Meet him?

Gu Qingjiu was confused.

She didnt know what was going on.

It felt like it was a different venue from the last time.

If not for this text message, Gu Qingjiu would have nearly forgotten that she was currently a mysterious Ninth Department member.

Tomorrow at 9 pm

Tsk, she wondered when she would get to come back after she left for the place.

Gu Qingjiu memorized the contents of this message, then began preparation for tomorrows training.

At night, Qi Xiaoran returned to the dormitory.

After a peaceful night, the name list that Chu Lian mentioned came out the next day.

The instructor told them during class time that they would place the list on the schools bulletin.

They would also broadcast the result on the electronic screen.

Gu Qingjiu looked and saw that Chu Lian and Qi Xiaorans names were on that list.

That meant that these two were confirmed to be signaller soldiers and would be deployed to the border in the future.

At noon, Gu Qingjiu stayed in the Shooting Department and didnt go back to the dormitory, so she didnt get to ask Chu Lian.

After lunch, Gu Qingjiu returned to the dormitory.

At the time, Chu Lian and Gu Qian were both around, and Qi Xiaoran was also washing her clothes then.

Seems like its final that Ill be deployed to the border in the future. The thought of it makes me feel a sense of anticipation.

Chu Lian appeared thrilled. The minute she finished speaking, Gu Qian slapped her on her back. Why are you so damn lucky!

What do you mean by damn lucky? I have the capabilities, to begin with, okay!

Chu Lian was annoyed.

Gu Qian pointed at Qi Xiaoran. Look at how pleased you are with yourself and how calm Xiaoran is.

Of course, Im pleased with myself. Im not like XiaoranXiaoran is predetermined to be one. But in the future, Ill be of the same specialization as Xiaoran. Right, Xiaoran?

Xiaoran turned her head sideways, something she rarely does, when she heard her name, and she responded with a bland mm.

Seeing this, Gu Qingjiu couldnt help but say, But the borders occupy a vast area. I wonder where they will allocate you guys to.

They only mentioned that their deployment would be at the border, but they never specified which border.

No need to worry about that for now. In any case, its just those few places. Well find out when the time comes.

Chu Lian waved a hand, still looking excited. To celebrate Xiaoran and me getting selected, lets go out for dinner on Friday night! I feel that the kimchi fish in the restaurant outside of school tastes pretty good.

Gu Qingjiu was hesitant. Lets see what happens. Because I need to go to train with my teacher for the weekend, so I dont know if I have to leave on Friday.

Thats okay. If you really cant make it, we can go on Sunday when you come back.

Gu Qingjiu nodded. Sure!

Qi Xiaoran turned her head over as well. I cant guarantee I wont have anything on the weekend.

Just like Gu Qingjiu, her schedule was unpredictable.

She couldnt guarantee that something wouldnt arise suddenly.

Chu Lian could understand that, so she didnt force her. That means youll come with us if youre free?

That was an improvement.

Only

In the past, Qi Xiaoran made it obvious she didnt wish to associate with others.

Even Chu Lian wasnt much fond of speaking with Qi Xiaoran.

But now, Qi Xiaoran was slowly integrating with the rest.

Perhaps because they had been dorm mates for quite some time now, and no conflict arose between them.

So, she was gradually letting down her guard.

Qi Xiaoran hesitated a little before nodding. Alright, if I have nothing on, Ill go.

Seeing Qi Xiaoran agree to it, Gu Qingjiu raised her brows, slightly surprised.
