Fierce Love: Bringing Wife Home-Chapter 74 - 7

74: Chapter 7

Looks a lot worse than he did!

74 -7

Looks a lot worse than he did!

Quan Shaoqing’s brows furrowed, and his demeanor suddenly turned cold, “Speak properly, what am I not suited for?

Age?”

Lin Mi wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.

Goodness!

He shouldn’t have spouted nonsense!

“Superior officer, age indeed poses a problem, as does the generation gap.

She’s only eighteen now, if she were to get married, you would have to wait at least another four years.

By then you’ll be thirty.

The old lady will surely urge you to go on blind dates.

I have received orders from the old lady—if you don’t get married, she will bring girls to the army base for you to meet.”

Quan Shaoqing’s face darkened as he glared at Lin Mi, then waved him away impatiently, “You may go!”

“You don’t need my help anymore?” Lin Mi eyed the crabs, having bought so many, he surely deserved one.

“No need!” Quan Shaoqing opened the door directly and shooed Lin Mi out.

He had seen through him; this guy was a traitor, not on his side.

(A reader got it right; he should be banished to the Frontier.)

Lin Mi was pushed to the door, looking at the tightly shut door, he touched his nose, feeling aggrieved.

What did he say wrong?

In this society, speaking the truth seems to make you despised.

Indeed, truth hurts!

…

Gu Xiaoxi decided to let Song Jingyi cut her hair during the lunch break.

As a result, she let out a scream in the dormitory.

“Song Jingyi!

Damn it, do you even know how?” Gu Xiaoxi clutched her head, her hair was cut into a huge hole on the top, unevenly short and long.

Song Jingyi, frightened by Gu Xiaoxi’s gloomy face, nearly cut her face with the scissors, “I-I…

I’ve never done this!”

Gu Xiaoxi kicked her out and pointed to Qin Chu, who was reading at the desk.

Qin Chu immediately waved his hands, “I can’t, my skills are even worse than hers!”

Gu Xiaoxi turned to look at Li Chun, who showed an expression uglier than crying.

Gu Xiaoxi, looking at the mess on her head in the mirror, was on the verge of breakdown.

If she had known Song Jingyi was this bad, she would never have let her do it.

Now she was turned into a chicken’s nest.

“Xiao Xi, should I go next door and ask if someone can help?” Song Jingyi offered an awkward, ingratiating smile, trying her best to make amends.

Gu Xiaoxi glared at her, grinding her teeth, “Then hurry up and go!”

Gu Xiaoxi, speechlessly sitting in front of the stool, picked up the scissors and snipped twice.

Crap!

It was even worse than before!

She fainted in the restroom!

Just as Gu Xiaoxi was getting anxious, Shao Changfeng’s voice came from outside, “Is Gu Xiaoxi there?”

Li Chun immediately stood up and saluted the platoon leader, “Reporting for duty!”

“Tell her, someone is looking for her in the reception room,” Shao Changfeng said.

Gu Xiaoxi wrapped her head in a towel, came out of the washroom, grabbed Shao Changfeng’s sleeve and dragged him into the washroom, “Come and help me out!”

Shao Changfeng, confused, stared at her, “What happened?”

Gu Xiaoxi removed the towel…

“Pfft!” When Shao Changfeng saw her hair shoddily cut in all directions, even the usually composed man couldn’t help but burst into laughter, nearly doubling over, “Are you sure you’re not just trying to amuse me?”

Gu Xiaoxi shoved the scissors into his hand, “Hurry up, for the sake of our not-so-bad relationship, consider it a favor.”

Shao Changfeng, holding the scissors and trying to suppress his chuckles, looked at Gu Xiaoxi’s ruined hair and sighed, “With your hair like this, you can only go for a buzz cut.”

Gu Xiaoxi, looking at her disheveled hair, clenched her teeth and closed her eyes, “Buzz cut it is then, just hurry.”

Anything’s better than looking like a madwoman!

Shao Changfeng sighed speechlessly and began working efficiently, he cut while saying, “Someone came looking for you just now, fixing your hair will take at least half an hour.”

“Who?” asked Gu Xiaoxi in a deep voice.

“A very, very handsome man!” Shao Changfeng thought carefully; the man was dressed in plain clothes, all white, evidently very neat, tall and handsome with extraordinary manners.

In his presence, he could feel an aura of superiority.

Thinking it over, Shao Changfeng could only use these words to describe Quan Shaoqing.

Gu Xiaoxi thought for a moment, probably Quan Shaoqing.

Half an hour later, Gu Xiaoxi looked at the woman in the mirror and couldn’t help but light up!

That could no longer be described as a woman, but was vividly a handsome-looking young fellow.

With a buzz cut, the clean forehead made the eyebrows look exceptionally thick, and the deep gaze carried a hint of arrogance.

The well-defined brows and eyes, the fair skin, and the delicate features added an ethereal quality to her bearing.

The more she looked, the more charming she became.

This hairstyle even suited her better than her shoulder-length hair!

Gu Xiaoxi proudly raised her neck, giving Shao Changfeng a thumbs-up, “Buddy, you really have great skills.

Thanks for today!”

As Shao Changfeng stared at the reflection in the mirror, he was stunned for a while before recovering, “No need to thank me.

You better hurry!

Maybe they can’t wait anymore.”

Gu Xiaoxi patted the hair shavings off her camouflage uniform, saluted Shao Changfeng, and then ran out of the dormitory quickly.

Song Jingyi and Li Chun admired Gu Xiaoxi’s courage for having the platoon leader personally cut her hair.

That was quite a privilege.

The girls in the dormitory looked at Shao Changfeng and suddenly felt the platoon leader was so warm-hearted!

They praised his kindness.

In the reception room, Quan Shaoqing checked his watch for the tenth time.

He had a very poor impression of Shao Changfeng.

This soldier was incredibly slow!

Summoning someone took half an hour, and this was the platoon leader of the strongest reconnaissance soldiers.

With his temperament, he ought to demote him and have him start over!

It happened at the moment he checked his watch for the eleventh time.

The door of the reception room opened.

A “youth” with a jade-like complexion walked toward him with noble strides, hands in pockets.

The short hair fully revealed that exquisitely beautiful face, bright eyes, white teeth, and a vivacious expression.

A pair of dark eyes twinkled with untamed cold lights, making her aura especially complex: a bit haughty, a bit unruly, a bit detached, just like the White Plum on Snow Mountain, exuding pride amidst the snow, standing tall and elegant in the wind.

Quan Shaoqing stared at her in disbelief, “Gu Xiaoxi!”

Gu Xiaoxi tilted her head up, threw a flirtatious glance, and smiled flirtatiously, “Handsome, are you up for a date?”

Quan Shaoqing was about to approach her when, upon hearing this, he stumbled, nearly falling over.

He knew this person well; the nature is hard to change, the landscape is easy to change.

She hadn’t changed one bit!

“Come here!” Quan Shaoqing beckoned to her, and Gu Xiaoxi walked over.

He placed his hand on her shoulder and then pushed her to sit down in front of a chair, “Didn’t you want crab?

I brought it.

And I also made you a lobster congee!”

Gu Xiaoxi looked at the food box in front of her, which contained six crabs, and a thermal container, which should contain the congee Quan Shaoqing mentioned.

Unfortunately, she had already eaten at noon.

The cafeteria’s food was quite good, and she had eaten her fill.

Moreover, seeing the crabs made her think of Yi Chentian.

Somehow, it just made her blood boil.

For her, Gu Xiaoxi, to have a boyfriend for the first time, and for it not to last even a month, to have had just one meal with him, and even their total time spent together not to exceed two hours.

She might well be the only one in the world to have experienced such a tragic love affair, unprecedented and unrepeatable.

What made her even more furious was that she was the one who got dumped!

Quan Shaoqing stood in front of Gu Xiaoxi, watching her furrow her brows, perplexed, he asked, “Didn’t you say you wanted to eat?

Why are you just looking at it?”

Gu Xiaoxi leaned back on the stool, crossed her legs, then rested her hand on the armrest, and looked at Quan Shaoqing with a wild posture and a sidelong glance.

The man, dressed in a casual white outfit, didn’t look like a high-ranking officer, with an air of valor between his brows, always exuding an imperceptible majesty.

That complex aura was like a candle shining in the night, deeply attracting moths, unable to extricate themselves.

Gu Xiaoxi narrowed her eyes, raised her head to meet Quan Shaoqing’s gaze, “I just had lunch.

It looks like I will have to save it for dinner.”

Quan Shaoqing always felt there was a deep annoyance hidden in Gu Xiaoxi’s eyes, one she concealed very well.

His heart suddenly skipped a beat!

Was she blaming him for threatening Yi Chentian?

“And you still had me bring it?

Didn’t you see the message I sent you?” He had clearly sent her a message, and Quan Shaoqing’s face turned dark immediately.

Was she deliberately picking a fight?

Because he had interfered with her love life.

Meanwhile, both of them hid a dark flame in their eyes.

Gu Xiaoxi said nothing, simply holding a faint, ambiguous smile on her lips.

Her dark eyes, however, were cold enough to make one shiver.

“This crab looks much worse than what he made!”
