She had really thought that Qiao Nan could let go so easily.

“Hurry, let’s go back.” Qiao Nan rolled her eyes at s.h.i.+ Qing. Wasn’t she asking the obvious?

“Alright, let’s go back. After all, if Brother Zhai is not back yet and you really want to find out about his situation, don’t you still have to rely on me to call and ask my dad?” Qiao Nan could not leave her out of this matter. “Otherwise, do you want to try to call the Zhai family directly? Anyway, Auntie Miao, who doesn’t know a thing about it, treats you quite well. If you call, she’ll definitely let you know.”

“Don’t kid around.”

“Kid around on what?” Zhu Baoguo caught up with them in a few steps. “Xiao Qiao, you went off so quickly. I even went to your cla.s.sroom to look for you. Wait, Xiao Qiao, why are you walking with this woman?”

Zhu Baoguo quickly pulled Qiao Nan away from s.h.i.+ Qing to his side. “What do you want?”

“Do you think you can intervene if I want to do anything?” s.h.i.+ Qing was amused. “Why? Have you forgotten how you were beaten up during the last semester? Don’t think that I’ll be scared of you just because you have got a tan.”

Having not seen him for more than a month, it seemed that Zhu Baoguo had gone through the second round of p.u.b.erty. He had grown taller by a fair bit.

Qiao Nan looked at him and deduced that Zhu Baoguo’s height now was certainly not lower than that of Zhai Sheng by more than three centimeters.

Zhu Baoguo’s skin was considered quite fair in the past but he now looked very different.

When he was with a group of students, his skin was so tanned that it stood out among the crowd.

“Zhu Baoguo, where did you go during summer vacation? Did you go sun-tanning every day?” s.h.i.+ Qing was very shocked. Now, Zhu Baoguo had become one of the black people?

“This is not the main point.” Zhu Baoguo stood firmly in front of Qiao Nan and looked at s.h.i.+ Qing in disdain. “Your grades are so good. Don’t you know the saying about looking at a person with different light after they went away? In the past, I purposely gave in to you because you’re a woman. But now, after learning the teachings of China’s Confucius, I feel that there are two kinds of people that I shouldn’t give into. First, a villain. Second, women like you.”

“Are you trying to say that only women and small-minded men are hard to deal with in the world? ” s.h.i.+ Qing’s expression turned stiff. She was most annoyed by those men who looked down on women.

“Yes!”

“You’re asking for a beating, aren’t you? You’re not happy that I gave in to you last time, so you’re knocking at my door and yearning for a fight?”

“It’s still uncertain who will be beaten.”

Both were from the army and were offspring of veteran revolutionaries. They had the same temperament—strong-willed, not to be trifled with, compet.i.tive, and fierce.

When Zhu Baoguo met s.h.i.+ Qing, it was simply akin to a giant asteroid striking the earth. In less than a few words, the conversation between the two of them nearly turned into a fight.

Qiao Nan took a deep breath. She carried her schoolbag and could not be bothered about these two ‘warriors’. She then walked in the direction of her home.

“Ah, Xiao Qiao, I still have something to tell you!” Qiao Nan was leaving. Zhu Baoguo thus stopped picking a fight with s.h.i.+ Qing. He caught up with Qiao Nan in quickened steps.
