In the foggy weather, the truck, covered with military-green-colored leather, exuded a vague and different grandeur.
Seeing that military vehicle, a weird feeling suddenly rose in Gu Qingjiu’s heart.
It was as if she had seen a bright future waiting for her.
She slightly suppressed her agitated emotions as she took out her school badge and entered the school.
In her previous life, Gu Qingjiu left school and never returned. That was why she didn’t know how the selection process went.
Just as she was contemplating whether she should go to class to ask her form teacher about it, her phone loudly vibrated.
She took it out to glance at it. It was a message from an unknown number: ‘Come to the experiment building. The military personnel is here.’
Although Gu Qingjiu never saved that number, she clearly remembered that it was Zhong Xiaoxiao’s phone number.
Never expecting Zhong Xiaoxiao to be so nice to send her a message, Gu Qingjiu felt her heart tighten a little.
Following Zhong Xiaoxiao’s message, Gu Qingjiu walked towards the school’s experiment building. Indeed, she saw several soldiers standing in the newly built, white building. They were all wearing camouflage uniforms, standing straight and tall as their expressions were stern and serious. They exuded a jadedness and strictness that soldiers had. It made others have the urge to follow them just by looking at them.
It was like they would straighten their backs as they walked subconsciously.
Several young soldiers were standing by the entrance of the experiment building while small groups of students went into the building by the stairway they were guarding. Gu Qingjiu felt a little hesitant. After stopping, she sent a message to Zhong Xiaoxiao.
‘Class Leader, do I just go into the building and go up?’
After about a minute, Zhong Xiaoxiao replied: ‘Yes. We’ve already given your Splitting form to the military personnel. You just have to go to the third floor, enter the classroom and give them your information.’
Zhong Xiaoxiao’s explanation was rather detailed.
Gu Qingjiu instantly felt a good impression of her grow in her heart.
She replied, ‘Thank you, Class Leader.’
She was a straight-forward person. As long as they helped her, she would remember them forever. Zhong Xiaoxiao’s action may seem like she was just doing it out of convenience, but if it were others, they might not even help Gu Qingjiu.
Gu Qingjiu went up the stairway. Indeed, the soldiers that were guarding the stairway didn’t stop her. She went up to the third floor and saw a long queue. The place was extremely crowded, as the queue lined all the way to the classroom door in the corner.
Her heart trembled. She didn’t expect so many people would choose to enter the military.
People who were queuing were mostly from other classes and there were a few dozen of them.
There were a few who knew Gu Qingjiu, but none of them spoke to her as they chatted and laughed amongst themselves. Gu Qingjiu didn’t care. She looked down and stared at the view outside of the building. She slowly started to recall what happened in the past.
When people were lonely and bored, it seemed like they would think about many bad things.
Unavoidably, Gu Qingjiu thought about Su Lingche again.
That warm and gentle boy who appeared by her side and silently gave her concern when she had returned to the Yu family and was looked down upon by everyone.
She could still remember Su Lingche’s voice and smile. She recalled his handsome face and his soft mutters by her ear. Thinking about it now, she actually felt that the voice ringing in her ears sounded extremely gentle, so much so that she could get drunk with it.
However, the world is ever changing. When he chose to not believe in her, watched her be framed by the Yu family and be jailed, and even got married to Yu Shiwei, the love Gu Qingjiu once had for this man had turned into absolute hatred.
As she sunk into her memories and subconsciously moved forward with the queue, the number of persons queuing in front of her decreased and decreased. After some time, a bright and loud voice rang by Gu Qingjiu’s ear. “Next!”
