9 Uninteresting and Ordinary

Her bedroom was still the same from her memory.

Warm and simple sky blue tone. It was filled with a feeling that brought a sense of comfort to Gu Qingjiu.

It was as if by merely standing there, her heart would be at peace.

She only had a feeling of satisfaction.

She pulled out a chair from the desk with a computer atop it.

The conditions at home were not hard-up, and Mr. Gu had provided Gu Qingjiu with everything she needed.

For this daughter they had picked up, they doted on very much.

Compared with her biological Yu family, it made Gu Qingjiu dislike them even more.

Not to mention, Yu Shiwei from her previous life was her biological sister. Even if she hated her, Gu Qingjiu would not have gone to the extent of bribing a prison guard to kill her. How much did Yu Shiwei really hate her?

When she was in the Yu family, she was not an orthodox young lady, and only graduated from high school. She was not as good as Yu Shiwei, who had been pampered ever since she was a child. She knew that she could not be compared with her and so she never tried to provoke Yu Shiwei. But Yu Shiwei always treated her as an eyesore which Gu Qingjiu never understood.

Now, she did not need to understand.

Not only would she not let the Yu family off, but she would also make the whole Yu family pay if they repeat what they did in her previous life!

A trace of hatred flashed past her eyes. Gu Qingjiu took out a pen from the pen holder next to the computer and smoothed out the distribution form, filling in her own information conscientiously afterward. Then finally, she ticked the column for joining the military.

One had to go through screening to join the military, but as long as they were not seriously ill or disabled and were healthy, they would pass the screening and enter the military force. There was also a review period, and if the training and review failed to meet the standards, one would be asked to go back after three months.

After that time frame, one would become an official new recruit, and this was what would make Gu Qingjiu feel a sense of relief.

After she had filled out the form, she pressed it under the desk.

The school did not bother to call as to why Gu Qingjiu left even after Mr. Gu had come back in the evening.

It was usually the mindset of a form teacher when a student had given up.

Gu Qingjiu did not care. Basically, the form teacher would give up on the students who had long expressed that they weren't willing to take the college entrance examination. Because they would eventually be distributed, there was no need to find fault in those students. This was the thought of most teachers; if they were responsible enough, they might even call.

But Gu Qingjiu's teacher was not among them.

Gu Qingjiu, after coming back to life again, still felt a little confused and so she went to sleep for a while.

After waking up, she finally felt a sense of relief knowing that she was not in a dark prison, rather she was in a home she's familiar with and had not seen for a long time. She could even hear the voices of her parents discussing coming from outside the door.

They were discussing Gu Qingjiu joining the military.

The sound insulation of the room was not good, so Gu Qingjiu could clearly hear that her father did not want her to join the military.

It was normal. No father would bear to let their daughter suffer, let alone it was Gu Qingjiu they were talking about.

She got out of bed, put on her slippers, and looked at the person in the mirror when she passed by her dressing table. Thick bangs had framed her forehead, and her chubby cheeks made her big and bright eyes appear smaller. Because she does not fix her focus when she looks at people, she often looks a bit wooden. Wearing a rustic uniform, there was no trace of youthfulness to her at all.

Her fair skin that was especially eye-catching was unable to cover her flaws. Gu Qingjiu had covered up this advantage of her.

This was her at eighteen years old. Uninteresting and ordinary.
