Gu Qingjiu felt a little amused.

She wouldve never expected that someone would belittle the Chief Instructor.

But then again, that was definitely because of what he had said to the old man earlier on.

It made it seem as if the Chief Instructor wasnt very good with his words.

Until the end, Gu Qingjiu did not know who that old man was.

She forced the question down. Since she knew her place, she dared not ask the Chief Instructor about it.

Moreover, she had no right to.

Gu Qingjiu had drawn lines for such situations.

She left the place with He Niancheng and they did not talk much along the way.

After all, this god-sent angel just saved her.

Your family doesnt wish for you to join the army?

While they walked, He Niancheng suddenly popped such a question at her.

Gu Qingjiu spent two seconds arranging her thoughts.

The Chief Instructor was asking her.

She was a little startled because he did not seem like the sort of person to be concerned about other peoples affairs.

When she recalled her parents attitude about her decision, she nodded. I guess so. My parents didnt really want me to come.

Including her elder brother.

If he did, he would have had a different attitude when he visited the other day.

But you dont like the army either.

This statement seemed to strike a chord in Gu Qingjiu after she had processed it.

She paused in her steps, but when she saw that He Niancheng didnt, she followed behind immediately.

But she had stopped speaking.

She did not bother asking something likeHow could you tell?either.

It was probably a little too obvious.

The Chief Instructor probably taught so many recruits that he could tell at a single glance if they werent passionate about it or not.

If you dont like it, you shouldnt have joined in the first place.

Gu Qingjiu initially thought the conversation would end there, but who knew He Niancheng would continue.

And his statement felt a little chilly.

As if he was specifically pointing it at her.

Gu Qingjiu thought for a while until she couldnt hold back. Chief Instructor, there are many things in life that I dont have a choice.

People like him were born with the innate want to control, so he would only have a part in controlling others. There wouldnt be too many situations where he did not have a choice, and naturally, he wouldnt understand Gu Qingjius predicament.

But hearing that statement, He Niancheng paused in his steps.

Seeing his silhouette pause, Gu Qingjiu stopped in her steps as well.

He Niancheng turned around and looked at her, his gorgeous eyes brewing in an intoxicating color. Gu Qingjiu realized then that if one carefully looked at his eyes, they would see the grey impurity mixing in those black orbs.

It made it look like a grey-colored gem.

Theres not just one solution in this world. There may be others which you cant see yet.

It was rare, but his statement sounded like a reminder for her.

Gu Qingjiu was speechless.

She suddenly felt as if the Chief Instructor had just stuffed her full of poisonous soup.

She smiled in resignation. Chief Instructor, of course I know theres more than one solution, but I have no skills. Thats why I have to choose the proper solution. Even if there were other chances, with my skills, I cant catch those.

The matter between her and the Yu family, she couldnt win without any power. What other choice did she have?

He Niancheng eyed Gu Qingjiu. Youre the first person I have encountered who could so proudly announce her lack of capabilities.

Gu Qingjiu was speechless.

Why did this supposedly proud moment end up being shattered like that?
