Chapter 273 Don’t You Like It?
Shang Qing and his roommates began to focus on eating, became quiet again, and stopped fighting.
Thinking of the short training session that took place this morning, Fifth Sister Lan Yao couldn't help but put down her chopsticks. With a look of infatuation on her face, she couldn't help but exclaim, "Oh, I have to say, that boy at today's opening ceremony was so handsome."
Just because Lan Yao said that, Mo Beibei nodded vigorously, wishing she could get a concussion. "That's right, that's right. Oh my god, he's so handsome. I've never seen a boy so good-looking. He's just my dream."
"Hey! Beibei, you're not in love with me, are you?" Cang Yan teased with a gossipy look on his face.
When the girl brought the topic back to Ji Xun, Shang Qing's ears flushed, and her heart sank. Now, after hearing Cang Yan's gossipy and teasing words, her watery eyes were fixed on Mo Beibei. However, she didn't realize the strength in her fingers gripping the chopsticks.
Mo Beibei noticed that several girls were looking at her. She laughed heartily, ruffling her hair awkwardly with her hands, and said self-deprecatingly, "How could such a god-like figure possibly be interested in me?"
Cang Yan took a bite of the food and raised an eyebrow: "What you said shows that you still like it."
"Hey, hey! She's so pretty, don't you like her?" Mo Beibei wrinkled her nose, put her arm around Shang Qing's shoulders, and pouted her lips in intimacy as she retorted, "I like all beautiful things. I really like the angelic looks of our Qingqing."
When the girls in the dormitory heard Mo Beibei's confident words, they had to admit that what she said was true. Today, when they saw Ji Xun on the stage, they were also infatuated with him.
"But that handsome guy kept looking at our Qingqing while he was speaking." Mo Beibei raised her head and boasted proudly. It seemed as if the handsome guy was staring at her.
"Haha, I saw it too. I was wondering why he was looking at us. Later, I found that his eyes seemed to be fixed on Qingqing." Cang Yan immediately became interested and quickly took over the conversation, explaining what he saw.
"Yeah. The handsome guy has good taste and he set his eyes on the most beautiful one at first sight." Yang Meiru covered her mouth and laughed happily, winking and teasing at the other girls.
"Qingqing, please think about it. This handsome man and beautiful woman are such a perfect match." Mo Beibei, who was hugging Shang Qing's shoulders, rubbed Shang Qing, looking as cute as a kitten.
Shang Qing felt a little nervous when she heard the girls talking about her. She was about to explain when Che Chenchen's loud voice interrupted her.
"Wow, our instructors are here to eat." Hearing Che Chenchen's voice, everyone looked in that direction and saw a team of instructors walking into the cafeteria in neat steps.
Wang Yang looked like a fangirl, holding her face in her hands and exclaiming, "Oh, our instructor is so handsome."
"Yeah, I've seen it, ours is the most handsome." Second sister Wang Yang swallowed the food in her mouth and nodded excitedly to show her agreement.
Several girls nodded in agreement. Girls' gossip should not be underestimated.
Lan Yao looked at Shang Qing, who was in a daze and didn't respond to them, and asked, "Qingqing, what do you think? Is our instructor the most handsome?"
Shang Qing raised her head, the embarrassment on her cheeks from the previous topic disappearing. She looked into the seven pairs of curious eyes and said with a smile, "Chinese soldiers are, of course, the most handsome!"
From Shang Qing's perspective, her brother was the most handsome of the boys. Of course, these were two different concepts. If the girls hadn't asked her, she would have assumed that Ji Xun was the most handsome of the boys. But now that they had asked her, this was the most truthful answer.
This one sentence was a revelation, and the girls all smiled excitedly in agreement: "Qingqing, you're right. Chinese soldiers are the most handsome!"
It's no wonder Shang Qing answered like that. First of all, Shang Qing has always admired and worshipped soldiers the most. In her heart, Chinese soldiers are the most handsome. Back then, she particularly liked being a soldier. Every time she saw someone in military uniform, she would want to salute them, and her heart would beat faster with excitement. That heartfelt admiration always seemed to overflow from her chest. After all, she was taught since she was a child that Chinese soldiers are sacred and great. If it weren't for their sacrifices and contributions, how could we, as people in the new era, live such a happy and safe life?
Ji Xun had been paying attention to Shang Qing's table. He listened intently to the girls' conversation, not feeling awkward at all.
In high school, he often went to Shang Qing's class. When they ate together, Xue Xuelin, Su Zhaozhao, and Shang Qing were gossiping experts. He would listen while eating, and sometimes even act as a speech stopper.
But today, he was nervous. When several girls mentioned his name and asked Shang Qing to consider him as a boyfriend, his heart felt like it was being pulled in knots, and he couldn't feel at ease.
One has to admit that Ji Xun was both afraid and looking forward to it.
What she feared was that Shang Qing would deny it without hesitation, explaining that they had misunderstood. He and she were just ordinary siblings. What she expected was that Shang Qing would acquiesce. But how could this be possible?
Ji Xun knew without hesitation that Shang Qing would never agree to this. After all, Shang Qing had always treated him as a younger brother.
But by such a coincidence, when Ji Xun saw Shang Qing about to open her mouth to explain, her classmates pointed to the instructor team, drawing everyone's attention there. This also successfully prevented Shang Qing from revealing their relationship.
Ji Xun had never been so excited as he was right now. Stars practically shone in his eyes as he gazed at the instructors. He felt as though the instructors who had appeared at that moment were imbued with a divine aura. They were his spiritual saviors.
As for whether Shang Qing would explain herself to the other girls later, Ji Xun hadn't given it a second thought, much less any reflection. Perhaps his ability to deceive himself had always been this way. Unless he heard it with his own ears, it didn't count.
Ben was nervous, but when he heard Shang Qing's words, the corners of his mouth curled up in a smile of appreciation and pride. His sister was truly outstanding. But he had no idea that in her heart, he was irreplaceably handsome.
After lunch, the freshmen returned to the dormitory for a nap.
Mo Beibei was lying on the bed, legs crossed, looking contented: "The training wasn't that difficult. I thought it was going to be terrifying."
"Not difficult? Beibei, are you sure?" Fourth sister Cang Yan was so scared that she sat up and looked at Mo Beibei with an incredible expression and asked, "Haven't you been scared by being scolded before?"
