Capítulo 1652: Chapter 1652: Military Training in Progress (Part 14)

“I’m more like my mom,” Jiaojiao said, seeing Duan Xi already walking over from the other side. She waved immediately, and the other two followed her gaze and froze again.

In their eyes, Duan Xi seemed to be glowing as he walked towards them.

And it wasn’t just them; there wasn’t a girl around who wasn’t secretly checking out Duan Xi, and some of the shyer ones even blushed.

Duan Xi clipped his cap to his waist, walked up to Jiaojiao, and naturally took the hat from her hand, ready to walk away holding her hand.

Jiaojiao immediately held him back and pointed to Chen Hui and Wu Huan, saying, “Brother Xi, these are my classmates, Wu Huan and Chen Hui.”

“Wu Huan, Chen Hui, this is Duan Xi, from the Computer Science Department.”

Duan Xi initially just glanced at the completely stunned and speechless Wu Huan and Chen Hui, probably thinking about the fact that Jiaojiao would spend the next four years with them, and he nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

Wu Huan and Chen Hui didn’t even react until Jiaojiao finished saying goodbye and left.

When Jiaojiao and Duan Xi were out of sight, Wu Huan finally found her voice, “Is he another brother??”

“Can’t be, the surnames aren’t even the same,” replied Chen Hui.

“Cousin?”

“Possible?” said Chen Hui.

“Seeing Jiaojiao’s brother makes me wonder if my brother is a fake,” Wu Huan said with a hint of melancholy. She had a brother too, but hers was like an enemy!

Never mind looks, she wasn’t as beautiful as Jiaojiao, nor did she expect a brother as handsome as Ruan Jie or Duan Xi. As long as her brother didn’t confront her with a knife, that was good enough.

Of course, Wu Huan didn’t know then that this was just the appetizer. Over the next four years, she would completely redefine what the term “brother” meant.

Jiaojiao had no idea what a shock she had brought to her new classmates. As she walked with Duan Xi, she chatted about the day’s events, and when she mentioned Zheng Jiaojiao, Duan Xi stopped and asked, “Did she bully you?”

“No, no, I fought back, and she was almost fuming,” Jiaojiao said. Thinking of Li Que, she laughed and added, “My roommates are all really nice. Brother Xi, what about yours? Are they all from your class?”

“Didn’t pay attention,” Duan Xi said, his mind still lingering on Zheng Jiaojiao, eyes flickering with a hint of danger.

“You’ve spent a night together, and you guys haven’t even talked?” Jiaojiao exclaimed in surprise.

They continued their conversation as they walked to their dormitory, and when they reached the door, Jiaojiao caught the aroma of food and quickly sped up her pace.

“Auntie Tang, we’re here,” she shouted.

“Okay, the last dish is almost ready. You two sit down and rest for a bit,” Auntie Tang called out, poking her head out of the small kitchen, then went back to cooking.

Auntie Tang’s place was essentially a dorm room, about twenty or thirty square meters. She used a cloth to partition the small balcony into two little spaces, with the inner one used as a small kitchen where she cooked meals.

Since Cai Peng attended Qing University’s affiliate high school and boarded there from Monday to Friday, he came here during holidays, so there were two beds in the room, the traditional upper and lower bunk style.

Though the room was small, Auntie Tang was a diligent person and kept it neat and tidy.
