The Queen's Rise to the Top

Chapter 468

Half an hour later, Nan XiangWan dragged Teng ShiHai out of the classroom by the nape of his neck. With her petite figure, she looked just like a little honey badger dragging a big teddy bear.

Teng ShiHai was utterly resigned and didn't try to resist anymore.

The other 26 people followed them out one by one, each with a different expression on their face, whispering among themselves.

"Is that the guy from Lingshan Military Region? The new recruit who killed five thugs as soon as he enlisted? Isn't she a celebrity?"

"To be honest, I was shocked when I first saw her. How about you guys?"

"No less! My commander kept drilling it into me that the new soldier-king sent from Lingshan Military Region was very fierce! But when I looked, it was Nan XiangWan..."

"Lingshan Military Region really went all out this time! The acting commander is from Lingshan Military Region, and she's also the only female member of our cohort from Lingshan Military Region."

"She doesn't look very powerful to me... Oh sh*t!"

This guy had just finished speaking when he suddenly yelled out, because Teng ShiHai had said something to piss Nan XiangWan off.

With one hand, she lifted the tall guy up!

Then! A judo shoulder throw!

Bang!

Teng ShiHai's whole body slammed into the ground. He immediately covered his shoulder in pain.

This scene instantly stunned everyone into silence. No more doubts.

Lan Ying's eyes narrowed as she captured the trajectory of Nan XiangWan's muscular lines the instant she erupted with power.

No wonder all the military regions eyed her covetously. To utilize such an extreme explosion, she really is quite capable!

Qu Xiu, wearing earphones, chimed in: "Her codename is Flat-head Bro."

Everyone: "..."

A perfect match!

Nan XiangWan was still snarling, about to kick him.

Teng ShiHai quickly begged for mercy: "Bro! Oh no, sis! Give me some face!"

Nan XiangWan withdrew her foot, but her claws were still clamped under Teng ShiHai's neck.

Teng ShiHai: "Can you remove your paws from my carotid artery! This is school!"

Nan XiangWan thought about it and let go.

Teng ShiHai hurriedly climbed up and whispered: "There's very little I can tell you. You think the acting commander has a lot of power? I'm just an errand boy. I'll be graduating next year."

Nan XiangWan: "So I just have to come register on the 3rd and then I'll be done?"

Teng ShiHai: "Wait for instructions. I can't say any more."

Nan XiangWan: "Oh, where do you usually train?"

Teng ShiHai: "In school during semesters, the military academy has training plans. During holidays I return to the military region. To put it bluntly, I have no holidays. I shuttle between school and the military region. You're a special case - you don't need to report for duty at a military region."

Nan XiangWan: "Then where will you be assigned after graduation?"

Teng ShiHai: "How would I know?"

It seemed Nan XiangWan had tons of questions to ask, but Teng ShiHai kept beating around the bush, especially regarding the special forces course's subsequent developments. He wouldn't say another word.

She eventually got tired of asking.

Just as they walked out of the teaching building, Teng ShiHai suddenly said: "Right, how was your dinner? Did you eat your fill?"

Nan XiangWan looked at him strangely: "I was full. Why, are you treating me to supper?"

Teng ShiHai: "You wish!"

The two parted ways. Nan XiangWan walked towards the Arts Building alone, but ran into Gu Beihuai up ahead.

There was another person standing next to him, saying something.

The moment that person saw Nan XiangWan approaching, he darted into the bushes and disappeared without a trace.

Nan XiangWan: "???"

Gu Beihuai greeted her: "All done?"

Nan XiangWan: "Yeah. That guy just now looked familiar."

Gu Beihuai smiled: "You've probably seen him on campus before. His name is Luo Wei. He's here for his Master's this year."

Nan XiangWan: "Oh! The one who's always hiding on the balcony with Gong Jin to peek at me?"

Gu Beihuai was taken aback, then laughed out loud.

In hiding, Luo Wei: "..."

Damn! So she noticed long ago?

Crap, this time I really can't escape!

Nan XiangWan asked again: "Since Gong Jin and Jiechou are both straight men, are Luo Wei and Mantou a couple?"

In hiding, Luo Wei: "!!!"

Gu Beihuai: "I'm so touched that you finally stopped counting me in."

Nan XiangWan looked at him: "Didn't you say you wanted to marry me?"

Gu Beihuai: "!!!"

The sudden twist was a bit hard for him to keep up with!

Also, Teng ShiHai would never have told you there was a mission at night. The special forces course's registration day does have some special characteristics, but they definitely wouldn't expose that to you. What would be the point then?

You inferred that yourself.

Gu Beihuai became very curious for a moment and asked, "What exactly did Teng ShiHai tell you?"

Nan XiangWan honestly replied: "He specifically asked if I was full."

Gu Beihuai: "I see."

Now he understood. Teng ShiHai probably didn't realize that the clueless and simple-minded Nan XiangWan would become extremely sharp in matters related to the military.

Thinking so, Gu Beihuai held out the paper bag he'd been carrying: "I know you don't like to eat, but you need to."

Nan XiangWan saw they were all high satiety compressed foods.

Gu Beihuai looked at the girl's face and after some thought, reached out to rub her head.

Her hair was very soft and smooth. Before he knew it, he'd rubbed her head into a spiked mess.

Nan XiangWan: "Giving the cat scritches?"

Gu Beihuai's smile was radiant: "Is your codename from the animal series?"

Nan XiangWan was shocked: "How did you know!"

Gu Beihuai: "I also know about a honey badger plan on you, so your code name should be Flat-Head Bro?"

Nan XiangWan: "..."

She didn't say this herself. Gu Beihuai guessed it!

But why did Gu Beihuai know all her secrets?

He knew even more than her!

She didn't even know about a honey badger plan!

Gu Beihuai: "My old code name was Fox."

Nan XiangWan pouted: "Still better sounding than mine."

Gu Beihuai sighed: "I'll go back to Shang Hai to earn money for you. You gotta work hard on your own!"

Nan XiangWan nodded heavily: "Mm!"

She turned and unhesitatingly walked into the dorm building.

Gu Beihuai watched her back disappear around the corner before leaving in the opposite direction.

The two strode towards different paths, but would one day meet again at the pinnacle!

Luo Wei jogged to catch up the whole way. Mainly because the previous conversation was too shocking. Then the two turned and parted so unhesitatingly, catching him off guard.

But he was too far to hear what they said when separating.

It was just very strange - why was their courtship so different from others!

No hugs? Or even a little kiss?

Yet there was none of that! Luo Wei felt extremely disappointed for tailing them fruitlessly.
