“I’m being harsh? You better get this straight. Who’s the one who always picked a fight? If you can’t tell right from wrong, you have no business bringing that up here.”
Gu Qingjiu’s gaze turned cold, and she spoke so candidly.
Jiang Yu’s face turned stiff, and she was suddenly lost for words.
Gu Qingjiu had always acted like she didn’t care about anything; hence, people said she liked to act nobly.
Now that she had taken such things seriously, Jiang Yu felt that Gu Qingjiu was going overboard.
But she had fallen silent, her eyes indistinctly glancing towards Gao Rui.
Gao Rui didn’t look like she was about to stand up for them; on the other hand, she was watching this situation unfold with an amused expression.
With Feng Meiyun and Jiang Yu losing in this confrontation, things ended peacefully.
Else, if they continued stirring up trouble, who knew what consequences there would be.
The fact that there was suddenly one more person in the hostel didn’t affect Gu Qingjiu’s life in any way.
She went around by herself these days.
Gao Rui was also on closer ties with Jiang Yu and the gang.
On the second day, Xie Ya entered the advanced training camp, but with many people talking behind her back.
Time gradually passed.
In the blink of an eye, Gu Qingjiu had stayed in the formal military camp for a month.
During this period, she didn’t much interact with the others in the dormitory. In two days’ time, it was already due for the month’s dueling session.
And it was also Gu Qingjiu’s opportunity to apply to the advanced training camp.
She had to give this her best shot.
The only thing that surprised her was that this Gao Rui performed very well in their dueling lessons.
But no matter how well she did, it wouldn’t stop Gu Qingjiu from fighting to get into the advanced training camp.
It was already Friday. The competition would start on Monday.
Unfortunately, Gu Qingjiu’s period cropped up at the most crucial time.
Just as Doctor Nan said, with her improved body constitution, plus the fact that the food in the canteen was light-flavored and nutritious, she didn’t feel any discomfort in her abdomen when her period came.
But she was drowsy all throughout her period.
After the training ended, Gu Qingjiu went to retrieve her phone. After lying on her bed to play on her phone, she didn’t feel like moving.
Chatting sounds could be heard from outside. Gao Rui and the gang were back.
One look at Gao Rui and you’d know she was different from the rest.
Every time they went to collect their electronic items, she came back with a phone, laptop, tablet, and gadgets of all varieties.
This time they came back and placed these items on the table, before all of them went out together.
Gu Qingjiu laid on her side on the bed, showing no response to them.
As she laid on the bed, she unknowingly fell asleep.
Later, the sound of someone’s phone ringing woke her up.
She remembered that it was her own ringtone. In a sleepy and dazed state, she picked up the call.
“Hello?”
Yet to completely sober up, there was a hint of laziness in her tone.
“You… are you sleeping?”
She could hear an unfamiliar and delicate voice of a woman on the other end of the line. There also was a hint of caution in her tone.
Although, amidst this caution, there was an inconsolable awkwardness brewing.
But when she heard this woman’s voice, Gu Qingjiu snapped out of her sleepy state and was fully awake at an instant.
As she opened her eyes, there was a coldness in her gaze that resembles a sharp knife that could put someone to death.
“Who are you?”
Her sudden, extremely cold voice caught the person on the phone off guard.
“I… I…” She sounded a little awkward about how to reveal her identity. What she ultimately said made Gu Qingjiu feel like laughing.
“I—I’m your biological mother, child!”
She even sounded a little choked towards the end.
A soundless sneer appeared on Gu Qingjiu’s face. Someone from the Yu family finally showed up.
