Chapter 160: You Have Any Complaints About Your Superior Coming Here?

The dumbfounded ones were Huo Yingcheng and Gu Qingjiu.

Walking in front and surrounded by a crowd, He Niancheng looked like the moon with a myriad of stars around him.

His perfectly chiseled face appeared as striking as ever even amidst the resplendent lights.

Exuding a powerful aura, he coldly looked towards where Gu Qingjiu was and was struck with surprise.

Running into her Chief Instructor in such a place made Gu Qingjiu feel awkward and sheepish for some reason.

She felt sheepish with the entire situation, so how much more with Yu Bao’er?

The latter was so startled that her soul nearly flew out of her body.

Huo Yingcheng and his party were walking en route to their respective rooms. But after seeing Gu Qingjiu and Yu Bao’er, they halted their pace and looked towards them.

Others, who felt perplexed, had stopped in their tracks as well and were looking towards these two girls.

Amidst the awkward atmosphere, it was Huo Yingcheng who spoke first. “Qingjiu, you’re really bold. You’re supposed to return to the troops in a few days’ time and you still came to such a place? Do you know that the rules prohibit recruits from coming to such places?”

Huo Yingcheng spoke in a quiet tone, and he didn’t sound pleased.

But when they looked at his eyes, they could see a smile in them.

He was clearly teasing them.

Gu Qingjiu felt alarmed at hearing this. There was such a rule in the troops?

But when she looked up at Huo Yingcheng’s gaze, she realized he was only teasing her.

Just as she was about to answer, she caught sight of the Chief Instructor’s gaze that looked even colder.

Gu Qingjiu felt her heart stop.

On the other hand, feeling bold because she was not in the troops already, Yu Bao’er directly answered, “Commander Huo, we’re not doing anything. We just came here to sing, to feel the festive mood. Moreover, aren’t you guys in such a place, too?”

Yu Bao’er asking them all so suddenly caused Huo Yingcheng’s gaze to sweep towards Yu Bao’er.

He deliberately teased her. “La.s.s, you have quite a sharp tongue, huh? But do you have any complaints about your superior coming here?”

Yu Bao’er exclaimed, “How would I have the guts?!”

Amused with Yu Bao’er’s reply, Huo Yingcheng waved a hand. “Forget it. I was just kidding with you guys. Qingjiu, remember to go back early.”

Hearing Commander Huo’s words of concern, Gu Qingjiu finally nodded and said something. “Commander Huo, don’t worry. My brother is here as well. He’s in the adjacent room. We’re just out for a gathering.”

Hearing this, Huo Yingcheng nodded.

His group continued on their way.

He Niancheng said nothing throughout.

As he pa.s.sed by Gu Qingjiu, he retracted his oppressive gaze that he directed towards her.

Gu Qingjiu felt relieved that he didn’t say anything.

It was only after they went up the spiral staircase that Yu Bao’er stuck out her tongue.

“Gave me such a shock. I didn’t expect we’d run into Commander Huo and Chief Instructor in a place like this. Didn’t you say that Commander Huo went away because he had to handle something? He’s back again?”

When they left, Commander Huo had yet to return.

Gu Qingjiu replied quietly, “Perhaps he came back today. Let’s not bother ourselves with this. It’s fine if they won’t blab. Didn’t you want to drink fruit wine? You still want it?”

“Of course!” Yu Bao’er quickly pushed Gu Qingjiu towards the counter. “Let’s hurry. If someone opens the door to their suite and someone came out suddenly, we’re going to get caught.”

Gu Qingjiu nodded helplessly and followed Yu Bao’er.
