Chapter 219 - Chief Instructor, Can I Ask You A Bold Question
What was she doing here?
Just hearing the difference in the words he used, Gu Qingjiu felt that the Chief Instructor was a lot gentler than before.
Before, he would always directly ask what business she had…
In an impolite manner.
Unlike now, where he was just a step away from having an amicable tone.
Gu Qingjiu walked in front of Nan Yingxuan and replied to He Niancheng’s question, “Chief Instructor, I will be going to the advanced training camp, so I’m here to say my farewells to you two.”
“Oh!” Nan Yingxuan’s exclaimed with raised brows. “Advanced training camp, I almost forgot about it. Huo Yingcheng mentioned it the other time. Will you be going now? Congratulations.”
He had a courteous smile, making Gu Qingjiu smile in response. “Thank you, Doctor Nan.”
He Niancheng sat up from the bed. He didn’t offer any words of congratulations nor did he say anything cold.
Gu Qingjiu looked at him. While Nan Yingxuan’s gaze, on the other hand, shifted between the two of them as if thinking of something. “Commander He, I remember you saying that you’re transferring over to become their training instructor?”
He Niancheng’s cold gaze sharply shot towards Nan Yingxuan. “I remember that I didn’t tell you about it.”
But Gu Qingjiu had already heard the weirdness to it. She immediately asked, “What training instructor? Isn’t the Chief Instructor already an instructor?”
Nan Yingxuan smiled slightly, opting not to reply.
Gu Qingjiu’s gaze turned to He Niancheng.
He Niancheng offered her a steady gaze. “It’s nothing. Go back to your instructor-in-charge now.”
But Gu Qingjiu was a little unwilling to do so.
Doctor Nan’s sudden mention caused her to have some speculations of her own.
She stepped in front of He Niancheng. “Chief Instructor, are you being transferred to the advanced training camp?”
Because it was too sudden, her voice revealed her pleasant surprise.
He Niancheng looked at her eyes that were sparkling. It was as if she was excitedly asking him like an adorable kitten with oozing liveliness.
“I mentioned it.” He did not confirm nor deny.
Nan Yingxuan’s gaze could already be described as that of shock.
Gu Qingjiu could tell the pause in He Niancheng’s words. “Mentioned?”
She was a little disappointed since she could already guess the conclusion.
He Niancheng replied, “I’m not suited to go there. Someone from the air force will go there instead.”
Gu Qingjiu didn’t know how to reply. It puzzled Nan Yingxuan. “Advanced training camp?”
He Niancheng’s deep gaze turned to him, and he also made a sound of acknowledgment.
Gu Qingjiu felt that this discussion was a little too personal. But what were they discussing?
“What you’re trying to say is that someone from the air force snatched your spot to go over?”
Nan Yingxuan looked at He Niancheng in interest, trying to decipher what he meant.
Else, he wouldn’t believe that someone from the air force was to arrive.
He Niancheng frowned. “It was arranged a long time ago. I only mentioned it later on.”
Gu Qingjiu finally understood.
It probably meant that the Chief Instructor mentioned his intent to be transferred to the advance training camp, but the higher-ups did not agree and sent someone from the air force instead.
She was thinking about it, but she suddenly remembered that she had to leave soon. But since last night, she had wanted to ask the Chief Instructor something.
She opted to send a text, but it wouldn’t look serious enough.
Mustering the courage, Gu Qingjiu held back a little before asking, “Chief Instructor, can I ask you a bold question?”
