqing. Perhaps, one day she might not be by Quan Shaoqing’s side.
If Zhang Jingyue were to encounter Quan Shaoqing and then seduce that lecherous, indecisive scoundrel...
Gu Xiaoxi’s expression instantly darkened. If that were the case, in the future, Zhang Jingyue might marry Quan Shaoqing, and then she would become family with her...
Gu Xiaoxi couldn’t muster a smile anymore, and looking at Zhang Jingyue, she said coldly with a sneer, "Congratulations on getting into Headquarters. You’ve finally gotten one step closer to your beloved Quan Shaoqing. However, I think he probably doesn’t fancy you. Because your character is truly despicable."
She wanted everyone to see Zhang Jingyue’s true colors, so she wouldn’t always rely on her family’s influence to establish connections and have others do her dirty work. If she wasn’t mistaken, the Major General Qin Zhu mentioned by Zhang Jingyue was that man.
Sure enough, after hearing Gu Xiaoxi’s words, Qin Zhu’s brow furrowed, and his gaze once again turned suspiciously towards Gu Xiaoxi.
Zhang Jingyue, seeing the change in Qin Zhu’s expression, gritted her teeth in anger at Gu Xiaoxi, and ultimately had no choice but to completely roll up the car window. She then turned back to Qin Zhu and explained, "In the new recruits’ company, she was already unbearably arrogant. In the Reconnaissance Company, she was even more so, having offended the top ten masters. She’s just too full of herself and has always bullied me, assaulting me personally. So, Qin Zhu, don’t listen to her nonsense. She’s just trying to slander me."
Qin Zhu drove silently. Turning to see Zhang Jingyue’s panicked face, he asked sternly, "Did you really come to Headquarters for Young Master Quan?"
Grinding her teeth, Zhang Jingyue saw she couldn’t deceive Qin Zhu and finally nodded in admission, "You should know, he doesn’t take women seriously. That’s why I had to follow him to the military. As long as you help me, I can help you with any issues you have in the future. Although Grandfather has stepped down from active duty, he has many students who are very successful."
Qin Zhu’s grip on the steering wheel tightened before he finally said in a cold tone, "I’ll keep this matter hidden for you for now. In the future, I will also help you matchmake, but don’t forget your promise."
"No, I won’t forget. Whatever you need in the future, I will help you," Zhang Jingyue eagerly assured.
At the same time, she thought, Qin Zhu was being sensible.
She couldn’t provoke the Zhang family, nor could she provoke Young Master Quan. She liked those who knew when to retreat in the face of difficulty.
Gu Xiaoxi watched the military vehicle carrying Zhang Jingyue away, her mood instantly filled with gloom.
Xiao Jiang drove up, and as Gu Xiaoxi got in, she felt it was necessary to give Quan Shaoqing a heads-up when he returned.
If Zhang Jingyue was at home, there was no place for her.
If she was there, then Zhang Jingyue had to be absent, and he would have to decide.
Seeing Gu Xiaoxi’s bad mood, Xiao Jiang immediately asked worryingly, "Miss Gu, who has bothered you again?"
"A disgusting person," Gu Xiaoxi replied, leaning against the car window, completely lacking the mood to appreciate the scenery outside.
The car soon stopped at Headquarters Hospital.
Gu Xiaoxi had to ask several nurses before she found Yeh Bai.
Having not seen him for a long time, she noticed Yeh Bai had lost weight. Dressed in a full set of surgical scrubs, he looked particularly professional, more robust than before, and full of vigor.
Yeh Bai saw Gu Xiaoxi and, thrilled, opened his arms wide and charged toward her. He didn’t care that his surgical gown was still stained with blood.
Gu Xiaoxi’s mouth twitched, and as Yeh Bai was about to get close, she kicked him in the chest, pushing him back, "Show-off! Keep away from me. You have no professional ethics at all!"
