At night, Gu Qingjiu went to where Yu Bao’er was temporarily staying.
Although she was in university, she didn’t live on campus. Instead, she had rented a one-bedroom apartment outside of campus.
Although the one-bedroom apartment wasn’t luxurious, the kitchen and bathroom were well-equipped. Moreover, it was somewhere near her school.
Yu Bao’er revealed that rent here cost her over four thousand yuan a month.
And that was only the rent.
Ordinary families were unlikely to find this a good deal.
From this, one could see that Yu Bao’er’s family rather pampered her.
And since she was staying by herself, the two of them had a good time by themselves.
Although Gu Qingjiu had never slept on the same bed as Yu Bao’er in the past, it felt alright to be sleeping on the same bed with her now that she was on close ties with her.
Late at night, Gu Qingjiu took a shower first, and Yu Bao’er went after her.
Shortly after Yu Bao’er entered the shower, the Chief Instructor called Gu Qingjiu.
“Are you having fun?”
It was a simple question that showed he cared.
Although He Niancheng wasn’t as passionate as others, it made this gesture all the more heartwarming.
Even merely hearing his voice made Gu Qingjiu very happy.
A smile instantly spread across her face. Lying underneath the thin blanket Yu Bao’er found for her, she said with a light smile, “I’m having great fun.”
However, she didn’t tell him about the unfortunate incident of running into Yu Shiwei earlier on.
“Good to hear that. If I have time next week, I’ll go out with you.”
After he had said this, Gu Qingjiu heard the sound of papers flipping over the phone.
Seems like the Chief Instructor was busy.
“I’m applying for leave too frequently. Let’s wait for two weeks. Of course, if you want to come out, I can oblige.”
“We’ll do as you say.”
He Niancheng had always given in to her in such matters.
When she heard this, she felt a numbing sensation creep up her spine, tickling her heart and bringing about a joyful feeling.
Gu Qingjiu subconsciously rolled about on the bed, her lips curled up in a smile so vibrant she couldn’t even sense it herself.
She and He Niancheng chatted on and off. When Yu Bao’er came out in her pajamas and saw this scene, her eyeballs nearly popped out.
The experienced Yu Bao’er instantly sensed that Xiao Jiu’er must be on the phone with her boyfriend.
Otherwise, why would she be smiling in this manner?
When Gu Qingjiu saw Yu Bao’er come out, she thought to herself ‘Oh no’ then came up with some excuse to hang up the call.
Seeing Gu Qingjiu end the call, Yu Bao’er sighed and pointed a finger at Gu Qingjiu. “Aiyoyoh, Xiao Jiu’er, fess up. Which wild man were you chatting with to be smiling like that?!”
“What wild man?”
Gu Qingjiu patted Yu Bao’er with a helpless smile.
She couldn’t continue keeping things under wraps. But still, she decided to maintain some of the mystery.
“That was my boyfriend.”
“You have a boyfriend!”
Yu Bao’er pounced onto the bed in disbelief, pinning on top of Gu Qingjiu. “Fess up. Who’s your boyfriend? Tell the truth and you will receive a lighter sentence!”
“You know my boyfriend as well. Try guessing.”
Gu Qingjiu deliberately kept her in suspense.
Yu Bao’er was quiet for a moment. “I know him too? There’s only one guy we know in common. Could it be…”
