When she got back to the gathering spot, Gu Qingjiu saw sour expressions on the members’ faces.
Most especially Pan Shiyuan, whose countenance was darker than dark.
He had thought that they would do better this time. Who knew they would rank at the bottom?
National Defense University (NDU) and Haihe Military University now knew what Gu Qingjiu was capable of, and they all had terrified looks in their eyes as they stared at Gu Qingjiu.
No doubt, it was Gu Qingjiu who had eliminated most players.
One could dismiss the previous occurrence as a fluke, but the improvements she showed this time further consolidated the fact that Gu Qingjiu had incredible capabilities in this area.
The other two schools that newly joined now learned of Gu Qingjiu’s intimidating prowess, and there were complex emotions in their hearts.
Especially since they would only be around over this period, yet they suffered such a great blow at the hands of Gu Qingjiu.
“Qingjiu.”
Seeing Gu Qingjiu return, Lu Yimei came up to her with a broad beam.
She patted Gu Qingjiu’s shoulder. “Not bad.”
Gu Qingjiu smiled and nodded. “Thank you, Commander.”
Upon hearing this, Pan Shiyuan was seething with anger. Gu Qingjiu did so well, and Lu Yimei only commented, ‘Not bad?‘
So annoying!
Recalling what he had said earlier, it felt like a slap in Pan Shiyuan’s face.
To think he even asked his members to cut them some slack!
They probably needed it more!
While Pan Shiyuan was puffing with anger in his heart, he faced Lu Yimei with an aggrieved expression.
“Yimei, why didn’t you tell me about this earlier?”
His members felt that it was simply embarrassing to have a commander like him.
To be questioning his ex-girlfriend after losing was the image of a resentful husband!
Lu Yimei rolled her eyes. “What could I have told you?”
Pan Shiyuan had looked so confident and presumptuous then. What could Lu Yimei have said?
Moreover, surely she couldn’t have said something like ‘Our Gu Qingjiu is super impressive, all of you watch out!’
Although it was a fact, it would be shameless of her to say it out loud like that.
Of course, Lu Yimei didn’t want to say anything.
Pan Shiyuan was furious.
Perhaps because the outcome was already final, the other commanders didn’t look upset.
This time, NDU didn’t rank bottom but managed to clinch the second spot.
Having accepted the fact that Gu Qingjiu was perversely talented, Commander Yang felt slightly better now.
This time, because of the two newly joined schools, everyone didn’t leave immediately but continued to stay the night.
When they got back to the dormitory at night, Gu Qingjiu and Lu Yixin both went back to the dormitory.
Naturally, Yan Hanqi slept together with them like the other night.
Lu Yimei had gone off to discuss matters with the other commanders and was nowhere to be seen.
“Qingjiu, shall I bathe first or do you want to go first?”
Lu Yixin asked Gu Qingjiu in the dormitory.
She didn’t ask Yan Hanqi.
She kept feeling that Yan Hanqi was kind of weird. Especially after losing the competition today, Lu Yixin sometimes felt her hair standing on end whenever she saw Yan Hanqi’s expression.
“You can go first. I’ll go later.”
After replying to Lu Yixin, Gu Qingjiu then recalled that Yan Hanqi from the other school was also in the same dormitory.
After all, since she was a guest, they shouldn’t ostracize her too severely.
Hence, Gu Qingjiu turned towards Yan Hanqi and asked, “Yan Hanqi Classmate, do you want to go in and take a shower first? Yixin and I can shower later.”
“I’m okay.”
Yan Hanqi curled her lips. Although her smile looked as vibrant as before, there seemed to be some other intent behind her smile.
“Senior eliminated me rather quickly today, so I didn’t use too much of my energy, and I also don’t feel hot. Seniors, you may shower first. It’s fine for me.”
