Chapter 24 Old Friend
◎It seems like I’m the last one in the world to know this news.◎
"Thank you." Qin Shu took the flowers after hearing this. "Wait a moment, I'll put the flowers away and come out right away."
"Yeah." Xu Wen nodded.
Qin Shu hurried back home with the flowers, placed the bouquet in the most conspicuous place in the entrance, and then left the house again.
I have to say, because of this bouquet of flowers, Qin Shu's mood suddenly became better. At least she didn't feel so resistant to going to school again after a long absence.
It was not until she sat on the hovercraft that Qin Shu took out the terminal and wanted to send a thank you to Lu Yishen, but she didn't expect that Lu Yishen had sent her a message in advance.
The message was simple: "Hope you like it."
The corners of Qin Shu's lips curled up. She really liked it, but not just the bouquet of flowers. She liked the feeling of having someone keep all the important things and days of your life in mind.
"I love it, thank you."
Lu Yishen must have been busy again, and did not reply in time this time.
…
Soon Zhou Yin parked the car steadily outside the gate of Sigma First University. Because there were many hover cars passing by, low-key black vehicles like theirs were not so conspicuous.
Xu Wen handed Qin Shu her bag and confirmed again, "Do you really not need us to accompany you in?"
"Thank you, it's really not necessary." Qin Shu was a little amused and helpless about Xu Wen and the others' overprotection. She was not a kindergarten kid going to school for the first time and still needed someone to accompany her.
"Well, be careful and feel free to ask the teacher if you have any questions."
Looking for a teacher?
"Okay." Qin Shu felt that this instruction was a bit strange, but she didn't think much about it. She waved to Zhou Yin and Xu Wen, got out of the car quickly, and then walked towards the school.
During this period, although some people would be stunned for a moment when they saw her, or pat others around them to signal them to look over, most people just watched from afar and had no intention of disturbing her. As for the stares and discussions, Qin Shu, as a public figure, had long been accustomed to them and did not take it seriously.
"Qin Shu, come here." Someone waved happily when he saw her.
The person who came was none other than Yue Shanshan, whom Qin Shu had met before.
"Senior Yue." Qin Shu walked over quickly, and was directly fed a cup of energy drink by Yue Shanshan.
"It's your treat. And just call me Yue Shanshan. No need to be so polite." Yue Shanshan smiled energetically.
"good."
"By the way, you haven't been to school for a long time, right? The school has changed a lot now. Come on, I'll take you to your college." Yue Shanshan said as she led Qin Shu forward.
Perhaps because Yue Shanshan was with her, Qin Shu was not as eye-catching as she was just now when she was alone.
However, just as the two of them were chatting and laughing, a delicate and weak voice suddenly sounded from behind them: "Senior Yue."
This voice...
Qin Shu thought that after going through so much, she should have forgotten this voice long ago, but her body memory told her that no matter when, as long as she heard this voice, she would remember what happened at that time all over again.
Whether it was the scene of the kitten rubbing against her calf affectionately and asking her in a sweet voice for food, or the scene of the kitten lying in her desk with its body stiff and bloody, all the things she thought she had forgotten flashed through her mind like a kaleidoscope.
The smile on Qin Shu's face suddenly faded, but before she could turn around to see if the person behind her was the one she remembered, Yue Shanshan cursed "bad luck" unhappily, then pulled Qin Shu and trotted forward quickly.
As a result, they had only taken two steps when the delicate voice behind them suddenly rang out again, "Senior Yue, please let me go. I will return Senior Lin to you."
Qin Shu didn't look back, but she heard some of her classmates around her exclaim in surprise, "That girl suddenly knelt down. What happened?"
"Hey, wasn't it Yue Shanshan who was called by her?"
"Ah, take a closer look, isn't that the girl from the art school next door who stole Senior Yue's boyfriend?"
Although the students were talking about it, only a few of them actually gathered around to eat the melon. Many of them just took a look and then left in a hurry, as if they had something urgent to do.
"Yue Shanshan!!!" At this moment, a male voice suddenly rang out, accompanied by hurried footsteps. A hand suddenly rested on Yue Shanshan's shoulder, completely disregarding Yue Shanshan's wishes, and tried to forcibly turn her over.
"Hiss." Yue Shanshan took a breath in pain.
Qin Shu had no idea who was chasing her, but she could see Yue Shanshan's face suddenly turned pale and her eyes red.
So, Qin Shu took action.
She suddenly grabbed the man's wrist and twisted it in the opposite direction. Before the man could scream, Qin Shu's elbow had already pressed hard on his back. The man, who was obviously half a head taller than Qin Shu, was pressed down by Qin Shu and knelt directly on the ground. Where was the aggressive look just now?
Everyone was stunned by Qin Shu's smooth grappling moves; even Yue Shanshan was unable to react for a moment.
Finally, Qin Shu looked at Yue Shanshan calmly and asked, "Do you want to beat him up?"
Yue Shanshan finally reacted after hearing this. She glanced at the man who was forced to kneel in front of her and quickly waved her hand: "Goodbye."
The man was delighted when he heard this. Just when he thought Yue Shanshan still had some attachment to him, Yue Shanshan calmly added, "It would be bad if I got your hands dirty."
"Yeah." Qin Shu nodded calmly after hearing this. She understood that this man was trash to Yue Shanshan, so she withdrew her hand as Yue Shanshan expected, and then kicked the man in the butt, letting him fall to the ground.
"Hurry up and wipe your hands." Seeing that Qin Shu was deliberately venting her anger, Yue Shanshan's pale face suddenly regained some vitality, and she hurriedly handed Qin Shu a piece of disinfectant tissue.
"Qin, Qin Shu, why are you here!?" At this moment, a beautiful girl ran over. However, the moment she saw Qin Shu's face clearly, she froze in place, her eyes suddenly widened, and her voice, which had been sweet just now, was not sweet at all. Instead, she felt guilty and frightened.
After hearing this, Qin Shu finally turned her head and looked at her.
"Silin?" The man who fell to the ground was stunned for a moment without waiting for his girlfriend to support him.
Qin Shu smiled when she heard this: "Silin? Long time no see. You even changed your name to Yu Xiaoqing."
Yes, this delicate woman was none other than Yu Xiaoqing, the daughter of the driver who died in the aircraft crash with her parents, whom Xu Xianghui hoped Qin Shu would forgive before she died.
"I, I don't know what you're talking about." The woman looked away in panic.
"Really?" Qin Shu smiled, but the smile did not reach her eyes.
"As expected, the daughter of a murderer is always good at lying and making excuses." Yue Shanshan obviously knew Yu Xiaoqing's background and couldn't help but say something.
"Yue Shanshan, what do you mean by this?" The man was a little confused, but still subconsciously protected his girlfriend.
Seeing this, Yue Shanshan just glanced at the two of them coldly and said, "I'm just stating the facts. By the way, there are some things I want to emphasize again. You, Yu Xiaoqing, I don't know what you mean by kneeling down and asking me to let you go. Let's not talk about whether it's worth it for me to deal with you for such a scumbag who would change his mind. Even if I really want to deal with you, do you think you will have the chance to put on a big show for me here? What are you planning? Some people are blind and can't understand, but I can see it clearly. Try to touch me again, and I don't mind really letting you taste what it means to not let you go."
Yu Xiaoqing's face instantly turned extremely ugly.
"Yue Shanshan, why are you talking to Silin like that?" The man became unhappy when he saw this. Before he even got up from the ground, he started to teach Yue Shanshan a lesson.
Yue Shanshan glared at him, "Scumbag, how dare you talk to your sister like that? Take your delusional girlfriend and get the hell out of our school! This isn't your third-rate university where anyone can run wild. I almost vomited when I thought about breathing the same air with you. I ignored you before and treated you like a dead person, and you're still breathing, aren't you?"
Qin Shu really didn't expect that Yue Shanshan, who looked petite, lively and energetic, could curse people so loudly. Fortunately, the school's security system soon noticed the commotion here. Not only did security personnel come, but even intelligent robots specifically responsible for "persuading" uncooperative people came and directly sent the man and Yu Xiaoqing out of the campus.
During this time, the man's harsh words were interspersed: "Yue Shanshan, and that Qin Shu, right? You just wait for me!"
"Hmph." Yue Shanshan snorted coldly upon seeing this, then continued walking forward with Qin Shu in her arm, "I'm sorry to have caused you trouble."
"It's okay." Qin Shu didn't care.
"Aren't you going to ask me?"
"If you want to say something, you will say it naturally."
Yue Shanshan couldn't help but sigh softly upon hearing this. "That's my ex-boyfriend, Lin Feng. We were childhood sweethearts, I think. I thought I knew him quite well, but ever since I accidentally met Yu Xiaoqing last year, he's become a completely different person. Every day he acts like he's going to make the whole world his enemy for her, which makes me angry. Does truly falling in love make your IQ go to zero? He used to be quite smart. And he's not the only one like this. Many people around me are like this. After meeting Yu Xiaoqing, it's like they collectively donated their brains. Each one is more stupid than the other. They all say that I'm jealous of Yu Xiaoqing and don't understand her good qualities. It makes me wonder if I was blind before."
Qin Shu didn't react at first, but after hearing the last part, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows: "A lot of people do this?"
"right."
"That's quite interesting." Qin Shu thought thoughtfully.
"Although Lin Feng's brain isn't working well now, he's still very strong. I'm afraid I'll cause you trouble." Yue Shanshan felt a little regretful.
"Huh? You mean he just told us to wait for that? It's okay, we can't say for sure if we'll ever see him again."
Who knew that after Qin Shu finished saying this, Yue Shanshan looked at Qin Shu in surprise: "Ah? Don't you know?"
"Know what?" Qin Shu was puzzled.
"The joint military training that takes place every four years is today. Our school is assigned to the same desolate planet in the Beta quadrant as Lin Feng and Yu Xiaoqing's school. Although everyone from the four grades has to participate, there's no guarantee you'll meet with so many people. But with Lin Feng's petty personality, I think he'll definitely come and cause trouble for you." Yue Shanshan couldn't help but sigh when she said this.
"Joint... military training?" Qin Shu wondered if she had heard it wrong. After all, no one had told her about this!
She finally understood why most people were in a hurry today and didn't want to stop to eat melons. She also realized belatedly what Xu Wen and the others meant by "If you have any problems, find the teacher."
So the whole world knows that there will be a joint military training today, and everyone assumes that she must know about it, but she actually knows nothing?
It's over.
What is the purpose of joint military training?
Qin Shu now looked confused.
