Chapter 1738: Chapter 1756: Southern Tall Trees (67)

Qin Shaonan’s face looked a bit better, and he didn’t reply to the message.

Qiao Qiao stole a glance in his direction. Did she pass the test? Luckily, she was smart.

She continued chatting with everyone.

Over by Qin Shaonan, a group of male classmates surrounded him, expressing their admiration and asking about the training he underwent in the army.

He either remained silent or said something brief.

Seeing this, the girls nearby admired him even more.

"How do you guys plan to win over Instructor Qin?"

"Seduction."

"Seduction doesn’t work, right? Just ask Qiao Qiao."

...

Qiao Qiao, "..."

She glanced at the group of girls looking her way. Confirming she used seduction?

"Injustice! I just pursued openly and honestly."

Everyone understood, "Look, this method doesn’t work either, so what else could you try?"

Qiao Qiao glanced in Qin Shaonan’s direction, probably because he always seemed so distant, rejecting everyone, that his mysterious aura attracted people even more?

She coughed lightly and looked at Zhao Xiaoman, "I think Xiaoman has a point."

Everyone turned to Zhao Xiaoman, "Xiaoman, what did you say?"

Zhao Xiaoman lowered her voice and spoke softly, "Don’t you think Instructor Qin might actually be gay?"

As soon as she finished speaking, whispers started around.

"Yeah, that makes sense."

"That’s hard to say."

...

Qiao Qiao sat there, glanced in Qin Shaonan’s direction, and silently said sorry, "Instructor Qin, for safety’s sake, you’ll have to bear this blame. You’re just too popular."

Hmm, anyway, no one will tell him. Xiaoman spoke up, not her.

After a while, the dishes and beer were served. Everyone began eating and drinking, and from time to time someone toasted Qin Shaonan.

Qiao Qiao noticed that he accepted every toast. Fortunately, no one dared to bully him too much; half were toasting him table by table, but when it came to the girls, the rules changed, and they toasted one by one.

Zhao Xiaoman went first, "Instructor Qin, I’m a girl, I’ll drink first out of respect."

With that, she tilted her head back and drank.

Qin Shaonan said nothing and drank.

Afterward, each girl toasted one by one, and soon it was Qiao Qiao’s turn.

She took her drink and walked to Qin Shaonan’s side, "Instructor Qin, I’ll drink, you do as you please."

Qin Shaonan glanced at Qiao Qiao, noting how much the guys had gotten her to drink, "You do as you please, I’ll drink."

As he finished speaking, he drank it all.

Qiao Qiao watched with a flicker in her eyes; she received special treatment!

With a charming smile, she took a small sip, "Thank you, Instructor Qin."

Back at her seat, her phone rang.

She saw the message "Don’t drink anymore," and replied, "Okay."

Having drunk a lot, she soon felt the urge to go to the restroom. Qiao Qiao headed to the bathroom, found it occupied, left the restaurant, and called Zhao Xiaoman, "I’ll head back to the dorm to deal with this; it’s close, and I’ll be back soon."

Zhao Xiaoman, "You’ve drunk so much, are you not drunk? Can you get there by yourself?"

Qiao Qiao, "I’m fine, not drunk."

...

Not far away, Qin Shaonan heard this and told Wang Dacheng he was heading to the restroom, then left the restaurant.

Soon, he saw Qiao Qiao waiting by the roadside in the distance, ready to cross.

He quickened his pace and caught up with Qiao Qiao.

Qiao Qiao returned to the dormitory, went to the restroom, relieved herself, flushed, and had just washed her hands when she suddenly felt a shadow approaching.
