Chapter 1742: Chapter 1760: Southern Tall Trees (71)

Qin Shaonan, "Bottled water, one bottle for each girl here, and I’ll have one too."

The waiter responded and left.

On the other side, people had already started singing.

Zhao Xiaoman slipped away quickly to become the "microphone hog," leaving only Qiao Qiao and Qin Shaonan sitting close together.

Qiao Qiao sat there, neither wanting to sing nor to make any kind of splash, just feeling really good sitting next to him.

Qin Shaonan sat there, flipping through his phone.

The two were surrounded by a special kind of silence, matching none of the noisy atmosphere of the room.

Until someone came to offer a toast to Qin Shaonan, he finally put down his phone, "There’s training tomorrow, so I won’t drink. You guys enjoy."

A group of people didn’t dare to be too bold and quickly walked away.

Qiao Qiao sat there, and because Qin Shaonan was around, no one dared to come over and bother them.

The two just sat there, maintaining the quiet.

Unknown how much time passed, many of the guys had drunk too much, and one of them, especially drunk, staggered over with a beer bottle toward Qiao Qiao.

Qin Shaonan looked up, his gaze falling on him, ice-cold like frost.

The guy was so drunk he didn’t even notice the piercingly cold gaze on him, his mind full of just Qiao Qiao.

Qiao Qiao, "..."

She looked at the guy coming toward her, previously she wouldn’t have thought much of it, but now she started to pity him.

Given her recent understanding of Instructor Qin over the past few days, the days ahead for him would be rough.

Qin Shaonan sat there, lit a cigarette, and took a light puff, his razor-sharp lips drawing in the smoke just as the guy named Zhang Kai reached Qiao Qiao’s side.

"Qiao Qiao, I’ve liked you for a long time, today I want to confess to you."

Qiao Qiao merely smiled, without making a sound.

Qin Shaonan sat beside her, took another drag of his cigarette, and looked at Zhang Kai with cold eyes.

Zhang Kai, captivated by Qiao Qiao’s smile, became even more intoxicated, completely oblivious to Qin Shaonan’s expression, and foolishly started to laugh, "Qiao Qiao, your smile is really beautiful."

Just as he finished speaking, Qiao Qiao heard the man beside her take another puff of his cigarette.

Qin Shaonan sat there, shifted his gaze away from Zhang Kai, turned his head, and glanced at Qiao Qiao, his eyes dark and deep.

Qiao Qiao’s smile froze on her face, and soon she sat there all serious.

For a moment, the atmosphere was somewhat awkward.

Unfortunately, Zhang Kai could not sense it, "Qiao Qiao, say something."

Qiao Qiao looked at Zhang Kai, "Sorry, I have a boyfriend."

Zhang Kai gave a laugh and took a big gulp of beer, "I’ve heard you reject others like this too, but why haven’t I seen your boyfriend at school? Is he someone from our school? I can challenge him to a duel."

Duel!

Qiao Qiao sat there, a slight twitch at the corner of her mouth.

If Zhang Kai knew that person was Instructor Qin, would he still say such childish things?

Duel?

She thought Zhang Kai would be KO’d by the person next to her with a single punch, unable to even crawl.

Qin Shaonan sat there, exceptionally silent.

Under Zhang Kai’s hopeful gaze, Qiao Qiao finally spoke, "Zhang Kai, my boyfriend is really good at fighting, you should really stop saying such things, if he hears, he might knock you down so hard you can’t even get up."

Zhang Kai listened, unconvinced, his pride on the line too, "Oh really? How would I know if I don’t try? I... I want to see how he knocks me down so I can’t get up..."

Qiao Qiao, "I’m giving you a friendly warning, if you don’t listen, there’s not much I can do. I really like my boyfriend, and he’s very possessive and domineering, he might not be happy about this."

Zhang Kai, "Whether he’s happy doesn’t concern me, I’m going to pursue you anyway."

A group of people in the back started to cheer, "Zhang Kai, Zhang Kai."
