Chapter 421: Transferring Qin Huai Away

As Gu Qingjiu listened, the corners of her lips twitched. “How could that person say that?”

Putting aside the fact that she was already attached to the Chief Instructor, how could someone just try to force two completely unrelated person together?

“That’s right. Our Qingjiu has a boyfriend and he might even be more handsome than Yin Ruoyi. They don’t have to get together just because they both have good shooting grades.”

Gu Qian retorted as she scrunched her nose.

Gu Qingjiu thought the conversation was becoming awkward and decided to change the topic. “It’s almost noon. Shall we go for lunch?”

“Of course, let’s go. I’m hungry too.”

The three of them left together.

It could be because of the comments online, Gu Qingjiu felt that a lot of people were staring and pointing at her.

However, they were staring with admiration and exclamation.

Among the hushed whispers, Gu Qingjiu even heard someone call her the ‘G.o.ddess of the Shooting Department.’

“The sharpshooter of the year.”

“She’s really pretty.”

The comments were mostly like that.

Even Gu Qian and Chu Lian received a decent amount of attention.

Chu Lian sighed loudly. “It’s so stressful hanging out with a celebrity.”

Gu Qian giggled. “Shouldn’t you say that it’s stressful to be a celebrity instead?”

“What are you talking about? Let’s just go and have lunch.”

Gu Qingjiu didn’t enjoy being under the spotlight. The students in the military school wouldn’t crowd around or approach her and would merely stare at her from afar.

Together with Gu Qian and Chu Lian, she sat down and began to eat.

…

After the weekends, they resumed their regular training.

Although the previous shooting compet.i.tion generated some buzz, no one especially came up to Gu Qingjiu to look for trouble.

Nevertheless, Gu Qingjiu could still sense that something had changed.

Because Qin Huai had been transferred away.

After Lu Yimei and Qin Huai argued, the two of them wrote an apology letter and nothing else happened afterward.

It was shocking for Gu Qingjiu to find out that Qin Huai had been transferred away.

Nonetheless, he was simply transferred to be a professor to another specialization. The importance of that role was comparable to that of a commanding officer.

In other words, Qin Huai didn’t suffer any losses.

However, it was clear to anyone that the school had given in on Gu Qingjiu’s sake.

Regardless of how capable Lu Yimei was, she couldn’t transfer Qin Huai away with just an argument.

The school knew that Qin Huai wasn’t on good terms with Gu Qingjiu, yet couldn’t do anything to her. They naturally had no choice but to send Qin Huai away instead.

Gu Qingjiu agreed with this decision. She just didn’t like him at all.

Without the chances of b.u.mping into him, she wouldn’t feel annoyed.

This wasn’t the first time a commanding officer was transferred away because of clashes with students.

It was to Gu Qingjiu’s advantage that she had demonstrated her amazing skills during the shooting compet.i.tion.

Xiong Xuejian had already specially informed Gu Qingjiu that the superiors wanted her to practice in peace. They didn’t want her to be disturbed by any other matters.

This meant that Qin Huai was her main cause of the disturbance.

Gu Qingjiu understood this.

It was clear that the school greatly appreciated her.

The week’s training ended without any emergency training. Yu Bao’er invited Gu Qingjiu out to have fun.

On the premise that she was visiting her elder brother, Gu Qingjiu tried to apply for permission to leave the school from the newly transferred Commanding Officer.

Although it was quite a blatant lie, the Commanding Officer agreed without further probing.

Gu Qingjiu would only find out later that the Chief Instructor had already spoken to the Commanding Officer.

If she were to make a request, he had to approve immediately.

The favoritism was clear as day.

Gu Qingjiu just didn’t know it herself.
