67: 037 The Beaten Ning Jiu 67: 037 The Beaten Ning Jiu Gu Xiaoxi returned to the team, her mind still filled with Yi Chentian’s smile, which inexplicably made her feel very warm.
However, since then, she hadn’t received any ssage from Yi Chentian for a month.
Forget about a big al, not even a text ssage.
By this ti, most of the recruit training was behind them, entering the final performance assessnt.
The training for the new recruits posed no challenge for Gu Xiaoxi.
Without a doubt, she ranked among the top in all subjects.
And with her help, the average score of the ninth squad was also far ahead.
Everyone was waiting to be assigned to their respective companies, so compared to the intense training before, it was much more relaxed.
After breakfast that day, the company commander ca and told everyone that the apple trees the unit had planted were now laden with fruit.
He asked everyone to prepare to go up the mountain to help pick apples.
All the girls in the squad were excited, and although picking apples was laborious, it was a welco change from the monotonous training and felt like a leisurely break.
The earth on the back hill was fertile, and the apple trees planted by the military themselves were heavy with fruit, hanging from the branches.
Hundreds of people set out together, carrying baskets, starting from the top of the mountain to pick apples.
Qin Chu, carrying a basket, looked at Gu Xiaoxi and felt that this girl had suddenly beco much quieter.
“Gu Xiaoxi, are you heartbroken?”
i Su imdiately perked up her ears to listen and couldn’t help interjecting, “I heard a handso guy ca looking for you last ti, was it him?”
Gu Xiaoxi glanced at them sideways, “Less gossip!
Get on with picking apples.”
As to whether it counted as heartbreak, she herself didn’t know.
Maybe the romance hadn’t even begun, so during this ti, she couldn’t be certain whether Yi Chentian was playing hard to get or if it had truly ended.
There was definitely a sense of loss!
“Xiao Xi, I want to be assigned to the sa place as you!” Qin Chu placed a large apple into the basket, his gaze intense.
Gu Xiaoxi turned around and sighed.
“We’ll know the results tomorrow.”
“Qin Chu, stop dreaming…
We’re way behind her, we definitely won’t be in the sa company,” i Su said.
Qin Chu took a bite of an apple and exhaled heavily, “True that!”
“Maybe we’ll have a chance to see each other again in the future!” Gu Xiaoxi turned and smiled, “There’s a selection for special forces every year, so everyone, keep it up!”
As her words fell, everyone’s eyes lit up.
Qin Chu and i Su exchanged a glance, “Hahaha!
Maybe we can et again!”
They were busy picking apples all day and were utterly exhausted by the evening.
To Gu Xiaoxi’s surprise, Ning Jiu ca to find her, saying that Yi Chentian had co to see her.
Gu Xiaoxi took a shower and changed into clean clothes before going to the rest room.
In the rest room.
Yi Chentian stood in front of the window, holding a lunch box, his silhouette tall and straight, so quiet as if he had blended into the night.
When he saw Gu Xiaoxi enter the room, he imdiately turned around, a smile appearing on his face, “You’re here.
I’m sorry I haven’t co to see you for a month.
This is for you.”
Gu Xiaoxi raised her eyebrows, her bright eyes narrowing slightly, sensing the strain in his voice.
“So, what have you been busy with lately?”
Yi Chentian’s silhouette stiffened, clearly feeling her anger.
For the past month, he truly hadn’t sent her even a ssage.
Because…
Yi Chentian bit his lip, hiding the pain in his eyes, his handso face filled with embarrassnt, the atmosphere froze at that mont, and he didn’t even dare to et Gu Xiaoxi’s eyes.
“I’m sorry!
This is the last ti I’m making food for you.
Xiao Xi, I can’t co to see you anymore.” Yi Chentian clenched his teeth, feeling suffocated inside.
Recalling his conversation with Quan Shaoqing, he couldn’t help but complete his painful words.
Gu Xiaoxi pulled up a stool, sat down on it, and offered a slight smile, though her tone was through clenched teeth, “You’re joking with , right?
Yi Chentian, you’re tough!
Explain yourself clearly, and we can still be friends!
Otherwise, get lost now, and from today on, we’re enemies!”
She had never been played with in her life, especially not in matters of the heart.
This bastard!
Deceiving her was a serious taboo.
Yi Chentian felt his muscles tense, his throat as if sothing was stuck in it.
After a mont, he placed the lunchbox on the table, “I’m sorry!
I should leave now.”
“Hold on!” Gu Xiaoxi crossed her arms, lifted her delicate features with a sneer, “Take your stuff and go.
Include the cost of the previous al as well.
I don’t like owing favors to anyone.”
Gu Xiaoxi took out several hundred-yuan notes from her pocket, slapped them onto the side of the lunchbox, then stood up, hands coldly in her pockets, and strode out of the break room.
Outside, the silver moon hung high.
Gu Xiaoxi stood in the training field, looking up at the sky!
She thought, the word ‘unlucky’ doesn’t suit matters of the heart.
Dammit!
But on her, it was incredibly apt.
Full of confidence to start a relationship, yet it ended before it even began.
How upsetting!
“Yo!
Girl, what’s up with you!
What delicious thing did Yi Chentian bring for you just now?” Ning Jiu, with his baby face, laughed heartily.
The mont Gu Xiaoxi heard Ning Jiu ntion Yi Chentian, she got angry.
She placed her hands on her hips, turning her head to look at Ning Jiu, “Platoon Leader, I hear you’re one of the best at combat among the instructors.
How about we spar a bit!”
“Sure!” Ning Jiu laughed, giggling.
He had wanted to see Gu Xiaoxi’s true skills anyways.
Gu Xiaoxi smirked, rolled up her sleeves, and lunged at Ning Jiu.
Ning Jiu couldn’t dodge in ti and took a punch right in the eye from Gu Xiaoxi, imdiately sporting a panda eye.
Ning Jiu was shocked and speechless; not only was Gu Xiaoxi for real, but her speed was incredibly fast!
The next instant, he dared not daydream any longer and quickly responded with his own moves.
…
The next day, when Ning Jiu showed up in front of the lined-up troops with two panda eyes, everyone couldn’t help but snicker.
Especially Shao Changfeng, who couldn’t resist teasing, “Ning Jiu, you must have been up to no good last night!
You got beaten up so badly!”
Ning Jiu glared fiercely at Gu Xiaoxi in the ranks, that maniac!
She didn’t hold back at all, and the worst thing was, she left him unable to fight back.
It was only now he realized too late that he had let Gu Xiaoxi use him as a punching bag!
It was an unjust beating!
He also felt humiliated; his fighting technique had lost to Gu Xiaoxi…
He would rather die of laughter than admit he was beaten by Gu Xiaoxi.
“Report to Platoon Leader Shao, I saw it last night.
Platoon Leader Ning was beaten by Gu Xiaoxi.”
Soone from the ranks called out.
Suddenly, hundreds of people burst into laughter.
Ning Jiu: “…”
His face turned red, wishing he could find a hole to crawl into!
Just then, the colonel’s whistle blew.
Because today, they were going to start being assigned to companies, and they were about to transfer to a new camp, to begin their new military life.
