Commander Huo.

Gu Qingjiu got to her feet right away. She was a bit surprised to see Huo Yingcheng standing outside the door. Havent you two left?

Your Chief Instructor sent me to check. Do you need any help?

Even with Gu Hongs shocked gaze, Huo Yingcheng greeted him with a smile on his face. Hello, Uncle.

Gu Qingjiu hurriedly introduced her parents. Dad, Mom, I forgot to tell you. This is Commander Huo, and the Chief Instructor is downstairs. They were the ones who sent me back.

Oh

Gu Hong felt astonished. Regarding military matters, he had no further knowledge about it.

But his daughter was just a fresh recruit. How did she manage to become so chummy with these commanders?

Moreover, this commander looked a tad young.

And he knew that commanders in the military held some authority.

To be promoted to a commander at such a young age, this young man had a bright future ahead of him!

Gu Hong habitually assessed the person before him.

Gu Qingjiu walked to Huo Yingcheng and was a little confused. Commander Huo, I dont need any help here

Huo Yingcheng coughed. I just came up to look and also to check with you. When are you going back to the military? Were going back at night.

Actually, they had already found out about the Yu family.

With their influence, it took no time for them to check on such matters, which werent much of a secret, to begin with.

Hence, Huo Yingcheng naturally knew the difficulties the Gu family was about to face.

Also, he was aware that the Yu family needed Gu Qingjiu back in their family to enter an alliance marriage.

The truth was, he came up to give Gu Qingjiu a heads up about it.

With the Gu familys conditions, it was highly unlikely for them to win a fight against the Yu family.

But with him around, how could he bear to see Qingjiu suffer a grievance?

And yet, these three people of the Gu family clearly had no idea.

They thought that the Yu family was here to look for Gu Qingjiu in goodwill, but they had no idea why the Yu family wanted Gu Qingjiu to return so desperately.

Then again, what Huo Yingcheng didnt know was, Gu Qingjiu was reborn. Of course, she knew what she was about to face.

Both parties had questions in their hearts. After hearing Huo Yingchengs words, Gu Qingjiu thought for a moment. I probably need two days. Commander, help me tell the Chief Instructor this. Ill stay at home for two days and return once I settle things.

Thats fine. But tomorrow, Ill be making a trip back to my old place. This time Ill be away for a week. If you need help, contact the Chief Instructor.

Gu Qingjiu didnt detect any other meaning in Huo Yingchengs words. She simply nodded and said, Thanks, Commander Huo!

After that, Commander Huo looked into the house and said with a smile, Bye, Uncle, Auntie!

After Huo Yingcheng had gone away, Gu Hong suddenly asked, Your boyfriend?

Gu Qingjiu was speechless.

Like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, she immediately turned around. Dad, how could that be? Hes my commander. Dont let your thoughts run wild!

Seeing Gu Qingjiu anxiously deny it, Gu Hong smiled. Its just a casual question.

Next to him, Qi Yuefeng gazed at him with reproach in her eyes. But she then said with a smile, Dont talk nonsense. Dont upset our daughter.

Clearly, there wasnt anything unusual between Gu Qingjiu and that commander.

Only

With Huo Yingchengs interruption, the atmosphere in the house became more relaxed.

Gu Qingjiu ran to the window in the living room and looked down, and she saw that the car had yet to leave.

At that moment, Huo Yingcheng was pulling the car door to the drivers seat open, and he then boarded afterward.

He Niancheng was standing outside, and after Huo Yincheng went in, he boarded the car as well.

Sensing Gu Qingjius stare at him, He Nianchengs sharp and deep eyes turned to look at her.

His eyes met right with Gu Qingjius.

Recalling how she had rudely retorted back at the Chief Instructor, Gu Qingjiu waved goodbye at the Chief Instructor with a vibrant smile to show him that they were still on friendly terms.
