Chapter 306: Qi Xiaoran’s Older Brother
Qi Xiaoran’s older brother is in the capital too?
This was something Gu Qingjiu hadn’t expected.
But she wasn’t someone who asked too many questions about someone else’s affairs. She first stuck her head in for Qi Xiaoran to notice that she was back.
There was still a remnant of a smile at the corners of Qi Xiaoran’s lips. Upon seeing Gu Qingjiu, although that smile had faded a little, it wasn’t as flustered as it was the first time.
“Brother, my roommate is back. I’ll hang up first.”
“Okay.”
That voice sounded as gentle as Gu Qingjiu heard the last time. This time, before Qi Xiaoran ended the video call, Gu Qingjiu caught a glimpse of a blurry figure.
However, it was as good as not seeing anything clearly.
“You’re going to meet your older brother? What a coincidence, I’m going to meet mine tomorrow as well. He’s studying at Yannan University.”
As both she and Qi Xiaoran had an older brother, the instant Gu Qingjiu sat down she tried to start a conversation.
Qi Xiaoran’s expression froze for a moment before she asked a rather strange question. “Your biological older brother?”
Gu Qingjiu nodded her head in a natural manner. “Yeah, why?”
This question made her feel a little odd.
“It’s okay…”
Qi Xiaoran shook her head. Although her expression was calm and aloof, Gu Qingjiu could still sense a slight stiffness in the depths of her eyes.
Gu Qingjiu was a sensitive person, hence this subtle expression didn’t escape her eyes.
She started feeling odd all of a sudden. Could it be that Qi Xiaoran’s older brother wasn’t her biological brother?
Else, she wouldn’t have asked such a strange question.
“My older brother is studying at Yannan University as well.”
No idea if it was due to this reason, Qi Xiaoran pursed her lower lip when she spoke, revealing a faint smile, an expression which one rarely saw on her.
Suppressing the odd feeling she had, Gu Qingjiu felt a little surprised. “Really? That’s great. We can go to meet them together tomorrow.”
Yannan University was considered the best institution of learning in China in recent years.
Those who were able to get in were naturally outstanding.
Most importantly, over ten years ago a legendary world-class superstar graduated from Yannan University.
This was what people enjoyed talking about.
“Oh… okay.”
Qi Xiaoran’s response seemed a little hesitant.
Gu Qingjiu wasn’t an insensitive person. “If you don’t wish to, we don’t have to go together. My brother reads law at the university. It can’t be so coincidental that your older brother also…”
Qi Xiaoran found it unbelievable. “My older brother reads law too…”
Gu Qingjiu was speechless.
How could something so coincidental happen in the world?
She had never asked before, and surprisingly when she did, she discovered such a big surprise.
“Let’s go together.”
Gu Qingjiu, too, nodded and smiled. “Alright, let’s go together tomorrow.”
Although Gu Qingmo reads law at the university, according to him he wasn’t considered outstanding in the faculty—where there were tons of outstanding people. Moreover, he didn’t have the intention of seeking a job in the law industry upon graduation.
He was interning at a foreign company at that moment, doing translation work.
Gu Qingjiu had no idea what her older brother was thinking.
After all, the students that graduated from Yannan had strong capabilities. It wouldn’t be difficult for them to find a job that fits in with their vocational training.
If he had no interest in related work, why did he enroll to read law in the first place…
Gu Qingjiu had never asked him about this before.
But now, when she heard that Qi Xiaoran’s older brother also reads law at the university, Gu Qingjiu couldn’t help but feel curious.
Perhaps she might even find out tomorrow that her own brother knew Qi Xiaoran’s brother.
After all, two people who belonged to the same faculty should have heard of each other?
Looking at Qi Xiaoran’s manner, Gu Qingjiu had a feeling that her older brother wouldn’t be too bad.
