“Qingjiu’s words aren’t quite right.”
He Niancheng suddenly spoke up. He looked towards Gu Qingjiu, his voice incredibly gentle. “If I hadn’t agreed to it, Qingjiu wouldn’t be my girlfriend. But since I agreed to it, of course, it also had something to do with me.”
Gu Qingjiu’s face exploded with redness once more.
Gu Qingmo shivered next to them.
They were bullying him for not bringing his girlfriend along!
Even at her age, Qi Yuefeng had to admit that any girl wouldn’t be able to resist a man like He Niancheng after hearing these words.
But…
Qi Yuefeng frowned. Since it wasn’t convenient for her to say certain things to He Niancheng, she looked towards Gu Qingjiu and said somewhat begrudgingly, “You’re only 18 this year, not even 19. And you’re only a first-year university student. Why are you so anxious to get into a relationship? What’s more? Instructor He is an instructor. Wouldn’t the two of you dating affect him?”
In the first part, she was talking about Gu Qingjiu, and in the subsequent part, she was speaking in consideration of He Niancheng.
He Niancheng didn’t feel displeased hearing those words, only barely.
He Niancheng’s brows creased slightly too, the dark glow in his eyes was now apparent, and he exuded a colder aura.
He was about to speak when he heard Gu Qingjiu speak up despite her embarrassment. “I was the one who liked the Chief Instructor. If I didn’t pursue him, I might not have a chance in the future.”
These words caused He Niancheng’s tensed body to relax slightly.
Looking hopelessly at the in love Gu Qingjiu, Qi Yuefeng knew that whatever she said would be futile.
She was once Gu Qingjiu’s age, so of course, she knew about their stubborn nature. Once girls at this age fall for someone, they do not heed anyone’s words.
Mainly, it depended on one’s temperament, and Qi Yuefeng knew about Gu Qingjiu’s.
Once her daughter had made up her mind on something, she wouldn’t heed their words, no matter how others tried to talk her out of it.
Just like her insistence on joining the military back then.
Honestly speaking, there wasn’t any fault to find a boyfriend like He Niancheng.
But Qi Yuefeng still didn’t feel very reassured. “I truly thank you on behalf of our family for your help before.”
Qi Yuefeng got to her feet and looked towards He Niancheng. “But I still don’t know, just what do you like about my daughter?”
Gu Qingjiu was speechless.
Why did it sound kind of funny?
Did she have no good traits that would cause the Chief Instructor to fall for her?
Next to them, Gu Qingmo laughed out loud, gloating over the situation. “Exactly. I also don’t know how my younger sister got this lucky!”
If it weren’t for the fact that she was ill, Gu Qingjiu would have rushed up to Gu Qingmo to bash him up.
Qi Yuefeng glared at her son for him to shut up.
“Auntie, what do you hope to hear from me? I can only say that I’m genuine with my feelings towards Qingjiu.”
Genuine with his feelings.
This answer was different from what she had expected, making Gu Qingjiu freeze.
Qi Yuefeng and Gu Qingmo also felt a bit weird.
How to put it?
But looking at the resolute glow in his eyes, Qi Yuefeng didn’t know what to reply to that.
She wasn’t an old-fashioned mother, but then again, she wasn’t so open-minded that she accepted everything her daughter did.
But regarding this matter of Gu Qingjiu dating, she wasn’t very opposed to it.
It was just that the person whom she was dating surprised her way too much.
He Niancheng didn’t at all look like someone a girl like Gu Qingjiu could handle.
Of course, she wasn’t so stupid to ask him if he was going to marry her daughter in the future.
It was too naive. Moreover, Qingjiu was still young. As a mother, she didn’t have to be so anxious about it.
