Chapter 45
Good At All Kinds Of Martial Arts
The overhead sun was blazing and despite the end of autumn, it was still very hot.
After Gu Youli returned to the school, she reported to the officer-in-charge and stood in the heat for their military training.
Because of Yu Feibai’s mission, Gu Youli had been observing Xiao Qi since she returned.
Xiao Qi was an average looking girl and her face had tanned deeply because of the sun. Her features were not outstanding and she didn’t look much different from any other female student.
If she was put in the crowd, no one would notice her.
She had already fainted several times in just one training and looked even weaker than Gu Youli.
She recalled that the spies seemed pretty formidable in movies or dramas. Xiao Qi didn’t really look like a spy despite what Yu Feibai had said.
However, she also knew that one cannot judge a book by its cover.
During their break time, Chu Qing ran to the little shop near the field to buy two bottles of mineral water and came back to pass one of them to Gu Youli.
“Thank you!’ Gu Youli received the water with thanks.
She twisted the bottle cap open and drowned almost half a bottle in one go.
Chu Qing said a little worriedly, “Youli, don’t drink so fast. You’ve just gotten a little better and your period isn’t over yet.”
Gu Youli exhaled comfortably. “I’m alright, I’ve fully recovered!”
“Yeah right. I get periods as well. Even someone fit like me would feel a little discomfort during my period.” As Chu Qing said that, she suddenly recalled the scene where Yu Feibai had picked Gu Youli and carried her away.
She threw her a meaningful glance and said softly, “Yesterday when that handsome senior officer carried you to the hospital, did any other accident happen? For example, you accidentally… kissed?”
Gu Youli facepalmed herself and sighed. “Qingqing, you’re thinking way too much. Do you think this is an idol drama? Coming back to the point, you really are very fit. Have you practiced martial arts before?”
She changed the topic, tactfully.
Gu Youli believed in her heart that Chu Qing was not a spy.
Chu Qing smiled to reveal her mesmerizing dimples. “Yeah. I know martial arts. It’s a tradition passed down in my family. I started training when I was young. Why don’t I show you some moves?”
As she said that, Chu Qing posed.
Gu Youli pulled her up to make her stand properly. “It’s alright, I believe you. But what kind of martial arts do you know?”
Chu Qing said proudly, “Swords, fists, staff… basically all the 18 weapons. I am a master of masters!”
She might know all of them, but the part about being a master of masters was obviously a boast.
Gu Youli found it hard to imagine and looked at Chu Qing in disbelief. “Why would you learn all of them?”
As she said that, she shifted her weight to the other leg.
She glanced and saw Xiao Qi standing nearby, leaning against a tree.
Xiao Qi glanced at Chu Qing with a despising look and the corner of her lips curled up. It was obviously a mocking smile.
Chu Qing’s gaze was on Gu Youli and she did not notice others.
At this moment, she was smiling as she told Gu Youli, “My grandpa is a martial arts coach. My dad is his only son and I am the only child in my family. When I was young, my parents were busy with work so my grandpa brought me up. He practically trained me like I was a boy!”
Gu Youli looked at her in shock. “Wasn’t that very tiring? You could actually handle all that?”
