Chapter 336 Sister Su An, something's wrong with you! Su Tang also turned around and looked at him calmly.
Gao Kai's cheeks flushed slightly. When she looked into her clear eyes, which seemed to see right through people, all the words he had prepared for the whole trip instantly became stuck in his throat.
"Is something the matter?" Su Tang asked.
"N-nothing..." Gao Kai felt a little nervous when she looked into his clear eyes. He scratched his head, chuckled twice, and could only make up a question on the spot, "I just wanted to... wanted to ask you, what do you think of... what do you think of that Instructor Qin?"
As soon as the question was asked, Wang Xiaoya and Chen Xiaocao's ears perked up like rabbits, and even Liu Landi, who usually didn't care much about these things, turned her attention to it intently.
Yes, everyone wants to know.
Everyone wanted to know what kind of person this new "living Yama" was in the eyes of Su An, the "pillar of strength" of the Third Battalion.
For a moment, not only those few, but even a few soldiers who were preparing to return to their dormitories in twos and threes nearby, upon hearing this question, seemed to be frozen in place. They subconsciously slowed down their pace, pretending to chat or adjust their collars, but in reality, their ears were all perked up, wishing they could move a few more meters closer.
Su Tang looked at Gao Kai's face, which was filled with "desire for knowledge" and "admiration".
She did not answer immediately.
This sudden question was like a key, unexpectedly unlocking a box in her heart.
Qin Ye's image appeared clearly in her mind without any warning.
This is not the same "Instructor Qin" who was so menacing and ruthless on the playground just now.
Instead, it's the man who would clumsily heat up a cup of milk for her while she stayed up late drawing blueprints, only to burn himself in the process; the man who would hold her while she slept, resting his chin on her head, his warm breath on her; the man whose ears would quietly turn red if she looked at him too much.
The scent of soap on him, the warmth of his embrace, the tenderness in his eyes… these images, along with the image of the “living Yama” who had almost crippled Zhang Kui with a single move, forced the three thugs to bite each other, and whose eyes were so cold they could shatter ice, were all wildly intertwined and overlapped.
This stark contrast allowed the emotions that had been suppressed in her heart all afternoon to suddenly find an outlet, like a punctured balloon.
A complex feeling, a mixture of exasperation, amusement, and a touch of heartache and helplessness, instantly welled up inside me.
Is this so-called "long-term classified mission" just something you come to do to show off your power in front of me?
Gao Kai nervously swallowed, his Adam's apple bobbing. Seeing that Teacher Su remained silent, his heart pounded with anxiety. Was she frightened? Or did she think Instructor Qin had gone too far? Or… did she simply not bother to comment?
Just when everyone thought that, given Su An's consistently concise and even somewhat aloof personality, she would probably give an assessment such as "very strong," "not to be trifled with," or simply "I don't know,"
What happened next almost made everyone's eyes pop out of their sockets.
Suddenly, the taut lines on Su Tang's face, which had always seemed to be covered by a thin layer of ice and had little expression, softened.
She lowered her eyes slightly, her long eyelashes casting a small shadow beneath them, concealing the complex and turbulent emotions in her gaze.
Then, the corners of her mouth, those always tightly pursed and somewhat stubborn corners, unexpectedly and uncontrollably curved upwards into a very shallow arc.
That smile was fleeting, like a flash in the pan. So fleeting that one might think they were seeing things.
But Gao Kai saw it.
Wang Xiaoya saw it too.
They saw it all clearly! Absolutely!
Gao Kai's brain completely shut down in that instant.
He froze on the spot, his eyes wide open, his mouth slightly agape, his mind a complete blank, with only three words swirling, enlarging, and finally exploding in his head—
She smiled?
Teacher Su...smiled?
The teacher Su who remained calm no matter the crisis, the doubts of many people, or even amidst gunfire, the teacher Su who was always as calm as a block of ice, actually... smiled?
Moreover, he showed such a smile when mentioning that god-like instructor Qin.
How...how is this possible?!
