“Mm?”
He Niancheng didn’t deny it when asked. “Mm, I’m from Penalan.”
“Penalan?”
It shocked Gu Qingmo. “That’s a great place.”
Most importantly, citizens of Penalan received extremely good benefits.
It was also one of China’s biggest trading partners.
“The company where I’m at has business with several companies in Penalan. Perhaps because there are quite a lot of Chinese in Penalan, it seems rather easy getting along with them.”
“I heard from Qingjiu that you’re interning at a company right now. Which brands in Penalan with whom your company does business?”
He Niancheng suddenly asked this, and Gu Qingmo gave him the names of those companies with little thought.
Following that, he changed the topic. “Back then, I also considered entering the military. But after I thought about it, I wouldn’t be able to experience a rich and vibrant life if I serve in the military. I thought that with my sister’s personality, she would prefer the city. Who knew she insisted on entering the military?”
Upon hearing this, a dark glow flickered in He Niancheng’s eyes. “I’m very interested in hearing about Qingjiu’s life in the past. Do you have the time to tell me more about it?”
Of course, he had already checked Gu Qingjiu’s detailed information, but there was some stuff left out of his findings.
Surely, there couldn’t have been a camera installed in Gu Qingjiu’s home over the last ten years?
Subsequent information deviated too greatly from her past. Hence, He Niancheng was very keen to hear more about Gu Qingjiu’s past.
Now that he had this chance, of course, he seized it and asked.
“Sure. I can tell you about it now.”
Gu Qingmo didn’t at all hesitate in betraying his younger sister, spilling out all the stuff that might make Gu Qingjiu want to fall out with him should she be present. “When my younger sister was little, she was an exquisite little fairy. But I have no idea why, as she entered junior high, she became more and more ugly…”
…
After spending a morning in the hospital, Gu Qingjiu more or less recovered from her flu after the IV drip.
Her head no longer ached as badly.
Qi Yuefeng took care of her in the hospital for an entire morning. Nearing noon, a nurse came by to change the medicine for her. She said that Gu Qingjiu was done with the IV drip for the day.
But she had to continue tomorrow, for this viral flu required at least three days’ IV drip in the hospital.
Lest it might relapse subsequently.
So, even though Gu Qingjiu felt fine, she couldn’t leave the hospital.
As for school, naturally, she applied for leave.
By noon, the students in her specialization and the shooting department more or less also found out about her falling ill.
However, some news also spread in school…
And that was the Chief Instructor of the first-year students heading to the hospital to accompany Gu Qingjiu.
The military hospital was the subsidiary hospital of the National Military University of China (NMUC).
Because of the many kin and soldiers that would visit the hospital, including students from NMUC, they started spreading this news when they saw this situation.
Hence, when Lu Yimei and the rest learned of Gu Qingjiu falling sick, they also learned of another shocking piece of news at the same time.
“You’re saying Qingjiu’s boyfriend is the first-year students’ Chief Instructor? That mixed-blood instructor He Niancheng?”
When Lu Yixin and Zhu Yuan came back with this information, she looked so shocked it was like her eyeballs were going to pop out.
“Yeah. My friend interning at the hospital saw with his own eyes. The Chief Instructor accompanied Qingjiu in her ward. Because the Chief Instructor is so handsome, he had an especially deep impression of the incident. He just texted me about it…”
