Chapter 864: You Can't Have Both Fish and Bear's Paw
An Xiaotong called today, saying everyone should gather tonight. Shang Qing initially didn't want to come, but she missed these people, so she came.
However, upon seeing Gu Qiaoqiao and Qin Yize, she became quite pensive.
She's not a child, nor an ignorant young girl.
She knows that given the entanglements between the Gu Family and Dongfang Yu, Qin Yize and Dongfang Yu would definitely not get along peacefully.
And the future, who really knows what it will be like.
Shang Qing thought about how great it would be if she possessed the ability to reconcile the two families, so no one would get hurt.
But you can't have your cake and eat it too.
In this world, there's no perfect solution.
Turning swords into plowshares is just a beautiful thought.
Shang Qing was lost in thought for quite some time.
Gu Qiaoqiao rested her left hand on her cheek, tilted her head to look at Shang Qing, and quickly pinched her cheek playfully, saying, "Little girl, are you in love?"
Everyone in the room turned to look at Shang Qing.
Nobody expected Gu Qiaoqiao to say those words directly.
If this were before, Gu Qiaoqiao would never have said that. Now, because she's spent a long time with everyone, Gu Qiaoqiao has regained some of her former cheerful and optimistic personality.
And Qin Yize also likes her this way.
So he just kept watch on Gu Qiaoqiao, smiling silently.
Shang Qing's face flushed red upon hearing Gu Qiaoqiao's words.
It felt like her secret was exposed.
She quickly widened her eyes and said, "Gu Qiaoqiao, don't talk nonsense."
"I was just asking casually, why are you so nervous?" Gu Qiaoqiao teased her, tilting her head.
However, this Gu Qiaoqiao did help dispel a lot of Shang Qing's earlier gloom.
And Gu Qiaoqiao didn't say a word about Dongfang Yu to Shang Qing, which also made Shang Qing breathe a sigh of relief.
At the dining table, several girls chatted, eating and drinking happily.
Meanwhile, Chu Chengfeng, Qin Yize, Master Fong, and Du Tian, these four men, actually have quite similar personalities.
Some appear gentle, some handsome, and some rebellious, but in certain ways, they are the same.
The four of them also enjoyed drinking together.
Qin Yize is a very disciplined person.
He occasionally drinks.
At the Border City Base, in a place filled with tough guys, it's a bit pretentious to say he doesn't touch alcohol or can't drink at all.
Even so, Qin Yize's alcohol limit is controlled to around three taels, and even this situation is rare.
But being with Master Fong is different.
Qin Yize took over Fong Lei's position, and the two were not only comrades but also once had a superior-subordinate relationship.
Moreover, in some aspects, Master Fong's help to Qin Yize was significant.
Their complementary personalities turned the once nameless medical team, now Special Team One, into a sharp sword ready to strike the enemy at any time.
However, precisely because of the team's special nature, almost no one knows of their existence, except for the top leaders.
And because of this, each mission achieved unexpected success.
The fact that he is the captain of Special Team One is something even Gu Qiaoqiao doesn't know, Qin Yize hasn't told her.
Perhaps, he will never say it in a lifetime.
But none of this affects their comradeship.
Plus, with Chu Chengfeng and Du Tian, this meal was really lively.
